The Bathtub Test

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director "How do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized?"

"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."

"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."

"No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"

ARE YOU GOING TO PASS THIS ON, OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE ?

BIRTHDAY REMINDER:
This week we celebrate a special birthday.
Monica Lewinsky turned 34. Can you believe it?
It seems like only yesterday she was crawling
around the White House on her hands and knees,
and putting everything in her mouth.

They grow up so fast, ... don't they?

"Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

Fun on the Web Jan 11 '09 Dealing with Life

Thanks to my friend Mike - Here are some great ways of dealing with the burdens of life:
* Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker.
* The second mouse gets the cheese.
* Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.
* If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
* If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
* It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply be kind to others.
* Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on.
* Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
* Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.
* Birthdays are good for you, the more you have, the longer you live.
* You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.
* Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
* We could learn a lot from crayons... Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box.
*A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

Nachos

Nachos
From "The Cereal Murders" by Diane Mott Davidson

Ingredients
15 oz Chili beans in chili gravy
9 tbs Picante sauce
15 oz Corn tortilla chips
4 c Cheddar, grated
1 Avocado
1 tb Lemon juice
1 1/2 c Sour cream
1 tbs Onion, grated
4 Scallions with top, chopped
1 c Olives black pitted; chopped
1 Tomato, chopped

Preheat the oven to 400 F.

Mash the beans with one-half cup of the picante until well mixed.

Grease two 9" x 13" baking pans.

Place half the chips in each pan, then spoon the bean mixture over them. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top.

Bake for about minutes or until the cheese is melted and beans are bubbling.

Meanwhile, peel, pit and mash the avocado, then mix it with the lemon juice, 1/2 cup of the sour cream, the grated onion, and 1 tablespoon of the picante.

Garnish the nachos with the guacamole you just made, the remainder of the sour cream, scallions, tomato, and olives.
