I do not think they take into account that the military would still have to be paid no matter where they are stationed.

Well, I gave the Lady I LOVE a Ring

         Tonight I gave Lauren her Engagement Ring. We met after she was done work and her mother was going to watch our son while we went to eat and I gave her the ring.

         Oh, the problems of getting it. 3 times I ordered it on line with overnight shipping and 3 times Wal-Mart said ordered canceled. After 3rd time I found out Credit Card Bank was denying the charge as it was flagged as possible fraud. I was sending it to another address and it was a business address. So, when the money was available on card that I sent in to buy ring, I went to Wal-Mart and bought a couple of gift cards. I bought the ring on-line and waited to see it was going to be sent.

Ring picture from Wal-Mart website so you can see what it sort of looks like without sparkle.

         On Wednesday night I was invited over to meet her Aunts and Uncles'. I gave a the story about ring and trouble getting it and I was to the point of just saying when I get the ring, "Here your ring, Glad that ordeal over with" and how I not looking at this as an omen. When I got home I check Wal-Mart site for progress on order as when I went to dinner it was "PROCESSING". I received an e-mail at about 12:45 AM Thursday saying it was going to be shipped next day. They gave me the UPS tracking number and when I went to UPS web site to set up e-mail notifications, I found out that the ring was picked up by UPS at 6 PM in Arkansas, was in Tulsa, OK at 7:30 PM and at the time of Wal-Mart e-mail was in Louisville, KY on way to Phila, PA for a Thursday delivery.

         I sent 2 e-mails to Lauren's mother at work and yahoo. One to work telling her ring was do for delivery that day and yahoo telling her if she didn't go to work e-mail or call me. At 10:45 the ring was delivered.

         I also sent Lauren an e-mail saying how sorry I was that WE were having such a problem getting the ring and maybe another one might be of her choosing or maybe going to a store and ordering it there. This ring was available only on-line. I also sent her the link to web page showing the ring was out of stock. Well, her reaction to that after mother said she should just pick out another one was "He better get that one or I going to kill him" I found this out later, that is why I didn't run away.

        

When I was 14, I hoped that one day I would have a girlfriend.

When I was 16 I got a girlfriend, but there was no passion, so I
decided I needed a passionate girl with a zest for life.

In college I dated a passionate girl, but she was too emotional.
Everything was an emergency; she was a drama queen, cried all
the time and threatened suicide. So I decided I needed a girl
with stability.

When I was 25 I found a very stable girl but she was boring.
She was totally predictable and never got excited about anything.
Life became so dull that I decided that I needed a girl with some
excitement.

When I was 28 I found an exciting girl, but I couldn't keep up with
her. She rushed from one thing to another, never settling on anything.
She did mad impetuous things and made me miserable as often as happy.
She was great fun initially and very energetic, but directionless.
So I decided to find a girl with some real ambition.

When I turned 31, I found a smart ambitious girl with her feet planted
firmly on the ground and married her. She was so ambitious that she
divorced me and took everything I owned.

I am now older and wiser, and am looking for a girl with big tits.

MAXINE Surfaces Again to Solve Our Problems

Everyone concentrates on the problems we're having in this country lately.
Illegal immigration, hurricane recovery, wild animals attacking humans in Florida , etc.

Not me. I concentrate on solutions to problems. The result is a win-win-win situation:
+ Dig a moat the length of the Mexican border
+ Use the dirt to raise the levies in New Orleans
+ Put the Florida alligators in the moat.

Any other problems you would like for me to solve today?

Thanks to Redds for sending this

WEATHER BULLETIN

WEATHER BULLETIN

Up here, in the " Mile-Hi City ", we just recovered from a Historic event --- may I even say a "Weather Event" of "Biblical Proportions" --- with a historic blizzard of up to 44" inches of snow and winds to 90 MPH that broke trees in half, knocked down utility poles, stranded hundreds of motorists in
lethal snow banks, closed ALL roads, isolated scores of communities and cut power to 10's of thousands.

FYI:

George Bush did not come.
FEMA did nothing.
No one howled for the government.
No one blamed the government.
No one even uttered an expletive on TV.
Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton did not visit.
Our Mayor did not blame Bush or anyone else.
Our Governor did not blame Bush or anyone else, either.

CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX or NBC did not visit - or report on this category 5 snowstorm.
Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards.
No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House.
No one looted.
Nobody - I mean Nobody demanded the government do something.
Nobody expected the government to do anything, either.


