Sven and Lars had promised their uncle Hans, Ole's Swedish cousin, they would bury him at sea when he died. Their uncle had thought of himself as a seafaring viking all his life and it was to be his final wish. Of course, in due time, he did pass away and the two kept their promise. They cast off from Fort Lauderdale with their uncle all stitched up in a burial bag and loaded onto his rowboat. After rowing for quite some time, Lars says, 'Do you think we're out far enough, Sven?' Sven slips over the side and almost immediately says, 'No, this will never do -- the water is only up to my chest.' So they row on some more, and Lars slips over the side once again and disappears. Quite a bit of time goes by while Lars is under water and poor Sven is really getting worried. Suddenly, Lars breaks the surface, gasping for breath. 'Well, is it deep enough yet?' Sven inquires. 'Yes, finally!

A true story about the pastor of a friends church. He had a kitten that climbed up a tree in his backyard and then was afraid to come down. The pastor coaxed, offered warm milk, etc. The kitty would not come down. The tree was not sturdy enough to climb, so the pastor decided that if he tied a rope to his car and pulled it until the tree bent down, he could then reach up and get the kitten. That's what he did, all the while checking his progress in the car. He then figured if he went just a little bit further, the tree would be bent sufficiently for him to reach the kitten. But as he moved the car a little further forward, the rope broke. The tree went 'boing!' and the kitten instantly sailed through the air - out of sight. The pastor felt terrible. He walked all over the neighborhood asking people if they'd seen a little kitten. No. Nobody had seen a stray kitten. So he prayed, "Lord, I just commit this kitten to your keeping," and went on about his business. A few days later he was at the grocery store and met one of his church members. He happened to look into her shopping cart and was amazed to see cat food. This woman was a cat hater and everyone knew it, so he asked her, "Why are you buying cat food when you hate cats so much?" She replied, "You won't believe this," and then told him how her little girl had been begging her for a cat, but she kept refusing. Then a few days before, the child had begged again, so the Mom finally told her little girl, "Well, if God gives you a cat, I'll let you keep it." She told the pastor, "I watched my child go out in the yard, get on her knees, and ask God for a cat. And really, Pastor, you won't believe this, but I saw it with my own eyes. A kitten suddenly came flying out of the blue sky, with its paws outspread, and landed right in front of her." copmom on "can anyone use a giggle?" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/2541/page/24#post-40111 Fri, 15 Aug 2008 12:37:15 +0000 copmom 40111@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ Good ones!!!!!!

Once more the farmer commanded, "Pull, Coco, pull!" Nothing. Then the farmer nonchalantly said, "Pull, Buddy, pull!" And the horse easily dragged the car out of the ditch.

Jim Bob just barely managed to pull him to safety. Furious and confused, Bubba went to see his grandmother. 'Grandma,' he asked, 'it's my 21st birthday, so why can't I walk 'cross the lake like my pappy, his father, and his father before him?'

The Music Genome Project® On January 6, 2000 a group of musicians and music-loving technologists came together with the idea of creating the most comprehensive analysis of music ever. Together we set out to capture the essence of music at the most fundamental level. We ended up assembling literally hundreds of musical attributes or "genes" into a very large Music Genome. Taken together these genes capture the unique and magical musical identity of a song - everything from melody, harmony and rhythm, to instrumentation, orchestration, arrangement, lyrics, and of course the rich world of singing and vocal harmony. It's not about what a band looks like, or what genre they supposedly belong to, or about who buys their records - it's about what each individual song sounds like. Since we started back in 2000, we've carefully listened to the songs of tens of thousands of different artists - ranging from popular to obscure - and analyzed the musical qualities of each song one attribute at a time. This work continues each and every day as we endeavor to include all the great new stuff coming out of studios, clubs and garages around the world. It has been quite an adventure, you could say a little crazy - but now that we've created this extraordinary collection of music analysis, we think we can help be your guide as you explore your favorite parts of the music universe. We hope you enjoy the journey. Tim Westergren Founder The Music Genome Project ............................................................ It really works, after a few days of listening it seems to find music I like without wading through lots of songs I don't want to hear. You do have to register but there is no audio advertising that you have to listen to. You make your own "radio stations" that only plays music that you like. This is the first internet radio station that I've found that really makes listening to the radio fun again, with no talk and all music...I like it much better than real radio.
