One of our first Blonde GUY jokes ... and well worth the wait!

An Irishman, a Mexican and a blonde guy were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building. They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, "Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch I'm going to jump off this building."

The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, "Burritos again! If I get burritos one more time I'm going to jump off, too."

The blonde opened his lunch and said, "Bologna again. If I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I'm jumping too."

The next day the Irishman opened his lunch box, saw corned beef and cabbage and jumped to his death.

The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a burrito and jumped too.

The blonde guy opened his lunch, saw the bologna and jumped to his death as well.


At the funeral the Irishman's wife was weeping. She said, "If I'd known how really tired he was of corned beef and cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!"

The Mexican's wife also wept and said, "I could have given him tacos or enchiladas! I didn't realize he hated burritos so much."

Everyone turned and stared at the blonde guy's wife.




............are you ready for it...................



............its worth the wait ...........................







............here it comes ................................






"Hey, don't look at me," she said, "He makes his own lunch."

Howdy all....I have been offline all day long, because I after having rearranged the garage, I was going through, and playing with some of my dollies I havent seen for a while...and am getting out the Halloween and and fall time and Chrismtas dollies...quite a big chore, but a fun one...

BiGDom is gone today, out with his buddy, and they are working on their cars...this morning, he took the GarbageMobile to the dump....and to the recycle area...that poor GarbageMobile, it never gets to go anywhere, unless its hauling trash...it always stands in as the spare car, should we need it...but its old(25yrs old), hate the color(yellow)...thing is, we got it cheap, when we needed a backup car in case our other car was down...and the best thing about that garbagemobile, is that even at its age, it still runs great...

Of course, Andy just mumbles when he looks at it...hes a Camarro man...his first was a maroon Camarro that he loved dearly, and has great memories of having that car at college, and summer ventures with his friends...

Right now he enjoys his snappy teal colored Camarro, with the pop top...when he bought it, he bought it from a guy, who loved that car, and hated to give it up, but he and his wife were expecting their first baby, and the wife was insisting on a van or station wagon, and they needed the money from the Camarro sale, to help with upcoming expenses in bigger van payments, coupled with expenses incurred from having a baby...Andy was able to get a really good deal, becaue he was paying in hard cold cash, upfront, no loans, or such...so the lure of immediate money, put this couple willing to come down in price...

Andy just remembers driving away, seeing the sad look on the hubbys face, as his beloved Camarro, was being driven away by someone else...ah well, sometimes when babies come, sacrifices must be made...

Men, and their cars...

You really are a family of Sicilians ;-) Camaros and GarbageMobiles.And a yellow one to boot! I bet its the kind of car that Trafficant used to own ;-)A '77 Monte Carlo, or Parisienne.Doesn't it make you warm and fuzzy for Jimmy Carter and inflation all over again? ;-)

[habs4ever]

God, a bit of vodka and you can't make it out of bed.Pathetic stuff! If the lobsters only knew of how lethargic you are, they'd run!You are disgrace to drinkers everywhere!

I hope your daughter,the one that has no known father, is able to improve the family batting average.

[andysandmikesmom]

I dont know what kind of car that yellow GarbageMobile is...its just a big old car, tho...it zips around, like it thinks its brand new....and yes, its a gas guzzler, but then, it only goes to the dump, and to the recycle center, so it really uses a minimum of gas...

We have owned our share of old cars...but my favorite one was the 1962 Valiant...we had that car from 1980-1983, when our other car went kaput...at that time, BigDom was only a few years into the army, and we did not have a lot of money...we got that Valian for 499dollars...it was white, with red interior....and it had a push button transmission, with buttons and a little lever on the left of the steering wheel...the guy who sold to us, had a little auto sales lot, just outside of the housing area we were living in...

We took that little Valiant everywhere, to the beach, on vacations, just everywhere..it had a super slant six engine, that just worked perfectly...we had very few repairs on it, and it was one trustworthy little car, for its age...we had that car in North CArolina...when we got transferred to Washington State, we, had by that time bought another car, a station wagon, but we always kept the little Valiant for backup...

But when we had to move, ,due to our transfer, we did not think that the Valiant would make it...the guy who originally sold it to us, had told us at the time of the sale, that should we want to resell the car, contact him first, as he would be willing to buy it back, because he really liked that tricky lever and push button transmission, and the slant six engine...so we contact him, ,and he actually gave us back, exactly what we had paid for it....

Last I saw that car, it was happily chugging down the road, with the auto dealer waving..he said he was never going to sell it again, but keep it for himself...

Granny's Weird Links

[grannie9]

A lobster will never outrun me..

I will admit to being a disgrace to drinkers..but I don't do it often enough anymore.. Even some of my kids are getting long in the tooth. Some are your age, so you know what I mean...

My daughter had two beers and two Mudslides the whole day.. I think she may let the family down as a whole.. ;)

She doesn't win Phase 10 too often either, and boy does that make her mad... Heh, heh, heh.... Ma/wifey is still the hands down winner...

[Kathleen]

Thanks for the earthship link, Captain. I am ready for one. The DC area is under another nonspecific terrorist alert this morning. Beam me up.

[grannie9]

Morning Kathy... I think we need one of those houses too.. We were just told to get our pills in case the Nuke plant is hit, which is less than ten miles away..

My daughter says she'll drive toward the plant... You'd never get out anyway, so you might as stay put or head into it.. Jeeze...

[Kathleen]

Good morning, Gran. Your daughter has the right idea. Like you're going to sit there and wait for the radiation to hit you. Not.

ME types were in downtown DC checking out the monuments again last week, thus the heightened alert.

I say we colonize the entire DD in earthship homes. In Alaska.

[grannie9]

Morning hon.. Maybe we should build a big big one in Mex.. with Fred? We could make a compound...lol

[Kathleen]

The thought of a compound makes me smile. :-) Let me know when you want to start construction. I'm in. ;-)

234. To: Pointy Stick ; technochick (#231) hi Pointy based on what has been said on these threads I don't think technochick is responsible for freepers being fleeced (or badjoe unwittingly handing their money over to a criminal) technochick couldn't have known that JR is corrupt and BobW is shady the whole forum continually honors JimRob she was responsible to her own organization to do the right thing, which she did instantly in her wildest dreams how would she have imagined JR and BobW, receiving the same information she did, would do nothing she may have tuned out the friva cruise threads (I'm sure most people do) it wasn't the march for justice, an event which had meaning even if she noticed ''commonsense'' was posting on them what reason would she have had not to believe the julie redick problem was in good hands when it reached jimrob badjoe said he raised 700k for jimrob jimrob could easily dip into that till to refund the SC freepers for money they had stolen from them by julie redick Love, Palo
