Not sure if this should be in this thread as it's eally a sad story, but shows the warmth of mankind. On Sunday a young woman, Claire Squires, was running the London Marathon in aid of the Samaritans, hoping to raise £500, sadly about 1.5 miles from the finish she collapsed, and despite the immediate attention of the St John's Ambulance she died. Since then, and with the disclosure of her name and the link to the site she was using to ask for donations her currrent donation total is around £400,000. I'm not asking people to donate, but this is a link and the total seems to be just rocketing, infact as I post this the total is $423,000.

What made me smile today was a small token of affection that my daughter gave me l am when he came to work ... source a small kiss on the hand and told me I was a real gentleman.

After a long hot morning of doing laundry at the corner laundrymat, old Stella is pulling her cart full of laundry behind her down the blazing hot sidewalk.

Boy, it sure is hot out here Stella says to herself as she trudges along.

As she passes the open door of a tavern Stella notes the nice cool air and music from within drifting out to the side walk.

Stella says to herself "an ice cold beer would go down real nice right now".

Stella turns and pulls her laundry cart into the dark, cool tavern and plops down on a bar stool.

The barkeep approaches and asks "What can I get you Ma'am?"

As Stella wipes the sweat from her brow she responds "Well gee mister, an ice cold beer sounds real good right about now".

With that the barkeep asks "Anheuserbush"?

Stella ponders the question a moment and through blushing cheeks responds "Were just fine mister, Anheuserpecker"?

Why do people post photos of stupid things when advertising houses to rent.

I've seen more photos of crappy furniture, toilets, hammocks, skirting boards and fridges than I care about.

These ones are always the best though, wtf has this got to do with a house? At least it makes filtering out some of the spam a little easier.

Doesn't that make you want to send them a rude email?
