If you really want to know what's up

So, I've noticed that periodically random folks seem to visit this blog... well if you make your way here and you really want to know what's up with my life (instead of just what I copy from forwards I actually find amusing), check out my other blog: micah6-8.blogspot.com

More evidence that women are evil

FYI - this was totally an e-mail forward

A woman and a man are involved in a car accident on a snowy, cold Monday morning; it's a bad one. Both of their cars are totally demolished but amazingly neither of them is hurt.

After they crawl out of their cars, the woman says, "So....you're a man. That's interesting. I'm a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing left, but we're unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days".

Flattered, the man replies, "Oh yes, I agree with you completely, this must be a sign from God!"

The woman continues, "And look at this, here's another miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune."

"Then she hands the bottle to the man. The man nods his head in agreement, opens it and drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman. The woman takes the bottle and immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the man.

The man asks, "Aren't you having any?"

The woman replies, "No. I think I'll just wait for the police...."

MORAL OF THE STORY:

Women are evil. Don't mess with them.

A Fun Forward

Why Are Men Happier?

Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple creatures?
Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of
themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can
never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear
NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth.

The world is your urinal. You never have to squat over a public toilet because this one is just too icky. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks.

A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own
jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone
forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend. Your underwear is
$8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You almost
never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your
clothes.

Everything on your face stays its original color. The same hairstyle lasts for
years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck. You can play
with toys all your life. Your belly usually hides your big hips. One wallet
and one pair of shoes one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter
how your legs look. You can "do" your nails with a pocket knife. You have
freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache. You can do Christmas shopping
for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

The Budget

President George W Bush's budget proposal for 2007 came out this week.

Long story short, due to proposed cuts to the Corporation for National and Community Service's budget AmeriCorps*NCCC (yes, that program I am doing right now) will no longer exist after this year.

So, if the response by citizens and legislators isn't sufficient, I will be a member of the last class of NCCC members to come out of Perry Point.

As a current member of this program, I am not lobbying... however, any interested parties may want to check out www.savenccc.org, just sayin'.
