In the past decade over 110 people have died in gyms.   In that same period of time, only one person has died eating donuts. Stats don’t lie.

I learn from the mistakes of others who take my advice.

On the subject of fitness,  the average person used 14 muscles to pour a cup of coffee.  Fitness is my passion.

Why was the storm so good at romance?

It always knew how to make sparks fly.

I woke up in the middle of the night and saw two white eyes at the foot of my bed.  I'm so sorry I keep a baseball bat by the bed.  It was moonlight on my big toenails.  I guess I should be glad my pistol was farther away.

How does the Easter Bunny travel?    By hare-plane.


Why was the Easter Bunny bad at arguing?     He always jumps to conclusions.


What did the Easter Bunny say to the carrot?    “It’s been nice gnawing you.”



Happy Easter everyone!

Just before sweet potatoes are mashed they become very quiet.

This is known as "the silence of the yams."

Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

I was invited to a wedding and reception at the church across from the cemetery by my property. All of a sudden a woman made a big fuss about the $300 she had in her purse that was missing. So I went to the men’s room and checked in my pocket. There was only $50.00.   How can some people lie like that?!

I didn't feel like cooking tonight, so I made a sandwich for dinner...

I guess more just grain...

Distilled, fermented grain...

I had a whisky for dinner tonight.

I knew an old veterinarian. He had a quirky sense of humor.

He once told a veterinary student that developing goat kids will grow longer incisors, so when they're born they can latch on to mama more readily.


He called it " Fangs for the Mammaries".....

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a venison steak. But all of Bubba's neighbors were Catholic....and since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.

The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest.

The Priest came to visit Bubba and suggested that he become a Catholic. After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass and as the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, 'You were born a Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic.'

Bubba's neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison again filled the neighborhood. The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors and as he rushed into Bubba's yard clutching a rosary preparing to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.

There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:

"You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish."

My wife has been less than happy with me for a while now. This latest episode began on Valentines Day. I forgot it until daybreak that morning. I knew I was going to be gone for the day and nor be back till late. I wanted to do something.  So I scribbled a note on a paper towel “Happy VD Day”.   Apparently that wasn’t a good idea,

Things have been getting better between us. She had a headache, so we had one of those quiet moments on the sofa with me rubbing her head. I asked her what she did for headaches before she net met me.  She responded she never had headaches before she met me.
