Saturday Morning Confusion #211

During Toronto's weekly Saturday morning exodus to cottage country it seems we only have one confused individual this week! (Or a very smart one!)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Winners and Losers!

"Asshole of the Week" definitely goes to Hillary Clitoris for not knowing when to quit!

Her hubris kept her in the race much longer than was necessary and the Perspective research department has supplied us with this photo of the moment Hillary decided it was time to give it up!








In keeping with "Perspectives" well known love of cats our "Winner of the Day" award goes to the intrepid gentleman who designed this "Cat Transporter" for when you simply have to take your cat somewhere!

The Internet.

All of us have, at one time or another, started out on the Internet!

On this site we have reached the end of the Internet twice! - THE END! -

Now after months of investigation the Perspective Research Department has been able to fiqure out where the exact center of the Internet is! Click - H E R E -

The Middle-East!

There really are no good guys and bad guys when it comes to the Middle-East kids!

Nooooo!

All we have are shades of grey. I admit that some are greyer than others but there is nothing black and white for sure!

When we look at the different players, some might be leaning more toward the lighter shades and some more towards the "dark side" [sic] but they are all the same as we ourselves are.

By that I mean that each and every one of us can recall all the good guys and the bad guys that we've been, all the hero's and the villains, and the people in between.

So let no one claim the moral high ground bunky, because that would be casting the first stone!

With that in mind lets notice a few exceptions or anomalies, if you will!

Yasssar Arafat was leader of the PLO and seen by many as a hero of the Palestinian cause but it is generally accepted that Camp David would have succeeded if not for Yassar's intransigence. (Yassar always said No-ssar!) And while we are on the subject, where in the hell did he get almost a Billion dollars which he squirreled away in banks around Europe!

Yassar........ the guy was filthy rich while most Palestinians lived in poverty!

'Splain that one to me!

Now, let's get around to the big picture in the Middle-East and tackled a subject that is much more important than the Palestinian one!

A top Israeli official said today that if Iran continues with its alleged nuclear arms programme, Israel will attack it.

Speaking to Yediot Ahronot newspaper, Deputy Prime Minister Shaul Mofaz said sanctions on Iran were ineffective.

Earlier this week, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said Iran's nuclear programme must be stopped by what he termed all possible means.

"The international community has a duty and responsibility to clarify to Iran, through drastic measures, that the repercussions of their continued pursuit of nuclear weapons will be devastating," Mr Olmert said.
Iran insists that its nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes but it is defying a demand from the UN Security Council to stop the enrichment of uranium.

"If Iran continues with its programme for developing nuclear weapons, we will attack it. The sanctions are ineffective," Mr Mofaz told Yediot Ahronot.

"Attacking Iran, in order to stop its nuclear plans, will be unavoidable," he said.
To this argument there are loud cries that Israel has up to 150 nuclear weapons so why are they so paranoid about Iran?

It's quite simple my friend. Although not running around with the white hat and riding a white horse, Israel is at least rational and responsible, while Iran and many other countries in the Middle-East are unstable, subject to religious uprisings and generally are considered lose cannons by World wide diplomatic circles!

In other words Israel isn't likely to use it's nuclear weapons, and especially not for a first strike.

With the Iranians it's a different matter entirely!

We don't know, and certainly can't take that chance!

Jesus loves me! (This I know)

I was looking at a few pages on Google about this and that, and came across some stuff about Jesus that gave me hours of fascinating reading

(Fascinating, as in "Holy shit, I can't believe it!")

There were the usual claims and warnings of what Jesus said and did and wanted and required of us etc. etc. (Now you have to realize that none of this came from Jesus Himself, just things that these know-it-all's said about him.)

BUT....... I ran across a piece where Jesus actually spoke to someone and gave this lady some advice and predictions.

Now we're cookin! Straight from the source, you might say! (This is the same as successful drug dealing......... always try and get to the source!)

I will let you read it without any comments from me!

Jesus appeared to me on March 17, 1984. I was 28 years old at the time.

He instructed me to spread His solution for the achievement of world peace and to work towards it.

He instructed me to tell people the precise location of Heaven, and he instructed me to share the cure for cancer.

