			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: Verdana;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: xx-small;">The other night Ryan and I had been play harassing each other as usual, but he took it to the next level.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: Verdana;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: xx-small;">Let me give you some background&#8230;Some people might find the spray of the toilet refreshing on their derriere.  I am not one of those people.   I think that automatically flushing toilets are a great idea as long as they are calibrated properly.  I cannot stand having the toilet randomly flushing on me, and of course they typically decide to act that way when I *really* have to go to the bathroom.  So when the toilets start flushing I rush to stand up, which makes it difficult to relax.  &#8216;There was one time I was at the airport and *all* of the toilets were randomly flushing.  I kept getting up at the sound of every flush because I was never sure if it was mine or one next to me.&#8217; </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: Verdana;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: xx-small;">So, the other night Ryan came over and flushed the toilet while I was using it.</span></span></p>
<p>[Ryan: I am still laughing]</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you a Democrat, Republican or Southern Republican?<br />
Here is a little test that will help you decide.</p>
<p>Question: How do you tell the difference between Democrats, Republicans And Southern Republicans?</p>
<p>The answer can be found by posing the following question:</p>
<p>You&#8217;re walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a Glock cal .40, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.</p>
<p>What do you do?</p>
<p>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</p>
<p>Democrat&#8217;s Answer:</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s not enough information to answer the question!</p>
<p>Does the man look poor or oppressed?</p>
<p>Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?</p>
<p>Could we run away?</p>
<p>What does my wife think?</p>
<p>What about the kids?</p>
<p>Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?</p>
<p>What does the law say about this situation?</p>
<p>Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?</p>
<p>Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?</p>
<p>Is it possible he&#8217;d be happy with just killing me?</p>
<p>Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?</p>
<p>If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me?</p>
<p>Should I call 9-1-1?</p>
<p>Why is this street so deserted?</p>
<p>We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.</p>
<p>This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for few days and try to come to a consensus.</p>
<p>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
Republican&#8217;s Answer:</p>
<p>BANG!</p>
<p>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</p>
<p>Southern Republican&#8217;s Answer:</p>
<p>BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!<br />
BANG! click&#8230;..&#8217;sounds of reloading&#8217;.</p>
<p>BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!<br />
BANG! click</p>
<p>Daughter: &#8220;Nice grouping, Daddy! Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hornady&#8217;s?&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear President Bush:</p>
<p>I&#8217;m about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family,<br />
and I would like to ask you to assist me.  I&#8217;m going to walk across<br />
the border from the U.S.  into Mexico, and I need to make a few<br />
arrangements.  I know you can help with this.</p>
<p>I plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports,<br />
immigration quotas and laws.  I&#8217;m sure they handle those things the<br />
same way you do here.</p>
<p>So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that<br />
I&#8217;m on my way over?  Please let him know that I will be expecting<br />
the following:<br />
1. Free medical care for my entire family.</p>
<p>2.  English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might<br />
need, whether I use them or not.</p>
<p>3. All government forms need to be printed in English.</p>
<p>4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.</p>
<p>5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.</p>
<p>6.  I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the<br />
flag pole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.</p>
<p>7.  Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and<br />
lunch.</p>
<p>8.  I will need a local Mexican driver&#8217;s license so I can get easy<br />
access to government services.</p>
<p>9.  I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won&#8217;t make any<br />
effort to learn local traffic laws.</p>
<p>10.  In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the<br />
memo from Pres.  Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all<br />
police officers speak English.</p>
<p>11.  I plan to fly the U.S.  flag from my house top, put flag decals<br />
on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th.  I do not<br />
want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.</p>
<p>12.  I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes,<br />
and don&#8217;t enforce any labor laws or tax laws.</p>
<p>13.  Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice<br />
and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might<br />
place on the economy.</p>
<p>14. Eventually I want to be able to vote and have all election materials</p>
<p>and notices sent to me in English with Spanish as a second language..</p>
<p>I know this is an easy request because you already do all these<br />
things for all the people who come to the U.S. from Mexico.</p>
<p>I am sure that Pres.  Fox won&#8217;t mind returning the favor if you ask him<br />
nicely. However, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go quail<br />
hunting with your V.P.</p>
