Bravo to The Marketing Dept.


On Monday I received from Moores Clothing an envelope.
An ad I said, but I opened it anyway. Imagine my surprise when I found a fifty dollar gift certificate. A catch I says, a call I made

To my surprise there are no minimum purchases, not a buy one get one free, a gift pure & simple.

I believe it is part of a rewards program I enrolled in several years ago. I guess I must have spent five hundred dollars, an amount I would have spent anyway and this was their way of saying thanks (a 10% pay back)

Moores is a great place to shop the selection is full and their staff more then helpful,

There is I should mention one qualification, I have to use the certificate before May 31st 2010.
Kudos to Moores

An October Groan


A guy from Czechoslovakia was visiting his cousin the lawyer in California, and they went for a hike in Yellowstone Park.

While they were hiking they were attacked by two bears, one male and one female. The male bear dismembered and ate the Czechoslovakian guy, but the lawyer managed to escape.

He ran straight to the nearest Rangers station, and told them what had happened, and they sent out a group of Rangers to see what was going on.

Sure enough, the Rangers arrived at the place that the lawyer mentioned, and there were the female and the male bears. So one of the Rangers took his rifle and shot the female.

So the other Rangers asked, "Why did you shoot the female? He said that the male ate his friend."

To which the Ranger replies, "Would you believe a lawyer if he told you that the Czech is in the male?"

Poor Leafs


Justice in TORONTO ONTARIO (AP) - A seven-year old boy was at the center of a Toronto courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulation requiring that family unity be maintained to the highest degree possible.
The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried and said that they also beat him.

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.
After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted the young boys' wishes and granted temporary custody of him to the Toronto Maple Leaf Hockey Team, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone. The boy is said to be very happy with his new custodians.

Snowy Rubber


Today in an absolute stroke of brilliance I had my snow tires, I guess that’s winter tires (as they are not made out of snow) installed. I had to make the appointment about 1 week in advance at a time of the choosing of Vitro Plus, you remember them, that where I bought the tires last year.
As has become my practice I was thirty minutes early for my rendez- vous but such I am. There was no coffee ready so I had to cool my heals for a bit, but by 1:05 I was “winterized” and my Honda is ready for the storms.
So to you all have a happy driving season/

Herrrrrrrs not Johnny


Hi
Have you seen Jay Leno in his 10 PM slot, it’s terrible. His joke bits are too long not to mention boring and with little content but not funny. His guests are for the most part the same as they were but the absence of the desk is confusing, I like the desk on a talk show no….I demand the desk on a talk show, that’s why David Letterman (insert your thoughts here) will remain the talk show king.
But back to Jay have you seen his hair ??? I’m convince the man doesn’t have a mirror, it’s way out of whack, for the love of Might give the man an extra 24$ a month so he can get a decent haircut.
Oh and BTW Jaywalking is still pretty entertaining.
