The barbers were both afraid to start a conversation,for fear it would turn to politics.As the barbers finished their shaves, the one who had McCain in his chair reached for the after shave, McCain was quick to stop him saying, "No thanks, my wife Cindy willsmell that and think I've been in a whorehouse."The second barber turned to Barack and said 'how about you?

Celebrating Their 40th Wedding Anniversary
2008-12-06 17:40:00 A married couple in their early 60's was celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant. Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.' The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband.' The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands. The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.' The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish. So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!...the husband became 92 years old.

Gotta Pee
2008-12-04 17:28:00 Two women friends had gone for a girl's night out.Both were very faithful and loving wives; however they had gotten over-enthusiastic on the Bacardi Breezers.Incredibly drunk and walking home, they needed to pee; so they stopped in the cemetery.Neither had anything to wipe with so one of them thought she would take off her panties and use them.Her friend however was wearing a rather expensive pair of panties and did not want to ruin them.She was lucky enough to squat down next to a grave that had a wreath with a ribbon on it, so she proceeded to wipe with that.After the girls did their business they continued on home.The next day one of the woman's husband was concerned that his normally sweet and innocent wife was still in bed, hung over; so he phoned the other husband and said: 'These girl nights out have got to stop!

Needing to get to the other side, the first man prayed: 'God, please give me the strength to cross the river.' Poof! .... God gave him big arms and strong legs and he was able to swim across in about 2 hours, having almost drowned twice. After witnessing that, the second man prayed: 'God, please give me strength and the tools to cross the river.' Poof! ... God gave him a rowboat and strong arms and strong legs and he was able to row across in about an hour after almost capsizing once. Seeing what happened to the first two men, the third man prayed: 'God, please give me the strength, the tools and the intelligence to cross the river' Poof! ... He was turned in to a woman.

Why Go To Church?
2008-11-29 04:59:00 A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. 'I've gone for 30 years now,' he wrote, 'and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all.' This started a real controversy in the 'Letters to the Editor' column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher: 'I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this. They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!...

Apples And Wine
2008-11-25 04:51:00 Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy. The apples at the top think something is wrong with them, in reality they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who is brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.

The Day The Chemicals Came Out The Toilet
2008-02-07 15:05:00 I love to clean my house. Always have. I love the fresh smell of pine sol mixed with clorox bleach and a freshly lit candle. Ummm. Yep, cleanliness is next to godliness.My love for mixing chemicals stemmed from my childhood. You see, my mother used to always have my sister and I help out with cleaning the house on Saturdays. We weren't allowed to sleep in late, we had to earn our keep!The only time it bothered me was when Bugs Bunny was on, then I cleaned up under duress.Because I did such a great job with cleaning the bathroom, that was usually my weekly assignment, my sister ran a mean vacuum. I hated that big noisy thing, and even today, I don't vacuum, my partner does.On this particular day, I wanted to mix Pine Sol, Comet, and Bleach together in the commode.

Black History Month Politics And Barack Obama
2008-02-07 00:35:00 February is Black History Month.As I try to speak over your applause, I realize that the normal Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass stories just won't do for me this time. I tend to be a realist, so I need to be able to draw a time line, a time line that I can relate to.I will mention the race riot of 1921 in Tulsa Oklahoma that destroyed the Black Wall Street. But, that's it. It was a travesty with lives lost, businesses and homes destroyed, the usual holocaust that has been woven through the American fiber. Now, I want to tell you what Black History Month really means to me.I grew up in the 60s and 70s, in Detroit. Turbulent times but, these historical times were viewed through the eyes of a child and then a teenager.In 1967 as a 6 year old I can remember living in Delray. Delray was in the southwest part of town, and pretty much away from the inner city. To some, Delray was like living in the country. But for me, I don't recall seeing looters, fires, and police.

More articles from this author:2008-02-05 00:45:00 Most bloggers blog for monetary purposes, or to just blog. There are some blogs that are not monetized. In some way, shape or form we promote, blog or have ads on our blogs that readers will click on and possibly purchase a product.Even on radio, television and magazines there are advertisements there that cause someone to get paid from it.As my readers, my gift to you is to inform you that certain posts are like commercial breaks. They are sprinkled in between honest to goodness articles, but the commercials are paying me to put them on my blog.This is my full disclosure, as I am hiding nothing.http://feeds.feedburner.com/Offbe atnewsandvideos http://www.google.com/reader/api/0/subscr iption/edit?s=feed%2Fhttp%3A%2F%2Ffeeds.f eedburner.com%2Foffbeatnewsandvideos1&i=n ull&ac=subscribe&t=offbeatnewsandvideos%2 0-%20Your%20Internet%20Overlord.
