"What is the meaning of this?" the director asks. "When you applied for this job, you told us you had five years of experience. Now we discovered this is the first job you've ever held." "Well," the young man replies, "in your advertisement you said you wanted somebody with imagination, and since it was your accounting department who found out, and not my foreman, I would say that was good enough." ____________________________________________________ Two highway patrolmen stop a driver for speeding on the state highway in Waxahachie, Texas. As they are writing up the ticket, one trooper turns to the other and asks, "How do you spell Waxahachie?" The other one replies, "I don't know." "What are we going to do?" the first one asks. "If we spell it wrong, the judge will dismiss the charge." "Well," says his partner, "why don't we just let him go and stop him again when he gets to Waco?" ____________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ ====From Lorna Hi Webby, a few years ago you had a phantastic piece about a Hawaian Good Luck sign and a bumper sticker. Could you please run that one again ? Thanks, Lorna==== Sure, Lorna. It's a bit long, but well worth it. Got a letter from Grandma the other day--this is what it said: The other day I went into a local Christian bookstore and saw a "Honk if you love Jesus" bumper sticker. Well, I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a thrilling choir practice and a thunderous prayer meeting, so I bought the sticker and put it on my car. Boy, I'm glad I did! What an uplifting experience followed! I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in thought about the Lord and how good He is, and I didn't notice that the light had changed. It's a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd never have noticed. Then I found that LOTS of people love Jesus! Why, while I was sitting there, the guy behind me started honking like crazy, leaned out his window and hollered, "For the love of God! Go! Go! Jesus Christ! Go!" What an exuberant cheerleader for the Lord he was! Everyone started honking! I just leaned out my window and started waving and smiling at all those loving people. I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love. There must have been a man from Florida back there because I heard him say something about a "sunny beach." I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air, so I asked my teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant. He said it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something. Well, I've never met anyone from Hawaii, so I leaned out the window and gave him the good luck sign back. My grandson burst out laughing--even he was enjoying this religious experience! A couple people were so caught up in the moment that they got out of their cars and started walking toward me. I bet they wanted to pray or ask me what church I attended, but I noticed that the light had changed. So I waved to all my sisters and brothers grinning and drove on through the intersection. I noticed that I was the only car that got through before the light changed again and felt kind of sad to leave all those people behind after the love we'd shared, so I slowed down, leaned out the window and gave them all the Hawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away. ____________________________________________________ Reported by Rock An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Donnel Gray, 49, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA Man Charged With Killing Charlotte Grandmother After Breaking Into Her Home Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police say 49-year-old Donnell Gray broke into the home of Diane Sanders and killed her.

A heart surgeon died and his wife carefully planned his funeral. She had arranged for his coffin to sit in front of a large heart made from flowers. At the end of the funeral the heart opened and the coffin was rolled into it. At that point a man in the back started laughing hysterically. The woman beside him, appalled at his behavior, asked "Why are you laughing!" "I was just thinking about my own funeral," he sputtered out between laughs. "I am a gynecologist!" ___________________________________________________ | Today, October 10, in 1845 The United States Naval Academy opened in Annapolis, MD. 1865 The billiard ball was patented by John Wesley Hyatt. 1887 Thomas Edison organized the Edison Phonograph Company. 1911 China's Manchu dynasty was overthrown by revolutionaries under Sun Yat-sen. 1913 U.S. President Woodrow Wilson triggered the explosion of the Gamboa Dike that ended the construction of the Panama Canal. 1933 Dreft, the first synthetic detergent, went on sale. 1938 Nazi Germany completed its annexation of Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland. 1943 Chaing Kai-shek took the oath of office as the president of China. 1957 U.S. President Dwight D.
