Faster Dad<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
Three boys are in the<br />
schoolyard bragging of<br />
how great their fathers<br />
are.<br />
The first one says:<br />
“Well, my father runs<br />
the fastest. He can<br />
fire an arrow, and start<br />
to run, I tell you, he<br />
gets there before the<br />
arrow.”<br />
The second one says:<br />
“Ha! You think that’s<br />
fast! My father is a<br />
hunter. He can shoot<br />
his gun and be there<br />
before the bullet.”<br />
The third one listens<br />
to the other two and<br />
shakes his head. He<br />
then says: “You two<br />
know nothing about<br />
fast. My father is in<br />
sales. He stops working<br />
at 4:30 and he is<br />
home by 3:45!”<br />
Blind Date<br />
Submitted by Pam Ashby<br />
Once there was a<br />
girl who wanted a<br />
boyfriend. Her mom<br />
wanted to help her, so<br />
she set up a blind date<br />
for her daughter.<br />
When the girl got back<br />
from the date she said<br />
“That was the worst<br />
night of my life!”<br />
“Why is that?” her<br />
mom asked.<br />
“He owns a 1922 Rolls<br />
Royce!”<br />
“Isn’t that a good<br />
thing?”<br />
“He’s the original owner<br />
mom!”<br />

Out of This<br />
World<br />
Submitted by Mark Vaillancourt<br />
Steve, Jimbo and Tim<br />
were trying out for a<br />
new NASA experiment<br />
on sending civilians to<br />
different planets.<br />
First, they called Steve<br />
in and asked him a few<br />
questions.<br />
“If you could go to any<br />
planet, which planet<br />
would you want to<br />
go to and why?” the<br />
interviewer asked him<br />
as the interview drew<br />
to a close.<br />
After pondering the<br />
question, Steve answered,<br />
“I would like to<br />
go to Mars, because<br />
it seems so interesting<br />
with all the recent<br />
news about possible<br />
extraterrestrial life on<br />
the planet.”<br />
“Very good, thank<br />
you,” the man said,<br />
and told him that they<br />
would get back to him.<br />
Next, Jimbo entered<br />
the room and the interviewer<br />
asked him the<br />
same question.<br />
In reply, Jimbo said,<br />
“I would like to go to<br />
Saturn to see all of its<br />
rings.”<br />
He thanked Jimbo and<br />
told him they would get<br />
back to him.<br />
“I’m looking forward to seeing pie this Thanksgiving more than members of my<br />

“I used to be a heavy gambler. But now I just make mental bets. That’s how I lost<br />
my mind.” – Steve Allen<br />
Once Lori was walking<br />
along the beach thinking<br />
of the worst state<br />
of her life cycle. Her<br />
husband, Steve, asked<br />
her for divorce. As<br />
she was walking, she<br />
tripped over something<br />
in the sand. The woman<br />
picked the object up<br />
revealing a lamp.<br />
Lori rubbed the lamp<br />
and a genie appeared<br />
before her. “I will grant<br />
you three wishes,”<br />
the genie said “but<br />
whatever you wish for<br />
your husband will get<br />
double.”<br />
Lori thought and<br />
thought, then made her<br />
first wish, “I wish for 10<br />
million dollars.” POOF!<br />
The wish for ten million<br />
appears at the woman<br />
feet, some distance<br />
away 20 million dollars<br />
appears at Steve’s feet.<br />
Lori thinks again and<br />
makes her second<br />
wish, “I wish for a pile<br />
of diamonds three feet<br />
high!” POOF! A pile of<br />
diamonds appear at her<br />
feet, a pile of diamonds<br />
six feet high appears at<br />
her husband’s feet.<br />
Now, Lori thinks and<br />
thinks, ponders and<br />
ponders; finally she<br />
says to the genie “Now,<br />
whatever I wish for, my<br />
husband gets double?”<br />
The genie replies, “That<br />
is correct.”<br />
She makes her third<br />
wish, “I wish for you to<br />
scare me half to death.<br />

Thanksgiving<br />
Submitted by Tom Hill<br />
“Here I am 5 o’clock in the morning stuffing bread crumbs up a dead bird’s butt.”<br />
– Roseanne Barr<br />
‘Twas the night of<br />
Thanksgiving,<br />
but I just couldn’t sleep,<br />
I tried counting<br />
backwards,<br />
I tried counting sheep.<br />
The leftovers beckoned...the<br />
dark meat<br />
and white,<br />
but I fought the temptation<br />
with all of my<br />
might.<br />
Tossing and turning<br />
with anticipation,<br />
the thought of a snack<br />
became infatuation.<br />
So, I raced to the kitchen,<br />
flung open the door<br />
and gazed at the fridge,<br />
full of goodies galore.<br />

