 THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE

        Napa Valley vintners have developed a new wine with anti-diuretic properties designed to radically reduce the number of times seniors will have to go to the bathroom at night.

                The new wine is to be marketed as  “PINO MORE.”


      “Santa: Your traditional, jolly guy.  But the actor should use his natural voice and not try to sound like an old Santa.” ~ V.O. audition direction


OLD AGE IS A DOG

        Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement.

        The first is examined within the hour, ix-rayed the same day and is booked for surgery the following week. The second sees his family doctor after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment, then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn't reviewed for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled a month from then.

        What’s the difference?

        The first patient is a Golden Retriever. The second patient is a Senior Citizen.


“Old age ain't no place for sissies.” ~ Bette Davis             


X-MAS SPIRIT

Three men died on Christmas Eve and were met by Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates. "In honor of this holy season," Saint Peter said, "You must each possess something that symbolizes Christmas to get into heaven."

The first man fumbled through his pockets and pulled out a lighter. He flicked it on and said, “It represents a candle.”

"You may pass through the pearly gates," Saint Peter replies.

The second man reached into his pocket and pulled out a cell phone and played his call tone. "They're bells." Saint Peter says, "You may pass through the Pearly Gates."

The third man desperately started searching and finally pulled out a pair of women's panties from his trouser pocket.

St. Peter looked at the man and asked skeptically, "And just what do those symbolize?"

The man replied, "These are Carol’s."

THE MYSTERY OF CHRISTMAS

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

We also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the generally accepted calendar year 2007, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great.

(Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere, and without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishes. By accepting these greetings you are accepting these terms.)

This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for herself or himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher.

This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.


ALL PRAISE TO PLANETEERS!
