Father O'Malley answers the phone. 'Hello, is this Father O'Malley?' 'It is!' 'This is the IRS. Can you help us?' 'I can!' 'Do you know a Ted Houlihan?' 'I do!' 'Is he a member of your congregation?' 'He is!' 'Did he donate $10,000 to the church?' 'He will.' :? --------------------------------------...

Muldoon lived alone in the Irish countryside with only a pet dog for company. One day the dog died, and Muldoon went to the parish priest and asked, 'Father, my dog is dead. Could ya' be saying' a mass for the poor creature?' Father Patrick replied, 'I'm afraid not; we cannot have services for an an...

Bogie35,
Thanks for posting the link.
I opened it in a new tab, took about 50 seconds to download the PDF, then I saved it to my PC for later perusal. This way I can look at it with Adobe Reader, and avoid those annoying sound effects (just me being a COB.)

Facebook is the perfect way to screw someones life up.... should they post the wrong thing Yep. I found out that, although there aren't any laws against free speech, there are "consequences". It's a bad way to find out your boss is a flaming vengeful liberal. Now I'm pigeon holed. [ :roll...

It's late Fall and the Indians on a remote reservation in Montana asked their new chief if the coming winter was going to be cold or mild. Since he was a chief in a modern society, he had never been taught the old secrets. When he looked at the sky, he couldn't tell what the winter was going to be l...

I've stored mine between two sheets of poster board. Keeps them flat. I hinged the poster boards together at the bottom with a paper strip held on with duct tape. I found a spot behind a dresser where I can slide the stored maps to get them out of the way.

I have a 50-year old pair that's probably down, but is sort of two layers of satin like fabric with down or whatever 'quilted' in about a 1/4" layer between them. They're awesomely warm, vs. the ordinary "thermal" stuff. When they give out, I hope I can find decent ones like that. WO...

I wonder if it's considered a concealable (handgun) vs. non-concealeable (long gun). That would make a big difference in California, the rules for carrying and transporting are different plus you'd have to keep it locked up. Not to mention if an LEO didn't know how to classify it and arrested you a...

I watched Clint Eastwood's "Unforgiven" this afternoon. It's too bad Eastwood isn't a stickler for accuracy the way Tom Selleck is in his westerns. "Unforgiven" takes place in 1881, so why are some of the characters carrying Winchester 1892s? And why is one character complaining...
