Just this past week I ( plumbob ), was laying there in my bed what felt like my dying days were here. While suffering agonies on my way to my hopefully heavenly final destination, I suddenly smell the aroma of my favorite scones wafting up the stairs that stuco hand delivered.
I gathered my remaining strength, and lifted myself from the bed.
Leaning on the wall, I slowly made my way out of the bedroom, gripping the wall, I slowly make it to the kitchen.
There, piled on a tray were my favorite scones. Was it heaven? I better call ghaynes and ask him after all it was dinner time.
Or was it one final act of love from my devoted wife of twenty sixty years, ( plumjuice ), seeing to it that I left this world a happy man?
Mustering one great final effort, I threw myself towards the table, landing on my knees in rumpled posture.
Being aged and withered my hand trembled towards a scone at the edge of the table.
When out of nowhere i was suddenly smacked by my bride with a wooden spoon……
Back off plumjuice said, " they're for Your Funeral."
One hot summers day in Kansas City 3 contractors Randyhartford, Rutinbuck, and Eastern Oz
had run out of bottled water.
The foreman Oz unwillingly drew the short straw to knock on the door of the 1 house on the block that is finished and occupied with a grumpy Bad Fisherman occupant.
They tell their story to the old coot about how hot it is and they have been working all of 2 hours already.
Having a kind heart although grumpy, BF invited them in.
The crew by Randy's direction sat the kitchen table to ensure the sofa stays clean. BF goes to the kitchen to gather up glasses and ice and make them drinks.
Meanwhile, Rut points out that there is a bowl of peanuts on the center of the table, and all 3 begin munching away.
Upon BF’s return all 3 start to blush and Oz says, "Sorry Sir, we got a little carried away and ate all your peanuts while we were waiting."
"OH, that's quite alright," says BF. "They are too hard for my weary jaw and teeth anyway.
I just like to take my dentures out and suck the chocolate off of them."
Catfish Hunter once said he once saw a bear while on one of his guided tours ( most likely was a cub ) and high tailed it out of the woods.
He started running toward the camp at full speed. ( For him that was a good 1mph )
After around a mile, he looked back and the bear, who was just a feet away from him, slipped all of sudden.
This allowed Cat to gain some distance from the bear.
After around another mile, ( now down to .5mph ) looked back and the bear, who was closing the distance slipped once again.
This kept happening until he reached the campgrounds. And that's how he survived the bear chasing him for nearly 3 miles.
Fellow camper Hunt22 knows not to go into the woods alone and being a renown hunter himself is in awe of Cats harrowing story.
Hunt tells Cat that was really great that he would have probably peed his pants.
Cat huffing and puffing with sweat upon his brow says to Hunt:
Now you know why the bear kept slipping. "
