Tabea Rudolph, 26, Stuttgart

There are problems in the woods. The animals of the forest are always
drunk, so the fox decides to ban alcohol. The following day, the fox
spies a rabbit hanging out of a tree, clearly wasted. The fox ticks
him off, and carries on his way. But the next day he sees the rabbit
drunk again, and gives him a final warning. The next day, the fox does
his rounds and there's no sign of the rabbit, but he notices a straw
sticking out of a stream. Wondering what it is, the fox scoops it out,
only to find a very drunk rabbit on the other end of it. "How many
times do I have to tell you that animals of the forest aren't allowed
alcohol?" says the Fox. "We fishes don't give a toss what the animals
of the forest aren't allowed to do," says the rabbit

I am in shape. Round is a shape.

   Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.

   Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark,
professionals built the Titanic.

   Conscience is what hurts when everything else feels good.

   Practice safe eating -- always use condiments.

   A day without sunshine is like night.

   At pilots training back in the Air Corps they taught us, "Always try to keep
the number of landings you make equal to the number of take offs you make."

   To err is human, but to really foul things up requires a committee.

   My wife and I had words, but I didn't get to use mine.

   Frustration is trying to find your glasses without your glasses.

    2. Flabbergasted (adj.) appalled over how much weight you have  gained.

    3. Abdicate (v.) to give up all hope of ever having a flat stomach.

    4. Esplanade (v.) to attempt an explanation while drunk.

    5. Willy-nilly (adj.) impotent.

    6. Negligent (adj.) describes a condition in which you
    absent-mindedly answer the door in your nightgown.

men.

    The Washington Post's Style Invitational once again asked readers to take any

letter, and supply a new definition.

    Here are this year's winners:

    1. Bozone (n.) The substance surrounding stupid people that stops

    8. Osteopornosis (n) A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)

bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth explodes and it's
   like, a serious bummer.

only things that are good for you.

    11. Glibido (v) All talk and no action.

bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out.

    15. Caterpallor (n.) The color you turn after finding half a grub in  the
fruit you're eating.

You may not know that many non-living items are actually male or female, for
example :
   1. Freezer Bags -- They are Male, because they hold
   everything in, but you can see right through them.
   2. Copiers -- They are Female, because once turned off, it
   takes a while to warm them up again. It's an effective
   reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but
   can wreak havoc if the wrong buttons are pushed.
   3. Tyres -- Male, because they go bald and are often
   over-inflated.
   4. Hot Air Balloons -- Male, because, to get them to go
   anywhere, you have to light a fire under them, and of
   course, there's the hot air part.
   5. Sponges -- female because they're soft, squeezable and
   retain water.
   6. Web Pages -- Female, because they're always getting hit
   on.
   7. Trains -- Male, because they use the same old lines to
   pick people up.
   8. Egg Timers -- Female, because over time, the weight
   shifts to the bottom.
   9. Hammers -- Male, because they haven't changed much over
   the last 5,000 years, but handy to have around.
   10. The Remote Control -- Female...... Ha! You thought it'd
   be male. But consider this -- it gives a man pleasure,
   he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't always
   know the right buttons to push, he keeps trying.

Subject:: Cinderella - warning adult themes

Cinderella is now 95 years old.

After a fulfilling life with the now dead prince, she happily sits upon her
rocking chair, watching the world go by from her front porch, with a cat named
Jack for companionship.

One sunny afternoon out of nowhere, appeared the fairy godmother.

Cinderella said, "Fairy Godmother, what are you doing here after all these
years?"

The fairy godmother replied, "Cinderella, you have lived an exemplary life since
I last saw you. Is there anything for which your heart still yearns?"

Cinderella was taken aback, overjoyed, and after some thoughtful consideration,
she uttered her first wish:

"The prince was wonderful, but not much of an investor. I'm living hand to mouth
on my disability checks, and I wish I were wealthy beyond comprehension."
Instantly her rocking chair turned into solid gold.

Cinderella said, "Ooh, thank you, Fairy Godmother"

The fairy godmother replied, "It is the least that I can do. What do you want
for your second wish?"

Cinderella looked down at her frail body, and said, "I wish I were young and
full of the beauty and youth I once had."

At once, her wish became reality, and her beautiful young visage returned.
Cinderella felt stirrings inside of her that had been dormant for years.

And then the fairy godmother spoke once more: "You have one more wish; what
shall it be?"

Cinderella looks over to the frightened cat in the corner and says, "I wish for
you to transform Jack, my old cat, into a kind and handsome young man."

Magically, Jack suddenly underwent so fundamental a change in his biological
make-up that, when he stood before her, he was a man so beautiful the likes of
him neither she nor the world had ever seen.

The fairy godmother said, "Congratulations, Cinderella, enjoy your new life."

With a blazing shock of bright blue electricity, the fairy godmother was gone as
suddenly as she appeared.

For a few eerie moments, Jack and Cinderella looked into each other's eyes.
Cinderella sat, breathless, gazing at the most beautiful! , stunni ngly perfect
man she had ever seen.

Then Jack walked over to Cinderella, who sat transfixed in her rocking chair. He
held her close in his young muscular arms.

He leaned in close, blowing her golden hair with his warm breath as he
whispered...

"Bet you're sorry you had me de-sexed."

