ESSENTIAL ECONOMICS


ESSENTIAL ECONOMICS:
TRADITIONAL ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies and the economy grows. You retire on the income.

AMERICAN ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You sell one and force the other to produce the milk of four cows. You profess surprise when the cow drops dead. You put the blame on some nation with cows and naturally that nation will be a danger to mankind. You wage a war to save the world and grab the cows.
FRENCH ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You go on strike because you want three cows.
GERMAN ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You reengineer them so that they live for 100 years, eat once a month and milk themselves.
BRITISH ECONOMICS: You have two cows. They are both mad.
ITALIAN ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You don't know where they are. You break for lunch.
SWISS ECONOMICS: You have 5000 cows, none of which belong to you. You charge others for storing them.
JAPANESE ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You redesign them so that they are one-tenth the size of an Ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create cute cartoon cow images called Cowkimon and Market them worldwide.
RUSSIAN ECONOMICS: You have two cows. YOu count them and learn you have five cows. You count them again and learn you have 42 cows. You count them again and learn you have 17 cows. You give up counting and open another bottle of vodka.
INDIAN ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You worship them.
BANGLADESH ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You don't know the economy. You choose one of them as the Prime Minister of the country and the other as the Leader of the Opposition.
GRAND MANAN ECONOMICS: You have two cows. You sell them both for gas for your buggy. You hope that later, that person will be intoxicated enough to give them back to you for a bottlecap. You then chase your two cows down Cedar Street on your buggy until you run out of the gas you sold them for.

BAKED BEANS

BAKED BEAN TROUBLE: A man had a terrible passion for baked beans, but they always had a somewhat lively effect on him. After he met the woman of his dreams, he made the supreme sacrifice and gave them up; he couldn't imagine subjecting his new wife to his beastly emissions. On his birthday, his truck broke down, so he called his wife and told her he'd have to walk home. He walked past a cafe and the wonderful aroma of baked beans overwhelmed him. Since he was still a couple of miles from home, he figured he could indulge, and then walk off any ill effects. So he had three extra-large helpings of beans, and he "put-putted" all the way home. His wife met him at the door and seemed somewhat excited. She exclaimed, "Darling, I have the most wonderful surprise for you for dinner tonight!" She blindfolded him, and led hime to his chair at the head of the table, making him promise not to peek. At this point, he was beginning to feel another one coming on. Just as she was about to remove the blindfold, the telephone rang and she went to answer it. While she was gone, he seized the opportunity. He shifted his weight to one leg and let go. It was not only loud, but ripe as a rotton egg. He gasped and felt for his napkin and fanned the air about him. He had just started to feel better, when another urge came on. This one sounded like a diesel engine revving, and smelled worse. He tried flapping his arms, to clear the air. But another one snuck out, and the windows rattled, the dishes on the table shook, and a minute later, the flowers on the table were dead. When he heard his wife ending her conversation, he neatly laid his napkin on his lap and folded his hands on top of it. He was the picture of innocence when she walked in. Apologizing for taking so long, she asked if he had peeked at the dinner. He assured her he had not, so she removed the blindfold and yelled, "Surprise!!!!" To his shock and horror, there were twenlve dinner guests seated around the table for his surprise birthday party. What is the moral of this story you ask: Either don't get married or find a really good woman who could accept those beastly emissions. Perhaps one who has no sense of smell! And obviously she wasn't the woman of his dreams if he had to give up Saturday bean night.

BLOOMIN CRAZY

BLOOMIN CRAZY: My sincere apologies if I offended anyone in my last post. It was something that I had to let out. FORGIVE ME! Here is a little story of things neither I nor the VeggieTales have done: I've never plucked a rooster, (I wonder if it would be like pulling nose hair?) and I am not too good at ping pong (Forest Gump is though) and I have never thrown my mashed potatoes up against the wall( I leave that up to my kids) and I've never kissed a chipmunk (they are pretty cute) and I've never gotten head lice(ew) and I've never been to Deep Cove in the fall.( I really don't go there in any season) I've never licked a spark plug and I've never sniffed a stink bug and I've never painted daisies on a big red rubber ball and I've never bathed in yoguart and unlike Kirk I don't look good in leggings and I've never been to Deep Cove in the fall. Well maybe I have, I don't really remember anything past 5.654mins! I love you, you love me, we're a happy family. With a great big daisy painted ball and a kiss from me to a chipmunk. Won't you say you luv me too! May we forever live without ever sniffing a stink bug and may we take turns licking spark plugs and I may try to go to Deep Cove in the fall. Yeah, everyone sing along. The person writing this may have her head loaded with a foreign substance which is leaking from her nose and is deteriorating brain function. Pray for her! LOL P.s . Like I said Bloomin Crazy--hopefully temporary!

