After a basketball game, the coach found a cell phone on the gym floor. He picked it up and handed it to one of the referees, saying, "Here's your phone."
"What makes you think it's mine?" the ref
asked. "Easy," the coach replied. "It says you
missed 13 calls."
That’s all for today..

“A paraprosdokian /pærəprɒsˈdoʊkiən/ is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence, phrase, or larger discourse is surprising or unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to reframe or reinterpret the first part. It is frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect.”
Some people are like Slinkies ... not really good for anything, but you can't help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.
To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research.
The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on the list.
Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman.
I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.
Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars but check when you say the paint is wet?
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.
Some people hear voices. Some see invisible people. Others have no imagination whatsoever.
I drove up to the one stoplight in a nearby town today and saw the entire police force (2?) with lights flashing, I studied the scene. On one side of the street, men are throwing straps over a semi load of hay. Further down 3 men are rolling one huge bale of hay down the street. "Wow!" "I'm glad I quit drinking. Look at the tests they're giving now."

Something a little different for this post. This receipt came from a fellow we called “Bake Bean John.” Every time we would meet in church basements for anniversary meetings or whatever John brought his “famous” beans. (and are they good)…
Hope you enjoy the BEANS and have a good TOOT… LOL

Tar Hollow State Park. A Wandering Ohio Post
December 2014 in Ohio… The cloudiest in ten years.. Well, yesterday 12/29/2014 the sun was out so what a great time to do a little wandering..
“Tar Hollow State Forest is Ohio's third largest state forest, encompassing just over 16,000 acres where Ross, Hocking and Vinton counties meet. It is the closest backpacking destination to the Columbus area. Like many other state forests, a state park lies in the middle of it. Tar Hollow State Park is not as developed as some of Ohio's other state parks, but does offer camping, picnic shelters, a 15-acre lake for fishing and swimming and a general store. Often overlooked by vacationers in favor of the nearby popular Hocking Hills, Tar Hollow State Park and Forest are a real treat for those seeking a destination small in crowds and big on nature.” READ MORE
There was one camper in the whole park when I visited..
The showers and pit toilets are in different buildings and are clean…
An area I was interested in was non electric walk in tent sites. I’m thinking early spring camping and I might have the whole area to myself. ( I am a bit of a recluse)
This would be my spot. One can’t see the parking area and being at the top of the hill one does have cell phone Wi-Fi connectivity. ( If that’s important)..
Restroom facilities are a little more primitive.
Water is available. I stepped on the foot pedal and check out the flowing water in the above photo.
Several camping shelters can be reserved and used for camping. My favorite spot is the Brush Ridge Fire Tower.( photo below)
“The Logan Trail, named for the famous Chief Logan of the Mingo Indian Tribe, is laid out in a distorted figure eight pattern with its north and south loops meeting at the Brush Ridge Fire Tower, plus a short side trail to a backpack camp.”
Looking back at the fire tower:::
Love the fire tower:::
Going up…
and back down..
I did have a really good hold on the rails.. LOL
The “Buckeye Trail” and the North Country Trail intersect the fire tower.
I really don’t enjoy gray clouds and cold weather all that much, but give me a little sun and a little bit of warmth and I’m an “outside” kind of guy…
