cell phones

Posted on 08 Jul 2008 at 2:07 pm | 3 comments so far

I know I just posted last evening, but since I’m home convalescing (I came back from vacation with a bad cold), I’m getting lots of little things done that don’t require much effort and that keep me from spreading the nasty bug. One of those little jobs was calling AT&T to ditch our land line. We found out we could still have their Internet (DSL Direct) without having to pay for a land line phone! How cool is that?!

If you normally call us at our home and need our Verizon cell phone numbers, you can contact me through the contact tab at the top of the page. I’ve let BJU and our church know our new numbers also.

Here’s a little humor about cell phones…

There are several men in the locker room of a private club after exercising. Suddenly a cell phone lying on one of the benches begins to ring. A man picks it up and the following conversation ensues:

“Hello?”

“Honey, It’s me. Are you at the club?”

“Yes.”

“Great! I am at the mall 2 blocks from where you are. I saw a beautiful mink coat… It is absolutely gorgeous! Can I buy it?”

“What’s the price?”

“Only $1,500.”

“Well, OK, go ahead and get, if you like it that much…”

“Ahhh and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw the 2001 models. I saw one I really liked. I spoke with the salesman and he gave me a really good price … and since we need to exchange the BMW that we bought last year…”

“What price did he quote you?”

“Only $60,000…”

“OK, but for that price I want it with all the options.”

“Great! Before we hang up, something else…”

“What?”

“It might look like a lot, but I was reconciling your bank account and…I stopped by the real estate agent this morning and I saw the house we had looked at last year. It’s on sale!! Remember? The one with a pool, English Garden, acre of park area, beachfront property…”

“How much are they asking?”

“Only $450,000… a magnificent price, and I see that we have that much in the bank to cover….”

“Well, than go ahead and buy it, but just bid $420,000. OK?”

“OK, sweetie… Thanks! I’ll see you later!! I love you!!!”

“Bye… I do too.”

The man hangs up, closes the phone’s flap and raises his hand while holding the phone and asks to all those present, “Does anyone know who this phone belongs to?”

the ultimate Post-It note office prank?

Posted on 13 Jun 2008 at 6:53 am | 13 comments so far

I received a humorous e-mail yesterday that I thought had potential as a blog post. I would hate to be the car owner … once I was done laughing about the prank.

The Ultimate Post-It Note Office Prank?

It definitely raises the bar! Somewhere there’s a very unhappy office manager with nothing left in the annual ’supplies’ budget .

How would you like to walk to your car and find this?

The poll on my blog about whether to keep the picture at the top is still in the sidebar and some have voted. I like my blog either way, but I would really like to know what people think since I want the blog to be as appealing as possible to the readers - one of the main reasons my blog exists.

Also with this new tool in place, I’m open to suggestions for future poll questions.

My wife and I are certainly glad it’s Friday - we’re working on a special project for our church, are pretty tired, and ask for your prayers. I will be able to explain better once it’s over.

Here are a couple of recent pictures of our grandson Drew….

house wren update…

As best as I can determine, the baby birds have died and disappeared. We had several days in a row where the daytime high temperatures were near or at 100 degrees in the last week - unseasonably high temps, to say the least. The little bird house is shaded at no time during the day at all, and I guess the little birdies just didn’t survive it. :-(

How many people thought of the Post-it note before it was invented but just didn’t have anything to jot it down on?
