An 85-year-old man went to his doctor's office to get
a sperm count.
The Doctor gave the man a jar and said, "Take this
jar home and bring back a semen sample tomorrow."
The next day the 85-year-old man reappeared at the
doctor's office and gave him the jar, which was as
clean and empty as on the previous day.
The doctor asked what happened and the man explained:
"Well, doc,it's like this - First I tried with my
right hand, but nothing. Then I tried with my left
hand, but still nothing. Then I asked my wife for
help. She tried with her right hand, then her left,
still nothing. She tried with her mouth, first with
the teeth in, then with her teeth out, and still
nothing. We even called up Earleen, the lady next
door and she tried too, first with both hands, then
an armpit and she even tried squeezin' it between her
knees, but still nothing."
The doctor was shocked! "You asked your neighbor?"
The old man replied,"Yep. And no matter what we tried
we still couldn't get that damn jar open!"

Hiram lay breathing his last. He rose on one elbow and told
the bedside gathering his last wishes, then began recounting
financial matters. "Don't forget Samuel owes me $7,000."
His wife, Miriam, said, "What a mind the man has, clear as a
bell to the very end."
"And I owe my partner Sid $210,000 for..."
At that point, his wife cut in, "Pay no attention to the poor
man's ravings, he's obviously out of his head."

Re: Euro vis "bent e"
Dear Webby
On items from Europe I see a symbol that looks like a
slightly bent "e", but the same size as a CAP letter.
Is that a lazy form for the Euro symbol, or what is it?
Ron
Dear Ron
What you call "bent e" is the "Estimated" symbol.
It's a ROUND, not oval "e" with a thin crossbar, straight
vertical insides and often the open end appears skimpy
or kicked in.
An example of it's use would be a package of Lasagna
noodles. They are not going to file down a noodle to make
the weight of the package exact, and they are not going to
throw in a splinter of a noodle for that either. If you read
"e 1 kg" then that means that at packing time the noodles
weighed approximately 1 Kilogram +/- one noodle.
By the time you get them, they will have dried down 10%
or more anyway, so that is close enough for Europe.
Because Europeans are used to the Estimated sign, never
use a small e instead of the Euro sign. It would confuse
them to no end. "What does he mean, Estimated 4.95 ?
For the Euro, just write it out if your fonts don't have the
Euro sign.
Have FUN!

A preacher went to his church office on Monday morning and
discovered a dead mule (jackass to the knowing) in the
church yard. He called the police. Since there did not appear
to be any foul play, the police referred the preacher to the
health department.
They said since there was no health threat that he should
call the sanitation department. The sanitation manager said
he could not pick up the mule without authorization from the
mayor.
Now, the preacher knew the mayor, and was not to eager to
call him. The mayor had a bad temper and was generally hard
to deal with, but the preacher called him anyway.
The mayor did not disappoint. He immediately began to rant
and rave at the pastor and finally said, "Why did you call me
anyway? Isn't it your job to bury the dead?"
The preacher paused for a brief prayer and asked the Lord to
direct his response. He was led to say, "Yes, Mayor, it is
my job to bury the dead, but I always like to notify the next
of kin first!"

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Use a Tea Light in Pillar Candles
If you like to decorate with large pillar candles, but don't
like it when they get short, just let them burn down to the
height you like, pour out the extra wax to form a hollow
inside of the candle. Slip in a tea light and then you can
just change tea lights each time you want to have
candlelight.
By QueenBeeCrafts
In case you don't know what a "Tea Light" is, it's those
small candles in aluminum foil cups that you see in some
restaurants to keep food warm, while it is sitting on the
table or on a serving cart. They cost about a dollar for a
bag of ten at restaurant suply stores, and about $5 for a
bag with 100 of them in it.
If you have a choice, get the ones that have a foil covered
cork float for holding the wick up. Those you can replenish
with melted candle drippings and stubs.
If you like the soft glow of a pillar candle with the flame
deep down in the crater, make sure you drill an air hole
upwards to where the tea light sits. You get a much
steadier flame, and you avoid melting down the shell.
I have seen fancy and elaborately decorated "Pilgrimage"
candles that were two, - maybe three, generations old,
and still in fine shape because of an air hole to keep
them cool.
To reach down and light the wick, use a piece of spaghetti,
not a butane BBQ lighter.
Have FUN!

I noticed the neighbor down the street was home every day,
so after a few weeks I asked him what was going on.
He replied, "I left my job because of illness and fatigue."
A few weeks later, his wife gave me the real truth of
what happened.
Turns out my neighbor's boss got sick and tired of him.

A man was sleeping when his wife shook him and said,
"Wake up! Someone is breaking in!"
The man had gone through this almost every night for
20 years, and he knew that the only way he would get
any rest was to go and check it out.
This time, however, there was a man with a gun
who entered to rob the house.
As the thief was about to leave the man said,
"You have to go and meet my wife."
The thief said, "Why would you want me to meet your wife?"
The man explained, "Well, she's been expecting you
for twenty years."