I gobbled up turkey and<br />

stuffing with gravy,<br />
green beans and<br />
tomatoes.<br />
I felt myself swelling so<br />

till all of a sudden, I<br />
rose off the ground.<br />
I crashed through the<br />

with a mouthful of<br />
pudding and a handful<br />
of pie<br />
But, I managed to yell<br />
as I soared past the<br />

I’ve heard it said that parties are all fun and games until<br />
someone calls the police. Then it is a new game; hide and<br />
seek. It made me wonder about all the different parties<br />
and how we celebrate. Whenever construction workers<br />
party, they always raise the roof. Did you ever notice how<br />
people always shuffle into a card party? If you invite an<br />
insomniac to your pajama party, you know they will be up<br />
for it. It is interesting that artillery men do not go to parties<br />
at all, they go to cannon-balls. Bottom line, we all know<br />
the feeling of partying Saturday and Sunday and feeling<br />
weakened.<br />
With Halloween having just passed a few days ago, I<br />
have heard some great stories about all the costumes<br />
people wore. This single guy dressed up as a skeleton,<br />
but was upset that he had no body to dance with. There<br />
was a man and woman who dressed up as barcodes and<br />
we later learned they were an item. Then there was the<br />
guy who dressed up as a knife and boy, did he look sharp.<br />
The funniest story of all was when a policeman accidentally<br />
arrested a judge who had dressed as a convict for a<br />
costume party. That cop learned never to book a judge by<br />
his cover.<br />
Farmer Tim and his lovely wife, Karen, of Mollyockett<br />
Farm love to party on the farm. “This year’s Halloween<br />
bash was wild and full of games,” Farmer Tim said.<br />
“Yeah, wild and full of game,” Karen added laughing,<br />
“because I stir-fried your game because you liked to wok<br />
on the wild side!” “We had one cow that dressed up as a<br />
knight,” Farmer Tim joked, “So we referred to him as ‘Sir<br />
Loin.’” Karen shared that another cow dressed up in pajamas,<br />
faked sleep, and then jumped up, uddering loudly,<br />
“I am a Bull-Dozer!” A few pigs dressed up as chefs and<br />
squealed that they were good at bacon, while another<br />
dressed up as a dinosaur and was Jurassic Pork. One of<br />
the chickens dressed up as a teacher and eggsplained<br />
that she was a Eggonomics Professor. It’s one yolk after<br />
the other with Farmer Tim and Karen!<br />
Gravestone Corrected and Rededicated<br />
Company F of the 19th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment, Cpl.<br />
Moses C. Hanscom from Danville (Auburn), captured the colors<br />
of the 26th North Carolina regiment of the Union lines during the<br />
Battle of Bristoe Station in Virginia on October 14, 1863 during<br />
the Civil War.<br />
His dedication and efforts earned him the Medal of Honor and<br />
was presented to him by Abraham Lincoln, January 1, 1864.<br />
Hanscom’s Gravestone located at Oak Hill Cemetery in Auburn,<br />
read he was a Medal of Honor recipient but his name was misspelled<br />
as Hansom.<br />
The City of Auburn, rededicated a new Gravestone with the correct<br />
spelling on the 154th Anniversary of his Heroic act. Dozens<br />
of people attended the Ceremony with Hanscom’s descendants.<br />
Descendants: Sharon Gray of<br />
Turner, her Cousin Jean Millett<br />
of Norway & Carol May of CA<br />
American Legion Post 153: Carol St.Pierre,<br />
Dan St.Pierre, Claire Poirier, Hugh Brown<br />
Jr., Steve Peterson, Donald Peck, David<br />
Jacobs-Pratt, Paul L’Heureux, & Jason Hall<br />
(Gray Post)<br />
Well, I guess I need to shut down<br />
all this party talk. Besides, I am<br />
on my way to the grand opening<br />
of the local bee farm. They are<br />
having a house swarming party,<br />
and I am hoping to get some free<br />
bees, so I gotta buzz off now.<br />
See you next month!<br />

Once a woman invited<br />
some people to dinner.<br />
At the table, she turned<br />
to their six-year-old<br />
daughter and said,<br />
“Would you like to say<br />
the blessing?”<br />
“I wouldn’t know what<br />
to say,” the girl replied.<br />
“Just say what you<br />
hear mommy say,” the<br />
woman answered.<br />

