A Joke!
« on: March 11, 2011, 06:54:39 PM »
Everybody seems to like this joke about Rose and Barb.


Two 90-year-old women, Rose and Barb, were friends all of their lives.
When it was clear that Rose was dying, Barb visited her every day.
One day Barb said, 'Rose, we both loved playing women's softball all
our lives, and we played all through High School. Please do me one
favor: when you get to Heaven, somehow, you must let me know if there's women's softball there.'

Rose looked up at Barb from her deathbed and said, 'Barb, you've been
my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this
favor for you.'

Shortly after that, Rose passed on.

A few nights later, Barb was awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to her, 'Barb, Barb.'

'Who is it?', asked Barb, sitting up suddenly. 'Who is it?'

'Barb -- it's me, Rose.'

'You're not Rose. Rose just died.'

'I'm telling you, it's me, Rose,' insisted the voice.

'Rose! Where are you?'

'In Heaven,' replied Rose. 'I have some really good news and a little bad news.'

'Tell me the good news first,' said Barb.

'The good news,' Rose said, 'is that there's softball in Heaven.
Better yet all of our old buddies who died before us are here, too..

Better than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always
springtime, and it never rains or snows. And best of all, we can play
softball all we want, and we never get tired.'

'That's fantastic,' said Barb. 'It's beyond my wildest dreams! So
what's the bad news?'

'You're pitching Tuesday.'

Heheh!  ::hysterical::

My pastor always says, "We all want to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die."

 ::praying:: ::praying:: ::praying:: ::praying:: ::praying::
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

I saw this yesterday.  I don't remember where.  It might have been here, in which case I'll be embarrassed.


Knock, knock.

Who's there?

Kenya.

Kenya who?

Kenya show us your birth certificate?
We are so far past and beyond the “long train of abuses and usurpations” that the Colonists and Founders experienced and which necessitated the Revolutionary War that they aren’t even visible in the rear-view mirror.
