Irish Introspection…Who’s Country Is It?

This cartoon should be posted in every school in the ” USA”

If Muslims can pray on Madison Avenue, why are Christians banned from praying in public and erecting religious displays on their holy days?

What happened to our National Day of Prayer? Obama says we can’t have that, yet Muslims are allowed to block off Madison Ave. in N. Y. and pray in the middle of the street! And, it’s a monthly ritual!

Tell me again, whose country is this? Ours or the Muslims?

I was asked to send this on if I agree, or delete if I don’t. It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God.

Therefore I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a problem in having ‘In God! We Trust’ on our money and having ‘God’ in the Pledge of Allegiance!

Good Morning!  I have been instructed that I am NOT to spend the time behind the keyboard, that I WILL rest today.  So, I gotta get this edition out quick.  Be very quiet while reading it and don’t laugh too loud.

I was playing Tooth Fairy when my daughter, Marina, suddenly woke up. Seeing the money in my hand, she cried out, “I caught you!”
I froze and tried to think of an explanation for why I, instead of the Tooth Fairy, was putting the money under her pillow but her next words let me off the hook.
“You put that money back!” she said indignantly. “The tooth fairy left that for me!”

Little Johnny was excited to see his grandpa was visiting when he arrived home from school. He immediately began to tell him about all the toys in his classroom and the games he liked to play there. “But what did you learn?” his grandpa asked.
Little Johnny thought for a moment and then replied, “I learned to be quiet.” Then he added, “Four times!”

Okay, so why do I see this set up and think, “This is PERFECT!”

Maybe… because I spend WAY TOO MUCH time in front of the computer? Nah!

WOW!  This Says It ALL….

Thanks Jeannie805

There are a couple of REALLY good one-liners that go along with this picture… Sexist, bigoted, but funny…really funny.  But, I will leave it up to you, dear reader, to figure those out on your own.  Just use your imagination.  I know you have one or you wouldn’t be reading Dragon Laffs right now.  Without an imagination, you would’ve given up on trying to figure us out a LONG time ago.

A good imagination is a sign of a good and bright mind.  It’s been proven.  But… just because I have a good imagination, just because I am THE Impish Dragon doesn’t mean that I’m stupid.  So, figure out the one-liners on your own and I won’t have to sleep on the couch tonight.

 
I ran into an old buddy the other day. He was a rising entrepreneur, but now he looked down and out. What gives? He begins wailing his tale.  “I had a restaurant out there on the interstate, you know. Spent a fortune on a new high-rise sign to attract traffic. It did, too. It read `free cocktail with dinner!’ The `cocktail’ was flashing red neon. Was it impressive!”
“Sounds like a good idea. So what went wrong?”
   “Oh, the county took notice, inspection crews come out, I’m harassed all the time by the Planning Department, the churches in the neighborhood have filed complaints.”
“Hey, I thought you ran a stand-up operation out there.”
“I did. Half my flashing red neon burned out!”
“Oh, I see…” I thought a minute. “Which half?”
“Don’t make no difference!” he wailed.

     A man suffering from impotence went to see a specialist.  The doctor gave him a prescription that he was to take faithfully three times a day, and always with food.
Two days later the man was at a formal banquet and didn’t want any of the other guests to spot and possibly identify his pink and purple capsule medication.  He instructed the waiter to empty the capsule into his soup, thinking he could eat his soup openly with everyone else, take his medication, and preserve his privacy all at the same time.
    However, when the soup was served everyone received a bowl of it but the man,
who began feeling conspicuous and angry.  He confronted the waiter and asked why he hadn’t been served his “special” soup.
    “Well, sir, I poured your medication into your bowl as instructed.  Since then, I have been waiting for the noodles to lie down.”

Funny, or scary as hell?

Workers at the decommissioned Hanford nuclear complex in Washington say they are looking for a radioactive mouse, following the capture of a radioactive rabbit.

Radioactive mouse droppings have been found in the same area where radioactive rabbit droppings were found this month, officials of Washington Closure Hanford said.

The company is responsible for cleaning up waste sites, demolishing buildings, placing two plutonium production reactors and one nuclear facility in interim safe storage at the decommissioned nuclear production complex on the Columbia River.

Because the mouse and rabbit droppings were found in the same area, WCH officials say they believe the animals ate or drank a common source of radioactive cesium contamination.

While the captured radioactive rabbit did not show any super abilities authorities are being cautious.

Four Catholic men and a Catholic woman were having coffee. 
 The first Catholic man tells his friends, “My son is a priest, when he walks into a room, everyone calls him ‘Father’.” 
 
