We need humor. We need some funny happenings. I was driving down the highway today and something struck me very funny. I was alone, listening to the radio and began laughing. Ok, so the other drivers looked at me like I was a little off my rocker. Am a baby boomer here. There was a very popular song in the '60's called, "When A Man Loves A Woman" by Percy Sledge. It was hot hot hot to slow dance with the partner of your choice. I heard another version today and the song was called, "When A Man Loves A Chicken." Had trouble understand all the words since I was laughing too hard but each time the word woman would have been used, it was replaced with chicken. And no, it wasn't nasty. Ok fess up, what happened to you recently that was funny? Thanks in advance, carolbee

Today I was shopping and decided to take out my purse mirror to see how red my face was because it got wind burned and my face felt hot, so I took it out, put it up to my face and scared the hell out of myself when my face wasn't there in the mirror! Then I felt like an fool because I was looking at the BACK of the mirror instead of the front! What an idiot I am!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, many interesting things happen in our life. We just need to be more sensitive to the outer part. Today when I was playing volleyball with my friends, someting funny happened. I hit the ball too hard that it went into the crowd out of the playground. One of the people was really scared by the ball. I walked towards him and asked him to do me a favor. Then he just give the ball to another one who was really don't know what happened.

Well last week I had my 3 1/2 year old granddaughter...and she is always doing something funny...well when she was here I took her to visit my work place...of course she had to use the toilet....it's an automatic flusher....since she can't reach the toilet paper she has to jump off the toilet to reach and wipe...well she barely jumped off and the toilet flushed and she said Hey! I didn't even get to wipe! Well her daddy had today off so he came to visit me at work and I had to relay the story to him as I had forgotten to when I brought her home last week...we both laughed so hard! He said...that sounds about right for her! It was fun to have him stop by at work too!

What a cute story. Those crazy toilets scare me as well. As long as I know they are going to flush without my assistance, I'm ok. I don't always notice if I am in a hurry. But can imagine to a child it could be scarey. Our 4 yr. old grandson had to see a dr. They recently moved to another state, the daughter from Arizona. My little guy walked into the dr's office, shook the dr's hand and said, "Hi, my name is Chris, I am 4 but on my next birthday I will be 11." That not only tickled his mommy but I thought it was so funny when our daughter was telling me. We both had a good belly laugh. Thanks for responding.

A friend sent me a joke book, "How to Make People Think You're Normal" by Ben Goode. It has a picture of a bunch of penguins looking angrily at a penguin with a knitted pom pom hat with multi-colors like stripes, a green scarf, and a blue with yeloow, pink, and green pocka-dotted over coat and socks/boots on. Some of this book is funny, some of it is true, some of it is sick, and some of it is ridiculous, but it doesn take your mind off anything that is worrying you.

Well my brother in law was in from Mexico and he is like 37 and a legal citizen but, he was telling me a story about when he was 17 and came here illegaly the first time. Well the story started with how much walking he had to do and I thouhgt it was going to be boring. Then he told me that the only thing that he ate for 5 or 6 days was deer corn that people had left outside. That's not the funny part that was sad. Then he said once he had got to a house where they was suppossed to stay a man brought many packs og Bologna and bread. Everyone started to eat, ok here comes the funny part... he said he didn't even know what bologna was so he just started eating really fast then eating bread also not even as a sandwhich. Well after he ate several pieces like this he looked over and noticed everyone had this little red string so he says where did you get that.He then said everyonewas laughing telling him your suppossed to takeit off of the edges of bologna. He said well hell I ate it all. I laughed so hard because I couldn't figure out how you could not know to take off the little red plastic string around the bologna. He said he was so hungry from not eating he didn't feel any plastic.

That is a funny story. Poor guy was so hungry he ate the red plastic around the edges. But I probably wouldn't know to remove something if I was served a food dish from another country. I ate an enchalada once from the store and didn't take off the paper. Didn't see it until I bit into it. Glad nobody was home. Thanks for sharing your story.

I was late to my office, because i had a stomachache. Of course, my big boss angry to me. He didn't receive my reason. I didn't hear all about his voice, i just think about the bathroom. After i went to my rent home, i just smile reminded that accident. That was very funny for me. :D

Nothing funny to talk about today... but I would really like to hear the song When a man loves a chicken!! sounds really funny :) There is another song I find really funny and it's called 'A boy named Sue' - I really like it. Also whenever you need a good dose of humor, there is always youtube... look for the mom's song!! that is a funny one :) :)
