DandyLions....Too Much Information.....

I've always considered dandelions as just weeds that are really hard to get rid of, but because I like taking close-up photos of....well....... EVERYTHING - I decided to take a couple pics of the new weeds that had just sprung up. I was a little taken aback when I downloaded and opened these photos - so I went back out and took one more wifer photo so that you could see them in context. The first pic is the larger one - just showing a weed in the yard - enjoy:

That Should Do It!

Well, what do you think? Ever seen Dandelions like that before? I now have a new found respect for them - actually I'm a little afraid of them - I don't go near them any more.....hope I'm not developing Botanophobia....

Have a Great Day!

Ole and Lena....

Ole and Lena, a truly devoted couple----
Ole, while not a brilliant scholar, was a gifted portrait artist. His fame grew, and, soon people from all over the country were coming to him in Minnesota for paintings and formal portraits. One day while Ole was mowing the lawn, a beautiful young woman pulled up to his house in a stretch limo. She asked Ole if he would paint her in the nude. This was the first time anyone had made this request.. The beautiful lady said money was no object; she was willing to pay him $50,000. Not wanting to get into trouble with his wife Lena, Ole asked the lady to wait while he went in the house and conferred with, his missus. In a few minutes he returned and said to the lady, "Ya, shoor, you betcha. I'll paint ya in da nude , but I'll haff ta leave my socks on so I'll have a place to wipe my brushes."

I had hoped that the last joke in my previous post might "clean-up" for the other ones, but I'm thinkin' maybe not so much...

"Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head And a beer gut, and still think they are sexy." :-}

Time to fire up the backhoe! :-}

Enjoy your week -

Diggin' a REALLY DEEP Hole...

Okay..... it's time to start diggin' a deeper hole for myself....:-}

How many men does it take to open a beer? None. It should be opened when she brings it.

Why is a Laundromat a really bad place to pick up a woman? Because a woman who can't even afford a washing machine will probably never be able to support you.

Why do women have smaller feet than men? It's one of those 'evolutionary things' that allows Them to stand closer to the kitchen sink.

How do you know when a woman is about to say something smart? When she starts a sentence with 'A man once told me....'

How do you fix a woman's watch? You don't. There is a clock on the oven.

If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife is yelling at the front door, who do you let in first? The dog, of course. He'll shut up once you let him in.

Why do men die before their wives? They want to.

Women will never be equal to men Until they can walk down the street with a bald head And a beer gut, and still think they are sexy. :-}

- I don't know what happened!! Someone hacked my blog and posted this!!! And now I can't get rid of it!!!

Sorry for the mix-up!

Have a Great Day

The Doctor Will See You Now....


A doctor and a lawyer were talking at a party. Their conversation was constantly interrupted by people describing their ailments and asking the doctor for free medical advice. After an hour of this, the exasperated doctor asked the lawyer, "What do you do to stop people from asking you for legal advice when you're out of the office?"
"I give it to them," replied the lawyer, "and then I send them a bill."
The doctor was shocked, but agreed to give it a try. The next day, still feeling slightly guilty, the doctor prepared the bills. When he went to place them in his mailbox, he found a bill from the lawyer. :-}
