4. Sorry to hear the news.
You'll be fine soon enough though. Your perspective will change just a bit each day, til it morphs into something entirely different than it is now. If my experience matters at all.

Cheers.

:hi:

16. It's one of my favorite websites...funny and informative articles.
I recommend Swaim's videos, called 'Cracked TV'...they are hilarious.
Enjoy, and I hope you feel better soon. Getting dumped sucks. :pals:

17. That sucks.
I read something today about loss that was very interesting and very true. "The only way to get to the other side of this is to go through it". I know it isn't much consolation, but it makes some kind of sense and I find that logic can help in times like this. :hug:

25. How about some one-liners?
• A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. I have a work station.
• A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.
• Children: You spend the first 2 years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 16 years telling them to sit down and shut-up.
• Why do they lock gas station bathrooms? Are they afraid someone will clean them?
• The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good ideas!
• Some cause happiness wherever they go. Others whenever they go.
• The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.
• If a parsley farmer is sued, can they 'garnish' his wages?
• The shinbone is a device for finding furniture in a dark room.
• Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won't expect it back.
• One nice thing about egotists: they don't talk about other people.
• I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
• What if there were no hypothetical questions?

27. By coincidence, a friend just sent these puns less than 15 minutes ago
Edited on Sun Nov-22-09 12:43 AM by abq e streeter
Hope they bring a smile or two---------------------
1. Two vultures board an airplane, each carrying two dead raccoons. The stewardess looks at them and says, "I'm sorry, gentlemen, only one carrion allowed per passenger."
2. Two boll weevils grew up in South Carolina. One went to Hollywood and became a famous actor. The other stayed behind in the cotton fields and never amounted to much. The second one, naturally, became known as the lesser of two weevils.

3. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, but when they lit a fire in the craft, it sank, proving once again that you can't have your kayak and heat it, too.

4. A three-legged dog walks into a saloon in the Old West. He slides up to the bar and announces: "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw."

5. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root canal? He wanted to transcend dental medication.

6. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But why?" they asked, as they moved off. "Because," he said, "I can't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer."

7. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to a family in Egypt and is named "Ahmal." The other goes to a family in Spain; they name him "Juan." Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to his birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal. Her husband responds, "They're twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."

8. These friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop. Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that Hugh, and only Hugh, can prevent florist friars.

9. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him ....what? A super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

10. And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to friends, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
and lastly, been having trouble copying and sending youtubes, but if you can find an old song there from 1966 called Red Rubber Ball, give it a listen. It's not funny, but hopefully will remind you that you can be strong and move on, and you WILL...here's the last verse:
The story's in the past, with nothing to recall
I've got my life to live, and I don't need you at all
That roller-coaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears
That's all I'm gonna spend
And I think it's gonna be all right
Yes, the worst is over now
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
