 One day, in line at the company cafeteria, Bob says to Mike behind him, 'My elbow hurts like the #^^^^&ens!! I guess I'd better see a doctor.' 'Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money,' Mike replies. 'There's a diagnostic computer down at Wal-Mart . Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs $10 - A lot cheaper than a doctor.'
 So, Bob deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Wal-Mart. He deposits $10, and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. 10 seconds later, the computer ejects a printout:
 'You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and Epsom salts found on aisle 2. Avoid heavy activity. It will improve in 2 weeks. Thank you for shopping @ Wal-Mart.'
 That evening, while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Bob began wondering if the computer could be fooled.
 He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sp erm sample for good measure.
 Bob hurries back to Wal-Mart, eager to check the results. H e deposits $10, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.
 The computer prints the following:
 1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. (Aisle 9)
 2. Your dog has ringworm.. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo. (Aisle 7)
 3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.
 4. Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer.
 5. If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better!
 Thank you for shopping @ Wal-Mart

				 | So I call home and my brother picks up the phone. We're making small talk when I ask about the cat. "How's Boots?" "Oh", he replies, "Boots is dead"."WHAT?", I scream. "Yeah, mom took down the screens to vacuum them and Boots got out on the roof and fell and died"...."How can you be so insensitive?!" I yelled. "Well, what do you want me to say?" he replies. "You could soften it up a little and say something like the window was open and Boots got curious about a squirrel and went out on the roof too far for us to coax her back in. She ended up in the oak tree and I grabbed the ladder but she was a little too high, so we called the fire department and a hook and ladder truck arrived but as they were extending the ladder Boots slipped and fell to the ground. Despite heroic measures they couldn't revive her." "I guess you're right", said my brother, "Next time I'll try to be a little more sensitive". I changed the subject - "So how's Mom?" My brother says "Well, she climbed out on the roof...."

				 | This is so true! They always ask at the doctor's office why you'rethere, and you have to answer what's wrong in front of others, and sometimes
 it's embarrassing. There's nothing worse than a Doctor's receptionist who
 insists you tell her what's wrong with you in a room full of other patients.
 I know most of us have experienced this, and I love the way this old guy
 handled it:
 An 86-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and
 approached the desk.
 The receptionist said, 'Yes sir, what are you seeing the Doctor for
 today?'
 'There's something wrong with my #^^^^&, 'he replied.
 The receptionist became irritated and said, 'You shouldn't come
 into a crowded waiting room and say things like that.'
 'Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you. 'the old man
 said.
 The Receptionist replied: 'Now you've caused some embarrassment in
 this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with
 your ear or something, and discussed the problem further with the Doctor in
 private.'
 The man replied, 'You shouldn't ask people questions in a room full
 of strangers, if the answer could embarrass anyone.'
 The man walked out, waited several minutes and then re-entered.
 The receptionist smiled smugly and asked,' Yes?'
 'There's something wrong with my ear. 'he stated.
 The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had
 taken her advice. 'And what is wrong with your ear, Sir?'
 'I can't piss out of it. 'he replied..
 The waiting room erupted into laughter.

				 | A woman awoke during the night to find that her husband was not in bed. She put on her robe and went downstairs. He was sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him. He appeared to be deep in thought, just staring at the wall. She saw him wipe a tear from his eye and take a sip of his coffee.
 
 "What's the matter dear? Why are you down here at this time of night?" she asked.
 
 "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating and you were only 16?" he asked.
 
 "Yes I do." she replied.
 
 "Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car?"
 
 "Yes I remember."
 
 "Do you remember your father when he shoved that shotgun in my face and said.'Either you marry my daughter or spend twenty years in jail'?"
 
 "Yes I do", she replied.
 
 He wiped another tear from his cheek and said, " You know I would have gotten out today."

				 | New Ice Cream
 
 In honor of the 44th President of the United States , Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream has issued a new flavor, " Barocky Road . "
 
 Barocky Road is a blend of half vanilla, half chocolate, and surrounded by nuts and flakes.
 
 The vanilla portion of the mix is not openly advertised and usually denied as an ingredient.
 
 The nuts and flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow.
 
 The cost is $100.00 per scoop.
 
 When purchased it will be presented to you in a large beautiful cone, but then the ice cream is taken away and given to the person in line behind you.
 
 Thus you are left with an empty wallet, no change, holding an empty cone, with no hope of getting any ice cream.

				 | The Lone Ranger was ambushed and captured
 by
 an enemy Indian War Party.
 
