Nasty Weather Headed to Jersey Shore

Our weather radio woke us up this morning to inform us of pending bad weather.  NOAA issued a Tornado Warning for our area until 5PM today.  It's scary since tornadoes are not common here -- even though we did have one about 2 years ago.  After that tornado, I decided we better get a weather radio.  A thunderstorm just rolled thru here -- not too severe -- now the sun is out again! yea!  Weather radio still sending out warning -- still effect until 5PM.  Crazy weather is happening all over the country...BUT our "leaders" are saying there's no global warming.  I think I'll believe the scientists, instead.  It may save my life.

TGIF

TWENTY NINE LINES TO MAKE YOU SMILE 

1
.. My husband and I divorced over religious differences. He thought he was God and I didn't. 
2
.. I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it.
3.. 
Some people are alive only because it's illegal to kill them. 
4.. 
I used to have a handle on life, but it broke.     
5.. Don't take life too seriously; No one gets out alive. 
6.. 
You're just jealous because the voices only talk to me 
7.. 
Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. 
8.. 
Earth is the insane asylum for the universe. 
9.. 
I'm not a complete idiot -- Some parts are just missing. 
10.. Out of my mind.  Back in five minutes. 
11.. 
NyQuil, the stuffy, sneezy, why-the-heck-is-the-room-spinning medicine. 
12.. God must love stupid people; He made so many. 
13.. 
The gene pool could use a little chlorine. 
14.. 
Consciousness: That annoying time between naps. 
15.. Ever stop to think, and forget to start again? 
16.. 
Being "over the hill" is much better than being under it! 
17.. 
Wrinkled Was Not One of the Things I Wanted to Be When I Grew up. 
18
.PROCRASTINATE  NOW

19.. 
I Have a Degree in Liberal Arts;  Do You Want Fries With That?   
20.. 
A hangover is the wrath of grapes. 
21.. 
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a cash advance. 
22.. Stupidity is not a handicap. Park elsewhere! 
23..
 They call it PMS because Mad Cow Disease was already taken. 
24.. 
He who dies with the most toys is nonetheless DEAD. 
25.. 
A picture is worth a thousand words, but it uses up three thousand times the memory. 
26.. 
Ham and eggs...A day's work for a chicken, a lifetime commitment for a pig. 
27.. 
The trouble with life is there's no background music. 
28.. 
The original point and click interface was a Smith & Wesson. 
29.. 
I smile because I don't know what the hell is going on. 

Appreciate every single thing you have, especially your friends! 
  Life is too short and friends are too few!

Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably,

And never regret anything that made you smile....
