FEBRUARY 6, 2009
MOOOOOOO!!!!  

 A blonde city girl named Amy marries a Colorado rancher. One morning, on his way out to check on the cows, the rancher says to  Amy... "The insemination man is coming over to impregnate one of our cows today, so I drove a nail into the 2x4 just above where the cow's stall is in the barn. Please show him where the cow is when he gets here, OK?" The rancher leaves for the fields, and Amy gets started on the houses daily cleaning chores and starts a pot of soup for their lunch.  After a while, the artificial insemination man arrives and knocks on the front door enquiring about the cow he was there to inseminate.  Amy smiled and said, "Sure just follow me sir."
  They walked along the row of cows, and when Amy saw the nail driven into the 2x4 above the cows stall, she tells him...
 "This is the one right here."  The man, being a bit of a jerk, assuming he is dealing with an air head blonde, jeeringly asks...  "Tell me lady, 'cause I'm dying to know,  how would YOU know that this is the right cow to be bred?" Amy being of a patient nature said to him in a sweet voice...  "Well it is very easy to tell... I know because of the nail that's in the 2x4 over this stall."  Laughing rudely at her, the man says.. "And what, pray tell, is the nail  for?" Amy swings her blonde hair back behind her ears and as she  turns to walk away,  says sweetly over her shoulder, "I guess it's to hang your pants on."

I am convinced she is an alien.. no way can she be human and do what she does with that ball. No way. No freaking way.. SEE WHAT I MEAN!!!!...
NO WAY IS THAT GIRL HUMAN!!!!!...
I AM PRETTY SURE THE BALL IS
AN ALIEN BALL ... WONDER WHERE THE OTHER ONE OF THE SET IS AT..
MAYBE I DON'T REALLY WANT TO KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION..

JANUARY 28, 2009 UNITED FRIENDS WRITERS GROUP CHALLENGE NUMBER ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN.... ODE TO MY LITTLE TOE... THE SEQUEL.. SWEATIN' TO THE TOESIES

JANUARY 28, 2009 UNITED FRIENDS WRITERS GROUP CHALLENGE NUMBER ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN.... ODE TO MY LITTLE TOE... THE SEQUEL.. SWEATIN' TO THE TOESIES Celticfrog's Challenge Write the next chapter to any story you have written to a previous challenge. Please link to the old story.If you are a poet, add stanzas or write a response to a previous poem.

ODE TO MY LITTLE TOE...
 THE SEQUEL..
SWEATIN' TO THE TOESIES
As my story of toe woe
Has already been told
Some time ago
About how odd the habits
Of my left little toe
And its ability to wander to and fro...
I will now tell of help for my littlest toe
Of a cure,
 found when I clicked "Go! Mr. Googles"
Help was on the internet
By the bunches
Nay.. by the kit and kaboodles!
The best simple home remedies
Were found at  Mayo
Nay, it was not on a sandwich
Between layers of bread!
Not that kind of Mayo 'at all!
Tis a place where magic happens
They can teach fallen little toes
To return home from the odd places they would crawl
They told me to not be so cruel
To throw out those high heel shoes
Not to be a fool!
They made this a strict rule
Those evil shoes are the reason
 For my littlest piggy to rebel
It was shoe toe abuse
 Which caused it to hit the toe trail
We didn't even have to call Dr. Phil..
 To get him to help figure out
No need for a pill..
Or a makeover by Robin
And that really different blonde guy
Who must send them a great big bill!!
Just a switch from Spigas to Dr. Scholls
Even if it does make my feet look like
My friend ..  Trouble Trolls
And some exercises for my little toes
 And this lovely gel filled Yoga Toes
Splint to wear while "Sweatin' to the Toesies"
Doing the marble pickup drills
On several occasions each day
No mercy is spared to my wandering piggy toe
As it does its dishtowel crunch ups
 Then without a break, nary a cup..
It is on to the marble pickup
Hustle little wandering toe
Grab those marbles!
Put them in a cup!
One Two Three ...
.Hup! Hup! Hup!
Even if the exercises can't cure Hammer the Toe
Even if Dr. Phil says it is all my fault
"Woman! Own that toe abuse!"
My littlest piggy
 And I have called a truce..
It is too tired to groan and moan now..
It is quiet and doesn't hurt me
If I decide to ask it to move
 Straight ahead ..
getting back into its old groove
It is content now to just flex like a happy toe
To sing in harmony with the rest of the set
It has changed its name back to Billy Joe
No longer is it my walking foe!

