Quick update today as I am behind schedule. I still have quite a lot to do to get this Thursday's quiz finished so I'm going to spend the next three hours on research and finding some good questions. I am also going to at least start a music tape and the guest round which this week is Initial Success. Oh a special message for Mary Ann: mwaaah xxxx.

Joke of the Day: Catching The Bear

Two men went bear hunting. While one stayed in the cabin, the other went out looking for a bear.

He soon found a huge bear, shot at it but only wounded it.

The enraged bear charged toward him, he dropped his rifle and started running for the cabin as fast as he could.

He ran pretty fast but the bear was just a little faster and gained on him with every step.

Just as he reached the open cabin door, he tripped and fell flat on his face.

Too close behind to stop, the bear tripped over him and went rolling into the cabin.

The man jumped up, closed the cabin door and yelled to his friend inside, "You skin this one while I go and get another!"
