A Dog's Purpose? (From a 6-year-old).
  • Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.
  • I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.
  • As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.
  • The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.
  • The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.
  • Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, ''I know why.''
  • Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation. It has changed the way I try to live.
  • He said,' People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life -- like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?''
  • The Six-year-old continued,' Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long.''

Defective Muscle
  • Bob can't get an erection so he goes to the doctor.
  • The doctor tells him the muscles at the base of his penis
  • are broken down and there's nothing he can do unless
  • he's willing to try an experimental surgery.
  • Bob asks what the surgery is and the doctor tells him they
  • take some muscles from the base of a baby elephant's trunk,
  • insert them in the base of his penis, and hope for the best.
  • Bob says that sounds pretty scary but the thought of never
  • having sex again is even scarier, so he says ok.
  • The doctor goes ahead and performs the surgery and
  • about 6 weeks later he gives Bob the go ahead to "try
  • out his new equipment".
  • Bob takes his wife out to dinner. While at dinner Bob
  • starts feeling incredible pressure in his pants. It gets
  • unbearable and he figures no one can see him so he
  • undoes his pants.
  • No sooner does he do this than his penis pops out of
  • his pants, rolls across the table, grabs an apple from
  • the fruit basket, and disappears back into his pants.
  • His wife sits in shock for a few moments, and then gets
  • a sly look on her face. She says, "That was pretty cool!
  • Can you do that again?"
  • With his eyes watering and a painful look on his face,
  • Bob says, "Probably, but I don't know if I can fit another
  • apple up my ass."

Your IPS Address → darnay.com

Click the link…

I was shocked to find my location on Earth so very EASILY!! It’s really unbelievable.  I was surprised to learn that such technology exists. Don’t need a tom-tom or tom cat or Garmin or whatever —-

It uses your IPS address and finds the exact location of any internet user in seconds.  It uses a sophisticated time based algorithm to do so.  Try it and find your own location on the earth.

Your location will pop up in a new window in about 10 seconds or so.

A Daughters Request
  • My daughter just walked into the living room and said "Dad cancel my
  • allowance, rent my room out, throw all my clothes out of the window,
  • take my TV, stereo, iPhone and jewellery to the charity shop. Sell my
  • car, take my front door key and throw me out of the house".
  • Well she didn't actually put it like that. She said, "Dad this is my
  • new boyfriend, Mohamed."
