Any way...got a good bus story....well good for you anyway for me not so much.......trying to give my ride a break so I started taking the bus to and from school.....with the times last semester and the bridge being out she would take me to and pick me up.....anyway...today I did the to and from...to was not bad...took an hour but...what ever.....(I took the 42U bus now that the "kids" are back at school this bus now runs......) So no mile walk for me.....I know sad right?...lol Got out of class at 7:00pm.......next bus...8:15pm ..... :( and.................. NO place to sit......inside or out......so I went across the drive way to sit by the flower bed they have a nice ledge to perch on ......starts to rain....~~SIGH~~7:45pm...bus shows up........(!) I asked...weren't you supposed to be here at 8:15? No that's the guy behind me........well cool I thought......This bus is not listed on the schedule...that's a different bus he says....(?) so..off we go to MATC.....(Milwaukee Area Technical College) Mequon campus......5 billion miles west..........(seemed like it anyway).......then BACK to Concordia.......8:15pm (!) I know right........I was on that bus so long......The bus driver gave me a new transfer on the way OUT ......dropped me off on state street at 9:00pm........got home at 9:30pm........2 -1/2 hours to get home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!REALLY?

FIRST DAY BACK TO SCHOOL....

Well it was certainly great to be back at school. We didn't lose any more of us...we started with ten..now we are six. (two got better jobs..ones they wanted.......one got into a...ummmm disagreement (?) with the teacher.....one fell behind when her brother got sick..she is trying again)


Was also great to see all the students back from summer...campus is all active again...although it was MUCH quieter with out them, and our "lecture hall" we used is now full of nursing students we have to have class in the lab...much noisier its right by the dorm entrance...kids in and out....But any way..I got to play with an otoscope(?) today....I got to see the teachers eardrum (tympanic membrane.......hehehehehe) told her her ears needed cleaning.....and I could see a vacancy sign...lmaooo.....she laughed.
Well anyway thats about it for now

TOO FUNNY.....



So, there's this yellow toad wandering around in the forest kinda ticked off because he doesn't want to be yellow. Life would be easier if he were green like the other toads.. He'd sure be less visible to predators for one thing. Anyway... this yellow toad bumps into a fairy godmother.


He begs her: "Fairy godmother, please make me green like the other toads. I am tired of being so visible to predators and suchlike."

The fairy godmother whips out her magic wand and says, "Toadra-capokus! You're green!"



The toad looks down and sees that he is green except for his package, which is still yellow. He says to the fairy godmother: "Wait a minute! My pecker's still yellow!"

To this the fairy godmother replies: "I don't do johnsons. You will have to go see The Wizard of Oz for that." The toad thanks her and hops off on his way.

There is a purple bear wandering about the very same woods. As luck would have it, he also encounters the very same fairy godmother. He implores her: "Fairy godmother, please make me brown like all the other bears. None of the lady bears want to be seen with me on account that the hunters can spot me from a mile off."

She, being a nice fairy godmother, takes out her magic wand and says:"Bearus-cadabra! You're brown!"



The bear looks down and sees that he is, in fact, brown with the exception of the ole twig and berries. They remain purple. He says: "My wang is still purple!" She says: "I don't do units, you will have to go see The Wizard of Oz for that."

To this the bear replies: "Well that's just dandy, but how the hell do I find The Wizard of Oz?"



The fairy godmother answers: "That's easy... just follow the yellowdick Toad!"