First Time<br />
Turkey<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
It was the first time<br />
Pam was eating<br />
Thanksgiving dinner<br />
without her family.<br />
Trying to re-enact the<br />
tradition, she prepared<br />
a dinner for herself<br />
alone. The next day,<br />
her mother called to<br />
see how everything<br />
went.<br />
“Oh, mother, I made<br />
myself a lovely dinner,<br />
but I had so much<br />
trouble trying to eat<br />
the turkey!” said the<br />
daughter.<br />
“Did it not taste good?”<br />
her mother asked.<br />
“I don’t know,” Pam<br />
said. “It wouldn’t sit<br />
still!”<br />

Black<br />
<strong>November</strong><br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
Some days, the best thing about my job is that the chair spins.<br />
When I was a young<br />
turkey, new to the<br />
coop, my big brother<br />
Mike took me out on<br />
the stoop.<br />
He sat me down, and<br />
spoke real slow, as<br />
he told me there was<br />
something that I had to<br />
know;<br />
His look and his tone I<br />
will always remember,<br />
when he told me of<br />
the horrors of Black<br />
<strong>November</strong>;<br />
“Come about August,<br />
now listen to me, each<br />
day you’ll be thick,<br />
where once you were<br />
thin, and you’ll grow a<br />
big rubbery thing under<br />
your chin.<br />
S<br />
And then one morning,<br />
when you’re warm in<br />
your bed, in’ll burst the<br />
farmer’s wife, and hack<br />
off your head;<br />
Then she’ll pluck out<br />
all your feathers so<br />
you’re bald’n pink,<br />
and scoop out all your<br />
insides and leave ya<br />
lyin’ in the sink,<br />
And then comes the<br />
worst part” he said not<br />
bluffing, “She’ll spread<br />
your cheeks and pack<br />
your rear with stuffing.”<br />
Well, the rest of his<br />
words were too grim<br />
to repeat, I sat on the<br />
stoop like a winged<br />
piece of meat.<br />
I decided on the spot<br />

that to avoid being<br />
cooked, I’d have to lay<br />
low and remain<br />
overlooked;<br />
I began a new diet<br />
of nuts and granola.<br />
High-roughage salads,<br />
juice, and diet cola.<br />
As they ate pastries,<br />
chocolates and crepes,<br />
I stayed in my room<br />
doing Jane Fonda<br />
tapes.<br />
I maintained my weight<br />
of two pounds and a<br />
half, and tried not to<br />
notice when the bigger<br />
birds laughed;<br />
But ‘twas I who was<br />
laughing, under<br />
my breath, As they<br />
chomped and they<br />
chewed, ever closer to<br />
death;<br />
Sure enough when<br />
Black <strong>November</strong> rolled<br />
around, I was the last<br />
turkey left in the entire<br />
compound;<br />

Pumpkin Pie<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
Jolene was only eight<br />
years old and lived<br />
way out in the country<br />
with her parents who<br />
rarely entertained<br />
any visitors. One day<br />
Jolene’s mother said<br />
that her father was<br />
bringing two guests<br />
home for Thanksgiving<br />
supper.<br />
After they had enjoyed<br />
the turkey, Jolene went<br />
to the kitchen to help<br />
her mother. She proudly<br />
brought out the first<br />
piece of pumpkin pie<br />
and gave it to her father,<br />
who then passed<br />
the plate to a guest.<br />
When Jolene came<br />
out with the second<br />
piece and gave it to<br />
her father, he again<br />
gave it to a guest. This<br />
was too much for the<br />
little girl. “It’s no use,<br />
Daddy,” she cried.<br />
“The pieces are all the<br />
same size.”<br />

In the US, about 280 million turkeys are sold for the Thanksgiving celebrations.<br />
Most folks believe that<br />
Ben Franklin discovered<br />
electricity with<br />
his famous kite<br />
experiment.<br />
Actually, a women<br />
made that discovery<br />
possible. The real<br />
story was that Ben<br />
Franklin was laying in<br />
bed with his wife one<br />
night, leaned over and<br />
whispered something<br />
in her ear.<br />
She told him to go fly a<br />
kite. The rest is history.<br />

Presidential Pardon of a Turkey<br />
The official “pardoning” of White House turkeys is an interesting White House<br />
tradition that has captured the imagination of the public in recent<br />
years. It is often stated that President Lincoln’s 1863 clemency to<br />
a turkey recorded in an 1865 dispatch by White House reporter<br />
Noah Brooks was the origin for the pardoning ceremony.<br />

