Fwd: New Grads Celebrating
Three Women…go down to Mexico one night to celebrate college graduation.
Apparently someone slipped something into their drinks, because they woke
up in jail, only to find that they are to be executed in the morning,
though none of them can remember what they did the night before.
The first one, a redhead, is strapped in the electric chair and is asked
if she has any last words. She says, "I just graduated from Trinity Bible
College and believe in the almighty power of God to intervene on the behalf
of the innocent." They throw the switch and nothing happens. They all
immediately fall to the floor on their knees, beg for forgiveness, and release
her.
The second one, a brunette, is strapped in and gives her last words. She
said, "I just graduated from the Harvard School of Law and I believe in the
power of justice to intervene on the part of the innocent." They throw
the switch and again, nothing happens. Again they all immediately fall to
their knees, beg for forgiveness and release her.
The last one (you knew it was coming), a blonde, is strapped in and says,
"Well, I’m from the University of Tennessee and just graduated with a
degree in Electrical Engineering, and I’ll tell ya right now, y’all ain’t gonna
electrocute nobody if you don’t plug this thing in."

A Friend Named Will
today is the 13th year of my friends death.
here some pictures of him, such a fun guy to hang out with, he was just barely 21 when he was killed
ive always wondered how different things would be if he was alive, i feel bad because i think how things would be different for me, and now how his life would be. what things would he have done. how many ladies he have on his arms, yeah he was a real ladies man….jerk with his ways with the ladies…lol
i first met him when i was 15 and he was killed 10-10-1997 on his way to work, i look at the date and i am still shocked at how long ago it was but it dosent feel like its been that long, i know it must feel that way for others
he was the best person i know, i hope that everyone he ever met knows how awesome he was and how lucky they are to have know this guy, its a shame because i can not come up with the words to describe his epicenes
i wanted to make this post longer, i wanted to make a bang for him but i guess i fail. i can only hope that there will be people that will come across this entry and take a few extra minutes to think about lost friends, or if you have not lost any friends to take a minute and drop a close friends a phone call, email, letter, text or something to let them know that you think there “epic”
hell even treat them out to a meal or something because you never know if it will be your last chance to do so

BLOOD CLOTS & STROKE INDICATORS
Important – please read! (the life you save may be someone you love)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blood Clots/Stroke – They Now Have a Fourth Indicator, the Tongue
I will continue to forward this every time it comes around!
STROKE: Remember the 1st Three Letters…. S. T. R.
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
During a BBQ, a woman stumbled and took a little fall – she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) .she said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.
They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Jane went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.
Jane’s husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital –
(at 6:00 pm Jane passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Jane would be with us today. Some don’t die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.
It only takes a minute to read this…
A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke…totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough…
RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Thank God for the sense to remember the ‘3’ steps, STR . Read and Learn!
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
S *Ask the individual to SMILE.
T *Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (i.e. It is sunny out today.)
R *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.
If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call emergency number immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

Great Pick-Me-up
Fourth Place:
A man
bumps into a woman in a hotel lobby and as he does,
his elbow goes into her breast.
They are both quite startled.
The man
turns to her and says, ‘Ma’am,
if your heart is as soft as your breast,
I know you’ll forgive me.’
She replies,
‘If your penis is as hard as your elbow,
I’m in room 221.
———————————————————————————————–
Third
Place
:
One night, as a couple lays down for bed,
the husband starts rubbing his wife’s arm.
The wife turns over and says
‘I’m sorry honey, I’ve got a gynecologist
appointment tomorrow and I want to stay fresh.’
The husband, rejected, turns over.
A few minutes later,
he rolls back over and taps his wife again.
‘Do you have a
dentist appointment tomorrow too?’
————————————————————————————————
Runner Up:
Bill worked in a pickle factory.
He had been employed there for a number of years
when he came home one day to confess to his wife
that he had a terrible compulsion.
He had an urge to stick his penis
into the pickle slicer.
His wife suggested
that he should see a sex therapist to talk about it,
but Bill said he would be too embarrassed.
He vowed to overcome the compulsion
on his own.
One day a few weeks later,
Bill came home and his wife could see
at once that something was seriously wrong.
‘What’s wrong, Bill?’ she asked.
‘Do you remember that I told you
how I had this tremendous urge to
put my penis into the pickle slicer?’
‘Oh, Bill, you didn’t’ she exclaimed.
‘Yes, I did.’ he replied.
‘My God, Bill, what happened?’
‘I got fired.’
‘No, Bill.
I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?’
‘Oh…she
got fired too.’
———————————————————————————–
Winner:
A couple had been married for 50 years.
They were sitting at the breakfast table one morning
when the wife says,
‘Just think, fifty years ago we were sitting here at
this breakfast table together.’
‘I know,’ the old man said.
‘We were probably sitting here
naked as a jaybird fifty years ago.’
‘Well,’ Granny snickered.
‘Let’s relive some old times.’
Where upon,
the two stripped to the buff and sat down at the table.
‘You know, honey,
‘ the little old lady breathlessly replied,
‘My nipples are as hot for you today
as they were fifty years ago.’
‘I wouldn’t be surprised,’ replied Gramps.
‘One’s in your coffee and the other is in your
oatmeal
