NO NURSING HOME FOR me!!!

  

 
No nursing home for us. We'll be checking into a Holiday Inn! With the average cost for a nursing home care costing £188.00 per day, there is a better way when we get old and too feeble. I've already checked on reservations at the Holiday Inn.

For a combined long-term stay discount and senior discount, it's £59.23 per night. Breakfast is included, and some have happy hours in the afternoon.

That leaves £128.77 a day for lunch and dinner in any restaurant we want, or room service, laundry, gratuities and special TV movies.

Plus, they provide a spa, swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge and washer-dryer, etc.

Most have free toothpaste and razors, and all have free shampoo and soap.
  £5 worth of tips a day and you'll have the entire staff scrambling to help you.

They treat you like a customer, not a patient.

There's a bus stop out front, and seniors ride free.

For a change of scenery, take the airport shuttle bus and eat at one of the nice restaurants there.

While you're at the airport, fly somewhere. Otherwise, the cash keeps building up.

It takes months to get into decent nursing homes. Holiday Inn will take your reservation today.

And you're not stuck in one place forever -you can move from Inn to Inn, or even from city to city.

Want to see Scotland ? They have Holiday Inn there too.

TV broken? Light bulbs need changing? Need a mattress replaced? No problem. They fix everything, and apologize for the inconvenience.

    The Inn has a night security person and daily room service. The maid checks to see if you are ok. If not, they'll call an ambulance. . .or the undertaker.

If you fall and break a hip, NHS will pay for the hip, and Holiday Inn will upgrade you to a suite for the rest of your life.

And no worries about visits from family. They will always be glad to find you, and probably check in for a few days mini-vacation.

     The grand-kids can use the pool.

What more could I ask for?

So, when I reach that golden age, I'll face it with a grin.

Things Got Ya Down? Well Then, Consider These . . ..

In a hospital's Intensive Care Unit, patients always died in the same bed, on Sunday morning, at about 11:00 am, regardless of their medical condition. This puzzled the doctors and some even thought it had something to do with the super natural. No one could solve the mystery as to why the deaths occurred around 11:00 AM Sunday, so a worldwide team of experts was assembled to investigate the cause of the incidents. The next Sunday morning, a few minutes before 11:00 AM all of the doctors and nurses nervously waited outside the ward to see for themselves what the terrible phenomenon was all about. Some were holding wooden crosses, prayer books, and other holy objects to ward off the evil spirits. Just when the clock struck 11:00, Pookie Johnson , the part-time Sunday sweeper, entered the ward and unplugged the life support system so he could use the vacuum cleaner.

Still Having a Bad Day?

The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the Exxon Valdez Oil spill in Alaska was $80,000.00. At a special ceremony, two of the most expensively saved animals were being released back into the wild amid cheers and applause from onlookers. A minute later, in full view, a killer whale ate them both.

Still think you are having a Bad Day?

A woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen shaking frantically, almost in a dancing frenzy, with some kind of wire running from his waist towards the electric kettle. Intending to jolt him away from the deadly current, she whacked him with a handy plank of wood, breaking his arm in two places. Up to that moment, he had been happily listening to his Walkman.

Are Ya OK Now? - No?

Two animal rights defenders were protesting the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn , Germany . Suddenly, all two thousand pigs broke loose and escaped through a broken fence, stampeding madly. The two helpless protesters were trampled to death.

What? STILL having a Bad Day?

Iraqi terrorist Khay Rahnajet didn't pay enough postage on a letter bomb. It came back with 'Return to Sender' stamped on it. Forgetting it was the bomb; he opened it and was blown to bits. God is good!

There now, Feeling Better?

Management lesson:

Johnny wanted to have sex with a girl in his office, but she belonged to someone else... One day, Johnny got so frustrated that he went up to her and said, "I'll give you a $100 if you let me screw you." But the girl said NO. Johnny said, "I'll be fast. I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend down, and I'll be finished by the time you pick it up." She thought for a moment and said that she would have to consult her boyfriend... So she called her boyfriend and told him the story. Her boyfriend said, "Ask him for $200, pick up the money very fast, he won't even be able to get his pants down." So she agrees and accepts the proposal. Half an hour goes by, and the boyfriend is waiting for his girlfriend to call. Finally, after 45 minutes, the boyfriend calls and asks what happened. She responded, "The bastard used coins!" Management lesson: Always consider a business proposal in its entirety before agreeing to it and getting screwed!

