You know, I used to think that if I got caught out on the road
when a tornado hit that I’d just crawl into the nearest culvert …
A Texas Power & Light crew, putting in lines for an addition to the Hallettsville airport, found the following in a culvert …
See the two (2) pictures below:
The gator was 18′ 2″ long.
The rattlesnake roundup totaled 87.
We thank Texas Power & Light for sharing these pictures.
My friends, I give you . . THE DUMBEST GUY ON EARTH!
This picture is real – not doctored in any way – and was taken by a Transportation Supervisor for a company that delivers building materials for 84 Lumber. When he saw it in the parking lot of IHOP, he went to buy a camera to take
pictures.
The car is still running, as can be witnessed by the exhaust.
The driver finally came back after the police were called, and was found crouched behind the rear of the car, attempting to cut the twine around the load!
Luckily, the police stopped him and had the load
removed.
The materials were loaded at Home Depot. Their store manager said they made the customer sign a waiver.
While the plywood and 2X4s are fairly obvious, what you can’t see is the back seat, which contains — are you ready for this? — 10 bags of
concrete @ 80 lbs. each!
They estimated the load weight at 3000 lbs. Both back tires exploded, the wheels bent, and the rear shocks were driven through the floorboard.

Don’t pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he’ll just kill you.
And,
We purchased an old home in northern New York State from two elderly sisters. Winter was fast approaching and I was concerned about the house’s lack of insulation. “If they could live here all those years, so can we,” my husband confidently declared.
One November night, the temperature plunged to below zero and we woke up to find our interior walls covered with frost. My husband called the sisters to ask how they had kept the house warm. After a rather brief conversation, he hung up.
“For the past 30 years,” he muttered, “they’ve gone to Florida for the winter.”
An Israeli Sense of Humor at UN set the record straight.
An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made the world community smile.
A representative from Israel began: ‘Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about Moses: When he struck the rock and it brought forth water, he thought, ‘What a good opportunity to have a bath!’
Moses removed his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water. When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Palestinian had stolen them!
The Palestinian representative jumped up furiously and shouted, ‘What are you talking about? The Palestinians weren’t there then.’
The Israeli representative smiled and said, ‘And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech…’.
