    The Lord and the Seamstress

    One day, when a seamstress was sewing while sitting close to a river,her thimble fell into the river.

    When she cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, "My dear child, why are you crying?"
    The seamstress replied that her thimble had fallen into the water and that she needed it to help her husband in making a living for their family.
    The Lord dipped His hand into the water and pulled up a golden thimble set with pearls. "Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked.
    The seamstress replied, "No"
    The Lord again dipped into the river. He held out a silver thimble ringed with Sapphires. "Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked.
    Again, the seamstress replied, "No."
    The Lord reached down again and came up with a leather thimble. "Is this your
    Thimble?" the Lord asked.
    The seamstress replied, "Yes."
    The Lord was pleased with the woman's honesty and gave her all three thimbles to keep, and the seamstress went home happy.
    Some years later, the seamstress was walking with her husband along the riverbank, and her husband fell into the river and disappeared under the water.
    When she cried out, the Lord again appeared and asked her, "Why are you
    crying?"
    "Oh Lord, my husband has fallen into the river!"
    The Lord went down into the water and came up with Mel Gibson. "Is this your husband?" the Lord asked.
    "Yes," cried the seamstress.
    The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"
    The seamstress replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding.
    You see, if I had said 'no' to Mel Gibson, you would have come up with Tom Cruise. Then if I said 'no' to him, you would have come up with my husband. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I'm not in the best of health and would not be able to take care of all three husbands, soTHAT'S why I said 'yes' to Mel Gibson."
    And so the Lord let her keep him.

    The moral of this story is: Whenever a woman lies, it's for a good and honorable reason, and in the best interest of all others.

    That's our story, and we're sticking to it!

    WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Hang on to any of the new State of Oklahoma quarters.

    If you have them, they may be worth much more than 25 cents. The U. S.Treasury announced today that it is recalling all of the Oklahoma quarters that are part of its program featuring quarters from each state.

    "We are recalling all the new Oklahoma quarters that were recently issued,"
    Treasury Undersecretary Jack Shackleford said Monday.

    This action is being taken after numerous reports that new quarters will not work in parking meters, tollbooths, vending machines, pay phones, or other coin-operated devices.

    "The problem lies in the unique design of the Oklahoma quarter, which was created by an OSU graduate, Shackleford said.


    "Apparently, the duct tape holding the two dimes and the nickel together keeps jamming the coin-operated devices."

    EVE'S *SIDE* OF THE STORY

    After three weeks in the Garden of Eden, God came to visit Eve.

    So, how is everything going?" inquired God.

    "It is all so beautiful, God," she replied. "The sunrises and
    sunsets are breathtaking, the smells, the sights, everything is
    wonderful, but I have just one problem. It's these breasts you
    have given me. The middle one pushes the other two out and I am
    constantly knocking them with my arms, catching them on branches
    and snagging them on bushes. They are a real pain," reported Eve.
    Eve went on to tell God that since many other parts of her body
    came in pairs, such as her limbs, eyes, ears, etc..........she felt
    that having only two breasts might leave her body more
    "symmetrically balanced," as she put it.

    That is a fair point," replied God, "But it was my first shot at
    this, you know. I gave the animals six breasts, so I figured that
    you needed only half of those, but I see that you are right. I will
    fix it up right away." And God reached down, removed the middle
    breast and tossed it into the bushes.

    Three weeks passed and God once again visited Eve in the Garden of
    Eden. "Well, Eve how is my favorite creation?" "Just fantastic,"
    she replied, "But for one oversight on your part. You see, all the
    animals are paired off. The ewe has a ram and the cow has her bull. All the animals have a mate except me. I feel so alone."

    God thought for a moment and said, "You know, Eve, you are right.
    How could I have overlooked this? You do need a mate and I will
    immediately create a man from a part of you. Now let's
    see.....where did I put the useless boob?"

    The Pond

    The pond was properly shaped and fixed up for swimming when it was built. One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn't been there for a while, and look it over. He grabbed a five-gallon bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end.

    One of the women shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave!"

    The old man frowned, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked." Holding the bucket up he said, "I'm here to feed the alligator."

    Moral: Old men can still think fast.

    PAPER VS SOAP

    A woman sends her clothing out to the Chinese laundry.

    When it came back there are still stains in her panties.

    The next week she encloses a note to the Chinese laundryman that

    says, "Use more soap on panties."

    This goes on for several weeks, the woman sending the same note to

    the laundry. "Use more soap on panties."

    Finally fed up the Chinese man responded with his own note that

    said, "Use more paper on butt." :boff:

    A seven-year-old boy was at the center of a courtroom drama today
    when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.

    The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge
    initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law
    and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree
    possible.

    The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him
    more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her.

    When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the
    boy cried out that they also beat him.

    After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning
    that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the
    judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who
    should have custody of him.

    After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child
    welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Oklahoma
    State Cowboys, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating
    anyone.

    The Laws of Work



    If you can't get your work done in the first 24 hours, work nights.

    If it weren't for the last minute, nothing would get done.

    Following the rules will not get the job done.

    Getting the job done is no excuse for not following the rules.

    No matter how much you do, you never do enough.

    A pat on the back is only a few centimetres from a kick in the butt.

    Don't be irreplaceable, if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.

    It doesn't matter what you do, it only matters what you say you've done, and what you're going to do.

    After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.

    If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. No use being a fool about it.

    Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he/she is supposed to be doing.

    If you are good, you will complete all your assigned work. If you're really good, you'll get out of it.

    You are always doing something marginal when the boss drops by your desk.

    People who go to conferences are the ones who shouldn't.

    The last person that quit or was fired will be held responsible for everything that goes wrong.
