Responses from bloggers to my plea...

This is pretty cool. I posted a request in my recent newsletter asking people for their opinions on blogs and blogging. I'm getting quite a large response...and many people are sending me links to their blogs. So, I think I'm going to compile those links into a searchable page at my website so people looking for blogs on specific topics or just more blogs in general can use that page to find them. My newsletter goes out to over 5100 people now, so anyone reading this might want to click the link to my recent newsletter and click the email link there and send me your blog url, so you can be included when I announce it in my next issue.

On a lighter note, a guy named Rich in the Computer Help and Discussion group just sent us a bunch of VERY funny jokes...so I'm gonna share them here. Some of these made me HOWL with laughter. Thanks to Rich for brightening up my day and I hope this puts smiles on the faces of anyone reading this :-)

When I die, I want to go like my grandmother, who died peacefully in
her sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in her car.

A young man was sitting in class when the professor asked him if he
knew what the Roe vs. Wade decision was. He sat quietly, pondering
this profound question. Finally, after giving it a lot of thought, he
sighed and said, "I think this was the decision George Washington
made prior to crossing the Delaware."

A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use
a day..... 30,000 to a man's 15,000 words. The wife replied, "The
reason has to be because a woman has to say everything twice."
The husband then turned to his wife and asked, "What?"


A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be so
stupid and so beautiful all at the same time." The wife
responded,"Allow me to explain it to you. God made me beautiful so
you would be attracted to me; God made me stupid so I would be
attracted to you!"


Some Great Truths About Life:
1. Raising teenagers is like nailing Jell-O to a tree.
2. Wrinkles don't hurt.
3. Families are like fudge; mostly sweet,with a few nuts.
4. Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.
5. Laughing is good exercise. It's like jogging on the inside.
6. Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the
taste.

THE FOUR STAGES OF LIFE:
1) You believe in Santa Claus.
2) You don't believe in Santa Claus.
3) You are Santa Claus.
4) You look like Santa Claus.

The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.


And the favorite:
A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a
word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of
them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of
mules, goats and pigs, the wife asked sarcastically, "Relatives of
yours?"..."Yep," the husband replied, "in-laws."
