An important message to all fathers..........

FAMILY NAME.

You got it from your father
it was all he had to give
So, its to use and cherish
for as long as you may live.

If you lost a watch he gave you
it can always be replaced;
But a black mark on your name
can never be erased.

It was clean the day you took it
and a worthy name to bear.
When he got it from his father
there was no dishonour there.

So make sure you guard it wisely
after all is said and done
You'll be glad the name is spotless
When you give it to your son.

(Ann Onimous)

Hope I did him proud, think I did.
Even though I am a female and my name changed.

Was it a step too far........?

The elderly priest, speaking to the younger priest, said, ''You had a
good idea to replace the first four pews with plush bucket theater
seats. It worked like a charm. The front of the church always fills
first now.''

The young priest nodded, and the old priest continued, ''And you told
me adding a little more beat to the music would bring young people
back to church, so I supported you when you brought in that rock 'n
roll gospel choir. Now our services are consistently packed to the
balcony.''

''Thank you, Father,'' answered the young priest. ''I am pleased that
you are open to the new ideas of youth.''
''All of these ideas have been well and good,'' said the elderly
priest, ''But I'm afraid you've gone too far with the drive-thru
confessional.'
'
''But, Father,'' protested the young priest, ''my confessions and the
donations have nearly doubled since I began that!''
''Yes,'' replied the elderly priest, ''and I appreciate that. But the
flashing neon sign, 'Toot 'n Tell or Go to Hell' cannot stay on the
church roof!"

Do you have a fear of flying? Not that you fear you might sprout wings,
flying by commercial flights? Whilst pondering, I pondered thus....... that.....

Passengers on a small commuter plane were waiting for the

Well, fear produces irrational thoughts.......

It is all around us, but unless our attention is specifically drawn to it...... it is invisible! Take a moment to ponder on these things..... and listen to the music.....

I never realised that Giraffes were so athletically disposed......

YES! GIRAFFES!

This is a very rare insight into the recreational habits of ( I'll say it again) the GIRAFFE!


Subject: Giraffes high diving


Someone has a lot of time on their hands but also is so darn creative.....this is a hoot!!! –e-

My jaw just dropped came after watching these.
So graceful and clever. Enjoy!!
Every now and then something different in a posting

Look before you...... beat!

There comes a time when a woman just has to trust her husband...

For example...
A wife comes home late at night, and quietly opens the door to her bedroom. From under the blanket she sees four legs instead of two. She reaches for a baseball bat and starts hitting the blanket as hard as she can. Leaving the covered bodies groaning, she goes to the kitchen to have a drink. As she enters, she sees her husband sitting quietly reading a magazine. "Hi Darling , " he says, "Your parents have come to visit us, so I let them stay in our bedroom. Did you say hello?”


What was she doing out so late at night?
