The hang out...

Woot gald to see you GG.. :)

So yesterday the older 2 kids went back to school. I must be weird because most people are happy about it but makes me sad :( I am Still looking for a job atm. Not getting much luck.
Been dealing with having alot on my plate as of latly hoping it eases up now so I can actually deal with things and get them done. Miss chatting with all you guys though... Hope all is well with all of you.

Not sure if I posted this yet or not so owell if I did LOL

His name was Bubba, he was from Mississippi, and he needed a loan. So...he walked into a bank in New York City and asked for the Loan Officer. He told the Loan Officer that he was going to Paris for an International Redneck Festival for two weeks and needed to borrow $5,000 but that he was not a depositor of the bank.

The bank officer told him that the bank would need some form of security for the loan, so Bubba handed over the keys to a new Ferrari. The car was parked on the street in front of the bank. Bubba produced the title and everything checked out. The loan officer agreed to hold the car as collateral for the loan and apologized for having to charge 12% interest.

Later, the bank's president and its officers all enjoyed a good laugh at the redneck from the South for using a $250,000 Ferrari as collateral for a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drove the Ferrari into the bank's private underground garage and parked it.

Two weeks later, Bubba returned, repaid the $5,000 and the interest of $23.07. The Loan Officer said, "Sir, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out on Dunn & Bradstreet and found that you are a distinguished alumnus from the University of Mississippi,with a graduate degree in business, a highly sophisticated investor andamulti-millionaire with real estate and financial interests all over the world. Your investments include a large number of oil wells around Sweetwater, Texas.

What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"

The good ole boy replied, "Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $23.07 and expect it to be there when I return?"

Keep an eye on those southern boys!

Just because we talk funny does not mean we are stupid.

Mary Clancy goes up to Father O'Grady after his Sunday morning service, and she's in tears. He says, "So what's bothering you, dear?"

She says, "Oh, Father, I've got terrible news. My husband passed away last night."

The priest says, "Oh, Mary, that's terrible. Tell me, Mary, did he have any last requests?"

She says, "That he did, Father..."

The priest says, "What did he ask, Mary?"

She says, "He said, 'Please, Mary, put down that darned gun!'"

So this guy shows up at our door just now. He is travelling around or perhaps just sought us out (he is interested in my husband's work in metaphysics). If I'm not mistaken, my husband invited him to pitch his tent on our property (I rolled up on this on my ATV). The guy looks like a surfer dude and is well-spoken so I guess I'm okay with it. I did remind my husband of a number of things he needed to get done around the ranch so we can put the kid to work, lol.

Be carefull of wolves in sheeps clothing.

I'm with tiger; this type of story is very familiar to me.

Grandchildren are the payoff for being a parent ! You can spoil them rotten, and send them home to THEIR parents !!!

Things are not always as they seem. Watch your back.

Yeah, mo kidding - managed to steer the kid off our property by having him tag along while we ran errands then grabbing a bite and parting ways. A couple of comments he made were a little off but he seemed alright as long as he was off out ptoperty!

I feel relieved. I just had a bad feeling about this. I go by my gut instinct. This was not good.

Thanks for your concern, Tiger1 and Chrit. The kid was actually pretty innocuous but you never know. He was a slight surfer dude type with those goofy running shoes with the toes. Still, I made him follow us in his car and we drove over to a property we had in a neghboring town and mowed the lawn (I put him to work weeding, lol). Driving over to the restaurant, I said to my husband, "vegan", and sure enough he was. Still, I made it clear to my husband that we would part ways in town and under no circumstances was he coming back to the ranch.

I had to really put my foot down, but I was really annoyed that he would invite someone to camp at our ranch without conferring with me! And somebody who just shows up at your door - how weird is that? (Well, it has happened before, but still.)

Magnificent!

An elderly couple were driving across the country.
The woman was driving when she got pulled over by the highway patrol.
The officer said, "Ma'am did you know you were speeding?"

The woman, hard of hearing, turns to her husband and asks, "What did he say?"

The old man yells, "He says you were speeding!"

The patrolman says, "May I see your license?"

The woman turns to her husband and asks again, "What did he say?"

The old man yells, "He wants to see your license!"

The woman gave the officer her license.

The patrolman says, "I see you are from Arkansas. I spent some time there once and went on a blind date with the ugliest woman I've ever seen."

The woman turned to her husband and asked, "What did he say?"

And the old man yells, "He said he knows you!"

LOL !!! :)

Psych!!! how have you been? This is amazing!

Hi Dease!

I am good, busy but good. Thanks for asking. How are you doing in sweet home Alabama?

I'm doing well. We're getting ready for Hurricane Issac. I love to watch the storms come in...great movie weather!

Be safe !

The businessman dragged himself home and barely made it to his chair before he dropped, exhausted.

His sympathetic wife was right there with a tall cool drink and a comforting word.

"My, you look tired," she said. "You must have had a hard day today. What happened to make you so exhausted?"

"It was terrible," her husband said, "The computer broke down and all of us had to do our own thinking."

My oldest daughter is getting her teeth extracted tomorrow morning at 9am. The office has no equipment to knock her out. They will numb her. All of her uppers and half of the bottom teeth have to go. They are supposed to give her immediate dentures. Tomorrow is going to be a rough day. :(
