Then take a gander at this video called Obama at the Bat. It’s a funny video and done up pretty nice.

I hope you Obama supporters don’t get upset. I would had to lose the three of you as readers.

Tennessee Granddaddy Says:
I hope you do take me too serious. I do like to kid around a lot, and sometimes get carried away.

I hope you can separate my foolishness from my seriousness.

Joke of the Day

The old Indian chief called for the two bravest warriors in the tribe.

"Running Buffalo, Falling Rocks, you go and seek buffalo skins. Whichever of you returns with the most skins will become my right hand man and will be the next chief."

A month later, Running Buffalo came back with nearly a hundred pelts.

Sadly, Falling Rocks never returned.

The tribe organized a search and looked everywhere, but they couldn't find the missing brave anywhere. Today, as you drive through the West, you can see the evidence of love and devotion the tribe had for this lost warrior. Throughout the highways, on interstates and side roads, you can still see their signs that say, 'Watch for Falling Rocks.'

(You learn something new every day.)
