Four-year-old Garrett Mullen watches a 3-day-old pinto stallion named Einstein in Barnstead, N.H. The diminutive horse born in New Hampshire could lay claim to the world record for lightweight foal. Einstein weighed just 6 pounds and measured 14 inches in height when he was born. Those proportions fit a human baby just about right but are downright tiny for horse, even a miniature breed.
Did you hear about the blonde who won the gold medal at the Olympics?
She had it bronzed.
The train was quite crowded, and the U. S. Marine walked the entire length looking for a seat, but the only seat left was taken by a well-dressed middle-aged woman’s poodle.
The war-weary Marine asked, “Ma’am, may I have that seat?”
The woman just sniffed and said to no one in particular, “Americans are so rude. My little Fifi is using that seat.”
The Marine walked the entire train again, but the only seat left was under that dog.
“Please, ma’am. May I sit down? I’m very tired.”
She snorted, “Not only are you Americans rude, you are also arrogant.”
This time the Marine didn’t say a word, he just picked up the little dog, tossed it out the train window, and sat down.
The woman shrieked, “Someone must defend my honor. Put this American in his place.”
An English gentleman sitting nearby spoke up, “Sir, you Americans often seem to have a penchant for doing the wrong thing. You hold the fork in the wrong hand. You drive your autos on the wrong side of the road. And now, sir, you’ve thrown the wrong bitch out the window.”
Tracey has had a rough work schedule this week with most of her staff on vacation. She closed Wednesday night and didn’t get to bed until 10 p.m. and then had to open yesterday at 4:30 a.m. Today she opens and closes so it will be a 16 hour day. That’s too much. I sure wish we could find her a job with decent pay and decent hours. Doesn’t seem possible anymore.
I was pretty stiff yesterday so I didn’t walk. I have to get back at it today though. I really wish this business of getting taller wasn’t so much work.
