Too Strange, Weird or Just Funny....

Some things in life are just plain funny. Here are a few that I ran across.  

A construction worker thought he had a toothache so he went to his dentist, or maybe his doctor, he was experiencing blurred vision, too. They took an x-ray and discovered that he had inadvertently shot a nail into the roof of his mouth. Now I ask you, how does a worker shoot a 3 inch or so nail into his mouth and not know it. I guess that goes to show you, we must be aware of our surroundings and our bodies.

 

The California state legislature  passed a law defining marriage as the union of one man and one female or something to that effect, banning "gay" marriages. OK, I'm not in favor of the government legislating religious or choice issues, but that's understandable; however, there is either another law or part of the same law that says that when domestic partners separate they must get a divorce. The ending of the domestic partnership involves custody issues if children are involved, alimony, etc. Come on now, the state of California wants it both ways. Either gay or any domestic partnerships are either covered under "legal" marriage laws or they are not, divorce must be equated with the same marriage definition.

Actually I just skimmed the Terminating a California Registered Domestic Partnership brochure and think maybe California has it right. I failed to see the distinction between California's definition of  "marriage" and "domestic partners".  Now it makes sense to me. See what happens when you make decisions from those 60 second media spots. The commentator didn't explain the situation accurately or completely. I wonder how many Americans made up their minds about election issues listening to those one-sided, incomplete and inaccurate blurbs?

 

Dr. Ruth Westheim has a weekly column in the (Fort Lauderdale) Sun-Sentinel, in one of her articles she was discussing male erections and ejaculations. She said that older men often times need time, even a day or longer, between ejaculations. In other words, even if a man is able to "get it up" and perform his task at hand, so to speak, it will take some time before he can do it again. The controversial Dr. Ruth compared the performance of older men to younger males, males in their 20's. She said that men in their 20's can ejaculate within minutes of each ejaculation. When I read that I smile a little. If the people around me at the restaurant noticed my smile they probably thought that I was having a senior moment. Actually I was thinking, according to Dr. Ruth, I must be a kid! That made me feel better. 

Ejaculation, I can still remember at St. Joe's in third grade we learned about ejaculations. No, not the sexual kind, the prayer kind. A religious ejaculation is a very short prayer. It is said as a quick remembrance or request of God and the saints. Jesus, Mary and Joseph pray for us, is an example. Or Holy Spirit be with us. Or St. James pray for me. Next time you are in the heat of a passionate, "good" ejaculation of the sexual type, remember the other meaning of ejaculation and you might just come out with, Oh God.... I didn't mean for this to be irreverent or disrespectful. I know that God has a sense of humor.
