New Lexus – Lebanon vs. Israel

August 16, 2006

I just got my new Lexus RX400H car but had to return to the dealer the next day complaining that I couldn’t figure out how the radio worked. 

The salesman explained that the radio was voice activated. “Watch this,” he said: “Nelson!” The Radio replied “Ricky or Willie?” “Willie!” He continued, and “On the Road Again” came from the speakers.

 I drove away happy, and for the next few days, every time I’d say “Beethoven” I’d get beautiful classical music, and if I said “Beatles” I’d get one of their awesome songs.

 One day, a couple ran a red light and nearly creamed my new car, but I swerved in time to avoid them. I yelled “ASSHOLES!”

16 Things that it took me over 50 years to learn

May 16, 2006

16 Things that it took me over 50 years to learn:
      by Dave Barry, Nationally Syndicated Columnist

1. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a
  laxative on the same night.
2. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human
  race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential,
  that word would be "meetings."
3. There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
4. People who want to share their religious views with you almost
  never want you to share yours with them.
5. You should not confuse your career with your life.
6. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
  (I wish I had!)
7. Never lick a steak knife. 
8. The most destructive force in the universe is gossip.
9. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and
  compelling reason why we observe daylight savings time.
10. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely
  suggests that you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual
baby emerging from her at that moment.
11. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people
  to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age 21.
12. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age,
  gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that,
  deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above average drivers.
13. A person, who is nice to you, but rude to a waiter, is not a
  nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention. It never
  fails.)
14. Your friends love you anyway.
15. Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone
  amateur built the Ark. A large group of professionals built the
Titanic.
16. Thought for the day: Men are like fine wine . They start out
  as grapes, and it's up to the women to stomp the crap out of them
  until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

FINAL THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: There is more money being spent on
  breast implants and Viagra than on Alzheimer's research. This means
that by 2030, there should be a large elderly population with perky
  boobs and huge erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them

Living in 2006

May 10, 2006

YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2006 when…

1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.

7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.

8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.

11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile.

12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.


13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

14. You are too busy to notice that there was no #9 on this list.

15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list

AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.


Phone Call

April 28, 2006

(((RING))))
 

**Pick Up**

 

"Hello?"

 

"Hi honey, this is Daddy, Is Mommy near the phone?"

 

"No Daddy, She's upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Paul"

 

After a brief pause, Daddy says, "But honey, you haven't got an

Uncle Paul "

 

 

"Oh yes I do, and he's upstairs in the room with Mommy, right now"

 

Brief Pause

 

"Uh, okay then, ..this is what I want you to do. Put the phone down

on the table, run upstairs and knock on the bedroom door, and shout

to Mommy that Daddy's car just pulled into the driveway"

 

"Okay Daddy, just a minute"

 

A few minutes later the little girl comes back to the phone.

 

"I did it Daddy"

 

"And what happened honey?" he asked

 

"Well, Mommy got all scared, jumped out of bed with no clothes on

and ran around screaming. Then she tripped over the rug, hit her

head on the dresser and now she isn't moving at all!"

 

"Oh my God!!! What about your Uncle Paul?"

 

"He jumped out of the bed with no clothes on too. He was all scared

and he jumped out of the back window and into the swimming pool.

But I guess he didn't know that you took out the water last week to

clean it. he hit the bottom of the pool and I think he's dead"

 

 

 

***Long Pause***

 

 

 

 

 

***Longer Pause**

 

 

Then Daddy says, "Swimming pool??… Is this 486-5731?"