The second Catholic man chirps, “My son is a Bishop. When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Grace’.”  

 
The third Catholic gent says, “My son is a Cardinal. When he enters a room everyone says ‘Your Eminence’.” 
 
The fourth Catholic man then says, “My son is the Pope. When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Holiness’.”
 
Since the lone Catholic woman was sipping her coffee in silence, the four men give her a subtle, “Well….?”

Animated Neil Diamond Sings Adam Sandler’s Hanukkah Song

1d

Last year we posted a video of Adam Sandler singing his Chanukah Song. (Put on your yarmulke, it’s time to celebrate Hanukkah…)  The song has become a standard and has been recorded by many other singers. 

We found an animated version that we think you’ll enjoy watching as we get ready to light the first Chanukah candle on December 1, only ten days from today. 

In this version, Neil Diamond (yes, the same Neil Diamond who sang Hava Nagila in The Jazz Singer and in Keeping Up With the Steins, and Kol Nidre in The Jazz Singer), performs a cover of Sandler’s song, while all of the Jews (and some non-Jews) identified in the song appear as cartoon characters.

Enjoy!

Today’s last word had been sent in amongst a group of jokes and treated just like any other.  I have, what may be, a unique perspective on this since I have two families.  “How can you do that?”  I can hear you asking.  Well, it’s like this, I have a 30 year-old daughter, who has given me a grandson.  A 28 year-old son, who has also given me a grandson. I also have a 9 year-old daughter. So, in essence, I’ve been through all of this before.  Now I can hear you asking, “WHY would you do that?”  The answer to THAT question, my dear friends, is proof positive that I have been blessed by God…

Is there a magic cutoff period when offspring become accountable for their own actions? Is there a wonderful moment when parents can become detached spectators in the lives of their children and shrug, “It’s their life,” and feel nothing?
    When I was in my twenties, I stood in a hospital corridor waiting for doctors to put a few stitches in my son’s head. I asked, “When do you stop worrying?”
     The nurse said, “When they get out of the accident stage.”  My mother just smiled faintly and said nothing.
     When I was in my thirties, I sat on a little chair in a classroom and heard how one of my children talked incessantly, disrupted the class, and was headed for a career making license plates. As if to read my mind, a teacher said, “Don’t worry. They all pass through this stage. Eventually you can sit back, relax and enjoy them.”  My mother listened and said nothing.
     When I was in my forties, I spent a lifetime waiting for the phone to ring, the cars to come home, the front door to open. A friend said, “They’re trying to find themselves. Don’t worry in a few years, you can stop worrying. They’ll be adults.”
     By the time I was 50, I was sick and tired of being vulnerable. I was still worrying over my children, but there was a new wrinkle. There was nothing I could do about it.  I continued to anguish over their failures, be tormented by their frustrations and absorbed in their disappointments.
     My friends said that when my kids got married, I could stop worrying and lead my own life. I wanted to believe that, but I was haunted by my mother’s wan smile and her occasional, “You look pale. Are you all right? Call me the minute you get home. Are you depressed about something?”
    Can it be that parents are sentenced to a lifetime of worry? Is concern for one another handed down like a torch to blaze the trail of human frailties and the fears of the unknown? Is concern a curse, or is it a virtue that elevates us to the highest form of life?
     Recently, one of my children became quite irritated, saying to me, “Where have you been? I’ve been calling for 3 days, and no one answered. I was worried.”
     I smiled a wan smile. The torch has been passed!

 

It gets passed to one and picked up again by another….Ah Life!  L’Chaim!

Happy Thanksgiving Message To Our Readers

Leprechaun here~

The Dragon is already busy stuffing himself (big surprise there) under the guises of supervising the meal prep so it falls to me to write our Thanksgiving message (another BIG surprise right?).

Just HOW busy and concerned was he in his supervising and tasting? Well SO busy in fact that he forgot I had placed this message in the drafts folder yesterday and  when pointedly reminded of the fact I was told he was too greasy of claw and full of maw and belly to attend to it as he needed a nap to digest his supervisory tasting before dinner. THEN he told me to send out for more pies as we were already out of them!

