Sad News - Brain Transplant . . . Thx Dr. Ralph H !

Hospital Visit

Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber.  "I'm afraid I'm the

bearer of bad news," he said as he surveyed the worried faces.
"The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant.
It's an experimental procedure, very risky, but it is the only hope.
Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay for the
BRAIN.
The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a time,
someone asked, "How much will a brain cost?"
The doctor quickly responded, "$5,000 for a Democrat's brain; $200 for a
Republican's brain."
The moment turned awkward.  Some of the Democrats actually had to try not
to smile, avoiding eye contact with the Republicans  A man unable to
control his curiosity, finally blurted out the question everyone wanted to
ask, "Why is the Democrat's brain so much more than a Republican's brain?"
The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and explained to the entire
group, "It's just standard pricing procedure.  We have to price the
Republicans' brains a lot lower because they're used."
SEND THIS TO A Republican WHO NEEDS A LAUGH, AND TO ANY Democrat WHOM YOU
THINK CAN HANDLE A JOKE!
"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the
Government take care of him better take a closer look at the American
Indian."
……Henry Ford

Prejudging? I want to be part of the right slanted movement in ruling our democratic republic.  I believe the ‘movement’ is by the ‘salt of the earth’ persons who believe in God and the freedoms of citizens of any country. I will not  prejudge, but I will tell you what I feel in my heart. The left is sponsored world-wide by George Soros and his accomplices of evil.  Any left-leaning persons or organizations do not have the well-being of the ordinary citizens of any country as their goal.  Platitudes abound. I believed Donald Trump would win when he declared as a candidate for President of the United States of America.  I believed it more after he won the Republication nomination over some fine candidates.  I believe he entered the campaign trail with a great deal of courage and discovered the movement already in place.  It was then that his courage was enhanced.  It came by the numbers of those ‘salt of the earth’ types accumulating great crowds wherever he spoke.  The Dona;ld fell in love with the people of these crowds and they buoyed up his desires to make America great again.  Hillary mocked this thought saying America is already great.  She realized more popular votes, but the electoral thoughts of our founders resulted in a mandate by the country versus a few very populist locales. Donald Trump is a pragmatist and God was at work in his life when he wisely selected Mike Pence as his running mate.  Mike, a confessed Christian and the other Trump supporters have come to earnestly and repeatedly express their respect for Mr. Trump. Soros broke the bank in England and he wants desperately to break wall street and any vestige of Christianity in this world.  His money is influencing the left-leaning media of the world and any group he can lobby or buy to ultimately bring the riches of the world into the hands of the super- rich rulers around the world. Even in this second day of Donald Trump’s administration, there are demonstrators world-wide against the Trump Administration.  Women marching in places all over the world.  I believe George’s money is involved in the demonstrations. I there any hate involved in saying “I would burn down the white house . . . “ I believe so. Women should look around at systems other than America’s. What is so desirable about Sharia Law?. Is it preferable to the American constitution?  I don’t think so.  Do Islamic rules permit much in the womens’ favor.   Most wisdom I have witnessed comes from the right or conservative side of world politics. When it is wrapped in the goodness of Christianity it is “a shining city on a hill” as one former American president implied. Yes, I believe all of this and you may think I am wrong, but I say those of the non-prejudicial left should give this administration a chance, at least for this first year.

Quote of the day by Dianne Feinstein . . .

Dianne Feinstein: "All vets are mentally ill in some way and
government should prevent them from owning firearms."

Yep, -  she really said it on Thursday in a meeting in front of the
Senate Judiciary Committee. . . . And the quote below from the LA
Times is priceless. Sometimes even the L.A. Times gets it right.

Kurt Nimmo: "Senator Feinstein insults all U.S. Veterans as she flails
about in a vain attempt to save her anti-firearms bill."

Quote of the Day from the Los Angeles Times:
“Frankly, I don't know what it is about California, but we seem to
have a strange urge to elect really obnoxious women to high office.
I'm not bragging, you understand, but no other state, including Maine,
even comes close. When it comes to sending left-wing dingbats to
Washington, we're Number One. There's no getting around the fact that
the last time anyone saw the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein,
Maxine Waters, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when
the curtain went up on 'Macbeth '. The four of them are like jackasses
who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don't know if you should
condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to
form words."
Columnist Burt Prelutsky, Los Angeles Times

Be sure to forward this to all of the "mentally ill" vets you know.
Especially the ones with guns.

Grumpy Receptionist

Yesterday I had an appointment to see the urologist for a prostate exam. Of course I was a bit on edge because all my friends have either gone under the knife or had those pellets implanted.
The waiting room was filled with patients.
As I approached the receptionist’s desk, I noticed that she was a large unfriendly woman who looked like a Sumo wrestler.
I gave her my name, and in a very loud voice, she said,

“YES, I HAVE YOUR NAME HERE. YOU WANT TO SEE THE DOCTOR ABOUT IMPOTENCE, RIGHT?

All the patients in the waiting room snapped their heads around to look at me, a now very embarrassed man. But as usual, I recovered quickly, and in an equally loud voice replied,

> > “NO, I’VE COME TO INQUIRE ABOUT A SEX CHANGE

> > OPERATION, BUT I DON’T WANT THE SAME DOCTOR

The room erupted in applause!

