TGIF

More weirdness....I was on my way to the gym after work and I saw a man walking up the median of a major highway carrying a big cross on his shoulder! Right in the middle of rush hour traffic. He did not look like a religious figure (as he was not wearing a robe or religious attire of any kind). He was wearing a nice casual shirt and khaki pants. What the heck?????

~xo~xo~xo~xo

I saw a little scrawny stray cat in a parking lot of the grocery store on Wednesday. I felt so sad for him that I went home after work and got some cat food. Then I drove back. It had been several hours since I had seen him, so I wasn't sure if the little cat would still be there. I just know he was hungry. When I pulled up, the little cat was lying on the pavement. I got out of my car and placed a little bowl filled with cat food, down near the curb of the grass median. Even though I had not gotten too close, the cat ran off when I got out of the car. I waited in my car for a while and he did not come back. I went into the store, got a few things, then drove back by. He was still not around. I hope he finds the food.

I drove back over to the parking lot on Thursday. There was no sign of the cat and the little bowl of cat food was no longer there. I suppose someone cleaned the parking lot and threw it away. I did drive around the parking lot to see if the cat was still there, but I never saw him. I hope he will be all right. :(

The President of the United States ~ George W. Bush, was in Birmingham yesterday. Nothing else special to notate other than it is not every day the President comes to town. (Unless you live in D.C.)

I get to do something fun next month (in October)....Art on the Rocks!
I think it will be great fun.
Do any of you have any fun stuff coming up?

Have a great weekend everyone!
Love you all!

THINGS HALLMARK CARDS DON'T SAY:

My tire was thumping. I thought it was flat. When I looked at the tire... I noticed your cat.

Sorry! Heard your wife left you, how upset you must be. But don't fret about it... She moved in with me.

Looking back over the years that we've been together, I can't help but wonder... "What the hell was I thinking?"

Congratulations on your wedding day! Too bad no one likes your wife.

How could two people as beautiful as you have such an ugly baby?

I've always wanted to have someone to hold, someone to love. After having met you .. I've changed my mind.

I must admit, you brought Religion into my life. I never believed in hell until I met you.

As the days go by, I think of how lucky I am... That you're not here to ruin it for me.

Congratulations on your promotion. Before you go... Would you like to take this knife out of my back? You'll probably need it again.

Happy birthday! You look great for your age. Almost lifelike!

When we were together, you always said you'd die for me. Now that we've broken up, I think it's time you kept your promise.

We have been friends for a very long time .. let's say we stop?

I'm so miserable without you it's almost like you're here.

So your daughter's a hooker, and it spoiled your day. Look at the bright side, it's really good pay.

Some of the things I see...

I drove past the outside patio at work the other day. It is shaded with big trees. There were a group of people gathered for an outdoor meeting...I thought that was cool. I wish our company would have some of our meetings outdoors.



I walked onto my balcony yesterday. It was a bizarre scene. I found a few striplike pieces of wood lying on the table and the floor. There were about 8 large nails lying on the table, floor and the two chairs. And...there was a large wasp nest lying on the floor under one of the chairs. How did these things get there? My balcony is on the second floor and not close to any other balconies. The night before, it had rained hard with lightening and thunder, but I doubt the wind was blowing hard enough to bring these items up to my balcony and drop them. Extremely perplexing.



Someone said they saw a bobcat in the parking lot at my "castle". They said it was a large cat, almost the size of a medium dog, had full furry face and was carrying a fairly large object in it's mouth. It turned and ran up the hill into the woods with great speed. Do bobcats live in this area?



I saw a gorilla standing in the middle of the highway (on the median) yesterday. No, nevermind...when I got closer I realized it was just my eyes playing tricks on me.

This is what I thought I saw....but it wasn't! ;)


Anything unusual going on with you?
Have a great day!

I guess I am just curious ...

Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity.
- Albert Einstein



If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z, X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut.

I don't believe in mathematics.
- Albert Einstein



Truth is what stands the test of experience.
- Albert Einstein



The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.
- Albert Einstein



I am neither especially clever nor especially gifted. I am only very, very curious.
- Albert Einstein



Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.
- Mark Twain



Noise proves nothing. Often a hen who has merely laid an egg cackles as if she has laid an asteroid.

If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man.

If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything.

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark. The real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.

Have a great Monday!

Peeping Tom

First I want to thank EVERY ONE of you for making my birthday so special. As a couple of my Scottish friends would say, I am a "fortunate creature" to have so many friends here. I hope you enjoyed my birthday party as much as I did. Thank you again for all of the birthday wishes. I love you all.


This girl I know lives on the 4th floor of an apartment, and even though it is a fairly good neighborhood, she has been having trouble with a Peeping Tom that lives next door...

Every time she goes out on her balcony to catch a bit of sun while wearing her bikini, this Peeping Tom looks over from his balcony as soon as she removes her top, and stares at her...

She has complained to the superintendent about this Peeping Tom, but he says she must have positive proof before he can do a thing --


She FINALLY got a picture of him while he was staring at her.




















Have a wonderful weekend!

Looks kinda scary to me!

Parking in Munich!

::Gulp::

How do they lock each car in its cubicle for safety.
WHO CARES. NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND COULD GET IN THERE.
Talk about German efficiency!
The photo above was taken at a new parking garage in Munich.
The actual space that the facility occupies is approximately only 20% of a comparable facility with the traditional design that is used primarily in the US.
Not only is the German structure less expensive to build, but vehicles are also "retrieved" in less time and without the potential of being damaged by an attendant.

What do you think?

Have a great day!

