Lovely. Thanks, I bookmarked the page.
Good morning,
Ms Feather!
Afternoon, TT!
Good morning,
Fellow Lardites!!!
Today's FEEBLE
YOKE:
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, an Exxon 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.
She looked for something in her car that she could fill with gas and spotted the bedpan she was taking to the patient. Always resourceful, Sister Mary Ann carried the bedpan to the station, filled it with gasoline, and carried the full bedpan back to her car.
As she was pouring the gas into her tank, two Baptists watched from across the street.
One of them turned to the other and said, 'If it starts, I'm turning Catholic.'
....looks more like a road to nowhere
It’s a road to exploration and wonder
we don’t know what we’ll find
the road not traveled a secret pass
into a long lost land
discovery of brave new worlds
or perhaps off to a walk in the sun
with an open mind we travel there
and walked contentedly in shadow lands.

Murphy's Law - Always strikes on Friday
If anything can go wrong, it will go wrong.
I have traced 'Murphy's law back to a Captain Edward A. Murphy, an American engineer at Muroc, California (later named Edwards Air Force Base). In 1949 he was working on a project to test the effects of sudden braking. Time after time his machinery failed, exasperated he said of his technician, "If there is any way to do it wrong, he'll find it." John Paul Stapp picked up on Murphy's phrase and used at a press conference.
As with any good idea, Murphy's Law can be adapted and extended.
1st Amendment
If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong.
2nd Amendment
If you realize that there are three possible ways in which something can go wrong, and cover them all, then a fourth, unprepared for way, will miraculously appear out of thin air.
3rd Amendment
When something breaks, the parts damaged are in direct proportion to their value.
4th Amendment
The failure does not appear until the machinery has passed its final inspection.
5th Amendment
When you drop a part, it always rolls into the darkest corner.
Last Amendment
Any attempt to print out this copy of Murphy's law will crash the computer.
Examples of Murphy's Law
Your lost needle will be found by your husband when he is walking around barefoot.
The worst pupil in any class will be a school governors' son.
Uniforms only come in two sizes, too large and too small.
Vital documents that were posted with no errors, will develop errors in the mail.
Murphy's Law of DIY (Do-It-Yourself )
Any project will require at least two journeys to the hardware shop.
If you need more than one item (pair, four, etc) the probability that one will be damaged or the wrong colour is directly proportional to the desire or need of the object.
You always need more paint.
You never have enough nails, screws or glue.
The likelihood that you will complete a weekend project before the end of the weekend decreases with when you actually start the project.
Therefore: Any plumbing project started after 4pm on Sunday will require an emergency call to the plumber to get the water running again.
To estimate the amount of time needed to complete a project: estimate the amount of time needed, multiply by two and use the next highest unit. Hence: A one hour task will take at least two days to complete.
I'd laugh if it wasn't so true.
;o) Hope you are feeling better..Happy you have a nice day.
I saw momma fox in broad daylight yesterday ..Had two raccoons come right after dark also..I have a new younger raccoon..She is not a baby, though.
