Yep folks, I am a beachoholic … I am powerless over my boogie board, the warm sun on my skin, the cool wind in my hair, the sound of crashing waves and the little umbrella thingy in my glass. But I’m back now, so LOL!
The President is walking out of the White House (not for good so don’t get excited!) headed for his limo when a possible assassin steps forward aiming a gun. A secret service agent, new on the job, shouts, “Mickey Mouse!” This startles the would-be assassin and he is captured. Later, the secret service agent’s supervisor takes him aside and asks, “What in the h— made you shout ‘Mickey Mouse?’” Blushing, the agent replies, “I got really nervous! I meant to shout Donald, duck!”
After having dug to a depth of 10 feet, New York City scientists found traces of copper cable dating back 100 years. Their conclusion was that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago!
Not to be outdone by the New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed a Los Angeles archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet outside Oceanside, California. A story then appeared in the L.A. Times that the finding of 200-year-old copper cable meant that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech communications 100 years earlier than the New Yorkers. A week later, a local newspaper in Galveston, Texas reported that Bubba, a self-taught archaeologist, dug down about 30 feet in his pasture near the community of Texas City and found nothing! Bubba then concluded that 300 years ago, Texas had already gone wireless! Yep, my friends, makes me proud to be from Texas!
Many of you ask for more from the kids writing about the ocean, so here are a couple: Sharks are ugly and mean, and have big teeth, just like Emily Smith. She’s not my friend anymore! (Kylie, Age 6) … Some eels are electric! They live in caves under the sea where I think they have to plug themselves in to chargers! (Chris, Age 7) … and da best: My dad was a sailor on the ocean and loved it! He knows all about the ocean, but what he doesn’t know is why he quit being a sailor and married my mom! (James, Age 7), and the teacher definitely did not share this one!
More signs on posters in front of that Seattle convenience store, as many of you asked for more: I Want To Grow My Own Food But I Can’t Find Bacon Seeds! … This Is My Step Ladder, I Never Knew My Real Ladder! … They’re Not Going To Make Yardsticks Any Longer! … and the grand finale: Frog Parking Only. All Others Will Be Toad!
To close, my friends, just remember: Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to it! Do kind acts, smile often and be happy, don’t worry! Aloha … a hui hou.
