Sergio proudly displayed a photo of the shark hook that somehow got embedded in his thumb last time he went out fishing.
 
Fines – Ian, Janey and Steve for being late to the meeting. and Sergio for hooking his thumb instead of a shark.
 
At next Tuesday’s Zoom Meeting Robert Dowell, Principal Merri River School will be our guest speaker.
 
 
I'm the first to admit I know very little about fishing, but isn't the hook meant to go in the fish's mouth Serge? Gives a whole new meaning to livebait.

LAUGHTER, THE BEST MEDICINE

 
Some thoughts to ponder
 
Did you know on Canary Island there is not one Canary?
And in the Virgin Islands, the same thing, not one Canary there either.
 
If you receive an email about canned meat, don't open it, it's Spam.
 
I bought my husband a Pug. Despite the rolls of fat, the wrinkles, the bulging eyes and plain being ugly, the Pug seems to like him.
 
My neighbour banged on my door at 2 a.m. this morning. I didn't let him in.    I mean who turns up to a party in their pajamas and slippers.

Three priests went for a hike one day. It was very hot. They were sweating and were exhausted when they came upon a small lake. Since it was fairly secluded, they took off all their clothes and jumped into the water.
 
Feeling refreshed, the trio decided to pick a few berries while enjoying their "freedom". As they were crossing an open area, a group of ladies came along from town. Unable to get to their clothes in time, two of the priests covered their privates, but the third one covered his face while they ran for cover.
 
After the ladies had left and the men got their clothes back on, the first two priests asked the third why he covered his face rather than his privates.
 
The third replied, "I do not know about you, but in my congregation, it is my face they would recognize."

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
 
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.
 
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.
 
The little girl said, 'When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah'.
The teacher asked, 'What if Jonah went to hell?'
The little girl replied, 'Then you ask him'.

A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work.
 
As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was. The girl replied, 'I'm drawing God.'
 
The teacher paused and said, 'But no one knows what God looks like.'
Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl replied, 'They will in a minute.'

A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six year olds.
 
After explaining the commandment to 'honor' thy Father and thy Mother, she asked, 'Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?'
 
From the back, one little boy (the oldest of a family) answered, 'Thou shall not kill.'

A priest, a pastor and a rabbi walked into a bar. The bartender looked up and said, “What is this, some kind of joke?”

Now that they are retired, my mother and father are discussing all aspects of their future. "What will you do if I die before you do?" Dad asked Mom.
 
After some thought, she said that she'd probably look for a house-sharing situation with three other single or widowed women who might be a little younger than herself, since she is so active for her age.
 
Then Mom asked Dad, "What will you do if I die first?"
 
He replied, "Probably the same thing."

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack.
"Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday."
 
Patty looks at the frog in dispelief and asks his name.
The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager.
Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral.
 
The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.
Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into to back office.
 
She finds the manager and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000 and he wants to use this as collateral."
She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mead, what in the world is this?"
 
The bank manager looks back at her and says....
"It's a knickknack, Patty whack. Give the frog a loan. His old Man's a Rolling Stone.

Due to inherit a fortune when his sickly, widower father died, Charles decided he needed a woman to enjoy it with.
 
Going to a singles' bar, he spotted a woman whose beauty took his breath away.
 
"I'm just an ordinary man," he said, walking up to her, "but in just a week or two, my father will die and I'll inherit 20 million dollars."
 
The woman went home with Charles, and the next day she became his stepmother.
