WHAT CAUSES ARTHRITIS????

A drunk man who smelled like beer
sat down on a subway next to a priest.
The man's tie was stained, his face
was plastered with red lipstick,
and
a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking
out of his torn coat pocket.
He
opened his newspaper and
began reading.

After a few minutes the man
turned to the priest and asked,
'Say Father,
what causes arthritis?'

The priest replies, 'My Son, it's
caused by loose living,
being with
cheap, wicked women, too much alcohol,
contempt for your fellow man,
sleeping around with prostitutes
and lack of a bath.'

The drunk muttered in response,
'Well, I'll be damned, '
Then returned to
his paper.

The priest, thinking about what
he had said, nudged the man
and
apologized. 'I'm very sorry.
I didn't mean to come on so strong.
How long
have you had arthritis?'

The drunk answered, 'I don't have it, Father.
I was just reading here
that the Pope does.'

Two Travelling Angels

Sun, 15 Apr 2012 03:50:24 GMT

Two Traveling Angels....... this one will make you think twice!!!!! ..

Keep reading to the bottom of the page -- don't
stop at the feet (You'll see).

Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a
wealthy family.

The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the
mansion's guest room.

Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.

As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole
in the wall and repaired it.

When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied,

"Things aren't always what they seem"

The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but
very hospitable farmer and his wife.

After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels
sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest.

When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and
his wife in tears.

Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in
the field.

The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could
you have let this happen?
The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused.

The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and
you let the cow die..

"Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied.

"When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was
gold stored in that hole in the wall.

Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his
good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it."

"Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death
came for his wife I gave him the cow instead.

Things aren't always what they seem."

Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out
the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that
every out come is always to your advantage. You just might not know it
until some time later...
                                Oooo

Sex With An Older Man...

Thu, 08 Mar 2012 04:20:42 GMT

When George Burns was 97 years old he was interviewed by Oprah Winfrey.

Oprah asked, 'Mr. Burns, how do you carry so much energy with you? You are

always working, and at your age I think that is remarkable.'

George Burns said, 'I just take good care of myself and enjoy what I do when

I do it.'

Oprah said, 'I understand you still do the sex thing, even at your age.'

George said, 'Of course I still do the sex thing, and I am quite good at it.

Oprah said, 'I have never been with an older man. Would you do it with me?'

So they had sex and when they finished, Oprah said, 'I just don't believe I

have ever been so satisfied. You are a remarkable man!'

George said, 'The second time is even better than the first time.'

Oprah asked, 'You can really do it again at your age?'

George said, 'Just let me sleep for half an hour. You hold my testicles in

your left hand and my penis in your right hand and wake me up in thirty

minutes.'

When she woke him up, they had great sex again, and Oprah was beside herself

with joy.

She said, 'Oh Mr. Burns, I am astounded that you could do a repeat

performance and have it be even better than the first time. At your age, Oh

My, Oh My!'

George told her that the third time would be even better. 'You just hold my

testicles in your left hand and my penis in your right hand and call me in

thirty minutes.'

Oprah asked, 'Does my holding you like that kind of recharge your batteries?

George replied, 'No, but the last time I had sex with a black woman she

stole my wallet.

I need you now

I Need You Now

My friend, I need you now-

Please take me by the hand.

Stand by me in my hour of need,

Take time to understand.

Take my hand, dear friend,

And lead me from this place.

Chase away my doubts and fears,

Wipe the tears from off my face.

Friend, I cannot stand alone.

I need your hand to hold,

The warmth of your gentle touch

In my world that's grown so cold.

Please be a friend to me

And hold me day by day.

Because with your loving hand in mine,

I know we'll find the way.

UR Smile is So Important for Me

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 05:40:14 GMT

UR Smile is So Important for Me

A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a
caring, sharing person inside.

Life is short but a smile takes
barely a second.

Every tear has a smile behind it.

A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.

A good
neighbor is a fellow who smiles at you over the back fence, but doesn't
climb over it.

If you see a friend without a smile; give him
one of yours.

A smile starts on the lips, A grin spreads to
the eyes, A chuckle comes from the belly; But a good laugh bursts forth
from the soul, Overflows, and
bubbles all around

Because
of your smile, you make life more beautiful.

Too often we
underestimate the power of a smile, which have the potential to turn a
life around.

Smiles are the language of love.

The
real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows
brave by reflection.

A smile is an inexpensive way to change
your looks

All people smile in the same language.

Children smile on the average 400 times /day; Adults: 15 times/day.

Ever wonder why?

A warm smile is the universal
language of kindness.

If I thought that a smile of mine, might
linger the whole day through and lighten some heart with a heavier
part,I'd not withhold it -- Would you???

Smile becoz God
gave Human this beautiful gift - A Smile....I sometimes wonder do animals
have this beautiful gift of smiling???

Smile, not becoz it
costs you or not, but because you can make someone smile and make their
day

So Smileeeeeee please ) ...... Hmmm... Good, looks very
good, infact suits you the best !!! AND SO IS YOURS !!!

Not Sure Do I laugh Do I Cry
