We held another "Masterpiece Theatre" by Danny and Laura this morning for the "Laugh of the Day"...
*A Love Story for Golfers*
An elderly couple were having dinner one evening when the husbandreached across the table, took his wife’s hand in his and said, “Martha, soon we will be married 50 years, and there’s something I haveto know. In all of these 50 years, have you ever been unfaithful to me?
”Martha replied, “Well Henry, I have to be honest with you. Yes, I’vebeen unfaithful to you three times during these 50 years, but always fora good reason.”
Henry was obviously hurt by his wife’s confession, but said, “/I neversuspected. Can you tell me what you mean by ‘good reasons?
’”Martha said, “The first time was shortly after we were married, and wewere about to lose our little house because we couldn’t pay themortgage. Do you remember that one evening I went to see the banker andthe next day he notified you that the loan would be extended?
”Henry recalled the visit to the banker and said, “I can forgive you forthat. You saved our home, but what about the second time?
”Martha asked, “And do you remember when you were so sick, but we didn’thave the money to pay for the heart surgery you needed? Well, I went tosee your doctor one night and, if you recall, he did the surgery at no charge.”
“I recall that,” said Henry. “And you did it to save my life, so ofcourse I can forgive you for that. Now tell me about the third time?.”
“Alright,” Martha said. “So do you remember when you ran forpresident of your golf club, and you needed 73 more votes?”
BE YOUR OWN VALENTINE!!!
Valentine’s Day can be a day filled with sweet surprises for those who have a boyfriend girlfriend or are married...but if you aren’t married...who says you can’t give yourself the royal treatment? Be your own Valentine!
Here’s how…
1. Enjoy a movie nightOn your own or with a couple of girlfriends, an evening watching your favorite movies could be just the thing you want. Pick a theme for the evening (make it a Johnny Depp night, a cheesy romance marathon or even a spine-tingling horror show), then grab your favourite sweats and some comfort food and plop yourself in front of the TV.
2. Pamper yourself with some always needed “me” time. Splurge by heading to the spa for a facial, a full-body massage, or you can even give yourself a manicure, pedicure and a two-hour bubble bath at home.
3. Have a shopping partyGrab some girlfriends and go shopping all afternoon, then grab a bite to eat.
4. Host an elegant evening for the fabulous singles in your life. Invite all those amazing single women you know (you can invite some single men as well if you like) and host a dinner party. Dress up and make (or order) your most impressive meal. Rather than awkwardly stumbling through a first date on Valentine’s Day, bring out the champagne and fine china, and spend the evening engaged in real conversations with your nearest and dearest.
5. Take care of someone. This is a great time to spend the evening volunteering at your local homeless shelter or food bank. Or book off the evening so you can go through your closet and bundle up all those items you’d like to give to a charity. Another way to give back today is to show those around you how much you care. Take a widowed relative—who may be missing a departed loved one today—out for the evening. Or be the best sibling ever by taking your nieces and nephews out for a bowling night while Mom and Dad spend some quality time together.
However you choose to spend your solo Valentine’s Day, do something that you truly enjoy. Because you just never know how many solo days you have left!
WATER COOLER CONVERSATIONS…
It’s going to be a big day in Vancouver today: February 12th (today), marks one year to the start of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.
A recent study finds C-Sections by choice are soaring in Canada but that…..there is a three fold greater risk of severe complications from a C-section than a natural birth
Did you know that it costs more to raise a cat, than a dog? See…dogs cost more per year, but cats live longer – so…it actually costs about $2,000 more to raise a cat.
Looks like some people still don’t grasp the whole 911 concept – that it’s for emergencies only!!! Police arrested at 66 year old man in Florida, after he called 911 over the weekend to complain that a fast food restaurant ran out of lemonade. // and, another Floridian was arrested, after he called 911 to complain that a convenience store clerk was refusing to sell him beer!!! The man didn’t have his I.D.
Talk to you Tomorrow!!
