			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Washington, DC &#8211; Congress is considering sweeping legislation that will provide new benefits for many Americans: The Americans With No Abilities Act.</p>
<p>(AWNAA) is being hailed as a major legislative goal by advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or ambition.</p>
<p>&#8216;Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society,&#8217; said California Senator Barbara Boxer. &#8216;We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability to be ridiculed and passed over. With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because they have some idea of what they are doing.&#8217;</p>
<p>In a Capitol Hill press conference, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D) pointed to the success of the U.S. Postal Service, which has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to performance. Approximately 74 percent of postal employees lack any job skills, making this agency the single largest U.S. employer of Persons of Inability.</p>
<p>Private-sector industries with good records of non-discrimination against the Inept include retail sales (72%), the automotive industry (68%), and home improvement &#8216;warehouse&#8217; stores (65%).  At the state government level, the Department of Motor Vehicles also has an excellent record of hiring Persons of Inability (a whopping 83%).</p>
<p>Under The Americans With No Abilities Act, more than 25 million &#8216;middle man&#8217; positions will be created, with important-sounding titles but little real responsibility, thus providing an illusory sense of purpose and performance.</p>
<p>Mandatory non-performance-based raises and promotions will be given so as to guarantee upward mobility for even the most inept employees. The legislation provides substantial tax breaks to corporations that promote a significant number of Persons of Inability into middle-management positions and gives a tax credit to small and medium-sized businesses that agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented hires.</p>
<p>Finally, the AWNAA contains tough new measures to make it more difficult to discriminate against the Non-abled, banning, for example, discriminatory interview questions such as, &#8216;Do you have any skills or experience that relate to this job?&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8216;As a Non-abled person, I can&#8217;t be expected to keep up with people who have something going for them,&#8217; said Jen Miller, who lost her position as a lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint, Michigan, due to her inability to remember &#8216;rightey tightey, lefty loosey.&#8217; &#8216;This new law should be real good for people like me,&#8217; Miller added. With the passage of this bill, Miller and millions of other untalented citizens will finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.</p>
<p>Said Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL): &#8216;As a Senator with no abilities, I believe the same privileges that elected officials enjoy ought to be extended to every American with no abilities. It is our duty as lawmakers to provide each and every American citizen, regardless of his or her inadequacy, with some sort of space to take up in this great nation and a good salary for doing so.&#8217;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A filthy rich North Carolina man decided that he wanted to throw a party and invited all of his buddies and neighbors. He also invited Leroy, the only redneck in the neighborhood.</p>
<p>He held the party around the pool in the backyard of his mansion. Leroy was having a good time drinking, dancing, eating shrimp,oysters and BBQ and flirting with all the women.</p>
<p>At the party, the host said, &#8220;I have a10ft man-eating gator in my pool and I&#8217;ll give a million dollars to anyone who has the nerve to jump in. &#8221;</p>
<p>The words were barely out of his mouth when there was a loud splash and everyone turned around and saw Leroy in the pool!</p>
<p>Leroy was fighting the gator and beating it bad!  Leroy was jabbing the gator in the eyes with his thumbs, throwing punches, head butts and choke holds, biting the gator on the tail and flipping the gator through the air like some kind of Judo Instructor.</p>
<p>The water was churning and splashing everywhere. Both Leroy and the gator were screaming and making noises that sent chills down the spines of those closeby. Finally Leroy strangled the gator and let it float to the top like a dime store goldfish. Leroy then slowly climbed out of the pool.  Everybody was just staring at him in disbelief.</p>
<p>Finally the host says, &#8220;Well, Leroy, I reckon I owe you a million dollars.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No, that&#8217;s okay. I don&#8217;t want it,&#8221; said Leroy.</p>
<p>The rich man said, &#8220;Man, I have to give you something. You won the bet. How about half a million bucks then?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No thanks. I don&#8217;t want it,&#8221; answered Leroy.</p>
<p>The host said, &#8220;Come on, I insist on giving you something. That was amazing.  How about a new Porsche and a Rolex and some stock options?&#8221;</p>
<p>Again Leroy said no.</p>
<p>Confused, the rich man asked, &#8220;Well, Leroy, then what do you want?&#8221;</p>
<p>Leroy said, &#8220;I want the name of the guy who pushed me in the pool&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A guy is driving through Texas and he sees a sign in front of a house:</p>
<p>&#8220;Talking Dog for Sale.&#8221;</p>
<p>He rings the bell and the owner tells him the dog is in the backyard.</p>
<p>The guy goes into the backyard and sees a Labrador retriever sitting there.</p>
<p>&#8220;You talk?&#8221;  he asks.</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes, I do,&#8221; the Lab replies.</p>
<p>&#8220;So, what&#8217;s your story?&#8221;</p>
<p>The Lab looks up and says, &#8220;Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young.  I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA about my gift, and 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&#8217;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&#8217;m just retired.&#8221;</p>
<p>The guy is amazed.  He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ten dollars,&#8221; the guy says.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ten dollars!!?  Is that all?  This dog is amazing.  Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Because he&#8217;s a liar.  He never did any of that crap&#8221;</p>

<p>Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given their new wives duties.</p>
<p>The first man had married a woman from Colorado and had told her that she was going to do dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple days, but on the third day he came home to a clean house and dishes washed and put away.</p>
