"New sign coming soon to the Hwy 21 exit ramp on I-95..."

 
Well, it's another Daisy Belle's issue of The Spirit. I don't know why I'm even bothering to write a column this week. According to Allison, nobody'll be reading this.....

...Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend! Pretty tough getting back to work Tuesday though, especially when Tuesday's your deadline!

... A lawyer and a blonde woman are sitting next to each? other on a long flight. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game. The blonde is tired and just wants? to take a nap, so she politely declines and tries to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists, saying that the game is a lot of fun. "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me only $5; you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500."
This catches the blonde's attention; and, to keep him quiet, she agrees to play the game. The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?" The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.
Now, it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer, "What? goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?"
The lawyer uses his laptop, searches all references. He uses the airphone; he searches the net and even the Library of Congress. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows, all to no avail.
After one hour of searching he finally gives up. He wakes up the blonde and hands her $500. The blonde takes the $500 and goes back to sleep.
The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes her up and asks, "Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"
The blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5 and goes back to sleep.

...Things I learned while
reading about other things...
  • A Catholic priest in Wisconsin has fired the church?s organist/choir director, noting that her ?sale of sex toys was not consistent with Church teachings.?
  • Only in California... Two brothers have been charged with Grand Theft after convincing people they were faith healers, and that their clients were ?cursed? and could only be healed by buying an expensive cleansing ritual. Their story came to light after rumors of a man spending $10,000 to have his little girl heal were found to be true!
  • An Albuquerque man has been arrested for his 28th DUI. Deputies spotted the man when he parked, then got out of his truck and fell on his face. He plead not guilty even though he was too intoxicated to complete his field sobriety tests.

...Time for some Cruel and Unusual Pun-ishment...
Back in the 1800's, the Tates Watch Company of Massachusetts wanted to produce other products and, since they already made the cases for watches, they used them to produce compasses. The new compasses were so bad that people often ended up in Canada or Mexico rather than
California. This, of course, is the origin of the expression, "He who has a Tates is lost!"

...Take care this week, stay safe, and in the words of the great Red Skelton, "May God Bless."
