Two UNC* grads were working on a house. The one who was nailing down siding, would reach into his nail pouch, pull out a nail and either toss it over his shoulder or nail it in.
The other grad, figuring this was worth looking into, asked, "Why are you throwing those nails away?"
The first explained, "If I pull a nail out of my pouch and it's pointed toward me I throw it away because it's defective. If it's pointed toward the house I nail it in!"
The second got completely upset and yelled, "You moron! The nails pointed toward you aren't defective! They're for the other side of the house!"

You may not remember much from your World History class, but you probably at least remember that the nations of Europe fought it out for a long time to see who was going to be Number One. For many years, their biggest way to fight it out was with their big navies. So, if a ship from England saw a ship from France, you could expect some fireworks. Of course, the way you knew what country a ship was from was that flag they flew from the top of the mast - their colors. When they would see a ship approaching on the horizon, they usually lowered their colors until they could see whether that other guy was a friend or an enemy. But occasionally there was a ship that approached those encounters in a radically different way. There were a few courageous captains who would give a simple six-word order to their crew, "Nail our colors to the mast!" But you could just hear the first mate saying, "Captain, that means we can't lower our colors, no matter what." To which the captain would say something like this - "That's right."

The Bible claims to be the Word of the only true God. In addition to historical, archaeological, and scientific proofs, there are numerous internal proofs. No such evidences exist for other "sacred writings." The Bible was written during 1,600 years by 40 prophets, most of whom lived in diverse cultures, at different times in history, yet who never contradict but complement each other. For the Qur'an, Muslims must take the word of
Muhammad, just as the Book of Mormon rests solely upon Joseph Smith's word. But every biblical prophet is confirmed by 39 other prophets. - - Dave Hunt

Dear Friends,
Goodbye for now with jocundness for both you

Your Amigo, Confrere & Sidekick, Howdy (probably spurious)
P.S. A bill collector came to my house the other day,
Two UNC* girls were talking to each other and one couldn't help but notice how pretty and beautiful the others skin was. So she asked her outright what made her skin so soft and beautiful.
"Well.. once a week I fill a bathtub up with milk and just soak in it."
So the UNC student went to a farm and spoke to the farmer. "I'd like a lot of milk."
"How much?" asked the farmer.
"Well quite a lot because I'm going to soak in it."
He asked, "Pasturized?"
"No...just up to my neck."
*Please see "comments" for additional
information.
I have had a lot of young women complain to me
about a condition they find rampant in young men these days. I guess I will call it "commitment phobia." Now, this guy's willing to show interest, he's willing to date you, charm you, agree with you, spend money on you, and then you reach this level of mutual compat - ibility and that's good. And then, you're on the edge of commitment and he's gone. I hear it's pretty frustrating. I met a beautiful woman myself many years ago and we spent a lot of time together. We found that we agreed on all the important things. We reached a place of affection for each other and agreement with each other, so we were married - right? No.
Choosing to disbelieve in something without a commitment to coming to that disbelief by way of sound reasoning. The burden of proof is equally significant for both belief and disbelief. To ignore this is to address reality irresponsibly and foolishly.

A sheriff walks into a saloon and shouts for everyone's attention. "Has anyone seen Brown Paper Jake?"

1) A mansion I am For many, many things. I can live for a very long time. As I grow, I wear more jewelry; However, my jewelry is hidden. Only when I die Do others find How old I've grown And just where my jewelry lies.
2) In your hand I shall rest, As your eyes aren't the best. I walk along showing you where to go, After all I've been trained to know. On four like a chair, You follow me closely until I bring you there. What am I?
3) Which vegetable is never sold tinned, frozen, freeze dried, cooked or anything else other than fresh?

