Out of the mouths of babes… January 27, 2005

Filed under: Uncategorized — dawnselene @ 1:31 pm

From my e-mail.

I laughed my ass off when I read this…

I was driving with my three young children one warm summer evening when a woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my five-year-old shout from the back seat, “Mom! That lady isn't wearing a seat belt!”

———–

On the first day of school, a first grader handed his teacher a note from his mother. The note read, “The opinions expressed by this child are not necessarily those of his parents.”

———-

A woman was trying hard to get the catsup to come out of the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her four-year old daughter to answer the phone.
“It's the minister, Mommy,” the child said to her mother. Then she added, “Mommy can't come to the phone to talk to you right now. She's hitting the bottle.”

———–

A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the women's locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in amazement and then asked, “What's the matter — haven't you ever seen a little boy before?”

———–

It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me. “Is that a dog you got back there?” he asked. “It sure is,” I replied. Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he said, “What'd he do?”

————

While working for an organization that delivers lunches to elderly shut-ins, I used to take my four-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and
whispered, “The tooth fairy will never believe this!”

———–

A little girl was watching her parents dress for a
party. When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she
warned, “Daddy, you shouldn't wear that suit.” “And
why not, darling?” “You know that it always gives you
a headache next morning.”

———-

While walking along the sidewalk in front of his
church, our minister heard the intoning of a prayer
that nearly made his collar wilt. Apparently, his
five-year-old son and his playmates had found a dead
robin. Feeling that proper burial should be performed,
they had secured a small box and cotton batting, then
dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the
deceased. The minister's son was chosen to say the
appropriate prayers and with sonorous dignity intoned
his version of what he thought his father always said:
“Glory be unto the Faaaather, and unto the
Sonnn….. and into the hole he gooooes.”

———–

A little girl had just finished her first week of
school. “I'm just wasting my time,” she said to her
mother. “I can't read, I can't write and they won't
let me talk!”

———–

A little boy opened the big family Bible. He was
fascinated as he fingered through the old pages.
Suddenly, something fell out of the Bible. He picked
up the object and looked at it. What he saw was an old
leaf that had been pressed in between the pages.
“Mama, look what I found”, the boy called out. “What
have you got there, dear”? With astonishment in the
young boy's voice, he answered, “I think it's Adam's underwear…

Dido – <i>Hunter</i> January 26, 2005

Filed under: Uncategorized — dawnselene @ 12:25 pm

I've had this song stuck in my head for the past two days…
And no, it doesn't correspond to my personal life. The melody is haunting and that's what I have stuck in my head.

With one light on
In one room
I know you're up
When I get home
With one small step
Upon the stair
I know your look
When I get there

If you were a king
Up there on your throne
Would you be wise enough to let me go
For this queen you think you own

Wants to be a hunter again
I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again
So let me go…

The unread book
And painful look
The TV's on
The sound is down
With one long pause
Then you begin
Oh look what
The cat's brought in

If you were a king
Up there on your throne
Would you be wise enough to let me go
For this queen you think you own

Wants to be a hunter again
I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again
So let me go
Let me leave

For the crown you've placed upon my head
Feels too heavy now
And I don't know what to say to you
But I'll smile anyhow
And all the time I'm thinking
Thinking…

I want to be a hunter again
I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again
So let me go

Pagan? January 26, 2005

Filed under: Uncategorized — dawnselene @ 12:24 am

Hm, what a shock.

Take the quiz: “WHAT RELIGION BESTS SUITS YOU?”


Pagan/Occultist

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. Spending your entire life searching various forms of philosophy and religion, you choose to observe everything and believe little. You're personality is one of truth seeking, nature respecting and god/goddess accepting. Lastly, you don't judge anyone, but if annoyed, you will exact some form of revenge. You don't believe in the Three-Fold Law.

Can't I just stay home and read my poli. sci. book?

Dear Valued Verizon Online DSL Member,

Thank you for choosing Verizon Online DSL as your Internet service provider.

Please note, starting February 20, 2005, you will begin seeing a monthly Tax Recovery Fee on your DSL service bill. This is not a tax charged directly to Verizon Online's customers, but the partial recovery of tax that Verizon Online must pay when they purchase the DSL circuit from the telephone company.

This fee will be eliminated after the recently passed expansion of the Internet Tax Nondiscrimination Act becomes effective in November 2005 until November 2007. Since this is not a direct tax but is the recovery of a tax paid by Verizon Online, there are no applicable exemptions. More information is available online at www.verizon.net/myaccount.

We appreciate and value your business.

Sincerely,

Verizon Online
Broadband Customer Care Team

You are Elizabeth Bathory.
(The bloodcountess)
Legend tells us that you, this very rich, beautiful and high born woman tortured and murdered some 650 young women and bathed in their warm blood to keep yourself beautiful. In some stories, it is said you have drank their blood as well. You were a sexual sadist on a grand scale. Ah vanity is your downfall. For shame!

Which Imfamous criminal are you?
