My Neighborhood

To the East of us is a hill, not a mountain,

but a good sized hill.

many little brooks gush down over "sticks and stones"

from it one can view the Petzen, our house mountain.

Duikers in the tall grass

One of the smallest gazelles, a male and a female Duiker.

Its only defence is hiding in the tall grass and early flight.

Memories !

soon to be re-lived!

Quite a distance, eh?

Image taken on Center Island, 

at the foot of Yonge Street, Toronto.

While this sign suggests a distance ( East/West) of 4,640km, the actual width of Canada,

from St. John's, Nflnd to Victoria ( Vancouver Island) is 5,137 km. as the crow flies.

(quite a junk of land we stole from the Native People.)

Do you know this one...?

Jack's wife, Susan, is a really good looking woman. Tall, blond, great body, all around...

This morning, Jack's at work, she is in the shower, when there is a knock on the door.

She quickly throws a bath towel over her shoulders and answers the knock.

It's Charley, Jack's best friend. After a moment of embarrassment, Charley asks: “Has Jack gone to work yet?” Susan tells him that, yes, her husband is already on his way to work.

Charley looks Susan over, from head to toe and says:

“I have always wanted to see your body without it being covered. Would you drop this towel, if I gave you five hundred Euros?”

Susan thinks for a moment and decides that she could do a lot of nice things with this amount of money and drops the towel.

Charley just stands there and stares. Finally he pulls out €500.00, hands them to Susan, turns and leaves.

In the evening, Jack comes home and asks if there is any interesting News. So Susan tells him that Charley was here, asking for him.

“Oh”, says Jack, “was he now? Did he mention anything about the 500 Euros he owes me?”

is afraid that you might have heard this one before.

It works both ways:

Mrs. Smith sues her neighbour Mr. Jones, charging that he defamed her by calling her a pig.
The Judge finds Mr. Jones guilty and imposes a $100.00 fine.
Mr. Jones asks the judge: "Does this mean that it is illegal to call Mrs. Smith a pig?"
"This is correct", says the judge, "you cannot call Mrs. Smith a pig"
Mr. Jones thinks for a moment and then asks: "Is it also illegal to call a pig Mrs. Smith?"
"No", answers the judge, "there is no law against calling a pig Mrs. Smith."
Mr. Jones turns to Mrs. Smith and says: "Good afternoon, Mrs. Smith!"

Too beautiful to be ignored...........
