Labor Pains

February 13th, 2009

I was sitting in the waiting room of the hospital after my wife had gone into labor and the nurse walked out and said to the man sitting next to me, “Congratulations sir, you’re the new father of twins!”
The man replied, “How about that, I work for the Doublemint Chewing Gum Company.” The man then followed the woman to his wife’s room.
About an hour later, the same nurse entered the waiting room and announced that Mr. Smith’s wife has just had triplets. Mr. Smith stood up and said, “Well, how do ya like that, I work for the 3M Company.”
The gentleman that was sitting next to me then got up and started to leave. When I asked him why he was leaving, he remarked, “I think I need a breath of fresh air.”
The man continued, “I work for 7-UP.”

 

 

 


 

 

 

A mother and her daughter were at the gynecologist’s office. The mother asked the doctor to examine her daughter. “She has been having some strange symptoms and I’m worried about her,” the mother said.
The doctor examined the daughter carefully and then announced, “Madam, I believe your daughter is pregnant.”
The mother gasped, “That’s nonsense! Why, my little girl has nothing whatsoever to do with men.” She turned to the girl. “You don’t, do you, dear?”
“No, momma,” said the girl. “Why, you know that I have never so much as kissed a man!” The doctor looked from mother to daughter, and back again. Then, silently he stood up and walked to the window, staring out.
He continued staring until the mother felt compelled to ask, “Doctor, is there something wrong out there?”
“No, Ma’am,” said the doctor. “It’s just that the last time anything like this happened, a star appeared in the East and I was looking to see if another one was going to show up.”

Drunk driving ?

February 10th, 2009

Only people from Marked Tree, Arkansas could think of this.

Recently a routine police patrol was parked outside a bar in Poinsett Co. ,  Arkansas . After last call, the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so apparently intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the parking lot for a few minutes, with the officer
quietly observing.

After what seemed an eternity, in which he tried his keys on five different vehicles, the man managed to find his car and fall into it. He sat there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off.. Finally he started the car, switched the
wipers on and off; it was a fine, dry summer night, flicked the blinkers on and off a couple of times, honked the horn and then switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few inches, reversed a little, and then remained still for a few more minutes as some more of the other patrons’ vehicles left.

At last, when his was the only car left in the parking lot, he pulled out and drove slowly down the road. The police officer, having waited patiently all this time, now started up his patrol car, put on the flashing lights, and promptly pulled the man over and administered a breathalyzer test.

To his amazement, the breathalyzer indicated no evidence that the man had consumed any alcohol at all! Dumbfounded, the officer said, ’I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the police station. This breathalyzer equipment must be broken.’

‘I doubt it,’ said the truly proud Redneck from Hwy 75. ’Tonight I’m the designated decoy.

To speak or not to speak

February 9th, 2009

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment. The next week the man realized that he would need his wife to wake him at 5.00 am for an early morning business flight to Chicago. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence, he finally wrote on a piece of paper, “Please wake me at 5.00 am.”
The next morning the man woke up, only to discover it was 9.00am, and that he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn’t woken him when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed … it said… “It is 5.00am; wake up.”

If you use spell checker you will find everything here is spelled correctly !  LOL

 

Spell Checker

I halve a spelling checker,
It came with my pea see.
It plainly marks four my revue
Mistakes I dew knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait aweigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the era rite
Its rarely ever wrong.

I’ve scent this massage threw it,
And I’m shore your pleased too no
Its letter prefect in every weigh;
My checker tolled me sew.

Wednesday Feb 4th, 2009 Wayne Wolfe passed away.  Wayne will be fondley remembered by many of us who were fortunate enough to know him.  Wayne was born Albert Wayne Wolfe, Nov 28, 1939 in Rison, Arkansas but had lived in the Jonesboro area for many years, he and his wife Kay had last moved to Jonesboro in 1993.  Wayen and Kay were married in 1960 and had a full life together raising children as well as quarter horses, doing an excellent job with both.

 After working for First National Bank of Arkansas and Saint Bernards in Jonesboro Wayne started to work for Liberty Bank.  Wayne helped many people and always had a warm smile for those who knew him from Liberty Bank.