This account is widely known and was included in most school history textbooks, until recent changes caused it to be deleted from many books because it is not "politically correct".
During the French and Indian war at the Battle of the Monongahela, young Colonel Washington was engaged in a fierce skirmish with the Indians. An easy target in his bold red coat, he crisscrossed the battlefield carrying General Braddock's orders to the troops. The Indian warriors later acknowledged that they were targeting all officers--and particularly Washington--in the bright garb. Yet Washington survived.
There were eighty-six British and American officers involved in the battle; sixty- three of them died. Colonel Washington was the only officer on horseback who was not killed, and later, the Indians testified that they repeatedly shot at him, and were surprised that he never fell. They believed he was protected by an invisible power and that no bullet, bayonet, arrow or tomahawk could harm him.
Years later, the Indian chief sought Washington out in order to tell him what had happened in the battle. The Chief said, "I am a chief and ruler over my tribes. I have traveled a long and weary path that I might see the young warrior of the great battle. [On that day] I called to my men and said, 'Quick, let your aim be certain, and he dies.' Our rifles were leveled,
rifles which, but for you, knew not how to miss--'twas all in vain, a power mightier far than we, shielded you. I am come to pay homage to the man who is the particular favorite of Heaven, and who can never die in battle."
Washington himself later wrote to his brother John, "By the all- powerful dispensations of Providence, I have been protected beyond all human probability or expectation; for I had four bullets through my coat, and two horses shot under me, yet escaped unhurt, although death was leveling my companions on every side of me!"
This is what the Lord says, He who made the earth, the Lord who formed it and established it -- the Lord is His Name: Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.
1) I have eyes but I see nothing. I have ears, but I hear nothing. I have a mouth, but cannot speak. I always will look just as I look now. If I am young, I will stay young. If I am old, I will remain old. What Am I?
2) Name at least 10 parts of the human body that are only 3 letters long. You cannot use slang.
3) Late afternoons I often bathe. I'll soak in water piping hot. My essence goes through my see through clothes. Used up am I; I've gone to pot.
You may have observed what Steven Pinker has
dubbed the "euphemism treadmill." A euphemism is the substitution of a mild or vague expression for one that is perceived to be blunt or offensive (for example, the replacement of "to die" with "to pass away"). The euphemism treadmill is the process by which, over time, a common euphemism becomes so identified with the word it has replaced that it loses any power to shield from offense. One example cited by Wikipedia as an illustration is the phrase "concentration camp." This euphemism was originally used by the British in the early twentieth century to make a camp of civilian prisoners sound mundane. During the Second World War, the phrase became so inseparably linked to the Nazi death camps that it lost all euphemistic value.

Take the best medicine of all for what ails you -- laughter:

weapon,
and that is laughter." --Mark Twain "What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul." -- Yiddish Proverb "Laughter is an instant vacation." -- Milton Berle "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people." -- Victor Borge

The Bible claims to be the Word of the only true God. In addition to historical, archaeological, and scientific proofs, there are numerous internal proofs. No such evidences exist for other "sacred writings." The Bible was written during 1,600 years by 40 prophets, most of whom lived in diverse cultures, at different times in history, yet who never contradict but complement each other. For the Qur'an, Muslims must take the word of
Muhammad, just as the Book of Mormon rests solely upon Joseph Smith's word. But every biblical prophet is confirmed by 39 other prophets. - - Dave Hunt

A UNC* student buys a ticket and wins the lottery. He goes to Raleigh to claim it and the man verifies his ticket number. The UNC student says, "I want my $20 million."
The man
replied, "No, sir. It doesn't work that way. We give you a million today and then you'll get the rest spread out for the next 19 years."
The UNC student said, "Oh, no. I want all my money right now! I won it and I want it."
Again, the man explain that he would only get a million that day and the rest during the next 19 years.
The
UNC student, furious with the man, screams out, "Look, I want my money! If you're not going to give me my $20 million right now, then I want my dollar back!"

Now here's a memory for your summer vacation scrapbook. You got kissed by a dolphin. No thank you. But it happens to people every day at Sea World, this park where you can see whales and fish and seals do these amazing tricks. Those dolphins are really something. They will jump through hoops (I wish we could get kids to do that), they'll dance on their tails, and oh yeah, did I mention jumping out of the water and kissing tourists? But if you want to understand why they do all this neat stuff, you have to watch what they do after each trick. They swim around the pool and straight for the guy with the bag. You know what's in that bag. Fish! Yummy fish! If you want a dolphin to do something, give him a fish and he'll do it again! Men are a lot like that...
Directors of a newly commissioned airport in Thailand are finding themselves plagued with an interesting problem: there are people everywhere. But this is not to say the problem is too many travelers; the problem is that there are too many people who are not traveling anywhere.
In addition to the number of travelers passing through Suvarnabhumi Airport each day--roughly 100,000--there are more than 100,000 people visiting the ultra-modern airport each day--with no intention whatsoever of getting on a plane. They are there to take pictures, explore the buildings, and eat their sack lunches.
"So many people are coming for sightseeing, and we're pleading with them to stop," said the president of Airports of Thailand. "They're eating here and there, parking their cars in a mess." In the beginning, airport directors were happy to see people familiarizing themselves with the place, learning their way around, and generally taking pride in the new airport. But as one official notes, "It's no longer familiarization--it has become a picnic."

