Well I hate to say this, but
due to unavoidable changes I will no longer be able to up-date
qccruz-news after August 01/2009.
Before that happens, I would like to thank everyone who has submitted
photos, stories,
events or enjoyed what I have been able to offer. Without your
support this endeavor
would not have made it one year let alone eight.
Please remember our advertisers and area motorcycle clubs and
organizations.
Their contributions and belief in our local Rider community has been
humbling. They deserve
our support.
Developing qccruz-news has been a wonderful and rewarding experience.
One I will never
forget. Thank YOU!

Subject:
AND THEN THE FIGHT STARTED
When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her someplace
expensive... so, I took her to a gas station...
And then the fight started....
After retiring, I went to the
Social Security office to apply for Social
Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license
to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my
wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would
have to go home and come back later.
The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing
my curly silver hair.
She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me, and
she processed my Social Security application.
When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the
Social Security office.
She said, "you should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten
disability, too".
And then the fight started...
Thanks
Sarah
The
World's Shortest Fairy Tale
Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl '
Will you marry me?'
The girl said, 'NO!' And the guy lived happily ever after and
rode motorcycles and went fishing and hunting and played golf a
lot and drank beer and scotch and left the toilet seat up and
farted whenever he wanted.
THE END
Thanks pndalex
Wouldn't it be
nice if whenever we messed up our life we could simply press 'Ctrl
Alt Delete' and start all over?
AMEN, AMEN !!
thanks Jim. |
