humor: Think Thin Thursday ~ The Lighter Side of "Resistance" Training
- 06/18/18 02:21 PM
John Pinette 1964 - 2014
His resume' is long and storied from Broadway, movies, television and of course as a stand-up comedian. Usually making lite of his stature and weight in his routines and also his love of food, his passing was a shock at the young age of fifty.
John died of natural causes as a result of a pulmonary embolism. He was trying to be more healthy and had lost over a hundred pounds from what I've read. A couple of minor surgeries may have exacerbated his weakened condition and he let his Twitter followers know he was going to take a break. His … (5 comments)

humor: An Adele Song Specifically for Real Estate, a Parody I'm Told
- 05/14/16 11:13 PM
Usually when I search for songs with anything real estate related the result is a country music type. Today I find this remake of Adele's "Hello" and it covers a lot of our everyday issues we resolve all the time. The format is unique and lyrics very well done. It is a wee bit longer than I like to post from YouTube but well worth the entire listen at least once. Adele fans can be assured it will entertain you.
I recommend those of you holding open houses today to upload this on a loop in you iPod or iPhone. I wonder how many … (8 comments)

humor: As a Compliment to World Sauntering Day, Here is an OLD, But Effective, Idea
- 06/18/15 11:35 PM
Because it's Friday, and typically Fun Friday as we head into the weekend, another AR member had posted about it being World Sauntering Day. This brought back memories of an earlier, more complicated time in my life, albeit of which there was less scrutiny, regulation, legislation and manipulation. It is with the hope that this video brings fun flashbacks into your life. Or, if you're a novice and unfamiliar with this comedy sketch from one of my favorite troupes, Monty Python, my wish is that you can enjoy their humor too. Oh, and thanks to Gita Bantwal for providing the direction to enjoy the memory and … (14 comments)

humor: Friday Fun - It's a Jungle Out There, Ray Stevens Can Get You Through
- 06/27/13 11:53 PM
In need of a little comic relief? You've come to the right place. Since the late 50's to the present this 2 time Grammy winning artist has covered the Country and Pop World with innumerous awards. He's been at it since his middle teens. Nominated for 11 Grammy's so far, his talent crosses a broad range of entertainment and musical abilities. Probably most remembered for his #1 hit, "The Streak", his comical songs let you enjoy the lighter side of life. My early introduction to this singing humorist began with "Ahab the Arab", you'll easily find his talent sprawled across YouTube.

humor: Super Intense Workouts like Insanity and P90X Don't Even Come Close...
- 06/20/13 10:34 PM
It's Friday Fun Time Again: The term interval training has been in use for workouts since the days of Charles Atlas. His theory was based on a system of exercise called "Dynamic Tension" which uses muscle against muscle for resistance. Interval Training is a concept where repeated bursts of maximum effort force the body to remain at a heightened endurance level for periods of time and the cumulative effect attains visible results more efficiently and effectively. The new training techniques demand lengthened anaerobic activity with minimal rest between the intervals and expending greater energy in higher doses. These are the super … (4 comments)

humor: Phriday Photo Phun - Always Pay Close Attention to Your Whereabouts!
- 03/29/13 03:08 AM
About two or three years ago I went out to pick up a couple of sandwiches for lunch. As I left the restaurant with keys in hand I walked across the parking lot to my spot and tried to open the car. The darn thing wouldn't unlock. I fumbled around a few more times and low and behold I see my car in the next space. What are the odds of an identical color, make and model being in an almost identical place, maybe 10,000 to one. Anyway, I sheepishly proceeded to my vehicle and escaped without undue embarassment. That was … (8 comments)

humor: Friday Fun - With Friends Like This, Who Needs Enemies? A Short Video
- 03/15/13 12:46 AM
There are times when guilt is the overiding factor in our behavior. I can understand that from an anthropological perspective but this display is astounding to me. There is definitely a connection between man and beast or more correctly master and dog. You'll get a kick out of this I'm sure and even more so if you're an animal lover. This video is short, sweet and to the point!

These great questions and answers are from the days when the Hollywood Squares game show responses were spontaneous and unscripted. Host, Peter Marshall asked the questions, of course.
Q. Paul, what is a good reason for pounding meat?
A. Paul Lynde: Loneliness! (The audience laughed so long and so hard it took up almost 15 minutes of the show!)
Q. Do female frogs croak?
A. Paul Lynde: If you hold their little heads under water long enough.
Q. If you're going to make a parachute jump, at least how high should you be

humor: Thanksgiving Day - Some Humor and How it Came to Be a Holiday
- 11/17/12 02:00 PM
Thanksgiving is always the time to get together with family, old friends and new ones alike to enjoy and give thanks that we've survived another year. It should always be a time when bygones are bygones and dutifilly left outside the door forever. Have you ever contemplated how short our time is here on Mother Earth? In a snap of our fingers a decade rolls by and we sit wondering how the heck that happens. Don't let it overcome you, the one thing we never have enough of is time.
Don't waste time with things which have no consequence. … (8 comments)

humor: Friday Funny - Thinking Outside of the Box
- 10/26/12 06:55 AM
The minister was preoccupied with thoughts of how he was going to ask the congregation to come up with more money than they were expecting for repairs to the church building. Therefore, he was annoyed to find that the regular organist was sick and a substitute had been brought in at the last minute. The substitute wanted to know what to play. "Here's a copy of the service," he said impatiently. "But, you'll have to think of something to play after I make the announcement about the finances." During the service, the minister paused and said, "Brothers and Sisters, we are … (9 comments)

humor: Funny (but Factual) Friday - Doctors vs. Gun Owners
- 05/07/10 03:19 AM
Doctors vs. Gun Owners
(A) There are 700,000 physicians in the U.S.
(B) 120,000 accidental deaths are caused by Physicians each year.
(C) Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171.
Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health Human Services.
Now Consider This:
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000.
(Yes, that's 80 million)
(B) The number of accidental deaths from firearms in the U.S. is 1,500 annually.
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .000188.
Statistics courtesy of Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI).
So, statistically speaking, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more likely to
cause accidental deaths and are considerably more dangerous … (16 comments)

humor: Things to Think about on Thursday!
- 05/06/10 12:43 PM
Why? Why? Why?
Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are almost dead?
Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they already know there is not enough money?
Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but they'll have to check when you say the paint's wet?
Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?
Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?
Why did Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'lisp'?

humor: Can We All Just Chip In And Get CHASE Some New Fax Machines!
- 03/04/10 01:16 PM
Really, I can't figure out if they need new machines or they're just getting too many short sale packages that the newer machines just can't handle. Then there's the emailed information that seems to digitize itself right out of their systems. Boy, I couldn't live like that. Let's just tackle one problem at a time. We know the banks are in deep trouble because if it wasn't for our helpful government they'd be out of existence right now. They can't go back to Big Brother for more help so the next agenda is to pile on the fees and charges to … (6 comments)

FOCUS on SCHOOLWORK
A father believed his son was spending way too much time playing computer and
video games. In an effort to motivate the boy and focus his attention more on
his schoolwork, the father said to his son, "When Abe Lincoln was a boy your age
you could find him studying books by the light of the flames in a fireplace." The
son quickly pointed out, "When Lincoln was your age, he was the President of the
United States."