Getting all this internet Mayo help
Just made me want to holler and yelp!
I just may...
Someday....
Wear some Dr. Scholls boots...

And it didn't cost me a penny in loot!
 I need to open up email
Find out where Dr. Scholls' shoes come from
Cause without fail
Sure as I am telling this tale...
His shoes are in need of some

Yoga Toes Gel!
THE END

JANUARY 27, 2009 LOCKIE ICE LAND UPDATE.. YEEHAAWW!.. I STILL HAVE POWER! NO POPSICLES LEFT THOUGH...

JANUARY 27, 2009

LOCKIE "ICE" LAND UPDATE..

YEEHAAWW!..

 I STILL HAVE POWER!

NO POPSICLES LEFT THOUGH...

Well by some kind of miracle I have still have electricity! It is awful outside.. It has been freezing rain that only accumulates on the trees and power lines, the temperature is a constant 33 degrees. The roads are still clear though.. too strange even for me!
 The governor has issued a state of emergency for my area. We are looking at snow and sleet later on tonight.. quite frankly if it doesn't stop this raining soon..and stop accumulating, everything is going to simply pop into little pieces! Snow and sleet would be a good thing, believe it or not.. it doesn't stick to trees and power lines... sigh.. I went out and took a few pictures of what I have here and up further north about 40 miles.. they have twice this much ice on the trees and power lines..
The last reported amount of people without power right now stands at approx. 30,000 in my state.. I don't know what is going on in Oklahoma... but in Arkansas.. it is almost too weird to describe .
 The pine and cedar trees are just like big balls of fuzzy looking ice, that are bowing down to the ground. The hard wood trees.. like oak, sweet gum, maple.. etc... look like they have been dipped in a really thick clear sealer. They are shiny and somehow magnified.. but the ground is like a flood plain.. so much water has fallen over night and during the day, the evil demon gophers, instead of dry tunnels..leading to their underground military installations, now have water flooding them and making little fountains!  Homer has been giggling all day long! lol  Over 100 local schools are shut down.. all colleges are shut down.. Most of the manufacturers in the area have canceled 2nd and 3rd shifts and told tomorrows 1st shift to call before they head out to work in the morning..  They have just issued a down tree warning for people driving right now.. they showed some poor guy in a pickup that got whapped with a big limb.. kind of caved in the cab of his truck pretty good.. but he is okay.. I do not know what is keeping these electric lines from snapping.. I better hush and post this before I do go black.. Latest breaking news from your very own" Lockie Land Staying In The House Cause She Ain't No Fool..Reporter!" It's Icky Out There Y'all!

 SIGH...
 WANNA POPSICLE?

Well... I guess it is going to become true this time.. sigh.. I am getting freezing rain and it is going to continue all night long.. I figure by in the morning .. I will have no electricity.... sigh... sigh... sigh.... I have been through three of these things since, I think it was 1996... and I am more prepared for it .. but I still hate this shit! One lady has already been killed in a traffic accident in Arkansas, by sliding on black ice. In the town I live about 20 miles from.. there have been over 100 traffic fender bender type accidents today. You can be the best driver in the world and somebody else wham into you.. it just sucks pig puddle water that is green and has large stinky chunks of pig poo in it! We went to town early today and stocked up on stuff.. like oil for the oil lamps and kerosene for the lanterns.. we hauled enough wood to last a week probably for the fire place.. and got the generator going.. Right now I am wondering what this has got to do with global warming.. cause I am not very warm!
I have had some mighty unusual weather last year and this year is not starting off to a very good beginning.. sigh..
 Wanna Popsicle?
  lol.. So if I disappear.. know that the power is off and boyfriend will not give up his television for me to run my puter.. he is like that ya know.. stingy sucker!
HE gets no popsicle!

