The Beatles’ “Love Me Do” rises up the charts: Blogging the Beatles, 50 years later.:

 "The first time the Beatles recorded the song, it hadn’t gone so well. While its fresh sound caused the ears of the Parlophone Records crew to perk up, it would take something more to convince producer George Martin. As MacDonald tells it, after Martin picked apart everything that had been wrong with their performance, he asked them if there was anything they didn’t like. “Well, for a start,” George Harrison said, “I don’t like your tie.” The Beatles persisted in comedy mode for the next 20 minutes, leaving the Parlophone team “literally crying with laughter, a factor which, more than anything else, seems to have induced Martin to sign the group.”"

Jesus Christ Files Lawsuit Against GOP For Slander - Free Wood Post

Jesus Christ Files Lawsuit Against GOP For Slander - Free Wood Post:

 "When asked about the lawsuit, House Speaker John Boehner made the following remarks:

“Mr. Christ is entitled to his opinion, however the GOP believes that the underlying message in the Bible is that giving tax cuts to the wealthy is the true path to happiness.

I don’t know where Mr. Christ thinks the Bible says to help the poor and the sick, but that sounds awfully socialistic to me, and we are not a socialist country.”"

God is pro-union - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:

 "In the Biblical story, God worked with Moses to rescue the Jews from the unjust economic system of slavery. Once their freedom was secured, they were told to celebrate a day of rest each week. No one was excluded. It was a way of giving them time to recharge and keep their souls intact.

In America, we've long lost that part of the deal. We've fallen into the economic injustice of working harder so those with money can have even more. That's why I think God would be pro-union."

Married 50 years - Priceless


{Via Billie C.} After being married for 50 years, I took a careful look at my wife one day and said, "Fifty years ago we had a cheap house, a junk car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10-inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep every night with a hot 23-year-old girl.” “Now ... We have an $800,000 home, a $65,000 car, a nice big bed and a large-screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 73-year-old woman. It seems to me that you're not holding up your side of the bargain." My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 23-year-old girl and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap house, driving a junk car, sleeping on a sofa bed and watching a 10-inch black and white TV. Aren't older women great? They really know how to solve an old guy's problems!

Did you know that in the human body there is a nerve that connects the eyeball to the anus? It's called the Anal Optic Nerve, and it is responsible for giving people a shitty outlook on life. If you don't believe it, pull a hair from your ass and see if it doesn't bring a tear to your eye!

The Black Bra (as told by a married woman)

The Black Bra (as told by a married woman)

I had lunch with 2 of my unmarried friends.
One is engaged, one is a mistress, and I have been married for 20+ years.

We were chatting about our relationships and decided to amaze our men by greeting them at the door wearing a black bra, stiletto heels and a mask over our eyes.

We agreed to meet in a few days to exchange notes.
Here's how it all went.

My engaged friend : The other night when my
boyfriend came over he found me with a black leather bodice, tall stilettos and a mask.
He saw me and said, 'You are the woman of my dreams..
I love you..' Then we made passionate love all night long.

The mistress :
Me too! The other night I met my lover at his office and I was wearing a raincoat, under it only the black bra, heels and mask over my eyes.. When I opened the raincoat he didn't say a word, but he started to tremble and we had wild sex all night.

Then I had to share my story : When my husband came home I was wearing the black bra, black stockings, stilettos and a mask over my eyes.
When he came in the door and saw me he said,
'What's for dinner, Batman?'

Daily Kos: An abortion walks into a bar and says to the bartender ...:

 "So the way to convince young Americans to join the Republican Party is to make abortion hilarious. Or at least be sarcastic about it. Your abortion-related humor will then get the young folks these days to realize that you are hip and with it and that they really want on board with that whole Gilead-patterened premise of social conservative religious rule, aka Jesus Sharia."

What I Wish I Had Said at the Occupy Wall Street Protest

What I Wish I Had Said at the Occupy Wall Street Protest:

 "“Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment. Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others. By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life.”"

New Medicare Program - Part G

 



 {thanks to Billy C.}


New Medicare Program - Part G......................


You're a sick senior citizen and the government says
there is no nursing home available for you... So what
do you do?

Plan G gives anyone 65 years or older a hand-gun and
4 bullets.... You are allowed to shoot four politicians...

Of course, this means you will be sent to prison where
you will get three meals a day, a roof over your head,
central heating, air conditioning and all the health care
you need!

Need new teeth? No problem....... Need glasses? That's
great.... Need a new hip, knees, kidney, lungs or heart?
They're all covered.

As a bonus, your kids can come to visit you as often as
they do now......

And who will be paying for all of this? It's the same gov-
ernment that just told you that you they cannot afford
for you to go into a home.

And you get rid of 4 useless politicians while you are at it.
and reduce the government lifetime pensions by 4.

Plus, because you are a prisoner, you don't have to pay
any income taxes anymore.
Is this a great country or what?

 "In Google's quest to capture the world's streets, the cameras fastened to their Street View cars have caught everything from motorcycle accidents and houses on fire, to couples having (most likely simulated) sex. And now it looks like they've captured the moment after one unlucky lady was told to hit the road."
