Christmas Already?

I know it's getting hard to accept the fact that we are heading toward the most expensive time of the year.  I have gotten to the point of dreading this time of year and this takes away from the actual theme.  I try to stay with  stocking stuffer ideas   in hopes of giving and still saving money with these items.  I can admit that saving money has become the structure behind my gift giving.  It's necessary to shop better with the way the economy has become.

Old Lady

In church on Sunday,
I overheard this little old lady
in the pew next to
me
saying a short private prayer.
It was so sweet and sincere
that I
just had to share it with you:


Dear Lord,
These past couple of years
have been tough....
You have taken my

      favorite
Actor Patrick Swayze,
my favorite actress Elizabeth Taylor,
my favorite
Cowboy James Arness,
my favorite athlete Bob Feller,
my favorite singer
Lena Horne and
my favorite salesman Billy Mays.
I just wanted you to know that my
favorite president is Barack Obama.
Amen.

Detox

 I'm sure you know that things are never changed until the person, really wants to change.  The fact that they go to  alcohol detox  only suggest that they realize there is a problem.  Making this treatment work, is the endurance that comes from the actual person's desire to have a different life.  Until they actually try or have the desire, then nothing will work and treatment it too costly to waste on people who are just playing around.

Thomas Jefferson

"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." –- Thomas Jefferson

So True......


"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." --Thomas Jefferson
 

God Loves Drunks......Too

A man and his wife were awakened at 3:00 am by a loud pounding on the door. 

The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.


"Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3:00 in the morning!"


He slams the door and returns to bed.


"Who was that?" asked his wife..
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers.

"Did you help him?" she asks.


 "No, I did not, it's 3am in the morning and it's bloody pouring rain out there!"


"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys helped us? 


I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!
God loves drunk people too  you know.


The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain.


He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"


"Yes," comes back the answer.


 "Do you still need a push?" calls out the husband.

"Yes, please!" comes the reply from the dark.


"Where are you?" asks the husband
.


"Over here on the swing," replied the drunk..

Old Is.......

 When.....
A sexy babe or hunk catches your fancy  

and your pacemaker opens the garage door.



When.....
Going braless  

pulls all the wrinkles out of your face.


 When.....
You don't care where your spouse goes,  

just as long as you don't have to go along.


When.....
You are cautioned to slow down by the doctor instead of by the police
