Back from the Dead



Another day
Another dollar
Or Euro
Or Pound
Or Won
Whatever currency you like
And even some you don't

So what's going on out there?
Anything I should know?

Emirates Team New Zealand or the Evil(ish) empire?



I hope the weekend treated you all well
For me, it was good and yet not so
My football team went down again
I cursed them but will be back next week
Like the masochist I am
I went to a duck pond yesterday
Ducks soothe the soul
Swans on the other hand are too agressive
And don't get me started on the seagull
Full of hot air!
I saw a show on Korean TV last night
An old lady had a pigeon friend
Who could not fly
The pigeon, not the old lady
It was sad

Sad Joke to Start the Week

Last week was my birthday and I didn't feel very well waking up that morning. I went downstairs for breakfast hoping my wife would be pleasant and say,

'Happy Birthday!',

and possibly have a present for me. As it turned out, she barely said good morning, let alone 'Happy Birthday.'

I thought... Well, that's marriage for you, but the kids will remember. My kids came into breakfast and didn't say a word.

So when I left for the office, I was feeling pretty low and somewhat despondent. As I walked into my office, my secretary Jane said,

'Good morning, boss, Happy Birthday!'

It felt a little better that at least someone had remembered. I worked until one o'clock and then Jane knocked on my door and said,

'You know, it's such a beautiful day outside, and it's your birthday, let's go out to lunch, just you and me.'

I said,

'Thanks Jane, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day.Let's go!'

We went to lunch. Butwe didn't go where we normally would go. We dined instead at a little place with a private table. We had two martinis each and I enjoyed the meal tremendously on the way back to the office, Jane said,

'You know, it's such a beautiful day... We don't need to go back to the office, do we?'

I responded,

'I guess not. What do you have in mind?'

She said,

'Let's go back to my apartment.'

After arriving at her apartment Jane turned to me and said, 'Boss, if you don't mind, I'm going to step into the bedroom for a moment. I'll be right back.' 'OK.' I nervously replied. She went into the bedroom and, after a couple of minutes, she came out carrying a huge birthday cake... Followed by my wife, kids, and dozens of my friends and co-workers, all singing 'Happy Birthday'. and I just sat there...

On the couch...