Scam- Paper on back windshield after gassing up . . . Thx Paul C!

May have been sent this before but still good to know.

Subject: Fw: Warning from Police ( worth reading ))








This is the thing these days, with people out of work and needing cash
(mainly for drugs!).  Beware, it's headed your way.

Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public parking area.
As we drove away I noticed a sticker on the rear window of the car.
When I got home and took it off, it was a receipt for gas.  Luckily my
friend had told me not to stop as it could be someone waiting for me
to get out of the car.  Then we received this email yesterday:

WARNING FROM POLICE:  THIS APPLIES TO BOTH WOMEN AND MEN.

BEWARE OF A PIECE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE (A NEW
WAY TO DOCARJACKING!)  (NOT A JOKE!)

Heads up everyone!  Please, keep this circulating.

You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside.  You
start the engine and shift into reverse.
When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your parking
space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear
window.  So, you shift into Park, unlock your doors, and jump out of
your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing
your view.  When you reach the back of your car, that is when the
carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off.
They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car. And guess
what, ladies ?  I bet your purse is still in the car! So now the
carjacker has your car, your home address, your money, and your keys.
Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!

BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED.

If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window, just drive
away.  Remove the paper later!  And be thankful that you read this
e-mail.

I hope you will forward this to friends and family, especially to
women.  A purse contains all kinds of personal information and
identification documents, and you certainly do NOT want it to fall
into the wrong hands.

Please keep this going and tell all your family and friends!

Fender Skirts and supper . . . Thx Keith Band Sarah R!

Subject: Fender Skirts and Supper

 

 

                 

 

 

FENDER SKIRTS AND SUPPER
I know some of you will not understand this message,
but I bet you know someone who might. 

I came across this phrase yesterday.

'FENDER SKIRTS'

 

 

A term I haven't heard in a long time, and thinking about
'fender skirts' started me thinking
about other words that quietly disappear from our language 

with hardly a notice like'curb feelers'

 

 

And 'steering knobs.' (AKA)
'suicide knob,' 'hollywood spinners.'
'neckers knobs.'

 

Since I'd been thinking of cars,
my mind naturally went that direction first.

Any kid will probably have to find some older person over 50

to explain some of these terms to you.

Remember 'Continental kits?'
They were rear bumper extenders and spare tire covers 

that were supposed to make any car as cool as a Lincoln Continental.

 

 

 

When did we quit calling them 'emergency brakes?
At some point 'parking brake' became the proper term.  

But I miss the hint of drama that went with 'emergency brake.'

 

I'm sad, too, that almost all the old folks are gone who

would call the accelerator the 'foot feed.'

Many today do not even know what a clutch is

or that the dimmer switchused to be on the floor.
For that matter, the starterwas down there too.

 

 

 

Didn't you ever wait at the street for your daddy to come home,

so you could ride the'running board' up to the house?

 

 

 

Here's a phrase I heard all the time in my youth

but never anymore -'store-bought.'

Of course, just about everything is store-bought these days.

But once it was bragging material to have a
store-bought dress or a store-bought bag of candy.

 

 

 

'Coast to coast' is a phrase that once held all sorts of excitement

and now means almost nothing.
Now we take the term 'worldwide' for granted. 

This floors me.

 

 

 

On a smaller scale, 'wall-to-wall' was once a magical term in our homes.

In the '50s, everyone covered his or her hardwood floors with,

wow, wall-to-wall carpeting!

Today, everyone replaces their wall-to-wall carpeting
with hardwood floors.  Go figure.

 

 

 

When was the last time you heard the quaint phrase 'in a family way?'

It's hard to imagine that the word 'pregnant'

was once considered a little too graphic,
a little too clinical for use in polite company, 

so we had all that talk about stork visits

and 'being in a family way' or simply 'expecting.'

Apparently 'brassiere' is a word no longer in usage.

I said it the other day and my daughter cracked up.

I guess it's just 'bra' now.

'Unmentionables' probably wouldn't be understood at all.

I always loved going to the'picture show,'

but I considered 'movie' an affectation.

 

 

 

Most of these words go back to the '50s,

but here's a pure '60s word I came across the other day'rat fink.'

Ooh, what a nasty put-down!

 

 

 

Here's a word I miss -'percolator.'
That was just a fun word to say.
And what was it replaced with? 

Coffee maker. How dull! 

Mr. Coffee, I blame you for this.

 

 

 

I miss those made-up marketing words

that were meant to sound so modern and now sound so retro.

Words like 'Dyna Flow'and 'Electrolux' and 'Frigidaire'.

Introducing the 1963 Admiral TV, now with'Spectra Vision!'

 

 

Food for thought.
Was there a telethon that wiped out lumbago?

Nobody complains of that anymore.

Maybe that's what Castor oil cured,

because I never hear mothers threatening kids

with Castor Oil anymore.

 

 

 

Some words aren't gone, but are definitely on the endangered list.
The one that grieves me most is 'supper.'

Now everybody says 'dinner.'  Save a great word.
Invite someone to supper.  Discuss fender skirts.

 

 

 

Someone forwarded this to me.
I thought some of us of a 'certain age' would remember most of these.

 

 

 

Just for fun, pass it along to others
of 'a certain age.'

 

IF YOU AREN'T OF A CERTAIN AGE, YOU MUST KNOW SOMEONE WHO IS.
