			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good morning crew,</p>
<p>I&#8217;m taking the day off tomorrow because the fourth falls on<br />
Saturday and I feel it is my patriotic duty to not contribute<br />
to the economy for at least one day in celebration of our<br />
country&#8217;s independence.</p>
<p>With my time off I think I&#8217;ll head downtown for The Taste<br />
of Chicago. Foolish? Yes. Maybe even stupid. It is the day<br />
before a major holiday and the second to last day of the<br />
fest. About half of the entire population of Chicago will<br />
be there. There will be lines of up to two and a half hours,<br />
and that is just to buy the food and drink tickets. The<br />
lines to buy actual food and drinks will probably be several<br />
hours each.</p>
<p>The lines for the bathrooms will be so long it will be more<br />
convenient to actually walk to the lake front and go right<br />
in Lake Michigan.</p>
<p>But! One way or another I&#8217;m going. If you don&#8217;t hear from me<br />
on Monday you can assume I succumbed to hunger or dehydration<br />
or I got trampled.</p>
<p>Excluding that, I&#8217;ll fill you in on any exciting details<br />
from the weekend next week!</p>
<p>Laugh it up,</p>

<p>&#8220;Nothing is easier,&#8221; he replied. &#8220;You ask a simple question<br />
which anyone should answer with no trouble. If the person<br />
hesitates, that puts you on the track.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What sort of question?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, you might ask him, &#8216;Captain Cook made three trips<br />
around the world and died during one of them. Which one?&#8217;&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good morning crew,</p>
<p>I did the most incredibly absent-minded thing this afternoon.<br />
While I was coming back to the office from lunch I decided<br />
to stop at the gas station and top off my tank.</p>
<p>I went in, asked to put ten dollars on pump number 12 and<br />
bought an instant lottery ticket and a pack of gum.</p>
<p>Then I went back to the truck, tucked the gum in the little<br />
bag containing the sandwich I bought earlier, scratched my<br />
ticket (bubkis) and drove back to work.</p>
<p>I think you can see the step I missed.</p>
<p>I had driven almost the two full miles back to the office<br />
by the time I realized what I had done. So I drove back to<br />
the gas station (another two miles) where, surprisingly no<br />
one had pumped my ten bucks, put in the gas and drove back<br />
to the office again (another two miles).</p>
<p>When all was said and done I probably ended up with the same<br />
amount of gas as I started with.</p>
<p>By the way, welcome to July!</p>

<p>The new bride had  spent two hours preparing her first break-<br />
fast. She sat down at the table, eagerly watching as her<br />
husband slowly savored each forkful.</p>
<p>&#8220;How was it, Honey?&#8221; she asked when he&#8217;d finished.</p>
<p>&#8220;Well,&#8221; he began thoughtfully, wiping his lips, &#8220;you probably<br />
could have beaten the eggshells a little longer. But on the<br />
whole, it was a good start.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good morning crew,</p>
<p>It&#8217;s bill time again, or as some people call it&#8230;payday.<br />
I shouldn&#8217;t complain too much about my bills. Sure, I<br />
don&#8217;t have much money, but I did just pay off my TV which<br />
I bought last November and I now owe less than three large<br />
on my credit card.</p>
<p>So with every paycheck I come that much closer to living<br />
within my means&#8230;until, of course, the next emergency<br />
comes up that requires me to dip into my savings or go to<br />
my credit card.</p>
<p>For example; the Renaissance Faire is coming up, and Lord<br />
knows what kind of emergency expenses that will involve.<br />
Plus, I am trying to pencil some plans for a long weekend<br />
to Lake Geneva (Wisconsin, not Switzerland).</p>
<p>You see how easy it is to get trapped in a vicious cycle?</p>

<p>While this is the perfect camper&#8217;s companion, we think EVERY<br />

BRIGHT, it turns into a blinking distress light with one<br />
additional click.</p>
<p>Tucked away in the hidden compartment are two stainless steel<br />
utensils (Spoon &amp; Fork) that are magnetized to prevent excess<br />
jostling inside the container. Ventilation holes allow moisture<br />
to escape after utensils are washed.</p>
<p>Just when you think that there&#8217;s nothing else.. how about a<br />
multi-use tool that has a can opener, corkscrew, knife and<br />
bottle opener.</p>
<p>Lightweight and durable, this multi-function tool will fit inside<br />
a backpack, glove compartment, golf bag and more.</p>

