Joke Of The Day

A man in a Florida supermarket tries to buy a half a head of lettuce.

The very young produce assistant tells him that they sell only whole heads of lettuce.

The man persists and asks to see the manager.

The boy says he’ll ask his manager about it.

Walking into the back room, the boy said to his manager, ‘Some asshole wants to buy half a head of lettuce.’ As he finished his sentence, he turned to find the man standing right behind him, so he added, ‘And this gentleman has kindly offered to buy the other half.’

The manager approved the deal, and the man went on his way.

Later the manager said to the boy, ‘I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on their feet here. Where are you from, son?’

‘ Canada, sir,’ the boy replied.

‘Well, why did you leave Canada ?’ the manager asked.

The boy said, ‘Sir, there’s nothing but whores and hockey players up there.’

‘Really?’ said the manager. ‘My wife is from Canada .’

‘No kidding replied the boy. ‘Who’d she play for?’

Joke Of The Day

Having shot a moose two Canadians began dragging it by the tail to their pick-up.

On the way they were stopped by a game warden. “Let me see your hunting licenses boys,” he said. When he saw that everything was in order he asked if he could give them some advice.

“Sure!” the hunters agreed.

“Well boys, I think that you would find it a lot easier to drag that moose by the horns and not the tail.”

“Aye, O.K. and thanks,” said the lads.

After about five minutes one said to the other, “Boy, dragging by the horns is sure a lot easier, eh?”

“Aye, you’re right,” said his friend, “but have you noticed that we are getting further away from the truck?”

Hundreds Protest Obama’s Visit to Green Bay

Naturally this was widely reported in the “Main Stream Media”. If this was an anti-Bush rally , the crowd numbers would be elevated and the number of “Main Stream Media” reporters would equal the size of the crowd.

Organizers said about 1,000 people lined the east side of Packerland Drive Thursday morning to protest President Obama’s stop in Green Bay. Stretching four blocks long, the protest parked itself along the motorcade route between Austin Straubel Airport and Green Bay Southwest High School.

Most of the protestors were part of a grassroots movement that calls itself “The Party of Know.” Jerry Bader, a conservative talk show host on WTAG 1360, helped organize the rally. Most protestors said their purpose Thursday was to let President Obama know just exactly how they feel about a government backed health care system.

“It doesn’t work,” Dawn Papapetru said. Papapetru said she feels an obligation to speak out. She now lives in Green Bay but was born and raised in Canada, a country that provides universal health care for its citizens.

“I know what the free health system is all about. It’s wrong. Taxes will go up, gas will go up and the lines get longer in hospitals,” Papapetru said.

President Obama has said he wants to model American health care reform after the Canadian system. The plan is designed to extend health care coverage to millions of uninsured Americans by offering a government backed health insurance option.

“The government has no need to get involved in my health decisions. I don’t want a government board telling me when and how and if I’m going to get health care,” Peter Soransen, of De Pere, said. Soransen was one of the hundreds of people who showed up hoping to have his voice heard.

He worries government backed health care would increase insurance costs for everyone.

“I had to take off work to do this but freedom isn’t free,” Soransen said.

While most of the protestors lined Packerland Drive south of the school, a small group of anti-abortion activists gathered near the northside of Southwest High.

“When doctors are supposed to provide abortions up to nine months pregnancy and my tax dollars pay for it, that’s part of his health plan and I don’t agree with it,” Jenny Lowery, one of the anti-abortion activists, said.

As President Obama’s motorcade passed down Packerland Drive, protestors only had a few moments to express their feelings. But their opposition to his health care plan was loud and clear. Many people booed and offered a thumbs down.

The protest broke up quickly after the President’s arrival at Southwest High School. Police tell us no one was arrested.
