    Banister of Life: As You Slide Down the Banister of Life, Remember



    1. Jim Baker and Jimmy Swaggert have written an impressive new book. It's called "Ministers Do More Than Lay People."



    2. Transvestite: A guy who likes to eat, drink and be Mary.



    3. The difference between the Pope and your boss, the Pope only expects you to kiss his ring.



    4. My mind works like lightning, one brilliant flash and it is gone.



    5. The only time the world beats a path to your door is if you're in the bathroom.



    6. I hate sex in the movies. Tried it once. The seat folded up, the drink spilled and that ice, well, it really chilled the mood.



    7. It used to be only death and taxes were inevitable Now, of course, there's shipping and handling, too.



    8. A husband is someone who, after taking the trash out, gives the impression that he just cleaned the whole house.



    9. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.



    10. A blonde said, "I was worried that my mechanic might try to rip me off. I was relieved when he told me all I needed was turn signal fluid."



    11. My neighbor was bitten by a stray rabid dog. I went to see how he was and found him writing frantically on a piece of paper. I told him rabies could be treated, and he didn't have to worry about a Will. He said, "Will? What Will? I'm making a list of the people I want to bite."



    12. Definition of a teenager? God's punishment...for enjoying sex.



    13. As you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never point the wrong way.

      I finely have something to brag about. The little town of Hastings NE just won an award for being the GREENEST town in the U.S. The contest was sponsered by Yahoo. com. and we received a check for $250.000 and all the hoopla that goes with it. Well thats my two cents for the next a month or two. Marlin

        I have been to Hastings...One of my friends in college was from there and I spent the weekend at his parent's house circa 1972.

        Also, my Main Squeeze in college was from Loomis

          Subject: Redneck Momma



          A woman walks into the downtown welfare office,
          trailed by 15 kids.

          "WOW," the social worker exclaims, "are they ALL YOURS???"

          "Yep they are all mine," the flustered momma sighs,
          having heard that question a thousand times before.

          She says, "Sit down Leroy."

          All the children rush to find seats.

          "Well," says the social worker, "then you must be
          here to sign up. I'll need all your children's names."

          "This one's my oldest - he is Leroy."

          "OK, and who's next?"

          "Well, this one he is Leroy, also."

          The social worker raises an eyebrow but continues.
          One by one, through the oldest four, all boys, all named Leroy.

          Then she is introduced to the eldest girl, named
          Leighroy! "All right," says the caseworker. "I'm seeing a
          pattern here. Are they ALL named Leroy?"

          Their Momma replied, "Well, yes-it makes it easier.
          When it is time to get them out of bed and ready for school, I
          yell, 'Leroy!' 'An' when it's time for dinner, I just
          yell 'Leroy!' an' they all comes arunnin 'An' if I need to stop the kid who's
          running into the street, I just yell 'Leroy' and all of them stop.
          It's the smartest idea I ever had, namin' them all Leroy."

          The social worker thinks this over for a bit, then
          wrinkles her forehead and says tentatively, "But what if you
          just want ONE kid to come, and not the whole bunch?"

          "I call them by their last names"

            Yesterday, the 4th of July , was more historic than most of us realize. Apparently more beers were consumed than on any single day in our nation's history. Had I known, I would have contributed to the total. All I did was eat home-made ice cream. I'll bet some of the forum members made up for my lack of patriotism. Not to mention any names, but Ray (RL) and Ski, would you have any idea what I'm talking about?

              Bad news Billy...I've noticed this recently too at the local Jr. Market:

                Is that why it tastes funny? I thought my taste buds were going bad.

                  A New Element Has Been Discovered

                  A NEW ELEMENT HAS BEEN DISCOVERED


                  This hurricane mess and gasoline issues are proof that it exists.
                  A major research institution has recently announced the discovery
                  of the heaviest element yet known to science. The new element
                  has been named "Governmentium" - GOV for short. GOV has one
                  neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198
                  assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.

                  These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons,
                  which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles
                  called peons. Since GOV has no electrons, it is inert. However,
                  it can be detected, because it impedes every reaction with which
                  it comes into contact. A minute amount of GOV causes one action
                  to take over four days to complete, when it would normally take
                  less than a second. GOV has a normal half-life of 4 years; it does
                  not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a
                  portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange
                  places. In fact, GOV's mass will actually increase overtime, since
                  each reorganization will cause more morons to become neutrons,
                  forming isodopes. This characteristic of moron promotion leads
                  some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever
                  morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. This hypothetical
                  quantity is referred to as Critical Morass. When catalyzed with
                  money, Governmentium becomes Administratium - an element
                  which radiates just as much energy as Governmentium since it
                  has half as many peons, but twice as many morons.

                  If you are not clear on this explanation of Governmentium, just
                  send a copy this to your Senators and Congressman, and ask for
                  a more detailed explanation from a "Special Committee on Elements".
                  You should receive an interesting reply in about four years.

                    I wonder if the neutrino detectors on the floor of Lake Erie would have the ability to sniff this out.

                        Mimo, I had no idea that this detector existed under Fairport Harbor! I've been down in the salt mines around Cleveland with the Cleveland Engineering Society! Quite an experience being a mile underground in all those tunnels. Nice and cool down there. How did you know about the neutrino detector in Fairport? I'm impressed!

                          I remember reading about Supernova 1987A. Scientists said it was the most significant scientific event of the century. But no one “talked” about it in the media. Here is a link to a TIME magazine article. Page 3 talks about the neutrino detector under Lake Erie.

                          http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,963820,00.html

                          Can you feel those neutrinos wizzing by right now, passing through us? No matter how you try to avoid them, they will get you.
