Penny Scales A husband stepped on one of those penny scales that tell you your fortune and weight and dropped in a coin. “Listen to this,” he said to his wife, showing her a small, white card. “It says I’m energetic, bright, resourceful and a great person.” “Yeah,” his wife nodded, “and it has your weight wrong, too.” Jump School After enlisting in the 82nd Airborne Division, I eagerly asked my Recruiter what I could expect from jump school. “Well,” he said, “its three weeks long.” “What else,” I asked. “The first week they separate the men from the boys,” he said. “The second week, they separate the men from the fools.” “And the third week?” I asked. “The third week, the fools jump.” Officer’s First Patrol A rookie police officer was assigned to ride in a cruiser with an experienced partner. A call came over the car’s radio telling them to disperse some people who were loitering. The officers drove to the street and observed a small crowd standing on a corner. The rookie rolled down his window and said, “Let’s get off the corner.” No one moved, so he barked again, “Let’s get off the corner!” Intimidated, the group of people began to leave, casting puzzled glances in his direction. Proud of his first official act, the young policeman turned to his partner and asked, “Well, how did I do?” “Pretty good,” replied the veteran, “especially since this was a bus stop.” Little Brother? A mother asked her small son what he would like for his birthday. “I’d like a little brother,” the boy said. “Oh my, that’s such a big wish,” said the mother. “Why do you want a little brother?” “Well,” said the boy, “there’s only so much I can blame on the dog.” Party Crashers A party was being held and the hostess was getting worried because there were too many people and not enough refreshments. She was sure that not all of these people had been invited but didn’t know how to tell which ones were the crashers. Then her husband got an idea. He turned to the crowd of guests and said “Will everyone from the bride’s side of the family stand up please?” About twenty people stood. Then he asked “ Will everyone from the groom’s side of the family stand up as well?” About twenty five people stood up. Then he smiled and said, ‘Will everyone who stood, please leave. This is a BIRTHDAY PARTY.” Kittens A three-year-old boy went with his dad to see a new litter of kittens. On returning home, he breathlessly informed his mother, “There were two boy kittens and two girl kittens.” “How did you know that?” his mother asked. “Daddy picked them up and looked underneath,” he replied. “I think it’s printed on the bottom.” It Makes Sense...By Veda Hale My husband was happy I found this bit of advice, beings he’s a chocolate-milk drinker. The word is that there are some breakfast drinks that go better with certain foods. Like drinking coffee or orange juice with hotcakes or waffles flooded with sweet syrup. The acidity of the drinks and the sweetness of the syrup make the drinks taste rather bitter. So it is that a better choice is milk or, fudging a little bit, chocolate milk or hot chocolate. Another suggestion would be a smoothie made with yogurt, if you had time to make it. I have yeast stored in my refrigerator for the whenevers I might need it. It has been there a long time, so how do I know it is still good? Well, I could stir one teaspoon of sugar into 1/4 cup warm water in a large measuring cup (don’t use hot water, or it will surely kill it). If it bubbles after about 10 minutes and has a strong yeasty smell, it is good to use. If you are a tea drinker and have noticed certain containers or cups looking discolored, drop in a denture tablet designed to clean false teeth. Let it sit overnight or longer and your cup will be clean looking again. This hint might save a few cents. I often buy cottage cheese and forget I have it. I found a suggestion from Heloise in the Newspaper that said if you store it upside down in the refrigerator that it will last longer. Worth a try. |
