I asked my wife, She-who-knows-all-things-fashion, and she says LV stands for Louis Vitton, very fashionable, very exclusive and very expensive. I hope she doesnt develop a taste for high end stuff like that.

OK, time to turn off the radio, pull out the 8 Track, and get back to some serious humor, fun, games, links, and the occasional educational post. (For those of you too young to know what an 8 track is--just ask your dad.)


Da Mook sent me these so I pass them along to yall. [:p]




People over 25 should be dead...to the survivors:

According to today's regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who were
kids in the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's probably shouldn't have survived.

Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paint. We had no
childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets, and when we rode our
bikes, we had no helmets. (Not to mention the risks we took hitchhiking.)

As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.
Riding in the back of a pickup truck on a warm day was always a special treat.
We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle. Horrors!
We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle, and no one
actually died from this.

We ate cupcakes, bread and butter, and drank soda pop with sugar in
it, but we were never overweight because we were always outside playing..

We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we
were back when the street lights came on.
No one was able to reach us all day. No cell phones. Unthinkable.
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then rode down
the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into
the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.
We did not have Playstations, Nintendo 64, X-Boxes, no video games at
all, no 99 channels on cable, video tape movies, surround sound, personal
cell phones, personal computers, or Internet chat rooms.

We had friends! We went outside and found them.
We fell out of trees, got cut and broke bones and teeth,and there were
no lawsuits from these accidents.

We made up games with sticks and tennis balls and ate worms, and
although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes, nor did
the worms live inside us forever.

We rode bikes or walked to a friend's home and knocked on the door, or
rang the bell or just walked in and talked to them.

Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team.
Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment.
The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke a law was unheard of.
They actually sided with the law. Imagine that!

This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers and problem
solvers and inventors, ever. The past 50 years have been an explosion
of innovation and new ideas.

We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all.

And you're one of them!

Congratulations. Please pass this on to others who have had the luck
to grow up as kids, before lawyers and government regulated our lives,
for our own good.

Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors?

Subject: Kids say the darndest things..........



What Is Love?

Just in case we forgot.......

What is Love?
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4
to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?" The answers they got were
broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined:

"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and
paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the
time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love."
Rebecca - age 8

"When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.
You know that your name is safe in their mouth." Billy - age 4

"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your
french fries without making them give you any of theirs."
Chrissy - age 6

"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired." Terri - age 4

"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she
takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."
Danny - age 7

"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop
opening presents and listen." Bobby - age 7

"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a
friend who you hate." Nikka - age 6

"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it
everyday." Noelle - age 7

"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are
still friends even after they know each other so well."
Tommy - age 6

"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and scared. I looked
at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and
smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore."
Cindy - age 8

"My mo mmy loves me more than anybody. You don't see anyone
else kissing me to sleep at night." Clare - Age 6

"Love is when mommy gives daddy the best piece of chicken."
Lisa - age 6

"Love is when mommy sees daddy smelly and sweaty and still
says he is handsomer than Robert Redford." Chris - age 7

"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him
alone all day." Linda - age 4

"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old
clothes and has to go out and buy new ones." Lauren - age 4

"I let my big sister pick on me because my Momma says she only picks
on me because she loves me. So I pick on my baby sister because I
love her." Bethany - age 4

"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little
stars come out of you." Karen - age 7

"Love is when daddy sees momma on the toilet and she doesn't think
it's gross." Mark - age 6

"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if
you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget." Jessica - age 8

*** The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor
was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon
seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard,
climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his mother asked him
what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, "Nothing, I
just helped him cry."

ok, ok, enough mushy stuff--it makes my eyes leak.
=======================================================

Take This Scientific Quiz to Determine Your Guyness Quotient


1. Alien beings from a highly advanced society visit the Earth, and you
are the first human they encounter. As a token of intergalactic
friendship, they present you with a small but incredibly sophisticated
device that is capable of curing all disease, providing an infinite
supply of clean energy, wiping out hunger and poverty, and permanently
eliminating oppression and violence all over the entire Earth. You
decide to:

a. Present it to the president of the United States.
b. Present it to the secretary general of the United Nations.
c. Take it apart.


2. As you grow older, what lost quality of your youthful life do you
miss the most?

a. Innocence.
b. Idealism.
c. Cherry bombs.


