One day a father gets out of work and on his way home he remembers that
it's his daughter's birthday.

He pulls over to a toy store and asks the salesperson, "How much is the
Barbie on the display window?"

The salesperson answers, "Which one? We have: Workout Barbie for $19.95,
Shopping Barbie for $19.95, Beach Barbie for $19.95, Disco Barbie for
$19.95 or Divorced Barbie for $265.95".

The amazed father asks: "What? Why is the Divorced Barbie $265.95 and
all the others only $19.95?"

The salesperson annoyingly answers : "Sir..., "Divorced Barbie comes
with: Ken's Car, Ken's House, Ken's Boat, Ken's Furniture, Ken's
Computer and... One of Ken's Friends.

Well, conditions at work are frightful,
And the boss is not delightful,
And someday we'll all be let go,
This job blows! This job blows! This job blows!

The company is slowly dying,
It won't do any good to be a crying,
So polish your resumes until they glow,
This job blows! This job blows! This job blows!

I'm married to a 6' Pole so I've always got one on hand for Festivus. She is pretty good at the feats of strength though, which does not help my self esteem.

To my Democrat Friends:

"Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2006, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. And without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee. By accepting these greetings you are accepting these terms. This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for herself or himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher."

For My Republican Friends:

Here's wishing all of You a

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
