RE: Idiot Quote of the Century:

thumbs up

Oh man, I'm sooooooooo tired!!!!!!!

A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home.
He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed:
'Dear Lord: I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my wife merely stays at home. I want her to know what I go through, so please allow her body to switch with mine for a day. Amen.'

God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.

The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. -
He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate,
awakened the kids,
set out their school clothes,
fed them breakfast,
packed their lunches,
drove them to school,
came home and
picked up the dry cleaning,
took it to the cleaners and
stopped at the bank to make a deposit,
went grocery shopping,
then drove home to put away the groceries,
paid the bills and
balanced the check book.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.
Then it was already 1P.M. and he hurried to make the beds,
do the laundry,
vacuum,
dust, and
sweep and
Mop the kitchen floor.
Ran to the school to pick up the kids and
got into an argument with them on the way home.
Set out milk and cookies and
got the kids organized to do their homework,
then set up the ironing board and
watched TV while he did the ironing.
At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and
washing vegetables for salad,
breaded the pork chops and
snapped fresh beans for supper.
After supper, he cleaned the kitchen,
ran the dishwasher,
folded laundry,
bathed the kids, and put them to bed.

At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't finished,
he went to bed where he was expected to make love, which he managed to get through without complaint.

The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said:
-'Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my
wife's being able to stay home all day. Please, oh! oh! please, let us
trade back.'

The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied:
'My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were. You'll just have to wait nine months though. You got pregnant last night.'

My Private Part Died Today

An old man, Mr. Goldstein, was living the last of his life in a nursing home.

One day he appeared to be very sad and depressed. Nurse Tracy asked if
There was anything wrong.. 'Yes, Nurse Tracy,' said Mr. Goldstein, 'My
Private Part died today, and I am very sad.'

Knowing her patients were forgetful and sometimes a little crazy she replied,
'Oh, I'm so sorry, Mr. Goldstein, please accept my Condolences.'

The following day, Mr. Goldstein was walking down the hall with his Private
Part hanging out his pajamas, when he met Nurse Tracy. 'Mr. Goldstein,' she
Said, 'You shouldn't be walking down the hall like that. Please put your
Private Part back inside your Pajamas.'

But, Nurse Tracy,' replied Mr. Goldstein, 'I told you yesterday that my
Private Part died.'
'Yes, you did tell me that, but why is it hanging out of your pa jamas?'

'Well,' he replied, 'Today's the viewing.'

RE: Shopping

Hate shopping!!!!! About the only time I don't mind is when I'm looking for a gift for someone & even then I have a list of what I'm looking for. No matter what I'm shopping for I always make a list, be it groceries, clothes, household stuff, etc. Get what I need & get out of the store. I try to avoid the malls & large department stores (like wal-mart & k-mart), I would rather shop at the independent stores.

RE: I AM SAD

One more of the many reasons I no longer work there.
That's what happened with me. I got soooooo pissed off I walked out in the middle of my shift one night, & I'm not sorry I did it!!!

Looking for work

A Japanese doctor said, 'Medicine in my country
is so advanced that we can
take a kidney out of one man, put it in another, and
have him looking for work in six weeks.'

The German doctor replied, 'That's nothing, we
can take a lung out of one
person, put it in another, and have him looking for
work in four weeks.'

Then the British doctor said, 'In my country,
medicine is so advanced that
we can take half of a heart out of one person, put
it in another, and have them
both looking for work in two weeks.'

And finally a Texas doctor, not to be outdone
said, 'You guys are way
behind. We took a man with no brains out of Texas ,
put him in the White House
and now half the country is looking for work.'

Get ready for prices to get higher on EVERYTHING!!!!

Get ready for prices to get higher on EVERYTHING!!!!

Just watched a news story on the flooding along the Mississippi River and it was said about 5 million acres of farmland has been destroyed.

Mostly corn & soy crops, which will raise the cost of feed to the animals, which will raise the cost to the consumer in the supermarkets. It will also raise the transportation costs as the new "corn fuel" will also go up in price.

This loss of the farmland will probably last several years, as it will take some time for the soil to get back to "normal" for planting crops again.

My heart goes out to all the people who have lost EVERYTHING due to all this flooding, it is worse than what happened to New Orleans after hurricane Katrina, and many of those people have not fully recovered from that yet.

I may not have a job, or source of income, but at least I have a roof over my head and I am VERY grateful for what little I do have.

I don't know how many of the people in the flooded areas will cope. To me it seems like they are fighting against insurmountable odds.

As my prayers & good thoughts go out to these people, I ask that you good people of CS do the same.

RE: Say Something... No need for names, but names are welcome too. Be Nice.

RE: Arrrghh! Parents!

One of my favorites, thought I would share.

We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire.

The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. One of my favorite quotes comes from Alfred D Souza. He said, "For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have. And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time...and remember that time waits for no one...

So stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school, until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until fall, until winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or fifteenth, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until you've sobered up, until you die to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy...Happiness is a journey, not a destination.

