Governor Hogg of Texas.

I’ve never heard the Husa before. I’ve heard mention of Ura many times over the years, but it is entirely bogus. Ima Hogg had no sister named Ura.

I saw Ima Hogg once a few months before she passed away. Her chauffeur obviously wasn’t very bright.

</div>

In college, I had a math professor named Dr. Sprows. He told us that when his son was born, he was considering naming him after a great mathematician, such as Bertrand Russell. But “Bertrand” is a pretty uncommon name, and “Russell”, despite being a last name here, is also a perfectly passable first name, so he figured that the kid would probably go by his middle name. Which would make him “B. Russell Sprows”.

He decided on a different name.

I always heard the “little whine” joke as an elephant joke.

Which reminds me of the angriest I’ve ever been in my life. Sitting around a campfire one evening, we were trading jokes, and I piped up: “Did you know that an elephant’s genitals are on its feet?”

Folks obligingly said, “Oh yeah?” and I drew breath to deliver the punchline–when this drunk schmuck shouted over me, “YEAH! IF YOU STEP ON ONE YOU’RE FUCKED!”

Oh the white hot rage.

**QUOTES FOR THE DAY**

Keep seeing the glass half-full and I it will dawn on you that it’s probably your turn to buy.

- Bill Murray

I hate it when people say “Nice to meet you” before I’ve even said anything. How do you know it’s nice to meet me? I’m an asshole.

- Jack Nicholson

I am thinking of buying a monkey. Then I think, “Why stop at one?” I don’t like being limited in that way. Therefore, I’m considering a platoon of monkeys. So that people will look at me and see how mellow and well-adjusted I am compared to these monkeys throwing feces around.

- Robert Downey, Jr.

### A middle aged surgeon and his wife are walking along a sandy beach,

when they notice a brass lamp protruding from then ground.  
The wife picks it up and a genie immediately spouts forth from the lamp. “You each may have 3 wishes”, the genie says.

The surgeon allows his wife to go first. She asks for a house on the Cliffside nearby, overlooking the beach. Suddenly a mansion appears in the distance. She then asks for immense wealth. This too is also granted. Finally she asks to be free of illnesses for as long as she lives. This is granted and as a token of gratitude the genie transports them to the doorsteps of the cliff side mansion.

The genie turns to the surgeon and inquires what his wishes are. The man states “I’d like to have a wife that is 20 years younger than myself”. The genie nods and makes the man 70 years old.

### Spring is here

I got so excited that I wet my plants.
