      From SST Thursday

      Sometime this year, we taxpayers may again receive an Economic Stimulus payment.

      This is a very exciting new program. I will explain it using the Q and A format:

      Q. What is an Economic Stimulus payment?
      A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.

      Q. Where will the government get this money?
      A. From taxpayers.

      Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
      A. Only a smidgen.

      Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
      A. The plan is that you will use the money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.

      Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China ?
      A. Shut up.

      Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the US economy by spending your stimulus check wisely:

      * If you spend the stimulus money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China .
      * If you spend it on gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.
      * If you purchase a computer, it will go to India .
      * If you purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico , Honduras and Guatemala .
      * If you buy a car, it will go to Japan .
      * If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan .
      * If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to management bonuses and they will hide it offshore.

      Instead, keep the money in America by:

      1 spending it at yard sales, or
      2 going to hockey/ball games, or
      3 spending it on prostitutes, or
      4 beer or
      5 tattoos.

      (These are the only American businesses still operating in the US ..)

      ***
      I'm going to go to a ball game with a tattooed prostitute that I met at a yard sale, and drink beer! Just call me a patriot.

      I like cowboy stories


      A young cowboy walks into the town cafe. He sits at the counter and notices an old cowboy with his arms folded, staring blankly at a full bowl of chili.

      After fifteen minutes of just sitting there staring at it, the young cowboy bravely asked the old cowpoke, "If you ain't gonna eat that, mind if I do?" The older cowboy slowly turns his head toward the young wrangler and in his best cowboy manner says, "Nah, go ahead."

      Eagerly, the young cowboy reaches over and slides the bowl over to his place and starts spooning in it with delight. He gets nearly down to the bottom and notices a dead mouse in the chili. The sight was shocking and he immediately barfs up the chili into the bowl.

      The old cowboy quietly says, "Yep, that's as far as I got, too."

      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."