 
 
 
 
 The Indian
 Chief proclaims,
 
 
 
 "So,  YOU
 are the great Lone Ranger" ..
 
 
 
 
 
 "In
 honor of the Harvest Festival,
 
 YOU
 will be executed in three days."
 
 
 "Before
 I kill you,  I grant you three
 requests"
 
 "What
 is your FIRST request
 ???'
 
 The Lone Ranger
 responds,
 
 "I'd
 like to speak to my horse."
 
 
 
 The
 Chief nods and Silver is brought
 
 before
 the Lone Ranger who whispers in
 
 Silver's
 ear,  and the horse gallops
 away.
 
 Later that evening,  Silver
 returns with
 
 a
 beautiful blonde woman on
 his back.
 
 As
 the Indian Chief watches,
 
 the
 blonde enters the Lone Ranger's tent
 
 and
 spends the night.
 
 
 The
 next morning the Indian Chief admits
 
 he's
 impressed..
 "You
 have a very fine and loyal horse",
 
 "But I
 will still kill you
 in two days."
 
 "What
 is your SECOND request
 ???"
 
 
 The
 Lone Ranger again asks to speak
 
 to
 his horse.
 
 Silver
 is brought  to
 
 him,
 
 and
 he again whispers in the horse's
 ear.
 
 As before,
 Silver takes off and disappears
 
 over
 the horizon.
 
 Later that evening,  to
 the Chief's surprise,
 
 Silver again
 returns,  this time with a
 
 voluptuous brunette,
 more attractive
 
 than
 the blonde.
 
 
 
 She
 enters the Lone Rangers tent
 
 and
 spends the night.
 
 
 The
 following morning the Indian Chief
 
 is
 again impressed.
 
 "You
 are indeed a man of many talents,"
 
 "But
 I will still kill
 you tomorrow."
 
 
 
 "What
 is your LAST request ???"
 
 
 
 The
 Lone Ranger responds,
 
 "I'd like to speak to
 my horse,  ....
 alone."
 
 The Chief
 is curious,   but he
 agrees,
 
 and
 Silver is brought to
 
 the
 
 Lone Ranger's
 tent.
 
 
 
 
 Once they're
 alone,
 
 the
 Lone Ranger grabs Silver by both ears,
 
 Looks
 him square in the eye and says,
 
 
 
 Listen
 Very Carefully !!!!
 
 FOR...
 THE... LAST... TIME...
 
 
 I
 SAID ...
 
 
 
 
 
 "BRING  POSSE"

				 | Drinking With A West Virginia Hillbilly  Girl:
 
 
 
 
 A  Mexican, an Arab, and a West Virginia Hillbilly girl are in the same bar.
 
 When the Mexican finishes his beer, he throws his glass in the air, pulls out his pistol, and shoots the glass to pieces. He says, 'In Mexico, our glasses are so cheap we don't need to drink with the same one twice.'
 
 The Arab, obviously impressed by this, drinks his beer, throws it into the air, pulls out his AK-47, and shoots the glass to pieces. He says, 'In the Arab World, we have so much sand to make glasses that we don't need to drink with the same one twice either.'
 
 The West Virginia Hillbilly  girl, cool as a cucumber, picks up her beer, downs it in  one gulp, throws the glass into the air, whips out her 45, and shoots the Mexican and the Arab.
 
 
 
 
 Catching her glass, setting it on the bar, and calling for a refill, she says,
 
 'In West Virginia we have so many illegal aliens that we don't have to drink with the same ones twice.'
 
 'God Bless Amercia!

				 | A man wakes up in the hospital, bandaged from head to foot. The doctor comes in and says, 'Ah, I see you've regained consciousness. Now, you probably won't remember, but you were in a pile-up on the freeway. You're going to be okay, you'll walk again and everything, but..... something happened.The fact is, your willy was chopped off in the wreck and we were unable to find it.'
 
 'You've got $9000 in insurance compensation coming and we have the technology now to build you a new willy that will work as well as your old one did -better in fact! But the thing is, it doesn't come cheap. It's $1000 an inch.  You can spend it all or spend some and keep the rest.'
 
 It's something you'd better discuss with your wife. I mean, if you had a five inch one before, and you decide to go for a nine incher, she might be a bit put out. But if you had a nine inch one before,and you decide only to invest in a five incher this time, she might be disappointed. So it's important that she plays a role in helping you make the decision.'
 
