When you have to visit a public bathroom, you usually find a line of women,
so you smile politely and take your place.



Once it's your turn, you check
for feet under the stall doors. Every stall is occupied.



Finally, a door
opens and you dash in, nearly knocking down the woman leaving the stall.



You
get in to find the door won't latch.



It doesn't matter, the wait has
been so long you are about to wet your pants! The dispenser for the modern

'seat covers' (invented by someone's Mom, no doubt) is handy, but empty.



You
would hang your purse on the door hook, if there was one, but there isn't - so
you carefully, but quickly drape it around your neck, (Mom would turn over in
her grave if you put it on the FLOOR!), yank down your pants, and assume
'The Stance.



'In this position your aging, toneless thigh muscles
begin to shake.



You'd love to sit down, but you certainly hadn't taken time to
wipe the seat or lay toilet paper on it, so you hold 'The Stance.



' To
take your mind off your trembling thighs, you reach for what you discover to be the
empty toilet paper dispenser.



In your mind, you can hear your mother's
voice saying, 'Honey, if you had tried to clean the seat, you would have KNOWN
there was no toilet paper!' Your thighs shake more.



You remember the tiny
tissue that you blew your nose on yesterday - the one that's still in your
purse.



(Oh yeah, the purse around your neck, that now, you have to hold up
trying not to strangle yourself at the same time). That would have to do.




You crumple it in the puffiest way possible.



It's still smaller than your
thumbnail.Someone pushes your door open because the latch doesn't work.



The
door hits your purse, which is hanging around your neck in front of your
chest, and you and your purse topple backward against the tank of the
toilet.



'Occupied!' you scream, as you reach for the door, dropping
your precious, tiny, crumpled tissue in a puddle on the floor, lose your footing
altogether, and slide down directly onto the TOILET SEAT.



It is wet of
course.You bolt up, knowing all too well that it's too late.



Your bare
bottom has made contact w ith every imaginable germ and life form on the
uncovered seat because YOU never laid down toilet paper - not that there was
any, even if you had taken time to try.



You know that your mother would be
utterly appalled if she knew, because, you're certain her bare bottom never
touched a public toilet seat because, frankly, dear, 'You just don't
KNOW what kind of diseases you could get.



'By this time, the automatic sensor on
the back of the toilet is so confused that it flushes, propelling a stream
of water like a fire hose against the inside of the bowl that sprays a fine
mist of water that covers your butt and runs down your legs and into your
shoes.



The flush somehow sucks everything down with such force that you grab
onto the empty toilet paper dispenser for fear of being dragged in too.



At
this point, you give up.



You're soaked by the spewing water and the wet
toilet seat. You're exhausted.



You try to wipe with a gum wrapper you found
in your pocket and then slink out inconspicuously to the sinks.



You can't
figure out how to operate the faucets with the automatic sensors, so you
wipe your hands with spit and a dry paper towel and walk past the line of
women still waiting. You are no longer able to smile politely to them.



A
kind soul at the very end of the line points out a piece of toilet paper
trailing from your shoe.



(Where was that when you NEEDED it??) You yank the
paper from your shoe, plunk it in the woman's hand and tell her warmly,
'Here, you just might need this.



' As you exit, you spot your hubby,
who has long since entered, used, and left the men's restroom.



Annoyed, he asks,
'What took you so long, and why is your purse hanging around your
neck? 'This is dedicated to women everywhere who deal with a public restroom (rest???
you've GOT to be kidding!!).



It finally explains to the men what really does
take us so long.



It also answers their other commonly asked questions about
why women go to the restroom in pairs.



It's so the other gal can hold the
door, hang onto your purse and hand you Kleenex under the door!

Is It NBA or NFL?

