College aged kids are everywhere lately so I’m guessing it’s almost time to head back to school. Our kids go back soon too and you can always tell when it’s that time because of all of the college kids around here. I really enjoy having them around as long as they don’t get too rowdy.
Not me!!!
This is a new roller coaster in Ohio. I don’t know about you but there is no way in heaven’s name that I would ever get on that thing. Just look at these pictures and you’ll see why. The last picture tells it all!!!
See what I mean!!! There is no way possible to get me on that thing.
Do you believe in life after death?
That’s an interesting question don’t you think? Well I heard a cute little joke the other day that was about that very thing. I hope you enjoy it!!
A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come back and inform the other of the afterlife. Their biggest fear was that there was no afterlife at all. After a long life together, the husband was the first to die.
True to his word, he made the first contact, “Marion … Marion”
“Is that you, Bob?”
“Yes, I’ve come back like we agreed.”
“That’s wonderful! What’s it like?”
“Well, I get up in the morning, I have sex. I have breakfast and then it’s off to the golf course…I have sex again, bathe in the warm sun and then have sex a couple of more times. Then I have lunch (you’d be proud – lots of greens) another romp around the golf course, then pretty much have sex the rest of the afternoon. After supper, it’s back to golf course again. Then it’s more sex until late at night. I catch some much needed sleep, and then the next day it starts all over again”
“Oh, Bob, you must be in Heaven!”
“Not exactly…I’m a rabbit on a golf course in Arizona..”
You have got to see this
One of my waitresses showed me this video and I must admit, it is too funny. Now I think by now you should know me well enough to know that I am not prejudice or anything like that at all so please no bad comments. After you watch this, you will think it’s funny too no matter what the color of the person. I hope you will anyway. By the way, the waitress that showed me this is black herself.
Serves this doctors office right
Boy do I hate to go to a doctor and end up feeling like a number or like I just got my pocket picked. Unfortunately a lot of doctors have lost their sense of humanity and here’s a prime example for you I got in an email:
Those of us who spend much time in a doctor’s office should appreciate this! Doesn’t it seem more and more that physicians are running their practices like an assembly line? Here’s what happened to Bubba:
Bubba walked into a doctor’s office and the receptionist asked him what he had. Bubba said: ‘Shingles.’ So she wrote down his name, address, medical insurance number and told him to have a seat.
Fifteen minutes later a nurse’s aide came out and asked Bubba what he had. Bubba said, ‘Shingles.’ So she wrote down his height, weight, a complete medical history and told Bubba to wait in the examining room.
A half hour later a nurse came in and asked Bubba what he had. Bubba said, ‘Shingles.’ So the nurse gave Bubba a blood test, a blood pressure test, an electrocardiogram, and told Bubba to take off all his clothes and wait for the doctor.
An hour later the doctor came in and found Bubba sitting patiently in the nude and asked Bubba what he had. Bubba said, ‘Shingles.’ The doctor asked, ‘Where?’ Bubba said, ‘Outside on the truck. Where do you want me to unload ’em??’
I’m still laughing!!
My niece is checking into a franchise
My niece lives here in New Orleans and has decided she wants to open her own business instead of just working for someone else. She’s a smart cookie so I know what ever she goes after will do very well. In fact, she’s been checking into a party supply franchise. How smart is that when she’s in the party capital of the world? Pretty darn smart if you ask me. Sure there are other stores that carry party supplies but she’s done her homework and found a franchise that is all over the world.
Party Land has been in business for 23 years so that’s a pretty darn good track record if you ask me. There are a lot of businesses that haven’t made it nearly that long, even with franchises. Why Party Land and why party supplies? Well with the economy off like it is, people everywhere are finding more and more reasons to celebrate. Not to mention that the birthday parties are being done at home now instead of somewhere else and people want to make those parties memorable and special. I think she’s on to something if you ask me. The more people find to celebrate and be with their families, the better I say!!
I just thought this was funny
Now don’t anyone get in an uproar over this because anyone that knows me knows that I am not prejudice at all. I just thought it was funny. It could have said a Cajun and I still would have thought it was funny so have a laugh and that’s all, okay?
Jose and Carlos are both beggars. They beg in different parts of town. Carlos begs for the same amount of time as Jose, but only collects about eight or nine dollars a day. Jose brings home a suitcase full of ten dollar bills every day. He drives a Mercedes, lives in a mortgage free house, and has a lot of money to spend.
“Hey, amigo,” Carlos says to Jose, “I work just as long and hard as you do, so how come you bring home a suitcase full of ten dollar bills every day?”
Jose says,”Look at your sign, what does it say?” Carlos sign reads; “I have no work, a wife and six kids to support. What’s wrong with that?” Carlos asks him. “No wonder you only get eight or nine dollars a day!”
Carlos says, “Alright, what does your sign say?” It reads, “I only need ten more dollars to get back to Mexico ..”
This is one of my favorite places to shop
If you’re like me, you love to shop but hate to pay full price for anything you buy. I keep looking until I can find the best possible prices on the items I find myself in need of or just happen to want at that time. A lady has a right to just want something new from time to time, right? Heck yeah I’m right. Like yesterday, I was in my parlor and decided it was time for a new rug. Have you seen just how much a quality rug costs? Well the price I found was one that made me so happy I had to celebrate. You know how we are in New Orleans, we celebrate everything.
Well now if you’re going to have a celebration, that means you will need a new dress or two and some new jewelry to go with it. You can’t show up to a celebration in the same old thing you wore the last time you celebrated something, now can you? Well you might be able to but I sure can’t. I found all sorts of stuff and also found more reasons to celebrate so how about that. I’ll never buy from a local store again. I like online shopping.

We’re adding a kitchen to my outdoor garden
My house is behind my place of business. There is a breezeway or garden center between my home and the back of the business. I love it out there and have decided to add an outdoor kitchen. I had no idea where to start to find what I wanted until someone told me about fire magic outside kitchens . Well I jumped on my handy-dandy computer and checked on the Internet and found just what I was looking for. I didn’t just want a grill, I wanted a more or less complete outdoor kitchen and that’s what I found.
I have to admit that it really took me a long time of looking to find the one that was perfect for me because they have so many different styles, options, and sizes. You can even get a beer tap if you want. Talk about a great party time, that would make for one don’t you think? Grilled ribs and beer on tap makes for a perfect evening if you ask me. They have some great built in grills, fireplaces and everything you need to make your outdoor kitchen perfect including stainless steel appliances and just about any accessory you could think of. I can’t wait until I get mine and everything put in. It will be party time for sure.
