Busy Weekend

Boy, we did a lot this weekend. Friday I took a half day off work to go to Lagoon with the fam. Turned out to be EXTREMELY crowded. More so that would normally be expected. So, did the Lagoon-A-Beach thing for a while, rode a couple rides, then watched one of the shows.

Saturday, got up early and went to Public Affairs training with the Red Cross. It was a lot of fun but 6 hours of training.... Anyway, now I can talk to the media effectively (not really but we can pretend.)

Got home and decided that I wanted to see Star Wars III. WAY AWESOME MOVIE!!!! I don't think I will ever view Darth Vader the same way again for the rest of my life. When I watch him do the nasty stuff he does, like kill OB1, it'll be "Poor Vader".... So, really recommend it. It was a very hard movie to watch because it was very dark and evil but it tied up a lot of loose ends from the movies and books.

Sunday was normal church activities. So, that brings us to today which is turning into a Monday. You know the type. The ones where about mid-morning, you wish you were home... hiding under your bed.

So, JOTD... This one was forwarded from my wife. Enjoy...

Joke of the Day:
An older, white haired man walked into a jewelry store one Friday evening with a beautiful young gal at his side. He told the jeweler he was looking for a special ring for his girlfriend.
The jeweler looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000 ring and showed it to him. The old man said, "I don't think you understand, I want something very special." At that statement, the jeweler went to his special stock and brought another ring over. "Here's a stunning ring at only $40,000," the jeweler said. The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body trembled with excitement. The old man seeing this said, "We'll take it." The jeweler asked how payment would be made and the old man stated, by check. " I know you need to make sure my check is good, so I'll write it now and you can call the bank Monday to verify the funds and I'll pick the ring up Monday afternoon," he said. Monday morning, a very teed-off jeweler phoned the old man. "There's no money in that account."
"I know", said the old man, "but can you imagine the weekend I had?"