Milk and eggs

This is a story which is perfectly logical to all males:

A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get 6."

A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk. The wife asks him, "Why did you buy 6 cartons of milk?"

He replied, "They had eggs."

(I'm sure you're going back to read this again!)

WHY MEN ARE NEVER DEPRESSED:

Men Are Just Happier People--
Your last name stays put.
The garage is all yours.
Wedding plans take care of themselves.
Chocolate is just another snack.
You can never be pregnant.
Car mechanics tell you the truth.
The world is your urinal.
You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.
Same work, more pay.
Wrinkles add character.
People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.
New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.
One mood all the time.
Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.
You know stuff about tanks and engines. A five-day holiday requires only one suitcase.
You can open all your own jars.
You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.
Your underwear is £9.50 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You never have strap problems in public.
You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.
Everything on your face stays its original colour.
The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.
You only have to shave your face and neck.
You can play with toys all your life.
One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one colour for all seasons.
You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.
You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife.
You have freedom of choice concerning growing a moustache. You can do Chris tmas shopping for 24 relatives on 24th December in 24 minutes.
No wonder men are happier.

I have been wondering about why Whites are racists, and no other race is......

Proud to be White 

Michael Richards, better known as Kramer  from TVs Seinfeld does make a good point. This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act.  He makes some very interesting points....
 
“There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc.. And then there are just Americans. 
 
You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.  You call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' 'Honkey,' 'Whitey,' 'Caveman'.... and that's OK..

But when I call you, Ni**er, Coon, Towel Head,  Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, Paki, Indian or Chink -you call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you... so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund. Martin Luther King Day.. Black History Month…  Cesar Chavez Day. You have Yom Hashoah.  You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You have the NAACP.  You have BET....
 
 
If we had WET (White Entertainment Television), we'd be racists.  If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists.
If we had White History Month, we'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to 'advance'OUR lives, we'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.  Wonder who pays for that??

A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant, but any color can be in the Miss America pageant.

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships... You know - we'd be racists.
There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US ..  Yet if there were 'White Colleges', that would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights.  If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it.  But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black or Indian drug dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.

I am proud.... But you call me a racist.
Why is it that only whites can be racists??
 

There is nothing improper about this e-mail..  Let's see which of you are proud enough to send it on.  I sadly don't think many will.  That's why we have LOST  most of OUR RIGHTS  in this country.  We won't stand up for ourselves!

BE PROUD TO BE WHITE!
It's not a crime YET... but getting very close!  

A new life in Australia

 

This news item comes from Portsmouth, England, there a woman was so depressed, had been unemployed for so long that she decided to end her life by throwing herself into the sea, but just before she could throw herself from the wharf, a well set up young man stopped her. "You have so much to live for," said the man. "I'm a sailor, and we are off to Australia tomorrow. I can stow you away on my ship. I'll take care of you, bring you food every day, and keep you happy, and who knows what chances will await you when our voyage ends?" With nothing to lose, combined with the fact that she had always wanted to go to Australia, the woman accepted. That night the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a small but comfortable compartment in the forward hold. From then on, every night he would bring her three sandwiches, a bottle of red wine, and make love to her until dawn. Two weeks later she was discovered by the captain during a routine inspection (captain’s rounds). "What are you doing here?" asked the captain. "I have an arrangement with one of the sailors," she replied. "He brings me food and I get a free trip to Australia." "I see," the captain says. Her conscience got the best of her and she added, "Plus, he's screwing me." "He certainly is," replied the captain. "This is the Isle of Wight Ferry."

Nice day to go flying ??

NOW THIS IS A REAL EDUCATION

Where did  “piss poor” come from ?
 
 

Us older people need to learn something new every day...
 
Just to keep the grey matter tuned up.

Where did "Piss Poor" come from?
Interesting History.
 
They used to use urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all pee in a pot.
 
And then once it was full it was taken and sold to the tannery...

if you had to do this to survive you were "Piss Poor".
But worse than that were the really poor folk who couldn't even afford to buy a pot...
 
