[SUNRISE]
Every morning in Africa,
When the sun rises, a deer awakens,
Knowing it has to outrun the fastest lion,
Or be hunted to death....
Every morning in Africa,
When the sun rises, a lion awakens,
Knowing it has to outrun the slowest deer,
Or be starved to death....
It does not matter whether you are a deer or a lion,
When the sun rises, better be running at your best....
You only live once....

Time-out for ROTFL... :razz:
Q: Did you catch that fish?
A: No, I talked him into giving himself up.
A: No, I was sitting here minding my own business when the crazy thing jumped into my pail.
A: No, it's a plastic model to get people like you to start fascinating conversations.
Q: (from a woman just pulled over by a police officer) Did I do something wrong, officer?
A: No, today we're giving tickets out for doing things right.
A: No, I just got tired of lugging around these heavy summonses so I decided to give some of them away.
A: No, I'm giving a ticket to this crazy street because it's going the wrong way.
Q: (from a waiter, to a husband and wife) Table for how many?
A: A hundred and twelve -- we like to change seats every few minutes.
A: One -- my wife will sit on my shoulders.
A: I don't know -- I can't count that high, either.
Q: Were you sitting there?
A: No, my imaginary friend, (insert name), is sitting there.
A: No, I was sitting there.
A: Yes... and there... and there... and there!
Q: Is that yours???
A: No, I stole it.
A: Actually, I took it out of your wallet.
A: No, I just like showing off my friend's things.
Q: Do you like the lunch you packed today?
A: No, I just put it in there for show.
A: Not at all, I just pack it, then throw it away and go hungry.
Q: So you haven't caught any fish yet, huh?
A: Sure, I've caught millions, they're just in the water playing tag!
A: What are you talking about? I'm teaching my worm how to swim!
Q: (Person watching a trick) Am I supposed to pick a card?
A: No, you're supposed to pick your nose.
A: No, you're supposed to take all of them.
Q: (Student to teacher) Can I go to the bathroom?
A: I don't know. Can you?
A: Are you wearing a diaper?
Q: Why can't you be like your brother?!
A: Just lucky, I guess.
A: Because I'm not really into geekiness.
Q: If your friends jumped off a bridge, would you?!
A: Sure, maybe I'd land on a fat kid!
A: I don't know, would it mess up my hair?
Q: Did you bring your lunch today?
A: No, I'm going to eat yours!
A: No, I just carry this bag around because it looks cool.
A: No, I'm going to puke up yesterday's and eat it again!
Q: Excuse me, sir, is this the end of the line?
A: No, it's the front, we're all standing backward!
These questions were posted on an Australian Tourism website, and the answers are the actual responses by the website's official. They obviously have a sense of humor. Amazing how some people ask daft questions!
Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street? (USA)
A: Depends on how much you've been drinking.
Q: Does it ever get windy in Australia? I have never seen it rain on TV, how do the plants grow? (UK)
A: We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around watching them die.
Q: I want to walk from Perth to Sydney - can I follow the railroad tracks? (Sweden)
A: Sure, it's only three thousand miles, take lots of water.
Q: Is it safe to run around in the bushes in Australia? (Sweden)
A: So it's true what they say about Swedes.
Q: Are there any ATMs (cash machines) in Australia? Can you send me a list of them in Brisbane, Cairns, Townsville, and Hervey Bay? (UK)
A: What did your last slave die of?
Q: Which direction is North in Australia? (USA)
A: Face south and then turn 180 degrees. Contact us when you get here, and we'll send the rest of the directions.
Q: Are there supermarkets in Sydney, and is milk available all year round? (Germany)
A: No, we are a peaceful civilization of vegan hunter/gatherers. Milk is illegal.
Q! : Please send a list of all doctors in Australia who can dispense rattlesnake serum. (USA)
A: Rattlesnakes live in America, which is where YOU come from. All Australian snakes are perfectly harmless, can be safely handled, and make good pets.
Q: Do you celebrate Christmas in Australia? (France)
A: Only at Christmas.
Q: Will I be able to speak English most places I go? (USA)
A: Yes, but you'll have to learn it first.

A little boy went into a store, reached for a soda carton, and pulled it over to the telephone. He climbed onto the carton so that he could reach the buttons on the phone and proceeded to punch in seven digits. The store owner observed and listened to the conversation.
The boy asked, "Madam, can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?" The woman replied, "I already have someone to cut my lawn."
"I will cut your lawn for half the price of the person who cuts your lawn now," replied the boy. The woman responded that she was very satisfied with the person who was presently cutting her lawn.
The little boy was even more perseverant and said, "I'll even sweep your curb and your sidewalk, so on Sunday you will have the prettiest lawn in all of Palm Beach, Florida." Again, the woman answered in the negative.
With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver. The store owner, who was listening to this conversation, walked over to the boy and said, "Son... I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job."
The little boy replied, "No thanks, I was just checking my performance on the job I already have. I am the one who is working for the lady I was talking to!"

