Fitness Tip for the day
Joke for the day
When an Arkansas moon shiner who had been convicted a number of times before was again brought into the court,
The judge told him sternly: "Before passing sentence, I want to tell you that you and your sons have given this court more trouble than anyone else in the entire state of Arkansas. Have you anything to say?"
"Well, Judge," said the old fellow, "I just want to say that we haven't given you any more trouble than you've given us."
Being Dog Tired
Tired Dog
One afternoon, a woman was working in her back yard when a tired-looking dog wandered into the yard. The woman could tell from the dog's collar and well-fed belly that he had a home. But when she walked into her house, the dog followed her, sauntered down the hall and fell asleep in a corner. An hour later, he went to the door, and the woman let him out.
The next day the dog was back.
He resumed his position in the hallway and slept for an hour.
This continued for several weeks.
Curious, the woman finally pinned a note to his collar: "Every afternoon, your dog comes to my house for a nap."
The next day when he arrived with a different note pinned to his collar: "We have six children. He's must be trying to catch up on his sleep."

Joke for the day
A lawyer died and arrived at the pearly gates. To his dismay, there were thousands of people ahead of him in line to see St. Peter. But, to his surprise, St. Peter left his desk at the gate and came down the long line to where the lawyer was standing. St. Peter greeted him warmly. Then St. Peter and one of his assistants took the lawyer by the hands and guided him up to the front of the line into a comfortable chair by his desk.
The lawyer said, "I don't mind all this attention, but what makes me so special?"
St. Peter replied, "Well, I've added up all the hours for which you billed your clients, and by my calculation you must be about 195 years old!"
Kids and Murphy's Law
The later you stay up, the earlier your child will wake up the next morning.
For a child to become clean, something else must become dirty.
Toys multiply to fill any space available.
The longer it takes you to make a meal, the less your child will like it.
Yours is always the only child who doesn't behave.
If the shoe fits ... it will be expensive.
The surest way to get something done is to tell a child not to do it.
The gooier the food, the more likely it is to end up on the carpet.
Backing the car out of the driveway causes your child to have to go to the bathroom.
The more challenging the child, the more rewarding it is to be a parent ... sometimes.