JANUARY 26, 2009 SHERIFF JOE... THE MAN WITH THE RIGHT PLAN!

JANUARY 26, 2009
 SHERIFF JOE...
THE MAN WITH THE RIGHT PLAN!





STOLE THIS ONE FROM MY FRIEND NORMIE!

TO THOSE OF YOU NOT FAMILIAR WITH JOE ARPAIO HE IS THE MARICOPA, ARIZONA COUNTY SHERIFF  HE KEEPS GETTING ELECTED OVER AND OVER
reelected last year with 83% of the vote.

HERE ARE FEW OF THE REASONS WHY HE KEEPS GETTING THE VOTES IN
MARICOPA,  ARIZONA ! He has replaced all prison supplies with pink as the color of the prisoner jumpsuits, underwear, socks.. and even towels and washcloths are all pink. He has jail meals down to 40 cents a serving and charges the inmates for them.
He cut out coffee when he found out it had 0 nutritional value. He started chain gangs so the inmates could do work on county and city projects to earn the meal money .
 When the ACLU noticed his activities, fearing discrimination suits, he created female chain gangs also. He stopped smoking and porno magazines in the jails. Took away their weights Cut off all but 'G' movies. He took away cable TV Until he found out there was Federal Court Order that required cable TV for jails, so he hooked up the cable TV again, but only allows into the prison, The Disney Channel And The Weather Channel. When asked why the weather channel He Replied," So They Will Know How Hot It's Gonna Be While They Are Working on the Chain Gangs." When the inmates complained, he told them,
"This Isn't The Ritz/Carlton......
If You Don 't Like It, Don 't Come Back." He created the "Tent City Jail" With Temperatures Being Even Hotter Than Usual In Phoenix (116 Degrees Just Set A New Record), the Associated Press Reports: About 2,000 Inmates Living In A Barbed-Wire-Surrounded Tent Encampment At The Maricopa County Jail Have Been Given Permission To Strip Down To Their Government-Issued Pink Boxer Shorts. On Wednesday, instead of being on the chain gang, hundreds of men wearing pink boxers were either curled up on their bunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached 138 Degrees Inside The Week Before. When inmate James Zanzot, who has been living in the tent jail for over a year now, complained that it was "like a furnace" and " it was inhumane treatment" got this answer from the good sheriff, "It's 120 Degrees In Iraq And Our Soldiers Are Living In Tents Too,
 And They Have To Wear Full Battle Gear!
But They Didn't Commit Any Crimes,
So Shut Your Mouth!'
Oh, there's MUCH more to know about Sheriff Joe!
This is his latest accomplishment!
Maricopa County was spending approx. $18 million dollars a year on stray animals, like cats and dogs. Sheriff Joe offered to take the department over, and the County Supervisors gladly agreed to hand the problem to him. The animal shelters are now all staffed and operated by prisoners. They feed and care for the strays. Every animal in his care is taken out and walked twice daily. He now has prisoners who are experts in animal nutrition and behavior. They give great classes for anyone who'd like to adopt an animal. He has literally taken stray dogs off the street, given them to the care of prisoners, and had them place in dog shows. The best part?
 His budget for the entire department is now under
$3 million.
  One lady who adopted a Weimaraner from a Maricopa County shelter two years ago says, " He was neutered, current on all shots, in great health, and even had a microchip inserted the day we got him. Cost us $78." The prisoners get the benefit of about $0.28 an hour for working, but most would work for free, just to be out of their cells for the day. Most of his budget is for utilities, building maintenance, etc. He pays the prisoners out of the fees collected for adopted animals. It makes one wonder  when the rest of the country would take a look at the way he runs the jail system, and copy some of his ideas. He has a huge farm, donated to the county years ago, where inmates can work, and they grow most of their own fresh vegetables and food, doing all the work and harvesting by hand. The portion of the farm that is dedicated to hogs, provides meat for the prisoners to eat, and fertilizer for the Christmas tree nursery, where prisoners work.  You can buy a living Christmas tree for $6 - $8 for the Holidays, and plant it later in your yard. Now he's in trouble with the ACLU again.
 He painted all his buses and vehicles with a large eye catching mural, printed beneath is a special hot line phone number.
It is a direct line for citizens to report suspected illegal aliens.
Immigrations and Customs Enforcement wasn't doing enough in his eyes, so in an effort to aide them in their job, he had 40 deputies trained specifically for enforcing immigration laws.
 Started the hot line, to involve others in the help he was providing them, and bought 4 new buses just for hauling folks back to the border.
He's kind of a 'Git-R Dun' kind of Sheriff.
YYYYEEEEEHHHAAAWWW
SHERIFF JOE....
 THIS IS ONE GUY
I MIGHT STILL TRUST
THAT IS IN GOVERNMENT!