For those who watch what they eat, here's the final word on nutrition and
health.  It is a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting medical
studies.
     Facts:
   1. Japanese people eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the
Australians, British or Americans.
   2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the
Australians, British or Americans.
   3. Africans drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the
Australians, British or Americans.
   4. Italians drink large amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks
than the Australians, British or Americans.
   5. Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer
fewer heart attacks than the Australians, British or Americans.

   Conclusion:    Eat and drink what you like.  Speaking English is apparently
what kills you.

Working as a computer instructor for an adult-education program
   at a community college, I am keenly aware of the gap in computer
   knowledge between my younger and older students.

   My observations were confirmed the day a new student walked
   into our library area and glanced at the encyclopedia volumes
   stacked on a bookshelf.

   "What are all these books?" he asked.

   Somewhat surprised, I replied that they were encyclopedias.

   "Really?" he said. "Someone printed out the whole thing?"

BITCHOLOGY
    When I stand up for  myself and my beliefs,
   they call me a
   bitch.

When I stand up for
   those I love,
   they call me a
   bitch.

When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts
   or do things my own way, they call me a
   bitch.

Being a bitch
   means I won't
   compromise what's
   in my heart.
   It means I live my life
   MY way.
   It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to
   tolerate injustice and
   speak against it, I am
defined as a
   bitch.
The same thing happens when I take
   time for
   myself instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish.
   It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am
and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.
   I am outspoken,
   opinionated and determined. I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with
that!
So try to stomp on me,
   try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within
me.
   You won't succeed.

And if that makes me a bitch ,
   so be it.
   I embrace the title and
   am proud to bear it.
   B - Babe
I - In
T - Total
C - Control of
H - Herself

B = Beautiful
I = Intelligent
T = Talented
C = Charming
H = Hell of a Woman

B = Beautiful
I = Individual
T = That
C = Can
H = Handle anything

"If you can't do something right, get a woman to do it."

Fran
   so you're ok with whatever I (or anyone) finds and posts - I guess we can say
that if no-one else has any objections that it is free for all - and too bad to
anyone who is offended by anything!!! There seems to be quite a few members. It
would be sad if the only other posts are to whinge (especialy when w're here for
a laugh):)

I'll have to start sending some of the stuff that gets forwarded to me - very
selectively though! Should we have some guidelines on what's in etc (can't defy
anti-discrimination) but we may have to go beyond library type stuff. Anybody
got any other interests/topics that are off limits?

I know none of this is actually pertinent to libraries, but no-one has sent
anything funny for so long (except the warrier librarian)
   This is rated PG - mild course language -sorry if it offends

   ADVICE FOR 2006.

1*DON'T waste money on expensive ipods. Simply think of your favourite
tune and hum it. If you want to "switch tracks", simply think of another
song you like and hum that instead.

2*CINEMA goers: Please have consideration for pirate DVD viewers by
having a p*ss before the film starts.

3*RAPPERS: Avoid having to say 'know what I'm sayin' all the time by
actually speaking clearly in the first place.

4*DON'T waste money on expensive paper shredders to avoid having your
identity stolen. Simply place a few dog turds in the bin bags along with
your old bank statements.

5*WORRIED that your teeth will be stained after a heavy night drinking
red wine? Simply drink a bottle of white wine before going to bed to remove
the stains.

6*MURDERERS: Need to dispose of a body? Simply parcel it up and post it
to yourself via DHL. You will never see it again.

7*EMPLOYERS: Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half
the CVs into the bin.

8*ALCOHOL: Makes an ideal substitute for happiness.

9*MEN: When listening to your favourite CD, simply turn up the sound to
the volume you desire; then turn it down three notches. This will save your
wife from having to do it.

10*GAMBLERS: For a new gambling opportunity, try sending $50 to
yourself by NZ Post.

11*BLIND PEOPLE: Give yourself at least a chance of seeing something by
not wearing heavy dark glasses all the time.

12*DRIVERS: If a car breaks down or stalls in front of you, beep your
horn and wave your arms frantically. This should help the car start and send
them on their way.

13*PREVENT burglars stealing everything in the house by simply moving
everything in the house into your bedroom when you go to bed. In the
morning, simply move it all back again.

14*CAR thieves: Don't be discouraged when nothing is on view. All the
valuables may be hidden in the glove box or under a seat.

15*DEPRESSED people: Instead of attempting suicide as a 'cry for help';
simply shout 'Help!' thus saving money on paracetamol, etc.

16*MOTORISTS: Avoid getting prosecuted for using your phone whilst
driving. Simply pop you're mobile inside a large shell and the police will think
you are listening to the sea.

17*SINGLE men: Convince people that you have a girlfriend by standing
outside a supermarket with several bags of shopping, looking at your
watch and occasionally glancing inside.

18*BOIL an egg to perfection without costly egg timers by popping the
egg into boiling water and driving away from your home at exactly 60 mph.
After 3 miles, phone your wife and tell her to take the egg out the pan.

19*ALCOHOLICS: don't worry where the next drink is coming from. Go to
the pub, where a large selection is available at retail prices.

20*McDONALD'S: Make your brown carrier bags green in colour so they
blend in with the countryside after they've been thrown out of car windows.

21*WOMEN: Don't waste energy faking orgasms. Most men couldn't give a
s**t anyway and you could use the saved energy to hoover the house
afterwards