Some may say I have this in the wrong section, but to me this is not very entertaining and not many read the Faith blogs so I put here. Today I heard the news of another child, another friend of my sons, a kid I coached at T-ball has died. A senseless death. Playing a game with a gun. When are these kids going to learn when you do stupid things like this, you are not only hurting/killing yourself you are hurting/killing us. The ones that have to stay on Earth and feel the pain of your loss. What is it going to take for you kids today to learn some respect and stop doing stupid crap. Have you not learned yet with all the things that have gone on that you are not invincible? I hurt as if you were my own and I am tired of hurting for all the children. I hope my son, you can finally understand why I "blow" your cell phone up and I am constantly "riding your back", I do this because I love you. So, as long as your my son and I am your mother get used to it! I wrote a little poem today. It's not very good, but helps to release some of my anger. And yes, I know I shouldn't be angry with God, I can't help what I feel. I am angry with these kids today and I am angry with the parents, and society. Thanks to all who listen to me get my anger off my chest.

God,

Please tell me why you do what you do....

You give us angels and take them back to you.

These angels were meant for me....

For some reason they had to go back to Thee.

I know a child is a blessing from above....

So, please tell me why you took our love.

I have tried to teach right from wrong....

Was there something else I could have done to make them strong?

Teens today think they know it all....

Please show us how to teach them not to fall.

God, please give us another chance....

And bring our angels home for another dance!!!

A married couple, in their early 60's, was celebrating their 44th wedding anniversary at a quiet, romantic little restaurant. Suddenly, a tiny beautiful Fairy appeared on their table.
She said: "For being such an exemplary married couple and especially at this time,
I will grant you each a wish."

"Oh, said the wife, I want to travel around the World with my darling husband."
The fairy waved her magic wand; and - poof! - two tickets for the Queen Mary II luxury liner
And Ten Thousand Dollars appeared in her hands.
Then it was the husband's turn. He thought for a minute and said:
"Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again.
So I'm going with my mind and not my Heart . I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me."
The wife and the Fairy were shocked and disappointed.
But a wish is a wish. So, the Fairy waved her magic wand, and -
Poof! - the husband became 92 years old...

The Moral of the story...

Men who are ungrateful bastards should remember...

Fairies are Female.

5 THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO
 
There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:
 
FIRST -- Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out.
 
SECOND--
Have you locked your keys in the car? Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
Editor's Note: It works fine!
We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!"
 
THIRD--
Hidden Battery Power Imagine your cell battery is very low.
To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
 
FOURTH--
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone? To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 #
A 15 digit code will appear on the screen.
This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.
And Finally....
 
FIFTH--
Free Directory Service for Cells Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411 information calls when they don't have to. Most of us do not carry a telephone directory in our vehicle, which makes this situation even more of a problem. When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial: (800) FREE 411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell phone now

Gentle thoughts for today.
 
Birds of a feather flock together and dirty on your car.
 
A penny saved is a government oversight.
 
The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.
 
The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
 
The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.
 
He who hesitates is probably right.
 
If you can smile when things go wrong, you probably have someone in mind to blame.
 
There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it. For example I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.
 
Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words "The" and "IRS" together it spells "Theirs?"
 
Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.
 
The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.
 
Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
 
When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.
 
You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.
 
One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.
 
Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
 
First you forget names, then you forget faces. Then you forget to pull up your zipper. It's worse when you forget to pull it down.
 
Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today, it's called golf.
 
Change is what happens when the pain of holding on becomes greater than the fear of letting go.
 
Growing old ain't for sissies.
 
Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth...AMEN. !!
 

The Media Missed this one!!!!   Please read/share this with others you know. They'll appreciate it.

Subject:  Denzel Washington, and Brooks Army Medical Center
Don't know whether you heard about this but Denzel Washington and his family visited the troops at Brook Army Medical Center, in
San Antonio,Texas (BAM C) the other day. This is where soldiers who have been evacuated from Germany come to be hospitalized in the United States, especially burn victims. There are some buildings there called Fisher Houses.

The Fisher House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay, for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses on base, but as you can imagine,they are almost filled most of the time.
While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build.
He took his check book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there on the spot.
The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear this story and want to get the word out to the American public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it.

