I decided to start a joke discussion because we as caregivers need our load lightened. We need to laugh at our own situations and those of others to take away the sting and pain we go through. If you have a joke that's racy then give a heads up at the beginning of your post for those who might not want to read your post. We need to avoid that kind of humor. Please don't come on this thread and berate anyone for their choices of humor. This is our place to let go of criticism. Thanks for sharing!!!! ;o)
Shakespeare was a genius in creating methods to address specific issues, or trends.
ITRR and PolarBear. have either of you read The Flight Girls, by Noelle Salazar? I've read it-6, perhaps 7, times. It's set in WWII just before 7 Dec., during the attack and up through the end of WWII.
There's a fair amount of "pilot talk"; I liked the expression "flat hatting." I hadn't heard that before.
It's also a blend of history, war, interpersonal actions, women in WWII, POWs and life after WWII. I think it's probably the best historical novel blended with personal lives that I've ever read.
The term that always troubles me when flying is ‘dead reckoning’. One that I like ‘the sky is not the limit, the ground is.’ Very true when landing. And for those who like Star Wars ‘May the four forces be with you’ which refers to the four forces that keep the planes in the air.
Coursera is great, many different classes, everything under the sun!
‘Oh shut up Balders. You’d laugh at a Shakespeare comedy’: Rowan Atkinson in Blackadder
I feel that no girl would go to the altar if she knew all.
I don’t dislike babies, though I think very young ones rather disgusting.
An ugly baby is a very nasty object, and the prettiest is frightful when undressed.
These events are more like what a script for a holiday event would be if written by Gary Larson (The Far Side) supported by folks who wrote satire for "The Onion."
Helps remind us not to take it all too seriously, that everyone is playing a well earned role and that any slips out of character will be severely dealt with.
We also plan to do our own 'holiday thing' later on. Works for us.
Those of you who are placing Christmas lights/decorations in your yards, would you please avoid anything that has Red or Blue flashing lights together? Every time I come around the corner, I think it's the police and I have a panic attack. I have to brake hard, toss my beer out the window, fasten my seat belt, throw my phone on the floor, turn my radio down, and push the gun under the seat. All while trying to drive.
It's just too much drama, even for Christmas. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding this year!
People passing by won't know whether to stop by or go away! 🚧🚫🛑✅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In other words, I agree the world is freaking nuts! No one knows if they are coming or going.
Black Friday is when we rush out to the stores and trample on each other to buy things after the day we said we were thankful for the things we had.
At the evening service tonight the sermon topic will be “What is Hell?” Come early and listen to our choir practice.
This Sunday being Easter Sunday we will ask Mrs. Lewis to come forward and lay an egg on the alter.
Mrs. Jones will sing “Put Me In My Little Bed” accompanied by the pastor.
We are so happy that we got the GPS option on her hearing aids!
So Santa's sleigh is actually pulled by a team of females.
Of course it is.
Even though they have mostly male names.
In modern times, Santa is recognized as having 9 reindeer- Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, and Rudolph.
(Yeah, I’m a guy and I’ve been lost before. Did I ask for directions? Uhhh……..).
If psychics can tell the future, why would you need to use them again?
Patient: "What do you mean, 10? 10 what? Months? Weeks?!"
Doctor: "Nine."
And why some men want two or more is a bigamystery.

here’s my joke of the day:
sometimes someone unexpected comes into your life out of nowhere, makes your heart race & changes you forever…
we call these people cops.