<p>My wife and I were having a very hypothetical discussion:<br />
In the unlikely event that Hollywood made a movie based on<br />
our lives, we wondered what stars would play us.</p>
<p>&#8220;Who would you pick to portray you?&#8221; she asked me.</p>
<p>I thought about it for a minute, then answered, &#8220;Dennis<br />
Quaid.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;In that case,&#8221; she said, &#8220;I&#8217;ll play myself.&#8221;</p>
<p>*&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;*</p>
<p>Sitting through fire safety and prevention programs can make<br />
anyone nod off. So the instructor tried to lighten the mood<br />
by going around the room asking where all the guests were<br />
from. &#8220;Burnt Mattress, Arkansas,&#8221; called out the friend<br />
sitting next to me.</p>
<p>&#8220;Burnt Mattress!&#8221; said the instructor, suppressing a laugh.<br />
&#8220;I&#8217;ve heard some unusual town names before, but never that<br />
one. Where&#8217;s it located?&#8221;</p>
<p>My friend shot back, &#8220;Right above Hot Springs.&#8221;</p>

<p>*Things That Never Happened On Star Trek*..</p>
<p>1. The Enterprise runs into a mysterious energy field of a<br />
type it has encountered several times before.</p>
<p>2. The Enterprise visits a remote outpost of scientists,<br />
who are all perfectly all right.</p>
<p>3. Some of the crew visit the holodeck, and it works<br />
properly.</p>
<p>4. The crew of the Enterprise discover a totally new life-<br />
form, which later turns out to be a rather well-known old<br />
life form wearing a funny hat.</p>
<p>5. The crew of the Enterprise are struck by a mysterious<br />
plague, for which the only cure can be found in the well-<br />
stocked Enterprise sick-bay.</p>
<p>6. The Captain has to make a difficult decision about a<br />
less advanced people which is made a great deal easier by<br />
the Starfleet Prime Directive.</p>
<p>7. The Enterprise successfully ferries an alien VIP from<br />
one place to another without serious incident.</p>
<p>8. An enigmatic being composed of pure energy attempts to<br />
interface to the Enterprise&#8217;s computer, only to find out<br />
that it has forgotten to bring the right leads.</p>
<p>9. A power surge on the Bridge is rapidly and correctly<br />
diagnosed as a faulty capacitor by the highly-trained and<br />
competent engineering staff.</p>
<p>10. The Enterprise is captured by a vastly superior alien<br />
intelligence which does not put them on trial.</p>
<p>11. The Enterprise is captured by a vastly inferior alien<br />
intelligence which they easily pacify by offering it some<br />
chocolate.</p>
<p>12. The Enterprise visits an earth-type planet called<br />
&#8220;Paradise&#8221; where everyone is happy all of the time. How-<br />
ever, everything is soon revealed to be exactly what it<br />
seems.</p>
<p>13. A major Starfleet emergency breaks out near the<br />
Enterprise, but fortunately some other ships in the area<br />
are able to deal with it to everyone&#8217;s satisfaction.</p>
<p>14. The Enterprise is involved in a bizarre time-warp ex-<br />
perience which is in some way unconnected with the Late<br />
20th Century.</p>
<p>15. Kirk (or Riker) falls in love with a woman on a planet<br />
he visits, and isn&#8217;t tragically separated from her at the<br />
end of the episode.</p>
<p>16. Counselor Troi states something other than the<br />
blindingly obvious.</p>
<p>17. The warp engines start going haywire, but seem to sort<br />
themselves out after a while without any intervention from<br />
boy genius Wesley Crusher.</p>
<p>18. Spock (or Data) is fired from his high-ranking position<br />
for not being able to understand the most basic nuances of<br />
one in three sentences that anyone says to him.</p>
<p>*&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;*</p>
<p>My daughter Marina worked in my law office while she attended<br />
graduate school. One morning a call came in for her. I said<br />
she wasn&#8217;t in yet and offered to take a message. The caller<br />
said she&#8217;d phone back later.</p>
<p>At 11:00 a.m., the caller tried again, and I reported that<br />
Marina had gone to lunch.</p>
<p>The last call came in at 3:30 p.m. &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry,&#8221; I said,<br />
&#8220;she&#8217;s left for the day. May I take a message?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes,&#8221; the caller replied. &#8220;How can I get a job with you?&#8221;</p>

<p>       desserts, Joe. Just deserts would be like, Gobi,<br />
       Sahara, etc. But you knew that, right?</p>
<p>       OH Joe&#8230; &#8220;just deserts?&#8221; Are you referring to<br />
       the Sahara or the Gobi..or just &#8220;the Painted<br />