Wayne will be missed and we can only hope that somewhere God has made another like him, for the world needs more people like Wayne in it.  We extend our deepest sympathy to his family.

How old is momma?

February 2nd, 2009

A little girl and her mother were out and about.

Out of the blue, the girl asked her mother, “Mommy, How old are you?”

The mother responded, “Honey, women don’t talk about their age. You’ll learn this as you get older.”

The girl then asked, “Mommy, how much do you weigh?”

Her mother responded again, “That’s another thing women don’t talk about. You’ll learn this, too, as you grow up.”

The girl, still wanting to know about her mother, then fired off another question, “Mommy, why did you and Daddy get a divorce?”

The mother, a little annoyed by the questions, responded, “Honey, that is a subject that hurts me very much, and I don’t want to talk about it now.”

The little girl, frustrated, sulked until she was dropped off at a friend’s house to play. She consulted with her girlfriend about her and her mother’s conversation.

The girlfriend said, “All you have to do is sneak a look at your mother’s driver’s license. It’s just a like a report card from school. It tells you everything.”

Later, the little girl and her mother were out and about again.

The little girl started off with, “Mommy, Mommy, I know how old you are. I know how old you are. You’re 32 years old.”

The mother was very shocked. She asked, “Sweetheart, how do you know that?”

The little girl shrugged and said, “I just know. And I know how much you weigh. You weigh 130 pounds.”

“Where did you learn that?”

The little girl said, “I just know. And I know why you and Daddy got a divorce. You got an ‘F’ in sex.”

Arkansas Ice Storm

January 30th, 2009

As of three thirty yesterday (Thurs Jan 29th) we have had our electricity back on and working.  Many parts of Jonesboro are still not so fortunate.  Numerous outlying areas are being told it may be the 2cd week of February before service is repaired to their areas.  Many towns a=have declared marshall law or some form of it closing town stores by 6:00p, and invoking a 6:00pm curfew on everyone.  Trying to prevent looters and keep everyone in those areas home so they do not pose further risks to themselves or others.

 As the temperatures start to rise slightly above freezing today the ice on the trees and lines starts to melt and this poses yet another risk factor for the entire area.  The dropping ice can still cause some lines and trees to break and the weight of the ice alone is enough to kill someone standing in the wrong spot or break windshields out of vehicles on or near the roadways.  Tuesady night the police chief in Trumann, Ar was killed when he was placing traffic warning cones out to warn motorists of a blocked roadway when a tree limb broke off and fell on him killing him instantly.

The heat or lack of heat is the largest problem currently and one local Jonesboro company has brought in an additional 50 power generators which they promptly raised the price of almost $300.00 over their currently posted prices.  Some local area restaurants were able to open Wednesday allowing for a hot meal for many of us who had not had anything hot for two days then.  We are truly greatful to those who could open and helped out many people during this time of need.  Numerous shelters were opened for those who had no heat in their homes and this too is greatfully accepted.  AA few to note but in no way an entire list are, St Bernards Hospital shelter, The Eagles Lodge on Airport Rd, The Convocation Center which held over 2,000 people, Bay City schools they had electricity but did not have school classes, as we said there were numerous others and to all we thank you beyond words.

I was at WalMart last night to pick up a few essentials when I met two gentlemen who were here from New Orleans, LA, to try and help get our electricity back on.  They were here from the local New Orleans power comapny and were staying at the Holliday Inn motel which had no electricity themselves.  These guys were buying candles and small plates to burn them on.  We are truly proud to have such great heros come into our town to help people they have never met get their lives back to normal.  We also saw the power company from Hope Arkansas here in our neighborhood working feverishly on line repairs and hope and pray that all of the power company workers remain safe as they struggle with the elements to restore power to everyone.  May God bless all of these workers and keep those without power safe and warm until this passes.

We will try to post some more pictures later today, the cameras were drained and we couldnt get photos until the batteries were charged again.

Arkansas Ice Storm 2009, with photos

January 30th, 2009

Today the electric companies serving Jonesboro area claim to have almost 90 percent of their customers back in service.  They claim it will now slow down on the progress because they have the main lines repaired and now start the tidious job of connecting neighborhoods and individual houses and businesses back on the service grid.  We are very fortunate they have been able to work at the pace they have been maintaining.

