Need a laugh?

17 years ago

I found this on another message board that I read everyday.

Growing Old

A couple had been married for 40 years and also celebrated their 60th birthdays.

During the celebration, a fairy appeared and said that because they had been such a loving couple all these years, she would give them one wish each.

Being the faithful, loving spouse for all these years, naturally the wife wanted for herself and her husband to have a romantic vacation together, so she wished for them to travel around the world.

The fairy waved her wand and boom! ... The wife had the tickets in her hand.

Next, it was the husband's turn and the fairy assured him he could have any wish he wanted, all he needed to do was ask for his heart's desire.

He paused for a moment, and then said, "Well, honestly, I'd like to have a woman 30 years younger than me."

The fairy picked up her wand and kazoom! ...

The husband turned 90!

This thread is so timely. I had planned on repotting my gar***ia (too afraid to speak its name LOL!!) this week. I got it last spring and potted it into potting soil that turned out to basically turn into an adobe brick, and weighs as much! I got my new soil last week but still have not done it. The poor thing is surviving in the brick, when watered the water goes right down the sides of the pot, not even into the dirt! It is hanging on by a thread with half nice growth, some new growth and sticks that are withering away, turning upside-down and dying. Probably trying to look down to see what the hell it is potted in! LOL! What to do, what to doÃ¢ÂÂ¦ Okay. Michael just came in and said "I'll pot that up in a New York minute!". He used to grow them in Australia, "Piece of piss to do!", as the Aussies say. Of course, he quickly followed that by saying "Lost them there, too.... too much sun!" LOL!! Oh my.

Need a laugh :-) Pepper stories

Mine: When I bought a "banana pepper" seedling, and anxiously waited for it to give me some nice, sweet peppers to eat. I was so excited when I clipped off my first one, that I took a nice big bite out of it (I love eating raw sweet peppers). Turns out it was not marked right when I bought it, and was a hot hungarian wax pepper plant. Boy was I surprised, and that was only surprise #1. I then took my peppers inside, and cleaned the guts out to take some of the heat away, so I could snack on it. Well, I forgot to wash my hands afterwards, and proceeded to take care of an itch just inside my nostril. My nose started burning, but it didn't dawn on me why until I went to the bathroom to go #1........ Joe

You know, you should be able to see what his IP address is. Then look it up and you can see where he's located. Looks like this and should be at the bottom of the email he sent you: IP addresses consist of four numbers separated by periods (also called a 'dotted-quad') and look something like 127.0.0.1. The strange thing is that nothing like this text comes up when googling. It sounds quite personalized. Are you sure it couldn't be from a friend or relative who's trying to invite you to Monaco for Valentine's Day? Here is a link that might be useful: IP address

Oh, no -- too funny! Sounds just like something a helpful kid would do. I remember those days, especially that TV ad showing a lady in an evening gown with the voice-over that said, "Modess...because." I asked adults what that meant, and nobody wanted to tell me. (Now the ads for such supplies are so blatant I'm embarrassed)

Goes to show....be careful of what you wish for. Did you hear about the guy who was given one wish and he wished to be a Stud! Next time he was seen, he was in a snow tire in Duluth Minnesota. Yuk! Yuk! Dottie

Then there is the man who told his wife he needed to get away for a while,and went to great vacation site. He was enjoying his stay and emailed his wife this message: "Feel like a new man. Staying a while longer."

His wife emailed back: "So do I. Stay as long as you like."

Kayjones,
Husband and wife were both 60, husband wanted a woman 30 years younger than him, so the fairy made him 90 which was 30 years older than his wife who was still 60, hence his wife was 30 years younger than him.

Kay - he meant that he wanted a 30 year old woman. Instead, he became 90.