<p>I received several other emails similar to these, but less<br />
polite, so I didn&#8217;t include them. But I feel it is my<br />
responsibility to set the matter straight on this matter.</p>
<p>A brief search of the dictionary produced the following<br />
entry&#8230;</p>
<p>desert n. Something that is deserved or merited, especially<br />
a punishment.</p>
<p>This word goes back to the Latin word &#8216;deservire&#8217; which<br />
means &#8220;to devote oneself to the service of&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Fortunately, &#8216;desserts&#8217; and &#8216;deserts&#8217; are homonyms, so no one<br />
will know you&#8217;ve been using the wrong word all this time. I<br />
know this isn&#8217;t exactly amusing, but I find it hilarious!</p>

us to speak in front of the class on a topic picked by our<br />

benefits of drinking liquor. Alcohol, he insisted, warded<br />
off colds, kept you alert, and even made you steadier on<br />
your feet.</p>
<p>&#8220;Good job,&#8221; said our instructor when he finished. &#8220;Only one<br />
thing: Your topic was the benefits of drinking liquids, not<br />
liquor.&#8221;</p>

<p>Well, I survived&#8230;barely. I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;m cut out for<br />
this kind of sadism any more. I could handle the 600 jumping<br />
jacks. I struggled through the 300 push ups. I even managed<br />
the 300 sit ups. But the fifty squat thrusts just about did<br />
me in. I have never been so close to vomiting from exhaustion<br />
in my life. And then things started to get hard.</p>
<p>But&#8230;I guess it&#8217;s a better way to spend a Monday night than<br />
sitting at home, playing video games and drinking beer&#8230;what<br />
am I, crazy?</p>
<p>By the way&#8230;all of those sit ups, push ups and jumping jacks<br />
were not done in a row. They were broken up into sets, so it&#8217;s<br />
really not as hard as you think.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good morning crew,</p>
<p>Welcome to a new week, folks, and welcome to summer! In<br />
case you didn&#8217;t notice, yesterday was the solstice. We&#8217;re<br />
in it now.</p>
<p>Hopefully you had a good weekend. Once again I managed to<br />
spend more money than I intended. Somehow it just seems to<br />
leak out of my pockets when I&#8217;m not looking, but you can&#8217;t<br />
have fun without spending a few drachmas. Am I right?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s going to be a long week for me. I&#8217;ll be pretty much<br />
living at the gym over the next six days, so I&#8217;ll fill you<br />
in on the weekend details tomorrow. I actually have to do<br />
some work today so let&#8217;s get to it!</p>
<p>Laugh it up,</p>

<p>The district attorney was cross-examining the murderess on<br />
the witness stand.</p>
<p>&#8220;And so after you had poisoned the coffee and your husband<br />
sat at the breakfast table partaking of the fatal dosage,<br />
didn&#8217;t you feel any qualms? Didn&#8217;t you feel the slightest<br />
pity for him knowing that he was about to die and was wholly<br />
unconscious of it?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes,&#8221; she answered. &#8220;Come to thik of it&#8230;there was just a<br />
moment when I sort of felt sorry for him.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And, when was that?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;When he asked for the second cup.&#8221;</p>

<p>Since he runs a pawnshop, I decided to ask a friend of mine<br />
to appraise my grandfather&#8217;s violin. &#8220;Old fiddles aren&#8217;t<br />
worth much, I&#8217;m afraid,&#8221; he explained.</p>
<p>&#8220;What makes it a fiddle and not a violin?&#8221; I asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;If you&#8217;re buying it from me, it&#8217;s a violin. If I&#8217;m buying<br />
it from you, it&#8217;s a fiddle.&#8221;</p>

me he was really something special.&#8217;</p>
<p>Mike: &#8216;To tell the truth, I&#8217;m really disappointed in him.<br />
The guy who sold him to me said I could teach him to sing<br />
like a bird.&#8217;</p>
<p>Jimmy: &#8216;What? Let me get this straight&#8230; You bought a fish<br />
because you thought you could teach him to sing like a bird?&#8217;</p>
<p>Mike: &#8216;Well, yeah. After all, you know, he&#8217;s a parrot fish.&#8217;</p>
<p>Jimmy: &#8216;Now listen, Mike, while you might be able to teach<br />
a parrot to sing, you&#8217;re never going to get anywhere with a<br />
parrot fish.&#8217;</p>
<p>Mike: &#8216;That&#8217;s what you think! It just so happens this fish<br />
CAN sing. The thing is, he&#8217;s terribly off-key and it&#8217;s<br />
driving me crazy. Do you know how hard it is to tuna fish?&#8217;</p>
