I was a little kid,<br />
walking past my dad,<br />
who was relaxing in his<br />
recliner, with his shoes<br />
off, socks on, feet up,<br />
drinking a beer watching<br />
wrestling on TV.<br />
I got a whiff of his<br />
smelly feet, and I said,<br />
“Oh my God, Dad,<br />
your feet smell really<br />
bad.” My dad waved<br />
his hands at me, like<br />
he was casting a spell<br />
on me, and said, “I put<br />
a hex on you, that your<br />
feet will smell worse<br />
than mine!” I’m all,<br />
“Yah right.”<br />
Years later, I’m working<br />
a full time job, running<br />
around on my feet all<br />
day. I get home, take<br />
my shoes off, and my<br />
feet smelled so bad.<br />
It dawned on me right<br />
then, my dad,<br />
...was a powerful<br />
wizard.<br />

Ender<br />
Submitted by Stephanie<br />
Arsenault<br />
Back in medieval times<br />
there lived a knight.<br />
Big, brave was he! He<br />
was so confident he<br />
could single-handedly<br />
defeat any enemy and<br />
end whatever uprising<br />
befell the king.<br />
He decided his last<br />
name should be Ender.<br />
So anytime he rode up<br />
on his gallant steed,<br />
and his formidable<br />
foes would shout, “Behold,<br />
who thoust goeth<br />
there?” He would reply,<br />
with total sured confidence,<br />
“I, Sir Ender!”<br />
Artwork<br />

A kindergarten teacher<br />
was observing her<br />
classroom of children<br />
while they drew. She<br />
would occasionally<br />
walk around to see<br />
each child’s artwork.<br />
As she got to one little<br />
girl who was working<br />
diligently, she asked<br />
what the drawing was.<br />
The girl replied: “I’m<br />
drawing God.”<br />
The teacher paused<br />
and said: “But no one<br />
knows what God looks<br />
like.”<br />
Without missing a beat<br />
or looking up from<br />
her drawing the girl<br />
replied: “They will in a<br />
minute.”<br />

Thirsty<br />
Submitted by Stephanie<br />
Arsenault<br />
A guy was walking<br />
through the Sahara desert,<br />
desperate for water,<br />
when he saw something<br />
far off in the distance.<br />
Hoping to find water,<br />
he walked towards the<br />
image, only to find a little<br />
old man sitting at a card<br />
table with a bunch of<br />
neckties laid out on it.<br />
The guy asked, "Please,<br />
I'm dying of thirst, can I<br />
have some water?"<br />
“Write it down,” he said, “and I think you’ll figure it out.” So I wrote it down: “ID10T”<br />
And I really used to like Eric, damn kid!<br />
Providing a warm & comfortable<br />
home for our residents.<br />
The old man replied, "I<br />
don't have any water,<br />
but why don't you buy a<br />
tie? Here's one that goes<br />
nicely with your shirt."<br />
The guy shouted, "I don't<br />
want a tie, you idiot! I<br />
need water!"<br />
"OK, don't buy a tie. But<br />
to show you what a nice<br />
guy I am, I'll tell you that<br />
over that dune there,<br />
about five miles down,<br />
there is a nice restaurant<br />
my brother runs. Go<br />
over that way, they'll give<br />
you all the water you<br />
want."<br />
The guy thanked him<br />
and walked away<br />
towards the dune and<br />
eventually disappeared.<br />
Three hours later the<br />
guy came crawling back<br />
to where the old man<br />
was sitting behind his<br />
card table. The old man<br />
said, "I told you, about<br />
five miles over that<br />
dune. Couldn't you find<br />
it?"<br />
The guy rasped, "I found<br />
it. They wouldn't let me<br />
in without a tie.”<br />

A Real Eye<br />
Catcher<br />
Submitted by Stephanie<br />
Arsenault<br />
At a hotel restaurant, a<br />
man sees an attractive<br />
woman sitting alone at<br />
the next table.<br />
Suddenly, she sneezes,<br />
and a glass eye<br />
comes flying out of<br />
her eye socket. It hurls<br />
by the man, and he<br />
snatches it from the<br />
air and hands it back<br />
to her.<br />
"This is so embarrassing,"<br />
the woman says,<br />
and she pops her eye<br />
back in place. "I'm<br />
sorry to have disturbed<br />
you. Let me buy dinner<br />
to make it up to you.<br />
May I join you?" He<br />
nods.<br />
The woman is a stimulating<br />
conversationalist,<br />
stunningly pretty,<br />
and the man finds they<br />
have a lot in common.<br />
He gets her phone<br />
number and asks, "You<br />
are the most charming<br />
woman I've ever<br />
encountered. Are you<br />
this nice to every guy<br />
you meet?"<br />
"No," she replies. "You<br />
just happened to catch<br />
my eye.”<br />
I tried watching a beaver documentary.<br />
The stream kept stopping.<br />

Three buddies die in<br />

go to heaven for an<br />

They are all asked,<br />
“When you are in your<br />
casket and friends and<br />
family are mourning<br />
you, what would you<br />
like to hear them say<br />
about you?<br />
The first guy says, “I<br />
would like to hear them<br />
say that I was a great<br />
doctor and a great<br />
family man.”<br />
The Envelope Challenge for Businesses is an<br />

for “sale” on a secure website. Each envelope is<br />
worth its face value. With each donation, you<br />
have a chance to win any of our gift prizes. Visit<br />
www.francocenter.org for more information.<br />
The second guy says,<br />
“I would like to hear<br />
that I was a wonderful<br />
husband and school<br />
teacher which made a<br />
huge difference in our<br />
children of tomorrow.”<br />
The last guy replies,<br />
“I would like to hear<br />
them say, “Look! He’s<br />
