Good Morning, !
Today is Monday, July 21.
OK, for all those who asked for a picture of me at the
waterfall, not just some silly little tree, here is one
from shortly before I did my canyon edge dance.
Have FUN!

The secret of all success is to know how to deny yourself.
Prove that you can control yourself, and you are an educated
man; and without this all other education is good for nothing.
--- R. D. Hitchcock
Walking is the best possible exercise.
Habituate yourself to walk very far.
--- Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826)
OK, OK, I AM walking every day for about an hour,
and even taking Barb's family dog for a walk.

I wasn't surprised when a friend of my daughter showed me a
Japanese symbol on her hip. "Please don't tell my parents,"
she begged.
"I won't," I promised. "By the way, what does that stand for?"
She replied, "Honesty."

Don't Try This At Home!
A formula for inner peace...please read completely:
I am passing this on to you because it definitely worked
for me and we all could use more calm in our lives. By
following the simple advice I heard on a Dr. Phil show,
I have finally found inner peace. On the show, Dr. Phil
proclaimed:
"The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the
things you've started."
So I looked around my house to see all the things I started
and hadn't finished and before leaving the house this morning,
I finished off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of White Zinfandel,
a bottle of Bailey's, a bottle of Kailua, a package of Oreos,
the remainder of both Prozac and Valium prescriptions, the
rest of the cheesecake, some saltines and a box of
chocolates.
You have no idea how freaking good I feel.

Kimberly Womach, 34, New Port Richey, Floriduh
Jailed After Driving Drunk To
McDonalds, Demanding Free Big Macs
Reported by The Weekly Vice
Kimberly Womach, a 34-year-old Florida woman, was jailed Sunday
morning when she allegedly pulled into a McDonald's drive-thru
drunk and demanded a free breakfast.
According to the Pasco County Sheriff's Office, Womach pulled
up to a McDonald's drive-thru at about 6 a.m. Sunday and
demanded that they give her two free Big Macs because she
was unsatisfied with a purchase she had received during a
previous visit.
When the staff informed her that they didn't have any
Big Macs available because they were serving breakfast,
Womach demanded two free Egg McMuffins instead.
When employees informed Womach that she wouldn't be receiving
a free breakfast and needed to leave, Womach parked her car
in the drive-thru and refused to move.
After ten minutes of arguing with Womach, store employees
called authorities who arrived on the scene a few minutes
later.
Deputies noted a heavy smell of alcohol on Womach's breath
as she informed them that her rights had been violated by
the restaurant because they wouldn't meet her demands.
After failing a field sobriety test, Womach was booked into
jail and charged with driving under the influence. She was
released later the same day after posting bond.

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Removing Face Paint with Oil
You can remove face paint or other make up with olive oil
or coconut oil. Put some oil on a cotton ball and rub on
the face paint. Use another cotton ball to wipe up the
excess paint. Finish by washing your face with soap
and water.

Quebec Math
Thibodeau wants a job, but the foreman won't hire him until
he passes a little math test. "Here's your first question,"
the foreman said. "Without using numbers, represent the
number 9."
"Witout numbers?" Thibodeau says, "Dat is easy."
And he proceeds to draw three trees.
"What's this?" the boss asks.
"Ave you got no brain? Tree and tree and tree make nine,"
says Thibodeau.
"Fair enough," says the boss. "Here's your second question.
Use the same rules, but this time the number is 99."
Thibodeau stares into space for a while, then picks up the
picture that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each
tree. "Ere you go."
The boss scratches his head and says, "How on earth do you
get that to represent 99?"
"Each of da trees is dirty now. So, it's dirty tree, and dirty tree,
and dirty tree. Dat is 99."
The boss is getting worried that he's going to actually have
to hire this guy, so he says, "All right, last question. Same
rules again, but represent the number 100."
Thibodeau stares into space some more, then he picks up
the picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each
tree and says, "Ere you go. One hunnerd."
The boss looks at the attempt. "You must be nuts if you think
that represents a hundred!"
Thibodeau leans forward and points to the marks at the base
of each tree and says, "A little doggie came along and crap
by each tree. So now you got dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree
and a turd, and dirty tree and a turd, dat make one hunnerd.
So, when I start?"
