    Peter loves to drink at the local bar, but his wife disapproves of this.

    One night, he's at the bar and he gets extremely drunk.

    He tries to stand up, but immediately falls to the floor.

    He tries this a few more times, but each time he falls to the floor.

    People offered to help him, but he said no each time.

    He finally ended up dragging himself home and sneaking into bed, thinking his wife would never catch him.

    The next morning, Peter's wife says, "Pete, you bloody worthless idiot, no good drunkard!

    You were at the bar last night drinking again!"

    Peter was confused. "How did you find out?"

    "The bar called. You left your wheelchair there."

     

     

     

    Now that's funny!

  2. You can bet that if the NY Times  requested the information to run a scare piece "OHMYGAWDALLTHESEPEOPLEWWATTOSHOOTYOU!!!!" the police commissioner would turn over all the unredacted information,  complete with hat size, in a heartbeat.

    i agree that will help as well , it seems the lefts indoctrination has succeeded in our educational system and we , the "silent majority" are now the minority and our silence has bitten us in the A$$ , we believed in our system and our elected officials and way too many other things that seemed to be ...our constitution , our rule of law , all things that have been eroded and infiltrated by the commies that took over the democrat's party , you are right we need to make our voices heard but we also need to fight back on the things that are poisoning our society , before it comes to picking up arms if possible , life is really short as i lived it , we dont need another revolution in this country but we dont need to be taken over from within either - or by illegal invasion , 

     

     

    It's bitten us in the posterior because we, collectively,  sat on them for too long while we watched the opposition actively pursuing its agenda. We allowed them to take control of the language while we chuckled at what we thought of as gibberish,  we failed to make the time to go to city council meetings when anti-civil rights proposals were on the agenda, only a handful of us regularly write or email our elected officials. 

     

    Time for all of us to get off our complassencies and politely,  peacefully, and powerfully make our voices heard

    only way that will change is if we vote with our dollars and refuse to see the productions that offend us

     

    The only way it will change is if we write,  and write,  and write letter,  after letter, after letter,  and not form letters,  not vulgar rants, but firm and well reasoned letters,  telling them why we won't be going to see their productions.

  5.  

     

    My brother-in-law was a lay minister, so when his sister wanted a small, casual wedding, she asked him to officiate. He had never performed a marriage ceremony before, so he decided to ask his pastor for advice.

     

    "My sister has asked me to marry her," he began, "and I'm not sure what to do."

     

    The minister answered, "Try telling her you just want to be friends."

  6. Robert "Bob" White was drafted into the Army in 1943 and would ultimately find himself serving as a communications lineman with the 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 17th Airborne Division.

     

    On Christmas Eve 1944, White flew across the English Channel and landed in France. His unit moved through the snow towards the sound of distant artillery fire to help quell the last major German offensive operation of World War II, The Battle of the Bulge.

     

    White would suffer minor wounds during the battle leading to him being awarded the Purple Heart. He also witnessed the worst of the Nazi war machine, helping to liberate a forced labor camp near Essen, Germany. These memories would lead to a lifelong struggle with PTSD after the war ended.

     

    In 2018, more than 70 years after the end of WWII, White was awarded a long overdue Bronze Star for his actions during the Battle of the Bulge.

  7. "Colonel Edward "Ed" Shames was the last surviving officer of Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division. A unit that would be made famous by the miniseries Band of Brothers.

     
    Trained at Toccoa, Shames would make his first combat jump as an NCO into Normandy on D-Day. For his actions in Normandy he would earn a battlefield commission to second lieutenant.
     
    After D-Day he would lead his men through Operation Market Garden, the Battle of the Bulge, and ultimately be the first platoon into Hitler's "Eagles Nest".
     
    Colonel Edward D. Shames, age 99, passed away peacefully at home on December 3, 2021."

    I mean, when am I ever going to need 3/4" and 1" benders (I'll keep the 1/2"), let alone all of the Greenlee knockout sets up to 2", long 1" auger bits, hole saws up to 4" and a myriad of other stuff.

     

    The day after you get rid of it.