Last Rites<br />
Submitted by Steve Simard<br />
A Catholic man is<br />
struck by a bus in a<br />
busy street. He was<br />
lying near death on the<br />
sidewalk as a crowd<br />
gathered.<br />
“A priest…... Somebody<br />
please get me<br />
a priest!” the man<br />
gasped. Long seconds<br />
dragged on but no<br />
one stepped out of the<br />
crowd.<br />
A policeman checked<br />
the crowd and finally<br />
yelled, “A PRIEST,<br />
PLEASE! Isn’t<br />
there a priest in this<br />
crowd to give this man<br />
his last rites?” Finally<br />
out of the crowd<br />
stepped a little old man<br />
in his mid 80’s.<br />

by family and friends. If you are thinking of<br />
advertising locally, the <strong>Digest</strong> is a great choice!<br />

“Mr. Policeman,” said<br />
the man, “I’m not a<br />
priest, I’m not even a<br />
Christian. But for 50<br />
years now, I’ve lived<br />
behind the Catholic<br />
Church on Dunn Avenue,<br />
and every night<br />
I hear their services.<br />
I can recall a lot of it,<br />
and maybe I can be of<br />
some comfort to this<br />
poor man.”<br />
The policeman agreed,<br />
and cleared the crowd<br />
so the man could get<br />
through to where the<br />
injured man lay. The<br />
old man knelt down,<br />
leaned over the man<br />
and said in a solemn<br />
voice:<br />

Applicants<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
Murphy applied for an<br />
engineering position at<br />
a firm based in Ohio.<br />
John applied for the<br />
same job and both<br />
applicants having the<br />
same qualifications<br />
were asked to take a<br />
test by the Department<br />
manager.<br />
Upon completion of<br />
the test both men only<br />
missed one of the<br />
questions.<br />
The manager went<br />
to Murphy and said,<br />
“Thank you for your<br />
interest, but we’ve<br />
decided to give John<br />
the job”<br />
Murphy: “Why would<br />
you be doing that? We<br />
both got 9 questions<br />
correct.”<br />
Manager: “We have<br />
made our decision<br />
not on the correct<br />
answers, but on the<br />
question you both<br />
missed.”<br />
Murphy: “And just how<br />
would one incorrect<br />
answer be better than<br />
the other?”<br />
Manager: “Simple,<br />
John put down on<br />
question # 5, “I don’t<br />
know”. You put down<br />
“Neither do I”.<br />

A little boy got lost at<br />
the YMCA and found<br />
himself in the women’s<br />
locker room.<br />
When he was spotted,<br />
the room burst into<br />
shrieks, with ladies<br />
grabbing towels and<br />
running for cover.<br />
The little boy watched<br />
in amazement and<br />
then asked, “What’s<br />
the matter, haven’t you<br />
ever seen a little boy<br />
before?”<br />

awards program was designed<br />
to identify, recognize<br />
and honor the best places<br />
of employment in Maine,<br />

economy, its workforce and<br />
businesses.<br />
Companies from across<br />
the state entered the twopart<br />

the Best Places to Work<br />
in Maine. The first part<br />
consisted of evaluating<br />
each nominated company’s<br />

and demographics.<br />
This part of the process<br />
was worth approximately<br />
25% of the total evaluation.<br />
The second part consisted<br />
of an employee survey to<br />
measure the employee<br />
experience. This part of the<br />
process was worth approximately<br />
75% of the total<br />
evaluation. The combined<br />
scores determined the top<br />
companies and the final<br />
rankings. Best Companies<br />
Group managed the overall<br />
registration and survey process<br />

But I would like something<br />
to eat.”<br />

“Sorry, sir,” said the<br />
bum. “I don’t smoke.”<br />
“Very well, then come<br />
with me to Atlantic<br />
City! I’ll stake you in<br />
the casino and perhaps<br />
you’ll win enough<br />
to get your life back on<br />
track.”<br />
“I don’t gamble either,<br />
sir. But I would still<br />
very much like a bite<br />
to eat.”<br />
“You want to eat?,”<br />
asked the wealthy<br />
man. “Alright, come<br />
home with me and<br />
have dinner with my<br />
family.”<br />
“That’s very kind of<br />
you, sir. Thank you!”<br />
“Not at all,” replied the<br />

man that doesn’t drink,<br />
smoke, or gamble.”<br />
