Be My Valentine
A guy walks into a post office one day to see a middle-aged, balding man standing at the counter methodically placing “Love” stamps on bright pink envelopes with hearts all over them. He then takes out a perfume bottle and starts spraying scent all over them.
His curiosity getting the better of him, he goes up to the balding man and asks him what he is doing. The man says, “I’m sending out 1,000 Valentine cards signed, ‘Guess who?'”
“But why?” asks the man.
“I’m a divorce lawyer,” the man replies.
These pictures are incredible. They certainly demonstrate the power (and beauty) of nature! I remember the day so clearly. We had high winds
where I live , but the path of the storm passed about 10 km from our house. It left a path of destruction just over a 100 yards wide.
If you have any photos similar to these, I would really appreciate it if you could post them.
Thanks John

Canada has put forth one of their best efforts and teams for this year’s Winter Olympics. Â In Turin in 2006, Germany lead with 29. The US was second with 25 and Canada third with 25. (See the top 11 in 2006 below.) Hopefully, the extra pressure put on our athletes will be offset by the advantage of having the “Home Team” support.
It sure would be great to see these beautiful medals around the necks of a record number of Canadian athletes. Good luck!

A Newfoundland farmer named Angus had a car accident.
In court, the Eversweet Company’s hot-shot solicitor was questioning Angus.
‘Didn’t you say to the RCMP at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine?’ asked the solicitor.
Angus responded: ‘Well, I’ll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favourite cow, Bessie, into the… ‘
‘I didn’t ask for any details’, the solicitor interrupted. ‘Just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine!’?’
Angus said, ‘Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road…. ‘
The solicitor interrupted again and said, ‘Your Honour, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the police on the scene that he was fine. Now several weeks after the accident, he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question. ‘
By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Angus’ answer and said to the solicitor: ‘I’d like to hear what he has to say about his favourite cow, Bessie’.
Angus thanked the Judge and proceeded. ‘Well as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite cow, into the trailer and was driving her down the road when this huge Eversweet truck and trailer came through a stop sign and hit my trailer right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurt, very bad like, and didn’t want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible pain just by her groans.
Shortly after the accident, a policeman on a motorbike turned up. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her, and saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes.
Then the policeman came across the road, gun still in hand, looked at me, and said, ‘How are you feeling?’
