Diary of a Snow Shoveler (this is a little long but cute)

December 8: 6:00 PM. It started to snow. The first snow of the season
and the wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window
watching the huge soft flakes drift down from heaven. It looked like a
Grandma Moses Print. So romantic we felt like newlyweds again. I love
snow!


December 9: We woke to a beautiful blanket of crystal white snow covering
every inch of the landscape. What a fantastic sight! Can there be a more
lovely place in the Whole World? Moving here was the best idea I've ever
had. Shoveled for the first time in years, felt like a boy again. I did
both our driveway and the sidewalks. This afternoon the snowplow came along
and covered up the sidewalks and closed in the driveway, so I got to shovel
again. What a perfect life.


December 12: The sun has melted all our lovely snow. Such a
disappointment. My neighbor tells me not to worry, we'll definitely have a
white Christmas. No snow on Christmas would be awful! Bob says we'll have
so much snow by the end of winter, that I'll never want to see snow again.
I don't think that's possible. Bob is such a nice man, I'm glad he's our
neighbor.


December 14: Snow, lovely snow! 8" last night. The temperature dropped to
-20. The cold makes everything sparkle so. The wind took my breath away,
but I warmed up by shoveling the driveway and sidewalks. This is the life!
The snowplow came back this afternoon and buried everything again. I didn't
realize I would have to do quite this much shoveling, but I'll certainly get
back in shape this way. I wish I wouldn't huff and puff so.


December 15: 20 inches forecast. Sold my van and bought a 4x4 Blazer.
Bought snow tires for the wife's car and two extra shovels. Stocked the
freezer. The wife wants a wood stove in case the electricity goes out. I
think that's silly. We aren't in Alaska, after all.


December 16: Ice storm this morning. Fell on my butt on the ice in the
driveway putting down salt. Hurt like ****. The wife laughed for an hour,
which I think was very cruel.


December 17: Still way below freezing. Roads are too icy to go anywhere.
Electricity was off for five hours. I had to pile the blankets on to stay
warm. Nothing to do but stare at the wife and try not to irritate her.
Guess I should've bought a wood stove, but won't admit it to her. God I
hate it when she's right. I can't believe I'm freezing to death in my own
living room.


December 20: Electricity's back on, but had another 14" of the darn stuff
last night. More shoveling. Took all day. Stupid snowplow came by twice.
Tried to find a neighbor kid to shovel, but they said they're too busy
playing hockey. I think they're lying. Called the only hardware store
around to see about buying a snow blower, and they're out. Might have
another shipment in March. I think they're lying. Bob says I have to
shovel or the city will have it done and bill me. I think he's lying.


December 22: Bob was right about a white Christmas, because 13 more inches
of the white crap fell today, and it's so cold it probably won't melt 'til
August. Took me 45 minutes to get all dressed up to go out to shovel, and
then I had to take a leak. By the time I got undressed, went to the bathroom and dressed again,
I was too tired to shovel! Tried to hire Bob, who has a plow on his truck,
for the rest of the winter; but he says he's too busy. I think the butthole
is lying.


December 23: Only 2" of snow today, and it warmed up to "0". The wife
wanted me to decorate the front of the house this morning. What, is she
nuts!!! Why didn't she tell me to do that a month ago? She says she did,
but I think she's lying.


December 24: 6". Snow packed so hard by snowplow, I broke the shovel.
Thought I was having a heart attack. If I ever catch the son-of-a-gun who
drives that snowplow, I'll drag him through the snow by his privates and beat
him to death with my broken shovel. I know he hides around the corner and
waits for me to finish shoveling and then he comes down the street at a 100
miles an hour and throws snow all over everywhere I've just been! Tonight
the wife wanted me to sing Christmas carols with her and open our presents,
but I was too busy watching for the snowplow.


December 25: Merry F!=3D@x@!x!x1 Christmas. 20 more inches of the
!=3D@x@!x!x1 slop tonight. Snowed in. The idea of shoveling makes my blood
boil. God, I hate the snow! Then the snowplow driver came by asking for a
donation and I hit him over the head with my shovel. The wife says I have a
bad attitude. I think she's a fricking idiot. If I have to watch "It's a
Wonderful Life" one more time, I'm going to stuff her into the microwave.


December 26: Still snowed in. Why the **** did I ever move here? It was
all HER idea. She's really getting on my nerves.


December 27: Temperature dropped to -30, and the pipes froze. Plumber came
after 14 hours of waiting for him; he only charged me $1,400 to replace all
my pipes.


December 28: Warmed up to above -50. Still snowed in. The B**** is
driving me crazy!!!!!


December 29: 10 more inches. Bob says I have to shovel the roof or it
could cave in. That's the silliest thing I ever heard. How dumb does he
think I am?



December 30: Roof caved in. I beat up the snow plow driver. He is now
suing me for a million dollars; not for only the beating I gave him, but
also for trying to shove the broken snow shovel up his butt. The wife went
home to her mother. 9" predicted.


December 31: I set fire to what's left of the house. No more shoveling.


January 8: Feel so good. I just love those little white pills they keep
giving me. Why am I tied to the bed?

The cards Hallmark doesn't print ...

1. So your daughter's a hooker, and it spoiled your day.

Look at the bright side, it's really good pay.



2. My tire was thumping. I thought it was flat.

When I looked at the tire... I noticed your cat. Sorry!



3. Heard your wife left you, How upset you must be.

But don't fret about it... She moved in with me.



4. Looking back over the years that we've been together,

I can't help but wonder? What the **** was I thinking?



5. Congratulations on your wedding day!

Too bad no one likes your husband.



6. How could two people as beautiful as you...

Have such an ugly baby?



7. I've always wanted to have someone to hold, someone to love.

After having met you ... I've changed my mind.

I never believed in **** till I met you.

That you're not here to ruin it for me.

11. Someday I hope to get married .but not to you.



12. Happy birthday! You look great for your age... Almost Lifelike!



13. When we were together, you always said you'd die for me.

Two cannibals are eating a clown.

One turns to the other and says,

"Does this taste funny to you?"

Thought for the Day

There is more money being spent on breast implants and Viagra than Alzheimer's research. By 2020, there should be a large elderly population with perky breasts, never-ending erections and no recollection of what to do with either of them !!!

A big city California lawyer went duck hunting in rural Texas. He shot and dropped a bird,

but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a fence. As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up on his tractor and asked him what he was doing. The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field, and now I'm going to retrieve it."

The old farmer replied. "This is my property, and you are not coming over here." The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial attorneys in the U.S. and, if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and take everything you own."

The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we do things in Texas. We settle small disagreements like this with the Texas Three Kick Rule."

The lawyer asked, "What is the Texas Three Kick Rule?"

The Farmer replied. "Well, first I kick you three times and then you kick me three times, and so on, back and forth, until someone gives up."

The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local custom. The old farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the city feller. His first kick planted the toe of his heavy work boot into the lawyer's groin and dropped him to his knees. His second kick nearly ripped the man's nose off his face. The barrister was flat on his belly when the farmer's third kick to a kidney nearly caused him to give up.

The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and managed to get to his feet and said, "Okay, you old coot now it's my turn."

The old farmer smiled and said, "Naw, I give up. You can have the duck"
