BUBBLE BURST


It is 8:20 a.m. and it looks like I have to change my password to google every frickin day to be able to get here. What a hassle! Sort of ridiculous, eh? Patrick got up with me as is his wont and promptly went back to bed with Junior. It is 17 degrees F. and 30 degrees higher than that in Spring Hill, Florida.



Dirty Harry is back, but now he's 78! Gran Torino. Go see it. Lot's of American Flags.



later.

Fw: Getting Older in Florida‏

Two elderly ladies are sitting on the front porch in Bonita Springs ,
doing nothing.

One lady turns and asks, "Do you still get horny?"

The other replies, "Oh sure I do."

The first old lady asks, "What do you do about it?"

The second old lady replies, "I suck a lifesaver."

After a few moments, the first old lady asks, "Who drives you to the
beach?"

**********************************************************
Three old ladies were sitting side by side in their retirement home in
Ft. Lauderdale reminiscing.

The first lady recalled shopping at the green grocers and demonstrated
with her hands, the length and thickness of a cucumber she could buy for
a penny.

The second old lady nodded, adding that onions used to be much bigger
and cheaper also, and demonstrated the size of two big onions she could
buy for a penny a piece.

The third old lady remarked, "I can't hear a word you're saying, but I
remember the guy you're talking about."

********************************************************
A little old lady was sitting on a park bench in The Villages, a Florida
Adult community.

A man walked over and sat down on the other end of the bench. After a
few moments, the woman asked, "Are you a stranger here?"

He replied, "I lived here years ago."

"So, where were you all these years?"

"In prison," he said.

"Why did they put you in prison?"

He looked at her, and very quietly said, "I killed my wife."

"Oh!" said the woman. "So you're single...?!"

**********************************************************
Two elderly people living in Ft. Myers , he was a widower and she a
widow, had known each other for a number of years. One evening there was
a community supper in the big arena in the Clubhouse.

The two were at the same table, across from one another. As the meal
went on, he took a few admiring glances at her and finally gathered the
courage to ask her, "Will you marry me?"

After about six seconds of "careful consideration," she answered "Yes.
Yes, I will!"

The meal ended and, with a few more pleasant exchanges, they went to
their respective places.

Next morning, he was troubled. "Did she say 'yes' or did she say 'no'?"

He couldn't remember. Try as he might, he just could not recall. Not
even a faint memory. With trepidation, he went to the telephone and
called her.

First, he explained that he didn't remember as well as he used to. Then
he reviewed the lovely evening past.

As he gained a little more courage, he inquired, "When I asked if you
would marry me, did you say ' Yes' or did you say 'No'?"

He was delighted to hear her say, "Why, I said, 'Yes, yes I will' and I
meant it with all my heart." Then she continued,

"And I am so glad that you called, because I couldn't remember who had
asked me."

A man was telling his neighbor in Miami , "I just bought a new hearing
aid. It cost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art. It's
perfect."

"Really," answered the neighbor. "What kind is it?"

"Twelve thirty."

Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor in Estero to get a
physical. A few days later the doctor saw Morris walking down the street
with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.

A couple of days later the doctor spoke to Morris and said, "You're
really doing great, aren't you?"

"Just doing what you said, Doc : 'Get a hot mamma and be cheerful,'"
Morris replied.

To which doctor said, "I didn't say that, Morris. I said, 'You've got a
heart murmur, be careful! '"

A little old man shuffled slowly into the " Orange Dipper," an ice cream
parlor in Naples , and pulled himself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool.

After catching his breath he ordered a banana split.

The waitress asked kindly, "Crushed nuts?"

"No," he replied, "hemorrhoids."



Life is
short!
Break the rules!
Forgive quickly!

Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably..
And never regret
anything that made you smile

The best things in life are free until the government finds out and
taxes it.
"Happiness comes from doors you did not know you left open."



FROM THE PATRIOT POST:



LIBERTY

"President Obama can be forgiven for celebrating the hypocrisy of Abraham Lincoln because the victors of wars write their history and glorify the winners. The recognition that slavery is a despicable institution does not require hero worship of a president who made the largest contribution to the unraveling of our Constitution. After all when it is settled by brute force that states cannot secede, as they thought they had the right to in 1787, then the federal government can ride roughshod over states and their people's right -- in a word make meaningless the Ninth and Tenth Amendments." --George Mason University economics professor Walter E. Williams

a little over the top--in real life, the characters would use two or three--not have the wide vocabulary of a dozen names for each group...