<p>The second man had married a woman from Nebraska. He had given his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes, and the cooking. The first day he didn&#8217;t see any results, but the next day he saw it was better. By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the dishes were done, and there was a huge dinner on the table.</p>
<p>The third man had married a girl from Texas. He told her that her duties were to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn&#8217;t see anything, the second day he didn&#8217;t see anything, but by the third day some of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye, enough to fix himself a bite to eat and load the dishwasher.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Two nicely dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless wait in the LAX airport. The first lady was an arrogant California woman married to a wealthy man. The second was a well mannered elderly woman from the South.</p>
<p>When the conversation centered on whether they had any children the California woman started by saying, &#8220;When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me.&#8221;</p>
<p>The lady from the South commented, &#8220;Well, isn&#8217;t that precious?&#8221;</p>
<p>The first woman continued, &#8220;When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz.&#8221;</p>
<p>Again, the lady from the South commented, &#8220;Well, isn&#8217;t that precious?&#8221;</p>
<p>The first woman continued boasting, &#8220;Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet.&#8221;</p>
<p>And again, the Southern lady commented, &#8220;Well, isn&#8217;t that precious?&#8221;</p>
<p>The first woman then asked the Southern lady, &#8220;What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;My husband sent me to charm school,&#8221; declared the Southern lady.</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh my God! What on earth for?&#8221;, asked the first woman.</p>
<p>The Southern lady responded, &#8220;Well for example, instead of saying &#8220;Who gives a sh*t?&#8221; I learned to say, &#8220;Well, isn&#8217;t that precious?&#8221;</p>

<p>Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook venison steak. But, all of Bubba&#8217;s neighbors were Catholic&#8211;and since it was Lent, they were forbidden to eat meat on Friday. The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest.</p>
<p>The Priest came to visit Bubba and suggested that he become a Catholic. After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass&#8212;and the Priest sprinkled holy water over him and said, &#8220;You were born a Baptist and raised as a Baptist, but now you are Catholic.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bubba&#8217;s neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood. The priest was called immediately by the neighbors.</p>
<p>As the Priest rushed into Bubba&#8217;s yard, clutching a rosary, and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement. There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted: You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you are a catfish.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It  is important for men to remember that, as  women grow older, it becomes  harder for them to maintain the same  quality of housekeeping as when they  were younger. When you  notice this, try not to yell at them. Some are  oversensitive, and  there&#8217;s nothing worse than an oversensitive woman.</p>
<p>My name is Jim. Let me relate how I handled the situation  with my  wife, Peggy. When I retired a few years ago, it became  necessary for  Peggy to get a full-time job along with her  part-time job, both for  extra income and for the health benefits  that we needed. Shortly after  she started working, I noticed she  was beginning to show her age. I  usually get home from the golf  club about the same time she gets home  from  work .</p>
<p>Although she knows how hungry I am, she almost always  says  she has to rest for half an hour or so before she starts  dinner. I don&#8217;t  yell at her.</p>
<p>Instead, I tell her to  take her time and just wake me  when she gets dinner on the table.  I generally have lunch in the Men&#8217;s Grill  at the club so eating  out is not reasonable. I&#8217;m ready for some home-cooked grub when I  hit that door. She used to do the dishes as soon as we  finished  eating. But now it&#8217;s not unusual for them to sit on the table  for  several hours after dinner.</p>
<p>I do what I can by diplomatically   reminding her several times each evening that they won&#8217;t clean  themselves. I  know she really appreciates this, as it does seem  to motivate her to get  them done before she g oes to  bed.</p>
<p>Another symptom of aging is  complaining, I think. For  example she will say that it is difficult for her  to find time to  pay the monthly bills during her lunch hour. But, boys, we  take  &#8216;em for better or worse, so I just smile and offer encouragement.  I  tell her to stretch it out over two or even three days. That  way she won&#8217;t  have to rush so much. I also remind her that  missing lunch completely now and  then wouldn&#8217;t hurt her any (if  you know what I mean). I like to think tact  is one of my strong  points.</p>
<p>When doing simple jobs, she seems to  think she needs  more rest periods. She had to take a break when she was only  half  finished mowing the yard. I try not to make a scene. I&#8217;m a fair man.  I  tell her to fix herself a nice, big, cold glass of freshly  squeezed  lemonade and just sit for a while. And, as long as she  is making one for  herself, she may as well make one for me  too.</p>
<p>I know that I probably  look like a saint in the way I  support Peggy. I&#8217;m not saying that showing  this much  consideration is easy. Many men will find it difficult. Some will   find it impossible! Nobody knows better than I do how frustrating women  get  as they get older. However, guys, even if you just use a  little more tact  and less criticism of your aging wife because of  this article, I will  consider that writing it was well  worthwhile. After all, we are put on this  earth to help each  other.</p>
<p>Signed Jim</p>
<p>EDITOR&#8217;S  NOTE:</p>
<p>Jim  died suddenly on July 27 of a perforated rectum.  The police report says he  was found with a Calloway extra long  50-inch Big Bertha Driver II golf club  jammed up his rear end,  with barely 5 inches of grip showing and a sledge  hammer laying  nearby.</p>
<p>His wife Peggy was arrested and charged with  murder.  The all-woman jury took only 15 minutes to find her Not Guilty,   accepting her defense that Jim somehow, without looking, accidentally  sat  down on his golf club.</p>
