Hello Friends,

This Sunday we celebrate the happiest of holidays Purim. For those familiar with the Book of Esther it's all explained there but here's a synopsis of the holiday.

In the days of Achasveroush King of Persia (Iran) there was an evil man called Haman (Ahmadinejad) who wanted to exterminate all the Jews in the Persian kingdom. He convinced the King and an edict was sent out to all parts of the kingdom that all the Jews were to be killed on a certain day.

It just so happened that the King wasn't happy with his queen Vashti since she was refusing her "good services" and he decided to find himself a new queen. He said he would take as queen the fairest maiden in the land and fortunately our beautiful Esther was the fairest of them all.

Esther became Queen and her uncle Mordechai became the King's close adviser and he convinced the King that exterminating all the Jews isn't a good idea and he changed the edict. Hence this happiest of holidays celebrated amid much joy, celebraion and partying.

Haman (Ahmadinejad) got his just deserts and he and his entire family were hung from the "hanging tree".

We'll just have to wait and see how the modern day Haman gets his just deserts. :)

Here's Dry Bones holiday greetings.

Shalom,

Peter


Purim is a three-day carnival-like festival in Israel celebrating our deliverance from planned mass extermination by the Persians (now called the Iranians). It starts on Sunday, but I already saw some Tel Avivis in costume yesterday!

Happy Happy Joy Joy!!

Hi Peter,

Here's a few I thought you might like...

After 15 years of marriage, Kate leaves her husband Danny. Danny lost everything to his X wife, so thinking he’s going insane he takes a little walk through the forest. As he was walking his foot hits a lamp and a genie comes out. The genie says, “I'll give u 3 wishes, BUT everything you get your wife gets two times as much.

Danny wishes for a car and his wife got two times as many cars. Then he wished for a house and his wife got two houses. Then Danny asked the genie to choke him half two death.

Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, surely I can't look that old. Well, you'll love this one....

My name is Alice Smith and I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist. I noticed his diploma, which had his full name.

Suddenly, I remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name had been in my high school class some 30-odd years ago. Could he be the same guy that i had a secret crush on, way back then?

Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate.

After he examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended Morgan Park High school.

'Yes. Yes, I did.' he gleamed with pride.

'When did you graduate?' I asked.

He answered, 'In 1967. Why do you ask?'

'You were in my class!' I exclaimed.

He looked at me closely. Then, that ugly, old, bald, wrinkled, fat, gray-haired man asked, 'What did you teach?'

An eighty year old woman was getting married for the fourth time. A newspaper was interviewing her about her previous marriages. She said she got married the first time when she was twenty to a banker.

Then, in her forties she married a three ring circus leader. Then she married a preacher. And now she's marring a funeral home director. And the lady replied, when I look back at my previous marriages, I see one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go.

One day a blonde, a brunette, and a redhead were being chased by the police.

The girls decided to go up 3 different trees and hide.

The brunette hid in the apple tree. The redhead hid in the lemon tree, and the blonde hid in the oak tree.

The policeman went to the apple tree and said, “Is there anyone up there?"

The brunette went, "meow"

The policeman said to himself, "Oh, its just a cat stuck up in a tree!"

Then he went over to the lemon tree and said, "Is there anyone up there?"

The redhead went, "bark bark"

The policeman said to himself, "Oh, its just a dog stuck up in a tree!"

Then he went over to the oak tree and said, "Is there anyone up there?"

The Blonde went, "Acorn, acorn!"

One day President Obama fell off a bridge and was saved by three young boys.

Obama thanked them and said he'd give them all one thing in the whole world.

The first boy asked for a trip to Disney Land and vuala... that summer he was in Disney Land.

The second boy asked for a pair of Nike Shocks and sure enough the next day he was wearing a pair of Nike's.

The third boy asked for a wheel chair with a plasma TV, cup holders and hydrolics.

Obama, looking puzzled at the boy, asked why he wanted a tricked out wheel chair because he didn't look disabled.

The young boy replied, "I will be after my father finds out that I saved you".

One day God was talking to Adam and he said "Adam you look lonely, I know I'll give you a woman but it will cost you an arm and a leg."

Adam said " what can I get for a rib?"

The rest is history.

There once was a priest, a minister, and a rabbi fishing in a boat together.

One day, the priest said, "I'm thirsty," and stepped out of the boat. He then walked on water and took a drink from a booth on the beach.

The next day, the minister said, "I'm thirsty," and stepped out of the boat. He then walked on water and also took a drink from a booth on the beach.

On the third day, the rabbi said, "I'm thirsty". But as soon as he stepped out of the boat, he drowned.

The minister looked at the priest and said, "Think we shoulda told him where the rocks were?"

Wishing You A Joyous Celebration My Friend,
Phil

The moment I.....


It seems that since computers came into the business game, the advantage that secretaries had given to themselves has been corrected somewhat (just an opinion, mind you).

Happy Saturday, everyone.

Sick Leave
I urgently needed a few days off work, but I
knew the Boss would not allow me to take
leave. I thought that maybe if I acted 'CRAZY'
then he would tell me to take a few days off.
So I hung upside down on the ceiling and
made funny noises.
My co-worker (who's blonde) asked me what
I was doing. I told her that I was pretending to
be a light bulb, so that the Boss would think
I was 'CRAZY' , and give me a few days off.
A few minutes later the Boss came into the
office and asked 'What are you doing?' I told
him I was a light bulb.
He said, 'You are clearly stressed out. Go
home and recuperate for a couple of days.
I jumped down and walked out of the office.
When my co-worker (the blonde) followed me,
The Boss asked her ..'And where do you think
you're going?'
(You're gonna love this.....)

She said, 'I'm going home too,
I can't work in the dark!

Seniors on a Little Road Trip

While on a road trip, an elderly couple stopped at a roadside restaurant for lunch.

After finishing their meal, they left the restaurant and resumed their trip.

When leaving, the elderly woman unknowingly left her glasses on the table and she didn't miss them until they had been driving about twenty minutes.

By then, to add to the aggravation, they had to travel quite a distance before they could find a place to turn around in order to return to the restaurant to retrieve her glasses.

All the way back, the husband became the classic grouchy old man.
He fussed and complained and scolded his wife relentlessly during the entire return drive. The more he chided her -- the more agitated he became. He just wouldn't let up.

To her relief, they finally arrived at the restaurant. As the woman got out of the car and hurried inside to retrieve her glasses, the old geezer yelled to her. 'While you're in there, you might as well get my hat and the credit card!'

This is National Mental Health Care week.

You can do your part by remembering to contact at least one unstable person to show you care.
