Ok,
Here is my two cents, right now I have utilities included in my rent, however
I am moving on the first, the budget for the gas at one house we looked at is
$389.00, the water is usually fairly inexpensive but the sewer  is usually
twice the pricevery expensive to flush away ones...ummm  problemsG And
for us here in West Virginia, we are one of the cheaper places to live...go

The replies re the cost of water are just fascinating - seeing how

Perhaps we could do the same soon with electricity, car registration,

This came to me from my sister, so don't blame me!

*Why don’t you go fishing?*

A young man moves from the country to London.

He decides to look for a job in a large department store.

“Do you have any experience in sales?” asks the manager.

“Certainly”, says the young man, “in my village I sold cows in the 
cattle market”.


The manager likes the young man and decides to offer him a job.

“You can start tomorrow, and at the end of the day I’ll come and see how 
you got on.”


The first day was hard, and at the end of the day the young man is 
knackered.


The manager comes up to him and asks how it went.

“Well, not too bad”, says the young man.

“How many sales did you have?” asks the manager.

“One”, says the young man.

“One?” says the manager puzzled, “most sales persons have 20-30 a day.

“So how much money are we talking here?”

“£89, 431.27”, says the young man.

The manager does not know what to think: “What did you sell him?”

“Well, firstly, I sold him a small fish hook, than a medium one, and 
finally a large one.


Then I sold him a complete fishing kit, and asked him where he wanted to 
go fishing.


The man answered that he fancied sea fishing, so I asked him whether a 
small boat might not come in handy and sold him that Twin Engine Power 
Craft plus trailer from the fourth floor. The man then commented that 
his Fiat Uno would probably not be capable of pulling that boat and so I 
sold him the 4x4 Landcruiser.


The manager listens in amazement and says: “So you are telling me that a 
man came into the store to buy a small fish hook and you sold him a boat 
and a car?”


“No”, says the young man, “he came in to buy a box of tampons for his 
wife. So I said to him: “Well, that’s your weekend gone, why don’t you 
go fishing?”

Tamara and Pene Pip,

We desperately needed rain, and cooling off, so if Pene wants to visit
the Chicago area again, she is welcome and Poland can keep that horrible
heat that we got rid of - at least for a few days as it is coming back
again Sunday. In two days my locality was lucky enough to get almost 2
inches of rain in 2 days. The grass once again has turned green and the
lawn mower must be brought out of storage and dusted off. 

I was very glad to have met Pene finally and learn a few things about
Estonia. I had to look on the map to find it as it is not one of the well
known countries to me. It was a delightful lunch with Pene and Janice.

Subject: Teacher

A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her 
students.

The teacher asked, Harry, what's your problem?
Harry answered, I'm too smart for the 1st grade.

My sister is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is!
I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!

Ms. Brooks had had enough.. She took Harry to the principal's office.

While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the 
principal what the situation was.

The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test.
If he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st 
grade and behave. She agreed.

Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed 
to take the test.

Principal: What is 3 x 3?

Harry: 9.

Principal: What is 6 x 6?

Harry: 36.

And so it went with every question the principal thought a
3rd grader should know. The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, I 
think Harry can go to the 3rd grade.

Ms. Brooks says to the principal, Let me ask him some questions. The 
principal and Harry both agreed.

Ms. Brooks asks, What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?

Harry, after a moment: Legs.

Ms. Brooks: What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?

The principal wondered, why would she ask such a question!

Harry replied: Pockets.

Ms. Brooks: What does a dog do that a man steps into?

Harry: Pants

Ms. Brooks: What's starts with a C, ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious 
and contains thin, whitish liquid?

Harry: Coconut.

The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open.

Ms. Brooks: What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft ! and stic ky?

The principal's eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the answer.

Harry! : Bubble gum

Ms. Brooks: What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting down and a 
dog do on three legs?

Harry: Shake hands.

The principal was trembling.

Ms. Brooks: What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of 
heat and excitement?

Harry: Firetruck

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, Put Harry in 
the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong

2004-05-12 Thread Helene Gannac
This is great for older lacemakers.  Younger people try it at their own
risk. This is working well for me.
 
For those of us getting along in years, here is a little secret for 
building your arm and shoulder muscles.  You might want to adopt this and
do it three days a week.

 Begin by standing straight, with a 5-LB.  potato sack in each hand.  
Extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long
as you can-try to reach a full minute.  Relax.

After a few weeks, move up to 10-LB.  potato sacks, and then 50-LB. potato
sacks, and eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-LB. potato 
sack in each hand and hold your arms straight out for more than a full
minute.  
After you feel confident at that level, start putting a couple of potatoes
in the bags.

