From Oblivious to Sublime – And Back

I guess that one day it had to come to this, but did that have to come so soon? I mean, who is going to intelligently drive either of these things? Ok, aside from your mother-in-law, who is going to drive one of these things? Anyway.

Take a look and see which one YOU would like – I will put a vote-counter on here and we will see if ANYBODY likes either one of them! (I will put it up as soon as I find one that does what I want it to do! — try it now?)

Belated Birthday Present?

Hi there,

I think I found your belated birthday present. Unfortunately, it’s called a Sherpa (just “Sherp” in Russian [ Шерп ]) and I can’t afford it; these things run about $50’000 each according to what I read. But it does look like fun! Of course, you would have to have the owners’ handbook translated from Russian. But if they sell enough, they will probably do it themselves! But think of the positive side: you could run through the Bayous with this, even in the floods, and come out right side up!

Here’s the gadget:

Good luck!

But Just Before The Divorce . . .

In the last post we talked about divorce, but here’s something that might have gone on even before the divorce! LOL

No Joke – Wife Doing What Her Husband Asks!

A sixteen year-old boy came home with a new Chevrolet Avalanche and his parents began to yell and scream, “Where did you get that truck?!”

He calmly told them, “I bought it today.” “With what money?” demanded his parents. They knew what a Chevrolet Avalanche costs.

“Well,” said the boy, “this one cost me just fifteen dollars.” So the parents began to yell even louder. “Who would sell a truck like that for fifteen dollars?” they said. “It was the lady up the street,” said the boy. I don”t know her name – they just moved in. She saw me ride past on my bike and asked me if I wanted to buy a Chevrolet Avalanche for fifteen dollars.”

“Oh my Goodness!,” moaned the mother, “she must be a child abuser. Who knows what she will do next? John, you go right up there and see what”s going on.”

So the boy”s father walked up the street to the house where the lady lived and found her out in the yard calmly planting petunias! He introduced himself as the father of the boy to whom she had sold a new Chevrolet Avalanche for fifteen dollars and demanded to know why she did it.

“Well,” she said, “this morning I got a phone call from my husband. I thought he was on a business trip, but learned from a friend he had run off to Hawaii with his mistress and really doesn’t intend to come back. He claimed he was stranded and needed cash, and asked me to sell his new Chevrolet Avalanche and send him the money.”

“So I did.”

Lots of thanks to Steve Pohlit at [email protected] where you can join his website “No Joke” or “Today’s Joke” where he has a (mostly adult) joke every few days. He says it’s called “Today’s Joke” because he is not telling it yesterday? Anyway. You can see his website at http://todaysjoke.net. What I’m really thanking him for is that he isn’t (at least yet) jumping down my throat for damaging his intellectual property by displaying a few things here. [ P.S.
