Once there was a golfer whose drive landed on an anthill. Rather than
move the ball, he decided to hit it where it lay. He gave a mighty
swing. Clouds of dirt and sand and ants exploded from the spot.
Everything but the golfball. It sat in the same spot.
So he lined up and tried another shot. Clouds of dirt and sand and
ants went flying again. The golf ball didn't even wiggle.
Two ants survived. One dazed ant said to the other, "Whoa! What are we
going to do?"
Said the other ant: "I don't know about you, but I'm going to get on
the ball."

Here are the reasons I'd Like to thank Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, and
my local grocer for having 25 checkout lanes and only three open at
any given time.
-- Waiting in long lines keeps my domestic brain from going completely
idle -- there's so much to learn!
- I can catch up on my magazine reading without buying any.
- I have time to leave my cart in line and run back to get the 13
things on my list I forgot.
- I can be one of those annoying cell phone users and catch up on all
my phone calls to my insurance agent, mother-in-law, and Auntie Anne.
- I can catch a quick catnap now rather than on the drive home.
- I can assess what other people have in their carts and get exciting
new dinner ideas.
- I can finally apply my top coat of nail polish with plenty of drying
time.
- I can run next door and pick up my dry cleaning.
- I can update my coupon organizer and leave the trash in the
we-never-open-enough-checkout-lanes store instead of my purse.
- I can practice my standup comedy routines on unsuspecting fellow
customers.
- I can practice some standing yoga poses and then do those isometric
muscle-contracting exercises no one else in line is supposed to know
you're doing.
- I can taste test my package of the newest low-carb, zero-transfat,
Splenda-saturated cookies.
- I can breathe heavily on my T-bones so they're defrosted in time for
dinner and I won't have to leave them out on the driveway in the hot
late afternoon sun as I normally do.

When we moved cross-country, my wife and I decided to drive both of
our cars. Nathan, our eight-year-old, worriedly asked, "How will we
keep from getting separated?"
"We'll drive slowly so that one car can follow the other," I reassured
him.
"Yeah, but what if we DO get separated?" he persisted.
"Well, then I guess we'll never see each other again," I quipped.
"Okay," he said. "I'm riding with Mom."

Billy had reached school age. His mother managed with a blast of
propaganda to make him enthusiastic about the idea.
She bought him lots of new clothes, told him of the new friends he'd
meet, and so on.
When the first day came, Billy eagerly went off and came back home
with a lot of glowing reports about school.
The next morning when his mother woke him up, he asked, "What for?"
She told him it was time to get ready for school.
"What?" he asked. "Again?"

What can I say? The voters of South Carolina have spoken. Mark Sanford
beat my sister, and I believe that means Mark Sanford is now my
sister. And on behalf of my entire family, I want to say we’re
deeply sorry about him. My sister lost. How could this happen? I was
so sure Lulu had won because CNN called it for Sanford.

Two elderly ladies had been friends for many decades. Over the years
they had shared all kinds of activities and adventures. Lately, their
activities had been limited to meeting a few times a week to play
cards.
One day they were playing cards when one looked at the other and said,
"Now don't get mad at me... I know we've been friends for a long time,
but I just can't remember your name. I've thought and thought, but I
can't recall it. Please tell me what your name is."
Her friend glared at her. For at least three minutes she just looked
at her. Finally she said, "How soon do you need to know?"

The strong young man at the construction site was bragging that he
could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of
making fun of one of the older workmen.
After several minutes, the older worker had had enough. "Why don't you
put your money where your mouth is?" he said. "I will bet a week's
wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that building
that you won't be able to wheel back."
"You're on, old man," the young guy replied.
The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles.
Then he turned to the young man and said, "Alright. Get in."

A mild mannered man was tired of his wife always bossing him around,
so he went to a psychiatrist. The doctor told him he had to develop
self-esteem. The doctor gave him a booklet on assertiveness training,
which he read on the way home.
When he walked through the door and his wife came to greet him, he
told her, "From now on I'm the man of this house and my word is law.
When I come home from work, I want my dinner on the table.
"Now go upstairs and lay me some clothes on the bed, because I'm going
out with the boys tonight. Then draw my bath.
"When I get out of the tub, guess who's going to dress me and comb my
hair?"
"The undertaker," she replied.

His mother was now living in Miami Beach and the young man didn't see
her that often. His father was no longer around and he was worried
that Mom was lonely. For her birthday, he purchased a rare parrot,
trained to speak seven languages. He had a courier deliver the bird to
his dear mother. A few days later, he called.
"Ma, what do you think of the bird?"
"The bird was good, but a little tough. I should have cooked it
longer."
"You ate the bird? Ma, the bird was very expensive. It spoke seven
languages!"
"Oh, excuse me. But, if the bird was so smart, why didn't it say
something when I put it in the oven?"

A butcher was minding his store one day, when a dog ran in and stole a
cut of meat off his counter. The butcher recognized the dog as
belonging to his neighbor who was a lawyer. He called up his neighbor
and said, "Your dog stole meat from my store. I believe you owe me for
the meat."
The lawyer said "You are correct. How much was the meat?"
The butcher told him that it cost $4.50, the lawyer replied that the
butcher should receive a check for that amount in the mail the next
day.
The next day, the check arrived in the mail for $4.50, with a bill
attached for $150 "for legal consultation."

A farmer walked into a bar with his pig and ordered a drink. The
bartender could not help asking the man why his pig had a peg leg.
"Well, you see," said the farmer, "this is an amazing pig. Why, two
years ago, my son was chopping wood in the field when a tree collapsed
on him, pinning him to the ground and making breathing difficult. The
pig, which was in the area, ran to get assistance and, squealing
loudly, led us to my son to rescue him."
"You're right, that is an amazing story. But why does your pig have a
peg leg?"
This is no ordinary pig," the farmer continued. "One night while we
were sleeping, our barn caught fire and the pig managed to squeeze
through a little hole in the wall and circle our house, squealing as
loud as it could to wake us up. We were able to save all of the
animals."
"Wow. Incredible. But why does the pig have a peg leg?"
"Wait. Once, our home caught on fire. The pig managed to run to the
next house over and wake the neighbors, who were able to save us and
help put out the fire."
"Okay, okay! The pig is amazing. But why the peg leg?" the bartender
demanded.
"An amazing pig like this. You can't eat it all at once."

This week marks the 40th anniversary of the Watergate hearings. For
those of you too young to remember, back then the administration had
an enemies list. They were spying on reporters, and they used the IRS
to harass groups they didn't like. Thank God those days are gone
forever.
