Friday Funnies

Hi,

Today was a 'stay at home' day for me. It rained off and on all day. Lisa went out with Tye and met with a printer and found a dry cleaner. We finalized the last portion of our travel arrangements. Whew.

The song some of you got stuck with was "He's Not Heavy, He's My Brother" as done by The Hollies. If you go to Wikipedia, you'll find several historical references to the song title, from a long time ago. Hmm. Anyway, that was the song.

For the weekend we'll ponder something you may remember, even if you weren't born yet. (Ha) It's classic stuff.
"...You know you love him, you cant understand why he treats you like he do when he's such a good man."
Hint: Performed by a couple who later broke up. Movie of their lives was a hit. She's still at it wearing nylons. Hmm, was I foolish enough to give it away?

This morning Lisa did some painting and I learned more about the new camera. We did more planning on our upcoming trip to America as well as the art show. The timing of certain things gets interesting when trying to plan for printing in another city and translations, etc. Progress is being made on all fronts and that's a good thing.

This afternoon our friend Tye came and picked up Lisa and they went to get an early estimate on the catalog for the show. We will have it made in Chiang Mai, but we were looking for 'ball park' costs. They went from there to a dry cleaner that Tye knew of. It's something we hadn't seen, but knew must exist. Most of what we wear on a daily basis is washable but there are certain things that just have to be cleaned.

With a little help from our friends we managed to finally get our reservations on Air Asia for the flights to and from Bangkok. Now everything is set and we're ready to go. (Ha) Oh yeah, pack the bags and all that. We will be arriving in America on June 24 and will depart on July 15.

You may have noticed that I used the word America several times. That's because here in Thailand, that's what it's called. Not the U.S. or the States, but America. Hmm. Of course they don't say it like you say it, if that's where you live. I threw that in because this message has become international. There are readers in Thailand, Bali, New Zealand and Europe.

This morning Daku slept until 6am and made us very happy. We've been staying up late watching the French Open. That's something we never would have done on a regular basis before. Our friend John got us into tennis when he was visiting from Bali. Now we're kinda into it. Still don't know why they score the way they do but I guess I could find out. While on a train of thought, has anybody every watched Snooker? There's an interesting scoring system (he said with tongue in cheek). And now for the question of the week: Why don't they have the Side Stroke in competitive swimming?

Now it's time for the real 'Funnies', from my friend Martin. Have a Mellow WeekEnd.

Peace,
Danny

Religious Maxine

Maxine was driving down the street in a sweat because she had an
important meeting and couldn't find a parking place.

Looking up toward heaven, she said, 'Lord, take pity on me. If you
find me a parking place I will go to church every Sunday for the rest
of my life and give up sex and tequila.'

Miraculously, a parking place appeared.

She looked up again and said, 'Never mind. I found one.
