Shoes<br />

Submitted by Trevor Saunders<br />

I was on vacation and<br />

doing the normal tourist<br />

stuff in New Orleans<br />

and went down to the<br />

waterfront. I was sitting<br />

on a bench enjoying<br />

the view of the water<br />

when a guy came up<br />

to me and started a<br />

conversation and all of<br />

a sudden offered me<br />

a bet.<br />

He said, “I bet you five<br />

dollars I can tell you<br />

where you got your<br />

shoes.”<br />

I was from several<br />

states away so I figured<br />

there was no way<br />

this guy could guess<br />

which shoe store at the<br />

local mall I had purchased<br />

my sneakers<br />

at. So I agreed to the<br />

bet.<br />

The guy put out his<br />

hand for us to shake<br />

on it and assured me<br />

he would pay if he was<br />

wrong and asked me<br />

to do the same. I did.<br />

He grinned and<br />

said,”Now I’m gonna<br />

tell you where you got<br />

your shoes. You got<br />

your shoes on your<br />

feet!.”<br />

Rice is great if you’re really hungry and want to eat 1,000 of something.<br />

Waiting for<br />

a Train<br />

Submitted by Trevor Saunders<br />

John had to attend a<br />

large convention in Chicago.<br />

For this particular<br />

trip, he decided to bring<br />

his wife, Maggie. When<br />

they arrived at their<br />

hotel and were shown<br />

to their room, John said,<br />

“You rest here while I<br />

register - I’ll be back<br />

within an hour.”<br />

So, Maggie lies down<br />

on the bed and just<br />

then, an elevated train<br />

passes by very close to<br />

the window and shakes<br />

the room so hard she’s<br />

thrown out of the bed.<br />

Thinking this must be a<br />

freak occurrence, she<br />

lies down once more.<br />

The man who survived both mustard gas and pepper spray is a seasoned veteran now.<br />

