I agree!  I love a good story like that to start my day.

Thank you, HH.

Random acts of kindness:

Today was not one of my better days. I wore something pink to make me feel better, but I still felt kinda out of sync. Decided to go by the local post office and drop off the bills I'd just paid. I parked and walked, deep in thought, toward the PO and noticed, as I got almost to the door, that there was a man to my right walking toward it also. He got there first, and opened the door and waited for me go in. I smiled and said, "thank you, sir," and he replied, "My pleasure, darlin'," with a smile. We walked in and I went toward the mail drop slot while he walked to the door to the area where people were standing in line -- a long line that extended outside the door.  I put my mail in the slot and turned to go, and there he was, standing there with a smile, and asked if I had a stamp I'd sell him so he wouldn't have to wait in that line (he had one letter in his hand). I said yes, but I wouldn't sell it -- that he was welcome to it. He said, "Thank you, darlin' " and I think that time I blushed 

And two strangers walked out to their own cars and drove away with smiles on their faces.

If only we (as a species) could learn to pay things like this forward more often! 

Stories like this one give me hope in an era all but devoid of it.

A Lesson in Government


A teacher was teaching her second grade class about the government, so for homework that one day, she told her her students to ask their parents what the government is.

When Little Johnny got home that day, he went up to his dad and ask his what the government was.

His dad thought for a while and answered, ''Look at it this way: I'm the president, your mom is Congress, your maid is the work force, you are the people and your baby brother is the future.''

''I still don't get it'' responded the Little Johnny.

''Why don't you sleep on it then? Maybe you'll understand it better,'' said the dad.

''Okay then...good night'' said Little Jonny went off to bed.

In the middle of the night, Little Johnny was awakened by his baby brother's crying. He went to his baby brother's crib and found that his baby brother had taken a crap in his diaper.

So Little Johnny went to his parent's room to get help.

When he got to his parent's bedroom, he looked through the keyhole to check if his parents were asleep.

Through the keyhole he saw his mom loudly snoring, but his dad wasn't there.

So he went to the maid's room.

When he looked through the maid's room keyhole, he saw his dad having sex with his maid.

Little Johnny was surprised, but then he just realized something and thinks aloud, ''OH!! Now I understand the government!

The President is screwing the work force, Congress is fast asleep, nobody cares about the people, and the future is full of shit!''

Bathtub Anxieties


There was a little boy and a little girl in a bathtub having a bath. Suddenly the little girl looked down at the boy.

"Can I touch it?"

Okay, I might have to turn in my "man" card, but this video would make Charles Manson go "Awww".
It melted my heart last night when my daughter showed this to me.

Awwww, that was cute.

I have to disagree. I would guess the poor little fellow was  trying to figure out if mommy was mad at him or .... my instinct was (if I could) to pick him up and comfort him.

I don't like people who exploit their little children or animals for the fun of it. Or profit.

If the baby had not smiled periodically I might have thought the same thing but, if you watch the baby's face, the reaction seemed to be to the song.

   If he'd been only laughing, but... that is a look of confusion on his face, and the tears .... I repeat:

So far the trick-or-treaters have been adorable and well mannered. One little boy was afraid to come to the door because he thought I was his teacher.

We're grilling out, enjoying the warm night air and waiting for ghosts and goblins (do they make goblins anymore? Wait, what IS a goblin? )

[Palehorse]

A goblin is a legendary evil or mischievous creature; a grotesquely evil or evil-like phantom.
They are attributed with various (sometimes conflicting) abilities, temperaments and appearances depending on the story and country of origin. In some cases, goblins have been classified as constantly annoying little creatures somewhat related to the brownie and gnome. They are usually depicted as small, sometimes only a few inches tall, sometimes the size of a dwarf. They also often are said to possess various magical abilities. They are also very greedy and love money.

Holy hell. I am a goblin! 

[Sandy Eggo]

no way! The "greedy" part eliminated you!