BUT He told me NOT TO TELL ANYONE!

He would appear to me after the dawn of the new millennium when at that time I would receive a sign.

The sign would be a huge natural disaster.

For a brief while I thought the events of September 11, 2001 were the sign that it was OK to tell people that Jesus had appeared to me.

However, I knew that Jesus had said it would be a NATURAL DISASTER so I remained silent.

Then the tsunamis of December 2004 hit.

I realized that it was time for me to come forward.

I have been trying to ‘go public’ since then.

I am a practicing, licensed registered nurse. I am married and we have two wonderful children. I am not posting a photo of myself on this website as I will need to remain anonymous a bit longer.

But I am available to answer all questions that come to me.

My name is Jill.

JESUS CHRIST APPEARED TO ME!

He revealed four specific things to me:

#1: The precise location of Heaven

#2. The cure for cancer

#3. The solution for the achievement of world peace.

#4. He revealed the future to me.

I will briefly discuss each of the four revelations now.

#1. THE PRECISE LOCATION OF HEAVEN: When we die we will become stars... Literally stars! Jesus Christ is our Earth's sun. That is why we are His... Because we come on one of His planets. When we die and become stars we, too, will be blessed by wonderful special planets which orbit us and bring us great happiness. God the Creator is also a star... The first and the greatest. Two thousand years ago Jesus said "I am the Light of the World." Jesus now wants us to understand that this means He is the Sun and that when we die, we will become stars too.

#2. THE CURE FOR CANCER: The cure for cancer is actually the knowledge of the precise CAUSE OF CANCER. We already know the cures for cancer, mainly prevention and early detection. Also chemotherapy, radiation, surgery and alternative medicine. We also are acutely aware of the roles of carcinogens, environment, heredity and diet. But what is the PRECISE AND SOLE CAUSE OF CANCER? CANCER OCCURS WHEN WE EAT OUR OWN FLESH. (Two very simple examples of eating our own flesh are biting our cuticles or biting our lips.) When a piece of our own flesh is digested, microscopic fragments of our own DNA enter the bloodstream. If a piece of this DNA enters a vulnerable cell, the nucleus of the cell identifies the 'food' as 'self' and this causes a 'circuit' to be blown in the nucleus. When (and if) that cell goes to divide, it does so in a haphazard fashion, dividing into four instead of into two and the mutation continues. There is an interesting correlation to Christianity here. Jesus told us to "take His flesh and eat it." Now he wants us to know not to eat our own flesh in any way because it is deadly.

#3. THE SOLUTION FOR THE ACHIEVEMENT OF WORLD PEACE: This is so simple! According to Jesus, the way to achieve world peace is this: An AMERICAN president has to set a goal for WORLD PEACE BEFORE 2021. (President Kennedy did something similar when he set a goal for the USA to land a man on the moon in the 60's.)

#4. JESUS REVEALED TO FUTURE TO ME: The future will go one of two ways: If world peace is not achieved before 2021 the world will destroy itself. If world peace is achieved before 2021, there will be no more natural disasters.

I have given a very very brief overview here. You may have questions. I will gladly answer your questions.

I want to speak in public about my experience. Please send your invitations or requests to me: peaceful@hawaii.rr.com

Until I begin to speak in public I am establishing this Web Page in order that I may receive questions. Please feel free to ask: xilliontherockopera@hawaii.rr.com

Send requests for prayers or miracles to me, Jill, at: peaceful@hawaii.rr.com
GOT THAT KIDS?

Apparently some other guy got it all too well because he turned around and claimed it was HIM that Jesus talked to and now he was going to sell it on E-Bay for Fifteen Grand! ($15,000)

A guy called Lester Haines followed this one up:

The winner of this auction will receive my handwritten journal where I have described in detail the four messages of Jesus Christ who has appeared to me.

Jesus revealed four specific things to me:

#1: The precise location of Heaven
#2. The cure for cancer
#3. The solution for the achievement of world peace.
#4. He revealed the future to me.
I will briefly discuss each of the four revelations now. HOWEVER, I HAVE DISCUSSED THESE IN DETAIL IN THE JOURNAL.

