Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Irish Blessings
May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

For My Merry Friends in Law Enforcement -

Cop Quips: Sense of Humor Police style

So you thought police officers didn't have a sense of humor.... The following were taken off of actual police car videos around the country.

#15 "Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they're new. They'll stretch out after you wear them awhile."

#14 "Take your hands off the car, and I'll make your birth certificate a worthless document."

#13 "If you run, you'll only go to jail tired."

#12 "Can you run faster than 1,200 feet per second? In case you didn't know, that is the average speed of a 9mm bullet fired from my gun."

#11 "So you don't know how fast you were going. I guess that means I can write anything I want on the ticket, huh?"

#10"Yes, Sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don't think it will help. ! Oh . Did I mention that I am the shift supervisor?"

#9 "Warning! You want a warning? O.K., I'm warning you not to do that again or I'll give you another ticket."

#8 "The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?"

#7 "Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy, and step in elephant stuff!

#6 "Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven."

#5 "In God we trust, all others we run through NCIC."

#4 "Just how big were those two beers?"

#3 "No sir, we don't have quotas anymore. We used to have quotas but now we're allowed to write as many tickets as we want."

#2 "I'm glad to hear the Chief of Police is a good personal friend of yours. At least you know someone who can post your bail."

#1 "You didn't think we give pretty women tickets? You're right, we
don't... Sign here.

lol!
See any favorites?
:D

5 Star Family Fun!

Just saw Wallace and Gromit in the Curse of the Ware Rabbit.
Yep.
May be the graphic artist in me but I stand by my title up there...
this movie was 5 star family fun and maybe even worth the time and trouble to buy one's own copy for keeps!
I LOVED this movie.
Cheerios!

Spring Break!

Whooooo Hooooo!
Maybe I can get something done around this place?
Maybe I can catch-up with my blogger friends?
Maybe I can grab some "ME" time?
Ah... just considering the possibilities...

Sweet springtime is my time is your time is our time
for springtime
is love time
and viva sweet love.

Happy Birthday to Mother

Today is Mom's.
We decided, early on in the week, that lunch would be good.
Thought about a movie but then work flip-flopped on me.
So lunch for sure.
I got the steller idea to call my brother, last night and ask if he knew what today was going to be. That boy sure did!
So I invited him along on our luncheon.
We all met up, downtown, at the Beiroc Cafe. (Pronounced BEER-Rock)
Where we discuss movie options amongst other things.
The nephew (previously pictured right here on Cheerios&HeavyCream) had wished his beloved grandma a happy birthday, earlier in the day and had offered the 5 star suggestion that we all just rent "Walk the Line". =)
Our fear, (later confirmed at the video store) was that it'd be so popular we wouldn't be able to find a copy of it too rent.
Then my brother, bless his heart, pointed to this little advertisement tent, you've seen the like, little specials of events or treats, sitting up 'pup-tent' style on diner tables.
"Why don't you just check this out?"
It's a special showing of an old classic at our towns' historic little Fox Theater - the even is actually a fund raiser for a prospective politician. We think it'd be a fun way to enjoy ourselves in celebration of Mom's B-day. Who cares if we have to wait a day? The price seems right. (I think Mom's even a little bit excited. Kinda like taking a little trip back to yester-year, for her. "1956! That's even a year before [thequeenofpanic] was born!") 1956 - she would have barely been into her 20s. Hehehee. Hope the temps are just as nice as today's 70s....
Also hoping you have a classic week end, too!
(See the pix I scanned. I made off with the little ad. I'm gonna make it into a Happy Birthday Card for Mom! Don't Moms like the homemade stuff best?)

I was afraid of this...
