HOW MANY ZEROS IN A BILLION



How many zeros in a billion??? Good shit…

This is too true to be funny.

The next time you hear a politician use the

word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about

whether you want the 'politicians' spending

YOUR tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,

but one advertising agency did a good job of

putting that figure into some perspective in

one of it's releases.
A.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

B.

A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

C.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were

living in the Stone Age.

D.

A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

E.

A billion dollars ago was only

8 hours and 20 minutes,

at the rate our government

is spending it.


While this thought is still fresh in our brain...

let's take a look at New Orleans ...

It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division.


Louisiana Senator,
Mary Landrieu (D)

is presently asking Congress for

250 BILLION DOLLARS

to rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number...

what does it mean?



A.

Well... if you are one of the 484,674 residents of New Orleans

(every man, woman, and child)

you each get $516,528.


B.

Or... if you have one of the 188,251 homes in

New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.


C.

Or... if you are a family of four,

your family gets $2,066,012.



Washington, D. C.

HELLO!



Are all your calculators broken??

"Happy Mail" Wanted!
Children fighting for their lives have very little to smile about. You can change that by sending them some "Happy Mail." Cheery cards give these kids a few more smiles, a little more hope, and a reason to get out of bed each day.
Experience the satisfaction of making a sick child's day and giving them something to look forward to. Send a card and a hug -- one of the smiles you create just might be your own!

Mammograms Funnies




Had to share - this is funny! Be sure and read the exercises at the end... before your next mammography.

Mammograms (Honestly, a mammogram is not this bad!!! *LOL* So let nothing prevent you from having this procedure done... it could save your life!!!!) Many women are afraid of their first mammogram, but there is no need to worry. By taking a few minutes each day for a week preceding the exam and doing the following exercises, you will be totally prepared for the test and best of all, you can do these simple exercises right in and around your home.
EXERCISE ONE:
Open your refrigerator door and insert one breast in door. Shut the door as hard as possible and lean on the door for good measure.Hold that position for five seconds. Repeat again in case the first time wasn't effective enough.
EXERCISE TWO:
Visit your garage at 3AM when the temperature of the cement floor is just perfect. Take off all your clothes and lie comfortably on the floor with one breast wedged under the rear tire of the car. Ask a friend to slowly back the car up unt il your breast is sufficiently flattened and chilled. Turn over and repeat with the other breast.
EXERCISE THREE:
Freeze two metal bookends overnight. Strip to the waist. Invite a stranger into the room. Press the bookends against one of your breasts.Smash the bookends together as hard as you can. Set up an appointment with the stranger to meet next year and do it again.
YOU ARE TOTALLY PREPARED!AND, just a thought for all the women out there........MENtal illness, MENstrual cramps, MENtal breakdown,MENopause............Ever notice how all of women's problems start with men?.........AndWhen we have real trouble it's HISterectomy!!!!Send this to all women to have a laugh AND, don't forget to have a mammogram!!!!!!

A Tennessee Woman is in the Welfare Office Filling out Forms


Funny !!
A Tennessee woman is in the welfare office filling out forms.
The welfare officer asks her how many children she has?
"Ten boys."
"And their names?"
Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, and Leroy."
All named Leroy? Why would you name them all Leroy?"
"That way, when I wants them all to come in from the yard, I
just yells 'LEROY!', and when I wants them all to come to
dinner, I just yells 'LEROY!'"
"What if you just want a particular one of them to do something?"
"Then I calls him by his last name."
