May 07, 2001 - Msg 180: A "Clean" Joke:
Two brooms were hanging in the closet, and after a while they got to know each other so well, they decided to get married. One broom was, of course, the bride broom and the other the groom broom. The bride broom looked very beautiful in her white dress. The groom broom was handsome and suave in his tuxedo. The wedding was lovely. After the wedding at the wedding dinner, the bride broom leaned over and said to the groom broom, "I think I am going to have a little whisk broom!!!"
"IMPOSSIBLE!!", said the groom broom. "WE HAVEN'T EVEN SWEPT TOGETHER"

May 12, 2001 - Msg 318: What I would like as a mother is (and it isn't in a lot of people's budget) but to be sent to a tropical island, ocean front room, where I had room service, where I could call up in the middle of the night and say
"This is room 2405, would you send me up a chocolate nut sundae?" And when I'm on the beach sunning, I'd call up and say "This is room 2405, but I'm on the beach and I'd like an ice cold water with a little bit of lemon squeezed in it."
I'd walk in the edge of the water, I'd stay up half the night sitting on the balcony listening to the ocean. That's what I'd like, to be all by my lonesome at the beach with room service.
Hey Mr. Schwump.
Hello everyone.

I think that, while we can, we should let our Mom/Dad know what they mean to you "in between" Mothers/Fathers Day as well....we shouldn't take that opportunity for granted, for sooner than we know, it will be gone.....

I thought about you while I was there...Went to Capt. Tony's and all of the place Jimbo sings about...it was AWESOME!!! Course, livin in Ft. Lauderdale now, it is easy to take a jaunt to the Keys!

Man, I am SO glad I found you guys again... Now that I know where you are, I will check in at least once a day! And to celebrate findin you guys again, I am putting all my pairs of socks on sale...HALF PRICE! And these are the good ones...not too porous show your hairs won't pop through!

Hope I wasnt too pushy!