The question I have is why does:
Alec Baldwin,
Madonna,
Sean Penn and
other Hollywood types  make front page news with their anti-everything America trash and Denzel Washington's Patriotism doesn't even make page 3 in the Metro section of any newspaper except the Local newspaper in San Antonio.

Why, Why, Why ,   Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting dead?

Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough money?

Why does someone Believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?   Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'lisp'?

If people evolved from apes, Why are there still apes?

Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day that mattresses Are not on sale?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, 'It's all right?' Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, 'That really hurt, why don't you watch where you're going?'

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

And my FAVORITE......
The statistics on sanity is that one out of every four persons are suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.  

I just want to say I hope the IDIOT who almost killed me and my kids today on 90 can sleep good tonight. You are an a**hole!!!  If I was not so shaken up by you running me off the road I would have grabbed my cell phone and turned you in. What kind of person drives like that anywhere especially on a highway. I hope someone else got your plate number and turned you in you coward! Thanks to you my kids are very upset and are still crying. Take your road rage someplace else where you can only KILL yourself and nobody else.

When you have an 'I Hate My Job' day, try this:

On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson.

Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed.

Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.

Now the fun part begins! Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a statement:

'Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized'.

Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times, 'I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson'!

HAVE A NICE DAY AND REMEMBER, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB
THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE BEHIND THAN YOURS

I love this one!

 

Mike was going to be married to Karen, so his father sat him down for a
Little chat.
He said, "Mike, let me tell you something. On my wedding night in our
Honeymoon suite I took off my pants, handed them to your mother,and
Said, "Here - try these on."
She did and said, 'These are too big,;I can't wear them."
I replied, "Exactly, I wear the pants in this family and I always will."
"Ever since that night we never had any problems."

"Hmmm," said Mike.  He thought that might be a good thing to try. On his
Honeymoon, Mike took off his pants and said to Karen, "Here - try these
On."
She tried them on and said, "These are too large. They don't fit me."
Mike said, "Exactly. I wear the pants in this family and I always will.
I don't want you to ever forget that."

Then Karen took off her pants and handed them to Mike. She said,
"Here-you try on mine."
He did and said, "I can't get into your pants."
Karen said, "Exactly. And if you don't change your smart ass attitude,
You never will."
And they lived happily ever. 

URINE TEST
(I sure would like to know who wrote this one! They deserve a HUGE pat on the back!)
 
Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no problem. What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for them? Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their butts, doing drugs, while I work. . . . Can you imagine how much m oney the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check ?

Merry Christmas Mission

I'm on a mission and I'm in full throttle now. My little red car has turned into a Christmas billboard with written across the back window. Yes, I've decided to trek off to work everyday on the public highways with a message that seems to offend people.

At stop lights, I even turn my music up a little louder, and to top it off, I sing along with it. Don't I know that stopping at a red light to roll my windows down only to share the joy of Christmas carols on public streets is a No-No? Don't I fear the Christmas Gestapo and those who would have me remove the written message from my car?

I'm sorry folks, but the only person I'm concerned about "offending" during this Christmas season is the Lord himself.
 LEAVE THAT MANGER ALONE!

We've allowed the Baby Jesus to be kicked out of His lowly manger, and those offended by Christmas are still not happy.

I refuse to let this happen. I'm going to do my part to make sure doesn't become extinct. Because like it or not, if the believers in Christmas don't take a stand now, it's gone forever.

Listen folks, the Christian community has been underestimated before; we will have to show ourselves again.

I walked into a Wendy's Restaurant the other day and was rather exuberant with my greeting to the manager. He didn't have much of a response and I said, "Where's your Christmas spirit?" He said, "We're not allowed to use the words
  when greeting customers. We can only say "Happy Holiday."

This morning I grabbed a quick breakfast at a Whataburger Restaurant. I noticed there wasn't a single decoration in the store. I asked the manager why they weren't decorated for Christmas. He told me the corporate headquarters decided not to send any decorations to any of their stores, and he didn't know why.

After I heard about all the Macy's and Federated Stores taking down their signs, the Target stores not allowing the Salvation Army to "Ring the Christmas bells," and the many incidents of children, choirs, and bands not allowed to play or sing Christmas carols, I realized it was happening right here in my own little Texas town.

