Insulting PArrot

This elderly lady, recently widowed, decides to see if a pet will ease her loneliness and goes to the pet store. She decides against puppies, kitties, etc., and is about to leave the store when she hears a voice saying, "My, do you look lovely this afternoon, madam."

She turns around quickly to see who has spoken, but there is no one. All she sees is a big green parrot, resting on his perch in his cage. "Did you say that?" she asks.

"Why, yes, I did!" he replies. "And may I add that dress is a very nice color for you."

The lady suddenly realizes how nice it would be to not only have a talking parrot, but one that paid such nice compliments. So she pays for him and takes him home. On the way, she says, "You know, I am so proud of you that I believe I'll take you out for dinner! Would you like that?"

The parrot says, "Why yes, that would be delightful. I know a charming place on 7th Street."

So they arrive home and the lady progresses upstairs to her room to change for dinner, bringing the parrot along, of course. When the woman enters the building, the parrot begins complaining, swearing, and even bit her once.

Well, the woman is flabbergasted! She grabs the parrot by the throat, marches down the stairs into the basement, and stuffs the parrot in the freezer. She leaves him there in the freezer for five long minutes before taking him back out. The parrot is very cold.

She says, "Well? Have you learned your lesson? I will not tolerate such language in my house!"

The parrot says, "Okay, okay, I promise it won't happen again. I am deeply sorry."

Within five minutes, he is cursing again and bit her once on the arm and once on the finger.

The lady is absolutely stunned. She rips the parrot out of his cage, goes down the stairs, into the cellar, and, slam, into the freezer. This time, she leaves him in there for fifteen minutes.

When she finally takes him out, the parrot is one step away from death. He is shivering and has light frost on the beak. "I swear it will never ever happen again! I will never insult you again! I promise!" As he thaws, he looks up at the lady and says, "I do have one question though. That turkey in there, what'd he do, attack you?"

Fake employer took women's urine samples

Don't know what the ultimate goal was cops? The guy is a pervert. That's what the goal was you morons.

OMAHA, Neb. - A 36-year-old Omaha man accused of luring women to his home and taking urine samples when they thought they were applying for a job was found guilty Thursday of two counts of criminal impersonation.

Victims told police Kevin Oliver said he worked for cell phone company T-Mobile and was interviewing them for jobs. Prosecutors said there never were any jobs.

"To this day, we don't know what his ultimate goal was but whatever it was it was deceptive, it was damaging and it was protracted," said Omaha city prosecutor Marty Conboy. "This went on for 18 months that we know of."

After three searches of Oliver's home, authorities came up with no other signs of criminal activity. With credit for time already served, Oliver will spend eight days in jail and 18 months on probation.

I think this blog will do well for me with posts like This.

Britney Spears Shaves Her Head



Yup...she looks like an alien head. Nice veins, or tumors she has growing out of the side of her head. Everyone is really excited about this. People are even selling her hair on Ebay claiming that you can "Own a Part of History".

Best Buy Coupons

Shopping online requires coupons if you want to make your dollar go as far as possible. My favorite online store is by far Best Buy. I am an electronics junkie and have every technological device you can imagine. When i buy online though I want to use some Best Buy Coupons to save myself some serious cash. There is no reason to pay full price when you don't have to.

Punxsutawney Phil predicts early spring

You remember Punxsutawney Phil from the movie Groundhog Day don't you? If you haven't eever seen that movie with Bill Murray you should. Bill Murray is classic in that movie. Anyways it looks like an early spring. I think they are full of crap because it has been snowing non-stop here for 3 days now.

PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. - A new pair of hands pulled Punxsutawney Phil from his stump this year, so it was only fitting that the groundhog offered a new prediction.

Phil did not see his shadow on Friday, which, according to German folklore, means folks can expect an early spring instead of six more weeks of winter.

Mortgage Rates and Calculators

When looking for Mortgage Rates it is smart to go to a site that can compare them easily for you. Take a look at this Mortgage Calculator for an example of how you want to utilize this sites search. PersonalHomeLoanMortgages.com makes it easy to find a lender and even easier to figure out what you need to get started. Information on rates, lending, and lenders is easily searchable here and the information is top notch.

Disney Bar

A man walks into a bar, and orders a beer. As he sits there, the jar of nuts on the bar tells him what a nice shirt he is wearing. Disturbed by this, he goes to the cigarette vending machine to buy a pack of smokes. As he approaches the machine, it starts screaming and shouting at him. He runs to the bar and explains this to the barman. The barman apologizes and says "The peanuts are complimentary, but the cigarette machine is out of order"!

THE Source for Soap Opera News

This site has only been around for about 6 months, but it seems to be growing like mad. All the female bloggers seem to be talking it up on their blogs and have many great things to say abou it. Soap Opera News isn't a new concept, but this site has created a one of a kind community that any soap fan would enjoy.

They ask for ideas to improve the site and it is pretty difficult to come up with something actually. I guess the main thing I would consider if I was the webmaster would be to add some sort of gallery for users to look at. Maybe even a "Classics" page that showed deep history of some of the favorite soap moments. Some of these shows have been around for over 50 years and surely have great histories. Any fan would be interested in what was going on in the show 50 years ago wouldn't they?

Man, Yoda the dog travel on riding mower

This story reminds me of a time I was sitting on my friend's porch drinking for a while when all of a sudden we saw a site that made us laugh for about 5 minutes. Just drinkin' away and down the street comes this junker with a rope behind it that is about 15 feet long. As the end of the rope appears from behind a tree we see a guy with no shirt on, holding on for dear life, on a riding lawn mower. Apparently they needed to bring it somewhere, but the driver of the car was going so fast that it looked liks eht guy on the mower was going to have a heart attack. Then not more than 15 minutes later they come back fromt eh other direction and he has the same look on his face and we laugh for another 5 minutes after seeing the spectacle. MAn that was funny.

GARDEN CITY, Utah - Joined by his dog Yoda, Paul Woods travels by day and sleeps in a tent at night. His vehicle: a riding mower. "You've got to be pretty strange and pretty weird to be driving a tractor mower across country," Woods, 44, said.

The Herald Journal of Logan caught up with Woods in the parking lot of Beaver Mountain ski resort, 107 miles north of Salt Lake City, near the Idaho border.

Getting Old

Two old ladies have played bridge together for many years, and naturally they have gotten to know each other pretty well. One day, during a game of cards, one lady suddenly looks up at the other and says, "I realize we've known each other for many years, but for the life of me, I just can't bring it to mind... would you please tell me your name again, dear?" There is dead silence for a couple of minutes, then the other lady responds, "How soon do you need to know?"