JANUARY 25, 2009 DECISIONS.... WHAT TO DO? .. WHAT TO DO?

    
JANUARY 25, 2009
      DECISIONS....
WHAT TO DO? .. WHAT TO DO?

All of our lives ... from the moment our eyes open in the morning.. till they close at night.. we are making decisions. Small everyday decisions.. but decisions never the less. You know what I mean.. Everyday we have to decide what we want to eat... what we want to wear. What time to go to bed and what time to get up. What kind of toothpaste to use,  what kind of deodorant,  or dish washing liquid
Things that businesses zero in on to target advertising campaigns, in an effort to get us to buy products. Effectively giving us yet more to decide upon.    Things that won't really matter much if you make a wrong choice about it.  No real damage done if you try a new deodorant and it does not work.. unless of course your on stage accepting the Nobel Peace Prize, and you have underarm salt rings, or people start to back up when you walk into the room, and pull out a paper mask for their nose, while spritzing the air with Febreze..    
Then you might want to use those clues to realize.. your, "Secret,  Extra Heavy Duty, Strong Enough For a Man But Made For a Woman..".
is not living up to its advertised promises., and make the decision to buy something with a name like... .
"  Gorilla Secret... Made Especially For the Animal Bather at The Zoo, But You Can Use It Too."
  "Conveniently Sold in Bulk, by the  55 Gallon Drum,
 (not responsible for chemical burns to the armpit.)."  But there are times when you are faced with some that simply humble you before God and man, with the knowledge you are not up to the challenge...
Never the less ...
 "YOUR"
the one who has to make the decision, right now! Right or wrong.. it is to be done .. immediately!  There are no clues to use to help you along.. you just have to go with your gut feelings.
Those are the ones which make me  feel like I'm coming down with an intestinal flu, and just ran out of Toilet Paper. You are scared to death to do anything.. cause the wrong move can cause the shit to hit the fan, and no way to clean it up.  Where is Bounty or Brawny when you really really need them?  There have been times when a used Handi Wipe would have been welcomed with open arms.   Those kind that influence other peoples lives are the worst ones... If I were bumbling along in life all by myself..
then it would not be so harrowing to make these big life changing decisions.. cause no one would get hurt but me if they were the wrong ones.  
But that is not the way it is in my bumbling along lifes' course. So right or wrong... I have made those kinds of decisions.
 like what to do when my husband passed away and faced with running a poultry farm alone with a 15 year old son for my main helper.  Like when to shut down that farm.
Like when to walk out the door of my job one day when I could not handle the stress level any longer.
 Like putting my Dad into my car and putting my foot to the floor that day when he could not breathe and begged me not to let him die....
Wait for the ambulance or just haul butt, looking and praying for a cop to stop me on the way..
 Not one cop..
Not one!
 sigh..  I am an only child and so therefore I was never really burdened by any kind of competition for anything while growing up, so having to make a decision about things wasn't really too big an issue for me.   Dad always made the kind of decisions which changed my life and it was never argued that he might be wrong. Mom and I just paddled along assuming everything would be for the better in these decisions. I have often wondered in my adult life how he pulled off the "cool as a cucumber" act when he made one of these decisions, until I asked my Mom after he had passed away.    She told me a truth that has really put me on a better path to making those kinds of decisions    She told me that he knew that no matter what he decided.. he had her to handle all the details of making it work out.   That really made a lot of sense when I remembered how he handled everything.. If he decided to buy a new car, he would find the one he wanted, come home and tell her how much the payments would be, and then SHE cut the corners and tightened up the budget belt to make it happen..   I can't understand people who want to be in the Managers or CEOs positions in a company...
They "WANT" to be the ones who have to make these spur of the moment mega decisions...
They are well paid to be under that gun I guess.. Personally.. I think I just want to have a deal like Mom and Dad did, seemed to work out pretty good for all concerned.

