OMG....you mean I am missing out on joke mail??? How did that happen??
A sales rep, an administration clerk and the manager are walking to lunch
when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out in a
puff of smoke. The Genie says, "I usually only grant three wishes, so I'll
give each of you just one."
"Me first! Me first!" says the admin clerk."I want to be in the Bahamas,
driving a speedboat, without a care in the world." Poof! She's gone.
In astonishment, "Me next! Me next!" says the sales rep. "I want to be in
Hawaii, relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply
of pina coladas and the love of my life." Poof! He's gone.
"OK, you're up," the Genie says to the manager.
The manager says, "I want those two back in the office after lunch."
MORAL OF THE STORY: always let your boss have the first say.
ok, so you didn't like that one. How about this one?
A man and his wife, now in their 60's, were celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary.
On their special day a good fairy came to them and
said that because they had been such a devoted couple, she would grant each of them a very special wish.
The wife wished for a trip around the world with her husband.
Whoosh! Immediately she had airline/cruise tickets in her hands.
The man wished for a female companion 30 years younger.......
Whoosh....immediately he turned ninety!!!
Gotta love that fairy!

The Parrot
A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity.
John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder.
John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed.
Then suddenly there was total quiet.
Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions.
I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."
John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude.
As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Seems we are getting Thanksgiving early......thanks everyone.
Hurry back Shirl, hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!
I'm rolling on the floor laughing at those jokes. If you could see that picture, you would laugh even harder. LOL
LOL Deb! A great one! I read it to my parrot and told him he better be good! LOL
Uh oh....I missed this thread last night! And I already miss Brugie! Hope it's fixed soon for you Shirley & you're back here in a flash!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
Brinda :)
A little girl asked her mother, "Can I go outside and play with the boys?"
Her mother replied, "No, you can't play with the boys, they're too rough."
The little girl thought about it for a few moments and asked, "If I can find a smooth one, can I play with him?"
Talked to Shirley this morning. Yes...I do believe she is having withdrawl symptoms already. I mentioned to her that she will have a lot of reading to do once she is able to return to this thread. She really does miss all of you and wishes everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Me too! :)
Poor thing needs a nice next-door neighbor!
THE TIGHT DRESS
In a crowded city at a busy bus stop, a beautiful young woman who was waiting for a bus was wearing a tight mini skirt.
As the bus stopped and it was her turn to get on, she became aware that her skirt was too tight to allow her leg to come up to the height of the first step of the bus.
Slightly embarrassed and with a quick smile to the bus driver, she reached behind her to unzip her skirt a little, thinking that this would give her enough slack to raise her leg. Again, she tried to make the step only to discover she still couldn't.
So, a little more embarrassed, she once again reached behind her to unzip her skirt a little more, and for the second time attempted the step, and, once again, much to her chagrin, she could not raise her leg.
With a little smile to the driver, she again reached behind to unzip a little more and again was unable to make the step. About this time, a large Texan who was standing behind her picked her up easily by the waist and placed her gently on the step of the bus.
She went ballistic and turned to the would-be Samaritan and yelled,
"How dare you touch my body! I don't even know who you are!"
The Texan smiled and drawled,
"Well, ma'am, normally I would agree with you, but after you unzipped my fly three times,
I kinda figured we was friends.
Hey everyone....I'm back. I don't know for how long, but I couldn't stand not having my computer so I went to one of our local PC places and asked if she had a modem for my puter. It is under warranty and there is a modem in the mail, but geez, how long could I take being away from here. Evidently not very long. Gloria, my PC lady fixed me up. I came home with the modem, put it in, thought everything was fine, but it still wouldn't work. So I took the tower to Gloria and after messing with it an hour and a half and still couldn't connect, she called my server to find out that when my modem did it's thing, it evidently kept me hooked up all night and they thought that was unusal activity for me, so they disconnected me there. Gosh, what a mess. So, after about 5 or 10 minutes we tried it again, and it worked, so I drug the thing home and hooked it up and my email wouldn't work. Messed with that a while and knock on wood, it is going to work for me. However, very soon I'll be hooking up to high speed where I can stay online 24/7 and not have to worry about it. Thanks for all the wishes. The jokes were good too. Now, just cross your fingers that this modem won't crash and burn in the first 24 hours of life. Thanks again. It is sooooo good to be back.
Welcome back Shirley, we missed you. Could you tell?
Yeah Liz, there was a whole lot of talking going on here. I'm still trying to get caught up. It is always nice to be missed. Sure is no fun being on this end without a computer though. I watched a whole evening of TV last night for the first time in about 5 years.
Welcome back Brugie. It sure is not fun without a computer even if you don't want to get online. Just knowing it's there and you can when you want to. But of course if it's there you want to. lol
Yaaaay ! Brugie Back..Doin' the Happy Dance
&:^D
glad you're back sweetie!
Welcome back and Happy Thanksgiving.
God Bless
Sandy
Thanks. This is the happiest I've been since Sunday evening when everything turned sour, really sour. I had been given some hints that it was going to happen, but had to wait until it did. I'm back in my element now!! Yay!!
Hey! Glad to have you back...see all Gloria's are nice, right? Smart too?
Welcome back Brugie!! Glad to see the DG I.V. is hooked back up!

It is sure is good to have you back on that old computer, and I know you're glad to be back. There certainly isn't much to watch on tv these days.
Welcome back,
Your dreams were your ticket out.
Welcome back,

Well the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.
