This is one of the most challenging e-mails that I have ever received! HAVE FUN WITH IT!!!!
It will drive you crazy!

Tom had won a toy at a raffle. He called his 5 kids together to ask which one should have the present. "Who is the most obedient?" he asked. The children all stared back in silence. Then he asked, "Who never talks back to mother?" Again, the kids appeared to be mystified by the question. Then Tom asked, "Who does everything she says?" With that question, the kids finally able to come to a conclusion - the five small voices answered in unison, "Okay, dad, you get the toy."
MY RESUME...
My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned ... couldn't concentrate.
Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the ax.
After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it ... mainly because it was a so-so job.
Next I tried working in a muffler factory but that was too exhausting.
Then I tried to be a chef -- figured it would add a little spice too my life but I just didn't have the thyme.
I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn't cut the mustard.
My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy.
I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn't have any patience.
Next was a job in a shoe factory; I tried but I just didn't fit in.
I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income.
I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.
So then I got a job in a workout center, but they said I wasn't fit for the job.
After many years of trying to find steady work I finally got a job as a historian until I realized there was no future in it.
My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.
SO I RETIRED, AND I FOUND I AM PERFECT FOR THE JOB!

A SAD EVENT
It is with the saddest heart that we must pass on the following news. Please
join us in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community.
The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and complications
from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities
turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Buttersworth, Hungry Jack,
the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain
Crunch. The gravesite was piled high with flours.
Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man
who never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show
business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not
considered a very 'smart' cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked
schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times he still, as a crusty old man
was considered a roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough; two children, John Dough and
Jane Dough; plus they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his
elderly dad, Pop Tart. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes
WOW! A month. Don't try to rush your recoup. and go out in the public all you need is to catch a cold, flu, or some alergy and it will be a whole new game.
In the mean time what is your opinion on the QQQs;
http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=qqq,uu[h,a]daclyyay[pb20!b50!f][vc60]&pref=G
Tis the weekend....thought I would share some levity that was sent to me.
1. Andy Rooney on Monica.
Can you believe it? Monica turned 28 this week. It seems like only
yesterday that she was crawling round the White House on her hands and
knees.
2. Andy Rooney on Vegetarians.
Vegetarian - that's an old Indian word meaning "lousy hunter."
3. Andy Rooney on Prisoners.
Did you know that it costs forty-thousand dollars a year to house each
prisoner? Jeez, for forty-thousand bucks apiece I'll take a few prisoners
into my house. I live in Los Angeles. I already have bars on the
windows.
I don't think we should give free room and board to criminals. I think
they should have to run twelve hours a day on a
treadmill and generate electricity. And, if they don't want to run,
they can rest in the chair that's hooked up to the generator.
4. Andy Rooney on Fabric Softeners.
My wife uses fabric softener. I never knew what that stuff was for. Then
I noticed women coming up to me, sniffing, then saying under their breath,
"Married!" and walking away. Fabric softeners are how our wives mark
their territory. We can take off the ring. But, it's hard to get that April
Fresh scent out of your clothes.
5. Andy Rooney on Morning Differences.
Men and women are different in the morning. We men wake up aroused in
the morning. We can't help it. We just wake up and we want you. And the
women are thinking, "How can he want me the way I look in the morning?"
It's because we can't see you. We have no blood anywhere near our optic nerve.
6. Andy Rooney on Phone-In-Polls.
You know those shows where people call in and vote on different issues?
Did you ever notice there's always like 18% that say "I don't know," It costs
90 cents to call up and vote and they're voting "I don't know." Give me the
phone. (Says into the phone) "I DON'T KNOW!" (Hangs up looking proud.)
"Sometimes you have to stand up for what you believe you're not sure
about."
This guy probably calls up phone sex girls for $2.95 to say, "I'm not in
the mood."
7. Andy Rooney on Cripes
My wife's from the Midwest. Very nice people there. Very wholesome. They
use words like 'Cripes' 'For Cripes sake,' Who would that be; Jesus
Cripes? The son of 'Gosh' of the church of 'Holy Moly'? I'm not making
fun of it. You think I wanna burn in 'Heck'?
8. Andy Rooney on Grandma
I know a grandmother who has a bumper sticker on her car that says, 'Sexy
Senior Citizen.' You don't want to think of your grandmother that way, do
you? Out entering wet shawl contests. Makes you wonder where she got that
dollar she gave you for your birthday.
9. Andy Rooney on Answering Machine Greetings
Did you ever hear one of these corny positive greetings on someone's
answering machine? "Hi, it's a great day and I'm out enjoying it right
now.
I hope you are too. Think Positive! The thought for the day is: Share
the love." BEEP "Uh, yeah...this is the VD clinic calling....Speaking of
being positive, your test results are back. Stop sharing the love.

I have to agree with you and it seems the girls are the worst with the language, trying to out do each other.

Few stocks to watchlist for next week;
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thunderdomestockclub/message/3971

I had a drug problem when I was young:
I was drug to church on Sunday morning.
I was drug to church for wedding and funerals.
I was drug to family reunions no matter the weather.
I was drug to the bus stop to go to school every weekday.
I was drug by my ears when I was disrespectful to adults and
teachers..
I was also drug to the woodshed when I disobeyed my parents.
Those drugs are still in my veins; and they affect my behavior in
everything I do, say, and think. They are stronger than cocaine,
crack, or heroin, and if today's children had this kind of drug
problem, America might be a better place.

