Dumb but Funny Emails

I receive tons of junk email from everyone.

I sort it, trash some, save others for when I need a good laugh (though now that I've found TBD I can get laughs by the minute).

My parents in their 70s have certainly mastered the internet - and I receive a constant stream of "junk" from them (and when I mistakenly send something to them I usually get back the response "Well Kathy don't you remember I sent that to you last summer on the 27th.").

Does this happen to you?

Do you keep it?

Share it?

Trash it?

BTW: For some reason Mom loves anything in words, Dad always send images. How about you? Notice a difference in what men and women send?

Ok, I'll share what Mom just sent to me and check back later to see what gems you have.

Ramblings of a Retired Mind

I was thinking about how a status symbol of today is those cell phones that everyone has clipped onto their belt or purse.

I can't afford one. So, I'm wearing my garage door opener.

I also made a cover for my hearing aid and now I have what they call blue teeth, I think.

You know, I spent a fortune on deodorant before I realized that people didn't like me anyway.

I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans!

I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is 'when you still have something on the ball, but you are just too tired to bounce it.'

I thought about making a fitness movie, for folks my age, and call it 'Pumping Rust.'

I have gotten that dreaded furniture disease. That's when your chest is falling into your drawers!

I know, when people see a cat's litter box, they always say, 'Oh, have you got a cat?' Just once I want to say, 'No, it's for company!'

Employment application blanks always ask who is to be notified in case of an emergency.' I think you should write, 'A Good Doctor!'

'Enjoy Your Days & Love Your Life.'

Because: 'Life is a journey to be savored'

My Mom emails again:

"Whatever you give a woman, she's going to multiply.

If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby.

If you give her a house, she'll give you a home.

If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal.

If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart.

She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.

So - if you give her any crap, you will receive a ton of ****."

Here's an email I received that a woman sent in earnest:

Subject: Offered: Koi Fish (FREE)

Hello!

I have a rather sad situation. I have a turtle who befriended a fish...they have lived together for over a year..but the turtle has decided he would like to eat the fish.

The fish is a beautiful Koi. If anyone has a pond or would like a fish please let me know!

He is in good shape other than a few bites taken out of his tail.

That's funny Paula.

Sounds like some of the Freecycle items that are offered around here.
