California became a state
The people had no electricity.
The state had no money.
Almost everyone spoke Spanish.
There were gunfights in the streets.
So basically nothing has changed except then the women had real boobs and the men didn’t hold hands.
That, my friends, is the history lesson for today!

THE TINY CABIN
A social worker from a big city in Massachusetts recently transferred to the mountains of West Virginia and was on the first tour of her new territory when she came upon the tiniest cabin she had ever seen in her life. Intrigued, she went up and knocked on the door.
“Anybody home?” she asked.
“Yep,” came a kid’s voice through the door.
“Is your father there?” asked the social worker.
“Pa? Nope, he left afore Ma came in,” said the kid.
“Well, is your mother there?” persisted the social worker.
“Ma? Nope, she left just afore I got here,” said the kid.
“But,” protested the social worker, (thinking that surely she will need to intervene in this situation) “are you never together as a family?”
“Sure, but not here,” said the kid through the door. “This is the outhouse!”
Government workers are so very smart. Aren’t you overjoyed that they’ll soon be handling all our financial, educational and medical dilemmas?

A good one for all my fellow veteran friends and others who might understand it. Two old farts, Dwaine and Lonnie were sitting in their rockers at the old soldiers home…
Dwayne asked Lonnie. “Do you remember that stuff they used to put in our coffee during the war, to make us forget about women?”
Lonnie replied, “I think you mean salt peter.”
Dwayne. “Yep, that’s the stuff. I think it’s beginning to work!”

During dinner one night, our friend Jim told us of his days playing football in college as a defensive lineman.
“Did you play sports in college?” his wife asked me.
“Yes,” I answered. “I was on West Point’s shooting team.”
“That’s great,” she said, appropriately impressed. “Offense or defense?”
