Playing by the same rules reduces the differences between humans, chimps and monkeys:::::::::::

You’ve been asked to compete against some of your friends in a game of skill, but you realise something is amiss. They’ve been given precise instructions and details about the game’s mechanics. You’ve been given a couple of pieces and left to figure things out on your own. On this uneven playing field, no one could fairly compare your performance with that of your friends.

Closing with a wink and a smile. Have a great week.. Joe Todd…..

Farm coddles cows with waterbeds FOR REAL

The first cow in America arrived in Jamestown colony in 1611. (Not by Motorcycle) Until the 1850's, nearly every family had its own cow.

Cow, an Ant and an Old Fart
A Cow, an Ant and an Old Fart are debating on who is the greatest of the three of them.
The Cow: I give 12 gallons of milk every day and that's why I am the greatest!!
The Ant: I work day and night, summer and winter, I can carry 52 times my own weight and that's why I am the greatest!!
Why are you scrolling down? It's your turn to say something...

96x96 WHAT’S WRONG WITH THAT ?????

It's been a very busy day, I haven't stopped for a minute.""Can you do me a favor?" he asked.I said, "Of course, anything, what is it?"He said, "Hurry up and take your shot, I'm right behind you on the 7th hole."

OSU update::: Schlichter Allegedly Tests Positive For Cocaine. Should have gone with popcorn.

 Jan 19th is a little known national holiday “National Pop Corn Day” History of Popcorn..Eat Popcorn and watch the Snow Dance: A Snow Dance to Bring in the Flakes at Vail

AND NOW YOU KNOW

 Why the U.S. was downgraded:
* U.S. Tax revenue: $2,170,000,000,000
* Fed budget: $3,820,000,000,000
* New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000
* National debt: $14,271,000,000,000
* Recent budget cuts: $ 38,500,000,000
Let's now remove 8 zeros and pretend it's a household budget:
* Annual family income: $21,700
* Money the family spent: $38,200
* New debt on the credit card: $16,500
* Outstanding balance on the credit card: $142,710
* Total budget cuts: $385Got It ?????


OK now Lesson # 2:
Here's another way to look at the Debt Ceiling:
Let's say, You come home from work and find there has been a sewer
backup in your neighborhood....and your home has sewage all the way up
to your ceilings.
What do you think you should do ......
Raise the ceilings, or pump out the crap??


But Let us keep things in perspective::
