  • Want to work on an offshore oil rig?

    How to get used to working on an offshore rig:

     

    • Buy a dumpster, paint it gray and live in it for 2 weeks straight. 

     

    • Yell at your neighbor if he walks outside without a hardhat and boots.

     

    •  Have your family eat the raunchiest Mexican food you can find for three days straight, then yell at them for spending too much work time in the bathroom.

     

    • Make your family complete a JSA before they operate any appliances in your home (i.e. Dishwasher operator, blender technician, etc.).

     

    • Spend $20,000 on a satellite system for your TV, but only watch Fox News and the Country Music station.

     

    • Have the family vote on which TV channels to watch and then pick different ones.

     

    • Sew reflective strips to the front of all your shirts.

     

    • Reprogram all your phones so that you have to dial 99 the number and # to call anyone outside your neighborhood. When you do call wait 3 seconds after every question before speaking.

     

    • Needle gun the aluminum siding on your house after your neighbors have gone to bed.

     

    • Buy $50,000 worth of radio equipment "in case" there is an emergency and hire a qualified radio operator to "man the station"..... then make them pay your bills, arrange your travel and answer all your phone calls.

     

    • When your kids come home with A's on their report card buy them a camouflage hat with flames down the side and the family name embroidered across the brim.

     

    • Yell at your wife if she cooks anything but fried chicken for lunch on Sunday

     

    • Each Christmas when your aunt Jane and uncle Jim visit make them stay on the porch until they have watched a 2 hour video of yourself pointing out all the fire extinguishers and smoke alarms in your house.

     

    • Never call a local repair man when your stove breaks. Instead call someone in the UK and pay for their flight. When they arrive call the taxi company and give them strict orders not to pick the repairman up until the stove is fixed.

     

    • Sleep on the shelf in your closet. Replace the closet door with a curtain. Have you wife whip open the curtain about 3 hours after you go to sleep. She should then shine a flashlight in your eyes and mumble "Sorry, wrong rack."

     

    • Designate a room in the house as "The Control Room" then make your kids sit their in front of a computer screen for 12 hours. Tell them that if anything turns red they could cost the family millions of dollars.

     

    • Tell your neighbor to call you when ever they see a thunderstorm in your area.

     

    • Leave the lawn mower running in your living room eight hours a day.

     

    • Head to the local dive "bar" and ask the first retired guy you see to sit in your home office scratching his nuts. Make him a plaque reading "company man" and tell him to "remind" you daily about every squeaky floor, dripping faucet, late mail deliveries.... Tell him to invite his friends over and when they show up move your kids into the garage so they have a nice bed to sleep in.

     

    • Each morning jot down the wind speed/direction, barometer reading and the amount of fluids in your hot water heater, gas tank, lawn mower.... convert the figures you get into whatever unit of measurement you did not use and write it down in 6 different places.

     

    • Have your kid monitor the police scanner 24 hours a day "just in case there's an emergency.

     

    • Go to your local elementary school and ask the principal to send you a weekly list of the stupidest things the kindergarteners have done that week.

     

    • Call a meeting with your family every Monday and read the list with a straight face.

     

    • Place toothpicks, picante sauce and a can of Tony Chachere's on your kitchen table.

     

    • Call 911 and tell them to send a helicopter each time your son falls off his bike.

     

    • Eat only at all-you-can-eat buffet restaurants that specialize in fried foods. Bonus points if you have a view of the cooking area from your table and the place primarily employs nose-pickers and butt-scratchers.

     

    • Twice a day (or more if possible) get everyone together in as small a room as possible (a closet or bathroom should do) and have a meeting to listen to someone tell you what you did all day. Bonus points for reiterating statements multiple times (i.e. "Like Joe said, safety is...").

  • THE HUSBAND SUPERSTORE

    Recently a "Husband Super Store" opened where women could go to choose a husband from among many men.  It was laid out in five floors, with the men increasing in positive attributes as you ascended.  The only rule was, once you opened the door to any floor, you could choose a man from only that floor; if you went up a floor, you couldn't go back down except to leave the place, NEVER to return.