I'm not really sure all these are true, but it does make a bad day look a 
little
brighter and gives a chuckle.  Lorri

Subject: Fw: Subject: Fw: Having a Bad Day?
 This is even funnier when you realize it's real! Next time you have a bad
day at work, think of this guy. Rob is a commercial saturation diver for
Global Divers in Louisiana. He performs underwater repairs on offshore
drilling rigs. Below is an E-mail he sent to his sister. She then sent it
to radio station 103.2 on FM dial in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, who was sponsoring 
a
worst job experience contest.  Needless to say, she won.
Just another note from your bottom-dwelling brother. Last week I had a
bad  day at the office. I know you've been feeling down lately at work, so
I thought I would share my dilemma with you to make you realize it's not
so bad after all. Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must
bore you with a few technicalities of my job. As you know, my office lies
at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to the office. It's a wetsuit.
This time of year the water is quite cool. So what we do to keep warm is 
this: We have a diesel powered industrial water heater. This $20,000 piece 
of
equipment sucks the water out of the sea. It heats it to a delightful 
temperature.
It then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose, which is taped
to the air hose. Now this sounds like a darn good plan, and I've used it
several times with no complaints. What I do, when I get to the bottom and
start working, is take the hose and stuff it down the back of my wetsuit.
This floods my whole suit with warm water. It's like working in a Jacuzzi.
Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my butt started to 
itch.
So, of course, I scratched it. This only made things worse. Within a few
seconds my butt started to burn. I pulled the hose out from my back, but the
damage was done. In agony I realized what had happened. The hot water 
machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped it into my suit. Now, since I 
don't have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn't stick to it.
However, the crack of my butt was not as fortunate. When I scratched 
what I
thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the jellyfish into the crack
of my butt.
I informed the dive supervisor of my dilemma over the communicator.  His 
instructions were unclear due to the fact that he, along with five other
divers, were all laughing hysterically. Needless to say I aborted the dive.
I was instructed to make three agonizing in-water decompression stops 
totaling thirty-five minutes before I could reach the surface to begin my 
chamber dry decompression. When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing 
nothing but my brass helmet. As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with 
tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told 
me to rub it on my butt as soon as I got in the chamber. The cream put the 
fire out, but I couldn't poop for two days because my butt was swollen shut.
So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think about how much 
worse
it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your butt.
Now repeat to yourself,  I love my job, I love my job, I love my job .
Think you are having a bad day?
Fire authorities in California found a corpse in a burned-out section
of forest while assessing the damage done by a forest fire.  The deceased 
male was dressed in a full wet suit, complete with scuba tanks on his back, 
flippers, and face mask.
A postmortem test revealed that the man died not from burns, but from 
massive internal injuries. Dental records provided a positive 
identification. Investigators then set about to determine how a fully 
clothed diver ended up in the middle of a forest fire.
It was revealed that on the day of the fire, the man went diving off the 
coast, some 20 miles from the forest. The fire fighters, seeking to control 
the fire as quickly as possible, had called in a fleet of helicopters with 
very large dip buckets. Water was dipped from the ocean and emptied at the 
site of the forest fire.
You guessed it. One minute our diver was making like Flipper in the 
Pacific, the next, he was doing the breast stroke in a fire dip bucket 300 
feet in the air.
Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.
Still think you're having a bad day?

A man was working on his motorcycle on the patio, his wife nearby in the 
kitchen. While racing the engine, the motorcycle accidentally slipped into 
gear. The man, still holding onto the handlebars, was dragged along as it 
burst through the glass patio doors.
His wife, hearing the crash, ran in the room to find her husband cut and 
bleeding, the motorcycle, and the shattered patio door.
She called for an ambulance and, because the house sat on a fairly large 
hill, went down the several flights of stairs to meet the paramedics and 
escort them to her husband.

An old man was sitting on a bench at the mall. A young man walked up to the
bench and sat down. He had spiked hair in all different colors: green, red,
orange, blue, and yellow. The old man just stared. Every time the young man
looked, the old man was staring. The young man finally said sarcastically,
What's
the matter old timer, never done anything wild in your life?

Without batting an eye, the old man replied, Got drunk once and had sex with
a peacock. I was just wondering if you were my son.

I got seven out of ten too, but wrongly convicted two programmers (erring on
the side of caution) and would only have been dead once (which is all you
need to be)  :-)

I have found this a really interesting test and have sent this to several
people I know.  Thanks for the linkTamara.

I'd have been dead twice, and wrongly convicted one programmer.

Seven out of ten isn't too bad for something like this, but doesn't this
stray into the realms of the lady juror who, without considering any
evidence, pronounced, He's obviously guilty of rape. Just look at the width
of his shoulders. And Of course, he's guilty. His eyebrows meet in the
middle.

I am hoping that some one on Arachne can help me,  I am sorting
out family photos with my family in Florida, we have identified
many, one is a real mystery.  There are three women they all
have hoops under their dresses.  Now I know from other photos
that they would have been taken in the 1800's sometime. When
did women wear hoops, in England?

I have Bloomingdale's Illustrated 1886 Catalogue, inside it shows
two different types of hoops both with springs. This was published
in the States.

I do have A complete guide to English Costume Design 
and history, 1066 - 1990's  there is no information regarding
what was worn underneath any of the costumes.  Although
looking at the drawings hoops could have been worn in 1880.
I have to say that none of the women are wearing lace.

 I deleted it completely without opening
 it. Wonder if it's another virus
 trying to get through.

I believe that anything with two extensions means trouble.  Especially if
either of them is .pif, .exe, .bat, or a few others I can't remember just
now; because those extensions generally belong to executable files.  They
can run and do mischief in your machine.  I'm glad you deleted it.
