Friday Funnies - Speed



A doctor goes out and buys the best car on the market, a
brand new Ferrari GTO. It is also the most expensive car in
the world, and it costs him $500,000. He takes it out for a spin and stops at a red light.

An old man on a Moped, looking about 100 years old, pulls up
next to him. The old man looks over at the sleek shiny car
and asks, "What kind of car ya got there, sonny?"

The doctor replies, "A Ferrari GTO. It cost half a million
dollars!" "That's a lot of money," says the old man. "Why does it cost
so much?" "Because this car can do up to 250 miles an hour!" states
the doctor proudly. The Moped driver asks, "Mind if I take a look inside?"

"No problem," replies the doctor.

So the old man pokes his head in the window and looks
around. Then, sitting back on his Moped, the old man says,
"That's a pretty nice car, all right... but I'll stick with
my Moped!" Just then the light changes, so the doctor decides to show
the old man just what his car can do. He floors it, and
within 30 seconds, the speedometer reads 150 mph.

Suddenly, he notices a dot in his rear. Then,
WHHHOOOOOOSSSSSHHH! Something whips by him going much
faster! "What on earth could be going faster than my
Ferrari?" the doctor asks himself. He floors the accelerator
and takes the Ferrari up to 175 mph.

Then, up ahead of him, he sees that it's the old man on the
Moped! Amazed that the Moped could pass his Ferrari, he gives it
more gas and passes the Moped at 210 mph.

WHOOOOOOOSHHHHH!

He's feeling pretty good until he looks in his mirror and
sees the old man gaining on him AGAIN!

Astounded by the speed of his old guy, he floors the gas
pedal and takes the Ferrari all the way up to 250 mph.

Not ten seconds later, he sees the Moped bearing down on him
again!

The Ferrari is flat out, and there's nothing he can do!

Suddenly, the Moped plows into the back of his Ferrari,
demolishing the rear end.

The doctor stops and jumps out and, unbelievably, the old
man is still alive. He runs up to the mangled old man and
says, "Oh my gosh! Is there anything I can do for you?"

The old man whispers, "Yeah ... unhook my suspenders from
your side mirror."

Happy Friday! For more funnies, join Kim at Homesteader's Heart!

A Memorial Day Reflection

  Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls.  Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts  run through my mind.  The journey of loss takes on various emotions.  The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness.  In a split second, I would forget he departed forever.  I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home.  My mind is realistic now.  He's not coming back.  There will be no more times of sitting on the porch swing together on the front deck staring at the moon and the stars.  He would tell me all he knew about the majestic night sky. I have so much I wish I could tell him, like the excitement of seeing our oldest grandchild make a decision to follow Jesus and get baptized on Mother's Day!  And our little Amy, 11 years old, I wish he could have seen her on stage receiving her induction to the National Honor Society. Our daughters have their own ...

Mama's Lipstick

I always wished I could do things with my mom like shop in the mall, share makeup secrets or go to the movies and watch romantic comedies.  My wish never materialized.     My mama behaved like a tomboy.   She loved baseball and pitched with a strong right arm.   She could care less about the latest fashion or the latest movies featured on the big screen.   She never polished her fingernails.    One day after elementary school, I walked into the house to find my mom all dolled up in front of the bathroom mirror, foundation crème, powder, eyebrow pencil and rouge all over the counter sink.  “Who are you?” I asked, thrilled to see my mama putting on the Ritz.  Makeup in place and blotted, she immediately took it off.  “I don’t like the way it feels,” she exclaimed. She retired in Arizona and protected her dry lips with a light rose lipstick, the color of natural lips, a step above ChapStick.  She wore it a few tim...

Book Review of Biblical Minimalism and Give Away

What does minimizing look like?  To the empty nester it may mean downsizing real estate.  To the co-dependent, it may mean pitching some toxic friendships they tend to collect.  I thought I had a handle on Biblical minimalism, but I wasn’t even close.  Biblical minimalism is much more than cleaning out a drawer and discarding unwanted things into a box to take to the thrift store. In her book, Biblical Minimalism, Cheryl E. Smith defines Biblical minimalism as “a complete, whole person release of anything unlike Jesus, a letting go of everything that hinders us from following Him wholeheartedly and single- mindedly , and a relinquishing of all that brings us under bondage to this earthly, very temporary life.” The author gives us a visual of a whole pie that is divided into eight slices.  Each slice describes our lives with areas to analyze to see if pruning or adjustment is needed.  I won’t name them all, but one example is the “emotional ...
