Welcome to the FReeper Canteen!

Next Wednesday we'll begin a new exciting series: The Canteen Kids will begin doing threads for our Troops and the Canteen!! So? Don't miss out the chance to see the next generation of Canteeners do their thing!!

As for this week, we shall return to an old favorite!

 

 

 

 

 


Your Opinions Please

 
 

Main Topic:

What are your predictions for 2006?

Examples follow below:


1. The Cubs will win the World Series and tomkow will be forced to take a bath. (*snicker*)

2. Reggie Bush, of USC, will become the second most popular Bush in the state of Texas.

3. Our Troops will continue to get the job done at home and abroad.

4. Congress will yet again give themselves a raise. Just goes to show that creating a lot of hot air will eventually pay off.

5. MoJo will still hate eating tofu.

6. hotstreak will still hate eating cheese.

7. Outside of winning the World Cup, most Americans will still ignore soccer as a whole.

See how this works?

Rules:

1. No
politics!

2. Keep it funny, but remember this is a family site.

3. Graphics and pictures are great to share.
 

Before we leave you, The FReeper Canteen, Mr.Tonkin, and MoJo would like to thank Spotsy for doing the Pancakes on Wednesday when someone was needed to fill in. She did a fabulous job. Despite having limited time, she made sure that our Troops had a thread every Wednesday. Thank you Spotsy! Don't stay gone too long!!



Have at it folks!!

Did I tell you Aunt Mary is Blond?

A lawyer and a blonde woman are sitting next to each other on a long flight from LA to NY. The lawyer leans over to her and asks if she would like to play a fun game.

The blonde is tired and just wants to take a nap, so she politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.

The lawyer persists, saying that the game is really easy and a lot of fun.

He explains how the game works: "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me, and visa-versa."

Again, she politely declines and tries to get some sleep.

The lawyer figures that since his opponent is a blonde he will easily win the match, so he makes another offer:

"Okay, how about this "If you don't know the answer you pay me only $5, but if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500."

This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring that there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, she agrees to play the game.

The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"

The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches in to her purse, pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.

Now, it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?"

The lawyer looks at her with a puzzled look. He takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references. He taps into the Airphone with his modem and searches the Net and even the Library of Congress.

Frustrated, he sends E-mails to all his co-workers and friends he knows. All to no avail.

After over an hour, of searching for the answer he finally gives up. He wakes the blonde and hands her $500.

The blonde politely takes the $500 and turns away to get back to sleep.

The lawyer, who is more than a little frustrated, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, so what IS the answer?"

Again without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.

The diamonds came for our 10 year anniversary. Given to me at a surprise vow renewal ceremony, in the parking lot of a minor league baseball game (this is a good thing btw). Long story. . .

As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde catches up.

She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door.

The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you are losing some of your load."

The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street. When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again.

She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door.

Again, the trucker lowers the window.

As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"

Shaking his head the trucker ignores her again and continues down the street.

At the third red light, the same thing happens again. All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck door.

The trucker lowers the window.

Again she says "Hi, my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"

When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next light.

When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde.

He knocks on her window, and as she lowers it, he says,

"Hi, my name is Joe, it's winter in Canada and I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!!!!!!

We are grieving for the WV miner families around here, today. My bro, who had one of his employees there with his company's underground camera rig there, said that the guy was a wreck...they knew from early on they had very little chance of finding the men alive due to the CO levels they ran into. This guy was in the middle of the whole thing...tore him up.