Jesus revealed four specific things to me:
The guy, (His name is Daniel Watts) then gave a word for word description of Jill's revelation and followed it up with a biography that was starting to sound familiar.............

Jesus appeared to me on March 17, 1984.

I was 28 years old at the time.

He instructed me to spread His solution for the achievement of world peace and to work towards it.

He instructed me to tell people the precise location of Heaven, and he instructed me to share the cure for cancer.

BUT He told me NOT TO TELL ANYONE!

He would appear to me after the dawn of the new millennium when at that time I would receive a sign. The sign would be a huge natural disaster.

For a brief while I thought the events of September 11, 2001 were the sign that it was OK to tell people that Jesus had appeared to me.

However, I knew that Jesus had said it would be a NATURAL DISASTER so I remained silent.

Then the tsunamis of December 2004 hit. I realized that it was time for me to come forward. I have been trying to ‘go public’ since then.

I have decided to go with eBay in an effort to spread the messages of Jesus.. The winner of this auction will be given my hand written journal which tells in detail the messages Jesus revealed to me.. The person who wins this journal will have the right to copy it and distribute it in any way he or she desires.. I will seek no royalties.

GOOD LUCK BIDDING AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU.
Isn't that nice, these people are always thinking about us and our welfare. (Or were they on welfare and thinking they needed the money.......? I don't know, I keep getting confused on the small details!!!)

And there you have it!

I have been trying to find out how Danny boy made out with his auction and if someone was actually stupid enough to pay money for this revelation but all I get is a note from E-Bay saying that the site has been taken down!

If you have any personal knowledge about his please let me or one of the staff in the "Perspective Research Department" know about it.

In the meantime, we are pleased to report that George Bush has already been talking to Jesus about their shared vision of how to achieve world peace.

Since this heaven-sent guidance surely guarantees the eventual success of the US's holy crusade against evil, we advise all readers who wish to live beyond 2021 to stop biting their nails immediately.

MS-13

At first glance this would seem to be a local problem and not of general interest to a world-wide blog except the gang in question is turning into a multi-national corporation!

Toronto police say they have foiled a murder conspiracy and broken up a violent Central American gang trying to establish itself in the city.

On Wednesday police arrested 17 people who they say are suspected members of Mara Salvatrucha-13 — also know as MS-13 — a gang with roots in El Salvador that operates throughout Central America, southern Mexico and the U.S.

The suspected gang members arrested Wednesday have been implicated by police in the sale of illegal drugs and guns, taken part in violent robberies and break and enters, and suspected in a number of contract killings.

Along with seizing guns and between five and six kilos of cocaine during their raids on 22 residences on Wednesday, police also say they uncovered a conspiracy to murder someone connected to the justice system.

They refused to be more specific.

Toronto Police chief Bill Blair said the conspiracy fits with past behaviour on the part of the gang.

"They have demonstrated in many other jurisdictions a willingness to use violence to intimidate participants in the criminal justice system — witnesses, police officers, corrections officers, judges, lawyers, Crown attorneys," said Blair.

"They will use violence in order to shield themselves from criminal prosecution."
Fortunately MS-13 does not have a strong presence here in Canada and is being eradicated like the rabid disease that it is.

The members are easy to identify compared to the home grown "gangstas" and will be pruned from the landscape before they can entrench themselves into society they way they have in the U.S. and Central and South America.

There they control entire sections of cities and run the local prisons from the inside!

Here is an excerpt of some of the comments made to Perspective about this group;

-The MS-13 criminal organization is considered by many law enforcement agencies as being the most dangerous and violent gangs in existence. To read that they are attempting to establish themselves in Canada is a frightening prospect.

If successful, the drug and gang related violence we have experienced so far in our cities, and in particular Toronto, will pale in comparison to what MS-13 will inflict. This group will be the definition of terrorism in our cities.

-A question that must be answered! How did they establish a criminal presence in Toronto and how did their members immigrate to Canada? It appears the Immigration Department has lot of explaining to do.

A 100% effort must be maintained by our Law Enforcement agencies, our Security services, and Federal and Provincial governments to eradicate this menace and keep them out of Canada.