Some funny one-liners... :-P
- Men who don't understand women fall into two groups: Bachelors and Husbands.
- In Los Angeles they don't throw out their garbage away. They make it into television shows.
- My mother's menu consisted of two choices: Take it or leave it.
- The quickest way to a man's heart is through his chest.
- My psychiatrist told me I was crazy, and I said I want a second opinion. He said okay, you're ugly too.
- Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won't expect it back.
- Where there's a will, there are five hundred relatives.
- It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose.
- We must believe in luck. For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like?
- It's amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper.
- Many people quit looking for work when they find a job.
- Join The Army, Visit exotic places, meet strange people, then kill them.
- Cheer up, the worst is yet to come.
- I didn't say it was your fault. I said I was going to blame it on you.
- Wealthy people miss one of life's greatest thrills... Making the last car payment.
- I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.
- There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works.
- The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and a leaky tire.
- If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
- For every complex problem, there is a solution that is simple, neat, and wrong.
- Sure the Grand Canyon may be breathtaking but so is lung cancer.
- When all else fails. Follow instructions.
- By the time you can make the ends meet, they move the ends.
- Give me the strength to change the things I can, the grace to accept the things I cannot, and a great big bag of money.
- I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.
- If you try and don't succeed, cheat. Repeat until caught. Then lie.
- There are three types of people in this world: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened.
- Copy from one, it's plagiarism; copy from many, it's research.
- You can get more of what you want with a kind word and a gun than you can with just a kind word.
- Before I criticize someone, I walk a mile in their shoes. That way, if they get angry, they are a mile away and barefoot.
- I'm not saying my wife's a bad cook, but she uses a smoke alarm as a timer.
- Real happiness is when you marry a girl for love and find out later she has money.
- If practice makes perfect, and no one is perfect, why practice?
- You know you're old when the candles cost more than the cake.
- I recently read that love is entirely a matter of chemistry. That must be why my wife treats me like toxic waste.
- Who says nothing is impossible. I've been doing nothing for years.
- I've had bad luck with both my wives. The first one left me and the second one didn't.
- Those are my principles. If you don't like them, I have others.
- I always arrive late at the office, but I make up for it by leaving early.
- I'm so old they've canceled my blood type.
- The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.
- If the black box flight recorder is never damaged during a plane crash, why isn't the whole airplane made out of the stuff?
- Behind every successful man is a woman, behind her is his wife.
- Honolulu - it's got everything. Sand for the children, sun for the wife, sharks for the wife's mother.
- Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance, or a stranger.
Have a great day... :)

Quotes......
"We train our children in competition, acquisitiveness, and even aggression. Then we expect cooperation, respect, and consideration." [Shaykh Fadhlalla Haeri]
"The contraction of the heart comes with the expansion of the ego, and vice versa." [Bayazid Bistami]
"Self-understanding is at least half the battle in self-transformation." [Ragip Baba]
"It is in supporting one another that two hands find strength. A thorny branch can only be cut if the left hand is helping. The right hand raised alone could not cut even a morsel of meat." [Abdellahi Muuse, Somali Poet]
Humility is our connection with our fundamental Being, which has certain qualities:
Acceptance of what is, rather than complaints of 'poor me' or 'why me?'
Openness, rather than preoccupation with 'me'
Gratefulness, rather than resentment for what has happened to 'me'
Generosity, rather than possessiveness
Modesty, rather than the self-importance of 'me'
Forgiveness, rather than blame of others or ourselves
Trust, rather than insecurity and doubt.
[Kabir Helminski in 'The Knowing Heart']
"A man's behavior is the index of the man, and his speech is the index of his understanding." [Ali ibn Abu Talib (RAA)]
"Learn politeness from the impolite." [Egyptian Proverb]
Eye and Mind-openers
Growing old is inevitable, growing UP is optional.
There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
Silence is often misinterpreted but never misquoted.
Faith is the ability to not panic.
Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape.
The most important things in your home are the people.
He who dies with the most toys is still dead.
If you think you are too small to be effective, you have never been in a dark room with a mosquito.
God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
It's all right to sit on your pity pot every now and again. Just be sure to flush when you are done.
Learn from the turtle; it only makes progress when it sticks its neck out.
