Gas Price Comparison ...

Gas Prices vs ?

People have been complaining about the rising price of gasoline recently, but I have always thought that gas was a good value (especially if you were to take the $0.30, $0.40 per gallon tax off at the pump)! Obviously others need a little convincing. So an article in "Autoweek" magazine brought it all to light. What if you were to buy a gallon of . . .


- Diet Snapple 16 oz for $1.29 = $10.32 per gallon


- Lipton Ice Tea 16 oz for $1.19 = $9.52 per gallon


- Gatorade 20 oz for $1.59 = $10.17 per gallon


- Ocean Spray 16 oz for $1.25 = $10.00 per gallon


- Quart of Milk 16 oz for $1.59 = $6.32 per gallon


- Evian (water) 9 oz for $1.49 = $21.19 per gallon


- STP Brake Fluid 12 oz for $3.15 = $33.60 per gallon


- Vicks Nyquil 6 oz for $8.35 = $178.13 per gallon


- Pepto Bismol 4 oz for $3.85 = $123.20 per gallon


- Whiteout 7 oz for $1.39 = $254.17 per gallon


- Scope 1.5 oz for $0.99 = $84.84 per gallon


So next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on Nyquil or Scope or Whiteout!

Menopause Jewelry


My husband, being unhappy with my mood swings,
bought me a mood ring the other day so he would
be able to monitor my moods.


We've discovered that when I'm in a good mood, it
turns green. When I'm in a bad mood, it leaves a big red mark on his forehead.


Maybe next time he'll buy me a diamond

Ponderings ...

Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?

Why are there interstate highways in Hawaii?

Why are there flotation devices under plane seats instead of parachutes?

Why are cigarettes sold in gas stations when smoking is prohibited there?

Why do fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?

If you can't drink and drive, why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor, and why do bars have parking lots?

Do you need a silencer if you are going to shoot a mime?

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

How does the guy who drives the snowplow get to work in the mornings?

If 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors?

Expert on Parenting ...

(The following is a true story written by an educational psychologist and her experience on a plane.)

On a flight to Florida, I was preparing my notes for one of the parent-education seminars I conduct as an educational psychologist.

The elderly woman sitting next to me explained that she was returning to Miami after having spent two weeks visiting her six children, 18 grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren in Boston.

Then she inquired what I did for a living.

I told her, fully expecting her to question me for free professional advice.

Instead she sat back, picked up a magazine and said, "If there's anything you want to know, just ask me."

A letter you don't want to receive.......

Dear dad

A father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished
to see that his
bed was nicely made and everything was picked up.
Then he saw an
envelope propped up prominently on the pillow that
was addressed to
"Dad."

With the worst premonition he opened the envelope
with trembling
hands and read the letter.

Dear Dad:

It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing
you. I had to elope with my new girlfriend because I
wanted to avoid a scene with Mom and you.

I have been finding real passion with Stacy and she
is so nice. But
I knew you would not approve of her because of all
her piercing's,
tattoos, tight motorcycle clothes and the fact that
she is much
older than I am. But it's not only the passion...Dad
she's pregnant.
Stacy said that we will be very happy. She owns a
trailer in the
woods and has a stack of firewood for the whole
winter.

We share a dream of having many more children.

Stacy has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana
doesn't really
hurt anyone. We'll be growing it for ourselves and
trading it with the
other people that live nearby for cocaine and
ecstasy. In the meantime,
we will pray that science will find a cure for AIDS
so Stacy can get
better. She deserves it.

Don't worry Dad. I'm 15 and I know how to take care
of myself.
Someday I'm sure that we will be back to visit so
that you can get
to know your grandchildren.

Love,
Your Son John

PS. Dad, none of the above is true I'm over at
Tommy's house. I just
wanted to remind you that there are worse things in
life than the
report card that's in my center desk drawer.

I love you. Call me when it's safe to come home.

Snake Solves Problem ...

I was driving down a lonely country road one cold winter day when it began to sleet pretty heavily. My windows were getting icy and my wiper blades were badly worn and quickly fell apart under the strain.

Unable to drive any further because of the ice building up on my front window I suddenly had a great idea. I stopped and began to overturn large rocks until I located two very lethargic hibernating rattle snakes. I grabbed them up, straightened them out flat and installed them on my blades and they worked just fine.

