Only a lawyer and a Public Servant could express these sentiments
so nicely. Love it.
LOVE THIS LAWYER
A New Orleans lawyer sought an FHA loan for a client
who lost his house in Hurricane Katrina and wanted
to rebuild. He was told the loan would be
granted if he could prove satisfactory title to the
parcel of property being offered as collateral.
The title to the property dated back to 1803,
which took the Lawyer three months to track down.
After sending the information to the FHA, he received
the following reply.
(Actual letter):
"Upon review of your letter adjoining your client's loan application,
We note that the request is supported by an Abstract of Title. While we
compliment the able manner in which you have prepared and presented the
application, we must point out that you have only cleared title to the
proposed collateral property back to 1803. Before final approval can be
accorded, it will be necessary to clear the title back to its origin."
Annoyed, the lawyer responded as follows.
(Actual Letter):
"Your letter regarding title in Case No. 189156 has been received. I note
that you wish to have title extended further than the 194 years covered by
the present application. I was unaware that any educated person in this
country, particularly those working in the property area, would not know
that Louisiana was purchased, by the U.S., from France in 1803, the year
of origin identified in our application. For the edification of uninformed
FHA bureaucrats, the title to the land prior to U.S. ownership was obtained
from France, which had acquired it by Right of Conquest from Spain. The
land came into the possession of Spain by Right of Discovery made in the
year 1492 by a sea captain named Christopher Columbus, who had been
granted the privilege of seeking a new route to India by the Spanish
monarch, Isabella. The good queen, Isabella, being a pious woman and almost
as careful about titles as the FHA, took the precaution of securing the
blessing of the Pope before she sold her jewels to finance Columbus'
expedition. Now the Pope, as I'm sure you may know, is the emissary of
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and God, it is commonly accepted, created
this world.
Therefore, I believe it is safe to presume that God also made that part of
the world called Louisiana. God, therefore, would be the owner of origin
and His origins date back to before the beginning of time, the world as we
know it AND the FHA. I hope you find God's original claim to be
satisfactory.
Now, may we have the f*****g loan?"
(He got the loan!!)

To my darling husband,
Before you return from your business trip, I just want to let you know about the small accident I had with the pick up truck when I turned into the driveway.
Fortunately not too bad and I really didn't get hurt, so please don't worry too much about me.
I was coming home from Wal-Mart, and when I turned into the driveway, I accidentally pushed down on the accelerator instead of the brake.
The garage door is slightly bent but the pick up fortunately came to a halt when it bumped into your car.
I am really sorry, but I know with your kind-hearted personality you will forgive me. You know how much I love you and care for you my sweetheart.
I am enclosing a picture for you.
I cannot wait to hold you in my arms again.
Your loving wife.
XXX
P.S. Your girlfriend called.

It is easy really....
1) Use the font, color and size the site gives you. It takes time to change them and you can probably get an extra 15-20 posts a day. You cannot be afraid of having your posts ignored.
2) Figure out how to use the Subscriptions Page and back button rather than a bunch of open tabs. Go watch my video for some ideas
3) Be friendly and social. If people find you pleasant then chances are they will respond to your posts. You can be certain they are not skimming by your posts. ( See point #1). They are also more likely to "play" if you are a likable person
4) Be consistent.
5) Go and explore other threads on SC rather than going to other sites and posting the same things on their threads. It can be very scary getting out of your comfort area but it is a sacrifice you might have to make.
6) Make 10 posts then do a chore... repeat as necessary.The only question I cannot answer... why?

WHY MEN ARE NEVER DEPRESSED:
Men Are Just Happier People--
Your last name stays put.
The garage is all yours.
Wedding plans take care of themselves.
Chocolate is just another snack.
You can never be pregnant.
Car mechanics tell you the truth..
The world is your urinal.
You never have to drive to another petrol station restroom because this one
is just too icky..
You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.
Same work, more pay.
Wrinkles add character.
People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.
New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.
One mood all the time.
Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.
You know stuff about tanks and engines.
A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase...
You can open all your own jars.
You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.
Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack.
Three pairs of shoes are more than enough.
You never have strap problems in public.
You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.
Everything on your face stays its original colour.
The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.
You only have to shave your face and neck.
You can play with toys all your life.
One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one colour for all seasons.
You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.
You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife..
You have freedom of choice concerning growing a moustache.
You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.
No wonder men are happier.
Send this to the women who can handle it and to the men who will enjoy

YES!!! It's Saturday and no work!!!
I hope everyone is well and happy regardless of the very high winds and intermittent rain!
Thank you to all the contributors over the last 24-48 hrs specifically, as I was swimming at work and unable to reach the edge of the pool. Focus was my priority!!
A note of interest for everyone. I wrote to Q last weekend when there was no place for the 4:15 ww. I had a few exchanges with one of their techies, and what I found out is that you can enter words for up to a week after they are said. I didn't think to ask about the daily words, however the weekend words can be entered for up to a week.
I must catch up on the words coded I missed and my special thank you(s)
I am really looking forward to some laughter....
Ciao for now
Sitting on a train, traveling through the Swiss Alps, were a French guy, an English bloke, a little old Greek lady and a delicious blonde Swiss girl with attractively large breasts.
The Train goes into a dark tunnel and a few seconds later there is the sound of a loud slap!
When the train emerges from the tunnel, the French guy has a bright red hand print on his cheek. No one speaks.
The old lady thinks: That French guy must have groped the blonde in the dark, and she slapped his cheek.
The blonde Swiss girl thinks: That French guy must have tried to grope me in the dark, but missed, fondled the old lady and she slapped his cheek.
The French guy thinks: That English bloke must have groped the blonde then she tried to slap him & missed & got me instead.
And the English bloke thinks to himself: I can't wait for another tunnel, so I can smack that French again.
