WELCOME to Monday, December 12, 2011. Thoughts from Steven Wright……..
Today I dialed a wrong number… The other person said, “Hello?” And I said, “Hello, could I speak to Joey?”… They said, “Uh… I don’t think so… he’s only 2 months old.” I said, “I’ll wait.”
I got up one morning and couldn’t find my socks, so I called Information. She said, “Hello, Information.” I said, “I can’t find my socks.” She said, “They’re behind the couch.” And they were!
Last week I bought a new phone. I took it out of the box, hooked it up to the wall… Pressed redial. The phone had a nervous breakdown.
I got an answering machine for my phone. Now when I’m not home and somebody calls me up, they hear a recording of a busy signal. I like to leave messages before the beep.
I don’t like the sound of my phone ringing so I put my phone inside my fish tank. I can’t hear it, but every time I get a call I see the fish go like this [[[]]][[]][[[[. I go down to the pet store — “Gimme another ten guppies, I got a lotta calls yesterday.”
I bought a self-learning record to learn Spanish. I turned it on and went to sleep; the record got stuck. The next day I could only stutter in Spanish.
I was going to tape some records onto a cassette, but I got the wires backwards. I erased all of the records. When I returned them to my friend, he said, “Hey, these records are all blank.”
I got tired of calling the movies to listen to what is playing so I bought the album.
I was reading the dictionary. I thought it was a poem about everything.
That’s my story and I’m sticking too it! Have a great Monday people and whatever you do, don’t forget to LAUGH IT UP! Peace I am outta here, Eucman!

Friday’s Movie Trivia of the day! ‘How much movie trivia can you answer?What movie is this quote from??? “You went in there to get a date and came out with a dog? Oh, that’s bad even for you.”Answer: Garfield: The Movie. Based on the popular comic strip of the same name, this 2004 film received mostly bad reviews, even from fans of the strip. Despite this, a sequel was released in 2006 anyway. The movie stars Bill Murray as Garfield, Breckin Meyer as his owner, Jon, and Jennifer Love Hewitt as Garfield’s veterinarian and the object of Jon’s affection, Dr. Liz Wilson. This quote is said by Garfield in reference to Jon’s attempt to ask Liz out on a date, though he somehow managed to get saddled with a new pet dog, Odie, in the process because he was so smitten with Liz.
