The following messages are from several other pages, Ved Ltd. does not own these, but he finds them interesting enough to take time and post them here, and no, he also doesn't know who came up with them. WHAT CELEBRITIES MIGHT SAY WHEN ASKED: "WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?" "Why would he be on a road? I thought chickens lived in the ocean..." -Jessica Simpson "That (censor) fool of a chicken didn't (censor) know what the (censor) he was doin' crossin' a (censor) alley in (censor) Harlem at 1:00 in the (censor) morning" -Snoop Dogg "To cross or not to cross, that is the question" -Shakespeare "I agree that the chicken should cross the road, but I believe he should not get to the other side" -John Kerry "Chickens, over a great period of time, have been naturally selected in such a way that they are now genetically disposed to cross roads" -Charles Darwin "And God came down from the heavens and He said unto the chicken 'Thou shall cross the road'. And the chicken did, and there was much rejoicing" -Moses "To go where no chicken has gone before" -Neil Armstrong "We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. Its either with us or against us, there's no middle ground here" -George W. Bush "Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes the chicken crossed the road. But why it crossed, I've not been told" -Dr. Seuss "In my day, we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Someone told us the chicken crossed the road and that was good enough for us" -Grandpa "Why does anyone cross a road? I mean, why doesn't anyone ever think to ask 'What the heck was this chicken doing walking around all over the place anyways?'" -Jerry Seinfeld "The chicken did not cross the road. I repeat, the chicken did not cross the road" -Richard Nixon "This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it" -Saddam Hussein "I missed one?" -Colonel Sanders ONLY IN AMERICA... ...can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance ...are there handicap parking spaces in front of ice-skating rinks ...sick people go to the back of Walgreen's to get their medicine, while healthy people get their cigarettes at the front ...people buy hotdogs in packs of 10 and hotdog buns in packs of 8 ...the banks leave both vaults open and then chain the pens to the counter ...people order a double cheeseburger, large fries, and a diet coke ...people leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveways and keep their junk in garages ...people use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so they won't miss the calls from someone they don't want to talk to in the first place ...is the word "politics" used to describe the process so well; "Poli-" in Latin means "many" and "tics" mean "blood-sucking creatures XXX If you can read this message, you are blessed because over two billion people in the world cannot read at all: I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg.

Why don't we ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"? Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle? If a person with multiple personalities threatens suicide, is that considered a hostage situation? If a cow laughed would milk come out of her nose? So what's the speed of dark? How come abbreviated is such a long word? Since light travels faster than sound, isn't that why people appear bright until you hear them speak? Ever wonder what the speed of lightning would be if it didn't zigzag? How much deeper would oceans be if sponges didn't live there? Why does the word Filipino start with the letter "F"?

This next post will probably pull some heartstrings! A girl and a guy were speeding over 100mph on a motorcycle. Girl: Slow down, I'm scared. Guy: No, this is fun. Girl: No it's not, please, it's so scary. Guy: Then tell me you love me. Girl: I love you, slow down. Guy: Now give me a big hug She gave him a big hug Guy: Can you take my helmet off & put it on yourself, It's really bothering me. The next day in the newspaper, a motorcycle crashed into a building due to brake failure. Two people were in the crash, but only one survived. The truth was that halfway down the road the guy realized that the breaks weren't working, but he didn't want the girl to know. Instead, he had her hug him and tell him she loves him one last time. Then he had her put his helmet on so that she would live, even if it meant that he would die. If you would do this for someone you loved, post this on your page. Murphy's Laws of Combat
This link was an idea from RabulaTasa, a terrific writer! Marine Corps Rules for Gun Fighting The Marine Corps Birthday makes me nostalgic for the good ol’…well, maybe good is too strong a word. In fact, I can't say that I miss being on active duty; but I do miss being with my fellow Marines. Thinking about my friends who are getting shot at by ungrateful Iraqis reminded me of this list, an old Corps favorite, on how to act in a gunfight: 1. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns. 2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive. 3. Only hits count. The only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss. 4. If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast enough nor using cover correctly. 5. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral and diagonal movement are preferred.) 6. If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a long gun and a friend with a long gun. 7. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived. 8. If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading, and running. 9. Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on "pucker factor" than the inherent accuracy of the gun. 10. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty. 11. Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose. 12. Have a plan. 13. Have a back-up plan, because the first one won't work. 14. Use cover or concealment as much as possible. 15. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours. 16. Don't drop your guard. 17. Always tactical load and threat scan 360 degrees. 18. Watch their hands. Hands kill. In God we trust. Everyone else, keep your hands where I can see them. 19. Decide to be aggressive ENOUGH, quickly ENOUGH. 20. The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get. 21. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet. 22. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one. 23. Your number one option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation. 24. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun, the caliber of which does not start with a "4." Navy Rules for Gunfighting: 1. Go to Sea 2. Send the Marines 3. Drink Coffee Your One And Only Wish Do it one by one, don't look ahead! (It is worth it.) 1. Write the name of a person of the opposite sex. Oddly enough, someone from long ago... 2. Which is your favorite color out of red, black, blue, green, yellow? Red, duh. 3. Your first initial? D 4. Your month of birth? June (Go Geminis!) 5. Which color do you like more, black or white? Black 6. Name a person of the same sex as yours. My brother 7. Your favorite number? Lucky number seven 8. Do you like California or Florida more? The Sunshine State! ...that's Florida, right? 9. Do you like the lake or the ocean more? Ocean (Love the view!) 10. Write down a wish (a realistic one) To find a place I fit in completely. (This is real personal...so, yeah, no questions...) Are you done? Yeah. If so, scroll down. Fine. (don't cheat--) Geez! Just show me!! THE ANSWERS 1. You are completely in love with this person. Wait, what? 2. If you choose: Red: You are alert and your life is full of love. Oh... Black: You are conservative and aggressive. Green: Your soul is relaxed and you are laid back. Blue: You are spontaneous and love kisses and affection from the ones you love. Yellow: You are a very happy person and give good advice to those who are down. 3. If your initial is: A-K: You have a lot of love and friendships in your life. Yeah, I guess. L-R: You try to enjoy life to the maximum and your love life is soon to blossom. S-Z: You like to help others and your future love life looks very good. 4. If you were born in: Jan.-Mar.: The year will go very well for you and you will discover that you fall in love with someone totally unexpected. Apr.-June: You will have a strong love relationship that won't last long but the memories will last forever. Again with the love! July-Sept.: You will have a great year and experience a major life changing experience for the good. Oct.-Dec.: Your love life will not be too great, but eventually, you will find your soulmate. 5. If you choose... Black: Your life will take on a different direction, it will seem hard at the time but will be the best thing for you, and you will be glad for the change. Alright. White: You will have a friend who completely confides in you and would do and will do anything for you, but you may not realize it. 6. This person is your best friend. Naturally. 7. This is how many close friends you have in a lifetime. Well, guess I better start looking... 8. If you choose... California: You like an adventure. Florida: You are a laidback person. Alright. 9. If you choose... Lake: You are loyal to your friends and your love. And you are very reserved. Ocean: You are spontaneous and like to please people. But how- 10. This wish will come true if you RE-POST THIS BULLETIN in one hour and it will come true before your next birthday! As of this post, that actually has happened, but this prediction was off by a few years.
