My good friend Patricia sent this next one called
"Thinking About Your Health". Thanks Patty.
This is alarming!
Beer contains female hormones!....................
Yes, that's right, FEMALE hormones!
Last month, Montreal University and scientists released the results of a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer.
Men should take a concerned look at their beer consumption.The theory is that beer contains female hormones (hops contain Phytoestrogens) and that by drinking enough beer, men turn into women.
To test the theory, 100 men each drank 8 schooners of beer within a one (1) hour period.
It was then observed that 100% of the test subjects, yes, 100% of all these men:
1) Argued over nothing.
2) Refused to apologize when obviously
wrong.
3) Gained weight.
4) Talked excessively without making sense.
5) Became overly emotional.
6) Couldn't drive.
7) Failed to think rationally,and
8) Had to sit down while urinating.
No further testing was considered necessary!
Cheers!

Thanks for giving me some smiles, Merle. If I received that letter from camps as a parent I'd be in my car heading for the camp grounds faster than a woodchuck can chuck wood. BTW, I git all of the Weakest Link questions correct in the less an second each.
Hi Merle...I loved them all...especially the boy scout camp one! I laughed through the whole thing...I'd have been in my car on the way there after the first disaster reported ;)))) LMAO
happy Sunday, love and hugs, Theanne
Love to hear you cook. Those meat pies sound scrumptious. And I remember from reading what your granddaughter cooked that you make good use of pumpkins as well.
I read that some Australian heiress, very rich, said that if we want to become as rich as she is we need to work harder and drink less. Wonder if that's true.
I did okay on those quiz questions, but some I missed.
Yes, spring is here finally. The temperature will get warmer. Then it'll be more comfortable for you, my dearest friend. Take care, Merle (((HUGS)))
KJ is back and I did so enjoy your post. Sounds like you have had a fun 2 weeks with Fluffy. The leaves on the trees are being to fall here so as we head into fall your spring is arriving.You need to practice pointing so the kids will know exactly where you wish things to be planted. LOL Peace
John is just going to have to go away more often, Merle...so you can have Fluff! ;)
That smoothie looks yummy! Take care, Merle...keep warm. :)
I'm so glad Spring has finally come your way Merle....I don't take the cold weather as well as I use to either. We still have some pretty hot weather right now, but also some nice 70's days too.
I can imagine how you miss Fluff...kind of keeps things busy. Stay well and happy dear friend. Much love, Joy
I had to steal the "Sex at 75" joke for my facebook page.
