INTERESTING ROADWORK

 What on earth is going on here?  Mr. Gexton, you may find this interesting.


 Rather strange road striping.




 Are they digging a hole?




 They are painting a hole?




 What is he standing on?




 Looks deep.




 Look at the bucket on the left side. It is apparently floating in the air.




 I suspect that this is the painter (artist).




 Wow! Walking in midair!

OH, DEER!

Fishing on the Northern Fraser River in British Colombia, Canada.


Can I fish, too?



 Move it, buddy! I'm trying to fish.




 I am trying to catch fish; not deer.



 He is kinda cute, isn't he?




 Whatcha want, Buddy?




 Oh! You're hungry!




 Yeah, that's pretty tasty.




Wow!   You really go for that!




Okay, I give up. You and I can play.  I can fish anytime.

“THE SKY IS FALLING”

One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of Chicken Little to her class.  She came to the part where Chicken Little warns the farmer. She read, "and Chicken Little went up to the farmer and said,  'The sky is falling!'"  The teacher then asked the class, "And what do you think the farmer said?"  One little girl raised
her hand and said, "I think he said, 'Holy mackerel!  A talking chicken!'"

giving it a shot.

THE MOMMY TEST

I was out walking with my 4-year-old daughter. She picked up something off the ground and started to put
it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and I asked her not to do that.

"Why?" my daughter asked.

"Because it's been lying outside, you don't know where it's been, it's dirty and probably has germs," I replied.
At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and asked, “Wow! How do you know all this stuff?"

"Uh," ...I was thinking quickly. "All moms know this stuff. It's on the Mommy Test. You have to know it, or
they don't let you be a Mommy."

We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently pondering this new information.

"Oh, I get it!" she beamed, "So if you don't pass the test you have to be the daddy."

"Exactly," I replied back with a big smile on my face and joy in my heart.