They "didn't have a pot to piss in" and were the lowest of the low.

The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature
Isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be.
 
Here are some facts about the 1500's
 
Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May,

And they still smelled pretty good by June. However, since they were starting to smell,
Brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor.
  
Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when getting married.
 
Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water.
 
The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean water,
 
Then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the children.
 
Last of all the babies.
 
By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it.
 
Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the Bath water!"
 
Houses had thatched roofs-thick straw-piled high, with no wood underneath.

It was the only place for animals to get warm, so all the cats and other small animals
(mice, bugs) lived in the roof.

When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and fall off the roof.
Hence the saying, "It's raining cats and dogs."
There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house.
 
This posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings
 
Could mess up your nice clean bed.
 
Hence, a bed with big posts and a sheet hung over the top afforded some protection.
 
That's how canopy beds came into existence.
 
The floor was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt.

Hence the saying, "Dirt poor." The wealthy had slate floors that would get slippery
In the winter when wet, so they spread thresh (straw) on the floor to help keep their footing.

As the winter wore on, they added more thresh until, when you opened the door,
It would all start slipping outside. A piece of wood was placed in the entrance-way.
Hence: a thresh hold.
 
(Getting quite an education, aren't  you?)
 
In those old days, they cooked in the kitchen with a big kettle that always hung over the fire.

Every day they lit the fire and added things to the pot. They ate mostly vegetables
And did not get much meat.  They would eat the stew for dinner, leaving leftovers
In the pot to get cold overnight and then start over the next day.
 
Sometimes stew had food in it that had been there for quite a while.
 
Hence the rhyme:

“Peas porridge hot, peas porridge cold, peas porridge in the pot nine days old”.
Sometimes they could obtain pork, which made them feel quite special.
 
When visitors came over, they would hang up their bacon to show off.
 
It was a sign of wealth that a man could, "bring home the bacon."
 
They would cut off a little to share with guests
 
And would all sit around and chew the fat.
 
Those with money had plates made of pewter.
 
Food with high acid content caused some of the lead to leach onto the food, causing lead poisoning death.

This happened most often with tomatoes,
so for the next 400 years or so, tomatoes were considered poisonous.
 
Bread was divided according to status.
 
Workers got the burnt bottom of the loaf, the family got the middle,

and guests got the top, or the upper crust.
 
Lead cups were used to drink ale or whisky.
The combination would sometimes knock the imbibers out for a couple of days.
Someone walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for burial.
They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days and the family would gather around
and eat and drink and wait and see if they would wake up.
 
Hence the custom; “of holding a wake”.
 
England is old and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people.
 
So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a bone-house, and reuse the grave..
 
When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive.
 
So they would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through the ground and tie it to a bell.

Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the graveyard shift) to listen for the bell;  thus, someone could be,
“saved by the bell” or was "considered a dead ringer”.
 
And that's the truth.

Now, whoever said History was boring!!!
So get out there and educate someone! ~~~

Share these facts with a friend.
Inside every older person is a younger person wondering,
 
'What the heck happened?'
 
We'll be friends until we are old and senile.

Then we'll be new friends.
  
Smile, it gives your face something to do!

For those that like drink a few BUDS.

These wouldn't make the commercial break slot on the telly...........

Proud to be a Yorkshire Person..........

A friend sent me this, and I'd thought if I share it with you it will make you smile on this Monday morning like it did me..

After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, Lancashire (UK) scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 100 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago.
Not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, a Cumbrian archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story published in the Windermere Times : "Cumbrian archaeologists, finding traces of 130-year-old copper wire, have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 30 years earlier than Lancashire ".

One week later, the Yorkshire Post reported the following: "After digging as deep as 30 feet in his backyard in Pickering , North Yorkshire , Amos Thwaite, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely sod all. Amos has therefore concluded that 150 years ago, Yorkshire had already gone wireless."

It makes you bloody proud to be from Yorkshire

Life is short, make every second count

This will bring back a few memories, greasy overalls & dirty hands, blisters. Have spent this past week getting the Ferret ready for painting.

