Fw: This is how a stimulus package works...

It is a slow day in the small Montana town
of Pumphandle, and the streets are deserted.
Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and
everybody is living on credit. A tourist visiting
the area drives through town, stops at the motel,
and lays a $100 bill on the desk saying he wants
to inspect the rooms upstairs to pick one for the
night. As soon as he walks upstairs, the motel
owner grabs the bill and runs next door to pay
his debt to the butcher. The butcher takes the
$100 and runs down the street to retire his debt
to the pig farmer. The pig farmer takes the $100
and heads off to pay his supplier, the Co-op. The
guy at the Co-op takes the $100 and runs to pay
his debt to the local prostitute, who has also been
facing hard times and has had to offer her
"services" on credit. The hooker rushes to the
hotel and pays off her room bill with the hotel
owner. The hotel proprietor then places the $100
back on the counter so the traveler will not suspect
anything. At that moment the traveler comes down
the stairs, states tat the rooms are not satisfactory,
picks up the $100 bill and leaves. No one produced
anything. No one earned anything... However, the
whole town is now out of debt and now looks to the
future with a lot more optimism. And that, ladies
and gentlemen, is how a stimulus package works.

Lemon Meringue

Don't forget, I want it back too, should be interesting.

No cheating.

If all of the eight desserts listed below were sitting in front of
you, which would you choose (sorry, you can only pick one)!

Trust me...this is very accurate.

Pick your dessert, and then look to see what psychiatrists
think about you.

Remember - No Cheating.

Make your choice before you check the meaning.

After taking this dessert personality test, please send this
e-mail on to others, but when you do, be sure to put your
choice of dessert in the subject box above. Also, send it to
the person who sent it to you; Don't forget to change your
dessert choice in the subject box before you forward it.

Here are your choices:

1. Angel Food Cake

2. Brownies

3. Lemon Meringue Pie

4. Vanilla Cake With Chocolate Icing

5. Strawberry Short Cake

6. Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing

7. Ice Cream

8. Carrot Cake



No, you can't change your mind once you scroll down;
so think carefully about what your choice will be.


O.k. - Now that you've made your choice, this is what the
researchers say about you... Scroll Down---No Cheating



1. Angel Food Cake -- Sweet, loving, cuddly. You love all warm
and fuzzy items. A little nutty at times. Sometimes you need an
ice cream cone at the end of the day. Others perceive you as
being childlike and immature at times.

2. Brownies -- You are adventurous, love new ideas, and are a
champion of underdogs and a slayer of dragons. When tempers
flare up you whip out your saber. You are always the oddball
with a unique sense of humor and direction. You tend to be
very loyal.

3. LEMON MERINGUE -- Smooth, sexy, & articulate with your
hands, you are an excellent caregiver and a good teacher. But
don't try to walk and chew gum at the same time. A bit of a diva
at times, you set your own style because you do your own thing.
You shine when it comes to helping others and have many friends.

4. Vanilla Cake with Chocolate Icing -- Fun-loving, sassy,
humorous, not very grounded in life; very indecisive and
lacking motivation. Everyone enjoys being around you, but
you are a practical joker.. Others should be cautious in
making you mad. However, you are a friend for life.

5. Strawberry Shortcake -- Romantic, warm, loving. You care
about other people, can be counted on in a pinch and expect the
same in return. Intuitively keen. You can be very emotional at
times but a true person in every way. You like to do things for
yourself and help others learn about themselves.

6. Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Icing -- Sexy; always ready
to give and receive. Very creative, adventurous, ambitious, and
passionate. You can appear to have a cold exterior but are warm
on the inside. Not afraid to take chances. Will not settle for any-
thing average in life. Love to laugh.

7. Ice Cream -- You like sports, whether it be baseball, football,
basketball, or soccer. If you could, you would like to participate,
but you enjoy watching sports. You don't like to give up the remote
control. You tend to be self-centered and high maintenance.

8. Carrot Cake -- You are a very fun loving person, who likes to
laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you.
You are a very warm hearted person and a little quirky at times.
You have many loyal friends. You were meant to lead and teach
others. A wonderful role model.



Please send to all your friends.....including me! Don't forget - put
your choice of dessert in the 'Subject Box' above before you forward.

Great Pictures

Have to see!


































The bridge (or should it be called tunnel) goes under water
to allow movement of ships . In order for ships to pass, this
bridge is half under the water. You drive down in the water
and then come out on the other side. Truly a marvelous
piece of Engineering! This bridge is between Sweden and
Denmark . The picture was taken from the Sweden side.







Saskatchewan Home Security!



























Thirsty!

Here Come The Mummies on Bob & Tom

Here is a very funny video; I hope that you'll enjoy!

Dillie

Dillie the deer acts just like a house-trained dog as she
walks up the stairs and lounges around on her owner's
bed. Living with vet Melanie Butera, in Canal Fulton,
Ohio, four-year-old Dillie is so spoiled she is served
linguine in bed.
She has even managed to work out where a deer that
lives in a house should go to do her business.

House trained: Dillie the deer polishes off a plate of
linguine in her owners' master bedroom


Taking full advantage of Melanie and her husband Steve's
generous hospitality, Dillie even gets to enjoy their swimming
pool and five acres of property on which to run around on.

Living with the Buteras since she was three days old, Dillie
now knows how to turn lights on and off and how to take ice
from the dispenser in the fridge.

'We took a call from a local farmer at 3 am one wintry night,'
said Melanie, 48. 'Dillie's mother was not taking to her and
he asked if we wanted to try to nurse her back to health...
'We put her on an IV drip because she weighed four pounds
and got her back up and running after around two weeks.

'We then realised that she couldn't go back to the farm
and live with the other deer and she couldn't live with
our horses because they scared her too much.'


Deer's best friend: Dillie plays around with Lady, the
dog of the house

Leaving her in the capable hands of her eight-year-old
poodle Lady, Melanie decided that Dillie was going to
become the Butera household's latest pet.

'She developed cataracts and this meant that she had to
be cared for in a sensitive manner,' explained Melanie.

'She would hang around Lady and she very quickly
learned to act like a dog.

'This became apparent to us when we came home one
day and couldn't find her downstairs.

'We walked upstairs and found her standing on our bed
with Lady. She had obviously learned a few tricks from
the old dog.'

Family: Dr Melanie Butera and her husband Steve
Heathman share their bed in their home in Canal Fulton,
Ohio, with Dillie and Lady


Dillie slept for the first few years at the Buteras' home in
their bed with Lady.

'I suppose it was quite a cute get together, said Melanie.
'Me, my husband, Dillie and Lady all sharing the same bed.

'My husband Steve always liked the way that Dillie would
warm his feet up when she lied on them.'

Fully house-trained, Dillie now wears a GPS collar due to
a frightening runaway incident last year.

'She went missing because a gate was left open on our
property when she was out roaming,' said Melanie.

'So we got this collar fitted to her to keep our minds at
ease.'

Enjoying a wide variety of meals, Dillie's favourite is ice
cream and coffee, topped with frozen ice shavings.


Stairway to heaven: Dillie has the run of the house, and
has even learned how to use the toilet
