The Shoebox Funny

it's teh funny.


THE SHOEBOX


A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years.
They had shared everything. They had talked about
everything. They had kept no secrets from each other
except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the
top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband
never to open or ask her about.

For all of these years, he had never thought about the box,
but one day the little old woman got very sick and the
doctor said she would not recover.

In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old
man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife's
bedside.

She agreed that it was time that he should know what
was in the box. When he opened it, he found two
crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000.

He asked her about the contents.

'When we were to be married,' she said, ' my grandmother
told me the secret of a happy marriage was to never
argue. She told me that If I ever got angry with you,
I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll.'

The little old man was so moved; he had to fight back
tears. Only two precious dolls were in the box. She
had only been angry with him two times in all those
years of living and loving. He almost burst with
happiness.

'Honey,' he said, 'that explains the doll, but what
about all of this money? Where did it come from?'

'Oh,' she said, 'that's the money I made from
selling the dolls.'

Muppet Crimmas Video

Yes... SamuraiFrog already found this and passed it along
so now i'm taking up the bells and ringing this new muppet
viral video onto you all.

Thank you SF for the share btw!

doesn't feel like holidays

it's not feeling like holiday time. So.Cal's weather
is healthier for me (minus the smog of course) than
that of snow and ice - but it doesn't feel like the
holiday season. Too much decoration propaganda comes
out for "Christmas" before Halloween.
I'm sick right now so it could just be me being crabby.
My Brobro is far away in Texas with his new wifey in
his cute new house. (i got a tour of his house via
skype and it was kickass)
The in laws are that type of family that like never
get together and don't have that "family" feel.
I love the friends i've made here and some of them
are without traditional "family" so we come together
in times of need like a family - but... there is
still nothing like really real family.

I'm homesick for my brother and it's not feasible
to see him right now. Lucky for me I'm using Brobro
to test out skype. It makes me hella happy to see
his goofy face.