Out ‘n About at Garden Spot Farm<br />

Again a train shakes the<br />

room so violently, she’s<br />

pitched to the floor.<br />

Exasperated, Maggie<br />

calls the front desk and<br />

asks for the manager.<br />

The manager says he’ll<br />

be right up.<br />

The manager is skeptical<br />

but Maggie insists<br />

that it’s excessive.<br />

“Look, lie here on the<br />

bed - you’ll be thrown<br />

right to the floor!” exclaims<br />

Maggie.<br />

So they both lay down<br />

and wait for the train.<br />

Just then, John walks in.<br />

“What,” John says in an<br />

ominous tone, “is going<br />

on here?”<br />

Tyson, Layla, Karen, & Harper Abbott<br />

The manager replies,<br />

“Would you believe I’m<br />

waiting for a train?”<br />

Was the first forklift created to lift forks?<br />

Tree Story<br />

have the tree removed.<br />

The tree guy came<br />

He ask Steve what<br />

he thought and Steve<br />

responded, “It’s nice<br />

but what about the<br />

stump?”<br />

“I’m just a tree guy<br />

who cut down trees,<br />

if you want the stump<br />

removed, you will need<br />

to call a stump guy,” he<br />

responded.<br />

Steve found a highly<br />

recommend stump guy<br />

and he came and got<br />

the stump out.<br />

When he was finished<br />

Steve asked him about<br />

the hole.<br />

“I’m just a stump guy,<br />

I only remove stumps,<br />

I don’t fill in the holes,<br />

you’ll have to call<br />

a landscaper,” he<br />

replied.<br />

Steve called a landscaper<br />

and told him he<br />

was getting ready to<br />

leave for vacation but<br />

needed a hole filled<br />

and just get it done<br />

one way or another.<br />

When Steve got back<br />

from vacation he found<br />

the landscaper planted<br />

Captain, My<br />

Captain!<br />

Submitted by Trevor Saunders<br />

There’s this mighty sailing<br />

ship, a British frigate,<br />

cruising the Seven Seas,<br />

and one day the lookout<br />

shouts down from the<br />

crow’s nest, “Captain!<br />

Captain! There’s two<br />

pirate ships heading<br />

our way! They mean to<br />

attack! What should we<br />

do?”<br />

“Bring me my red shirt,”<br />

the captain responds.<br />

They bring him his red<br />

shirt, he puts it on, and<br />

leads his men into battle.<br />

It’s difficult, and there are<br />

a number of casualties,<br />

but they manage to beat<br />

back the pirates.<br />

That evening, after the<br />

survivors have gotten<br />

themselves bandaged up,<br />

they ask the captain why<br />

he called for his red shirt.<br />

“Because if I’m wounded<br />

and bleeding, I wouldn’t<br />

want the sight of my<br />

blood to destroy the<br />

morale of my men. But if<br />

I’m wearing my red shirt,<br />

no one will see it,” he<br />

explains.<br />

Well, the crew thought,<br />

“Wow. What a captain.”<br />

comes down from the<br />

captain! There’s ten pirate<br />

ships heading our way,<br />

and they mean to board<br />

us! What should we do?”<br />

The frightened crew turns<br />

to their captain, but he<br />

doesn’t flinch and he calls<br />

out, “Bring me my brown<br />

pants!”<br />

Why did the golfer bring two pairs of pants? In case he got a hole in one.<br />

Worse Case<br />

Submitted by Trevor Saunders<br />

Michael passed by his<br />

son’s bedroom and was<br />

astonished to see that<br />

his bed was nicely made<br />

and everything was<br />

picked up. Then he saw<br />

an envelope, propped up<br />

prominently on the pillow<br />

that was addressed to<br />

‘Dad.’<br />

With dread, he opened<br />

the envelope and read<br />

the letter.<br />

Dear Dad, It is with great<br />

regret and sorrow that<br />

I’m writing you. I had to<br />

elope with my new girlfriend,<br />

Stacy because I<br />

wanted to avoid a scene<br />

with Mom and you. I<br />

have found real passion<br />

with Stacy. I knew you<br />

would not approve of her<br />

because of all her piercings,<br />

tattoos, tight<br />

motorcycle clothes and<br />

the fact that she is much<br />

older than I am. It’s not<br />

only the passion, Dad,<br />

she’s pregnant. Stacy<br />

said that we will be very<br />

happy. She owns a<br />

trailer in the woods and<br />

has a stack of firewood<br />

for the whole winter. We<br />

share a dream of having<br />

many more children.<br />

Don’t worry Dad. I’m 15<br />

and I know how to take<br />

care of myself. Someday<br />

I’m sure that we will be<br />

back to visit so that you<br />

can get to know your<br />

grandchildren.<br />

Love, your son, Corey<br />

PS Dad, none of the<br />

above is true. I’m over<br />

at Tommy’s house.<br />

PPS I just wanted to<br />

remind you that there<br />

are worse things in life<br />

than a school report<br />

card. That’s in my center<br />

desk drawer. I love you.<br />

Call me when it’s safe to<br />

come home.<br />

Pat and Joe were out<br />

walking their dogs on a<br />

hot day, when they pass<br />

by a pub.<br />

Pat looks at his friend<br />

Joe and says “Let’s<br />

go in there for a quick<br />

drink.”<br />

Joe replies, “They won’t<br />

let us in with our dogs.”<br />

“Sure they will, just<br />

follow my lead.”<br />

Pat walks up to the pub,<br />

and sure enough the<br />

doorman tells him, “I’m<br />

sorry but I can’t let you<br />

in here with your dog.”<br />

Pat replies, “But I’m<br />

Joe sees this and<br />

decides to do the same<br />

thing. He walks up to<br />

the front door, but the<br />

doorman says, “Sorry<br />

sir, you can’t come in<br />

here with a dog.”<br />

Joe replies, “I’m blind<br />

and this is my seeing-eye<br />

dog.”<br />

The doorman responds,<br />

“I don’t think so buddy.<br />

You mean to tell me<br />

you have a bulldog for a<br />

seeing-eye dog?”<br />

Joe stops for a second<br />

looking confused, and<br />

says, “They gave me a<br />

bulldog?”<br />

New Golfer<br />

Submitted by Steve Simard<br />

Gabe, who just retired<br />

was given a set of golf<br />

clubs by his former<br />

co-workers.<br />

Thinking he’d try the<br />

game, he asked the<br />

local pro for lessons,<br />

explaining that he<br />

knew nothing whatever<br />

of the game.<br />

The pro showed Gabe<br />

the stance and swing,<br />

then said, “Just hit the<br />

ball toward the flag on<br />

the first green.”<br />

Gabe teed up his golf<br />

ball and smacked<br />

it straight down the<br />

fairway and onto<br />

the green, where it<br />

stopped inches from<br />

the hole.<br />

I recently met a limo driver who was in business for over 30 years. Despite trying his hardest, he didn’t get one<br />

single customer…all this time and nothing to chauffeur it.<br />

It’s our<br />

last year!<br />

I once owned a paper business but it folded.


When you can’t say ‘let’s just forget the whole thing’, you know crisis level has been reached.<br />

Christina Lavers<br />

Roopers Minot Ave Employee<br />

ROOPERSBEVERAGE.COM<br />

We are delighted to take a<br />

moment to acknowledge<br />

the outstanding service<br />

provided by Christina<br />

Lavers, one of our exceptional<br />

cashiers at the Minot<br />

Ave. Roopers. She has<br />

consistently demonstrated<br />

an unwavering commitment<br />

to excellence and has made<br />

a remarkable impact on our<br />

customers and team.<br />

With a warm smile and a<br />

friendly greeting, Chris creates<br />

an inviting atmosphere<br />

for all who walk through our<br />

doors. She possesses a deep<br />

knowledge of our extensive<br />

range of beverages, and<br />

her memory of customers’<br />

names and special orders is<br />

impressive.<br />

Jesse St Laurent states:<br />

“Chris’ hard work makes our<br />

jobs a lot easier. Her pleasant<br />

and welcoming smile<br />

starts everyone’s morning<br />

on Minot Ave. She just gets<br />

things done with no questions<br />

asked! Chris always<br />

leaves our store looking<br />

better than when she found<br />

it. We are truly blessed to<br />

have her and her dedication<br />

to Roopers and her team.<br />

We love you Chris!”<br />

Even after a tough year,<br />

Chris keeps smiling and<br />

that is one of the things we<br />

appreciate most about her.<br />

Chris, thank you for being<br />

you. We are proud of you<br />

and proud to have you on<br />

the Roopers team! CHEERS!<br />

I see they’re thinking about using drones to deliver magazines, that’ll raise some issues.<br />

LOVE YOUR VEHICLE ALL OVER AGAIN!<br />

Review on February 9th <strong>2023</strong>: “I am highly impressed with BDD! I had my car done today and it is absolutely<br />

immaculate. Abdirahman drove all the way out to Naples to pick up my car, and back again to drop it off. He was super<br />

nice and did an amazing job on my car-we will definitely be asking for him for all our car detailing needs! The business is<br />

excellent with communication and they definitely know how to keep customers happy. 10/10 would recommend!”<br />
