Hi honey! Where you been? Oh crap, the old man's reading this, ain't he?
I mean... hi Tsu. How you been?
Hi, sweetie! :biggrin: I been good! 5 acres keeps me real busy! How you been? I see you've been in rare form lately! :devil: Keep up the good work. :biggrin: Oh. And don't worry about Ivan. He can't read the small print. :wink: :smile:

I'd expect so, especially if you're still having to work around that deceased ruminant. (I mean the deer, not Ivan.)

Tsu said:
How you been?
Very well, thanks. Your sisters have been keeping me alert (and nervous).

Tsu said:

It's been said that my humour is very rare; at least, it's certainly not well done.

He was really talking about football, but I am a hockey player who can't stand football, so I changed it just a bit.[/size]

It works better for hockey anyway.

I'll have to write that one down.

I've not been working around the deceased ruminant (which is covered in lime and cedar shavings) although I have been repairing the damage the other two deer are doing to my flower gardens. :rolleyes: Oh well... I'd rather have deer lying around in my front yard with me than have nice rose bushes and unmunched columbine. :smile: I got a bit sunburned today, though, so I'll have to be careful the rest of this week.

Excellent. :devil:

Good mix for the smell, as long as it doesn't catch on fire. Isn't moisturized lime severely exothermic?

It certainly can be handy if you're hungry. Don't you guys have a barbecue coming up soon?

Tsu said:

I thought I told you to wear something while you're working. Bad enough what might get burned, never mind distracting the old guy so's he trips and falls into a dead deer or something.

Tsu said:
Excellent. :devil:
They have been performing above and beyond the call.

Tsu said:
Good point. :smile:
A hint of hesitation there would have been the compassionate approach.

Yep, we've only had to resort to mild electroshock a few times. Nowhere near the fun we had torturing tribdog. :devil:

I see no escape.

A good way to threaten somebody is to light a stick of dynamite. Then you call the guy and hold the burning fuse up to the phone. "Hear that?" you say. "That's dynamite, baby

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man.

When you're riding in a time machine way far into the future, don't stick your elbow out the window, or it'll turn into a fossil

At first I thought, if I were Superman, a perfect secret identity would be "Clark Kent, Dentist," because you could save money on tooth X-rays. But then I thought, if a patient said, "How's my back tooth?" and you just looked at it with your X-ray vision and said, "Oh it's okay," then the patient would probably say, "Aren't you going to take an X-ray, stupid?" and you'd say, "Aw **** you, get outta here," and then he probably wouldn't even pay his bill.

If I lived back in the wild west days, instead of carrying a six-gun in my holster, I'd carry a soldering iron. That way, if some smart-aleck cowboy said something like "Hey, look. He's carrying a soldering iron!" and started laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice." Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because they had made fun of the soldering iron of justice, and I could probably hit them up for a free drink.

Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

You know what would make a good story? Something about a clown who make people happy, but inside he's real sad. Also, he has severe diarrhea.

These are just hilarious

This was allegedly one of Neils Bohr's favourite stories:

A physicist had a horseshoe hanging over the door of his lab. His colleagues were surprised to see this, and asked him if he thought it would bring luck to his experiments. He replied "No, I don't believe in superstitions. But I have been told that it works even if you don't believe in it."

The well known chinese philosopher confucius once said -
Man who stand on toilet high on pot.

Man who jump off cliff, jump to conclusion.

He who fish in other's hole often catch crabs.

No difference between man and mouse - both end in kitty.

What would chairs look like if our knees bent the other direction?

If we still had long tails, how would we dress?

Is it a coincidence that at least one finger is small enough to fit into the nostrils? Does this mean that at some time the nose pickers flourished while the big fingered hominids died out?

If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented?

If people from Poland are called Poles, why
aren't people from Holland called Holes?