Thanks for the emails, been a weird week, I keep spinning my wheels with everything I been doing lately, so I keep to myself until it runs its course. Feels like a two week full moon.
Damn, I'm starting to sound like Fred8. lol
The next time you hear a politician use the words billion" casually, think about whether you want that politician spending your tax money. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into perspective in one of its releases:
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the rate Washington spends it.

HAVING A BAD DAY ??
In a hospital's Intensive Care ward, patients always died in the same bed, on Sunday morning, at about 11 am, regardless of their medical condition. This puzzled the doctors and some even thought it had something to do with the supernatural. No one could solve the mystery as to why the deaths occurred
around 11 am on Sunday, so a worldwide team of experts was assembled to investigate the cause of the incidents.
The next Sunday morning, a few minutes before 11AM, doctors and nurses nervously waited outside the ward to see for themselves what the terrible phenomenon was all about. Some were holding wooden crosses, prayer books and other holy objects to ward off the evil spirits. Just when the clock struck 11, Pookie Johnson, the part-time Sunday sweeper, entered the ward and unplugged the life support system so he could use the vacuum cleaner.
Having a Bad Day?
-------------------------------------
The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the Exxon Valdez Oil spill in Alaska was $80,000. At a special ceremony, two of the most expensively saved animals were being released back into the wild amid cheers and applause from onlookers. A minute later, in full view, a killer whale ate them both.
Still think you are having a bad day?
-----------------------------------------
A woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen shaking frantically, almost in a dancing frenzy, with some kind of wire running from his waist towards the electric kettle. Intending to jolt him away from the deadly current, she whacked him with a handy plank of wood, breaking his arm in two places.
Up to that moment, he had been happily listening to his Walkman.
STILL think you're having a bad day?
--------------------------------------
Two animal rights defenders were protesting the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn, Germany. Suddenly, all two thousand pigs broke loose and escaped through a broken fence, stampeding madly. The two hopeless protesters were trampled to death.
What? STILL having a bad day?
------------------------------
Iraqi terrorist Khay Rahnajet didn't pay enough postage on a letter bomb. It came back with "return to sender" stamped on it. Forgetting it was the bomb, he opened it and was blown to bits.
There now, feeling better?
this chuckle from MyJokeMail.com - enjoy:
A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students.
The teacher asked, "Harry, what is your problem?"
Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!"
Ms. Brooks had had enough. She took Harry to the principal's office. While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was.
The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed.
Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Harry: "9".
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Harry: "36".
And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd grader should know. The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, "I think Harry can go to the 3rd grade."
Ms. Brooks says to the principal, "Let me ask him some questions."
The principal and Harry both agreed. Ms. Brooks asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?"
Harry, after a moment: "Legs."
Ms. Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?" The principal wondered, why does she ask such a question!
Harry replied: "Pockets."
Ms. Brooks: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Harry: "Pants".
Ms. Brooks: "What's starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?"
Harry: "Coconut".
Ms. Brooks: "What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?"
The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer, Harry: "Bubble gum".
Ms. Brooks: "What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting down and a dog do on three legs?" The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer.
Harry: "Shake hands".
Ms. Brooks: "What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of heat and excitement?"
Harry: "Firetruck".
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, "Put Harry in the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong."
Constitution Rewritten
The following has been attributed to State Representative Mitchell
Kaye from GA. The guy should run for President.....
"We, the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help
everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any
more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and
secure
the blessings of debt free liberty to ourselves and our
great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain
and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny,
guilt-ridden, delusional and other liberal bed-wetters. We hold
these truths to be self-evident: that a whole lot of people are
confused
by the Bill of Rights and are so dim that they require a Bill of No
Rights."
ARTICLE I:
You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any other
form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them,
but no one is guaranteeing anything.
ARTICLE II:
You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is
based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just
you!
You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different
opinion, etc.,
but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be ...
and like the rest of us you need to simply deal with it.
ARTICLE III:
You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a
screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the
tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently
wealthy.
ARTICLE IV:
You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are
the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone
in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation
after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing
more
than the creation of another generation of professional couch
potatoes.
ARTICLE V:
You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice,
but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in
public health care.
ARTICLE VI:
You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you
kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be
surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric
chair.
ARTICLE VII:
You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob,
cheat or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't
be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a
place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color
TV, pool tables, weight rooms or a life of leisure.
ARTICLE VIII:
You don't have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have
a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect
you to take advantage of the opportunities of part time jobs,
education
and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.
ARTICLE IX:
You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means
that you have the right to PURSUE happiness --which by the way, is a
lot
easier if you are unencumbered by an overabundance of idiotic laws
created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights,"
ARTICLE X:
This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are
from. We welcome you here.. English is our language and like the
one you left behind, we also have a culture. Learn it or go back to
the
country and the living conditions you were fleeing.
If you agree, share this with a friend. No, you don't have to, and
nothing tragic will befall you if you don't. I just think it is
about time common sense is allowed to flourish -- just call it
"The Age of Reason Revisited".
