"You did a great job," he said and handed the man a check. "Also, in order to thank you, here's an extra $80 to take the missus out to dinner and a movie." The painter thanked him and agreed to do that. Later that night, the doorbell rang and it was the painter. Thinking the man had forgotten something he asked, "What's the matter, did you forget something?" "Nope," replied the painter. "I'm a man of my word. I'm here to take your missus out to dinner and a movie like you asked." ____________________________________________________ sex c sass c Our Amazing Sunset Yesterday ____________________________________________________ A college senior took his new girlfriend to a football game. The young couple found seats in the crowded stadium and were watching the action. A substitute was put into the game, and as he was running onto the field to take his position, the boy said to his girlfriend, "Take a good look at that fellow. I expect him to be our best man next year." His girlfriend snuggled closer to him and said, "That's the strangest way I ever heard of for a fellow to propose to a girl. Regardless of how you said it, I accept!" ____________________________________________________ Reported by Rock An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Jarrod Rodriguez, 40, HARRISON, Ohio, USA Ohio man threatened and beat woman after crawling out of car trunk An Ohio man is accused of hiding in the trunk of a womans vehicle, climbing out and threatening to kill her while she drove, according to court documents.

Dear Webby You mentioned that Premier Kenney stopped the vaxport boohl sheet last night, but I was shopping today, and some shelves had huge gaps. When will the stores return to normal? Olga Dear Olga As you said, Kenney axed the Vaxport. That was provincial. The federal nuisances take more time. It does not help that Trudope Stalin is hiding in a bunker in Quebec. The trucks are still stuck at the border, but Kenney has not given up. One of our premiers proclaimed about 30 years ago:"Let the dumb bastids freeze in the dark!" to get the Trans Canada pipeline appproved. That worked. We still have that option, to shut down the TransCanada pipeline, and 4 trucks on the #1 (Trans Canada Highway) would shut down East-West traffic. Give it a few more days, and the fresh veggies should be appearing again. Kenney is NOT giving up! Have FUN! DearWebby Delighted by the gift she had received, the lady spoke warmly to the boy, "At church tomorrow, I'll thank your mother for this lovely pie." "If you don't mind, Ma'am," the boy suggested nervously, "would you please thank her for two pies?"

The gas station attendant was stunned, but his curiosity got the best of him. "Does that stand for Unidentified Flying Object?", he asked. "No," one of the other-worldly travelers responds. "It stands for 'Unleaded Fuel Only.' ______________________________________________ >Thanks to Sharon for this one: Dear Webby; Thanks for all the good clean jokes. Especially the church humor. I have one for you that I heard my pastor tell: A pastor told his congregation that he was going to do a 4 point message series over the next few weeks. Whatever word I end on", he told them, "I want you to sing a song that goes with that word". The 1st week the word was Rock. So the congregation sang "Rock of Ages". The 2nd week the word was Assurance. So they sang "Blessed Assurance". The 3rd week the word was Cross. They sang "At the Cross". The 4th week the word was sex. The congregation was baffled at what to sing. Finally an 85 yr old man stood up from the back of the church and started singing "Precious Memories". Try singing that song next time without laughing.

Since his operation had been an intestinal one, there was no earthly reason why he should be complaining of a headache. Finally his nurse, fearing that the man might be suffering from some post-operative shock, spoke to the doctor about it. The doctor assured the nurse, "Don't worry about a thing. He really does have a bump on his head. About halfway through the operation we ran out of anesthetic and had to bean him with the fire etinguisher." ___________________________________________________ Today, February 10, in 1763 The Treaty of Paris ended the French and Indian War.