-I have a suggestion. Get the first plane you can get your hands on, fuel it up before a refugee claim can be made, and ship these boys out of Canada ASAP.

Put them in parachutes, and drop them off as near to their homeland as possible.

OR, as is our habit, we can cater to them every which way for several years to the tune of several million taxpayers dollars, while they continue to abuse and insult the honest citizens of this overly generous country.

-I have an idea! Let's disarm the law-abiding gun owners and close down their practice ranges like Mayor David Miller wants to do.

Mr. Mayor, do you have anything to say about MS-13- the most violent and ruthless gang in the world - setting up shop in Toronto?

Or are you too buzy chasing down law abiding citizens?

Not a peep, not a word huh? You're silence speaks volumes on your "true" intentions.

-You guys need to calm down. You can rest assured that Mayor Miller will take care of this matter. Once he has disarmed all the legal gun owners and closed their gun ranges, MS-13 will have no way to get weapons, nor will they have anywhere to practive with them if they did. Rather than confront them or speak out against them, he will starve them out.

They will soon return to Central America, dispirited and broken, crushed by the David Miller anti-gun machince.

Please, be at ease.
(This is where I have to inject a personal note; I don't agree with letting normal citizens have the right to own handguns since the ONLY thing they are used for is to kill PEOPLE. If you want to be a member of a gun club and target shoot, maybe you should get another hobby!!!!)

-I know of responsible and professional people who have applied for tourist visa's from Central America to visit Canada without any intention of staying here because they have economical, professional ties in their countries... and have been denied!!

So, I dont understand how these gangsters are allowed to come to Canada.

Criminals of the magnitude of the Salvatruchas, and others, are a very delicate issue, and cannot be treated lightly. This deserves a very serious investigation from IMMIGRATION, LOCAL AUTHORITIES AND THE GOVERNMENT before it is too late!

-MS 13 is NOT like any other "gang" in any way, shape or form. They're evil and will stop at absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing to show exactly how evil they are.
Example..a 16 year old boy had his hands copped off with a machette.

Example..an 11 year old boy was beaten to a pulp by a group of MS 13 new recruits for 13 minutes.

Example..a pregnant 17 year old girl was murdered because she was going to blow the whistle. Example..a bullet was left outside of a police officers door with his initials engraved in it.

Shall I go on??

-We need to let our Police and Customs officers use terrorism statutes already on the books to go after organizations like this that will literally leave our streets covered in the blood of innocent citizens.

-This gang makes the Hell's Angles look like angles. They kill for fun, they are extremely well organized, well financed and are spreading like wildfire all across the western world.

-MS13 is made up mostly of people of Central Amercian heritage, but started in Los Angeles, California among the young people fleeing the Central Amercian wars in the '80s.

Because of this background, many of the original members have military training and access to weapons your average street gang does not.

MS13 has created havoc across the Americas.

No surprise they are in Canada.

The question isn't how to send them "back" (many were probably born here), but how to intervene in the lives of these young people so that MS13 cannot take root.

Believe me, you don't want it in Toronto.

To amaze and baffle my friends and relatives!

Just in case you need more proof that we live in a crazy world . . .

In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with animals, but the animals must be female. Having sexual relations with a male animal is punishable by death.

In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman's genitals, but is prohibited from looking directly at them during the examination. He may only see their reflection in a mirror.

Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse. This also applies to undertakers. The organs of the deceased must be covered with a brick or piece of wood at all times.

The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.

In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her adulterous husband, but may only do so with her bare hands. The husband's lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired.

Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England - but only in tropical fish stores.

In Cali, Colombia, a woman may only have sex with her husband, and the first time this happens, her mother must be in the room to witness the act.
(Wow, talk about the Mother-In-Law jokes there!)

In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a woman and her daughter at the same time.

In Maryland, it is illegal to sell condoms from vending machines with one exception: Prophylactics may be dispensed from a vending machine only "in places where alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on the premises."
(Is the U.S. a great country or what?)

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.
(Is that why Flipper was always smiling?)

The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.

The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30 times its own weight and always falls over on its right side when intoxicated.
(Don't even ask, I don't know!)

