Saturday Morning Funnies #17



Welcome truth seekers to another edition of Funnies. Sit back and give your funny bone a work-out.

We start off with Libya and Charlie Sheen.  What an interesting combination.

Overkill is the effect dear Charlie is having.

Now the International Justice System is showing their true colors.


The UN is only now condemning Iran, Egypt, Yemen, Syria, Jordan, Libya. Any one want to know the real reason they didn't before?

The Tribe does it again. Here is their weekly take.

The Tribal Updates exposes the kippa peril and Peace Now's nightmare




And now a message from our sponsor.

Squirrel Club for Men.


Call 555-FOR-HAIR for a quote.

For this funny I found it at The Liberty Ledger
President's Day

I was eating lunch today with my 8 year-old granddaughter when her mom asked her, “What is tomorrow?”

She said, “It’s President’s Day.”

Her mom asked, “What does that mean?”

I was waiting for something profound.

She said, “President’s Day is when Obama steps out of the White House, and if he sees his shadow, we have two more years of unemployment.”
Your weekly English Lesson. This week the word Politics


Remember the Girls in Green


Reason #1 why to buy some cookies:

Never EVER say no to girl scout cookies!




Remember your manners.


NEVER do what these 2 pieces of human trash did to a lovely 9-year old.

Lucky that 9-year old wasn't my kid.

Just have fun with your family.


Have A Great Week!!!

It Is That Time Of The Year Again.

When the little girls dressed in green come through your neighborhood selling their delicious cookies.

The first record of cookie sales by Candy Cane, a girl scout within the Mistletoe Troop in Muskogee, Oklahoma occurred on December 1917. In 1922, the Girl Scout magazine The American Girl suggested cookie sales as a fund-raiser and provided recipes. In 1933, Girl Scouts in Philadelphia organized the first official sale, selling homemade cookies at the windows of local utility companies. The first Girl Scout cookie recipe was a sugar cookie. In 1936 the national organization began licensing commercial bakers to produce cookies.

During World War II the Girl Scouts sold calendars rather than cookies, due to shortages of flour, sugar, and butter.

Starting in 2009, many of the cookie varieties were either made smaller or had fewer cookies per box, without a corresponding drop in price. In particular, there are now fewer cookies in a box of Thin Mints, Do-si-dos, and Tagalongs, and the Lemon Chalet Creme cookies are now smaller. The Girl Scouts have suggested that this change was necessary to compensate for rising cost of ingredients.
This year my family went a bit overboard and bought $80.00 worth of cookies (I've hidden a box of Thin Mints in the freezer).

If the girls don't come to you, you can locate where to buy cookies here.   When you order your cookies, you can order boxes to be sent to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.  In doing so you bring a taste of home to our fighting men and women.

Although the cookies are good remember they are cookies and are fattening, so enjoy but in moderation.

Girl Scout cookies are kosher.  They are Dairy, but made under Rabbinical Supervision.

When the girls come to your door be polite, be courteous, be generous and buy a great amount! 

You'll be glad you did.

That time of the year again!

Although the snow is on the ground and the temperature is below freezing, I know that spring will be here soon. For it is that time of year again. The time when the young girls come around and start selling their cookies.






I went over my limit this year and bought $50 worth. But they are so good.

So when the girls come around, be generous and buy some cookies.
