"In the Russian army we have 2000 calories of food a day" said the Russian. "Well", said the Englishman, "In the British army we are given 4000 calories of food a day." "That's nothing", said the American, "in the US army we have 8000 calories of food a day". At this the Russian got very annoyed. "Nonsense", he said, "how could one man eat that much cabbage!!!." ______________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote!

Moses, 25, Council Bluffs, Iowa Iowa mom left 2-, 4-year-old in car in below freezing temperatures A Council Bluffs woman left her two children in a car unattended in the cold for about 45 minutes Tuesday, police said. Police were called just after 10:30 a.m. to a parking lot near 3271 Interstate 80 and 24th Street to check on two children, ages 2 and 4. The children had been located by a concerned citizen who then provided them shelter in her vehicle until police arrived, officers said. The investigation revealed the two children had been left unattended in the vehicle for approximately 45 minutes. The vehicle the children had been left in was not running, was unlocked and the window was partially down, police said. Police said the children were only wearing light clothing. The outside air temperature at the time of the incident was 5 degrees with a minus 14 to minus 15 degree wind chill. The mother of the children was located by police after she came out of the Boot Barn Store, police said. The mother, identified as Stephany C. Moses, 25, was arrested on two counts of child endangerment. The children were placed into protective custody, and the Department of Human Services was contacted. The children were not injured.

"Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. I stole some lumber." "How much lumber did you steal?" "I built my German Shepherd dog a nice new doghouse." "That's not so bad." "Father, I also built myself a 4-car garage." "Well, now, that's a little more serious." " There's more. I also built a 5 bedroom, 4 bath house." "That's much more serious. You'll have to make a novena." "Father, I'm not sure what a novena is, but if you've got the blueprints, I've got the lumber!" ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com Chill Your Jello Mold Place your Jello mold in fridge to chill before adding the Jello mixture.

___________________________________________________ Since another church member, Bonnie, had mentioned that she and her husband were struggling with a big decision on whether they should become missionaries, my friend offered to include them on the prayer list. So at the meeting, my friend announced in front of the whole congregation, "Let's all pray that Bonnie and Lee can make a decision about the missionary position." ___________________________________________________ Re graduating from highschool: Interesting article in the NY Times about the government desperately trying to come up with a single formula for figuring out how many kids graduated and how many were left behind. Apparently each state fudges the figures differently and some don't have the skills to do even that. Should be simple enough: X kids were born, Y kids graduated, Z = X - Y and shows the number of kids left behind. Apparently that is not democratic enough, since then most states would not qualify for Federal handouts. Also, since some states hand out graduation diplomas for having signed up, regardless of attending or test results, the stats are a bit unrealistic. ___________________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
