Good morning crew,

I'm committed now. The wife has one more dance class (a group class this time) and she has convinced the dance instructor to let me attend just this one class for the group rate. She is very excited about it, especially now that she knows my foot is back in working order.

But I could get lucky. There is promotion testing at the taekwondo school this weekend and I could reinjure it.

Laugh it up,

Joe

"A new study found that married couples who go on double dates with other couples are more likely to have better relationships. They say it inspires better communication - on the ride home, when you talk about how much you hated the other couple." -Jimmy Fallon

An American scientist once visited the offices of the great Nobel Prize-winning physicist, Neils Bohr, in Copenhagen, and was amazed to find that over his desk a horseshoe was nailed to the wall.

The American said with a nervous laugh, "Surely you don't believe that horseshoe will bring you good luck, do you, Professor Bohr?"

Bohr chuckled. "I believe no such thing, my good friend. Not at all. I am scarcely likely to believe in such foolish nonsense. However, I am told that a horseshoe will bring you good luck whether you believe in it or not!"

My friend asked his father-in-law, a crop duster, how his day had gone.

"I had just the worst day," replied the man. "This morning I was up in my plane dusting a field when I nicked a power line and damaged the wing on the plane. When I got back to the office, my boss chewed me out. Then the guy from the FAA chewed me out.

"On my way home, I stopped at a bar and was handed a warm beer. So I yelled at the bartender, 'Don't you have any cold beer?!'

"The bartender said, 'Sorry, but we've been out of electricity all day ever since some idiot crop-duster hit a power line down the road.'"
