Wal-Mart announced that, sometime in 2007, it will begin offering customers a new discount item ---- Wal-Mart's own brand of wine. The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest & Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the $2 - $5 range.

Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a market for inexpensive wine," said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at University of Arkansas, Bentonville.

"But the right name is important."

Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart wine brand.
The top surveyed names in order of popularity were:

10. Chateau Traileur Parc
9. White Trashfindel
8. Big Red Gulp
7. World Championship Riesling
6. NASCARbernet
5. Chef Boyardeaux
4. Peanut Noir
3. I Can't Believe it's not Vinegar
2. Grape Expectations
1. Nasti Spumante

The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum), red meat (Squirrel) or Catfish.

P.S. Don't bother writing back saying that this is a hoax. I know possum is not a white meat.

After a long night of making love, he notices a photo of another man on her nightstand by the bed. He begins to worry...

"Is this your husband?" he nervously asks.

"No, silly," she replies, snuggling up to him.

"Your boyfriend, then?" he continues.

"No, not at all," she says, nibbling away at his ear.

"Is it your dad or your brother?" he inquires, hoping to be reassured.

"No, no, no! You are so hot when you're jealous!" she answers.

"Well, who in the hell is he, then?" he demands.

"That's me before the surgery."

Has your brain been re-wired with the "F" word?

i learned an interesting fact from my father's doctor when he was being treated for a stroke.

mom had mentioned that even though dad couldn't speak well enough to ask for a glass of water he could clearly say, "goddammit".

the dr. explained that epithets are from a different part of the brain and this area had not been affected by the stroke.. i found this very interesting.

Was my post altered?

You know, boys, a nuclear reactor is a lot like a woman. You just have to read the manual and press the right buttons.

well, my 17 year old has left home in a horribly negative way.

she has had many problems for many years.

she ran away a year ago, we dragged her home, took her to the hospital for bulimia and suicidal tendencies.

Yesterday was a really really bad day for me. One thing my husband said though is helping me. He said that I am the one paying for her decisions and that it is ruining my life, this baby's life before it is even born, his life and ultimately our 12 year old's life. That I have to pull it together for 4 other lives now.
I am trying.

Awe Jez my heart aches for you. I know too well when a child strays we tend to blame ourselves, what did we do wrong? Please don't stay there too long it can truly hold you back from experiencing all the wonderful joys of life right in front of your eyes like you husband said.

Don't waste any more time on someone who isn't ready to receive the love you have to offer her right now. Some day she'll come around that's the best you can hope for. I know it sounds harsh but really she is controlling you from miles away and ruining 4 other peoples lives in the process. Does she really get to have that power over you?

Have a good cry, morn her loss and move forward to all the wonderfulness of the new life within you and a husband who is so far standing by your side don't let that slip away, don't let her do that to you.

Big hugs I know I've been there and am doing that right now.....sigh. We have to be the strong ones, it does teach them by example.

I hardly used the "F" like you I thought it one of the most deplorable words in the English language, or any other language for that matter.

After my life went to hell....oh I used all kinds of other cuss words all my life much to my Mother's chagrin she reasoned that since our Dad cussed like a sailor how was she able to stop us kids but she did always correct us! So back to the story....after learning of my X's affair and the whole bamshuckled ordeal dealing with the Elders and all, I started using the F work a lot....still do, although I do speak proper out of respect of others most of the time.

My husband even sometimes blushes when I get going and he's a big strapping construction worker! LOL I ain't ashamed of nuttin! I honestly chalk it up to holding things in so much when I was a JW that it's a release for me to just say what I darn well mean to say and some words, well sometimes you only need that one word that says it all.