So here goes:

“Two hundred years ago, the Congress of the United States issued a Thanksgiving Proclamation stating that it was ‘the indispensable duty of all nations’ to offer both praise and supplication to God. Above all other nations of the world, America has been especially blessed and should give special thanks. We have bountiful harvests, abundant freedoms, and a strong, compassionate people. I have always believed that this anointed land was set apart in an uncommon way, that a divine plan placed this great continent here between the oceans to be found by people from every corner of the Earth who had a special love of faith and freedom. Our pioneers asked that He would work His will in our daily lives so America would be a land of morality, fairness, and freedom. Today we have more to be thankful for than our pilgrim mothers and fathers who huddled on the edge of the New World that first Thanksgiving Day could ever dream. We should be grateful not only for our blessings, but for the courage and strength of our ancestors which enable us to enjoy the lives we do today. Let us reaffirm through prayers and actions our thankfulness for America’s bounty and heritage.” —Ronald Reagan

Today is Thanksgiving. we here at DragonLaffs have plenty to be thankful for, including our wonderful families and staff. You readers make our labors worthwhile every day. We will always be thankful for your attention.

Since it’s Thanksgiving, We’ve decided to give our great staff a break. Instead of going to the office, they’re coming to my house. They will cook a huge meal, wait on me and then, wash my car! Naaah, that’s a joke. They’ll be off Thursday (saves on the payroll gold for which I’m personally thankful as Thanksgiving dinner for a Dragon is near to financial ruin).


We hope you and yours have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving Day. Let’s not forget to be thankful for all the brave men and women at home and abroad who are at their posts to protect us military and non military alike.  Say a prayer for our troops who are in harm’s way. Enjoy your holiday, and thank you for your continued loyal readership again this year.

Irish Thanksgiving Prayer

May your stuffing  be tasty
May your turkey be  plump,
May your potatoes  and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be  delicious
And your pies take  the prize,
And may your  Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your  thighs!

Not long after their wedding, the newlyweds awoke early one morning. The couple had been up for quite a while before they met up in the kitchen. Marriage was agreeing with the husband, and he greeted his new wife with glee and excitation that morning.

“If you’ll make the toast and pour the juice, sweetheart,” said the newlywed bride, “breakfast will be ready.”

“Great! What are we having for breakfast?” he asked.

“Toast and juice,” replied the bride.

This is an interesting, and fun set of games that claims to predict your brain age. If your brain age is less than your actual age, via this test, you are doing OK and Dr. Alzheimer hasn’t paid you a visit, or at least not done any real damage yet. I would like to see the statistical proof that this test is real and it can predict what is says it can.  http://www.freebrainagegames.com/ Well, it put my brain age at 43.  I guess that isn’t bad for a 52 year old on meds and with pneumonia.

A tramp who had hiked many miles along a rough outback track came to a small pub named ‘George and the Dragon’ and made his way around the back in search of a handout. Before he had time to ask, the publican’s wife came on the scene and gave the tramp the greatest verbal thrashing of his life.  She called him a lazy good for nothing loafer and
added if he was hoping to get even a crust of bread he could forget it.

The tramp heard her out in silence, then just stood there.

“Well,” she snapped, “now what is it you want?”

“I was wondering,” said the man, “if I could have a word with George?”

The Army Airborne major was used to harassment from Air Force fliers about crazy Army paratroopers jumping out of perfectly good aircraft. “Obviously the Air Force knows there’s no such thing as a ‘perfectly good aircraft,'” the irritated officer finally countered one afternoon, “because they pay you bastards four times as much to stay in one as the Army pays its men to jump.”
 
“You’ve got it all wrong, Major,” an Air Force sergeant replied. “The Army figures anyone stupid enough to jump out of an airplane voluntarily is gonna be too dumb to bitch about the salary.”

A man came home from the office and found his new blonde bride sobbing convulsively.
“I feel terrible,” she told him.
“I was pressing your suit and I burned a big hole in the seat of your trousers.”
“Oh, just forget it,” consoled her husband.
“Remember that I’ve got an extra pair of pants for that suit.”
“Yes, I know. And it’s lucky you have!” said the blonde bride, drying her eyes.
“I was able to use a piece from them to patch the hole!”

Many of you know of and use Snopes.com as a resource in your internet surfing and as a verifier of facts.  But, did you also know that the Mikkelsons also have several essays on subjects ranging from A to Z?  Today, very appropriately I might add, we are highlighting a terrifically funny one on the Turkey Cooking Hotlines entitled:

Let’s Talk Turkey

Origins: Key to the celebration of Thanksgiving is gathering with family and friends to partake of a sumptuous feast prepared in honor of the day.  Central to that feast(or at least to our common mental image of it) is a roasted turkey laid on a platter before the hungry 75guests, the bird presented in all it’s mouthwatering crispy-skinned perfection.

