I Went to a Party.

Post 642 ~ ~ ~ Wednesday 11th November, 2009.

Hello my Dear Friends ~~ I hope you are all well and enjoying your
lives. It has been so hot here, over 100 F today and has been for all
the week with more to come. Our Summer starts on 1st December,
so it is early and breaking records everywhere. The "Powers that Be"
have started to do burning off, just when the heat wave started. A
few have got away on them, but none life-threatening or near homes.

More "Powers that Be" have decided to ease our water restrictions,
which is crazy when we haven't had rain. We are now able to water
our lawns and even wash cars. So many are against it at this time.
Right enough complaints - sorry about that, I don't do it often.

Today was Rembrance Day in Australia, when the whole nation stops
for a minute's silence at 11 am on the 11th day of November. In
Memory of all the servicemen and women who gave their lives in
all the wars since World War 1, and for the servicemen and women
who are serving today in all parts of the world, and as Peace-
keepers. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will
remember them.

A few more flower pictures will cheer me up!!




A not very good picture of my sweet peas which are now done and are waiting
for me to get a burst of energy and a cooler day to pull them out.



A few more of the pelargoniums, which are my favorites.

The First item tonight came in an e mail from Sue and Bob from the
U.K. and is a warning about Drink Driving. Thank you for this one.

I went to a party.
And remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mum.
So I had a Sprite instead.

I felt proud of myself.
The way you said I would,
That I didn't drink and drive,
Though some friends said I should.

I made a healthy choice,
And your advice to me was right,
The party finally ended,
And the kids drove out of sight.

I got into my car,
Sure to get home in one piece,
I never knew what was coming, Mum
Something I expected least.

Now I'm lying on the pavement,
And I hear the policeman say,
The kid who caused this wreck was drunk,
Mum, his voice seems far away.

My own blood's all around me,
As I try hard not to cry.
I can hear the paramedic say,
This girl is going to die.

I'm sure the guy had no idea,
While he was flying high,
Because he chose to drink and drive,
Now I would have to die.

So why do people do it, Mum
Knowing that it ruins lives?
And now the pain is cutting me,
Like a hundred stabbing knives.

Someone should have taught him,
That it's wrong to drink and drive.
Maybe if his parents had,
I'd still be alive.

My breath is getting shorter, Mum
I'm getting really scared.
These are my final moments,
And I'm so unprepared.

I wish you could hold me Mum,
As I lie here and die.
I wish I could say, "I love you, Mum"
So I love you and good-bye.

A Bear, a Lion and a Pig.

A bear, a lion and a pig meet. I know what you're thinking -
they eat the PIG . . . NO

The bear says, "If I roar in the forest, the entire forest is
shivering with fear."

The lion says, "If I roar in the jungle, the entire jungle is
afraid of me."

The pig says, "Big deal . . . .I only have to cough, and the entire
planet goes into mass panic."

THE PSYCHOPATH TEST.

Read this question, come up with an answer and then scroll down
to the bottom for the result. This is not a trick question. It is as
it reads. No-one I know has gotten it right. Few people do.....

A woman, while at a funeral of her own mother, met a guy whom
she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing. She believed
him to be her dream guy so much that she fell in love with him right
there, but never asked his number and could not find him. A few
days later she killed her sister . . .

Question : What is her motive for killing her sister?

(Give this some thought before you answer, see answer below.)




















Answer :
She was hoping the guy would appear at the funeral again.
If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath.
This was a test by a famous American psychologist used to
determine if one has the same mentality as a killer.
Many arrested serial killers took part in the test and answered
the question correctly. If you didn't answer the question
correctly, good for you.

If you got the answer correct, please let me know so I can take
your crazy ass off my e-mail list.

A man was driving down the road when he saw a baby pig along
side of the road. He stopped and picked it up and headed home to
the city with his new found pet. AS the man drove home, the
piglet jumped up on the shelf in the back window and paced back
and forth - creating quiite a distraction for passing motorists.

After entering the city limits, a cop saw this and pulled the car over.
"Hey, what are you doing with that pig in the car?" the cop asked.

The driver replied, "Well, I just found him beside the road, so I thought
he'd make a great pet."
The cop responded, "I want you to take that pig to the Zoo."
The driver agreed and drove off.

The next day the cop saw the man driving around with the pig in the
back window again and pulled him over.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO TAKE THAT PIG
TO THE ZOO" He yelled.

"Well, I did take the pig to the Zoo. We had such a good time, we
are going to the ball game now."

Religious Differences.

A little boy was walking down a dirt road after church one Sunday
when he came to thd crossroads where he met a little girl coming
from the other direction.

"Hello," said the little boy.
"Hi," replied the little girl.
"Where are you going?" asked the little boy.
"I've been to church and I am on my way home," answered the girl.

"Me too," replied the little boy. "I'm also on my way home from
church. Which church do you go to?" the little boy asked.
"I go to the Baptist church back down the road. What about you?"
The boy replied, "I go to the Catholic church at the top of the hill."

They discover they are both going the same way so they decided
to walk together.
They came to a low spot in the road where spring rains had
partially flooded the road, so there was no way that they could get
across to the other side without getting wet.

"If I get my new Sunday dress wet, my Mom's going to skin me
alive," said the little girl.
"My Mom will tan my hide too if I get my new Sunday suit wet,"
replied the little boy.

"I tell you what I think I'll do," said the little girl. I'm gonna pull off
all my clothes and hold them over my head and wade across."
"That's a good idea," replied the little boy. "I'm gonna do the
same thing with my suit."

So they both undressed and waded across to the other side without
getting their clothes wet.
They were standing there in the sun waiting to drip dry before
putting their clothes back on, when the little boy finally remarked,

"You know, I never did realize before just how much difference there
really is between a Baptist and a Catholic."

A little boy asks his father, "Daddy, how was I born?"

The father answers, "Well, son, I guess one day you will need to find
out anyway. Your Mom and I ffirst got together in a chat room on
Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met
at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, and googled each
other. There your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive.
As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered neither one of us had
used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine
months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said:

You've Got Male.
<><>

Time to say Goodnight my friends. Look after yourselves, and
each other. I hope you are happy with your lives. My love and
very best wishes to you all. Cheers, Merle.
