Hunters A carload of hunters, looking for a place to hunt, pulled into a farmers yard. The driver went up to the farmhouse to ask permission to hunt.
The old farmer said, “Sure you can hunt, but would you do me a favor? That old mule standing over there is 20 years old and sick with cancer, but I don’t have the heart to kill her. Would you do it for me?”
The hunter said, “Sure,” and headed for the car. While walking back, however, he decided to pull a trick on his hunting buddies. He got into the car and when they asked if the farmer had said OK, he said “No, we can’t hunt here, but I’m going to teach that old cuss a lesson.” With that, he rolled down his window, stuck his gun out and blasted the mule.
As he exclaimed, “There, that will teach him!” a second shot rang out from the passenger side. And, one of his hunting buddies shouted, “I got the cow!”
I just read George Carlin died of heart failure at age 71. What a shame. He was one of a few comedians I really enjoyed. Although he was profane at times, he was able to make people laugh without profanity in EVERY joke. I loved his wry and always on-target view of America and our foibles. Bye George.

I got an email from Carolyn saying Charity (her daughter) got a job as a probation officer in Taylorville, IL. Congratulations Charity! Don’t be too soft on those Crinimles!

Busy day. I took Mom to her pulmonologist appointment at Methodist and then we had lunch together. That was nice. I got home in time to take about an hour nap before taking the Honda in for an oil change and recall. That is the second recall on this car. Makes you wonder!?
I spent some more time trying to get my code right for the links to my recent activity log and I still can’t find what I want to make it work. Eventually I will wear this problem down.
Tracey worked late tonight and should be home within the next hour or so. Think I will watch TV and complain at it for a while.
