George,

 >   It makes you wonder where they minds were.

 GP> Oh, I've known(none "Biblically") a few church secretaries -- I *KNOW*
 GP> where their minds were! *LOL*

  Several years ago, at a church I was attending, a large number of married
women
in the choir were becoming pregnant. The jokes were "There was something in the
Baptistry Water", and "These were the ones who took the church bulletin note
that
said 'All those wishing to become pregnant, please see the Pastor in his
study'...
and 'The pancake supper will be at 8am Saturday. All ladies wishing to give
milk,
please come early'". 

 >   So much for getting that refund check and package on time. 

 GP> Have you got all you're due from those?

  As far as I know. I dropped the tax stuff off at the preparer earlier today.

 GP> Yeah, insurance comnpanieds already prnt money, but that's not good
 GP> enough -- they want MORE! (it's "love of money" I think)

  And, we know what the love of money is. :P

 GP> A good friend of mine, recently passed, was a lawyer who exclusively
 GP> worked to sue the government auto insurance co here.  He made a good
 GP> living, with zero lost cases in 50 years - that shows how wrong this
 GP> insuiranceco is on average!

  Well, I needed the money to keep from getting overdrawn...they did pay
the $9100 chiropractor bill.

 GP> They caught on & cheated, now passed a law making it illegal to dispute
 GP> their findings (they're always right i they're not proved wrong in a
 GP> court of law, right *sigh*)

  Sort of the workplace rules where:

Rule 1: The boss is always right.

Rule 2: If the boss is wrong, refer to Rule 1.

 GP> Anmother buddy, a cabbie, got hit buy a drunk at 02h30 on 01/01 (oh,
 GP> sorry, I forgot youse puts the dates goofy: make that on 01/01); his
 GP> wheelchair van cab was totaled($186,000 gone!); the insuranceco is
 GP> giving him $10K replacement value. :(

  They prefer you settle it out of court, and if I didn't need the money
so quick, I would've taken them to court.

 GP> Criminal.  I don't drive, so I'm good. . .

  In driving to and from Cabot, about 30 miles northeast of Little Rock,
earlier today...I went through town. It took longer to get there, but 
people weren't passing me like I was sitting still.

 >   Or the homing pigeon decided to walk instead of flying to deliver the

 GP> & Hitler started WW2, some say, because he wasn't accepted into art
 GP> school..

  That's why athletic events have degenerated. The parents are fighting
the other parents...so much for a sportsmanship lesson to the kids.

 >  GP> Doctor: “You are going to start the new year on the right foot.”

 >    That's like the sculpture with a left and right foot made out of
 > winter precipitation -- you have two feet of snow. 

 GP> I love that one! I have it here somewhere; I'd include it if we were
 GP> chatting in regular email(internet)

  That drive to and from Cabot wore me out...I'm about to pass out here
at the computer. I've been fighting intestinal flu the last few days (I
must have eaten something that my colon didn't like), and haven't slept
well. So, it'll be nap time once I finish this QWK packet.

 > ... Hypochondria is the only disease I haven't got.

 GP> Hyperchondria is much better (excessively good health)

  Hallitosis is better than no breath at all. :P