    A couple of girlfriends, who after enduring some bad dates and so so boyfriends, decided they were tired of dating and wanted more.  Seeing the shopping center, they decided to go and find a husband........

    FIRST FLOOR.....

    The door had a sign saying "These men have jobs and love kids".  The women read the sign and said, "Well thats better than not having a job or not loving kids, but I wonder what's further up?"  So up they went.....

    SECOND FLOOR.....

    The sign read, "These men have high paying jobs, love kids and are good looking."  "Hm mmm," said the ladies, "But I wonder what's further up?".....

    THIRD FLOOR.....

    This sign read, "These men have high paying jobs, are extremely good looking, love kids and help with the housework." "Wow," said the ladies,  "Very tempting, but there is another floor." So further up they went.....

    FOURTH FLOOR.....

    This door had a sign saying, "These men have high paying jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic streak."  "Oh, mercy me," they cried, "Just think what must be waiting further on! So up to the fifth floor they went.....

    FIFTH FLOOR.....

    The sign on the door said, "This floor is empty and exists only to prove that women are impossible to please. The exit is to your left, we hope you fall down the stairs."

  • Angel without Wings

    looking into your eyes
    i see all i want to be
    and i don't want it to end
    if i could only put to words the way
    i see you
    i only know i had an angel with me now

    and when i fall asleep
    you're all that i see
    you're in my thoughts
    and all of my prayers
    i wish i could be
    all that you mean to me

    my angel without wings
    my angel

    i wish you could see
    all that you mean to me
    but i can never find the words
    to tell you

    and when i fall asleep
    you're all that i see
    you're in my thoughts
    and all of my prayers
    i wish i could be
    all that you mean to me

    and when i fall asleep
    you're all that i see
    you're in my thoughts
    and all of my prayers
    i wish i could be
    all that you mean to me
    my angel without wings

  • Blonde on Blonde...

    I apologize to my fellow xangans in advance, but I could not resist a bit of light humor tonight.  Work has been especially stressful lately.

     

    A blonde was speeding in a 35 mile per hour zone when a local police cruiser pulled her over.

    The police officer who walked up to the car also happened to be a blonde. She asked for the blonde's driver's license.

    The driver searched frantically in her purse for a while and finally said to the blonde policewoman, "What does a driver's license look like?'

    Irritated, the blonde cop said, "You dummy, it's got your picture on it!"

    The blonde driver frantically searched her purse again and found a small, rectangular mirror down at the bottom. She held it up to her face and said, "Aha! This must be my driver's license", then handed it to the blonde policewoman.

    The blonde cop looked in the mirror, handed it back to the driver and said, "You're free to go. And, if I had known you were a police officer too, we could have avoided all of this."

  • Poetry of Love?

    Ah, love, let us be true.
    To one another! for the world which seems
    To lie before us like a land of dreams,
    So various, so beautiful, so new,
    Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
    Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
    And we are here as on a darkling plain
    Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
    Where ignorant clash by night.

  • Where is the love - Roberta Flack & Donnie Hathaway

    http://www.filestube.com/e82b3cd1eb57159103e9/go.html

    Where is the love

    You said you'd give to me

    soon as you were free

    will it ever be

    Where is the love?

    You told me that you didn't love him,

    and you were gonna say goodbye

    but if you really didn't mean it,

    why did you have to lie?

    Where is the love,

    you said was mine all mine, till the end of time

    was it just a lie

    where is the love

    If you had had a sudden change of heart

    I wish that you would tell me so

    don't leave me hangin on the promises

    you've got to let me know

    Oh how I wish I never met you

    I guess it must have been my fate

    to fall in love with someone else's love

    all I can do is wait

    (that's all I can do)

    yeah yeah yeah

    Where is the love (vamp until end)
