A funny thing happened to me on the way here....

A camper was driving down a country road enjoying his brand new rig when a rabbit jumped out in front of him. He swerved, but he heard the thump and realized he had hit the poor rabbit.

He stopped and walked back and was looking at the poor thing when a woman in her car stopped to see what was going on, go out, and talked to the camper.

When he expressed his sorrow for the unfortunate incident, the woman said to wait. She then proceeded to rummage in her trunk and got out a spray can. Whereupon she sprayed the rabbit, which jumped up, walked toward the distant bushes, and stopped every few feet to look back and wave at the two people.

The camper asked if he could take a look at the spray can, so she gave it to him.

The label read, "Miracle Hair Restorer", gives life back to dead hair, and provides permanent wave.

    Exactly. Up until about six years old maybe seven, if the child is not too heavy, they can run them down. A beagle can't do it. An older child can't do it generally. they are too heavy and their feet slide out from under them on turns. If the ground is damp it's a little harder.
    You have to watch their feet. They can reach up and tear ou and your arm up badly. When I caught one, first order of business was to wring it's neck. Or cut it with the pocketknife. For several summers, when I was young I caught a lot of rabbits for the table.

  • Of course you know what you have if you get 20 rabbits in a row, with their arms linked like the Rockettes hopping backwards?






    A receding hare line.:B
    Sorry, couldn't resist.

    Are you serious..........I never do that!
    That's unheard of.

    But once many moons ago I told someone at work that I flew jet planes.
    Then I downloaded an entire website about planes and made my own link for the guy to view. It was a long time before he caught on! Back then we had software that would go underground and scoop up any web page you wanted with 'keyword (name) replacement'. Then it would create a webpage to link to.

    Those were the days.......of virtual processing!

    But, yet, I digress.

    Thought I would type something while I groaned over that joke! lol
  • Well, there's several seconds of my life that I'll never get back. Of course, that doesn't mean I won't steal it and make several friends groan. I know ALBQ will. :)