Butterflies taste with their feet.

An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain.

Starfish don't have brains.

AND MY FAVORITE!!!

There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having sex for the first time...
Reason: Under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry.
(Let's just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere else in the world that even comes close to this? Matter of fact, I'm about due for another career change!)

mmmmmmm?

Bird Poop!

Twice in the past week I have been dive-bombed by birds while driving along in my car.

I don't mean just little specks of bird shit either, I'm talking about stuff the size of your hand when it hits!

This led me into a long contemplation on the where-for and why of bird-shit and I came up with some surprising answers.

First of all I wondered what sort of objects were targeted by these feathered felons and I found out that it is mostly statues of people and cars that get the treatment!

Helping me in this study was the "Perspective" research department, and we first looked at all sorts of different areas where there were signs of fowl deposits and found out that this foul pigeon poop and Polly piss were saved for specific targets.

We have all seen statues with bird dung covering them and this would lead one to believe that all monuments are fair game for these feathered marauders but such is not the case!

No my friends, it is people and their machines that draws the wrath of these avian avengers.

Don't believe me? Just look at this world famous statue of Henry Moore's "The Archer" which sits outside of Toronto City Hall!!!

A noteworthy and non-descript piece of art with no human attributes and if you will notice, not one speck of bird business to be seen.

"What is it with cars then?" You might ask!

Well bunky, that's simple! It is always cars that whack them and their brethren. So, the birds get their revenge for injuries suffered by waiting for your car to be parked somewhere and then take the time to do a right proper job of defecating and desecrating to their hearts content!



Moving cars are another matter.

That's just target practice!

And last but certainly not least, all birds of a feather flock together to lay waste, to and on, as many humans as possible.

As payment for centuries of stealing their eggs, hunting them in the fields and cooking them over a fire these two winged swoopers have declared war on humnaity in a subtle and even sometimes not so subtle way.

Yes kids, it's now us who are fair game!!!!!!!

The Trouble With Islam!

As promised, we are going to occasionally inject a word of sanity into this crazy world!

With that in mind, here's Pat Condell again!

Spreading Christianity is a Hate Crime!

I was going to write about a few things today, but then this little ditty caught my attention, and even though I don't want to sound like I'm beating a dead horse, (Or a camel in this case!) as soon as I saw it I knew that I had to comment on it!

We all know that being an Apostate in Islam (rejecting Islam and converting to another faith) is punishable by death and is enforced in some parts of the Middle-East!

It works the other way too. (Just not the way you think!)

Here is what got me steamed!

Two Christian preachers were stopped from handing out Bible extracts by police because they were in a Muslim area, it was claimed yesterday.

They say they were told by a Muslim police community support officer that they could not preach there and that attempting to convert Muslims to Christianity was a hate crime.

The community officer is also said to have told the two men: ‘You have been warned. If you come back here and get beat up, well, you have been warned.’
Now if this had taken place in Saudi Arabia or even Egypt I could at least understand it, but that's not the case bunky! OH NO!

You see kids, this happened in BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND!!!!!!!!

This comes amid growing concern over the development of Islamic ‘no-go areas’ throughout Britain.

The preachers, who have the backing of the Christian Institute pressure group, say they will take the force to court for breaching their human rights if they don’t receive an apology.

They have accused the officer, PCSO Naeem Naguthney, of behaving in an ‘aggressive and threatening’ manner. A complaint by their lawyers said he interrupted as they spoke to Muslim youths about their beliefs.

Mr Abraham, 65, who was born a Muslim in Egypt and is a convert to Christianity, said: ‘He told us we were trying to convert Muslims to Christianity and that that was a hate crime.'

‘He said we were in a Muslim area and were not allowed to spread our Christian message. He said he was going to take us to the police station.’

Mr Cunningham added: ‘I am dumbfounded that the police seem so nonchalant. They seem content not to make it clear that what we were doing was perfectly legal. This is a free country and to suggest we were guilty of a hate crime for spreading God’s word is outrageous.’

According to a complaint by the men’s lawyers, Mr Naguthney summoned two other officers in support, one of whom, a full constable, is said to have told the men not to return to the area.

