Excitement is in the air today. It’s getting closer to Christmas, and Jade is flying in today. She should arrive late this evening via Delta.

Taking It Easy
It was a week ago I had my 70th birthday and I have survived so far. I don’t feel any different.

But I did run across some pictures the other day of some old stuff that made me feel old. I’ll share some of the pictures. If you remember them, you may be getting old also.

Green Stamps	Ice Trays	Skate Key
Cork Pop Gun	Drive-In Theater	Drive-In Restaurant
Car Hops	Studebakers	15 Cent Hamburgers
Penny Candy	Full Service Station and 25 Cent Gas	Jiffy Pop Corn
% Cent Postage	5 Cent Cokes	Burma Shave Signs
Brownie Camera	Flash Bulbs	TV Test Pattern

Anyway, it too close to Christmas to be talking about getting old. Let’s all enjoy the wonderful and joyous holiday season. I sure wish we would get a white Christmas here in E Tennessee. That would be wonderful… like icing on the cake.

Joke of the Day

A banker, an engineer and a lawyer were driving down a road when suddenly, their car broke down. Seeing a farm house near by, they decided to stop by and ask if they could sleep overnight while their car was being repaired.

"Sure", replied the farmer, "...but I only have two spare beds - one of you will have to sleep in the barn."

The engineer decided that he would sleep in the barn.

Ten minutes later, there was a knock at the bedroom door.
"I can't sleep in the barn - there is a cow in the barn and I am Hindu."

So, the banker agreed to sleep in the barn.

Ten minutes later, there was a knock at the door: "I can't sleep in the barn - there is a pig in the barn, and I am Jewish."

The lawyer said "I know what you're up to, but I'll go", and so the lawyer went out the barn.

Sure enough, ten minutes later, there was a knock at the door – it was the cow and the pig.
