Thank you for sharing the things about your foster children. I enjoyed reading it. I love humor. If I couldn't laugh at myself and others it would be a rather dull life. My children are all grown and on their own now but when they feel down who do they call MOM They know that by the time they hang up they will feel better. Do you all know how many face mussels (not sure on spelling) you use to smile and how many it takes to frown? I was reading an article on that the other day and it said you use more to frown. I don't remember the exact amount but I will look it up again and let you know. I have been in this group for sometime now and have never been sorry I joined. The post are very enjoyable and have taught me a lot of things. Thank you all for that. When I was so sick I looked forward to everyday being able to read everything here. You got me through a very rough time in my life. Well, enough of my rambling. Take care all, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL YOU MOTHER'S OUT THERE, Love you all, Ellie << If I couldn't laugh, I couldn't breath! It's so totally essential to my well being that I know its keeping me alive. I had foster kids who were troubled teens when I got them. Very disturbed children. One of the few things we were able to have in common, as a common ground was what we laughed at. And I have to tell you some of those jokes were not too appropriate, Helen Keller jokes, dead baby jokes, etc. Do you know those grown children will now call me long distance when they are in a funk and say, (mom, tell me a Helen Keller joke! LOL) Now I know that I should be deeply ashamed that I laughed with them for these jokes, but heck, I'm just not, cause it helped them, it still helps them, it's still funny!! I have bunny glasses, they have bunny nose and wiskers and eyebrows. It's one of my favorot outfits. I don't think seriousness is a fault, but like too much humor, its a matter of moderation. ( a balance I have net yet struck) ( I still have trouble not laughing at funerals and church) but it is my opinion that emotions are kinda on a color wheel, the contrasting emotion to grief is humor. It's the balancer. Just as anger contrasts depression. I've actually written a humorus book on Cancer. Hows that for sacriligious. It's called " Cancer Sucks, and other truisms about the big C " . I've shared parts of it with my cancer patients and they love it. I sincerely hope I haven't offended anyone here. Never my intention. I just feel passionate about humor, and thought I'd show my hand for the disecting. That which does not kill me, makes me bitter. LOL just a joke. love connie >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my current favorot share. gotta love it. The following is an excerpt from a children's book, Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants, by Dav Pilkey: The evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names..... Use the first letter of your first name to determine your NEW first name: a = stinky b = lumpy c = buttercup d = gidget e = crusty f = greasy g = fluffy h = cheeseball i = chim-chim j = poopsie k = flunky l = booger m = pinky n = zippy o = goober p = doofus q = slimy r = loopy s = snotty t = falafel u = dorkey v = squeezit w = oprah x = skipper y = dinky z = zsa-zsa Use the first letter of your last name to determine the first half of your NEW last name: a = diaper b = toilet c = giggle d = bubble e = girdle f = barf g = lizard h = waffle i = cootie j = monkey k = potty l = liver m = banana n = rhino o = burger p = hamster q = toad r = gizzard s = pizza t = gerbil u = chicken v = pickle w = chuckle x = tofu y = gorilla z = stinker Use the last letter of your last name to determine the second half of your NEW last name: a = head b = mouth c = face d = nose e = tush f = breath g = pants h = shorts i = lips j = honker k = butt l = brain m = tushie n = chunks o = hiney p = biscuits q = toes r = buns s = fanny t = sniffer u = sprinkles v = kisser w = squirt x = humperdinck y = brains z = juice Thus, for example, George Bush's new name is Fluffy Toiletshorts.