BIRTHDAY GREETINGS

Many Happy returns of the day tomorrow to Patrick Howlett, hoping you have a good one and many more to come,

 With all best wishes,

The Best Diet Yet

A woman asks her husband at breakfast time, "Would you like some bacon and eggs, a slice of toast, and maybe some grapefruit juice and coffee?"

He declines. "Thanks for asking, but I'm not hungry right now. It's this Viagra," he says. "It's really taken the edge off my appetite."

At lunchtime, she asked him if he would like something. "How about a bowl of soup, homemade muffins or a cheese sandwich?"

He declines. "The Viagra," he says, "Its really spoiled my need for food."

Come dinnertime, she asks if he wants anything to eat. "Would you like a juicy rib eye steak and some scrumptious apple pie? Or maybe a
Rotisserie chicken or tasty stir fry?"

He declines again. "No," he says, "it's got to be the Viagra. I'm still not hungry."

"Well," she says, "Would you mind getting off me? I'm bloody starving."

The Aborigine Tracker

An Australian tour guide was showing a group of American tourists the Top End on their way to Kakadu.
He was describing the abilities of the Australian aborigine to track man or beast over land, through the air, or beneath the
sea.
The Americans were incredulous.
Then, later in the day, the tour rounded a bend on the highway and discovered an Aborigine lying in the middle of the road.
He had one ear pressed to the white line whilst his left leg was held high in the air.
The tour stopped and the guide and the tourists gathered around the prostrate Aborigine.
"Jacky," said the tour guide, "what are you tracking and what are you listening for?"
The aborigine replied, "Down the road about 25 miles is a 1971 Chrysler Valiant. It's red. The left front tyre is bald. The front end is out of whack and it has dents in every panel.
There are 9 black fellas in the back, all drinking warm beer.
The American tourists moved forward, astounded by this precise and detailed knowledge.
"Wow, man! How do you know all that?" asked one American.
The Aborigine replied, "I fell out of the bloody thing about 15 minutes ago!"

Subject: A man was walking home ...

 

A man was walking home alone late one foggy night,

When behind him he hears:

BUMP...


BUMP...


BUMP...


Walking faster, he looks back and through the fog he makes out the image of an upright coffin banging its way down the middle of the street toward him.

BUMP...


BUMP...


BUMP...


Terrified, the man begins to run toward his home, the coffin bouncing quickly behind him


FASTER...


FASTER...




BUMP...




BUMP. ..



BUMP...


He runs up to his door, fumbles with his keys, opens the door, rushes in, slams and locks the door behind him.




However, the coffin crashes through his door, with the lid of the coffin clapping


Clappity-BUMP...



Clappity-BUMP...


Clappity-BUMP...





On his heels, the terrified man runs.



Rushing upstairs to the bathroom, the man locks himself in. His heart is pounding; his head is reeling; his breath is coming in sobbing gasps.



With a loud CRASH the coffin breaks down the door.






Bumping and clapping toward him.




The man screams and reaches for something, anything,
But all he can find is a bottle of cough syrup!


Desperate, he throws the cough syrup at it...


And,




(hopefully you're really ready for this!!!)









The coffin stops!

Whoops

A man wakes up in the hospital, bandaged from head to foot.

The doctor comes in and says, "Ah, I see you've regained consciousness.

Now, you probably won't remember, but you were in a pile-up on the

motorway. You're going to be okay, you'll walk again and everything, but...

"Something happened. I'm trying to break this gently, but the fact is,

your willy was chopped off in the wreck and we were unable to find it."

The man groans, but the doctor goes on, "You've got £9000 in insurance

compensation coming and we have the technology now to build you a new

willy that will work as well as your old one did - better in fact! But the

thing is, it doesn't come cheap. It's £1000 an inch."

The man perks up at this. "So," the doctor says, "It's for you to decide

how many inches you want. But it's something you'd better discuss with

your wife. I mean, if you had a five inch one before, and you decide to go

for a nine incher, she might be a bit put out. But if you had a nine inch one

before, and you decide only to invest in a five incher this time, she might

be disappointed. So it's important that she plays a role in helping you make

the decision."

The man agrees to talk with his wife.

The doctor comes back the next day. "So," says the doctor, "have you

spoken with your wife?"

"I have," says the man.

"And what is the decision?" asks the doctor.

"We're having granite worktops."
