Good morning crew,

Well, the wife did not break her foot doing board breaking during her promotion test Thursday night, and we did go to the Cadillac Ranch with a group of people for country line dancing, although I probably should not have gone. Friday I developed a nasty sore throat and a sniffle (which is still hanging grimly on today) and I probably should have stayed home wrapped up in blankets, but she guilt-tripped me into going.

I'm afraid I didn't do much dancing (or I should say I didn't do much dancing because I was afraid), I was too busy making medicinal applications of whiskey to my sore throat.

Laugh it up,

Joe

"Because President Obama and Mitt Romney went way over their time limits, they put safety measures in place for this debate to make sure it didn't happen again. I think they got this idea from award shows. Biden didn't even have time to thank his agent." --Jimmy Kimmel

One of my customers at the department of motor vehicles wanted a personalized license plate with his wedding anniversary on it. As we completed the paperwork he explained, "This way I can't forget the date."

A few hours later, I recognized the same young man waiting in my line. When his turn came, he said somewhat sheepishly, "I need to change the numbers on that plate application."


*-------------- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes --------------*
In the small, family-owned store in Spokane, Washington where I work, we often get folks from out of town whose idioms are a little different from our own. One day, after parking her car across the street in an attended lot, a young woman came in. She made her purchase and then asked, "Do you give validation?"

Without batting an eye, my manager replied, "You are an excellent, successful person, and I love your hair."
