Final Confession
Brittany was on her deathbed, with her husband Adam at her side.
She kept trying to tell him something, but he kept saying, "Shhhh, don't worry now darling, just rest."
"But honey," she whispered, "I need to make a confession before I die... I slept with your brother, your best friend, and your father."
"Don't worry about it, sweetie," replied Adam as he wiped the tears from Brittany's cheek, "I know. Why do you think I poisoned you?"

Why wedding ring on the fourth finger?
Why should the wedding ring be worn on the fourth finger?
There is a beautiful and convincing explanation given by the Chinese.
Your thumb represents your Parents
Your index finger represents your Siblings
Your middle finger represents yourself
Your ring finger represents your Life Partner
Your last (pinkie) finger represents your Children
Firstly, open your palms (face to face), bend the middle fingers and hold them together -- back to back. Then open and hold the remaining three fingers and the thumb tip to tip. As shown in the above picture:
Now, try to separate your thumbs (representing your parents) they will open, because your parents are not destined to live with you lifelong and have to leave you sooner or later.
Please join your thumbs as before and separate your index fingers (representing your siblings) they will also open, because your brothers and sisters will have their own families and will have to lead their own separate lives.
Now join the index fingers and separate your little fingers (representing your children) they will open too, because the children also will get married and settle down on their own someday.
Finally, join your little fingers and try to separate your ring fingers (representing your spouse). You will be surprised to see that you just CANNOT, because husband and wife have to remain together all their lives -- through thick and thin!

Joke of the Week
Pre-Nuptial Agreements
A secretary for a foreign embassy was entertaining a wealthy foreign ambassador during lunch at a very expensive restaurant in New York.
The ambassador was so enthralled by the beauty and presence of this secretary that he asked her to marry him. The secretary was startled, but remembered that her boss told her never to insult foreign dignitaries, so she decided to let him down easy.
"I'll only marry you under three conditions."
"Anything, anything," said the ambassador.
"First, you must buy me a 14-karat gold wedding band with a 72 carat diamond, along with a 28-inch studded matching necklace for our engagement."
Without hesitation, the ambassador picked up his cellular phone, called his personal accountant, told him the instructions, and said, "Yes, yes, I buy, I buy!"
The secretary thought that her first request was too easy, so she thought of a more difficult situation.
"Second, I want you to build me a 58-acre mansion in the richest part of the Hamptons along with a 40-acre summer home in the sweetest vineyards of France."
The ambassador picked up his phone, called his personal broker in New York, then called another broker in France, and after his quick conversation, he said, "Yes, yes, I build, I build!"
The secretary was very startled, and knew she must think of a final request that would be impossible to live up to.
"Finally," she said. "I'll only marry you if you have a 10-inch penis."
A sad face befell the ambassador, and he cupped his face in his hands. After weeping in his native language for a few minutes, the ambassador slowly lifted his head and said, "Ok, ok, I cut, I cut!"

Fishing
-------
Two guys are talking about fishing.
One says to the other "I am NEVER going to take my kids fishing with
me, ever again!"
"That bad, huh?"
"They did everything wrong! EVERYTHING! They talked too much, they
made the boat rock constantly, they tried to stand up in the boat,
they baited the hook wrong, used the wrong lures, and worst of all,
they caught more fish than me!"

Four Worms and a Lesson
A minister decided that a visual demonstration would
Add emphasis to his Sunday sermon.
Four worms were placed into four separate jars.
The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.
The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke.
The third worm was put into a container of chocolate syrup.
The fourth worm was put into a container of good clean soil.
At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the following results:
The first worm in alcohol - Dead.
The second worm in cigarette smoke - Dead
Third worm in chocolate syrup - Dead
Fourth worm in good clean soil - Alive.
So the Minister asked the congregation -
What can you learn from this demonstration?
Maxine was si tting in the back, quickly raised her hand and said,
"As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won't have worms!"
That pretty much ended the service --

One Life
He was born in a stable,
in an obscure village,
the child of a peasant woman.
From there He traveled,
less than 200 miles.
He never wrote a book.
He never held an office.
He did none of the things one
usually associates with greatness.
He became a nomadic preacher,
Popular opinion turned against Him,
He was betrayed by a close friend,
And His other friends ran away.
He was unjustly condemned to death,
Crucified on a cross among common thieves,
On a hill overlooking the town dump,
And when dead, laid in a borrowed grave.
Twenty one centuries have come and gone,
Empires have risen and fallen,
Mighty armies have marched,
And powerful rulers have reigned.
Yet no one has affected men as much as He,
He is the central figure of the human race,
He is the Messiah, the Son of God,
JESUS CHRIST.

