Yee Ha!!!At The Top: More Chaos?? - Well, I don't know what it is about this time of year, but it's not too conducive to smooth sailing. This time last year me dad passed away, sending me down to Texas to see him before he breathed his last and went to meet The Creator. Year before that, I transferred across town to a higher volume store requiring more time dedicated to work. This year? Well, I am once again back at that store! Needless to say, there was quite a bit of shuffling around in between times.

So, where do we go from here? Forward, as always! A spanking new fresh as feathers update **should** be possible this coming Monday. Soon to follow is another New But Old original piece of Muzic (yes, this one IS finished) and some fresh New Icon "Taffy" from Isabelle Laffy.

So, there you have it. All that said, let's round off the week with a small round of Bananas...Here we go!

Double Trouble

The other day my neighbor, who is blonde, came running up to me in the driveway just jumping for joy! I didn't know why she was jumping for joy. I thought, what the heck, and I starting jumping up and down along with her.

She said, "I have some really great news!" I said, "Great. Tell me why you're so happy." She stopped jumping and, breathing heavily from all the jumping up and down, told me that she was pregnant!

I knew that she had been trying for a while so I told her, "That's great! I couldn't be happier for you!" Then she said, "There's more."

I asked, What do you mean 'more? She said, "Well, we are not having just one baby. We are going to have twins!" Amazed at how she could know so soon after getting pregnant, I asked her how she knew.

She said..."That was the easy part. I went to Wal-Mart and they actually had a home pregnancy kit in a twin-pack. Both tests came out positive!"

You Might Be A Redneck If...#31

You've ever used a weed eater indoors.

Your momma tore her best dress coon hunting.

You have a rag for a gas cap (on a car that does run).

You look upon a family reunion as a chance to meet Ms. Right.

You have to go outside to get something out of the fridge.

Your richest relative buys a new house and you have to help take the wheels off it.

In an effort to watch your cholesterol, you eat Spam Lite.

Your idea of a seven course meal is a bucket of KFC and a six pack.

 

Looky!

Monkie Business


At The Top: Are We There yet? - Good grief, Charlie Brown! One thingGood grief leads to another...One week turns into another...Next week, will it be Summer??!! At the rate things are going, me thinks we'll be singing Auld lang sine before we know it. Whichever the way the wind blows, I'll slowly but surely be picking up steam and getting this Monkie Hut back into the swing of things. Until we resume, slip on down to the Monkie Business and get a good giggle from the video I found on YouTube.

 

MONKIE BUSINESS

Odds and Ends

Breathe Already! - Since I finally broke down and bought an iPod touch, I've been making good use of its built-in YouTube feature by checking out all of the latest and greatest videos offered up on the web. I am certain you will find the following vid worth a bid amongst the best you've laid your eyes on. Have a peek!

On The Net | Monkie Business | Bananas


What a Day!!!!At The Top: Mumble Mumble - Hmmm...Monday the 13th. What a kick. So which is worse? The big Thirteen landing on a Friday, or the first day of the work week? Thought Monday's were bad enough. Good grief! Oh well. It's not **that** bad. =) You could always have a bad case of the runs on top of inflamed hemorrhoids. Did I say that out loud???

Soooo! Things have been busy around here with all the hustle and bustle of buying a home. Should be able to seal the deal this week. After this, there should be more time for some New Muzic and Brand New GUI goodies to eat. Until then, let's have a look at the latest in Software Updates On The Net, Monkie Business, and Bananas. Off we go, into the wild blue yonder, climbing high into the sun...

UPDATE - Well, I guess Monday the 13th was even worse than I suspected as this isn't even Monday the 13th! Perhaps I should look at a calendar more often? Oh well. The place is the same but the dates have been changed. =)

 

ON THE NET

The Latest In Updates - Over the last week or so, a couple of great Mac software sites have announced the latest goings on let looses from their grab bag of goodies. Here's what was heard:

MONKIE BUSINESS

Odds and Ends

Phased Out In The Outhouse - Cut outs of a moon and a star were used in colonial times on outhouse doors to designate the gender of the intended user. Originally, the moon cut-out was for women and the star was for the men. But men's outhouses were usually such a mess that men preferred using the women's outhouses. So, eventually the use of stars were phased out.

Elevated Intoxication - When the first escalator, or "inclined elevator," was installed in the department store Harrod's in London (near the turn of the century), brandy was served to passengers who felt faint.

Fame And The Fortunate - Actress Sandra Bullock remarked in an interview, "Fame means when your computer modem is broken, the repair guy comes out to your house a little faster."

 

The Skinny On Fat - Even overweight cats instinctively know the cardinal rule: when fat, arrange yourself in slim poses.

- John Weitz

All Too Sad - It's easier to beat a child than it is to raise it.

- from Seven

Parting Shot - I'm sixty years of age. That's 16 Celsius.

- George Carlin

Pull Buddy, Pull!

An out-of-towner drove his car into a ditch in a desolated area. Luckily, a local farmer came to help with his big strong horse, named Buddy. He hitched Buddy up to the car and yelled, "Pull, Nellie, pull!" Buddy didn't move.

Then the farmer hollered, "Pull, Buster, pull!" Buddy didn't respond.

Once more the farmer commanded, "Pull, Coco, pull!" Nothing.

Then the farmer nonchalantly said, "Pull, Buddy, pull!" And the horse easily dragged the car out of the ditch.

The motorist was most appreciative and very curious. He asked the farmer why he called his horse by the wrong name three times.

The farmer said, "Oh, Buddy is blind and if he thought he was the only one pulling, he wouldn't even try."

Zoomin'

Two crows were sitting on a fence amazed at how fast a jet with smoke pouring out the back was going.

First crow: Man, look how fast that guy is going.

Second crow: You'd fly that fast too if your tail was on fire!

Dummy Mummy

Q: Why did the mummy go on vacation?

A: He needed to unwind!

Flight Blonde

A blonde went to a flight school, insisting she wanted to learn to fly that day. As all the planes were currently in use, the owner agreed to instruct her on how to pilot the helicopter solo by radio.

He took her out, showed her how to start it, and gave her the basics and sent her on her way.

After she climbed 1000 feet, she radioed in. "I'm doing great! I love it! The view is so beautiful, and I'm starting to get the hang of this."

After 2000 feet, she radioed again, saying how easy it was becoming to fly. The instructor watched her climb over 3000 feet, and was beginning to worry that she hadn't radioed in.

A few minutes later, he watched in horror as she crashed about half a mile away. He ran over and pulled her from the wreckage.

When he asked what happened, she said, "I don't know! Everything was going fine, but as I got higher, I was starting to get cold. I can't remember anything after I turned off the big fan."
