  1. Boys like bulldozers and dumptruck. make a cake clean out the back of the dump truck. cut some pieces and put in the back of the dump truck,Ice the cake and put crushed oreo cookies on top for dirt, give them a spoon and dig in! You could even use chocolate pudding as mud or for icing the cake. Good luck on your search

    Be sure and read to the bottom portion.....

     

    Just for this morning, I am going to smile when I see your face and laugh when I feel like crying.

    Just for this morning, I will let you choose what you want to wear, and smile and say how perfect it is.

    Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play.

    Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the si nk, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together.

    Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles..

    Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one if he comes by.

    Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second guess every decision I have made where you are concerned. Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them. Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys..

    Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you.

    Just! for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry.

    Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.

    Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.

    Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God has given me the greatest gift ever given.

    I will think about the mothers and fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore.

    And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing, except one more day..............

     

    Hi. I am a 29 year old father. Me and my wife have had a wonderful life together. God blessed us with a child too. Our daughter's name is Rachel, and she is 10 years old. Not long ago did the doctors detect brain cancer in her li ttle body. There is only one way to save her and that is an operation. Sadly we don't have the money for the operation. AOL and Zdnet have agreed to help us. The only way the y can help is this:

    If you send this email to other people, AOL will track this email and count how many people get it. Every person that opens this email and sends it to at least 3 people will give us 32c. Please help us. George Arlington

  3. Mr. Blaine is a very talented young man and his desire to do magic shows in every performance. I have watched the other magician Chris Angel and he is good, but I think David has more of the passion for the magic and that is why it is just amazing. Real or not he is talented.

  4. WE live in Dallas also and when I call they can never give me a time to pick it up, just sit it out and hope they come. I did talk to the gentleman who drives the truck and they have had issues with the truck breaking down and getting new routes etc. I think with all the building in Paulding the demand is too much for this one garbage company. They do need several trucks to help.

  5. My MIL lives in that subdivison and there are a few good ones, but last year not many people participated. There is a few houses that like to have yard sales every weekend. Maybe more people participated this year, I think they have 2 sales every year.

  6. We locked in our price on the 5th of this month got it at $1.13 a therm. With all the hooplah with regular gas we figured that natural would sky rocket too. Hopefully it won't go up any more, but who knows. Good luck

  7. I have had issues with a neighbor who has a dog that they kept chained up on a 5 ft chain running outside the basement into the yard. The dog has repeatedly gotten loose, nipped my son and about 5-6 months ago bit another child and an off duty officer shot it in the leg. Well the owners decided to put a fence inand it is 3 ft. X 5ft no kidding for not one dog, but 2. Well the other day the dogs were loose running rampid in the neighborhood. Well this morning going down my driveway the officer told me to grab my cell phone that the 2 dogs were loose. I grabbed that and my sons lucky bat! Dallas Police were called. I was told the owner opened the door and let one dog out, then let the other one out not on a leash, lazy idiot! DP came and I guess told them to put them up and then just left within minutes. I guess it is going to take someone getting mauled before some action is taken. My vent for the morning, just don't understand with a past history something isn't done, they don't deserve these dogs, they need a loving home with room to run and explore and not be pinned up in a small box.

  8. I think they use some sort of sonar to see so if you throw anything at them they are going to chase it thinking it is an insect. And as far as I know for 10 years they have been coming out catching mosquitoes and other insects I don't think they like us.

  9. There are always those idiots that are in a hurry! They need to be sent back to Drivers Ed and take the course over again and pay a hefty fine. Speed limit signs are there for a reason and it never fails when I am driving someone always gets up in my tail pipe because I am in a van. Always in a hurry! Leave 5 minutes early if your in a hurry will ya!

  11. We didn't try all those great ideas with the cheerios and food coloring, but you really need to be persistant and stick to it. I have 2 boys and when we started potty training, I woud take them up to the bathroom every 30 min, whether they did anything or not. They would get a sticker for a reward. After a week or two they were trained. Even with my oldest he loved to fish with Grandpa. Grandpa got a boat and we told him once he gets potty trained he could go out in the boat and fish with Grandpa and that helped as well. Lots of luck on your mission.