“Me too!” says the second guy, “What street do you live on?”
“Forty-Ninth Street,” answers the first guy.
“Me too!” says the second guy, becoming increasingly excited. “What's your address?”
''951.”
“Me too! Wow, this is incredible! What are your parents' names?”
“John and Cathy,” says the first guy.
“Me too!” shouts the second guy. “I wonder if we're related!?”
Meanwhile, the bartenders are changing shifts and the guy coming on asks if anything is new.
“No,” says the first bartender, “just the Smith twins, drunk again.”

The Farmer's Wife
------------ -----
Jack decided to go skiing with his buddy, Bob. They loaded up Jack's
minivan and headed north. After driving for a few hours, they got
caught in a terrible blizzard. They pulled into a nearby farm and
asked the very attractive woman who answered the door if they could
spend the night.
"I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house
all to myself, but I'm recently widowed," she explained. "I'm afraid
the neighbours will talk if I let you stay in my house."
"Don't worry," Jack said. "We'll be happy to sleep in the barn. And if
the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light." The lady agreed,
and the two men found their way to the barn and settled in for the
night. Come morning, the weather had cleared, and they got on their
way They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing.
About nine months later, Jack got an unexpected letter from an
attorney. It took him a few minutes to figure it out, but he finally
determined that it was from the attorney of that attractive widow he
had met on the ski weekend
He dropped in on his friend Bob and asked, "Bob, do you remember that
good-looking widow from the farm we stayed at on our ski holiday up
North?"
"Yes, I do."
"Did you happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the
house and pay her a visit?"
"Yes," Bob said, a little embarrassed about being found out. "I have
to admit that I did."
"And did you happen to use my name instead of telling her your name?"
Bob's face turned red and he said, "Yeah, sorry, buddy. I'm afraid I
did. Why do you ask?"
"She just died and left me everything."

Jack decided to go skiing with his buddy, Bob. They loaded up Jack's
minivan and headed north. After driving for a few hours, they got
caught in a terrible blizzard. They pulled into a nearby farm and
asked the very attractive woman who answered the door if they could
spend the night.
"I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house
all to myself, but I'm recently widowed," she explained. "I'm afraid
the neighbours will talk if I let you stay in my house."
"Don't worry," Jack said. "We'll be happy to sleep in the barn. And if
the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light." The lady agreed,
and the two men found their way to the barn and settled in for the
night. Come morning, the weather had cleared, and they got on their
way They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing.
About nine months later, Jack got an unexpected letter from an
attorney. It took him a few minutes to figure it out, but he finally
determined that it was from the attorney of that attractive widow he
had met on the ski weekend
He dropped in on his friend Bob and asked, "Bob, do you remember that
good-looking widow from the farm we stayed at on our ski holiday up
North?"
"Yes, I do."
"Did you happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the
house and pay her a visit?"
"Yes," Bob said, a little embarrassed about being found out. "I have
to admit that I did."
"And did you happen to use my name instead of telling her your name?"
Bob's face turned red and he said, "Yeah, sorry, buddy. I'm afraid I
did. Why do you ask?"
"She just died and left me everything."

Filipino Love Story
A Beautiful Filipino Love Story.....
Bing, a beautiful Filipina fell in love with Edong. She planned to
marry very soon. She was so happy about her wedding plans, she decided
to tell her Tatay (dad).
Her Tatay told her, "Bing, you'll have to find another. Your Nanay
(mom) does not know this, but Edong is your half-brother".
So Bing forgot about her Edong, and soon planned to marry Ricardo.
But after telling Tatay again, he said, "Bing, anak ko (my child),
there's trouble still. You cannot marry Ricardo. Please don't tell
your mother, but Ricardo and Edong are your half-brothers."
Bing had no choice but to go to her Nanay. Nanay already knew and said
"Anak ko, do what makes you happy. Marry Ricardo or marry Edong,
because you are not related to your Tatay."
