To Pee Or Not To Pee

I have a job. I work, they pay me. 

I pay my taxes & the government  distributes my taxes as it sees fit. 

In order to get that paycheck, in my case, I am required to pass a random urine test
(with which I have no problem). 

What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test.    

  

So, here is my question:  Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check
because I have to pass one to earn it for them? 

Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet.

I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their BUTT doing drugs ...while I work.

Can you imagine how much money each province or state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?

I guess we could call the program... "URINE OR YOU'RE OUT"! 

She's My Wife

A few months ago my wife (Brenda) and I went to Mexico for the first time.  She wasn't overly excited about going, especially with all the stories we'd heard.

We flew out of Calgary.  Got through security without incident, except, I got beeped going through the security scanner.  Had to remove my belt… my pants fell down over my knees, but other than that, everything was good… just kidding!

Brenda got a little emotional as we boarded the plane.  She said to me, “Don’t you dare leave my side… if I had handcuffs I’d handcuff you to me.”  

Upon entering the Plane the flight attendant said to me, “You’re in the next seat to the lady.  And I said, “Yeah, and she said only seconds ago, that if we had handcuffs, she’d handcuff me to her!” 

One of the the flight attendants said, somewhat surprised, “Really?” 

While the other said, somewhat concerned, “Is that a good thing?”  

“Oh yeah, it’s all good!” I said. “She’s my wife.”

Watch It

I try to read something everyday.  While browsing through some material recently, I came across the following, and thought it was worth posting here.  Think about this...

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

I Hate Cards

I had a Father's Day Card from my son today who lives out of province.  He knows the kind of cards I like and dislike. So he sent me one that he knew would make me laugh, and it did.

Here's what it said...

Dad, growing up, 

we were sometimes a little difficult, 

a little stubborn

and acted like we knew it all... 

but there was a good reason for that. 

"HEREDITY." 

 Happy Father's Day!

That's my son.

Sunday Morning

                                                              
                                                                    One Sunday morning

a pastor decided to do something a little different. He said 'Today, in church, I am going to say a single word and you are going to help me preach. Whatever single word I say, I want you to sing whatever hymn that comes to your mind -- the pastor shouted out 'CROSS.'  Immediately the congregation started singing in unison, 'THE OLD RUGGED CROSS..' He then hollered out 'GRACE.' The congregation began to sing 'AMAZING GRACE, how sweet the sound.' The pastor said 'POWER.' The congregation sang 'THERE IS POWER IN THE BLOOD.' The Pastor said 'SEX' The congregation fell into total silence. Everyone was in shock. They all nervously began to look around at each other afraid to say anything. Then all of a sudden, way from in the back of the church, a little old 87 year old grandmother stood up and began to sing 'MEMORIES.'
