The Jump Shot

One day, two elderly men were talking about their favorite sport, basketball.

"I wonder if there'll be basketball in heaven?" Ed asked.

"Of course there will," Henson responded, "or it wouldn't be heaven."

Not long after that, Ed passed away; then, one night while Henson, was sleeping, Ed appeared in all his radiant glory- in a bright light at the foot of Henson’s bed. Henson was badly shaken.

"Calm down, Henson," Ed reassured his friend.

"Everything's going to be all right. I just came back to visit and to bring some good news and some bad news. "

Oops! and Mistakes!

2,574 views

One day an extremely upset newspaper subscriber stormed into a newspaper office waving the current edition, asking to see "whoever wrote the obituary column".

When referred to a young reporter, he stormed, "You can see I'm very much alive, and you've put me in the obituary column! I demand a retraction!"

Replied the reporter, "I never retract a story but I tell you what I'll do. I'll put you in the birth column and give you a fresh start."

I certainly have.

Some people will never admit their mistakes and worst, some people will never want to correct their mistakes the proper way.

Have you ever committed mistakes in your life?

One day a conversation took place between the husband and the wife.

The wife was not in a very happy disposition that morning and so she complained:

"You think so much of your old game you don't even remember when you were married."

The husband calmly replied: "Of course I do, my dear; it was the day I sank that 30-foot putt." Oops. Priorities!

Happy Father’s Day

"My father did not tell me how to live. He lived, and let me watch him do it," says Clarence Budinton Kelland.

This is why I am so careful. I know that my children may not believe 100% I say but they certainly believe 100% I do. The best thing I can leave my children is a good example.

To all the warriors out there:  Happy Father's Day!"

What is a Father?

1,403 views

Somebody wrote this material and I simply added a little side comments of my own.

What is a father?

A father is a person who is forced to endure childbirth without an anesthetic.

He growls when he feels good and laughs very loud when he is scared half-to-death. He needs to be a picture of strength even though he may be scared and sad from the inside.

A Short Elevator Ride

1,053 views

A career military man, who had retired as a Master Sergeant, was telling the new recruits how he handled officers during his years of service.

"It didn't matter a hoot if he was a full bird colonel, Major General, an Admiral, or what! I always told those guys exactly where to get off."

"Wow, you must have been something," the admiring young soldiers remarked. "What was your job in the service?"

"Elevator operator in the Pentagon."

No wonder. Now let’s go to the serious side of the story.

Control What You Think

Aboard a flight from L.A. to New York, Grandma Esther was taking her very first flight.

They had only been aloft a few minutes when the elderly lady complained to the stewardess that her ears were popping.

The girl smiled and gave the older woman some chewing gum, assuring her that many people experienced the same discomfort. When they landed in New York, Grandma thanked the stewardess.

"The chewing gum worked fine," she said, "but tell me, how do I get it out of my ears?"

Well obviously, grandma was not thinking.
