Big Waves Fun For Some Others Not

Big waves can be fun for some, like board riders. For others, they can be a disaster on land or at sea. Whatever, the power of water is awesome.

Plus 3 short stories, good for some, but others no

“Lemon Pickers Needed” – ad in the Gayndah Times newspaper.

Ms. Sally Mulligan of, Launceston, Tasmania, read it, and decided to apply for one of the jobs that most Tasmanians are not willing to do.

She submitted her application for a job as a Lemon Fruit picker but seemed far too qualified for the job.

She has a liberal arts degree from the University of Tasmania (Sandy Bay) , and a master’s degree from Monash University (Melbourne).

For a number of years, she had worked as a social worker, and also as a school teacher.

The farm owner studied her application, frowned, and said, “I see that you are well educated, and have an impressive resume.

“However, I have to ask you, have you had any actual experience in picking lemons?”

“Well, as a matter of fact, I have,” she said… “I’ve been divorced three times, owned two dud cars, voted twice for Annastacia Palaszczuk, and once for Anthony Albanese.”

She started work yesterday..!!

Then we have the Clinton’s at a baseball game

Bill and Hillary are at a Yankees home game, sitting in the first row, with the Secret Service people directly behind them.

One of the Secret Service guys leans forward and whispers something to Bill. At first, Clinton stares at the guy, looks at Hillary, looks back at the agent, and shakes his head “no.”

The agent then says. “Mr. President, it was a unanimous request of the entire team, from the owner of the team to the bat boy.”

Bill hesitates, but begins to change his mind when the agent tells him the fans would love it.

Bill shrugs his shoulders and says, “Ho-Kay. If that is what the people want. C’mere Hilly baby.”

With that, Bill gets up, grabs Hillary by her collar and the seat of her pants, lifts her up, and tosses her right over the wall onto the field. She gets up kicking, swearing, screaming. “Bill you f#@k.”

The crowd goes absolutely wild. Fans are jumping up and down, cheering, hooting and hollering, and high-fiving.

Bill is bowing, smiling and waving to the crowd.

He leans over to the agent and says, “How about that, I would have never believed how much everyone would enjoy that!”

Noticing the agent has gone totally pale, he asks what is wrong.

The agent replies. “Sir, I said they want you to throw out the first pitch.”

But getting old can be a problem at times.

Two medical students were walking along the street when they saw an old man walking with his legs spread apart. He was stiff-legged and walking slowly.

One student said to his friend: “I’m sure that poor old man has the Peltry Syndrome. Those people walk just like that.”

The other student says: “No, I don’t think so. The old man surely has the Zovitzki Syndrome. He walks slowly and his legs are apart, just as we learned in class.”

Since they couldn’t agree they decided to ask the old man. They approached him and one of the students said to him, “We’re medical students and couldn’t help, but notice the way you walk, but we couldn’t agree on the syndrome you might have. Could you tell us what it is?”

The old man said, “I’ll tell you, but first you tell me what you two fine medical students think. ”The first student said, “I think it’s the Peltry Syndrome.” The old man said, “You thought – but you are wrong.”

The other student said, “I think you have Zovitzki Syndrome.” The old man said, “You thought – but you are wrong.”

So they asked him, “Well, old timer, what do you have? “The old man said: “I thought it was WIND – but I was wrong, too!”.