1) What is one thing that is lighter when it's full, but heavier when it's empty?
2) I am neither inside the house, nor outside the house. Clearly you can see through my little
charade, because no house seems complete without me. What am I?
3) Without a partner, I sit here mutely, My grace and beauty for you to reckon. Bright head above a regal neck, soft curves, And promise of my rich voice do beckon.
I'm inevitably hollow, the fretful type, But with practice, I could be your soul mate: If you hold me just right, I'll resonate your spirit In faultless pitch, your song to elevate.
4) While I am in air, I am not in oxygen. I am also in water, but not in hydrogen. I am necessary in all animals, but you won't find me in the zoo. Look in all brains and you'll find me there too. What am I?
5) What unusual property do the words FLOUR, TERN, and THIRSTY have in common?
6) My first three letters are a term in golf, While my second, third, and fourth are drawings. My first four are less than a whole, And all of me is a celebration. What am I?
7) Though my beauty is becoming, I can hurt you just
the same. I come in many colors. You will always know my name. Some love me for one reason. Some may dislike me just as well. More than one of any color of me will surely always sell. What Am I?

You sit there, staring at the phone for forty-five minutes. There's this girl you really want to ask out, but every time you try to pick up the phone to call her, you freeze. Finally, you realize she probably isn't going to call you, and the phone isn't going to call her all by itself. You
start to punch in her number. Are you still afraid? Yes. But courage is not the absence of fear, it's the disregard of it! So here goes!
Universal belief in a Supreme Being is still as persistent as ever. A worldwide poll taken in 1991 has the global figure for atheists at just 4.4 percent. Another category titled "other non-religious" added a further 16.4 percent (agnostics in the "don't know" camp probably account for most of these). This leaves nearly 80 percent of the world's population professing belief in some sort of God.

When Congressman Mark Foley sent those dastardly e-mail letters to House Pages, many (who are much wiser than I) called for the Head Majority Leader in the House - Rep. Denny Hastert - to
resign along with Congressman Foley.
In light of this new policy and in view of the anti-women and anti-family viewpoints in the Virginia Senatorial race (Jim Webb vs. George Allen) by Democrat Jim Web, I would like to request - no demand - that Nancy Pelosi and Senator Harry Reed resign immediately along with any member of their party
that was aware of such scandalous novels by Democrat Jim Web.
Investigations and congressional hearings should also start within 3 days. This is not a Party issue (Democrat vs. G.O.P.) nor a conservative vs. liberal issue but a precedent set by Mark Foley (who resigned and immediately began counseling), C.N.N., C.B.S., A.B.C., N.B.C.,
The New York Times, The Washington Post and others.

taliate?
1) Other than being colors, what do the words orange, silver and purple have in common?
2) When Jacob's sons made a second trip to Egypt, what food did they bring with them as a gift for Joseph?
3) Pronounced as one letter, And written with three, Two letters there are, And two only in me. I'm double, I'm single, I'm black blue and grey, I'm read from both ends, And
the same either way.
4) a. Who prayed for a drought? b. Who prayed for a drink of water? c. Who prayed for a son?
A man brought a limp dog into the Veterinary Clinic. As he lay the dog on the table, the doctor pulled out her stethoscope, placing it on the dog's chest.
After a moment or two, the Vet shook her head sadly and said, "I'm sorry, sir but your dog has passed away."
"What?" screamed the man. "How can you tell? You haven't done any testing on him or anything. I want another opinion!"
With that, the Vet turned and left the room. In a few moments, she returned with a Labrador Retriever.
The Retriever went right to work, checking the poor dead dog out thoroughly. After a considerable amount of sniffing, the Retriever sadly shook his head and barked, "Woof! Woof!".
The Veterinarian then took the Labrador out and returned in a few moments with a cat, who also checked out the poor dog on the table. As had his predecessor, the cat sadly shook his head and went, "Miaow, Miaow."
He then jumped off the table and ran out of the room. The Veterinarian handed the man a bill for $600...
The dog's owner went ballistic.
"$600! Just to tell me my dog is dead? This is outrageous!"
Again, the Vet shook her head sadly and
explained, "If you had taken my word for it, it would have only been $50, but no, you wanted testing... So with the Lab Work and the Cat Scan..."
A UNC grad* was having some physical problems and his doctor told him that he had to drink warm water one
hour before breakfast. At the end of a week he returned and the doctor asked if he was feeling better. The man said that he actually felt worse.
"Did you drink warm water an hour before breakfast each day?"
"No," replied the grad, "All I could do was
about 15 minutes!"
For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

There were 540 passengers aboard that September evening, sailing from Athens to an Aegean Island. An hour out, the wind came up and the temperature suddenly
dropped. Five hours into the voyage, passengers felt the ferry's engines surge, and most of them assumed they were getting close to their destination. They were wrong. The crew was frantically trying to steer clear of this small, rocky island, two miles from their destination. Tragically, the ferry plowed right into those rocks. It took only 38 minutes to sink. Rescue vessels got there quickly, but eighty people died that night, and it did not have to happen. There was a functioning lighthouse, sitting atop that rock, warning vessels away. It could be seen for several miles around. For some reason, the ferry just kept heading straight for the rocks. MORE!!!