 The man agrees to talk with his wife. The doctor comes back the next day.'So,' says the doctor, 'have you spoken with your wife?'
 
 'I have,' says the man.
 
 'And has she helped you in making the decision?'
 
 'Yes, she has,' says the man.
 
 'And what is it?' asks the doctor.
 
 'We're getting granite countertops.'

				 | After living in the country all his life, an old redneck decided it was time to visit the big city.In one of the stores he picks up a mirror and looks in it.
 
 Not ever having seen one before, he remarked at the image staring
 back at him, 'How about that! Here's a picture of my daddy.'
 
 He bought the mirror thinking it was a picture of his daddy, but on the way home he remembered his wife didn't like his father, so he hung it in the barn, and every morning before leaving for the fields, he would go there and  look at it.
 
 His wife began to get suspicious of these many trips to the barn.
 One day after her husband left, she searched the barn and found the mirror.
 
 As she looked into the glass, she fumed, "So that's the ugly bitch he's runnin' around with!"

				 | DONT FORGET ABOUT NEXT SATURDAY!
 Don't forget to mark your calenders .
 
 As you may already know, it is a sin for a Muslim male to see any woman other than his wife naked. He must commit suicide if he does. So next Saturday at 4 PM Eastern Time, all American women are asked to walk out of their house completely naked to help weed out any neighborhood terrorists. Circling your block for one hour is recommended for this anti-terrorist effort.
 
 All patriotic men are to position themselves in lawn chairs in front of their house to prove they are not Muslims, and to demonstrate they think its okay to see nude women other than their wife, and to show support for all American women. Since Islam also does not approve of alcohol, a cold 6-pack at your side is further proof of your anti-Muslim sentiment.
 
 The American government appreciates your efforts to root out terrorists and applauds your participation in this anti-terrorist activity.
 God bless America !

				 | A man walks into a bar,He sits down and  places the bag on the counter..
 The bartender walks  up and asks what's in the bag..
 
 The man reaches  into the bag and pulls out a little man, about 9" high and sets him on the  counter.
 
 He reaches back  into the bag and pulls out a small piano, setting it on the counter as well.
 
 He reaches into the  bag once again and pulls out a tiny piano stool,
 Which he places in front of the  piano
 
 The little man sits  down at the piano, and starts playing a beautiful
 Piece by Mozart!
 
 "Where on earth did  you get that?" says the bartender.
 
 The man responds by  reaching into the paper bag.
 This time he pulls  out a magic lamp. He hands it to the bartender and says:
 
 "Here. Rub it."
 
 So the bartender  rubs the lamp, and suddenly there's a gust of smoke and a beautiful genie is  standing before him.
 
 "I will grant you  one Wish... Just one wish.... each person is only
 allowed one!"
 
 The bartender gets  real excited. Without hesitating he says, "I want A million bucks!"
 
 A few moments  later, a duck walks into the bar.
 
 It is soon followed By another duck, then another.
 Pretty soon, the  entire bar is filled with ducks and they keep coming!
 
 The bartender turns  to the man and says, "Y'know, I think your Genie's' a little deaf. I asked for a  million bucks, not a million Ducks."
 
 "No sh*t!!" says  the man, "do you really think I  asked for a 9-inch
 "Pianist" ??????

				true story
			 
 I was airing up at the Race Point air station a few years ago.  I'm leaning over with the pressure hose in-hand and a guy staggers over to me and asks, "Are you airing up or airing down?" 
I wanted to say, "I'm airing down..this hose sucks the air out of your tires."   What I should have said was, "Here's your sign."

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land.  It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

				Talking Dog
			 
 A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'Talking Dog For Sale ' He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.
 The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there.
 
 'You talk?' he asks.
 
 'Yep,' the Lab replies.
 
 After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says 'So, what's your story?'
 
 The Lab looks up and says, 'Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA.
 
 In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping.' 'I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running. But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals.' 'I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired.' The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.
 
 'Ten dollars,' the guy says.
 
 'Ten dollars?
 
 This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'
 
 'Because he's a liar. He never did any of that!

				 | Got from (an Italian) relative:
 Italian Loan
 
 An Italian walked into a bank in  New York City and
 asked for the loan officer He told the loan officer
 that he was going to  Italy  on business for two weeks
 and needed to borrow $5,000 and that he was not a
 depositor of the bank.
 
