Joke for the day
Smoke signals
At her father's wake, a woman told her priest that ever since she was a child she and her father had discussed life after death. They had agreed that whoever went first would contact the other. They had discussed this again just two weeks before his death.
A few days after his death, the smoke alarm in her garage went off. She had lived there 28 years and it had never gone off before. She couldn't turn it off so she called the security company that installed it.
The next morning the smoke alarm sounded again and the reason finally dawned on her. She said aloud, "Okay, dad, I missed the signal yesterday but I get it now! Thanks for letting me know that you are safe on the other side. Now turn the thing off so I don't have to call the security company again." The alarm fell silent.
She immediately called her priest to tell him the good news. His response: "Dear lady, if every time your father sends you a message he sets off the smoke alarm, just where do you think he is calling from?"

Pet for the day

Name: Lucy
Age: 13 weeks old
Gender: Female Breed: Boxer, Retriever And Husky
Home: Elk Grove Village, Illinois, USA
Age: 13 weeks old
Gender: Female Breed: Boxer, Retriever And Husky
Home: Elk Grove Village, Illinois, USA
Here is our adorable little Lucy. She is about three months old now. We adopted her from a local animal shelter. She is a pleaser and will do almost anything for a treat. She is already housebroken, can understand: sit, down, rollover, outside and want to eat? She only barks during play and knows to chew on her toys. We are very lucky!
Her hobbies include barking during play at her dad, chasing the ball, trying to catch a Frisbee, looking out the window, trying to get through the neighbors fence, running, licking the water off the side of the bathtub, and doing somersaults. She has quite a few toys she loves to play with; her favorites are her Hedgehog, soft puppy and Kong. She is always up for something new. Last weekend she went on her first road trip and first boat ride!! She had a blast. She enjoys meeting new dogs and people. Lucy is extremely friendly and cries if people or other dogs ignore her when she wants attention. When she doesn't want attention, she will ignore you. She plays hard and sleeps hard... I guess that is to be expected with a puppy. Her favorite place to sleep is on the vents when the air is running. She has brought a great joy to our lives! We are so happy to have her.
Mother's Day
Did You Know?On May 13, 2007 Mother’s Day will observe its 100th anniversary in the United States, and for greeting-card companies, that’s cause for celebration. That’s because Americans are expected to purchase more than 150 million Mother’s Day cards. In fact, according to Hallmark research, Mother’s Day is the third-largest card-sending holiday in the United States. In response, Hallmark is offering more than 1,700 card designs.
Hallmark is not alone. American Greetings Mother’s Day card line-up will feature designs for “every kind of mother,” including single moms, working moms, stepmothers, godmothers, mothers of twins, mothers of pets, foster moms and those who are “just like a mother to me.”

Restaurant Offers $1,000 Pizza Made With Caviar
NEW YORK -- A New York City restaurant is offering a $1,000 pizza that's made with caviar and lobster meat.Creator Nino Selimaj, owner of Nino Bellisima, showed off the 12-inch pie for Meredith Vieira, Matt Lauer and Al Roker on NBC's "Today" show on Thursday.
The pizza has creme fraiche, chives, four different kinds of caviar, 4 ounces of thinly sliced lobster tail, salmon roe and Japanese wasabi horseradish.
It comes sliced into four pieces and is not cooked -- since you wouldn't want to spoil the fish.
Selimaj said he has already sold two of the high-priced pizzas. He said he thinks they will continue to gain in popularity.
However, if you're visiting Manhattan and you want to order one of the pies, give Selimaj 24 hours notice. He said he only uses fresh caviar purchased especially for each pizza.

Caught Speeding
The judge fined a motorist $89.25 for speeding, and gave him a receipt.
"What am I supposed to do with this, frame it?" snapped the driver.
"No, save it," replied the judge. "When you have three, you get a bicycle."
