Joke - Little Johnny Is Scared

One day Gramma sent her grandson, little Johnny down to the water hole to get some water to cook dinner. As he was dipping the bucket in, he saw two big eyes looking back at him. He dropped the bucket and ran for his Gramma's kitchen. 

"Well now, where's my bucket and where's my water?" Gramma asked him. 
"I can't get any water from that water hole, Gramma" exclaimed Johnny. 
"There's a BIG ol' alligator down there!" 

"Now don't you mind that ol' alligator, Johnny. He's been there for a few years now, and he's never hurt no one. Why, he's probably as scared of you as you are of him!" 

"Well, Gramma," replied Johnny, 
"If he's as scared as I am, then that water ain't fit to drink!"

Joke - My Work Life

• My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned...couldn't concentrate.

• Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the axe.

• Next I tried working in a muffler factory but that was too exhausting.

• Then I tried to be a chef -- figured it would add a little spice to my life, but I just didn't have the thyme *.

• My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy.

• I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn't have any patience.

• Next was a job in a shoe factory; I tried but I just didn't fit in.

• I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income.

• I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.

• So then I got a job in a workout center, but they said I wasn't fit for the job.

• After many years of trying to find steady work I finally got a job as a historian until I realized there was no future in it.

• My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.

On to Winter...

Oh my. I've been so bad at updating this blog! My apologies. It's kind of hard keeping up-to-date with my Facebook page, Twitter (vtknitboy), emails, my etsy site, and the blog! Twitter has been fabulous--I've made dozens of contacts and friends. Many have purchased my handspun yarn, so my focus has been to keep posting new yarns, pics, etc., there. Sales on Etsy have been slow, but I've sold many more skeins just listing on my Facebook page!

Little Annabelle-nippy-diva, my REW (red eyed white) German Angora, grows about an inch a day! Here's her updated pic. Check out my last post for the July pic.

Sorry this is short, but I just wanted to update the blog. I hope to become a bit more consistent on doing more posts. I've been asked by friends on twitter to post recipes, so that may become a standard.

Hope you all had a safe and joyous Thanksgiving!

Ciao,

He said, "That's a 6' graphite rod with a Zebco 202 reel and 10 lb. test line...It's a good all around rod and reel and it's $20.00".

She says, "That's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it dropping on the counter. I think it's what I'm looking for so I'll take it."

He walks behind the counter to the register, and in the meantime the woman breaks wind big-time.

At first she is embarrassed but then realizes that there is no way he could tell it was her...being blind he wouldn't know that she was the only person around. He rings up the sale and says, "That will be $25.50."

She says, "But didn't you say it was $20.00?"

Joke - Billing Hours

A lawyer died and arrived at the pearly gates. To his dismay, there were thousands of people ahead of him in line to see St. Peter. 


But, to his surprise, St. Peter left his desk at the gate and came down the long line to where the lawyer was, and greeted him warmly. Then St. Peter and one of his assistants took the lawyer by the hands and guided him up to the front of the line, and into a comfortable chair by his desk. 


The lawyer said, "I don't mind all this attention, but what makes me so special?" 


St. Peter replied, "Well, I've added up all the hours for which you billed your clients, and by my calculation you must be about 193 years old!"
