 | | Wednesday, January 23, 2008 at 7:44 PM |  | Thanks to Barb(MindwalkerStudios) for keeping me laughing! Stories about aging... An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%. The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again." The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family more...yet. I just sit around and listen to the conversations. I've changed my will three times!"
Two elderly gentlemen from a retirement center were sitting on a bench under a tree when one turns to the other and says: "Slim, I'm 83 years old now and I'm just full of aches and pains. I know you're about my age. How do you feel?" Slim says, "I feel just like a newborn baby." "Really!? Like a newborn baby!?" "Yep. No hair, no teeth, and I think I just wet my pants."
An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen. The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, "Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly." The other man said, "What is the name of the restaurant?" The first man thought and thought and finally said, "What is the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know... The one that's red and has thorns." "Do you mean a rose?" "Yes, that's the one," replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, "Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?"
Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital. After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator. On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him. "I don't know," he said. "She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown."
Couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. During a checkup, the doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember. Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. "Want anything while I'm in the kitchen?" he asks. "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?" "Sure." "Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?" she asks. "No, I can remember it." "Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should write it down, so's not to forget it?" He says, "I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries." "I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, write it down?" she asks. Irritated, he says, "I don't need to write it down, I can remember it! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream- I got it, for goodness sake!" Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, The old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment. "Where's my toast"
Three old guys are out walking. First one says, "Windy, isn't it?" Second one says, "No, it's Thursday!" Third one says, "So am I. Let's go get a beer."
A man was telling his neighbor, "I just bought a new hearing aid. It cost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art. It's perfect." "Really," answered the neighbor . "What kind is it?" "Twelve thirty."
Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical. A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street with a gorgeous young woman on his arm. A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, "You're really doing great, aren't you?" Morris replied, "Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get less |  |

When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat the problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300°C. The Russians used a pencil. ******************************************************************************* more...A woman gets on a bus with her baby. The bus driver says: “That's the ugliest baby that I've ever seen. Ugh!” The woman goes to the rear of the bus and sits down, fuming. She says to a man next to her: “The driver just insulted me!”
The man says: “You go right up there and tell him off – go ahead, I'll hold your monkey for you.”

A man follows a woman out of a movie theatre. She has a dog on a leash.
He stops her and says, "I'm sorry to bother you, but I couldn't help but notice that your dog was really into the movie. He cried at the right spots, he moved nervously in his seat at the boring parts, but most of all, he laughed like crazy at the funny parts. Did you find that unusual?" "Yes," she replied, "I found it very unusual... because he hated the book!"

Why is it that no plastic garbage bag will open from the end you first try?
How do those dead bugs get into those closed light fixtures?
Considering all the lint you get in your dryer, if you kept drying your clothes would they eventually just disappear?

Sometimes I Wish (Harmony) 3:37
Dreaming of the love I lost, the day the final bridge was crossed Sometimes I wish, that I could just forget. But the memory lingers yet, and it hangs around, Leavin' me low and leavin' me down. Everywhere I roam, there is nobody home. Even I should know, when it ain't my day there is no other way.
-Instrumental-
I begin to wake up to, how wrong it was to cling to you Sometimes I wish, to hold you to my heart, 'Cause I can't keep us apart. Forgiving you, Was the easiest thing that I ever could do. Everywhere I go, there is no one I know. Even I can see, it's too late now to believe in a vow.
-Instrumental-
As I wander I return, to days gone by there's much to be learned Sometimes I wish, that miracles could be. But at best I fail to see, any happenin', Some gotta lose and some gotta win. Everywhere I roam, there is nobody home. Even I should know, when it ain't my day there is no other way.
Everywhere I go, there is no one I know. Even I can see, it's too late now to believe in a vow. You're leavin' right now. less Added: Mar 28, 08 Channel: MyLady Views: 205 Category: People |

"The Star Spangled Banner" Words by Francis Scott Key Music by John Stafford Smith
more...
"The Star Spangled Banner" is the national anthem of the United States of America. The lyrics are from a poem entitled, "Defense of Fort McHenry", written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key, after he witnessed the September 13th attack by the British Royal Navy on Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. This War of 1812 bombardment is now known as the Battle of Baltimore (September 12-14, 1814). Throughout the night of the 13th, the bombing was heavy. At dawn on September 14th, Francis Scott Key saw that the huge American flag, which is now called "The Star Spangled Banner", was still waving at the fort. It inspired him to write the now famous poem. The flag currently hangs at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. On March 3rd, 1931, by congressional resolution, The "Star Spangled Banner" became the national anthem of the USA. "The Star Spangled Banner" lyrics: Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream: 'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion, A home and a country should leave us no more! Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

|  | |  | Greyhounds - Chariots of Fire  04:22 GREYHOUND RESCUE PART 2 -- Greyhound history dates back at least 4,000 years. Originally from Egypt, they were taken by traders to Britain, Europe more...and the Orient. They were valued as hunters of such prey as gazelle, deer, fox, and rabbit. The sport of Greyhound racing (chasing a rabbit-like lure) has been around since the 16th Century, and some participants have been clocked at speeds in excess of 40 miles per hour. While racing takes advantage of this breeds natural ability, it is the fate of these beautiful animals when their racing days are over that has necessitated the organization of Greyhound rescues and adoptions around the world. These wonderful dogs, once rehabilitated with lots of love and patience, become well-behaved and much loved members of the family.
