Good morning crew,

The wife made me breakfast on Sunday, around one in the afternoon, a sort of scrambled Eggs Florentine with spinach and cream cheese along with a fried ham steak, toast and coffee.

It was quite delicious, actually.

As we were sitting at the kitchen table about to indulge I looked out onto the balcony where my jalapeno plants are still determinedly producing peppers and realized a couple jalapenos would be just the thing to complement the meal.

30 seconds later I was slicing them up on my plate and it occurred to me what a pleasure it was to be able to eat produce fresh off my own plants. Of course, I am restricted by the fifty square feet of my balcony, but if I had a house with a nice, big yard I could see cultivating half an acre of various vegetables; zucchini, cucumbers, tomatoes, a half dozen varieties of peppers, radishes, green onions, squash, and as long as I'm at it, a few dozen hens would provide a nice steady stream of fresh eggs, I'm thinking.

And with a wife to tend it all I think I could pull that off.

Laugh it up,

Joe

Needing to look up a phone number while at a friend's house, my teenage daughter asked for a phone book. She might as well have asked for a papyrus scroll.

"A phone book?" asked her friend.

"You know," said my daughter. "A book with numbers in it."

"Oh," said her friend as it dawned on her. "You mean a math book."

A wife asked her husband, "Honey, could you please run to the store and get a carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get a dozen."

A while later the husband returned with a case of quart milk cartons.

Staring incredulously at the 12-pack case of milk, his wife asked, "Why the hell did you buy so much milk?"

Her husband said, "They had eggs."
