(-:(-:(-:THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD:-):-):-)

Posted on 12/14/2012 5:04:40 AM PST by Lucky9teen

A little boy wanted $100.00 very badly and prayed for weeks, but nothing happened.

Then he decided to write Santa a letter requesting the $100.00.

When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to Santa , USA , they decided to send it to President Obama.

Obama was so amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5.00 bill. He thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy.

The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 bill and sat down to write a thank you note to Santa, which read:

Dear Santa: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you sent it through Washington , D.C. and that &^%** Obama took $95.00 in taxes!



Important Lesson!!!
Mark was walking down the street when he was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless man who asked him for a couple of dollars for dinner.  Mark took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead of dinner?"

"No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless man replied."

"Will you use it to go fishing instead of buying food?" Mark asked.

"No, I don't waste time fishing," the homeless man said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive."

"Will you spend this on deer corn to hunt deer instead of food?" Mark asked.

"Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless man. "I haven't hunted in 20 years!"

"Well," said Mark, "I'm not going to give you money. Instead, I'm going to take you home for a shower and a terrific dinner cooked by my wife."

The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that???"

Mark replied, "That's okay. It's important for her to see what a man looks like after he has given up drinking, fishing and hunting!"

Yay, me! Top 400!

Remember the 'good old days' when the OFST could approach that number?

Ack....when I smell Starbucks brewing, it reminds me of the odor I’d get when charging a car battery. ACID

During my single years, all my pals were married couples...so one birfday they pitched in and bought me "Peaches", and inflated her for the party.

She was great fun for a year or so, especially when we'd take her along to the Colorado River water skiing trips and use her for a floater.

....Peaches eventually hit the dumpster when one of the wives drunkenly doused the strategic points with catsup, which threatened to ruin a perfectly good drinking party.