What! You've never heard of . . . wind chilled vipers?

Medicare In A Nutshell

The phone rings and the lady of the house answers, "Hello."

"Mrs. Ward, please."

"Speaking."

"Mrs. Ward, this is Doctor Jones at the Medical Testing Laboratory. When your doctor sent your husband's biopsy to the lab yesterday, a biopsy from another Mr. Ward arrived as well, and we are now uncertain which one is your husband's. Frankly the results are either bad or terrible."

"What do you mean?" Mrs. Ward asks nervously.

"Well, one of the specimens tested positive for Alzheimer's and the other one tested positive for AIDS. We can't tell which your husband's is."

"That's dreadful! Can't you do the test again?" questioned Mrs. Ward.

"Normally we can, but Medicare will only pay for these expensive tests one time."

"Well, what am I supposed to do now?"

"The people at Medicare recommend that you drop your husband off somewhere in the middle of town. If he finds his way home, don't sleep with him."

Dear Ma and Pa:
Am well. Hope you are. Tell brother Walt and brother Elmer the Army beats working for old man Minch by a mile. Tell them to join up quick before maybe all the places are filled. I was restless at first because you got to stay in bed till nearly 5 a.m., but am getting so I like to sleep late. Tell Walt and Elmer all you do before breakfast is smooth your cot and shine some things -- no hogs to slop, feed to pitch, mash to mix, wood to split, fire to lay.
Practically nothing. Men got to shave, but it ain't bad, they git warm water. Breakfast is strong on trimmings like fruit juice, cereal, eggs, bacon, etc., but kinda weak on chops, potatoes, beef, ham, steak, fried eggplant, pie, and regular food. But tell Walt and Elmer you can always sit between two city boys that live on coffee. Their food plus yours holds you till noon,
when you get fed again. It aint no
wonder these city boys can't walk much. We go on "route marches," which, the Sgt. says, are long walks to harden us. If he thinks so, it is not my place to tell him different. A "route march" is about as far as to our mailbox at home. Then the city guys all get sore feet and we ride back in trucks.
The country is nice, but awful flat.
The Sgt. is like a schoolteacher. He nags some. The Capt. is like the school board. Colonels and Generals just ride around and frown. They don't bother noone. This next will kill Walt and Elmer with laughing. I keep gettin medals for shootin. I don't know why. The bull's-eye is near as big as a chipmunk and don't move. And it ain't shooting back, like the Higgett boys at home. All you got to do is lay there all comfortable and hit it. You don't even load your own cartridges. They come in boxes. Be sure to tell Walt and Elmer to hurry and join up before other fellows get onto this setup and come stampeding in.


Yore lovin daughter,

Gail
P.S. Speakin of shootin, enclosed is $200 for barn roof and ma's teeth. The city boys shoot craps,
but not very good

