NO JEEP RIDE THIS MORNING

A skiff of snow on the ground under a cold gray cloud cover didn't do anything to enhance my outlook for the day.  In fact, when it started snowing I thought, "the hell with this" and headed for my sunroom recliner and my book,  No Jeep ride this morning and the snow kept falling.  And, it's predicted to be like this for the next 5 days straight.  If you don't hear much from me for a few days just know I am tipped back in my sunroom recliner with a blanket pulled over my head.......reading.

A Blast From Our Past: There are many wonderful scenic drives in Arizona and on this day fourteen years ago we traveled one of the best ones....... Driving The Apache Trail

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer. Suddenly the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said, "Because you have TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish."  The man said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over anytime I want."The Lord said, "Your request is very materialistic. Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking. The supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take! It will nearly exhaust several natural resources. I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of something that would honor and glorify me."  The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said, "Lord, I wish that I could understand my wife. I want to know how she feels inside, what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she cries, what she means when she says ‘nothing's wrong,’ and how I can make a woman truly happy."  The Lord replied, "You want two lanes or four on that bridge?"

- What does a cannibal say to the waiter in a restaurant on a cruise ship?  “Please bring me the passenger list.”

Sign on a company bulletin board: “This firm requires no physical fitness program. Everyone gets enough exercise jumping to conclusions, flying off the handle, running down the boss, flogging dead horses, knifing friends in the back, dodging responsibility, and pushing their luck.”