  12. We still have ours up as well, and I know what you mean about everyone being LAZY! I am the only one on my street that has a flag up. And only a few in our subdivison of 90 houses. These men and women are fighting and they need to know we are at home supporting them, even if it means to fly the RED WHITE and BLUE 24/7. God Bless them, we will keep our flag waving!

  13. I received several emails from my post yesterday and when I go to open them I get this message- NOT FOUND, the requested document was not found on this server. So with that said they were responses from mykidsmom and fasn8nmom, could you please repost your responses. Thanks! For those of you who didn't get to read it we are looking into getting a Sleep number bed and wanted to know who out there has one and what experiences good or bad with the product. Thanks for the input.

    Quick Thinking

    A senior citizen in Florida bought a brand new Mercedes convertible. He took off down the road, flooring it to 80 mph and enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left on his head.

     

    "This is great," he thought as he roared down I-75. He pushed the pedal to the metal even more. Then he looked in his rear view mirror and saw a highway patrol trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring.

     

    "I can get away from him with no problem"thought the man and he tromped it some more and flew down the road at over 100 mph. Then 110, 120 mph!

     

    Then he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old for this kind of thing." He pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the trooper to catch up with him.

     

    The trooper pulled in behind the Mercedes and walked up to the man "Sir," he said, looking at his watch. "My shift ends in 30 minutes and today is Friday. If you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

     

    The man looked at the trooper and said, "Years ago my wife ran off with a Florida state trooper, and I thought you were bringing her back."

     

    The trooper replied, "Sir, have a nice day."

     

     

     

    Cruise Control

    My family has a tradition of naming the cruise control on our cars. We were used to hearing my father proclaim, "Take it, Max," as he flipped on the cruise control during long trips in our station wagon.

     

    Recently, I was travelling with my parents in their new car when we hit a wide-open expanse of highway. My dad leaned back and said, "I think I'll let Tom drive for a while."

     

    "Tom who?" I asked.

     

    My mother translated for me: "Tom Cruise, of course."

  15. We need Driver's Ed back in the schools! Don't kids today have to have some type of class before getting a license? They need to do Defensive driving and Weather condition driving included in the class.There are a few adult drivers who need to be careful too. I was driving out of Dallas towards Hiram and I watched a guy in a Ford Explorer run 2 red lights. I thought I was seeing things when he did it the first time and the 2nd one was a complete shocker. He got to the intersection in Dallas where the old theatre was and McDonalds. I got in the left lane to turn and there were several cars in the straight lane to go towards Hiram and he gets over in the right lane and barely slows down and goes right on through the intersection. He could have easily caused an accident. I think adults need refresher courses in driving seems they seem to forget what a yield sign is or the right of way at stop signs. Even what a stop sign is, some don't even know what a blinker is! Sorry had to vent!

  16. Golf Meditations

    If you really want to get better at golf, go back and take it up at a much earlier age.

     

    Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually the beginning of the next group of three.

     

    No matter how bad you are playing, it is always possible to play worse.

     

    When your shot has to carry over a water hazard, you can either hit one more club or two more balls.

     

    A golf match is a test of your skill against your opponents luck.

     

    Every time a golfer makes a birdie, he must subsequently make two triple bogeys to restore the fundamental equilibrium of the universe.

     

    You can put "draw" on the ball, you can put "fade" on the ball, but no golfer can put "straight" on the ball.

     

    Don't buy a putter until you've had a chance to throw it.

     

     

     

     

     

    Ransom

    A Yuppie was sent a ransom note saying that he was to bring $50,000 to the 17th hole of the country club at 10 o'clock the next day if he ever wanted to see his wife alive again.

     

    He didn't arrive until almost 12:30. A masked man stepped out from behind some bushes and growled, "What the hell took ya so long ? You're over two hours late."

     

    "Hey ! Give me a break." whined the Yuppie. "I have a 27 handicap."

    Got Bugs?

    My husband works as a service technician for a large exterminating company.

     

    One of the rules of the company is that he has to comfirm each appointment by phone the night before his service call to that household.

     

    One evening he made such a call, and when a man answered the phone, he said, "Hi, this is Gary from A to Z Pest Control Company. Your wife phoned us."

     

    There was a long silence, and then my husband heard the man on the other end say, "Honey, it's for you....someone wants to talk to you about your relatives."
