Dave Barry on Christmas

Once again we find ourselves enmeshed in the Holiday Season, that very special time of year when we join with our loved ones in sharing centuries-old traditions such as trying to find a parking space at the mall. We traditionally do this in my family by driving around the parking lot until we see a shopper emerge from the mall, then we follow her, in very much the same spirit as the Three Wise Men, who 2,000 years ago followed a star, week after week, until it led them to a parking space. - Dave Barry

Quotes on "Meetings"

Having served on various committees, I have drawn up a list of rules:
  • Never arrive on time; this stamps you as a beginner.
  • Don't say anything until the meeting is half over; this stamps you as being wise.
  • Be as vague as possible; this avoids irritating the others.
  • When in doubt, suggest that a sub-committee be appointed.
  • Be the first to move for adjournment; this will make you popular; it's what everyone is waiting for.

  • - Harry Chapman



    A meeting is a gathering where people speak up, say nothing, then all disagree

    A meeting is indispensable when you don't want to accomplish anything.

    Senator Chambers has 30 days to appeal and refile his case against God. Let's stay tuned to see what the defendant's-pardon me, God's response will be.

    Return On Investment

    If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today.

    If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have $33.00 today.


    If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.

    But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you will have received a $214.00.

    Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.

    AND.....

    A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.
    Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year. That means that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon!

    Makes you proud to be an American!

    Current News Funnies From Craig Ferguson

    * Colin Powell is in the news, of course, because he endorsed Barack Obama. Wonder how John McCain feels about Colin Powell endorsing Obama. He is probably all right with it. Men his age are used to having colon problems.

    * Of course, there's only one thing on everyone's mind right now . . . the country is divided . . . that's right- Madonna's divorce.

    * It's sad. Madonna and Guy Ritchie are a great couple. Madonna gave him the best years of her life, and he gave her an English accent.

    10 Worst Pick-Up Lines Ever

    10 Worst Pick-Up Lines Ever
    By Carl Megill


    Being a single guy isn't easy these days. In the long run, it's always the woman who makes the final decision as to whether or not anything is going to happen. Using the correct pick-up line to attract a woman's attention is very important. There are so many out there, it's hard to pick the right one. So, instead of a list of pick-up lines that work, here is a list of ten lines that definitely won't work and the responses that were received. How do I know? Let's just say, some fool went out there and tried them. Okay, it was for experimental purposes.


    Of course, always avoid the obvious and overdone ones like "What's your sign?" Responses to this one could range from "Keep out" to "Toll road." You don't want to get shot down before you've even had a chance to show her what a total idiot you can be. So, avoid the following:


    1. Your place or mine. Response: Yours. Wait for me. If I'm not there in an hour, start without me.


    2. If I told you that you had a nice body, would you hold it against me? Response: If I told you that you were a moron, would you go away?


    3. Congratulations. You have been voted "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World" and first prize is a night with me. Response: What's second prize? Two nights with you?


    4. I only have three months to live. Response: Where can I send the flowers?


    5. You know what I like about you? My arms. Response: You know what I like about you? Nothing.


    6. I hope you know CPR, because you take my breath away. Response: What would I have to know to get the rest of you taken away?


    7. My lips are registered weapons. Response: Do me a favor. Try pointing them towards your head and blow your brains out.


    8. Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again? Response: Walk by again and this time, don't stop until you've crossed the state line.


    9. Hi, can I buy you a car? (No response, but this one cost me three Kias.)


    10. Pardon me, miss, but I seemed to have misplaced my phone number. Could I borrow yours? (Again, no response and I actually did get a phone number. When I called it, the next day, it was for Jenny Craig.)


    So, there you go; ten pick-up lines to stay away from. If you have used some pick-up lines that didn't work, or if you've had some unusual ones used on you, I'd love to hear from you. After all, it's important that we share in these troubled times. Besides, I might be able to get another column out of this.

    Excerpts from a Cat's Diary

    Day 983 of my captivity.

    My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.

    They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape.

    In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet.

    Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little hunter" I am. Bastards!

    There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.

    Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow --but at the top of the stairs.

    I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches.

    The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released - and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded.

    The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now . . .

    Jesus Is Watching You

    Late one night, a burglar broke into a house that he thought was empty. He tiptoed through the living room but suddenly he froze in his tracks when he heard a loud voice say: "Jesus is watching you!"
    Silence returned to the house, so the burglar crept forward again. "Jesus is watching you," the voice boomed again.
    The burglar stopped dead again. He was frightened. Frantically, he looked all around. In a dark corner, he spotted a bird cage and in the cage was a parrot.
    He asked the parrot: "Was that you who said Jesus is watching me?" "Yes", said the parrot.
    The burglar breathed a sigh of relief, then he asked the parrot: "What's your name?"
    "Clarence," said the bird.
    "That's a dumb name for a parrot," sneered the burglar. "What idiot named you Clarence?"
    The parrot said, "The same idiot who named the Rottweiller, Jesus."

    The Blonde Who Went Ice Fishing

    A blonde wanted to go ice fishing. She'd seen many books on the subject, and finally, after getting all the necessary equipment together, she made her way out onto the ice. After positioning her comfy footstool, she started to make a circular cut in the ice. Suddenly ---from the sky--- a voice boomed, "THERE ARE NO FISH UNDER THE ICE!" Startled, the blonde moved further down the ice, poured a Thermos of cappuccino, and began to cut yet another hole. Again, from the heavens, the voice bellowed, "THERE ARE NO FISH UNDER THE ICE!" The blonde, now quite worried, moved way down to the opposite end of the ice, sat up her stool, and tried again to cut her hole. The voice came once more: "THERE ARE NO FISH UNDER THE ICE! She stopped, looked skyward, and said, " Is that you, Lord?" The voice replied, "No, I'm the Ice-Rink Manager!"
