A lady goes to her priest one day and tells him, ”Father, I have a problem. I have two female parrots, but they only know to say one thing. ”
”What do they say?” the priest asked.

”What do they say?” the priest asked.
”They say, “Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun? ”
”That's obscene!” the priest exclaimed.
Then he thought for a moment.
”You know,” he said, ”I may have a solution to your problem.
I have two male talking parrots, which I have taught to pray and read the Bible. Bring your two parrots over to my house, and we'll put them in the cage with Francis and Peter. My parrots can teach your parrots to pray and worship, and your parrots are sure to stop saying that phrase in no time.”
“Thank you,” the woman responded, “this may very well be the solution.”
The next day, she brought her female parrots to the priest's house.
As he ushered her in, she saw that his two male parrots were inside their cage holding rosary beads and praying.
Impressed, she walked over and placed her parrots in with them.
After a few minutes, the female parrots cried out in unison: “Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?”
There was stunned silence.
Shocked, one male parrot looked over at the other male parrot and says, ”Put the beads away, Frank, Our prayers have been answered!!!”

One of my posts, a thought provoking post: “To bribe or not to bribe? That is the question” was culled and the comments were closed down.
I received the standard email from the powers that be, telling me of this and it was because of certain replies.
I went into see which replies had been culled, although I already knew deep down which ones and by whom, and sure enough it was a couple of the regular ‘players’ who had replied with either controversial replies or against the guidelines set down here by the powers that be.
I’m getting rather annoyed at having my posts shut down (as we all are) because people can’t behave, or reply without thought and consideration for the rest of us.
There are ways of getting your points and thoughts across with getting the smack on the back of the wrist from those above.
Those of us who start these thought provoking conversations, don’t post just for the sake of it, but to get the conversation flowing without anger, without name calling, without conspiracy theories, but more for friendly conversations, help, ideas and different ways of thinking.
We all know who the regulars are that get our posts closed down and I’m sure you know who you are and no, I’m not naming names, but can you please try to play nice and think of a different way of getting your points across without upsetting the apple cart.
We all want to stay here, we all don’t like the controversial restraints we are under on here, but we all choose to stay here and enjoy each other’s company.
Please, we have to play nice and obey the rules and guidelines set down, whether we like it not.

The Master Chief texted back, "Who's Valerie?!"
The wife answered, "Nobody, I just wanted you to answer and to have confirmation that you saw my text."
The Master Chief replied, "Oh ok, because I’m with Valerie right now, I thought you saw me!"
The wife, who is taken aback, texted, "What??! Where are you?!"
The Master Chief responded, "Near the grocery store."
The wife then texted, "Wait, I’m coming right now!"
About 10 minutes later, the Master Chief's wife sends a message stating, "I’m at the store, where are you?!"
The Master Chief replied, "I’m at work. Now that you’re at the store, don't forget to buy the bread!"

I have just joined a local Food Not Bombs group
(en.wikipedia.org...).
We collect surplus or donated food and cook and deliver free vegetarian or vegan meals for anyone who needs them.
I am seeking clean plastic containers - freezer, and preferably microwave, safe - for packaging the meals I cook. If you have a pile of them cluttering up your place, I would love to come and collect them! The ones you get your Indian or Thai takeaways in are ideal.
Also, if you know of any businesses who can donate food supplies, please let me know
