Wicked Wednesday...And Then Some




--------------------------------------------------
The Test...
Three couples went in to see the minister about becoming new members of his church.

The minister said that they would have to go without sex for two weeks and then come back and tell him how it went.


The first couple was retired, the second couple was middle aged and the third couple was newly married.


Two weeks went by, and the couples returned to the minister. The retired couple said it was no problem at all.


The middle-aged couple said it was tough for the first week, but after that it was no problem.


The newlyweds said it was fine until she dropped the can of paint.

"Can of PAINT!" exclaimed the minister.

"Yeah," said the newlywed man. "She dropped the can and when she bent over to pick it up I had to have her right there and then. Lust took over."

The minister just shook his head and said that they were not welcome in the church.

"That's okay," said the man.

"We're not welcome in Home Depot either."

Hoodie-Hoo Day!


Here is some mind numbing information about this..er..holiday.

Northern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day .....(And I Quote)

On this winter day, people go out at noon, wave their hands over their heads and chant "Hoodie-Hoo".
It is a day to chase away winter and bring in spring. After all, everyone in the northern hemisphere are sick and tired of winter at this point and a little crazy being cooped up inside all winter and not seeing the sun.
Did you know? Hoodie Hoo Day is a copyrighted holiday. It was created and is provided, courtesy of the great folks at Wellcat.com


Aug 22 Southern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day -- (Insert More Quoting Here..)

Long awaited by our Southern-half friends,
is the day to go outdoors at high noon and yell "Hoodie-Hoo" to chase winter and make ready for spring.

But wait there's more..Go here and send ALL your loved ones an e-card to commemorate this day!


Sounds fascinating doesn't it? I soooo intend to enjoy this lovely day to the hilt. So what if my yearly physical just happens to be on that day. Imagine my doctors joy and surprise when, in the middle of my exam, I sit straight up feet in stir-ups with boobs flying and my hair smashed flat to the back of my head and maniacally yell....


"HOODIE-HOO Y'ALL"


I bet my insurance won't pay for that....:-(

He said...She said...


He said, I don't know why you wear a bra; you've got nothing to put in it.
She said, You wear pants don't you?


He said, Shall we try swapping positions tonight?

She said, That's a good idea - you stand by the ironing board while I sit on the sofa and fart!


He said, What have you been doing with all the grocery money I gave you?

She said, Turn sideways and look in the mirror!


He said, How many men does it take to change a roll of toilet paper?

She said, We don' t know; it has never happened.


He said, What do you call a women who knows where her husband is every night?
She said, A widow.


He said, Why are married women heavier than single women?

She said, Single women come home, see what's in the fridge and go to bed. Married women come home, see what's in bed and go to the fridge.




And last ..But not least..A little ditty for the women readers who may be in the throes of (peri /post/or slap dab in the middle ) menopause.Scroll down to the second song

"I'm A Middle-Aged Woman"..Some of the lyrics are a wee bit "colorful" but I guarantee you will laugh and nod your head in agreement!
