    Mmmm...We went out tonight and I had a Black and Tan and potato pesto salmon with asparagus and red bell pepper mashed potatoes oh yes and a salad.

    I have had 3 doctors tell me I should drink! A cardiologist who said a glass of red wine a day, another cardiologist, who said when I asked about drinking that he used to say a glass of red wine a day until he had a patient who said he was a recovering alchoholic and a neurologist who said a glass of wine would help my tremors. Oh and the oncologist said a glass wouldn't hurt.  So I have a glass of wine 3-4 nights a week but very rarely a beer and it was so good. But it is not medicine like red wine and dark chocolate

     Yes I am perfectly serious.

    Hey, rosemary, that makes three glasses of wine a day, doctor recommended!

    Maybe we should make you our BCO B&G bartender.

    One day a blonde comes out of the tanning salon. She wants
    to make some money so she goes to one of the rich
    neighborhoods. She rings the door bell and says, "HI, is
    there anything I could do for your???"

    The man thinks and says, "Sure, you can paint my porch.
    You will find all the stuff in the garage."

    The girl says, "O.K., How much will you pay me?"

    The man says, "How much does fifty bucks sound?"

    The blonde quickly agrees and get straight to work. The wife
    who had heard the conversation inside says, "50 bucks, I
    hope she knows the porch goes all around the house!"

    25 minutes later the girl knocks on the door and says, "O.K.
    I am done. Can I have my money now?" Surprised the man
    replies, "O.K. Let me get the money"

    He comes back and the girl says as she is leaving,
    "By the way, it's a Ferrari, not a Porch!"

    With 3 glasses of wine I would be under the table. I am such a cheap drunk.

    Thanks, Blue! I'm LOLing here.



    3monstamama, those tax rates apply to taxable income, i.e., after all deductions and exemptions. (Adjusted gross income is actually a different concept, and is typically pretty much the same as gross income.)

    I'll dig up a few more.  They are saved willy-nilly in my WP.  I used to belong to a PTR site and the webmistress would send 1 out every day.  Wish I had saved them all!

    Ladies this is not a joke, but it is really funny.................we were talking tonight about the "things kids say"'

    When my husband died 20 years ago I had 9 grandchildren at the time..............the 4 year old would come to my house everyday with my daughter, and of course I would be sitting there with not much to say, at least for the first couple weeks.................He came in one day and looked at my sad face and said to me.................Nannie........you really miss Poppie don't you?................I said "yes Joey I do"......................He took my face in his hands and said very seriously .........................I know Nannie..............that is why...............every night when I go to bed I pray for you to die so you can be with Poppie............................thank God his prayers weren't answered.

    I have a story about my daughter when she was about 2 years old. She was staying over at my mom and dad's house, and they were all watching TV. My daughter was wearing a nightgown, without underpants, and she was holding her legs up near her ears. My mom said, "Erin, ladies don't sit like that!" My daughter replied, "My mommy does!" I've never lived that down.

    Yes, Hannity was speaking of an overall 55% in taxes.  So?

    He gets into a great debate with Weiner...remember Wiener?  Wiener can NEVER give answers.

    I'll have to post the transcript later from Jake Trapper questioning Carney (whatever his name is) at the presser.  Jake Trapper is not from Fox...I believe he's from CBS.  I already forgot. 

    Yes, Fox is fair and balanced.  MSNBC anyone?

    If you want a little insight here is Hannity and Weiner.  Oh, Megyn Kelly almost destroyed Weiner sometime back.

    Another funny story-this time about my son. We used to live in a very small house, with one bathroom. One couldn't really be too modest in that house-there was lots of traffic in and out of the bathroom. I was just getting out of the shower when my 3 year old son walked in. He took one look at me and walked out and asked his dad, "Dad, have you ever seen Mom naked?" My husband replied, "Well, yes....." My son said, "Pretty funny, huh?"

    it's nice to see the classiness of the 'new royal couple'  and the return to panty hose and dresses in the mags...

    very funny Mary

    Both of those stories are hilarious - oh my God, am I ever laughing!



    Apple - sorry, but I can't be with ya on the panty hose thing. I want them to stay out of the magazines (and off my legs) forever!

    They're pretty funny as young adults as well. I'm glad that my kids and my family have a good sense of humor. I think laughter is such an important part of life.

    My DH watched Lady Gaga perform on SNL some weeks ago (and he's into classical music, NOT rock!).  He was quite impressed by her and said "Smart woman -- she wears outrageous clothes and makeup to detract from her not-so-good looks, and she can actually sing too!"  

    Apple, I agree -- Will and Kate have brought classy good looks and dress back into fashion.  Good for them!  (And if that makes me sound like Little Miss Prim, so be itTongue out)

    I like stockings and I like Lady Gaga too. Unlike Madonna, she is very talented and has a great voice.

    Yeah, I saw her on "The View" and she was wearing 12 inch platforms.   Needed 2 men to help her walk.  She has taken Madonnaism to a new high.  Works for her!
