Hi Ho! Hi Ho! It's Back To Work I Go !.... Oh No!!!

Ocean Of Beer:

Two men were adrift in a lifeboat following a dramatic escape from a burning freight vessel. While rummaging through the boat's provisions, one of the men stumbled across an old lamp.

Secretly hoping that a Genie would appear, he rubbed the lamp vigorously. To the amazement of the castaways, one did come forth. This particular Genie, however, stated that she could only deliver one wish, not the standard three.

Without giving much thought to the matter the man blurted out, "Make the entire ocean into beer!"

Immediately the Genie clapped her hands with a deafening crash, and the entire sea turned into the finest brew ever sampled by mortals. Simultaneously, the Genie vanished to her freedom.

Only the gentle lapping of beer on the hull broke the stillness as the two men considered their circumstances. The other man looked disgustedly at the one whose wish had been granted. After a long, tension-filled moment, he spoke:

"Nice going! Now we're going to have to pee in the boat."

At Home:

Yes, my time of fun is over.... I return back to ACIPCO on Monday. These last 2 months have been nice but I did ask to return to work. I still can't use my thumb but I felt it was time to remind folks that I did still have a job. ;)
Speaking of which.... the doctor informed me this week that he didn't know how long it might take for the bone to knit. It seems that he has never actually done this type of implant before, using a 'dead' donor bone instead of a 'live' bone from me. Seems like this was something he might should have mentioned before.... but not to worry, it should still work, eventually. :)
We spent last Friday and Saturday at the lake. I got the boat ready but didn't have time to put it in the water.Had some friends come up, did a little fishing and out for grub. Nice.
Easter went well. No kids to hide eggs from but I did make Bobbie and Tiff baskets. This year I used hat boxes for baskets.
Tiff started a new job. Good Luck! I hope she really enjoys it.
Sadly, Bobbie had an Aunt pass away this morning. I guess we'll be driving up to Florence either Saturday or Sunday for the service. Rest in peace, Aunt Christine.

Anecdote:

Borge, Victor (1909- ) U.S. comedian and pianist, born in Denmark

Explaining why the keys of his paino were so yellow, Borge insisted that it was not that the paino was so old, but because " the elephant smoked too much." :)
