They promised any officer who volunteered for Retirement a bonus of $1,000 for every inch measured in a straight line between any Two points in his body.. The officer got to choose what those two points would be. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  The first officer who accepted asked that he be measured from the top of His head to the tip of his toes. He was&lt;br/&gt;measured at six feet and walked out with a bonus of $72,000.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The second officer who accepted was a little smarter and asked to be measured from the tip of his outstretched hands to his toes.

           &lt;br/&gt;            People            stopped coming over to visit.&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;Repairmen refused to work in the house.&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;The maid quit.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;            Finally,            they could not take the stench any longer and decided to move.&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;            A month later, even though they had cut their price in half, they            could not find a buyer for their stinky house&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;Word            got out and eventually even the local realtors refused to return            their calls&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;            Finally,            they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a            new place&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;&lt;div align=&#39;center&#39;&gt;           &lt;b&gt;Then the ex-wife called&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He told her            the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely and said that            she missed her old home terribly and would be willing to reduce her            divorce settlement in exchange for getting the house back&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;            Knowing            his ex-wife had no idea how bad the smell was, he agreed on a price            that was about 1/10th of what the house had been worth, but only if            she were to sign the papers that very day&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;           She agreed and within the hour his lawyers delivered the            paperwork.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;          A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling as they            watched the &lt;span&gt;moving company&lt;/span&gt; pack everything to take to their new            home..........&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And to the ex-wife, who he still wanted to screw over . . . .&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;they even            took the the curtain rods!!!!!!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;            &lt;br/&gt;            &lt;div align=&#39;center&#39;&gt;&lt;b&gt;I LOVE A HAPPY ENDING, DON&#39;T YOU?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;div class=&#39;zemanta-pixie&#39;&gt;&lt;img src=&#39;http://img.zemanta.com/pixy.gif?x-id=15ce0c21-8697-876b-9aff-385057b40260&#39; class=&#39;zemanta-pixie-img&#39;/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class=&#39;scribefire-powered&#39;&gt;Powered by &lt;a href=&#39;http://www.scribefire.com/&#39;&gt;ScribeFire&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://blockheads56.blogspot.com/feeds/5744691525381531764/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/6253790753770414183/5744691525381531764?isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6253790753770414183/posts/default/5744691525381531764'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6253790753770414183/posts/default/5744691525381531764'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blockheads56.blogspot.com/2009/04/curtain-rods.html' title='Curtain Rods'/><author><name>Aesculus glabra</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15564631858672717436</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253790753770414183.post-5781713417783476839</id><published>2009-03-29T10:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-29T10:10:44.465-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="humor"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="politics"/><title type='text'>Nice Trade</title><content type='html'>President Obama got off the helicopter in front of the White House, he was carrying a baby piglet under each arm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The squared  away Marine guard snaps to attention, salutes, and says,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(102, 0, 0);&quot;&gt;Nice pigs,  Sir.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;The President replies:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote style=&quot;color: rgb(102, 102, 102);&quot;&gt;&quot;These are not pigs.

They have no legal authority.  They have no                    ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a president to                    do one cotton-picking thing.  I don&#39;t care if                    they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The                    politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter                    what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator&#39;s                    responsibility to determine how he                    votes..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those 545 human beings spend much                    of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their                    fault.   They cooperate in this common con                    regardless of party.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What separates a                    politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of                    gall.   No normal human being would have                    the gall of a Speaker, who                    stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits.                      The president can only propose a budget.                      He cannot force the Congress to accept                    it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Constitution, which is the supreme                    law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of                    Representatives for originating and approving appropriations                    and taxes.   Who is the speaker of the House?                      Nancy Pelosi She is the leader of the majority                    party.  She and fellow House members, not the president,                    can approve any budget they want. If the president vetoes it,                    they can pass it over his veto if they agree                    to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems inconceivable to me that a                    nation of 300 million can not replace 545 people who stand                    convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and                    irresponsibility.   I can&#39;t think of a                    single domestic problem that is not                    traceable directly to those 545 people.  When you fully                    grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of                    the federal government, then it must follow that what exists                    is what they want to exist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the                    tax code is unfair, it&#39;s because they want it                    unfair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the budget is in the red, it&#39;s                    because they want it in the red .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the                    Army &amp;amp; Marines are in  IRAQ , it&#39;s because they want                    them in IRAQ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If                    they do not receive social security but are on an elite                    retirement plan not available to the people, it&#39;s because they                    want it that way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are no insoluble                    government problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do not let these 545                    people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and                    whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and                    advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the                    power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.                      Above all, do not let them con you into the belief                    that there exists disembodied mystical forces like &quot;the                    economy,&quot; &quot;inflation,&quot; or &quot;politics&quot; that prevent them from                    doing what they take an oath to                    do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;;font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial;font-size:100%;&quot;

He then accesses an MS-SQL database through an ODBC connected Excel spreadsheet with email on his Blackberry and, after a few minutes, receives a response.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, he prints out a full-color, 150-page report on his hi-tech, miniaturized HP LaserJet printer, turns to the cowboy and says, &quot;You have exactly 1,586 cows and calves.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;That&#39;s right.

For your penance, say five Hail Mary&#39;s and put $50 in the poor box.&#39; The Irishman left the confessional, said his prayers, and then walked over to the poor box. He paused for a moment and then started to leave. The priest, who was watching, quickly ran over to him saying, &#39;I saw that. You didn&#39;t put any money in the poor box!&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Irishman replied, &#39;Yeah, but I rubbed the $50 on the box, and according to you, that&#39;s the same as putting it in!&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(255, 255, 0);font-family:arial;font-size:130%;&quot;  &gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;2.   Lemon Squeeze&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There once was a religious young woman who went to Confession. Upon entering the confessional, she said, &#39;Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The priest said, &#39;Confess your sins and be forgiven.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The young woman said, &#39;Last night my boyfriend made mad, passionate love to me seven times.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The priest thought long and hard and then said, &#39;Squeeze seven lemons into a glass and then drink the juice.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The young woman asked, &#39;Will this cleanse me of my sins?&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The priest said, &#39;No, but it will wipe that smile off of your face.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 0, 153);font-size:130%;&quot; &gt;3.

His eyes fluttered open and he said, &#39;You&#39;re beautiful.&#39;  Then he fell asleep again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His wife had never heard him say that before, so she stayed by his side.  A few minutes later his eyes fluttered open and he said, &#39;You&#39;re cute.&#39;    The wife was disappointed because instead of &#39;beautiful,&#39; it was now  &#39;cute.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She asked, &#39;What happened to beautiful?&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The man replied, &#39;The drugs are wearing off.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 51, 0);&quot;&gt;4.

But there are some Baptists down the lane, and there&#39;s no tellin&#39; what they believe.  Maybe they&#39;ll do something for the creature.&#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Muldoon said, &#39;I&#39;ll go right away Father.
