    A teenage boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of his

    father as to when they could discuss his use of the car.

    His father said he’d make a deal with his son: ‘You bring your grades

    up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair

    cut. Then we’ll talk about the car.’

    The boy thought about that for a moment, decided he’d settle for the

    offer, and they agreed on it.

    After about six weeks his father said, ‘Son, you’ve brought your grades

    up and I’ve observed that you have been studying your Bible, but I’m

    disappointed you haven’t had your hair cut.

    The boy said, ‘You know, Dad, I’ve been thinking about that, and I’ve

    noticed in my studies of the Bible that Samson had long hair, John the

    Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair…and there’s even strong

    evidence that Jesus had long hair.’

    To this his father replied, ‘Did you also notice they all walked
    everywhere they went?’

    The innocence of children…

    1) NUDITY
    I was driving with my three young children one warm summer evening when a woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old shout from the back seat, ‘Mom, that lady isn’t wearing a seat belt!’

    2) OPINIONS
    On the first day of school, a new starter handed his teacher a note from his mother. The note read, ‘The opinions expressed by this child are not necessarily those of his parents .’

    3) KETCHUP
    A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup out of the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her 4-year-old daughter to answer the phone.. ‘Mommy can’t come to the phone to talk to you right now. She’s hitting the bottle.’

    4) MORE NUDITY
    A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the women’s locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in amazement and then asked, ‘What’s the matter, haven’t you ever seen a little boy before?’

    5) POLICE # 1
    While taking a routine vandalism report at a primary school, I was interrupted by a little girl about 6 years old. Looking up and down at my uniform, she asked, ‘Are you a cop? Yes,’ I answered and continued writing the report. My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask the police. Is that right?’ ‘Yes, that’s right,’ I told her. ‘Well, then,’ she said as she extended her foot toward me, ‘would you please tie my shoe?’

    6) POLICE # 2
    It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me. ‘Is that a dog you got back there?’ he asked. ‘It sure is,’ I replied. Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he said, ‘What’d he do?’

    7) ELDERLY
    While working for an organization that delivers lunches to the elderly, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered, ‘The tooth fairy will never believe this!’

    8) DRESS-UP
    A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, ‘Daddy, you shouldn’t wear that suit.’
    ‘And why not, darling?’ ‘You know that it always gives you a headache the next morning.’

    9) DEATH
    While walking along the pavement in front of his church, our minister heard the intoning of a prayer that nearly made his collar wilt. Apparently, his 5-year-old son and his playmates had found a dead robin. Feeling that proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small box and cotton wadding, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the deceased.

    The minister’s son was chosen to say the appropriate prayers and with sonorous dignity intoned his version of what he thought his father always said: ‘Glory be unto the Faaather, and unto the Sonnn, and into the hole he goooes.’ (I want this line used at my funeral !)

    10) SCHOOL
    A little girl had just finished her first week of school. ‘I’m just wasting my time,’ she said to her mother. รขโ‚ฌหœI can’t read, I can’t write, and they won’t let me talk!’

    11) BIBLE
    A little boy opened the big family Bible. He was fascinated as he fingered through the old pages. Suddenly, something fell out of the Bible. He picked up the object and looked at it. What he saw was an old leaf that had been pressed in between the pages. ‘Mama, look what I found,’ the boy called out. ‘What have you got there, dear?’ With astonishment in the young boy’s voice, he answered, ‘I think it’s Adam’s underwear!’

    Stories…let me tell you…do we have stories….at one point, I tried to jump over the stream (thinking I was superwoman) and the next thing I know I was laying flat on the ground, my entire front side covered with mud! Did we laugh…I couple of slides down some hills….the 13 in the Camp Vits area are a BLAST! But do take water…do NOT leave it in the car.

    We left ours in the car too but were able to just look up and open our mouths for water….lol. My son also almost took a digger in the mud, but caught himself (there is alot to be said for the benefits of youth!!) Since we hit it right after the social (in the rain) and didn’t hear the directions very well we actually parked down a gravel road out towards Kreacher and walked the fenceline in… so we did the whole camp Vits set backwards… any one who goes should bring towels and a change of clothes and shoes…lol, and a walking stick, you definately need a walking stick… wings or something to help you fly would also be very beneficial…lol, and someone who can be your billy goat!!!
    We got our very first FTF’s at Camp Vits… my son decided during that trip that he definately loves the higher challenge terrains!!!!

    in reply to: Manitowoc Harry Potter Series is FUN, FUN, FUN! #1929319

    Yes, I completely agree with LN…. I attended the social and hit the camp Vits area of caches…. in the rain!!! I can’t wait until we get back and do some of the caches along the lakeshore and of course all the rest ๐Ÿ™‚ A definate MUST DO for anyone… ohhhh and yeah…. we have stories!!!!

    in reply to: Caches loading over each other today?? #1928414

    Thanks for the heads up, the series that kept loading over itself was the one released in Dretzka park a couple weeks ago. If I remember correctly, the names were similiar. I will keep an eye on this… again… thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

    How about having a logging requirement of posting a favorite recipe in your log, logs not including a recipe will not be allowed to be counted and will be deleted. This way you don’t have to worry about wet moldy paper and you can always go back to the cache page to check the recipes to use them ๐Ÿ™‚ (or print them off for use at home)…. just a thought ๐Ÿ™‚

    You can’t require this type of thing. It is known as an ALR which are no longer allowed or they have to be optional

    Well, doesn’t that just bite….ok, a strong suggestion then ๐Ÿ™‚

    School Fees and Excessive Field trip Fees!!!
    Ok, I don’t know about other people and how the schools in their areas work but here is my pet peeve for my local school district

    I wonder if this is the reason.

    Nice…. really nice….. that would explain why they tried to charge me three different times for one gym outfit I paid cash for at the beginning of the year…..

    in reply to: Thinking of archiving all my caches! #1929137

    Don’t quote me, but I believe I saw somewhere that there was a session 2 with more names that will be placed in the future for the caches I believe you are talking about…. I hate to see any caches archived as I just started in Feb. and I am working outwards from my home coords… I am sure I will be hitting your area over the summer as I work my way around and look forward to the many caches you have placed and that are in your area….
