Good morning one and all. Big hugs and a kiss for the ladies, (with a box of chocolates), a firm handshake and a cold beer and Ham and cheese sub for the guys, and Tom, well with Tom, you just have to take him with a dose of salts and a shot of single malt.
Well, mercy me, you certainly are in fine spirits today! What’s up, good news?
Well I got the truck fixed, but to do it I had to sell my handguns, so I can’t really say its all good news. No jobs around here if you have grey in your hair, you’re ‘overqualified, you can be discriminated against for having a work ethic, having worked, and learned actual skills. Go figure.
A little girl walked to and from school daily. Though the weather that morning was questionable and clouds were forming, she made her daily trek to the elementary school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds whipped up, along with thunder and lightning.
The mother of the little girl felt concerned that her daughter would be frightened as she walked home from school and she herself feared that the electrical storm might harm her child. Following the roar of thunder, lightning, like a flaming sword, would cut through the sky.
Full of concern, the mother quickly got into her car and drove along the route to her child’s school. As she did so, she saw her little girl walking along, but at each flash of lightning, the child would stop, look up and smile.
Another and another were to follow quickly and with each the little girl would look at the streak of light and smile.
When the mother’s car drew up beside the child she lowered the window and called to her, ‘What are you doing? Why do you keep stopping?’ The child answered, ‘I am trying to look pretty. God keeps taking my picture.’
Have a great Thursday evening!
This is only one State...

Camera hog: A county fair contestant hams it up in Roseburg, Ore.
Extra-frisky chicken: Steven Smith gets splashed while giving his broiler a bath at the Chaves County 4-H and FFA Fair in Roswell, N.M.
Plenty of room in the trunk: There is no such thing as a too-full taxi in Kabul.
Where's my pina colada? Somebody really needs to do something about the service at the Pittsburgh Zoo. Look at this empty beverage holder. And they call this a habitat.
Likes attract: A needle-nosed hummingbird perches on barbed wire along a pasture near Elkton, Ore.
Beautiful.

Look how easy these ears go back: There's such a thing as too much stroking, even when stroker is the glamorous German pop singer Sarah Connor. Connor christened the Serengeti Safari Park's four three-week-old lion cubs Tyler, Montry, Lex and Mick. (Hodenhagen, Germany.)
A Tasty Thursday to you!
Oh my gawd!!!