Some outlying areas and some smaller communities are not so lucky yet.  The longer distances between main service lines and the service areas is longer and therefore take longer to track repair needs and to effect repairs. We certainly sympathize with these people as they wait for service to be reinstated.  The few days we had with no electricity was enough for us to bear and hope the best for some of the other areas.

We have some photos today from some of the repairing and destruction going on in northeast Arkansas.

All too familiar are the repair trucks:

May God ride with these repairmen as they work day and night to restore power to all the customers who are cold and without power.

Iced up in Arkansas

January 27th, 2009

Currently in Arkansas the temperarue is dropping once again as it goes from a high of 32 degrees back down into the 20’s for the night and the tree breakage and power outtages are once again on the rise.  Parts of northwest Arkansas has been without power for a good part of the day and now from Newport to Cherry Valley we have new reports of the power being out.  The ice is breaking trees (see pictures) and also causes the high tension power lines to dip, as they dip they will arc across the lines causing blow fuses in the central power stations.  As the trees break and fall they will hit the power lines and this causes them to arc and once again creates the blown fuses in the central stations.  If you are lucky the trees will only hit the lines on their way down instead of getting hung on thm creating a worse case where someone has to go out into the cold and cut the fallen limbs off of the power lines or replace the lines because the combined weight of tree and ice on the lines has caused a break in it.

 

All things considered thus far the ice has not taken such a bad toll yet but it does not look any brighter as we head into the night.   Schools were closed in most of northeast Arkansas today due to the ice and many school kids wait anxiously tonight to find their fate for tomorrows school day.  Several have already announced they will be closed on Wednesday as well.

Icy Conditions ! Hazardous driving !

January 27th, 2009

Northeast Arkansas as well as many other areas are heading for icy roads and frozen power lines.  When driving be sure to leave extra stopping distance and more room between you and the vehicle in front of you.  Leave a little bit earlier so you are not rushed to get anywhere and take your time.  Try to drive a front wheel drive vehicle or a four wheel drive truck.  Keep in mind on ice covered roads a four wheel drive does not mean you have traction only that your front tires are pulling as well and may help provide some traction or help to maintain steering control.

If you do not have to go out please stay home and enjoy the time you have.  Most schools and several offices have closed already and please be careful if you do have to get out.  Try to keep a bag of ice salt in your trunk or rear of your truck.  This comes in handy if you do get stuck as you can put it beneath your tires for a little extra traction to get going again.  If you do have to travel take a blanket with you, in case you get stuck while out you can use it to stay warm.

 

Your friends at Jonesboro Information thank you for keeping safe and not taking any chances you do not have to!  http://www.jonesboroinfo.net

Who can say this sentence?

The Taco Bell Chihuahua, a Doberman and a Bulldog are in a bar having adrink when a great-looking female Collie comes up to them and says, “Whoever can say liver and cheese in a sentence can have me.”

So the Doberman says, “I love liver and cheese.” The Collie replies, “That’s not good enough.”

The Bulldog says, “I hate liver and cheese.” She says, “That’s not creative enough.”

Finally, the Chihuahua says, “Liver alone . . . cheese mine.”

Natural Gas line ruptured

1106 W Huntington was the site of the ruptured gas line, a resident using a backhoe on his own property was the cause of the leak.  Jonesboro police were called in to ask for a voluntary evacuation of the area to prevent any harm to citizens.  The gas company repaired the ruptured line and restored service with no injuries reported.

 To prevent anything like this always call before you dig!  The free phone call can save thousands in repairs and much time, call before you dig and they can locate any umderground cables, water lines, gas lines, cable tv and any other buried problems you may dig into.  You can find the call before you dig phone number at http://jonesboroinfo.net/services.html this is the number for Arkansas One Call.  There is no law against diggin on your own property but if you dig up buried lines or pipes etc you are responsible for the repairs and all costs incurred to repair.  If however you cal before digging and then dig no closer than a couple of feet to the marked lines if you rupture one you are not financially responsible for the repairs.
