    A lion and lioness are sitting in their den, when a monkey climbs up a nearby tree and starts insulting the mighty lion.

    The lioness starts to get angry and says, "King of the jungle, how dare you allow this puny monkey to insult you? You must punish him."

    "You are right, but you know what? I am king of jungle and I must not lower myself to his level. Let's ignore it."

    The lioness, astonished, sat in silence. Yet the monkey kept on. After sometime, the lioness looses her patience.

    "I cannot allow this any longer. I'm going to teach that monkey a lesson."

    So the lioness chases after the monkey. After a long chase she finds herself out of the jungle and at a construction site. She sees the monkey going through a narrow pipe and leaps in after him. The pipe apparently was not large enough, and the lioness gets stuck.

    Seeing that the lioness is stuck, the monkey walks around behind her.

    "Who's a bad girl? Who's a bad girl?!!" he yells as he spanks her butt over and over and over. The monkey continues for a few minutes and then finally leaves with a big smile on his face.

    After an hour long struggle, the lioness finally frees herself from the narrow pipe. Injured, and completely embarrassed, she returns home to the jungle and to her king.

    "So how did the hunt go?" the lion curiously asked.

    The lioness couldn't even look at him and kept her head down in shame.

    "Aaahhh, he took you to the construction site didn't he?"

    I was having trouble with my computer. So I called David, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over.

    David clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.

    As he was walking away, I called after him, "So, what was wrong?"

    He replied, "It was an ID ten T error."

    I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, "An ID Ten T error?

    What's that? In case I need to fix it again."

    David grinned, "Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?"

    "No", I replied.

    "Write it down," he said, "and I think you'll figure it out."

    In an elementary school lesson, a

    One little girl in the class raised her hand and said: “I just learned that Jonah in the bible was swallowed by a whale.”

    The teacher explained that it is physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it is a very large mammal, its throat is very small.

    The girl did not believe him and replied, "I am almost certain Jonah was swallowed by a whale."

    "I am telling you, it is not possible," replied the teacher.

    The little girl raised her hand again. "My Sunday school teacher told me Jonah was swallowed by a whale and she would not lie to me.”

    Frustrated, the teacher replied, "That is a 'story' from the bible, it is not factual, and I will not argue with you anymore."

    After a little thought, the girl finally responded, "Well, when I get to heaven, I will ask Jonah myself".

    In an attempt to fluster the little girl, the teacher replied, "What if Jonah didn’t go to heaven?"

    The girl quickly responded, " . . . . . ok, then YOU ask him."

    News: US woman defies Ebola quarantine to go bike riding with boyfriend.

    So it's official -- NOTHING can get you out of a bike ride with your girlfriend.

    The UK is facing interest charges of more than £3.5m next month if it refuses to make an additional £1.7bn payment to the European Union.

    Which coincidentally is the same monthly interest charge on my £500 loan from Wonga.

    I think it's nice that my Gran and Grandad are back living together after a 40 year divorce.



    ... Although they hate being in the same Nursing home.

    As of today my sister is insisting I greet her whenever I see her with an 'Hello Rachel'. It would seem 'Hi Sis' has lost its appeal after I picked her up at the airport and shouted it across the arrivals lounge

    I said to my son, "I'm going to call you 'Hashtag' from now on."

    He said, "That's nice, because I start trends?"

    I said, "No, because you're useless and annoying as f.ck."

    Did you hear the one about the wheelchair bound man, addicted to cannabis?

    He was a high roller.

    Having considered buying a couple of calves at a livestock auction for £200, I ended up purchasing two lambs for £100 which were sheep at half the price

    Remember before Facebook when the streets were littered with diseased corpses because there were no Facebook likes to save them from suicide?

    morning all
    decided to give the beavers a rest and back to greenhouse project. Need to finish it, so close to being done. Mick, that's a whirlwind of activity so early in the morning. Take care of those fingers! Curious, pictures you posted in previous post on the new site I could click on and they would enlarge, not so today. I remember you saying you could not see one of mine a week ago so I assume the same happened?

    Lav, how'd the chicken turn out? One of yours? Stella would be mad!

    Have a good one everybody!!

      MAE ALL...

      Mick...you never disappoint! When I read "and true to form" I just knew what was coming. :battered: Glad it wasn't more serious.
      No I didn't see the article but will be checking it out later. People are so quick to judge without knowing the facts. Things are settling down in the old noggin which resulted in an excellent sleep last night.

      Sam...I was surprised too that the pic's wouldn't enlarge when I clicked on them. Has to be the way they were posted. Good luck on getting your greenhouse finished.

      One more cuppa before heading out the door. Have a Terrific AF Tuesday all and all to come.....:smile:PPQP

          Quick check in - gearing up for one of those unpleasant chats with a staff member.
          You got a poppy Mick! I just found you could buy them and they are all sold out - I keep checking to see if any come back up, would love to get one for my Mum.
          Det - funky house sounds perfect - that's what I want my next house to be when I move closer to work, when girls finish high school - have some dreams for that!
          well off to do the deed - so glad I don't have a hangover, have to keep my wits about me so I don't get sued Will check back later!

          PS Mick - :happy2: the smile is back (thank goodness)

            Good evening Abbers!

            My girls stayed overnight & we were busy all day!
            Shopping, lunch, voting, Curves & all of the usual animal chores, etc.
            I actually bought some Christmas gifts today up at the outlets

            Mick, I hope your fingers are OK. I absolutely cannot be trusted with sharp objects myself
            Just think of how nice the kitchen will be in two weeks! Awesome!

            Sam, I have never eaten one of my chickens, just can't do that. I could never be a real farmer, that's for sure.
            Glad you gave the beavers a rest today, LOL

            Pauly & SL, go ahead & try that recipe, it was easy & good. Here it is again:


            SL, I hope your afternoon wasn't too stressful. Managing people is something I do not miss.

            Greetings PQ, Det, SF & everyone checking in later.
            I'll stop in tomorrow after I recover from my dental visit - LOL
            Have a nice night everyone!

              mellow greetings from a hotel room in NorCal ABeroooos!!

              Mick, you pulled a 'Det' and hacked yourself up...that's no good mate.

              Lav, no fair showing home cooking when I'm on the road

              Sam, maybe I'll have to loan you some night vision goggles so you can sneak up on the beavers when they least expect it. that might
              make a funny youtube vid.

              this new chat thing is a bit weird. i can't seem to ever catch anyone when they are actually there. oh well.

              sober restful dreams to you all, be well
