Catholic Gasoline Sister Mary Ann, who worked for a home health agency, was out making her rounds visiting homebound patients when she ran out of gas. As luck would have it, a Texaco Gasoline station was just a block away. She walked to the station to borrow a gas can and buy some gas. The attendant told her that the only gas can he owned had been loaned out, but she could wait until it was returned. Since Sister Mary Ann was on the way to see a patient, she decided not to wait and walked back to her car....

Sigh. If I were a Democrat right now? That’d be my reaction. Waters , who long ago abandoned any pretense at being a constitutionally minded member of the legislative branch, is now rapidly moving into a realm of reality that doesn’t even allow her the title of useful idiot. Even for Democrats, she’s becoming a liability — becoming a tool for the right to showcase the nuttiness of the left.

What has happened to the Friday Siliness thread? I go away for a while, and it is AWOL.

Funny montage with using the classic "Clash" song

A video of a golfer teeing off at TPC Sawgrass has been making the internet rounds, and not because he crushed his drive--he also hit a duck in the process. It's one of those freak things in life where physics can't explain just how the man's trajectory perfectly synced with the unaware bird's flight path. Unfortunately, the duck fared worse than the player's rinsed tee shot.

Oldie but Goody A very ill-tempered woman "about to enter her senior years" was arrested for shoplifting at a grocery store. She gave everyone a hard time, from the store manager to the security guard to the arresting officer who took her away. She complained and criticized everything and everyone throughout the process. When she appeared before the judge, the judge asked her what she had stolen from the store. The lady defiantly replied, "Just a stupid can of peaches." The judge then asked why she had done it. She replied, "I was hungry and forgot to bring any cash...

Police in Oregon had to issue a "verbal warning" to a cat in a tree, reportedly armed with a gun-shaped stick. The Newport Oregon Police Department shared a photo of the black and white cat that was perched in a tree with its paw holding a stick that looked like an automatic rifle. Officers quickly responded to the scene where they determined the cat did not pose any immediate threat. "Reports of an armed cat this morning were unfounded," police said. "The feline was contacted by our canine and was determined to be in possession of a non-lethal branch." The...

After every terror attack that occurs in a european country there is always this retarded practice of liberal virtue signalers to overlay their profile picture with that country's flag saying "We stand with ( Insert country Name ) and pray for blah blah blah.... Well after the next terror attack happens in France and people start doing this.... Will anyone even notice... I mean if you overlay the white flag of surrender ( the new national flag of France ) it just looks liek the picture is having a foggy day...

A husband had just finished reading a new book entitled, "You Can Be THE Man of Your House." Finding new courage that he never knew he had, he strode purposefully into the kitchen and announced to his wife, "From now on you need to know that I am the man of this house and my word is the 'Law'. You will prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, bring it to me, and when I am done eating my meal, you will clear the dishes and serve me a scrumptious dessert." He went on. "After dinner, you are going to go...

How to save the country a few bucks... It is customary for the new president to unveil the former pres__ent's portrait, sometime around this part of a new administration. Rather than incur the unnecessary expense of hiring a photographer, make-up artist and light man, we could use any one of a number of pictures already in circulation. There are SO many to choose from, they may have to be displayed on some sort of view screen that cycles through a slide show. Here are some of my suggestions...(please add any more if you want): BHO bowing to the "Pope" of...
