random thoughts for monday february 15th, 2010

HOPE  YOU ALL HAD A GREAT VALENTINES DAY….I DID…I’LL TELL YOU ABOUT IT SHORTLY……

1.  but speaking of “valentine’s day”, let’s do our “today and yesterday” segment featuring actress KAREN VALENTINE…remember her?  she was the cute, perky, young lady that appeared in shows like “ROOM 222”, and she starred as “GIDGET” in the movie “GIDGET GROWS UP.”  she was also a regular on “THE HOLLYWOOD SQUARES” always trading barbs with PAUL LYNDE.  KAREN VALENTINE is now  63 years old…here’s a picture of KAREN when she was younger…

and here she is recently…..

2.  it was on this day in 2004 that JAN MINER died at the age of 86…you probably don’t know the name JAN MINER but you probably remember the lady named MADGE from the PALMOLIVE ads….JAN MINER played MADGE…remember this commercial from the 70’s?

3.  my favorite group ‘CHICAGO’, was formed on this day in 1967….yep, CHICAGO is 43 years old…and still touring…..here’s an early picture of “CHICAGO” and  current picture of the guys….the current picture of CHICAGO is with EARTH WIND AND FIRE when they toured together…..

4.  i had the most INCREDIBLE valentine’s day EVER…i got to spend the entire day with my beautiful wife JEANNIE.  my church services in HECLA AND HOUGHTON got cancelled, so i got to go to church in WARNER, then we went home for a big, then went to ABERDEEN to see the movie “VALENTINE’S DAY”, and then off for some shopping, and then a nice steak supper at BULLY’S.  then it was off to home to curl up on the couch and watch “THE INVENTION OF LYING” on pay per view…..PERFECT DAY WITH THE PERFECT WOMAN…….

5.  speaking of the movie “VALENTINE’S DAY”, it was the number one movie in the nation, and i beleive number one at carmike in aberdeen as well.  it was a very good movie….it had like 10 different couple’s stories, and they all sort of come together at the end.  i recommend this movie….

6.  the movie “THE INVENTION OF LYING” stars RICKY GERVAIS, and JENNIFER GARNER…it started out really really funny, but quickly turned into a theme of GERVAIS’S feeling of atheism, and his feelings that GOD doesn’t exist.  i didn’t appreciate that, so it kind of ruined the movie after that.

7.  today is ‘PRESIDENT’S DAY’…..a time to recognize the contributions of past u.s. presidents, and apparently their love of “MATTRESS SALES”.

8.  WALTER FREDERICK MORRISON, the inventor of the FRISBEE, has died in utah at the age of 90…he died of exposure when he got stuck on the roof and couldn’t get down….(not really)….he was carried to his final resting place by six golden retrievers……(man that’s low, even for me)

9.  sunday was valentine’s day….and lover’s hearts were racing…no wait, that’s their toyota’s……

10.  JOKES OF THE DAY:

Ole’s car was hit by a truck in an accident. In court, the trucking company’s lawyer was questioning Ole.
    “Didn’t you say, sir, at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine’?” asked the lawyer.
    Ole responded, “Well, I’ll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule, Bessie, into the…..”
    “I didn’t ask for any details,” the lawyer interrupted. “Just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine’?”
    Ole said, “Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road…”
    The lawyer interrupted again and said, “Judge, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question.”
    By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Ole’s answer and said to the lawyer, “I’d like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule, Bessie.”
    Ole thanked the Judge and proceeded. “Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn’t want to move. However, I could hear Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans. Shortly after the accident the Highway Patrolman, he came to the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her and saw her fatal condition he took out his gun and shot her right between the eyes. Then the Patrolman, he came across the road, gun still smoking, looked at me and said, ‘How are you feeling?’ Now what the hell would YOU say?”

OKAY, SOMETHING SHORTER ……

     After a nice dinner the two couples got up from the table. The ladies went into the kitchen and the men went into the family room.
    One of the men said to the other, “I think it is so wonderful how you call your wife, ‘honey pie’ and ‘sweet pea,’ and ‘sugar’ all the time.”
     The other man said, “Well to tell you the truth, four years ago, I forgot her name.”

HAVE A GREAT MONDAY EVERYBODY…
