Tony,

Hows about you go first with the jokes, you've had some doosies too. <ggg> I've just spent the last 15 minutes looking for a few semi clean ones. People are really beginning to wonder about all the laughing coming from my office. :-0 Besides I don't want Frank or Jill kicking me off SI now do I ??

I agree with your office neighbor about enough with the market going down. I guess its just gravity, what goes up must come down. With all the good press about the PC numbers maybe things will improve tomorrow.

I'm not the Queen, That's Sonki, I'm just a lowly servant Girl, albeit a vivacious one. <ggg>

Have a good evening your self!!

Take Care

Ann

P.S. I did manage to find this one, shouldn't offend anyone.

Long ago, when sailing ships ruled the waves, a captain and his crew were in danger of being boarded by a pirate ship. As the crew became frantic, the captain bellowed to his First Mate, "Bring me my red shirt!" The First Mate quickly retrieved the captain's red shirt, which the captain put on and led the crew to battle the pirate boarding party. Although some casualties occurred among the crew, the pirates were repelled.
Later that day, the lookout screamed that there were two pirate vessels sending boarding parties. The crew cowered in fear, but the captain, calm as ever bellowed, "Bring me my red shirt!" And once again the battle was on, however, the Captain and his crew repelled both boarding parties, although this time more casualties occurred.
Weary from the battles, the men sat around on deck that night recounting the day's occurrences when an ensign looked to the Captain and asked, "Sir, why did you call for your red shirt before the battle?"
The Captain, giving the ensign a look that only a captain can give, exhorted, "If I am wounded in battle, the red shirt does not show the wound and thus, you men will continue to fight unafraid."
The men sat in silence marveling at the courage of such a man. As dawn came the next morning, the lookout screamed that there were pirate ships, 10 of them, all with boarding parties on their way.
The men became silent and looked to the Captain, their leader, for his usual command.

The Captain, calm as ever, bellowed,
"Bring me my brown pants!"
