Beautiful Babies.

Post 435 ~ ~ ~ Friday, 11th April, 2008.

Hello Everyone ~~ How is the world treating you today?
I hope everything is going well for you as we head towards
another weekend. How these weeks go by so fast. All well
here after another pleasant day. I have been catching up
on some blog reading and commenting.

Tonight's item was left for me by my friend Linda C.
Thank you Linda. The pictures are beautiful and so
are the words. It is called "Beautiful Babies."




If I lack the courage to start, I have already finished.

If I want my dreams to come true, I must not oversleep.

Of all the things I wear, my expression is the most important.

The best vitamin for making friend . . . . is B 1. Be one.

The happiness of my life depends on the quality of my thoughts.

The heaviest thing I can carry is a grudge.

One thing I can give and still keep . . .is my word.

One thing I cannot recycle is wasted time.

Ideas won't work unless "I" do.

My mind is like a parachute . .it functions only when open.

The 10 Commandments are not a multiple choice.

The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime !

It is never too late to become what I might have been.

Friends are like balloons; once you let them go,
you might not get them back. Sometimes we get so busy
with our own lives and problems that we may not even
notice that we've let them fly away. Sometimes we are
so caught up in who is right and who is wrong that we
forget what's right and what's wrong. Sometimes we just
don't realize what real friendship means until it is too late.
I don't want to let that happen so I'm gonna tie you to my
heart so I never lose you.

First joke is called "Birthing Spa."

My pregnant daughter and her husband were checking
out a new birth facility that was more like a spa. The
birthing room had a hot tub, soft music and candlelight.
"What do you think?" she said.

He looked around and said, "Isn't this how we got here
in the first place ?"

One from Lady Di. Many thanks Dianne.
It is called RETARDED GRANDPARENTS - a child's
report.

After Christmas, a teacher asked her young pupils how
they spent their holiday away from school. One child
wrote the following :

We always used to spend the holidays with Grandma
and Grandpa. They used to live in a big brick house in
Wisconsin, but Grandpa got retarded and they moved
to Florida. Now they live in a tin box and have rocks
painted green to look like grass.

They ride around on their bicycles and wear name-tags
because they don't knpw who they are anymore. They go
to a building called a wreck center, but they must have got
it fixed because it is all OK now. They do exercises there,
but they don't do them very well. There is a swimming pool
too, but they all jump up and down with hats on.

At their gate, there is a doll house with a little old man sitting
in it. He watches all day so nobody can escape. Sometimes
they sneak out and go cruising in their golf carts.

Nobody there cooks, they just eat out. And they eat the same
thing every night . . . early birds. Some of the people can't get
past the man in the doll house. The ones who do bring back
food to the wreck center for pot luck .

My Grandma says my Grandpa worked all his life to earn his
retardment and says I should work hard so I can be retarded
someday too. When I earn my retardment, I want to be the
man in the doll house. Then I will let people out so that they
can visit their grandchildren.

Work Visit.

One day a mother took her 6 year old son with her to visit a
friend at work. Everyone there knew her, and she was offered
a cup of coffee. That day, as one of the employees went to
make more coffee, her son followed her and asked, "What
are you doing?"

"I'm making your mom's favorite drink." she answered.
Imagine the woman's shock when she heard her son say,
"WOW. You know how to make beer ?"

Two widows, Martha and Edna are talking.

Martha : "That nice George Johnson asked me for a date.
I know you went out with him last week, and I wanted to
talk to you about him before I give him my answer."

Edna : "Well, I'll tell you. He shows up at my apartment
punctually at 7 pm. And dressed like such a gentleman in
a fine suit. And he bringa me such beautiful flowers. Then
he takes me downstairs, and what's there but a beautiful car
a limousine, uniformed chauffeur and all. Then he takes
me out for dinner . . . marvellous dinner. . lobster. Then we
go to a show . .let me tell you Martha, I enjoyed it so much I
could have just died from pleasure. So then we are coming
back to my apartment and he turns into an animal.
Completely crazy, he tears off my expensive new dress and
has his way with me twice."

Martha : "Goodness gracious ! So are you telling me I should
not go out with him ?"

Edna : "Heavens no ! I'm just saying, wear an old dress !!"

A guy sees a sign in front of a house ~ "Talking Dof for Sale"
He rings the bell and the owner tells him the dog is in the back
yard. The guy goes into the back yard and sees a black mutt
just sitting there.

"You talk ?" he asks.
"Sure do," the dog replies.
"So, what's your story ?"
The dog looks up and says, "Well, i discovered my gift for
talking pretty young and I wanted to help the government,
so I told ASIA about my gift and in no time they had me
jetting from country to coutry, sitting in rooms with spies
and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be
eavesdropping. I was one of their most valuable spies for
eight years running.

The jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't
getting any younger and I wanted to settle down. So I signed
up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security
work, mostly wandering near suspicious characters and
listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings there and
was awarded a bunch of medals. Had a wife, a load of puppies,
and now I'm just retired."

The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what
he wants for the dog. The owner says, "Ten Bucks."

The guy says, "This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you
selling him so cheap ?"
"Cause he's a b****y liar. He didn't do any of that."
