Couch and Jokes

Friday, September 01, 2006

Hey kids, we had the home inspection today and there are no major problems. The oil furnace doesn’t work but we planned on pulling it out anyway to put in a heat pump (Heat/AC). It’s possible we could get a credit from the seller to help pay for it. Here are a couple of pictures of the couch we bought. It’s fun. The weather wasn’t as bad as the weather channel / news made it sound. It rained/sprinkled nonstop but wasn’t really a problem. The lake is quite a bit higher. God Bless, M

and a joke...

There was a religious lady that had to do a lot of traveling for her business, so she did a lot of flying. Flying made her very, very nervous,so she always took her Bible along with her to read as it helped relax heron the long flights.One time, she was sitting next to a man. When he saw her pull out her Bible, he gave a little chuckle and smirk and went back to what he was doing. After awhile, he turned to her and asked, "You don't really believe all that stuff in there do you?"The lady replied, "Of course I do. It is the Bible." He said, "Well, what about that guy that was swallowedby that whale?"She replied, "Oh, Jonah. Yes, I believe that, it is in the Bible."He asked, "Well, how do you suppose he survived all that time inside the whale?"The lady said, "Well, I don't really know. I guess whenI get to heaven, I will ask him.""What if he isn't in heaven?" the man asked sarcastically."Then you can ask him," replied the lady.
