| ironic,theres no title | | Well,we are just getting ready to go out,so I asked my wife to make ONE MORE CUP OF COFFEE and she said we would wait till the weather forecast had been on.It says,A HARD RAINS GONNA FALL,and one things for sure,THE times they ARE A CHANGIN,if this global warming gets any worse,THE MIGHTY QUINN(QUINN THE ESKIMO),might struggle building his igloo.Mind you,we are lucky,here in the UK,I have never seen a HURRICANE.We would be quite unprepared for such an event,and I reckon many of us would be KNOCKIN ON HEAVENS DOOR.
But enough of the weather,last night,I saw something amazing,a man that had all the bits and looked JUST LIKE A WOMAN,but I didnt fancy saying LAY LADY LAY to her,and SONG TO WOODY was out of the question.She wanted to shag someone,but I said,IT AINT ME BABE.
Reminds me if when I was younger and dating a girl,her dad wasnt to chuffed,and one night when I was feeling a little hornu,I asked CAN SHE PLEASE CRAWL OUT YOUR WINDOW,she said it was to high,but she did when I said,DONT THINK TWICE,ITS ALRIGHT,I will catch you.Well,you guessed it,I didnt,and she fell and was propelled forward LIKE A ROLLING STONE,and su

| | Winning medals or winning hearts | | The times they are a-changin', sang Bob Dylan in the 1960s. But even he didn't have any idea about how much the world would change in the next 40 years. The world's economies, communications, cultures and international relations have all changed beyond recognition, as has the world of sports. Gone are the days when "friendship first, competition second" was chanted by athletes at every sports meet in China and banners proclaiming that spirit adorned every single sporting venue. Sport was then supposed to build a healthy body and mind, and was enjoyed for its own sake. "The most important thing" then, as founder of the modern Olympics Pierre de Coubertin said, was "not winning but taking part." Sporting glory and furtherance of their sport were the twin motivators for sportsmen and women. Outstanding performers were rewarded with no more than a trophy and a certificate of recognition. | |
| | Kids Know More than We think | | A new survey by Weekly Reader Research shows that 76 percent of 1,000 kids in fifth through ninth grades who were polled say they are choosing not to smoke. We bring this up because tomorrow, Nov. 16, is the 30th annual Great American Smokeout, the American Cancer Society's all-out effort to call attention to the health hazards of smoking. When many of today's adults were growing up, smoking added hefty points to a teen's "cool quotient." Kids also took pride in doing exactly what their parents told them not to do. You know who you are. Weekly Reader Research seems to indicate that the times, they are a-changin'. Forty-five percent of kids in the new poll said they don't smoke because "it's bad for me" while 40 percent said "I know it's not healthy." Twenty-one percent of the abstainers said they learned this lesson in school. But the bigger news is that 81 percent of them said that parents are the most influential persons in their decision to not smoke or use tobacco products. "The findings in this study will probably surprise some people," said Mike Fassino, director of Weekly Reader Research. "Contrary to what most people might believe, kids are listening to parents and... | |