 The bank officer told him that the bank would need
 some form of security for the loan, so the Italian
 handed over the keys to a new Ferrari. The car was
 parked on the street in front of the bank. The
 Italian produced the title and everything checked
 out. The loan officer agreed to hold the car as
 collateral for the loan and apologized for having to
 charge 12% interest.
 
 Later, the bank's president and its officers all
 enjoyed a good laugh at the Italian for using a
 $250,000 Ferrari as collateral for a $5,000 loan.
 An employee of the bank then drove the Ferrari into the
 bank's underground garage and parked it.
 
 Two weeks later, the Italian returned, repaid the $5,000
 and the interest of $23.07. The loan officer
 said, 'Sir, we are very happy to have had your
 business, and this transaction has worked out very
 nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were
 away, we checked you out and found that you are a
 multimillionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you
 bother to borrow $5,000?'
 
 The Italian replied: 'Minga, where else in  New York City
 can I park my car for two weeks for only $23.07 and
 expect it to be there when I return?'
 
 Ah, the Italians.... Bada Bing!

				 | A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables. He picked up a CD player to place in his sack, when a strange, disembodied voice echoed from the dark saying, "Jesus is watching you." 
 He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off, and froze. When he heard nothing more after a bit, he shook his head and continued.
 
 Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard, "Jesus is watching you."
 
 Freaked out, he shined his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice.
 
 Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot in a cage. "Did you say that?" he hissed at the parrot.
 
 "Yep," the parrot confessed, then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you that he's watching you."
 
 The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? Well, what's your name little guy?"
 
 "Moses," replied the bird.
 
 "Moses?" the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird Moses?"
 
 "The kind of people that would name a Rottweiler 'Jesus.'"

				 | Not really a joke but it gives a good laugh. There is a 73 year old father who lives with his son who is in his mid to late 20s and he just writes down quotes his dad says. Since this is a family friendly site I'll give just the few runner ups of my favorites: 
"I turn the kitchen faucet on and the shower burns you, yes, I get it...No, I'm not gonna stop, I'm just saying yes, I get that concept."
 
"It's just a    june bug, calm down. Jesus Christ, what happens when something bigger than a testicle attacks you?"
 
to my bro-"Your baby dropped his binky. The binky is on the table. THE BINKY IS ON THE TABLE. BINKY ON TABLE. PICK.UP.THE.BINKY. Thank you."
 
"You need to flush the toilet more than once...No, YOU, YOU specifically need to. You know what, use a different toilet. This is my toilet."
 
"A mule kicked Uncle Bob once. Broke his ribs. He punched it in the face.. My point? You have an ingrown toenail. Stop bitching." |

				 | HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT
 The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid term.
 
 The answer by one student was so 'profound' that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well :
 
 
 Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
 
 Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
 
 One student, however, wrote the following:
 
 First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today.
 
 Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
 
 This gives two possibilities:
 
 1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
 
 2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell,then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
 
 So which is it?
 
 If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,' and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting 'Oh my God.'
 
 
 THIS STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+.

				 | A woman meets a man in a bar. 
 They talk; they connect; they end up leaving together..
 
 They get back to his place,
 
 And as he shows her around his apartment.
 
 She notices that one wall of his bedroom is
 Completely filled with soft, sweet, cuddly teddy bears.
 
 There are three shelves in the bedroom,With hundreds and hundreds of cute, Cuddly teddy bears carefully placed In rows, covering the entire wall!
 
 It was obvious that he had taken Quite some time to lovingly arrange them And she was immediately touched By the amount of thought he had
 Put into organizing the display.
 
 There were small bears all along The bottom shelf,
 Medium-sized bears covering the Length of the middle shelf, And huge, enormous bears running
 All the way along the top shelf.
 
 She found it strange for an Obviously masculine guy To have such a large collection of
 Teddy Bears, She is quite impressed by his
 Sensitive side. But doesn't mention this to him.
 
 They share a bottle of wine and Continue talking and, After awhile, she finds herself Thinking,'Oh my God! Maybe, this guy Could be the one!
 
 Maybe he could be the future Father of my children?' She turns to him and kisses him
 Lightly on the lips He responds warmly.
 
 They continue to kiss, the passion builds,And he romantically lifts her in His arms and carries her into his bedroom Where they rip off each other's Clothes and make hot, steamy love.
 
 She is so overwhelmed that she Responds with more passion, More creativity, more heat than she
 Has ever known. After an intense, explosive night
 Of raw passion with this sensitive guy, They are lying there together in The afterglow.
 