Big Boots and Tadpoles

Big Boots and Tadpoles: You Gotta Love Little Boys ! I really wasn't sure what I was going to do my next post on until I just looked outside. Isaiah and his friend Hunter are out collecting tadpoles and are moving them from one place to another. So I just look out the door while I am typing and they both are in boots that are 3x too big for them walking across the driveway carrying buckets to collect more tadpoles. It was the cutest thing that I have seen in awhile. I guess once your kids are past the baby/toddler stage those times where everything they do is cute is far and few between but, it is times like this when you realize how precious and innocent they still are. It is amazing how fast they are growing up and there is nothing I can do about it except try to raise them the best to my ability and pray continually that they will grow up to be God loving, descent men! I am afraid that I don't pray enough for them but I guess I just have to believe that God hears the prayers that I have in my heart for them. I know God has great plans for my boys but I just pray that I don't screw them up somehow to hinder those plans! Raising children is a huge resposibility but I am glad that I have realized that I don't have to do it on my own. There is someone out there that has even bigger hopes, brighter dreams and loves them more than I can comprehend and will protect them even when I can not! I am definately far from a perfect parent, not even close perhaps but I can at least try to show them Gods love through me. Which I am still working at big time because sometimes you just don't feel much like lovin the little buggers. I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him. 1Samuel 1:27

SOMEWHERE OUT THERE

SOMEWHERE OUT THERE------There were a few that had the priveledge of seeing Raine Maida live in concert! Woh, how could ya beat it. Welll I could think of a few other things but anyway it was an awesome concert. Last time I talked to you You were lonely and out of place! We had a really great weekend and I would like to officially thank my hubby for making it happen. Shmanks! Anyway, moving on; I am really pumped for the Newsboys concert this weekend. It will be even more amazing than Out Lady Peace because you know the people at Newsboys will be worshipping God and not Raine Maida and not somking weed in the seats in front of you. It is funny how different I look at things now. Raine Maida came over to the side we were sitting on and asked people on stage with him, you should have seen the maniacs jumping out of their seats. They were absolutely freaking out-come on now people! It just made me think if everyone had that energy and seeked out God in that way imagine what this world could be! Not saying Raine isn't worth getting a hold of but I look at him differently now than I would of before I was a chrisitan. God is so much more worthy of that energy! None the less it was an awesome concert. Oh yeah and Happy Mother's Day to me!!!! Brightly Blooming!!!

WHEN THE MUSIC FADES

When The Music Fades Well for me yesterday and today have been very soggy days. Not just because it is raining or because it is foggy, I am really not sure why actually. I don't know if anyone else has felt this way the past couple of days but surely tomorrow can only be brighter ! I think I am realizing I am very dependant on others for hapiness which is not good. God is supposed to be my happiness! It isn't that I can't be happy on my own but, that I need people around a lot. I think it has been since Alabama that I realize that having people around is when I am at my happiest. Does that mean I am a needy, selfish person; maybe I am. Or possibly I am just a wonderful, fun-loving people person. I think I should probably focus on the latter. Anywho, I know this has been a not so upbeat post but, if you are going to read you have to take the good posts with the bad. Luv u guys!!!!! Drooping!

MY ODE TO CASSIDY

MY ODE TO CASSIDY
Cassidy, Cassidy my dear Cassidy: Cassidy loves dogs, Cassidy loves to sing, Cassidy loves to write about silly things. Cassidy used to like Barney if you can imagine that, she loves Johnny Depp especially in a hat! Cassidy loves God with all of her heart and especially loves me to which she could not part!!!! Thank you, thank you. If anyone would like to request an ode you can contact me through my blog at: Please do an ode for me, pretty, pretty please. Some of you may have to do more begging than others in order to get me to do one for you! I think the demand may be overwhelming. Also, some of you really give me nothing to say, you leave me absolutely speechless. I am considering Scotts suggestion for an ode to his truck but I could use some more begging and pleading. I think this whole blogging thing may be growing on me. Blooming better today!LLOL

Bloom Where You Are Planted

Bloom Where You Are Planted ...........I guess I have to make a new post because I had a couple comments. Oh yay, I am soooo excited, can ya tell. We started our "youth leader" bible study last night. Even though we never really talked anything about the bible and we all weren't youth leaders. I think we started off a little shaky but I have faith that it will turn into a wonderful study of the bible. It is good to hang out and do absolutely nothing and listen to Scott do Seinfield comedy hour though. I really apologize for my lack of imaginative posting, I really have got nothin! Someone should give me a daily topic to talk about, or else I will have to make random comments. The 1997 Jack Nicholson film "As Good As It Gets", is known in China as "Mr. Cat Poop." I bet nobody new that. What is with chopsticks? ............ I am ranking this the lamest post ever! I think I am having anxiety over this posting thing. HELP ....Failing To Bloom!

I HAVE NO IDEA!

OK, first of all, I was commenting on Cassidy's blog and for some reason it made me create my own blog. I am apologizing for my lack of creativity in this field. This would be my first blog and I have no idea what I am doing. I just basically did this so I could comment on Cassidy's blog. I would like however, to say a huge Shmanks to my new fam. I love all of you guys and I have been having an awesome time! You guys have opened a whole new love of life for me that I think I may have been missing before. I am so thankful that I went to Bama. God works in amazing ways! I know that was really smushy but I had to get it out. sniff sniff. That just reminded me of Kirks sniff song. Anyway, this is my 1st and possibly could be my only if I have no one comment. I know I have at least a couple of my new friends that had better comment or else!!!!!!!! pps Bloom where you are planted and people will feed you?
