Hi Ya All......

Post by DORRIE »

I haven't had a chance to get on much the past few days..... For some reason, I have a migraine that refuses to leave... :mallet: The imitrex helps, but it keeps coming back. I think it may be the weather.

Anyway, A friend sent me this joke, and I had to put it on the main board cuz I didn't want anyone to miss it. I wasn't sure whether I should laugh or cry at it, but it is funny.... :lol: :cry:





WHAT IS THE FASTEST THING YOU KNOW OF?



An office manager at Wal-Mart was given the task of hiring an individual to fill a job opening. After sorting through a stack of resumes he found four people who were equally qualified. He decided to call the four in and ask them only one question. Their answer would determine which of them would get the job.

The day came and as the four sat around the conference room table the interviewer asked, "What is the fastest thing you know of?"

Acknowledging the first man on his right, the man replied, "A THOUGHT." It just pops into your head. There's no warning that it's on the way; it's just there. A thought is the fastest thing I know of."

"That's very good!" replied the interviewer. "And now you sir?" he asked the second man.

"Hmm.... let me see. A blink! It comes and goes and you don't know that it ever happened. A BLINK is the fastest thing I know of."

"Excellent!" said the interviewer. "The blink of an eye, that's a very popular cliche for speed."

He then turned to the third man who was contemplating his reply.

"Well, out at my dad's ranch, you step out of the house and on the wall there's a light switch. When you flip that switch, way out across the pasture the light in the barn comes on in less than an instant. Yep, TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of."

The interviewer was very impressed with the third answer and thought he had found his man. "It's hard to beat the speed of light," he said.

Turning to Bubba, the fourth and final man, the interviewer posed the same question. Old Bubba replied, "After hearing the three previous answers. It's obvious to me that the fastest thing known is DIARRHEA."

"WHAT!?" said the interviewer, stunned by the response.

"Oh I can explain." said Old Bubba. "You see the other day I wasn't feeling so good, and I ran for the bathroom, but, before I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON THE LIGHT, I had already messed in my pants."

Old Bubba is now the new greeter at a Wal-Mart near you!!!!

Hope you are all doing well, will talk to you later. :wave:

Love, Dorrie

Hope he doesn't have an accident while he's doing his greeting or Walmart would lose a lot of customers.

Hi, Dorrie! Yes, I see what you mean - I laughed, but then I didn't. It's sad, but true, but funny!

So sorry to hear about your migraine. I used to get them a lot, and thankfully don't hardly ever get them anymore. But boy I can still remember how awful they are - and if they go on long enough, you really get depressed and discouraged on top of being sick. Hang in there and try to keep cool. Have you ever tried putting a heating pad or hot washcloth on your head during the bad times? That used to help me a lot.

Hi Dorrie,

Boy is that so true. I actually laughed at first and then got real serious too because this is something that has struck almost all of us.

Glad to see you back and hope that migraine gets lost. This weather with the high humidity and barometic pressure seems to cause them in me.

Love, Maggie

Hi Dorrie!

What a pretty lady you are! Love your avatar. I remember from before, when I saw a photo of you, how beautiful your complexion is. What is your secret?

Love,

Polly
