anyone got any good jokes? Feeling a bit bitter today...
I could check out RHF, but I'm wondering if anyone here has any good
jokes to share. I just got robbed and I'm feeling rather bitchy, bitter, and plain ****ed off. I could use a little cheering up. Don't worry, the damage is minimal, but *emotionally*... I'm very very very ****ed off. This has happened to me before in this town. I wish we could move away but DH doesn't want to drive, so he needs to be close enough to use the bus. I don't know what's wrong with people these days. |

Last July, a man walked through our front door (which was open because of the heat) and grabbed my purse off the table and ran off with it. He ended up getting caught and went to jail, but I still don't have my $600.00 back! I think I know just how you feel... Okay, here's my favorite joke: Do you know why you shouldn't ever eat Jolly Green Giant Vegetables? Because he always stands over the carrots and peas.... (say it out loud) Hope you feel better, Cheers, Alexis |

This has one of the smallest crime rates in UK and I'm still feeling rough (and scared). Dh did say that if they cased the joint beforehand they must be stupid on what's worth stealing in our house (anyone that'll take our 8yr old computer...?), and it's not the loss that shook me up, but as you said it's the emotions. hugs Debbie |

I was upstairs sleeping. DH chased the perp, but the guy had a bicycle waiting down the block and got away. DH had a good description, though, and he was caught just a few minutes later by the sheriff. We were lucky. No one got hurt, someone found my driver's license and brought it to my house the next morning, and, while losing $600.00 was harsh, it didn't break us. Vicky, What happened to you????? Alexis |

You've got a reason to be bitter and ****ed I would be too! Well hopefully you can get a chuckle or two and hopefully you haven't heard all of them befo When does a Cub Scout become a Boy Scout? After he eats his first brownie How do you get a nun pregnant? Dress her up like an altar boy What was Michael Jackson doing at Kmart? He heard little boys pants were 1/2 off :-) |

Okay, here's my favorite joke: Do you know why you shouldn't ever eat Jolly Green Giant Vegetables? Because he always stands over the carrots and peas.... (say it out loud) ;-) ;-) Loved it. Thank you. I'm feeling better at the moment because DH and I went out and had a GREAT lunch with a FABULOUS cake for dessert. The cake was made by a french pastry chef who gasp used real whipped cream. omg it was soooooooooo good. I had a soup and salad before that and they were great! This place is a five minute walk from our house, so I'm doomed. It just opened up. They still have a few kinks to work out, but I'm pretty optimistic about their being able to get it all right eventually. DH is feeling pretty badly about this. He's never been robbed before, and although the car (sorry I forgot to mention before that someone broke into the car) and pretty much everything in it is mine, he still feels like a victim because it happened to his *wife*. I feel really sorry for him. I'm actually not taking it too badly anymore because we're only out about a hundred bucks (deductible), whereas last time I was out thousands (it was my apartment that got hit that time, and I didn't have contents insurance, and I took it *really* hard), but since this is his first it's still kind of hard. It's funny - he's from downtown Toronto and has never had a problem until now, in a small city on the outskirts. It's just *like* that here, though. The cops don't care. When I was young enough to be doing the bar thing, we hardly ever heard of anything weird, but now you constantly hear of fights that involve knives and guns, and it's just scary. I don't know what has happened to this place, other than that the cops don't care about it. My 80+ year old neighbour has been robbed twice. She always tells me about how they never used to have to lock their doors, but now she's had all sorts of extra locks installed. Poor woman. She lives by herself. |

She has to keep that door locked all the time, now, even when just doing yard work. Sometimes we have to help her out because she loses her key and can't get back in. As for us and our car... We were home in bed and never heard a thing. The dogs never even barked, which is highly unusual and suggests someone who was used to breaking windows quietly. |

Games, too, and ID. The easy stuff to carry. Oh, and cash. The one who robbed my apartment was also clearly looking for drugs, since they took random pill bottles that contained nothing of interest (I think I *may* have had a bottle with Tylenol 3 in it, but that was all I had). Later on, they tried to steal my identity and use it to rip off a pharmacy to get some narcotics. The pharmacy alerted the police, who phoned me, and the problem was solved. They tried to rip off another pharmacy, but big mistake: It was the one I used and the pharmacist knew (and still knows) me rather well, so he alerted the police immediately. It's terrible. I just can't believe what some people are willing to do to their fellow citizens. What's worse is when someone tries to rape and/or kill someone. That just sickens me. Oh and unfortunately, now and then, you get big time thieves who use trucks and actually steal not only all of your small stuff, but your furniture, too. Someone a couple of blocks away from us recently had their entire house cleaned out. Once again, the cops are showing little interest. I said to DH today that if ever there was an investigation into the police here, there would probably be a *lot* of corruption uncovered. He said that another professor had actually said the same thing, but this other guy apparently has interesting connections, so what he says might not entirely be based on speculation. Makes me nervous. I hate it when the people you're relying on to protect you aren't trustworthy. I've toyed with the idea of installing security cameras and maybe even hiring a security firm to watch our house (assuming that *they* can be trusted...). Maybe we'll look into that more after the mortgage, which will thankfully be done next year. Cash flow won't be so tight, then, so it might be feasible. The irritating thing is that we don't live in a fancy house, but as I said before, it's little stuff that most of them are interested in. BTW, for the first time in my life, I vacuumed my driveway today. I had to. It was full of broken glass. There's still some there, too, so I'll have to do a second pass. |

I meant to say that the prof was a colleague of DH's (so I tripped myself up by thinking of DH as a prof, and thinking of the colleague as "another" prof...). ;-) |
