    Memorial Day 2007

    The American's Creed

    (If you need a toast at your Memorial Day dinner)

    William Tyler Page

    "I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies."

    NOTE: William Tyler Page, Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives, wrote "The American's Creed" in 1917. The House on behalf of the American people accepted it on April 3, 1918.

    I'm deployed

    I have been deployed. It's very similar to Iraq.  I've been deployed to Earth
    and I've been here 81 plus years. Trouble is, the commander hasn't told me the
    mission.  I think I volunteered.  Wonder why. And I forgot where I came from. Jesus Christ.
    No, Holy Moses. This is a dangerous
    deployment. Never know what's going to happen
    next and I'm not sure they want me
    here anyway. What do you guys think?

    Why Einstein

    I know why Einstein was able to dream up the theory of relativity.  He didn't have 2 computers, 2 printers, and 2 scanners to fight with all day long.  I could have thought of the theory of relativity today if it hadn't been for these demons.

    Proof of God

    My son in law says he has proof of God:
     
    (1) God, if you exist, please give me absolutely no sign.
    (2)
    (3) Therefore, God exists.

    The doctor could be in (?)

    There's an old doctor joke: He works the second Tuesday of the week from 11 to 12.  The other joke is to tell everybody to come in at 2 pm so he doesn't have to talk to them.  I knew a guy like that. Played a lot of golf. He's dead now. They strangled him.