Monday morning stuff

Friday my boss came around to all of us and said if we got to a stopping point, we could leave early. That was nice even though it was only 15 minutes early.
I decided since I had nothing else to do, I would let it be champagne Friday and have a pre-birthday celebration. (My birthday is not until Thursday). I ran out of steam faster than I thought I would, I didn't even finish the bottle. So, I guess I will have a little champagne left for my actual birthday.

Saturday I got a fairly good amount of housework and laundry done . Then I decided to get out of the house. I wanted to watch the game and just be around other people. Sooooo, I went to Hooters, had one beer and watched Auburn beat LSU! Wooohooo...War Eagle! Then, I filled up my tank and got my car washed. The gas only cost $26. It was $2.39 a gallon. (I hate to even say it, but that is good...in comparison to what it has been). From there, I drove to the mall and bought some makeup.
My friend came over and we decided we wanted to go to a movie. She said she was hungry, so we went to Superior Grill. I had some cheese dip and chips, as I was not too hungry. I also had a couple of frozen margaritas. They DO have the best margaritas in town. Then we went to see The Black Dahlia. I have to say, it was boring and seemed endless. The best part of the whole movie was Josh Hartnett's naked backside. Oh yeah!

Guys, you would have thought the best part was Scarlett Johansson's naked backside.
Anyway, thank goodness the movie was free. I didn't waste my money, only my free ticket.
My company has an employee fitness incentive program. They give two free movie tickets each month if you exercise a certain many hours each week. We just have to complete a log sheet with a description of the exercise and the amount of time.

Sunday I did more laundry and some grocery shopping.
Lazy, do nothing Sunday.

It was a gorgeous day though and it was my brother's birthday! Happy birthday brother.

That was my weekend, what did you do?

Have a great Monday!

Guys...If you do this...you are a keeper!

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot.
Who calls you back when you hang up on him.
Who will stay awake just to watch you sleep.
Wait for the guy who kisses your forehead.
Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats.
Who holds your hand in front of his friends.
Wait for the one who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you.
Wait for the one who turns to his friends and says, "...that's her."

Mushy, I know...I guess I just need a little tlc.

Love you all

You're like a championship bass, I don't know if I should mount you or eat you.

Are you a parking ticket cause you have fine written all over you.

Do you have a good one that you don't see here?
;)

How do you start your week?

I know everyone has seen those pictures of what people do to someone else's desk while they are out of the office. (Like wrapping everything in aluminum foil).

Well, not too long ago...
... two of my friends at work and myself "decorated" our boss's office one morning before he came in. We didn't have much time, but did the best we could with post-it notes.
The pictures don't really do it justice because it looked much better from inside the room.

We had the post-it notes all over the fronts and backs of the chairs, covering every picture hanging on the wall to the right side of his desk, covering the entire desk, credenza, book shelf, computer, monitor and even inside the leaves of his ficus tree.






He was slightly amuzed.
We didn't get the kind of response we had hoped for.
We helped him clean it up. It took a lot longer to clean up than to mess up!
Well, he is the boss!

Have you ever done anything like this?

Here is to having a good Monday!

This is a true story....

I was listening to the radio the other morning and a young lady was in the studio talking to the two Radio Hosts (djs).

She is a teacher at one of the schools here in Birmingham. She was talking about a day toward the end of summer when the teachers had come to the school to prepare their classroom for the upcoming school year.

As she was organizing her desk, she opened a binder to get a piece of paper when all of the sudden she felt something pierce through her hand like a hot poker with exploding glass being injected into her hand.

When she pulled her hand up, a copperhead snake was clinched onto her hand injecting venom into her hand. It bit her three times.

The snake had been curled up in the pocket part of the binder. Of course she did what anyone would do (at least what I would do)....screamed and flung her hand as hard as she could. The snake released and dropped to the floor by her feet.
Now at this point, the Radio Hosts were reacting so loudly that I did not actually hear if she killed the snake or how it was killed, but the snake ended up dead somehow.

She ran to her door and saw a man on a balcony on the second floor. She called over to him saying "Excuse me, I have been bitten by a snake, could you get someone from the office". He looked at her with confusion, so she repeated it. At this point she realized he was of foreign descent and did not understand her.
So, she ran down the hall, down stairs and to the office. When she told them she had been bitten by a snake, of course, they were in shock, and called for paramedics.

While waiting for them to arrive, someone had put ice on it, but the hospital told her to take the ice off and keep her hand downward (below her heart).
Since the hospital staff was notified by the paramedics, they were ready with the anti-venom medicine when she got there. She said her hand had swollen so much that she could not touch her fingers together and it was swollen all the way up to her armpit.

She was given the anti-venom (18 vials) and had no bad reaction from it.
It saved her life.

The bill came in from the hospital.

Guess how much the anti-venom cost.
.... $51,700!!!!

Lucky for her, she said she had a $100 deductible, and that was all she had to pay. Wow, this was incredible.
I couldn't believe this really happened.
I am terrified of snakes.
I don't know if I could have been that calm.

What'd you say?

First-year students at Texas A&M's Vet School were receiving their first anatomy class, with a real dead cow.
They all gathered around the surgery table with the body covered with a white sheet.
The professor started the class by telling them,
"In vet medicine, it is necessary to have two important qualities as a doctor:
The first is that you not be disgusted by anything involving the animal body.
For an example, the Professor pulled back the sheet, stuck his finger in the butt of the dead cow, withdrew it and stuck his finger in his mouth.
"Go ahead and do the same thing," he told his students.
The students freaked out, hesitated for several minutes. But eventually took turns sticking a finger in the anal opening of the dead cow and sucking on it.
When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and told them,
"The second most important quality is observation.
I stuck in my middle finger and sucked on my index finger.
Now learn to pay attention."




:D

Happy Hump day everyone!