 But for all the women like me out there bumbling along in life... wondering from day to day...
 "What to Do.?. What to Do?.."

 All I can say is..

 " Ain't Life a Bitch?"

 See what I mean.!
That is just one more decision for you to make today
 
  Sorry bout that!

JANUARY 13, 2009 UNITED FRIENDS CHALLENGE NUMBER ONE HUNDRED NINE

ODE TO MY LITTLE TOE Rosiebeck's Challenge Tell us what part of your body that you like and why. Write which way you want - funny, tragic, gloatingly or just Thankful...:)

ODE TO MY LITTLE TOE
My littlest toe, has always been so cute. It is always pink and perky Too perfect to cover with a boot
But lately the piggy on the right foot
Has forgotten its way
It wants to go on vacation to town
Taking a different route
Making me yell
OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!
All the way there and home
The one on the left is still my friend I polish its nail again and again It is quiet, it does not groan So nice and helpful Never a moan
But the one on the right foot Won't allow me to cover it with a boot It has decided to travel a different route It is kind of twisty now.. not a bit cute
I still love my littlest toe..
 please understand But now that it is jealous of the piggy next to it Wanting to cross over it and discover new land I no longer think it is all that grand It has even changed its name
I am full of woe It is now called "hammer toe"
Oh what happened to the name "Billie"
Or even "Billie Joe Toe"
 Its nail looks just awful With polish all aglow
Showing itself to be wandering
Too and Fro
.Maybe if I were to get it a nail file too It would stop trying to run away Maybe it would not be so blue And maybe Just maybe...
It will mend its meandering ways
And spend its time with the file
Making me really smile...
Instead of hammering
the nerves in my entire foot And I would stop cussing it Cause helping it find its true course again

 Is gona cost a lot of loot!

JANUARY 11, 2009 THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF SEX IN 2009

       
JANUARY 11, 2009 THE DIFFERENT
 TYPES OF SEX
 IN 2009 I have stolen this from my friend Samantha's blog. I enjoyed it and wanted to share it with you all.. Thanks Samantha.. you post some of the best jokes I have ever heard!

  Pension Sex                   Two men were talking.  "So, how's your sex life?"         "Oh, nothing special. I'm having Pension sex."         "Pension sex?"         "Yeah, you know; I get a little each month, but not enough to live on!"
LOUD SEX   A wife went in to see a therapist and said, 'I've got a big problem, doctor. Every time we're in bed and my husband climaxes, He lets out this ear splitting yell.' 'My dear,' the  shrink said, 'that's completely natural. I don't see what the problem is.' 'The problem is,' she complained, 'it wakes me up!'
QUIET SEX Tired of a listless sex life, the man came right out and asked his wife During a recent lovemaking session, 'How come you never tell me when you have an orgasm?' She glanced at him and replied, 'You're never home!'
     CONFOUNDED SEX   A man was in a terrible accident, and his 'manhood' was mangled and torn from his body . His doctor assured him that modern medicine could give him back his manhood, but that his insurance wouldn't   cover the surgery since it was considered cosmetic. The doctor said the cost would be...   $3,500 for 'small,$6,500 for 'medium,  and $14,000 for 'large.' The man was sure he would want a medium or large,
 but the doctor urged him to talk it over with his wife before he made any decision. The man called his wife on the phone and explained their options. The doctor came back into the room, and found the man looking dejected. 'Well, what have the two of you decided?' asked the doctor. The man sighing loudly responded....
