Let's Play Golf



Arthur is 90 years old. He's played golf every day since his retirement 25 years ago. One day he arrives home looking downcast.

"That's it," he tells his wife. "I'm giving up golf. My eyesight has gotten so bad that once I've hit the ball I couldn't see where it went."

His wife sympathizes and makes him a cup of tea. As they sit down she says, "Why don't you take my brother with you and give it one more try."

"That's no good" sighs Arthur, "your brother's a hundred and three. He can't help."

"He may be a hundred and three," says the wife, "but his eyesight is perfect"

So the next day Arthur heads off to the golf course with his brother-in-law. He tees up, takes an almighty swing and squints down the fairway.

He turns to the brother-in-law. "Did you see the ball?"

"Of course I did!" replied the brother-in-law. "I have perfect eyesight."

"Where did it go?" says Arthur.

"I don't remember."

Wise Man

Young Chuck, moved to Texas and bought a donkey from a farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. The next day he drove up and said, 'Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the donkey died.' Chuck replied, 'Well, then,just give me my money back.' The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I went and spent it already.' Chuck said, 'Ok, then, just bring me the dead donkey.'

The farmer asked, 'What ya gonna do with him? Chuck said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.' The farmer said, 'You can't raffle off a dead donkey!' Chuck said, 'Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.' A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, 'What happened with that dead donkey?' Chuck sa id, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $898.00.' The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?' Chuck said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back.' Chuck grew up and now works for the government.

What Kind of Change is America Looking For?

This is too humorous to not share! I think it's very clever, considering the predictions swirling around this presidential hopeful--that he'll raise taxes, and will send our economy into a tailspin downward. I am not educated enough to be prepared to vote in November--so, I am not going to be use this posting as a way of opposing Obama...yet. I am going to need to do more research on his beliefs, ideas, plans, and message points, before November. I only have seen and heard what the media is saying, and that is not enough for me to make a decision.

Although, I'm fairly certain he's got some ideas and plans that are going to be deal breakers for me--especially those regarding homosexual marriage, and abortion. McCain seems to be staying behind-the-scenes. That concerns me, but I'm sure he has a plan of some sort.

Enjoy the following cartoon--for laughs!