3. When is it okay to kiss another male?

a. When you wi***o display simple and pure affection without regard for
narrow-minded social conventions.
b. When he is the pope. (Not on the lips.)
c. When he is your brother and you are Al Pacino and this is the only
really sportsmanlike way to let him know that, for business reasons, you
have to have him killed.


4. What about hugging another male?

a. If he`s your father and at least one of you has a fatal disease.
b. If you`re performing the Heimlich maneuver. (And even in this case,
you should repeatedly shout: "I am just dislodging food trapped in this
male`s trachea! I am not in any way aroused!")
c. If you`re a professional baseball player and a teammate hits a home
run to win the World Series, you may hug him provided that (1) He is
legally within the basepath, (2) Both of you are wearing protective
cups, and (3) You also pound him fraternally with your fist hard enough
to cause fractures.


5. You have been seeing a woman for several years. She`s attractive and
intelligent, and you always enjoy being with her. One leisurely Sunday
afternoon the two of you are taking it easy-- you`re watching a football
game; she`s reading the papers--when she suddenly, out of the clear blue
sky, tells you that she thinks she really loves you, but she can no
longer bear the uncertainty of not knowing where your relationship is
going. She says she`s not asking whether you want to get married; only
whether you believe that you have some kind of future together. What do
you say?

a. That you sincerely believe the two of you do have a future, but
you don`t want to rush it.
b. That although you also have strong feelings for her, you cannot
honestly say that you`ll be ready anytime soon to make a lasting
commitment, and you don`t want to hurt her by holding out false hope.
c. That you cannot believe the Jets called a draw play on third
and seventeen.


6. Okay, so you have decided that you truly love a woman and you want to
spend the rest of your life with her-sharing the joys and the sorrows,
the triumphs and the tragedies, and all the adventures and opportunities
that the world has to offer, come what may. How do you tell her?

a. You take her to a nice restaurant and tell her after dinner.
b. You take her for a walk on a moonlit beach, and you say her name, and
when she turns to you, with the sea breeze blowing her hair and the
stars in her eyes, you tell her.
c. Tell her what?


7. One weekday morning your wife wakes up feeling ill and asks you to
get your three children ready for school. Your first question to her is:

a. "Do they need to eat or anything?"
b. "They`re in school already?"
c. "There are three of them?"


8. When is it okay to throw away a set of veteran underwear?

a. When it has turned the color of a dead whale and developed new holes
so large that you`re not sure which ones were originally intended for
your legs.
b. When it is down to eight loosely connected underwear molecules and
has to be handled with tweezers.
c. It is never okay to throw away veteran underwear. A real guy checks
the garbage regularly in case somebody--and we are not naming names, but
this would be his wife--is quietly trying to discard his underwear,
which she is frankly jealous of, because the guy seems to have a more
intimate relationship with it than with her.


9. What, in your opinion, is the most reasonable explanation for the
fact that Moses led the Israelites all over the place for forty years
before they finally got to the Promised Land?

a. He was being tested.
b. He wanted them to really appreciate the Promised Land when they
finally got there.
c. He refused to ask directions.


10. What is the human race`s single greatest achievement?

a. Democracy.
b. Religion.
c. Remote control.


How to Score:

Give yourself one point for every time you picked answer "c."A real guy
would score at least 10 on this test.

with all due respects to the ladies of the forum........[:)]




At long last... The Men`s ultimate Guide to what a woman really means
when she says something. Pay close attention (there might be a quiz
later).

She says = She means


You want = You want

We need = I want

It's your decision = The correct decision should be obvious by now.

Do what you want = You'll pay for this later.

We need to talk = I need to complain

Sure... go ahead = I don't want you to.

I'm not upset = Of course I'm upset, you moron!

You're ... so manly = You need a shave and you sweat a lot.

You're certainly attentive tonight. = Is sex all you ever think
about?

I'm not emotional! And I'm not overreacting! = I'm on my period.

Be romantic, turn out the lights. = I have flabby thighs.

This kitchen is so inconvenient = I want a new house.

I want new curtains = and carpeting, and furniture, and wallpaper...

I need wedding shoes = the other 40 pairs are the wrong shade of
white.

Hang the picture there = NO, I mean hang it there!

I heard a noise = I noticed you were almost asleep.

Do you love me? = I'm going to ask for something expensive.

How much do you love me? = I did something today you're really not
going to like.

