Husband Store

A store that sells husbands has just opened in Dallas, TX, where woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates."You may visit the store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the attributes of the men increase as the shopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch. You may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!"

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband . . .

On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have jobs.

The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love kids.

The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids, and are extremely good looking. "Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads: Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love kids, are drop-dead good looking and help with the housework. "Oh,mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"

Still, she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads: Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are drop-dead gorgeous, help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping here

Some pretty Good Quotes

I was just browsing the internet at work during a down moment. I wanted to find the quote that is attributed to Nelson Mandela that was said on the movie "Coach Carter" by Timo Cruz. But instead I found some other really good quotes that I'm going to post. I will comment on them later when I get a few more minutes.

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
Nelson Mandela

If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.
Nelson Mandela

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
Nelson Mandela

There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintop of our desires.
Nelson Mandela

We must use time wisely and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right.
Nelson Mandela

Lets just let the poor guys be!

Well, I've had a lot of time to think about a few things since watching the Super Bowl last Sunday. I was hoping to see the Seatle Seahawks win the game, only because they were the underdog and have never won a superbowl before. My team is the Denver Broncos so I honestly didn't care who won the game. As I watched the game I saw several things that upset me. I didn't agree with some of the calls the officals made and unfortunately some of those calls did seem to change the flow of the game. After the game I steamed about why the referee squad was so terrible and like many other people in America felt like the Seahawks got the short end of the stick. This caused me to think back to several other games I have watched in the past year. The Troy Polomalu interception that was interperted as a incomplete pass, the whole situation with A.J. Pierzynski and the Angels in the ALCS, and many countless other times a bad call or something that I didn't agree with has happened.
I have had the opportunity to be a umpire for a little leauge baseball game and have been a referee in many basketball games. I would have to say that it isn't the most fun that I have ever had. I think I would even go so far to say that it sucked real bad, and that was only little leauge and church ball. I can't even imagine what it would be like to have the pressure that college and professional officals face on a regular basis. You know no matter what you saw or what happened your wrong. If its not the player, its the coach, and if not either of them then it is the assanine fans who some how know everything there is to know about sports because they watch it on tv or in real life sometimes. I think that we all need to stop focusing so much on the officals and get back to whats important the Game. Of corse there is the occasional idot offical like the crew who officated the Duke vs Florida State basketball game. If you read up on that you will see that some officals are just idiots and definately win games for some teams. But overall I think that the officals do a decent job.
Its a fact of life that superstars are going to get some calls that the normal joe shmoe would never get. There isn't anything that we can do about that and there never will be. I think the sooner we get back to the game and stop focusing on the officals the better off we will be. But to do that teams, coaches and fans are going to have to own up to a lot of stuff. Its true the officals did make some bad calls in the Super Bowl but that wasn't the reason that Jeremy Stevens dropped several passes that would have made a huge difference or the reason that Seattle missed 2 field goals as well. The referee botched the call on the Polomalu interception but had the Steelers lost the game it would have been because of their defense not being able to stop the Colts last drive or even because of the Jerome Bettis fumble near the end of the game. The umpire clearly made a bad call in the ALCS but even the Angels coach said that they couldn't blame the umpire for them loosing the series.
Unfortunately I don't see players, coaches or fans owning up to much of anything in the near future. Joey Porter and his idiot comment about the refs wanting the Colts to win their game is evidence of that. So I do think that the umpires and referees will be under continued scrutiny and pressure, to do something that is unhumanly possible except for one man, and that is be perfect. But in the mean time it sure would be nice to be able to watch a game and just watch a game.

How polically stupid are you?

John McCain Congratulations, you scored 32 politically stupid.

Well, you're certainly not red, but you're not all blue either. Maybe like a tomato with a little bit of blue mold on it. Read more Ann Coulter and Larry Elder, and be sure to take plenty of vitamin B12.