Upon further investigation by the "Perspective" research department it seems the Alum Rock area was at the heart of a terrorism inquiry last year, which ended with the conviction of local resident Parviz Khan for plotting to kidnap and behead a British soldier.

A senior Church of England bishop, the Right Reverend Michael Nazir-Ali, warned recently that it is hard for non-Muslims to live and work in some areas where radicals and clerics are trying to impose an Islamic character.
As a final note on this strange and almost unbelievable article I have to admit that there was a time when I was all for Multi-Culturalism because it worked so well when my parents and others came over to Canada in the fifties and sixties.

But, since then we have had groups of people who aren't content to fit in, but would rather import their prejudices and lifestyles to the dismay and disruption of society in general.

I am becoming much more of a "fit in or get out" kind of guy!

The Second Record!

By the way, this is the second record I ever bought!

What a nice, clean cut young boy sitting there with his hair all combed and wearing a suit and tie.

Not at all like some of the hooligans who came after him!!!! ;-)

Bo Diddley!

I remember when I was a little kid the very first record I ever bought was an album called "Bo Diddley is a Gunslinger!"

Although the album was already a few years old by then, I chose it over other stuff by Elvis, Little Richard,Chuck Berry and, believe it or not, even Buddy Holly, because Bo had a sound I immediately identified with.

(Don't worry though, Buddy Holly soon replace Bo as the "greatest!")

Not for me were the likes of Pat Boone and Perry Como, or God forbid, my parents favourite, Mitch Miller and the gang!

Nope, that "shave and a haircut..... two bits!" lick resonated to the very bottom of my being and I considered it to be one of the finest Rock Riffs ever recorded!

Bo Diddley was always under-rated and under-appreciated during the following years, and I had to console myself with the fact that people who overlooked him didn't know "diddley!"

After a lengthly illness, Bo died of heart failure today. He was 79!

Butter me up! (Food for Thought!)

Back when I was much younger I remember my mother saying that margarine was better for us than butter!

She had read that margarine was less fattening, not as hard on your heart and also much cheaper than butter!

Voila, we ate margarine from then on!

Now, however, much the same as coffee, (It's good for you, it's bad for you, it's good for you, it's bad for you!) public opinion seems to be shifting again and I am not sure where to take a stand on the butter / margarine debate.

Pass The Butter...... please. You might find this interesting.

(Whatever the case I would appreciate some feedback from people who have some solid facts about this stuff I found out, because I don't know!)

Seems margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back.

It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it for people to use in place of butter.

This is where we get into some facts and fiqures I hope to prove or disprove with your help!

First.....Butter.

-Butter and margarine have the same amount of calories.

Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams compared to 5 grams for margarine.

Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.

Eating butter increases the absorption of many nutrients in other foods.

Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few - only because they are added!

Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavors of other foods. (OK, I can agree with that right off the bat!)

Butter has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years .

And now, for Margarine.....

Very high in trans fatty acids.

Triple risk of coronary heart disease.

Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)

Increases the risk of cancers up to five fold.

Lowers quality of breast milk.

Decreases immune response.

Decreases insulin response.

And here's the most disturbing fact....

HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY INTERESTING!

Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC.......!

This fact alone was enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance.)

You can try this yourself:

Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things:

* no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something)

* it does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value; nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a find a home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?

Share This With Your Friends....... And then let me know your thoughts!

Sunday Morning Funnies # 567,483

This one is funny enough that it can stand on its own!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An Irishman walks into a bar in Dublin, orders three pints of Guinness and sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.

The bartender approaches and tells him, "You know, a pint goes flat after I draw it; it would taste better if you bought one at a time."

The Irishman replies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is in America, the other in Australia, and I'm here in Dublin. When we all left home, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together. So I drinks one for each o' me brothers and one for me self."

The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there. The Irishman becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way: He orders three pints and drinks them in turn.

One day, he comes in and orders two pints. All the other regulars take notice and fall silent. When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your great loss."

The Irishman looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eye and he laughs. "Oh, no, everybody's just fine," He explains, "It's just that me wife had us join that Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking."

'Hasn't affected me brothers a bit though!'