I was at home the other night in the middle of my dinner when the phone rang.
ME: Hello.
VERIZON: Hello, this is VERIZON ....
ME: Is this VERIZON?
VERIZON: Yes, this is VERIZON ..
ME: This is VERIZON?
VERIZON: Yes, this is VERIZON ..
ME: Is this VERIZON?
VERIZON: Yes! This is VERIZON, may I speak to Mrs. Herrera, please?
ME: May I ask who is calling?
VERIZON: This is VERIZON.
ME: Ok, hold on. At this point I put the phone down for a solid 5 minutes thinking that, surely, this person would have hung up the phone. I ate my salad. Much to my surprise, when I picked up the receiver, they were still waiting.
ME: Hello?
VERIZON: Is this Mrs. Herrera?
ME: May I ask who is calling, please?
VERIZON: Yes, this is VERIZON ..
ME: This is VERIZON?
VERIZON: Yes, this is VERIZON ...
ME: The phone company?
VERIZON: Yes, mam.
ME: I thought you said this was VERIZON.
VERIZON: Yes, mam, we are a phone company.
ME: I already have a phone.
VERIZON: We aren't selling phones today, Mrs. Herrera. We would like to offer you 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
ME: Now, that's 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day?
VERIZON: (getting a little excited at this point by my interest)Yes, mam, that's right! 24 hours a day!
ME: 7 days a week?
VERIZON: That's right.
ME: 365 days a year?
VERIZON: Yes, mam.
ME: I am definitely interested in that! Wow!!! That's amazing!
VERIZON: We think so!
ME: That's quite a sum of money!
VERIZON: Yes, mam, it's amazing how it adds up.
ME: Ok, so will you send me checks weekly, monthly or just one big one at the end of the year for the full $52,560; and if you send an annual check, can I get a cash advance?
VERIZON: Excuse me?
ME: You know, the 10 cents a minute.
VERIZON: What are you talking about?
ME: You said you'd give me 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That comes to $144 per day, $1008 per week and $52,560 per year. I'm just interested in knowing how you will be making payment.
VERIZON: Oh, no, mam, I didn't mean we'd be paying you. You pay us 10 cents a minute.
ME: Wait a minute, how do you figure that by saying that you'll give me 10 cents a minute, that I'll give YOU 10 cents a minute? Is this some kind of subliminal telemarketing scheme? I've read about things like this is in the Enquirer, you know.
VERIZON:! No, mam, we are offering 10 cents a minute for ...
ME: THERE YOU GO AGAIN! Can I speak to a supervisor please?
VERIZON: Mam, I don't think that is necessary.
ME: I insist on speaking to a supervisor!
VERIZON: Yes, Mrs. Herrera. Please hold. At this point, I begin trying to finish my dinner.
SUPERVISOR: Mrs. Herrera?
ME: Yeth?
SUPERVISOR: I understand you are not quite understanding our 10 cents a minute program.
ME: Is this the supervisor?
SUPERVISOR: Yes, mam, it sure is.
ME: (I had to swallow before I choked on my food. It was all I could do to suppress my laughter and I had to be careful not to produce a
snort.) No, actually, I was just waiting for someone to get back to me so that I could sign up for the plan.
SUPERVISOR: Ok, no problem, I'll transfer you back to the person who was helping you.
ME: Thank you. I was on hold once again and managed a few more mouthfuls. I need to end this conversation.
Suddenly, there was an aggravated but polite voice at the other end of the phone.
VERIZON: Hello, Mrs. Herrera, I understand that you are interested in signing up for our plan?
ME: No, but I was wondering - do you have that "Friends and Family"
thing because I'm an only child and I'd really like to have a little brother.
VERIZON: click........

Southern Grandma

Lawyers should never ask a Southern grandma a question if they aren't prepared
for the answer.

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness,
a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her and asked,
"Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"

She responded, "Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since
you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me.
You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about them
behind their backs. You think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to
realize you never will amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher.
Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across the room
and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?"

She again replied, "Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster,
too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship
with anyone and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention
he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes,
I know him."

The defense attorney almost died.


The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice said,

"If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you
to the electric chair."

WHO IS JACK SCHITT

For some time many of us have wondered just who is Jack Schitt?

We find ourselves at a loss when someone says, 'You don't know Jack Schitt!'
Well, thanks to my genealogy efforts, you can now respond in an intellectual way.

Jack Schitt is the only son of Awe Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate,
married O. Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt, Inc. They had one son, Jack.

In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt. The deeply religi ous couple produced six children: Holie Schitt, Giva Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt..

Against her parents' objections, Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school
dropout. After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married Ted Sherlock, and because her kids were living with them, she wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt Sherlock.

Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt, and they produced a son with a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Schitt. Two of the other six children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony. The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens nuptials. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Horse.

Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new Italian bride, Pisa Schitt.

Now when someone says, 'You don't know Jack Schitt,' you can correct them.

Sincerely,
Crock O. Schitt

Are you missing a 710 ? ...

Yesterday I was having some work done at the car Dealer.
A gorgeous blonde woman came in and asked for a Seven-hundred-ten. They all looked at each other, and one Mechanic asked, "What is a seven-hundred-ten?"
She replied, "You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine. I lost it and need a new one. It had always been there."

The mechanic gave the woman a piece of paper and a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like.

She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710.

He then took her over to another car which had the hood up and asked, "Is
there a 710 on this car?"

She pointed and said, "Of course, silly, it's right there!.................."

(scroll down to identity of the mysterious 710 ...)