No Larry King, No Shepard Smith, No Oprah,
No Chris Mathews and No AlSharpton or Jesse Jackson.
No Shaun Penn, No Barbara Striesand, No Hollywood types to be found.
Nope, we just melted the snow for water.
Sent out caravans of SUV's to pluck people out of snow engulfed cars.
The truck drivers pulled people out of snow banks and didn't ask for a penny.
Local restaurants made food and the police and fire departments delivered it to the snowbound families.
Families took in the stranded people - total strangers.
We fired up wood stoves, broke out coal oil lanterns or Coleman lanterns.
We put on extra layers of clothes because up here it is "Work or Die".
We did not wait for some affirmative action government to get us out of a mess created by being immobilized by a welfare program that trades votes for 'sittin at home' checks.
Even though a Category "5" blizzard of this scale has never fallen this early, we know it can happen and how to deal with it ourselves.
"In my many travels, I have noticed that once one gets north of about 35 degrees North Latitude, 90% of the world's social problems
evaporate."
It does seem that way, at least to me.

Fwd: [J_N_J] New Rules for 2007

New Rules for 2007

New Rule ..1: Stop giving me that pop-up ad for Classmates. com! There's a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years. Because you don't particularly like them! Besides, I already know What the captain of The football team is doing these days: mowing my lawn.

 

New Rule .2: Don't eat anything that's served to You out a window unless you're a seagull. People are acting All shocked that a human finger was found in a bowl of Wendy's chili. Hey, it cost less than a dollar. What did you expect it to contain? Trout?

 

New Rule 3: Stop saying that teenage boys who Have sex with their hot, blonde teachers are permanently damaged. I have a better description for these kids: lucky bastards.

 

New Rule ..4: If you need to shave and you still Collect baseball cards, you're a dope. If you're a kid, the Cards are Keepsakes of your idols. If you're a grown man, they're Pictures of men.

 

New Rule 5: Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone. Here's how much men care about your eyebrows: do you have two of Them? Okay, we're Done.

 

New Rule .6: There's no such thing as flavored Water. There's a whole aisle of this crap at the supermarket... Water, but without That watery taste. Sorry, but flavored water is called a Soft drink. You Want flavored water? Pour some scotch over ice and let it Melt. That Should be your flavored water.

 

New Rule .7: Stop messing with old people. Target Is introducing a redesigned pill bottle that's square, with a Bigger label. And the Top is now the bottom. And by the time grandpa figures Out how to open It, his ass will be in the morgue. Congratulations, Target, you just Solved the Social Security crisis.

 

New Rule ..8: The more complicated the Starbucks Order, the bigger the asshole. If you walk into a Starbucks and Order a "decaf Grande half-soy, half-low fat, iced vanilla, Double-shot, gingerbread cappuccino, extra dry, light ice, with one Sweet-n'-Low and one NutraSweet," ooh, you're a huge asshole.

 

New Rule .9: I'm not the cashier! By the time I Look up from sliding my card, entering my PIN number, pressing "Enter," verifying The amount, deciding, "No, I don't want cash back", and Pressing "Enter" again, the kid who is supposed to be ringing me up Is standing there eating my Almond Joy.

 

New Rule ..10: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above The crack of your ass. And it translates to "beef with broccoli." The Last time you Did anything spiritual, you were praying to God you Weren't pregnant. You're not spiritual. You're just high.

 

New Rule .11: Competitive eating isn't a sport. It's one of the seven deadly sins. ESPN recently televised the US Open of Competitive Eating, because watching those athletes at the poker Table was just Too damned exciting. What's next, competitive farting? Oh wait. They're already doing that. It's called "The Howard Stern Show."

 

New Rule 12: I don't need a bigger mega M&M. If I'm extra hungry for M&Ms, I'll go nuts and eat two.

 

New Rule .13: If you're going to insist on making Movies based on crappy, old television shows, then you have to Give everyone in The Cineplex a remote so we can see what's playing on The other screens. Let's remember the reason something was a television Show in the First place is that the idea wasn't good enough to be a Movie.

 

New Rule ..14: No more gift registries. You know, It used to be just for weddings. Now it's for babies and new homes And graduations from rehab. Picking out the stuff you want and Having other people Buy it for you isn't gift giving.

 

New Rule ..15: and this one is long overdue: No More bathroom attendants. After I zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint, as if I just had sex with George Michael. I can't even tell if he's supposed to be there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don't want to be on your webcam, dude. I just want to wash my hands.

 

New Rule ..16: When I ask how old your toddler is, I don't need to know in months. "27 Months?" "He's two," will do just fine. He's not a cheese. And I didn't really care in the first place. I was attempting to be nice.
