Texas Trooper

Two guys are speeding through Texas when a state trooper pulls them over. The trooper walks up to the drivers side of the car, gets out his billy club and smacks the driver across the face. Stunned, the driver asks, "Why did you do that??"

The trooper responds, "You're in Texas now son, you have that license out and ready around here!"

"I apologize sir, I'm not from around here."

The trooper then walks to the passenger side of the car, and taps on the window. The passenger rolls down his window and the trooper takes out his club and smacks the passenger across the face.

"What was that for?" asked the passenger.

"I know your kind," says the trooper, "About two miles down the road you would have looked at your buddy and said 'I wish that son of a gun would have tried that crap with me!'"

Tough Love

A dying man smells his favorite oatmeal raisin cookies cooking downstairs. It takes all the strength he has left but he gets up from the bed and crawls down the stairs. He sees the cookies cooling on the counter and staggers over to them.

As he reaches for one, his wife's wrinkled hand reaches out, smacks his and she yells:

"No, you can't have those! They're for the funeral!"

The Rabbi and the Priest

A Rabbi and a Priest buy a car together and it's being stored at the Priest's house. One day the Rabbi goes over to use the car and he sees him sprinkling water on it. The Rabbi asked, ''What are you doing?'' The Priest responded, ''I'm blessing the car.'' So the Rabbi said ''Okay, since we're doing that....'' and takes out a hacksaw and cuts two inches off the tail pipe.

Just a bit of a Smile

One day, Adam sat outside the Garden of Eden shortly after eating the apple, and wondered about men and women. So looking up to the heavens he said, "Excuse me God, can I ask you a few questions?"

God replied, "Go on Adam but be quick. I have a world to create."

So Adam says, "When you created Eve, why did you make her body so curved and tender unlike mine?"

"I did that, Adam, so that you could love her."

"Oh, well then, why did you give her long, shiny, beautiful hair, and not me?"

"I did that Adam so that you could love her."

"Oh, well then, why did you make her so stupid? Certainly not so that I could love her?"

"Well, Adam no. I did that so that she could love you."

Here I come to save the day...

Is everyone just too busy to communicate anymore? I don't want any of your excuses. Get on this computer and blog, for heaven sakes!

I've been externing (is that a word) at the hospital for a week now. So far so good. I haven't killed anyone yet (that I know of). And all the techs I have worked with think I should try to get a job there. That's saying something.

School starts August 12th. Waa Hoo!

Well, I don't want the owners of this blog to look boring so I'll stop now. More later, if you're lucky!!

OK! OK!...I KNOW Andy and Emily are still excited about the upoming wedding...But sheesh! Nothing new since April 30th??

Just for kicks, I'll post some nonsense to keep things new and fresh :)

For all of you that were wondering...I passed my mid-term. Barely (81%) but, hey, passing is passing. Yea for me!

Here's a joke:

A husband fathered five children. He was so proud of his accomplishment that he always found a way to bring up his status of "father of five" into conversations. Much to his wife's dismay and embarrassment he refered to her as "mother of five".

One evening while attending a company party, the husband decided it was time to go. Loudly he shouts to wife across the room, "Are you ready to leave to mother of five?" His wife, having had enough of this, replied back in an equally loud voice, "Anytime you are father of one!!" Ha! Ha! Ha!!

Andy and Emily are getting married!

Andy and Emily are getting married!! Belnap family please remember to save the evening of June 13th for a special celebration dinner and then on June 14th the sealing will take place in the Bountiful, UT temple with reception to follow that evening. Only 46 more days! We're so excited!!

Hey, You Still Like Wal-Mart?

My ex-husband and I fought constantly, Why I married him, I'll never know.
For all those miserable years I said My hubby has got to go!

Tried poisoning cakes, stripping his brakes, Salting his pork chops with lime.
Wiring his chair, igniting his hair Even though playing with fire is a crime.

But I failed at each plot 'til I suddenly thought Of a way that would set me free!
I got rid of him for good and, know what? They couldn't do a thing to me!

I took him back to Wal-Mart! They'll take anything back you know!
They said they couldn't recall selling him, But they must have if I said so.

They just credited him to my Visa and said, "Y'all come back now, 'ya hear?"
They were so nice, polite, pleasant and insistent, I'll take back his mother next year!

They'll take anything back at Wal-Mart, Though it's broken or rotten or sweet.
And know what else? This time of year You don't even need a receipt!

Slow Days...

I guess we're all too busy to keep up on the postings... Sad. Is Andy ever going to contribute? I would love to see something from him. Just for kicks. Well, I just posted a long entry on the Thacher Crew site. I'd post it here, too. But that would make things too easy for you all. Ha! Ha! Ha! So go along and read the latest. And post someting, would ya??

The Independent review

Our family musician got "reviewed" in a local paper. Come to our blog and check it out. His little fan club is so proud!!

He Cleans Up Pretty Good

While we sit at home digging out from another snow storm, Andy has spent the end of the week in Phoenix (in the Sun, In the Warm, where white is a house paint color) at a wedding. No it's not his. But we did have a fairly effective spy, he stayed with the Frier's and knowing Sister Frier we have Pictures! Don't think Sister Frier did any photo shop corrections so I guess Andy really is that tall or they brought in a really short guy to stand next to him.

Present and Accounted for!!

We are in and accounted for. Happy New Year to all.

Winter Really Isn’t Cool

Hi from the deep freeze. Chris came into my office looked at me and said "Dad it's freezing outside". In the usual response I said "OK Chris" and went back to work.

"No Dad, It's really freezing outside" Well we all know how Chris can repeat at times. But as I looked up at him he had his coat zipped clear to the top, his 'Nanook of the North' hat that covers his ears on. Between the hat and the coat collar you could barely see his face. He was double gloved. And from what you could see of his face it was apparent he was serious.

So what's up Chris? Dad, its soooo freezing outside". He was after all right it was the coldest it had been since we had returned to Utah and it was certain that tonight it would be in the single digits, and yes it was cold. But did he need to remind me at 2 in the afternoon of what would be coming for certain? No, it would just make it worst.

As I tried to brush him off for the third time, He looked at me and said "Dad it's so freezing we need to go home right now". Now? We're not done with work. "Right now, It's so freezing we need to go home right now, we need to get home before it gets more freezing"

I tried to explain that it would be fine if we waited till it was time to go home, that we would get there safe and everything would be OK.

Then came the real jewel "Dad I got to get home and start to warm up my bed"

He was right it was too cold to stay any longer and I needed to get home and make sure my bed was getting warmed up, too. In fact, the wisdom of Chris is right. The only way to 'do winter' should be in bed with the covers pulled up.

As we were headed out the door he looked up "Srig is coming Dad" well at least it will be this year instead of next year. Winter really does suck.
