This has probably been around a couple of times already, but makes for a good story. I hope that mean administrator doesn't pull it.......HAHAHAHAHA


A New Englander dies and is sent to hell. He had been a horrible man throughout life and even the devil wanted to punish him, so he puts him to work breaking up rocks with a sledgehammer. To make it worse he cranks up the temperature and the humidity. "Love my kingdom!" laughs the devil.

After a couple of days the devil checks in on his victim to see if he
is suffering adequately. The devil is aghast as he looks at the New Englander happily swinging his hammer and whistling a happy tune. The devil walks up to him and says, "I don't understand this. I've turned the heat way up, it's
humid, you're crushing rocks; why are you so happy?" The New
Englander, smiling big, looks at the devil and replies, "This is great! It reminds me of August in New England. Hot, humid, a good place to work. It reminds me of home. This is fantastic!"

The devil, extremely perplexed, walks away to ponder the New
Englander's remarks. Then he decides to drop the temperature, send down driving rain and torrential wind. Soon, hell is a wet, muddy mess. Walking in mud up to his knees with dust blowing into his eyes, the New Englander is happily slogging through the mud pushing a wheelbarrow full of crushed rocks. Again,
the devil asks how he can be happy in such conditions. The New Englander replies, "This is great! Just like April in
New England. It reminds me of working out in the fields with spring planting!" The devil is now completely baffled.

Angry, and desperate to make hell really hell, he tries one last ditch effort. He makes the temperature plummet. Suddenly hell is blanketed in snow and ice. Confident that this will surely make the New Englander unhappy.

The devil checks in on the New Englander. He is aghast at what he sees. The New Englander is dancing, singing, and twirling his sledgehammer as he cavorts in glee.

"How can you be so happy? Don't you know it's 40 below zero!?" screams the devil.

Jumping up and down the New Englander throws a snowball at the devil and yells, "Hell's frozen over!! This means the Patriots won the SUPERBOWL!!!

Jenn 02-11-2002 10:30 PM

that was my second guess!:rolleyes:

Striper1 02-11-2002 10:34 PM

Thanks Bloo.

I was about to say one guy looking over a fence and one guy looking out a hole in the fence (at night)

Jenn 02-11-2002 10:35 PM

aww...see what a nice person I can be!! HA!HA!

the weight of the world on my hips....I mean shoulders! LOL

Pisces is willing to take the weight of the whole world upon their shoulders, but that doesn't mean that it's a good idea. Mentors and therapists successfully establish worldviews, while others think about things that are closer to home. Some people are just begging to be led along or have their personal truths reinforced. With this much power over others, how can you sleep at night? Read a good book to take your mind off your troubles before attempting to enter dreamland.

bloocrab 02-11-2002 10:38 PM

JENN.......is this what you were thinking?......


:D:D

Striper1 02-11-2002 10:38 PM

Jenn what about Leo ?

Jenn 02-11-2002 10:42 PM

too funny! OMG!!! that IS what I had in mind! thanks for the good laugh!


leo....hang on a sec OK??

Jenn 02-11-2002 10:44 PM

Leo is out of his or her element, but that doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. Sometimes radical change has a tendency to lead to massive opportunity. Instead of being disappointed that your current project isn't working out, make a better set of appointments. After the chaos is over, don't hesitate to reapply your existing plans, or scrap them in favor of something completely new. There's something wonderful lying under the rubble, and if you're willing to stretch, it's within your reach.



any one else?????

Bloo.....I am STILL laughing about that!!!

bloocrab 02-11-2002 10:48 PM

Now Jenn......I'm glad to see that you were at least thinking about a fishing related subject.......

.....but Striper1........what was on your mind???.....:D :D

.....you a peeping Tom??....:eek: :D

......Allright.......I'll byte.......what does Gemini have to offer?.....;)

Striper1 02-11-2002 10:53 PM

Jenn 02-11-2002 11:03 PM

oops sorry.....I was taking one of those online I.Q. tests!!!!


OOOHHH! a gemini huh??????

hang on.....

Jenn 02-11-2002 11:05 PM

Gemini
Everyone else is still in the dark about what's going on, but you have the advance knowledge to move strategically. Even as your cup begins to run over, don't be too quick to spill the beans. Your smile is an invitation to mystery instead of a guidebook to your would-be imitators. If you absolutely have to let the cat out of the bag, make sure you reveal the secret to someone you trust implicitly. This is not a good time to call a lot of attention to yourself, Gemini.

Jenn 02-11-2002 11:06 PM

HA! too funny...the opening line....everyone is in the dark about whats going on!!!!!! HA!HA!

bloocrab 02-11-2002 11:11 PM

" This is not a good time to call a lot of attention to yourself, Gemini.".......uh oh, maybe I should stop posting tonight!!!...:eek: :(

Jenn 02-11-2002 11:13 PM

Buckwheat! yeah!!!

bloocrab 02-11-2002 11:14 PM

....I mean we all know this is silly........but I thought it was supposed to be "just" that.......???:confused:

Jenn 02-11-2002 11:15 PM
