  3. A man's and his wife get into a serious car accident ...the wife dies and goes to heaven. At the pearly gates St. Peter says "Why should we let you into heaven?" The wife says "well, I've alway been a good person". St. Peter says....well we have to give you a test.....spell "LOVE"" The wife sasy "L-O-V-E" and the pearly gates swing open. St. Peter says, "listen, I really need a break here....could you take over for a few minutes?...if anyone shows up, just ask them why they should come into heaven and give them a little test" Wouldn't you know it....in a few minutes the husband sucumbed to his injurys and ends up standing in front of the pearly gates. His wife says "Why should we let you into heaven?" The husband replies " Well, you know we have had our differences...but I AM basically a good person" The wife says....OK....you just have to spell a word and you can get in....so spell Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
  4. How on earth did you avoid all the paint ending up on you, the ceiling and everywhere else? It's not like you could control the flow when you punch a hole in it with a can opener????? Inquiring minds want to know!
  5. You pay a lot extra for it.... but it is much more slimming than regualr water!
  6. Not to worry....I was wrong ONCE! at least I though I was...but I was miststeaken
  7. Gary, are you sure the pictures you posted are not just of different years? I have an 83 Royale....dash is just like the pic on the left. I also have an 84 Standard... and is exactly like that pictured on the right.
  8. Just my Many people would not mark up a Bible...as if it is something special. My Bible is marked up with highlighter, notes in the margins and along the bottom of the pages . in the end, it is just a book....the most special book in all creation...but still just paper and ink. and when this one wears out, it will be recycled, or burned, and replaced with another printing of the same book. It is important only all the wonderful things it teaches and REPRESENTS, not for the material it is made with. In the same vein, although I appreciate that a flag from any nation REPRESENTS many great things, and invokes many deep emotions, in the end, it is a piece of cloth. A lot of people may have "died for the flag"...but more correctly, they died for what that flag represents. If it was something special...like the flag from the twin towers or something then I could see it being an issue. My point is it should not be a big issue to dispose of an old and destroyed flag. Just burn it. (but don't do it publicaly! LOL) Again...not to raise the ire of anyone...just my 2 cents
  9. I figured it was just some dim witted "extra" in an low budget old movie remake. Like having a wrist watch on the gun slinger ....or seeing a jet trail over the prarie in a Western.
  10. Took the words right out of my mouth! And believe me...it was more than a mouthful! NEVER MIND!!!!!!!
  11. Don't you just love a happy ending! kind of makes you want to tear up and just sit on the couch and eat ice cream doesn't it!

    I spend a lot of time in the ministry...but THUMPER was taken.....so I went with Trader....which is what I did when I had my business.
  14. I've been off them for almost 20 years....but you never really get over it. it was probably 15 years after quitting that one day, as I was driving my car I patted my shirt pocket as if I was feeling for the pack of smokes! It was crazy! I still have a dream once in awhile that I am smoking in.
  15. :sign yeah that::sign yeah that: ours are both like that. Both are Pom Crosses......Pom with Chihuahua and Pom with Pappion. People wonder what the wet stinky rag is....not knowing its the remains from some stuffed toy.
  16. Opened OK for me....probably couldn't open it because it needs a newer version of MSWord (filename.docx) Anyway...sounded like a nice vacation....good to share fun times with family. Enjoy it when you can...it doesn't come arouond often enough.
  17. How many times have we discussed those "dumb cager" when bikes are involved. It often is a 2 way street!
  18. Check this out! Pretty amazing. Next is the Stepford Wives! http://www.flixxy.com/singing-and-dancing-robot.htm
  19. This two-letter word in English has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that word is 'UP.' It is listed in the dictionary as an [adv], [prep], [adj], [n] or [v]. It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP? At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP, and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report? We call UP our friends, brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and fix UP the old car. At other times this little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, lineUP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special. And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP. We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night. We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP ! To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look UP the word UP in the dictionary.. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4 of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more. When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP . When the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP. When it rains, it soaks UP the earth. When it does not rain for awhile, things dry UP. One could go on & on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now ........my time is UP ! Oh....one more thing: What is the first thing you do in the morning & the last thing you do at night? U P ! Did that one crack you UP? Don't screw UP. Send this on to everyone you look UP in your address book..or not...it's UP to you. Now I'll shut UP

    Don't feel bad, Revenue Canada (Same as IRS) LOST my receipts I sent in to them. I have the name of the person who signed for them...but the guy said "I don't know who that is" So what I got was "call back in 2 weeks and we'll put a trace on it." So here it is....almost Novemeber and I'm still waiting for a $1000 rebate from my 2009 tax return!
  21. Keep that up and you'll end up with a scooter. (they DO shrink... right?)
  22. In Ontario, bicycle helmets are manditory for kids under 14. (while riding bicycles...just to be clear) We also have a manditory seat belt law for our cars/trucks. I"m not sure....but I was told there was a law against driving a car barefoot I wouldn't object to a minimum safety standard such as helmet, shoes or boots and some type of protective jacket. I have ridden in T-shirt and jeans....not often...but on super hot days out in the country....I wouldn't ever in town or on a major highway!
  23. I would think that the most graphic was the "anniversary sex" joke. I thought they were cute...but if I offended ANYONE please accept my appologies! I would never intentionally do so. Just trying to bring a smile to all those MISERABLE faces I saw on "A Face to the Name" thread!" Oops....there I go again!
  24. You must know that some dark sider will pipe up suggesting you must have been riding it ..... with too much air pressure with not enough air pressure mounted directionally the wrong way or some other reason ....because who would ever consider that a CAR tire wouldn't be ideal for a bike? DUH! :rasberry: .....wait for it!
  25. It's OK Al, If you want to ride a Harley, along with all those doctors, accountants and weekend warriors....:whistling:what business is it of ours? Any negative comments are just out of envy anyway! Just enjoy it....and buy a bag of dry-rite just in case. "its not a question of IF it leaks...rather WHEN it will leak!"