Work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching.

A wife's revenge

An old man and woman were married for years even though they hated each other. When they had a fight, screams and yelling could be heard deep into the night.

A constant statement was heard by the neighbors who feared the man the most... "When I die I will dig my way up and out of the grave to come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!"

They believed he practiced black magic and was responsible for missing cats and dogs, and strange sounds at all hours. He was feared and enjoyed the respect it garnished.

He died abruptly under strange circumstances and the funeral had a closed casket. After the burial, the wife went straight to the local bar and began to party as if there was no tomorrow. The gaiety of her actions were becoming extreme while her neighbors approached in a group to ask these questions:

Are you not afraid? Concerned? Worried? that this man who practiced black magic and stated when he died he would dig his way up and out of the grave to come back and haunt you for the rest of your life?

The wife put down her drink and said. . .

"Nah... let the old man dig. I had him buried upside down!"

Set in your ways due to living alone

I have been living alone and have done so for about the past 20 years.

In that time I have had a few relationships, one of which lasted quite a while and he lived-in for several days, then at his house for several days, then with me for several days.

During the times at my house, sure, it was nice, but also I appreciated time by myself, perhaps because I've become so used to living on my own and needing my own personal space and time.

If you live alone, and have done so for some considerable time, do you sometimes feel that singledom has made you hard to live with/move in with?

Some more gassing up tips

Considering the ridiculously spiraling gas prices, I thought I would pass on this bit of information to y'all. I was recently told as the gas gets hotter, there is more exhaust and less gas, therefore if you fill your car up when it is cooler, you will get more gas and less hot air.

Fill up before 7:30 AM, as the managers get the new prices around 8AM and change them ASAP.

Also, don't fill up if you see the truck filling up the underground tank.
It brings air in to the tank.

Another reason behind you not filling while the tanker is filling the bulk tanks is that they are full of rust and dirt..when they are pumping the fuel into the tanks through 4 inch hoses it stirs all of it up and you wind up with that in your tank...

Manson Follower Susan Atkins Being Considered For Release

For Vincent Bugliosi, the lead prosecutor in the Manson case, the question was gut-wrenching. After all, he said, he successfully sought the death penalty for Atkins.

Atkins’ death sentence should have been carried out, the former prosecutor said. But the state Supreme Court commuted death sentences to life terms in 1971.

What is the most "boring" film you've ever seen?

For me, without a doubt..."Open Water." thumbs down

Manson Follower Susan Atkins Being Considered For Release

CORONA -- State corrections officials are considering a request by former Charles Manson follower and convicted murderer Susan Atkins to be released from prison because of an undisclosed terminal illness.

Atkins' initial request for "compassionate release" consideration was made last month after a doctor determined that she had less than six months to live, said Terry Thornton, spokeswoman for the state Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

It is unclear if Atkins, 59, made the request or if it was made on her behalf by a doctor or family member.

Citing medical confidentiality laws, Thornton said she could not disclose the nature of the illness. But sources close to the case said that Atkins had suffered from brain cancer and had undergone amputation of one of her legs.

Atkins has been in state prison 37 years, longer than any other female inmate in California, Thornton said. She is serving a life sentence with the possibility of parole, making her eligible for release.

Atkins and other members of Manson's cult were convicted of killing actress Sharon Tate and six other people during a bloody rampage in the Los Angeles area over two nights in 1969.

Tate, the wife of director Roman Polanski, was 8 1/2 months pregnant when she was killed at her hilltop home in Benedict Canyon.

Atkins was also convicted of the earlier killing of music teacher Gary Hinman.

Her request for release has already been approved by the California Institution for Women in Corona, where she was housed from April 1971 until March, when she was transferred to a local hospital for treatment.

Officials at the Corona facility concluded that Atkins should be considered for release because of her failing health and because she no longer posed a risk to others.

Several obstacles remain, however. Her bid for release must still be approved by officials at the state Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Thornton said.

A positive recommendation would send her case to the state Board of Parole, which would conduct an investigation and issue its own findings, she said. That hearing could include public comment.

Vincent Bugliosi, who prosecuted Atkins, said she deserved the death penalty in 1971. But the former prosecutor said he believed now that Atkins has sincerely renounced Manson and that her 37 years in prison, along with her illness, changed things.

"She has paid substantially, though not completely, for her horrendous crimes. Paying completely would mean imposing the death penalty," Bugliosi said. "But given that she has six months to live, and the loss of her leg, I don't have an objection to her being released."

Last month, sheriff's deputies and forensic experts began searching for buried human remains at a sun-scorched ranch in Inyo County once used as a hangout by the Manson family. For decades, rumors have persisted that graves existed at the ranch.

Investigators used ground-penetrating radar, magnetometers and shovels at the Barker Ranch but did not find any human remains. They did find a .38-caliber bullet casing, but it was unclear whether it was related to Manson.


What do you think?? Should she be released?? Sharon Tate & the others that were murdered were not shown any compassion.
