Friday Funnies & Weird Stuff #56
09/28/2007
Boy, Hubby’s had a long week this week. He has to work today, tomorrow and possibly Sunday. All over time too and he likes that overtime I’m here to tell ya. I’m afraid that by Sunday evening he’s going to be one whipped puppy dog. He’s coming home this evening though to pick up his paycheck, get his laundry done and take me back with him when he goes back Saturday morning. If it weren’t for the bird and that herd of feral cats that love me more than I love them, I’d be going with him every week. I hate having to ask my neighbor and friend Margaret to take care of them for more than a week at a time.
I’m going to change up the format for Friday Funnies & Weird Stuff starting today. I’ve decided that I’m not going to do the links to the news stories any longer. I just don’t have the time nor do their seem to be any really funny news stories lately. And if you think my blog loads slow, you ought to be on my end with dial-up trying to load my Yahoo! home page. It takes almost an hour daily to try to load the pages to find good stories that it seems that no one really cares about anyway.
So, with that said, what I’ve decided to do it to return it back to just Friday Funnies and list some of the best jokes that I’ve gotten in my email for the week. And so with that, I give you this weeks jokes.
A blonde was busy weed-eating her yard and accidentally cut off the tail of her cat, who was hiding in the grass. She scoped up the cat and it’s tail and rushed it over to Wal-Mart.
Why Wal-Mart you ask? Because Wal-Mart is the nations #1 retailer.
Okay, moving right along to the next joke:
A group of kindergartner’s were trying very hard to become accustomed to the first grade. The biggest hurdle they faced was the teacher insisting on NO baby talk! “You need to use ‘Big People’ words”, she was always reminding them. She asked Chris what he had done over the weekend. “I went to visit my Nana”, he replied. “No, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use ‘Big People” words!, she replied. The teacher then asked Mitchell what he had done. “I took a ride on a choo-choo.”, Mitchell replied. She said, “No, you took a ride on a TRAIN..You must remember to use ‘Big People’ words.” The teacher then asked little Alex what he had done. “I read a book,” he replied. “That’s WONDERFUL!” the teacher said. “What book did you read?” Alex thought real hard about it, then puffed out his chest with great pride and said, “Winnie the SHIT.”
And for the final joke:
The Alabama preacher said to his congregation, “Someone in this congregation has spread a rumor that I belong to the Ku Klux Klan. This is a horrible lie and one which a Christian community cannot tolerate.
I am embarrassed and do not intend to accept this. Now, I want the party who did this to stand and ask forgiveness from God and his Christian Family.” No one moved a muscle.
The preacher continued, “Do you have the nerve to face me and admit this is a falsehood? Remember, you will be forgive and in your heart you will feel glory. Now stand and confess your transgression.” Again all was quiet.
Then slowly a drop-dead gorgeous blond with a body that would stop traffic rose from the third pew. Her head was bowed and her voice quivered as she spoke, “Reverend, there has been a terrible misunderstanding. I never said you were a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I simply told a couple of my friends that you were a wizard under the sheets.”
The preacher fell to his knees, his wife fainted, and the congregation roared!
Y’all have a good weekend now ya hear!



We like you cause of who you are, not the links you put on your blog
. do whats most beneficial for you, not us
. Its YOUR blog.
Walmart is the leading retailer and the biggest home for outsourcing too
and katrillions of women dont realize that, because they are the most targeted demographic.
>> I still wish there was a walmart around here Lol.
Melgarita,
Yes it’s my blog, but I like to explain why I change things especially when I’ve been doing it for over a year. And some times it sounds like I’m complaining when really what I’m doing is just voicing some thoughts and being realistic & practical.
I know a lot of people who despise Walmart including most of Hubby’s family. But Sam Walton started with one small store. He created an empire off the simple idea of providing lost cost merchandise to people. It’s taken 40 year to grow to the empire that it is today. Any of the other retailers could have done the same thing at any time. Was it right or was it wrong? I can’t answer that. I do know I get so tired of hearing that they want to own one of everything. Well sure they do, that’s the name of business and it’s called diversification. Anyway enough of that. I love shopping at Walmart Supercenters because I can get almost everything I want and need in one stop.

I wont persist too much on the subject because I dont think you care to discuss it but I just wanna answer that question, because I think I can answer that.
Hell started out as a little corner business, but its kept its roots. Thats the only difference. The thing about Walmart is that its not specializing in American Products, even though its the face of many americans, like jeans. It takes items from everywhere, places where goods are being produced for 5 pennies a day, just so us silly americans can buy them more expensive than its actual cost. The real issue is that it increases poverty in America. The more things outsourced, the less work for us, the worst our economy. Walmart advocates the production of ALL goods, to provide services for the consumer. The consumer is partial to efficiency, just like the economy but the price we pay is our own souls.
It was right for them to expand, but it was wrong for them to become a firm which advocates every good produced.
In my opinion.
In truth, diversification is the game, and the firms benefit off of it and the production market, but the resources, and the consumer utility is all being underutilized.
CONSPIRACY
! Lol…..>>…..
Melgarita,
I agree whole heartedly with all of the points you make but let me clarify the one about the American made products. Back about 15 years ago, when you were just knee high to a grasshopper, Walmart did focus on American made products and made a big deal about it. Then Sam died, his kids inherited the company and have taken it in a different direction. The reality of it all is that we as the consumer are ultimately our own worst enemy.
And you know what my friend Mella? You are one smart cookie! I envy and admire your intelligence.
Wander
lol. nice jokes
I agree with Melgarita over the links. It’s a personal blog anyway.. right?

Titania,
I love corny jokes only I call them groaner’s. Especially when I don’t see the punch line coming like I didn’t with this one. :b
Wander
Thank you. Intelligence is free and everyone is open to it
Leave it to the kids to screw ‘errything up. I shouldve suspected Lol. Sam walton sounds like a good man. You sounds very knowing about Walton. You must admire him also
Mellatello,
Yes intelligence is free and available to everyone, but not everyone uses their’s wisely.
From everything that I have heard about Sam Walton he was a very down to earth guy. When he walked into one of his stores you would never have know that he was the owner by the way he dressed (still wore farmers overalls even have becoming a billionaire). I think he was a pretty savvy business man for someone without a college education and that I do admire. Sometimes the school of hard knocks gives you in invaluable education.
Wander
Your right Wanda baby, he does indeed give off a good impression. Ive always admired a king who takes his crown off and walks amongst his people. I know my brother does that, and it says alot about their character. According to my research, if he was still alive, he would be richer than bill gates, twice fold. He was indeed savvy.
You know, thats one of the things I want to teach my future kids, and my kids now, which is that the hard knock life reaps the most benefits. I always say that college means little at the end of the day if a person isnt well rounded and your right, people with intelligence, dont always use it correctly.
Thanks alot Wanda baby
Now youve made me a fan of Walton
Not that thats a bad thing. He seems like an earnest man. And an Okie too!
Mel,
I’m glad you checked him out. I find it interesting to know the back ground when I can.
