Don't feel bad it took me a few reads too.....

Two men walk into a bar. One sits at one end of the bar and the other at the opposite end. The bartender asks the first man what he wants. "I'll have a Frizzle. That's a beer with a splash of tonic, a splash of orange juice, a squeeze of lemon, no lime."


Then the man at the other end of the bar orders. "Make mine a Frizzle. It's a beer with just a bit of tonic, a bit of orange juice, a squeeze of lemon, but no lime."


The astonished bartender makes the drinks. Then he asks the first man what he does for a living. "I am a theoretical mathematician at the university."


Then he asks the other man what he does. "Theoretical mathematician at the college."


"This is remarkable," says the bartender. "You both order a drink that I've never heard of. You have an identical profession and you both walk into my bar on the same day at the same time. What are the odds of something like that happening"?


Both men look up and answer in unison, "Twelve trillion, nine- hundred and eighty-seven billion to one."

Little Tony was 7 years old and was staying with his grandmother for a few days.

He'd been playing outside with the other kids for a while when he came into the house and asked her: 'Grandma, what's that called when two people sleep in the same room and one is on top of the other?'

She was a little taken aback, but she decided to tell him the truth. 'It's called sex, darling.'

Little Tony said, 'Oh, OK,' and went back outside to play with the other kids.

A few minutes later he came back in and said angrily, 'Grandma, it isn't called sex.....it's called Bunk Beds.

And Jimmy's mom wants to talk to you.'

I spent 3 hours removing all the dead leaves from our pandanus tree today. The tree has to hit a certain age before the dead ones "loosen" so they can be removed...with ours, it's been 7 years of dead leaves!!!

When I got them all off, it showed off 2 feet of trunk. (see pic 1)

Now, this tree sends down aerial roots from the trunk into the ground to help support & stabilize itself. One of them hasn't reached the ground yet, & Bill & I were laughing hysterically (see pic 2)...it reminds us of some male porn star!!!

I need to write this somewhere where it will get around. Dog found in NEPA...German Shepard....
We think we found out what was eating all the foods put out for the feral cats this winter.
To our great surprise.......A german shepard was on our deck. HE IS A LOST SOUL.........
I sent a note to someone who lost their dog awhile back. But that was by Lk Ariel and here I am in the West End......I don't think it is his dog, as his had a different collar on.
This animal had all his ribs showing, he was full of those round briar things.......In groups!
Some on his inner thighs, some by his feet area. This dog has been missing for a long while.
Which leads me to think that the foods left out over the winter may have helped him survive.
He has a lavendar collar......
We are going to try to catch him, somehow if he returns for food ( as he must have over the winter).........
I did come in contact with a group that "saves" German Sheppards........I'm very happy about that.
However, if someone is missing their dog.........and has been for a long while......this could be him. If anyone in our area knows of someone who is missing a GS with a lavendar collar.......please DM me. But, if we do catch him......I won't let him get into the hands of just anyone. Too many stories out there. He needs his rightful owner, or get some very good care....soon!

Oh the poor dog, would post on Craigslist and if/when you get him, take him to a vet so they can scan him (free) in case he has a chip, it's unlikely he does but if he's been on the lam for a long time, it's possible he does and was given away or somehow got loose from ppl passing by etc (just read another sad story about that happening elsewhere, in this case someone picked the dog up but kept going, hoping they call the police b/c the owners are beside themselves w/ worry). Thanks for looking out for him and feeding him and I hope you or someone else can get him soon. If you do, would ask to see pics of the dog or get vet records as proof of ownership, wouldnt hand him over to just anyone either. Best of luck, will be hoping for a happy update when you get a chance.