I'll be ready in a minute. = Kick off your shoes and find a good
game on T.V.

Is my butt fat? = Tell me I'm beautiful.

You have to learn to communicate. = Just agree with me.

Are you listening to me!? = [Too late, you're dead.]

I'm sorry. = You'll be sorry.

Do you like this recipe? = It's easy to fix, so you'd better get
used to it.

Was that the baby? = Why don't you get out of bed and walk him
until he goes to sleep.

I'm not yelling! = Yes I am yelling because I think this is
important.

All we're going to buy is a soap dish = It goes without saying that
we're stopping at the cosmetics department, the shoe department,
I need to look at a few new pocket books, and OMIGOD those pink
sheets would look great in the bedroom and did you bring your
checkbook?

A guy tells his doctor, "I am under a lot of stress. I keep losing my temper with people and insulting them. You gotta help me, doctor!"

The doctor says, "Tell me about your problem."

The guy looks at him and yells, "I just did YOU STUPID S.O.B.!"
======================================================
Lobsters

After a day fishing in the ocean a fisherman is walking from the pier carrying two lobsters in a bucket. He is approached by the Game Warden who asks him for his fishing license.

The fisherman says to the warden, "I did not catch these lobsters, they are my pets. Every day I come done to the water and whistle and these lobsters jump out and I take them for a walk only to return them at the end of the day."

The warden, not believing him, reminds him that it is illegal to fish without a license.

The fisherman turns to the warden and says, "If you don't believe me then watch," as he throws the lobsters back into the water.

The warden says, "Now whistle to your lobsters and show me that they will come out of the water."

The fisherman turns to the warden and says, "What lobsters?"
============================================================
Johnny Can Count

The teacher asked little Johnny if he knows his numbers.

"Yes," he said. "I do. My father taught me."

"Good. What comes after three?"

"Four," answers little Johnny.

"What comes after six?"

"Seven."

"Very good," says the teacher. "Your dad did a good job. What comes after ten?"

Little Johnny smiles and says, "A Jack."
==============================================================
Shopping Trip

A husband was with his wife when she decided to buy something for their daughter-in-law at an exclusive lingerie shop.

Inside, the husband was feeling very out of place when a beautiful clerk asked if she could help him.

In a cocky manner, he asked, "Where are all the men's clothes?"

In a demure voice the clerk replied, "All of these clothes are for men, sir."
==============================================================
Printer Trouble

When a guy's printer type began to grow faint, he called a local repair shop where a friendly man informed him that the printer probably needed only to be cleaned. Because the store charged $50 for such cleanings, he told him he might be better off reading the printer's manual and trying the job himself.

Pleasantly surprised by his candor, he asked, "Does your boss know that you discourage business?"

"Actually, it's my boss's idea," the employee replied sheepishly. "We usually make more money on repairs if we let people try to fix things themselves first."

later).

We need = I want

It's your decision = The correct decision should be obvious by now.

Do what you want = You'll pay for this later.

Sure... go ahead = I don't want you to.

I'm not upset = Of course I'm upset, you moron!

You're ... so manly = You need a shave and you sweat a lot.

You're certainly attentive tonight. = Is sex all you ever think
about?

I'm not emotional! And I'm not overreacting! = I'm on my period.

Be romantic, turn out the lights. = I have flabby thighs.

This kitchen is so inconvenient = I want a new house.

I want new curtains = and carpeting, and furniture, and wallpaper...

I need wedding shoes = the other 40 pairs are the wrong shade of
white.

Hang the picture there = NO, I mean hang it there!

I heard a noise = I noticed you were almost asleep.

Do you love me? = I'm going to ask for something expensive.

How much do you love me? = I did something today you're really not
going to like.

game on T.V.

Is my butt fat? = Tell me I'm beautiful.

You have to learn to communicate. = Just agree with me.

Are you listening to me!? = [Too late, you're dead.]

Do you like this recipe? = It's easy to fix, so you'd better get
used to it.

Was that the baby? = Why don't you get out of bed and walk him
until he goes to sleep.

I'm not yelling! = Yes I am yelling because I think this is
important.

All we're going to buy is a soap dish = It goes without saying that
we're stopping at the cosmetics department, the shoe department,
I need to look at a few new pocket books, and OMIGOD those pink
sheets would look great in the bedroom and did you bring your
