Articles on this site express varying points of view, to encourage mature thinking on serious issues. The assumption is that you will want to study a controversial topic from various angles before you arrive at a conclusion, rather than simply believe what someone told you when you were impressionable!

Prayer for Leroy’s Hearing…

A Special Need Prayer Request In a Detroit church one Sunday morning, a preacher said, “Does anyone have a ‘Special Need’ who wants to be prayed over?  If so please come forward to the front by the altar.” With that, Leroy got in line and waited until it was his turn. The Preacher asked, “Leroy, what do […]

20 Ways To Maintain A Healthy Level of (occasionally irresponsible) Insanity

1. At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and Point A Hair Dryer At Passing Cars. See If They Slow Down. 2. Page Yourself Over The Intercom. Don’t Disguise Your Voice. 3. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, Ask If They Want Fries with that. 4. Put Your Garbage […]

Quotes that bite…

In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a government.   John  Adams If you don’t read the newspaper you are uninformed, if you do read the newspaper you are  misinformed.    Mark  Twain Suppose you […]

Jokes: mostly corny, but you’re allowed to smile!

NO ONE BELIEVES SENIORS ANYMORE! No one believes seniors . . . everyone thinks they are senile. An elderly couple was celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The couple had married as childhood sweethearts and had moved back to their old neighborhood after they retired. Holding hands, they walked back to their old school. It was not […]

Imagine my delight when the cashier beckoned the woman to come forward looked into the cart and asked sweetly, “So […]

Humor (somewhat pathetic :-)

From inside came a genie that told him he would get three wishes, but whatever he wishes for, his mother-in-law gets double of what he gets. “What would you like for your first wish?” asked the genie. “I want one billion dollars,” replies the […]

Looking for Positives

During my mid-twenties I caught up with a long-lost high school friend. He’d always carried a few extra kilos, but now he was carrying several more. My hair had already begun showing its pathological fear of heights—which has some positives: like being a load off my mind; or saving on hair shampoo—but I decided to […]

Punography

· I tried to catch some fog. I mist. · When chemists die, they barium. · Jokes about German sausage are the wurst. · A soldier who survived mustard gas and pepper spray is now a seasoned veteran. · I know a guy who’s addicted to brake fluid. He says he can stop any time. […]

Imponderables :-) (Can you add any others?)

Ponder on these imponderables for a minute:- 1. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented? 2. If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren’t people from Holland called Holes? 3. Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery? 4. If a pig loses […]
