Yup, 'tis an auto-poster then. . . you could view the joke of the day & post it manually, when you like it, with an intro & unique subject line. . . >> #1: We only roast the ones we love > Never mind the joke about the Canadians in Hell....and this one location > in Michigan being warmer than the town of Hell...so "they're hotter than > Hell". :P Someone in your country, was looking at a weather map & noted the summer temps above & below the 49th parallel as: 28, 32, 29, and 94, 96, 101 respectively and asked, "Wow what a temperature difference! Is that how they decided where to put the border?" > ... Political Season: Does that mean we can shoot them?? Depends whom you ask. . . Seems reasonable to me. . . Most of my group wanted to go mushroom hunting. I call them the morel majority. Q: What is the sentencing when you get caught hunting illegally? A: Murder in the first deergree Q: How do planets staying busy during hunting season? A: By shooting stars Q: Why did the redneck bring a bazooka deer hunting? A: He wanted to get the biggest bang for his buck. I read an article about Eskimo hunting practices today Their method for hunting polar bears was the most interesting. They would start a fire out on a deep snow bank, and essentially melt a hole in the snow. Once the hole was big enough they would stop feeding it firewood and let it burnout on its own. Once the fire had gone down and was nothing more than smoldering ashes with a little bit of smoke, they would line the edge of the fire pit with snow peas. All they had to do from there is hide and wait. Once a bear caught scent of the smoke and starts to investigate, the bear would eventually start eating some of the peas. Then they sneak up behind it and kick it in the ash-hole. --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-6 * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757) .
