      Work or Play


      A man wonders if having sex on the Sabbath is a sin because he is not sure if sex is work or play. So he goes to a Priest and asks for his opinion on this question.

      After consulting the Bible, the Priest says, " My son, after an exhaustive search, I am positive that sex is work and is therefore not permitted on Sundays."



      The man thinks: " What does a priest know about sex?" So he goes to a Minister, who after all is a married man and experienced in this matter. He queries the Minister and receives the same reply. Sex is work and therefore not for the Sabbath! Not pleased with the reply, he seeks out the ultimate authority: a man of thousands of years tradition and knowledge. Rabbi. The Rabbi ponders the question, then states, " My son, sex is definitely play." The man replies, "Rabbi, how can you be so sure when so many others tell me sex is work?"

      The Rabbi softly speaks, "If sex were work, my wife would have the maid do it

      A NUN WAS SITTING AT THE VICTORIA AIRPORT, WAITING FOR HER FLIGHT TO CALGARY .

      SHE LOOKED OVER IN THE CORNER AND SAW ONE OF THOSE WEIGHT MACHINES THAT TELLS YOUR FORTUNE AND THOUGHT TO HERSELF, 'I'LL GIVE IT A TRY AND SEE WHAT IT TELLS ME.'

      SHE WENT OVER TO THE MACHINE, STEPPED UP ON THE SCALE AND PUT HER NICKEL IN, OUT CAME A CARD THAT READ, 'YOU ARE A NUN, YOU WEIGH 128 LBS, AND YOU ARE GOING TO CALGARY .'

      THE NUN SAT BACK DOWN. SHE TOLD HERSELF THAT THE MACHINE PROBABLYGIVES THE SAME CARD TO EVERYONE. THE MORE SHE THOUGHT ABOUT IT THE MORE CURIOUS SHE GOT SO SHE DECIDED TO TRY IT AGAIN SHE WENT BACK TO THE MACHINE AND AGAIN PUT HER NICKEL IN, AND OUT CAME A CARD THAT READ:

      'YOU ARE A NUN, YOU WEIGH 128 LBS, YOU ARE GOING TO CALGARY AND YOU ARE GOING TO PLAY A FIDDLE.'

      THE NUN SAYS TO HERSELF, 'I KNOW THAT IS WRONG, I HAVE NEVER PLAYED A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT EVEN ONCE IN MY LIFE.' SHE SAT BACK DOWN.

      FROM OUT OF NOWHERE A COWBOY CAME OVER AND SAT DOWN, PUTTING HIS FIDDLE CASE ON THE SEAT BETWEEN THEM.

      WITHOUT THINKING, SHE OPENED THE COWBOY'S CASE, TOOK OUT THE FIDDLE, AND STARTED PLAYING BEAUTIFUL MUSIC.
      SURPRISED AT WHAT SHE HAD DONE, SHE LOOKED OVER AT THE MACHINE, THINKING,
      'THIS IS INCREDIBLE, I'VE GOT TO TRY THIS AGAIN.'

      BACK TO THE MACHINE SHE WENT, PUT IN ANOTHER NICKEL, AND ANOTHER CARD CAME OUT. IT READ, 'YOU ARE A NUN, YOU WEIGH 128 LBS , YOU ARE GOING TO CALGARY AND YOU ARE GOING TO BREAK WIND.' NOW SHE KNOWS THE MACHINE IS WRONG ,AS SHE THOUGHT TO HERSELF, 'I'VE NEVER BROKEN WIND IN PUBLIC A SINGLE TIME IN MY LIFE.' BUT GETTING DOWN OFF THE MACHINE SHE SLIPPED,AND AS SHE WAS STRAINING TO KEEP HERSELF FROM FALLING TO THE FLOOR, SHE BROKE WIND.



      ABSOLUTELY STUNNED, SHE SAT BACK DOWN AND LOOKED AT THE MACHINE. SHE SAID TO HERSELF, 'THIS IS TRULY REMARKABLE. I'VE GOT TO TRY THIS AGAIN.'SHE WENT BACK TO THE MACHINE,PUT IN ANOTHER NICKEL ANd ANOTHER CARD CAME OUT.



      IT READ, 'YOU ARE A NUN, YOU WEIGH 128 LBS, YOU HAVE FIDDLED AND FARTED AROUND AND MISSED YOUR FLIGHT TO CALGARY

      Old Man And The Beaver

      An 86-year-old man went to his doctor
      for his quarterly check-up...

      The doctor asked him how he was feeling, and the
      86-year-old said ,'Things are great
      and I've never felt better.'

      I now have a 20 year-old bride
      who is pregnant with my child.

      "So what do you think about that Doc ?"




      The doctor considered his question for a minute
      and then began to tell a story.

      "I have an older friend , much like you, who is an avid
      Hunter and never misses a season."


      One day he was setting off to go hunting.

      In a bit of a hurry , he accidentally picked up his
      walking cane instead of his gun."

      "As he neared a lake , he came across a very large male
      beaver sitting at the water's edge..



      He realized he'd left his gun at home and so he couldn't
      Shoot the magnificent creature.

      Out of habit he raised his cane , aimed it at the animal
      as if it were his favorite hunting rifle and went 'bang, bang'."

      "Miraculously , two shots rang out and the
      beaver fell over dead.


      Now, what do you think of that ?" asked the doctor.

      The 86-year-old said ,
      "Logic would strongly suggest that somebody else
      pumped a couple of rounds into that beaver."

      The doctor replied , "My point exactly."

      I have been married for 36 yrs. In these yrs I have been beaten, my kids and I were alone all the time because drinking, golfing, and other people came before us. Now I have found out that he has been having an affair with his secretary for the past 14 yr. This distroyed me. I tried to make the marrage work but found things started going wrong. Didn't feel like he cares about me like he should and says he does. I left a yr ago and told him we need help but he says he has done everything.