Yet, not every aspiring Thanksgiving-maker knows how to properly roast a turkey.  The bird proves an utter mystery to some, resulting in many a holiday mishap of a culinary nature.

Luckily, those confounded by the fowl can access a great deal of help by calling a number of turkey preparation hotlines.  While some offer only recorded tips on how to prepare and roast the bird, others provide live Happy Thanksgivingassistance from trained experts well experienced not only with poultry but with nervous and overwhelmed cooks.  Over the years, these talk line mavens have fielded all manner of queries from those bewildered by the fickle bird.

One of the more unusual questions handled by Butterball’s Turkey Talk-Line (which the company has operated since 1981) comes from those who have mistaken a well-traveled joke for an actual recipe:  They call to ask if they can pop popcorn in the turkey’s cavity during the roasting process.  (The joke’s punch lines is: “You know the turkey is done when the popcorn pops and blows the rear off theimg10 bird.”) And no, you can’t.

The hotline has heard from a  gal who couldn’t find the turkey she buried in a snow bank, a guy who wanted to know how to carve his bird with a chain saw, and a mechanic who worried about using motor oil as a baste.

Then there was the young mother who failed to notice her children playing near the oven-ready bird.  The kids decided the turkey’s cavity was a good place to park toy cars.  Their mom didn’t discover Ol’ Tom was doubling Not Christmas yetas a garage until after the turkey had been roasted.

Another confused cook called the Butterball line after cleaning her turkey because she wanted to know how to get the metal pieces out.  “Apparently,” said one of the Butterball economists, “she had scrubbed her bird with a steel scouring pad.” A West Coast woman who had taken anti-bacterial precautions too far called Butterball to find out how to get the bleach she’d used off her bird.

Butterball turkey experts still talk about the Kentucky woman who called in 1993 to ask how to get her dog out of her turkey.  It seems the woman’s Chihuahua had dived into the bird’s cavity and become trapped there.  The woman tried pulling the pooch and shaking the bird, all to no avail.  A Butterball economist finally suggested the woman carefully cut the opening in the turkey wider to release the captive canine.

The Reynolds Wrap Turkey Tips Line (800-745-4000) took a query from a woman whoTurkey wanted to know if she could cook her turkey by placing it in a Reynolds Oven Bag, putting it in the window in the back of her car, and letting the heat from the sun bake the turkey.  (She was told that would be an uncontrolled heat source and was instructed to use an oven instead.)

The folks at Butterball have also dealt with cooks determined to roast turkeys on the back ledges of their cars.  And they’ve had people call to ask if they could cook their holiday birds on radiators.  Then there was the bride who had a small, apartment-size range and was worried the turkey would get larger as it cooked (similar to a loaf of bread rising) – she was fretting she wouldn’t be able to get it out of the oven after it was done.  Some other howlers include the woman who cleaned out her turkey with a scrub brush, people who thawed their turkeys in the bathtub while washing their kids, and a man looking for a quick Untitled-TrueColor-01way to cook his turkey who put it in the oven on the cleaning cycle.

There are those whose problems are not how to get the turkey out of the oven, but when.  Said Nancy Rodriguez, coordinator of the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line in 1985, “One lady in Arkansas had her five-pound turkey in the oven 24 hours – did we think it was done?  Another caller wanted to know the best method for reattaching the thighs and drumsticks when they fall off.  His 12-pound turkey had been in the oven since 8 a.m. the day before.”

The self-cleaning option offered on a number of ranges has caused its share of Thanksgiving troubles when confused cooks have inadvertently started its cycle while their birds were in the oven.  Others have different range-related questions, such as: “Your directions say to roast the turkey, but my oven says only bake or broil; how do I set it?”

We’ll leave it to others to provide the more mundane advice regarding thawing and cooking times, how to prepare the bird for roasting and how to prepare stuffing, and instead offer these useful tips, as gleaned from the experiences of turkey hot line counselors:

  • Do not leave your turkey on your back porch, either to slow thaw it or to keep it chilled1 until the big day.  Those who have failed to heed this advice have discovered themselves birdless on Thanksgiving morning.  Their loss was the local raccoons’ gain – those masked marauders celebrated the day in fine style.
  • If you choose to bring home your frozen bird within the car proper rather than in the trunk, do take care to seatbelt the fowlsicle lest a sudden stop transform the star of the upcoming dinner into a weighty frozen projectile.  One woman who failed to belt down her bird was rewarded for her lack of foresight with a broken toe when a sharp tap of the brakes caused the iced fowl to slide off the seat and onto her foot.
