Just to end the week with a smile...

Her sister was also sick, fever an sore throat, her brother had a low grade fever and ached all over. I wasn't the best either, sore throat and fever. There must be something going around, her father even got hot last night.



Little sister's birthday is Saturday, and hopefully Sunday Dottie and I are going to slip out early and see Jason Bourne; may the weekend be kind to each of you!

Thanks for the smile Alan, we have these posted up in our photocopy room at school too.
Have a great weekend, I just watched The Bourne Ultimatum today. It's well worth the money to see.

I hear things all the time at work or on television that absolutely "jar" me at how wrong they sound; somewhere all the copy editors that ever worked are turning over in their graves!

Not having truly studied, if I really "knew English" I wonder how many more there are!

My "favorite" made me crazy for years before one of the local stations finally retired it:

"The following was pre-recorded earlier for re-broadcast at this time"!

:o)

Those are hysterical! I hate when I'm "adminstrating" haha

Jennifer said...

Number 14 is the most likely excuse at my house. At least this week, anyway -- it's been a week of Mondays!

Thanks for the chuckles, Alan.

I think all of these notes were written by our President.

Hope you enjoy the movie,
My older Bro was very disappointed.
He preferred the first two.
He thought they ruined the story
to give it more action, kind of
Ang Lee style, which he doesn't like.
I'll wait for the video..
We had a break in the heat today..so I am going to take my book and go hit the deck..Have a good Sunday..

Thanks, i sure needed a good laugh.

This is hilarious! I could fake better for myself when I was in fifth grade! :-D

Hope your day's a good one.

Oh, and thanks for telling me more about PJ Jones!

Amazing! It's enough to make a teacher cringe with all those grammatical errors. But...wow, that's funny!
