High Mileage

Mercury Comet
Here’s an interesting story about a lady who owned a Mercury Comet that had 540,000 miles. Her name is Rachel and she’s quite a gal, and she’s got quite a car!

June’s Gone
This is the last day of June! It’s kind of hard to believe that this year is going so fast. It’s half over already! A reminder that time is going fast. It goes faster for us when we are older. I think that’s because we don’t have as many days left to live. Whereas, someone young has many more years of expected life, so time seems to go much slower. 

Gone Fishing Again Today 
I’m going fishing again today, then I’m going to stay away from the lake until after the July 4th. It seems around the holidays there are lots of crazies that get out on the lake. So I’ll stay home and leave them alone.

My fishing buddies, Ralph and Doug, are going with me today. We hope to fish South Holston Lake for some more trout.

Joke of the Day

Some years ago an old Indian chief sat in his hut on the reservation, smoking a ceremonial pipe and eyeing two US government officials sent by the President to interview him.

Chief Two Eagles was asked by one official, “You’ve observed the white man for many years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances, you've seen his progress, and the damage he's done.”

The Chief nodded in agreement.  The official
continued, “Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?”

The Chief stared at the government officials
for over a minute and then calmly replied,

”When white man found the land, Indians were running it.  No taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, women did all work, medicine man free, Indian man spent all day hunting and fishing, all night doing whatever he wanted.”  Then the chief leaned back and smiled.  “Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that.”