 The woman rolls over, gently Strokes his chest and asks coyly,
 
 'Well, how was it?' The guy gently smiles at her, Strokes her cheek, Looks deeply into her eyes,
 
 And says:
 
 'Help yourself to any prize from the middle shelf'

				here is a couple of good ones
			 
 At the end of the tax year, the IRS office sent an inspector to auditthe books at a local hospital. While the IRS agent was checking the
 books he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, "I noticed you buy
 a lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when there's
 too little to be of any use?
 
 "Good question." noted the CFO. "We save them up and send them back to
 the bandage company and every now and then they send us a free box of
 bandages."
 
 "Oh replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual
 question had a practical answer. But on he went, in his own obnoxious
 way.
 
 "What about all these plaster purchases? What do you do with what's
 left over after setting a cast on a patient?
 
 "AH, yes" replied the CFO, realizing that the inspector was trying to
 trap him with an unanswerable question." We save it and send it back
 to the manufacturer, and every now and then they send us a free
 package of plaster."
 
 "I see," replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster
 the know-it-all CFO. "Well," he went on, "What do you do with all the
 leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?"
 
 "Here, too, we do not waste," answered the CFO. "What we do is save
 all the little foreskins and send them to the IRS office, and about
 once a year they send us a complete #^^^^&."
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 A cardiologist died and was given an elaborate funeral. A huge heart covered in flowers stood behind the casket during the service.
 
 Following the eulogy, the heart opened and the casket rolled inside. The heart then closed, sealing the doctor in the beautiful heart.
 
 
 At that point, one of the mourners burst into laughter.
 
 When all eyes stared at him, he said, 'I'm sorry, I was just thinking of my own
 
 funeral.........I'm a  gynecologist.'
 
 
 The proctologist fainted.

				 | THE PRESIDENTIAL QUALIFICATIONS:  
In a Purdue University government class, they were discussing the qualifications to be President of the United States. It was pretty simple, the candidate must be a natural born citizen of at least 35 years of age.  
However, one girl in the class immediately started in on how unfair was the requirement to be a natural born citizen. In short, her opinion was that this requirement prevented many capable individuals from becoming president.  
The class was taking it all in and letting her rant, but everyone's jaw hit the floor when she wrapped up her argument by stating, "What makes a natural born citizen any more qualified to lead this country than one born by C-section..????" 
 
Yep, these are the same 18-year-olds that just elected the new President of the United States .  
Now we know why.....  
And don't forget,  "They walk among us!"
 
I wonder if she was blonde?  If yes then I should have posted this under "blonde joke".
 
Sorry, this is real story not even a joke but I laughed anyway...  |

				 | TRYING TO BE NICE
 A guy is coming home from work and thinks about his wife and how the only time
 he gives her anything is on her Birthday and Christmas.
 
 He's feeling a little generous and decides he will surprise her with a few
 gifts.
 
 He stops and gets her candy, then onto the florist to pick up a dozen roses.
 
 As he pulls in front of his house he sees his baseball cap in the backseat and puts
 it on sideways to add a little humor.
 
 He knocks on the front door with the candy in his hand and holding the  flowers
 on his chest.
 
 His wife  answers the door takes one look and bursts out
 crying and sobbing.
 
 He says, "whats the matter?"
 
 She says "this has been the worst day of my life, the kids have been horrible,
 the cellar flooded, my supper burned, and now you come home drunk. "

				 | A female CNN journalist heard about a very old Jewish man who had been going to the Western Wall to pray, twice a day, every day, for a long, long time. 
 So she went to check it out. She went to the Western Wall and there he was, walking slowly up to the holy site.
 
 She watched him pray and after about 45 minutes, when he turned to leave, using a cane and moving very slowly, she approached him for an interview.
 
 "Pardon me, sir, I'm Rebecca Smith from CNN. What's your name?
 
 "Morris Feinberg," he replied.
 
 "Sir, how long have you been coming to the Western Wall and praying?"
 
 "For about 60 years."
 
 "60 years! That's amazing! What do you pray for?"
 
 "I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews and the Muslims."
 
 "I pray for all the wars and all the hatred to stop."
 
 "I pray for all our children to grow up safely as responsible adults and to love their fellow man."
 
 "I pray that politicians tell us the truth and put the interests of the people ahead of their own interests."
 
 "How do you feel after doing this for 60 years?"
 
 "Like I'm talking to a #^&#^&#^&#^&ing wall."
