This post falls under the heading of "News you may have Missed." David stopped by this morning with news he heard on the radio. A thief broke into a bowling alley and stole 150 of 151 bowling balls. What on earth could someone do with 150 bowling balls, and why leave just one? Can't you just see someone sidling up to a person on the street, looking all around, then flipping the coat open and saying, "Wanta buy a bowling ball cheap?"
The other tidbit he heard was that a lady heard that when hens stop laying eggs they are killed for meat. Being soft hearted she started buying them and giving them a home. At present she has over a thousand hens to care for. This in itself wouldn't be so bad, but she is also knitting vests for them. So far, she has knitted 1,500 chicken vests. Is this world full of nutty people or what!!!
Enter first nut: "Wanta buy a bowling ball with its own chicken vest?"
Wish I knew where these events took place, but David didn't remember so I can't pass it on. The cartoon was in an email I received a few days ago. I notice the hen at the fence is not wearing a vest, poor thing.
As long as we have something to laugh about we will all be healthier. You know, Laughter is the Best Medicine! Just learned the bowling ball story came from Paul Harvey News.
Wishing you all lots of laughs........

Ok, so mom and I got a good laugh from your story about the chickens and bowling balls! This was after she mentioned a cousin named Lois, and I told her you had commented on one of my posts! Connections, connections. You know, when family move across the country, they make their own lives, have children, who have more children, and before we know it, we are like bunny's. Relatives everywhere! Nice to meet you Lois and thanks for reading my blog. I look forward to keeping up with yours and your funny comments!