How can this be? Not Texas!

 We do, however, have a store, Hobby Lobby, that plays nothing but Christmas carols during the season. On Christmas Day they run a full page ad in our local newspaper. That ad is not to promote the store, but uses the entire page to tell the story of Jesus' birth. Now that's taking a stand. We need to thank them.

When I saw a news report the other evening of children being taught new words to a song we've sung for years -
"We Wish You a "
- I was saddened to hear "We Wish You a Splendid Holiday."

I know now that it's just a matter of time till the greetings will be gone. Look around your town. Notice the "Holiday" greetings and not "Christmas." It's happening right before our very eyes.

Start singing the songs; go down the streets of America singing to your heart's content. Get some of those wash-off markers that these kids use to write on their car windows when they're rooting for their hometown football team. It's easy to do, and if a torrential rain washes it off, write it on there again.

We've got to get this message out.
" Go Tell It On the Mountain . . .
That Jesus ."
Sing it, speak it, be a billboard for our Lord.

The story of this "Baby Jesus" alone has brought about more goodwill at this time of year than any other day we celebrate. How can we sit back and allow Him to be snuffed out of our lives?

Is it Jesus, or is it His followers that the "offended" don't like? What kind of revulsion galvanizes one to campaign so vehemently against the mere mention of His name, the mere singing of a carol, or the mere visual of a sign that says

I can listen to my own boss at work use some of the vilest words and follow up with, "Excuse my French." I may cringe inside at his damning of God's name, but I tolerate it. So if you don't like me wishing you a

I'll say, "Excuse my joy." You may cringe that I celebrate the birth of Jesus, but just tolerate it.

 I cannot be concerned that offends you. If I'm not careful, the day will come when saying I'm a Christian will offend you.

I'm offended that you're offended. How about that?

When we get to a point that we can no longer take part in a tradition we hold dear, we have no choice; we either defend that tradition or we give it up to those who say NO. That's it . . . period. So, which will it be?

I'm not giving up my joy to anyone. If I know of someone that celebrates another holiday during this time of year, I will be glad to wish them whatever holiday they want. Just tell me what it is and I'll shout it to the world and wish you a grand celebration.

Just give me Christmas. To you merchants: Stop being so hypocritical and "filling your tills" on the back of Jesus! Who do you think is the symbol of giving at this time of year? It was the wise men bringing gifts to the newborn Christ-child.

You want your coffers full, but have ordered your employees to take down all the signs. If that's the case, I'll buy gifts at a place that understands my joy.

If you're worried about offending someone, you just did. The most recent Newsweek survey shows that 82% of Americans believe that Jesus is the Son of God. So, in trying not to offend a few, you've offended many.

It's okay to jump into the spirit when it fills your cash register, but let's call it something else . . . and don't stop giving . and don't stop buying. . . we'll just change the name and you'll never know the difference.

I know the difference and I'm feeling it greatly. It's hard not to be aware that townships across our country have actually banned the singing of Christmas carols because it might offend someone. And it's not just the religious songs; it's the secular ones too. No more "Jingle Bells" or "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer" because they're associated with Christmas. Boy, aren't we getting sensitive?

If we're not celebrating Christmas for the hope it gives with the birth of our Savior . . . there is no hope!

My freedom to celebrate Christmas in the tradition of the Christian religion is as much my right as it is your right to be offended by it. So what are we going to do? Did anyone hear me . . what are we going to do?

Do we defend a person's right to go forward with a time tested tradition (how about 2000 years?), or do we defend a person's right to end it all because they're offended? As long as we live in this great land and have the freedom to express ourselves and what we believe in, we will always offend someone.

If we try to make everything right for everyone, we won't have anything for anyone.

May you always have in your heart!

I really hope this turned out ! I came across this and wanted to share. Thought with the way some of you feel about Christmas you can undersatand those of us that feel offended when we want to keep Merry Christmas alive.
