***THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD***

[Lucky9teen]

Time for one of these...

Hat tip to Toma29 for this one:
One Tuesday Obama was playing a round of golf with members of the liberal media at his side and House Democrats and Independent Obama voters watching from the stands.

At each hole when Obama hit the ball off the tee, it would hook way left into the trees and Katie Couric, Matt Lauer, Keith Olbermann, etc would immediately run out of the woods and drop a ball in the hole. The House Democrats in the stands would rise to their feet and cheer as Obama took credit for his hole-in-one. The crowd of Independent Obama voters began to thin out after each successive hole-in-one.

After making his eighteenth hole-in-one, Obama turned to the House Democrats and the very few Independent Obama voters in time to see a huge tidal wave crash down on them and pull them out to sea. As the water receded the stands were now filled with new Republicans and a few Democrats from each coast who knew how to swim.

Lauer asked Obama, "What are you going to do now, Mr. President?" Obama thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'll moderate." Couric asked, "How so?"

Obama said, "I'll hit the ball from the tee and Olbermann, you drop your ball about halfway on the fairway. After I hit that one, Williams, you drop yours in the hole. People probably don't understand a hole-in-one as much as a hole-in-two. It's more work for me, but that's ok."

Olbermann asked, "You want me call MSNBC and see if they're done with that bigger tank in case that wave comes back?"

Obama looked at the members of the media and replied, "No, just keep those buckets you've been using to carry my water ready."

Hadn't seen that one before.

Have you stared into a spiral for 30 seconds and then looked at something stationary?

LOL .... true but the scary part is that mine is real

This is one ex-wife who only wanted out. The Exes got custody of everything but those things passed down to me from my family.

I don’t believe in being vindictive, and never understood women who are.

But you’re right: this IS a silly thread, so erase what I posted!! :o])

[bannie]

I think it’s part of being a Freeper that necessitates that we, in a divorce, are the losers-of-material-wealth. We do, however, seem to keep our self-respect.

[Monkey Face]

This happened LONG before FR. In fact, I’ve been single since ‘89, and since I was a military wife for most of my life before that, I’ve been alone long enough to know that life is too short to dance with ugly men.

So I look forward to Friday Silliness because it helps me to keep a balanced perspective. Without laughter, life is empty.

And by the time Friday comes along, I’m SOOO ready for the silliness, I can hardly wait for it to start!!!

Hang in there! As long as we come out with our sanity, self-respect and those things our families have given us, we can, indeed, consider ourselves lucky!!! Anything less is most likely not worth the fight. :o])

[bannie]

I just meant that the type of people who believe in Freepin’ philosophies are not the type to raid an x.

I'm happy to be someone who can live with herself. ;-)

I've been alone long enough to know that life is too short to dance with ugly men.

I have a similar philosophy. Mine is "life is too short to do stupid men." Fortunately, I have found over the years that not all men fit into that category. And put me in the club of ladies who could have taken her ex to the cleaners and didn't. Kids and I ate a lot of ramen for a while, but I did what I thought was right.

[Monkey Face]

Ramen was the major of the four food groups. Actually, it was second...after chocolate, of course!

I have met some extremely intelligent men that I had a lot in common with and really liked, but....they are either dead, now, or they are happily married to someone else.

And so...I live alone. During my last divorce, my attorney said, “I really think you should go for alimony.” I said, “How long with that take?” He said, “Six months.” I said, “No. Too long. I want out.” And I got out.

On the other side of that, when he passed away, I got his SS benefits. Better than alimony. It keeps me in ramen and chocolate! ;o]

[bannie]

I checked out your link. Is that The Thread that Never Dies? :-) WONDERFUL!

[Monkey Face]

Yes, bannie...it IS the Undead Thread! (Drum roll!)
I would be proud to add you to my ping list! It’s low volume...twice a month, if we have good fodder!

FReepmail me and let me know!

Looks like an elephant seal is trying to get out of those drawers...
