Friday Funnies

Hi,

A special occasion was missed yesterday so we'll celebrate today. We had a day without rain so we washed the car. Plus, more observations from the street (Driving in Chiang Rai).

Now would be a good time for you to get acquainted with the music of Kenny Rankin because he was the artist who sang "Haven't We Met?". Go ahead, sample some tunes on iTunes, pick up a CD, Google and read about him.

For the weekend I'm giving you what should be an easy one. Even if it's before your time, you should know this: "We skipped the light fandango, turned cartwheels 'cross the floor. I was feeling kinda seasick but the crowd called out for more..." Clue: Title refers to the color of a non-color. What?

Yesterday marked the 500th entry on "Adventures In Thailand". The blog began just before we left America on our adventure. Our friend Kathie suggested it so that anyone could keep up with the story. This all really began before the word blog was in our collective vocabularies. I've been sending out a daily message to friends and family for quite a few years. The 500 is the official 'Blog' count. The main point of all this is that a lot of words have been pouring out and finding their way to computers in many parts of the world. I'm very grateful to all of you who reply, respond or just let me know you're there. Whether you get this as an email or read it on the blog site, I look forward to sharing my life with you every day.

A quick revelation from the streets of Chiang Rai. If you take the attitude that you're the only one on the street and nothing can harm you, then you'll fit right in. We are continually amazed that there aren't more accidents. I guess that quarter of an inch clearance thing is working.

Now it's time for the 'Funnies'. Have a Wonderful WeekEnd.

Peace,

Danny



The following is an ad from a real-life
newspaper which appeared four days in a row - the last three hopelessly trying
to correct the first day's mistake.

MONDAY: For sale: R.D. Jones has one
sewing machine for sale. Phone 948-0707 after 7 P.M. and ask for Mrs. Kelly who
lives with him cheap.

TUESDAY Notice: We regret having erred In R.D.
Jones' ad yesterday. It should have read "One sewing machine for sale cheap.
Phone 948-0707 and ask for Mrs. Kelly, who lives with him after 7 P.M."

WEDNESDAY Notice: R.D. Jones has informed us that he has received
several annoying telephone calls because of the error we made in the classified
ad yesterday. The ad stands correct as follows: "For sale R.D. Jones has one
sewing machine for sale. Cheap. Phone 948-0707 after 7 P.M. and ask for Mrs.
Kelly who loves with him."

THURSDAY Notice: I, R.D. Jones, have no sewing
machine for sale. I smashed it. Don't call 948-0707 as I have had the phone
disconnected. I have not been carrying on with Mrs. Kelly. Until yesterday she
was my housekeeper but she quit!
