Good morning crew,
Today is what is popularly known as "Fat Tuesday." I keep
forgetting about this every year because it isn't really
a holiday. Fat Tuesday is Mardi Gras, the festival New
Orleans, Louisiana, is famous for. "Gras" is French for
fat and "Mardi" is French for Tuesday.
It is something of a "last call" before the expected
reflection and abstinence of the Christian Lenten season.
In other words, it's an excuse for everybody, no matter
what their religion, to go out, over-indulge and make
idiots of themselves.
This is invariably followed by "Hung Over Wednesday."
Laugh it up,
Joe

possible to catch the flu from money. They say the virus
can live on a $20 bill for more than 10 days. So, not only
is the virus contagious, it's also very frugal." --Jay Leno

The young man ahead of my father at the flower shop was
taking an unusually long time to place his order.
When the clerk asked how she could help, he explained that
his girlfriend was turning 19 and he couldn't decide whether
to give her a dozen roses or 19 roses -- one for each year
of her life.
The woman put aside her business judgment and advised,
"She may be your 19-year-old girlfriend now, but someday
she could be your 50-year-old wife."
The young man bought a dozen roses.

A man pacing back and forth glanced at his watch and yelled
upstairs to his wife, "Honey, are you ready yet?"
Shouting back, the woman replies, "For crying out loud, Ed,
I've been telling you for the last half hour...I'll be ready
in a minute!"