A UNC grad stood on the side of
the road hitch hiking on a very dark night in the middle of a storm. The thunder was rolling and no cars passed. The storm was so strong, he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him. Suddenly he saw a car come towards him and stop.
The man, without thinking about it, got in the car and closed the door to
realize that nobody was behind the wheel. The car started slowly. He looked at the road and saw a curve ahead. Scared, he started praying, and begged for his life. He hadn't come out of shock, when just before he hit the curve, a hand appeared through the window and moved the wheel. The man, paralyzed in terror, watched how the hand appeared every time before a curve.
He gathered his strength, got out of the car and ran to the nearest town. Wet and in shock, he ran into...

4) This is a most unusual paragraph. How quickly can you find out what is wrong with it? It's so usual, you would think nothing is wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It's unusual, though. Study it. What is so unusual about it? Do you know?
In the little town of Wittenberg, Germany, on this day, October 31, 1517, no one seemed to notice the priest nailing his challenge to debate on the church door; but within the week, copies of his theses would be discussed throughout the surrounding regions; and within a decade, Europe itself would be shaken by his simple act.

Take the best medicine of all for what ails you -- laughter:

without springs--jolted by every pebble in the road." ~Henry Ward Beecher "Laughter is a tranquilizer with no side effects." --Arnold Glasow "Laughter is by definition healthy." --Doris Lessing "If somebody makes me laugh, I'm his slave for life." --Bette Midler "The human race has one really effective
weapon,
and that is laughter." --Mark Twain "What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul." -- Yiddish Proverb "Laughter is an instant vacation." -- Milton Berle "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people." -- Victor Borge

The Bible claims to be the Word of the only true God. In addition to historical, archaeological, and scientific proofs, there are numerous internal proofs. No such evidences exist for other "sacred writings." The Bible was written during 1,600 years by 40 prophets, most of whom lived in diverse cultures, at different times in history, yet who never contradict but complement each other. For the Qur'an, Muslims must take the word of
Muhammad, just as the Book of Mormon rests solely upon Joseph Smith's word. But every biblical prophet is confirmed by 39 other prophets. - - Dave Hunt

P.S. A programmer is someone who solves a problem you
didn't know you had in a way you don't understand.
1) Without looking at a calendar, within a minute name a boy's name using 5 consecutive 1st letters of 5 consecutive months.
2) My first is a number, my second another, And each, I assure you, will rhyme with the other. My first you will find is one-fifth of my second, And truely my whole a long period reckoned. Yet my first and my second, (nay, think not I cozen), When added together will make but two dozen. How many am I?
3) A man took his horse to the emergency room. The vet decided to operate on the poor animal immediately. He told the man that whether the animal died during the operation or survived, he would charge $500. The horse did not survive the operation and the man did not pay anything. Why not?

A young Technician and his General Manager board a train headed through the mountains on its way to Wichita. They can find no place to sit except for two seats right across the aisle from a young woman and her grandmother.
After a while, it is obvious that the young woman and the young tech are interested in each other, because they are giving each other looks.
Soon the train passes into a tunnel and it is pitch black. There is a sound of a kiss followed by the sound of a slap. When the train emerges from the tunnel, the four sit there without saying a word.
The grandmother is thinking to herself, "It was very brash for that young man to kiss my grand - daughter, but I'm glad she slapped him."
The General manager is setting there thinking, "I didn't know the young tech was brave enough to kiss the girl, but I sure wish she hadn't missed him when she slapped and hit me!"
The young woman was sitting and thinking,
"I'm glad the guy kissed me, but I wish my grandmother had not slapped him!"
A UNC football player was visiting a Yankee relative in Boston over the holidays. He went to a large party and met a pretty co-ed. He was attempting to start up a conversation with the line, "Where do you go to school?"
"Yale," she replied.
The UNC student took a big, deep breath and shouted, Find out what he said...
On a recent flight, a UNC* grad kept peering out the window. Since it was totally dark, all she could see was the blinking wing-tip light. Finally, she rang for the flight attendant.
Years ago, we were associated with a ministry that was able to acquire a rambling old home for its offices. It was a great help and a lot of work to get it in shape. Thankfully, lots of friends pitched in with some volunteer help. So we were able to move in, but one big job remained. The outside still looked a little shabby. And the problem was that our staff didn't have the time or the ability or the equipment to do it right. Well, along comes a Christian brother who is a painter. He has the time, the ability, and the equipment. Here's what he said: "I'll make you a deal.
You get the paint, get some help, tape up all the trim, and I'll do the rest." So he offered to do the job on a simple basis: "You get it ready and I'll do the job." Actually, I know someone else who works like that.
Think of it--humiliation and agony. This was the path Jesus chose with which to reach out for you and for me. You see, this thing we call sin, but which we so tragically minimize, breaks the grandeur for which we were created. It brings indignity to our essence and pain to our existence. It separates us from God...

