If you don't know why I'm crying, I'm certainly not going to tell you!

Don't EVEN think about it!

I feel so bloated. Where are my fat clothes?

If you tell me one more time that I seem a little moody today, I'm going to scratch your eyes right out of your head!!

Hurray For Hamburgers! It's National Hamburger Month!

If you have a sweet tooth, here's a fun way to celebrate this special month---would you like a piece of hamburger cake?

And the kids will love these hamburger footstools to sit on while watching TV and eating Happy Meals.

Speaking of being on the road, you could drive around in this hamburger car,

or on this hamburger three-wheeler. Either one is sure to get you noticed!

Signs You Are Under Too Much Stress

All you want to do is sleep.

Your personal hygiene is not up to standards because you just don't care anymore.

You feel lost in the crowd.

You've gained a lot of weight.

Your Dr. says it is time to lay off the sweets...

You're afraid they'll end up being just like you.

You thought a day off might help, so you told the kids, "Come on, let's go fly a kite."

Apparently, there's more to kite flying than you realized.

For those who want to spend time with a fish without having to know how to swim.

Hmmm, this one has a sort of elegant look about it, I suppose, but it wouldn't last ten minutes in my house with two teenage boys.

Dishwasher Dilemma

Tue, 06 May 2008 03:25:23 GMT

clipped by: ltgranny
clipper's remarks: You never know who will show up next to repair your dishwasher! Can anybody figure out how to fix it? How can you resist, cute dogs, cats, and babies all in one post! This one will make you smile.

Clip Source: dancingwithdaisy.blogspot.com

My dishwasher which has been leaking for months now, started making a horrendous rackety-clackety noise and then stopped completely. Obviously, this can't be good. There is no room for a new dishwasher in the budget right now, but I thought that, perhaps, we could afford to get it fixed. I checked the phone book to find some numbers for those who do appliance repairs. I dialed the first number listed, and they said they would send someone right out. Look who showed up.

I could tell this was definitely NOT going to be my day when their representative arrived.

CLUELESS---they were all TOTALLY clueless! I must have let my temper get the best of me a bit then, because they looked a bit frightened when I started raging about their incompetence. One of them crawled completely INSIDE the dishwasher to hide!

5 Imagist Poems

clipper's remarks: poems based on imagery about a railroad, wheat, a willow tree, a country creek, and a violet growing in a bombed building

Forgotten Railroad

baytrail.abag.ca.gov/vtour/map3/access/BTAlviso/R…

Wild strawberries bloom
along the steep sides

of a forgotten railroad.

Poison ivy threatens.

Furry foxtails and wispy ferns
sway in the breeze;

thriving on the blackness of the cinders.

Rotting ties,
Loosened spikes,
Quiet winds,

Forgotten railroad.

Remains

www.netstate.com/states/symb/flowers/wi_violet.ht

Burned and gutted,
the remains of the bombed building
cry with the captured wind
and shelter
a
single
blue

violet.

Oceans Of Wheat

www.pkmeco.com/familyblog/2006/07/watching-wheat.…

The wheat bent with the wind
in waves like the ocean,
rippling and rolling in huge breakers.
Watching, I became entranced
with the movement of it.
Running in the grass beside it,
I built sand castles from dreams
and found seashells of wishes.
Then the wind stopped;
and the oceans,
and the sand,
and the shells,
and the dreams

slipped away.

Why It's Tough to Be a Politician on the Campaign Trail

clipper's remarks: funny dog photos spoof the life of a politician on th e campaign trail

You have to do a lot of traveling,

kiss a lot of babies,

You have to hire a crack team of advisors,

And if something goes wrong, you will be the one who gets the blame, even if you're not at fault.

Your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to pass a tractor on the highway.

You know several people who have hit a deer.

You think of the major four food groups as beef, pork, beer, and Jell-O salad with marshmallows.

Profile #A6119// Jimbo Jabba : husky gray toad is looking for female toad with curves.

"There's a lot of me to love if there's a gal toad out there big enough to handle me. Warts warm my heart so don't hesitate to contact me if you're a bit on the bumpy side. I like belly laughs and basking in the sun, but I can be serious too and can enjoy a good soaking rain as much as the next guy. I've been told I have a bellowing voice, but I am a very mild-mannered toad. I wouldn't hurt a fly! HA! Oh well, maybe that was a poor choice of words. I would EAT a fly, of course, if one came close enough, but I prefer larger entrees if I can find them. I'm not big on swimming or hopping. Mostly I just like to sit. If you're one of those exercise freaks, I'm probably not the toad of your dreams. If you're a plus size lady toad looking for a brawny toad of prominence with a lot of love to give, I'm the toad for you."
