Tuesday, 14 February 2012.
One weekend when Jeanne and I were conducting business in the Houston area, we decided to attend a “Sacrament Meeting” in the Friendswood Stake, in Friendswood, Texas, just south of Houston.
I had three separate ladders fastened to the top of the luggage rack of my truck’s camper. Just as Jeanne and I were getting out of our truck, a man pulled up beside our truck. As he emerged from his vehicle, he saw the three ladders. He asked me what the ladders were for.
Without “cracking a smile,” I said, “Isn’t this is The Church of JESUS CHRST of LATTER-Day Saints?”
The man said that it was. “Well,” I said, “We...brought our own’ LADDERS!’”

Friday, 10 February 2012: In 1961, when I was in the Protestant Children’s Home located at West Woodlawn and Bandera Road, in west central San Antonio, someone told me that he had heard that Ms. Williams, my Case Worker who had exiled me at the Protestant Children's home for almost 5 years, after she was responsible for putting my 2 brothers and 3 sisters up for adoption, had died of a Cerebral Hemorrhage. I was about 14 at the time...

He asked me how I felt about that piece of news. The best way that I can describe my feelings would be to tell the following anecdote . . .
Adolf Hitler was obsessed with the occult. He planned war strategies based upon astrology.
One day, “The Fuehrer” asked his astrologers this question: “When will I die?”
Afraid to forecast his death, his astrologers asked for a few days to consult their charts.
After several days of coming up empty-handed, they fearfully approached Hitler and said:
“As far as we can tell, my Fuehrer, you will die on a Jewish holiday.”
‘But what Jewish holiday?” Hitler wanted to know.
My Fuehrer, any day that you die will be a Jewish holiday!”

| Tuesday, 7 February 2012: Even as a teen-ager in High School, I had a warped sense of humor. During one of many Psychological Tests, I came across a question which read, "Do you feel that you are persecuted by your friends? |
|
I replied, "tongue in cheek," "NO, I have no friends!"

| Saturday, 4 February 2012: I opened my E-mail this morning to discover that I had a half-dozen "Happy Birthday" wishes from my Facebook Friends. I wrote back to advise everyone that while I appreciated their kind words, my birthday wasn't until next month, 4 March 2012. I was then advised that I had erroneously stated that my birthday was today. |
|
Being the comedian that I am, I wrote back and said, "Maybe that is because I considered being born on 4 February 1947, but I was such a procrastinator that I didn't get around to it until the following March! How's THAT for KICKS?"
(My poor, pregant mother was not happy at all...)