An efficiency expert concluded his lecture with a note of caution. "You don't want to try these techniques at home."
"Why not?" asked somebody from the audience.
"I watched my wife's routine at breakfast for years," the expert explained.
"She made lots of trips between the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying a single item at a time. One day I told her, 'Hon, why don't you try carrying several things at once?'"
"Did it save time?" the guy in the audience asked.
"Actually, yes," replied the expert. "It used to take her 20 minutes to make breakfast. Now I do it in seven."
A very large, old, building was being torn down in Chapel Hill, N.C. to make room for a new dorm. While working on the 9th floor, two construction workers found a skeleton in a small closet behind the elevator shaft. They decided that they should call the police. When the police arrived they directed them to the closet and showed them the skeleton fully clothed and standing upright. They said, "This could be Jimmy Hoffa or somebody really important."
Two days went by and the construction workers couldn't stand it any more, they had to know who they had found. They called the police and said, "We are the two guys who found the skeleton in the closet and we want to know if it was Jimmy Hoffa or somebody important."
The police said, "It's not Jimmy Hoffa, but it was somebody kind of important."
"Well, who was it?"
"The 1956 UNC* National Hide-and-Seek Champion."

I remember a time when it seemed quite obvious to me that God was what I wanted. I understood what Pascal meant by the God-shaped vacuum in my heart. And I knew Saint Augustine's words to be true: our hearts are restless until they find their rest in Him. But what I had grasped cognitively, I had not grasped practically; the hole seemed only partially filled and my heart was not at rest. I wanted to want God. I knew it was God that I ultimately
wanted, and yet I was sickened with the suspicion that I had not found Him fully because I didn't want Him enough. And so I wrestled: Do I really believe? Do I fully trust in Christ's atonement? Am I truly sorry for my sins? Am I seeking with all my heart? How can I make myself want God more?

Take the best medicine of all for what ails you -- laughter:
"A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon
without springs--jolted by every pebble in the road." ~Henry Ward Beecher "Laughter is a tranquilizer with no side effects." --Arnold Glasow "Laughter is by definition healthy." --Doris Lessing "If somebody makes me laugh, I'm his slave for life." --Bette Midler "The human race has one really effective
weapon,
and that is laughter." --Mark Twain "What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul." -- Yiddish Proverb "Laughter is an instant vacation." -- Milton Berle "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people." -- Victor Borge
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a
time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance. (King Solomon)

The Bible claims to be the Word of the only true God. In addition to historical, archaeological, and scientific proofs, there are numerous internal proofs. No such evidences exist for other "sacred writings." The Bible was written during 1,600 years by 40 prophets, most of whom lived in diverse cultures, at different times in history, yet who never contradict but complement each other. For the Qur'an, Muslims must take the word of
Muhammad, just as the Book of Mormon rests solely upon Joseph Smith's word. But every biblical prophet is confirmed by 39 other prophets. - - Dave Hunt

Four important things to KNOW:
1) For ALL (Americans, Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Hindus,
Brazilian, Mormons, Methodist, French, etc. ) comes (arrives)
to the Father (with GOD in Heaven) EXCEPT BY (through)
ME (no other name).
This wonderful loving GOD gives you the choice - - - (Rev.
3:20)
{Please note that church membership, baptism, doing good
things, etc. are not requirements for becoming a Christian -
however they are great afterwards!!!}
Jesus said, "Wide is the gate and broad is the road that
leads to destruction (Hell, damnation, eternal punishment),
and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow
the road that leads to life
(Heaven, eternal happiness, forever with God), and only a few find it. --Matthew 7:13-14
