One day in the Garden of Eden, Eve calls out to God... “Lord, I have a problem!” “What’ is the problem, Eve?” “Lord, I know you have created me and have provided this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals, and that hilarious comedic snake, but I’m just not happy.” “Why is that, Eve?” came the reply from above. “Lord, I am lonely. And I’m sick to death of apples.” “Well Eve, in that case, I have a solution. I shall create ‘Man’ for you.” “What is a ‘man’ Lord?”

“Well, ‘Man’ will be a flawed creature, with many bad traits. He’ll lie, cheat, and be vainglorious; all in all, he’ll give you a hard time. But, he will be stronger, bigger, faster, and will like to hunt and kill things. He will look very

Susan Boyle and Wild Horses - Susan Boyle wowed the US as she took to the America's Got Talent stage and sang an amazing rendition of the Rolling Stones' song Wild Horses.

Sounding pitch perfect and much more polished than she ever has before, a sophisticated Susan Boyle belted out the number and received an amazing applause, leaving no doubt in anyone's mind that she's a true talent to be reckoned with.

Have a listen and let her vocals blow your minds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HFrm Vq0Idw&feature=player_embedded#t=425

Coleen Nolan has a Sex Tape!!!Coleen Nolan brought a whole new meaning to being an embarrassing mum yesterday when she announced live on air that she’d made a sex tape. As if that wasn’t cringe-worthy enough, her two poor sons were watching in the studio audience. Aargh!

Coleen made the admission live on Loose Women, saying happily that her and her partner looked like “two sea lions that needed clubbing” and that she resembled an “albino whale”.

Her two sons Jake, 16 and 21-year-old Shane put their head in their hands as visibly grimaced as their mother ploughed on. Poor boys. Very amusing for all of us, but absolutely mortifying for them.

Olly Mur, who you ask! - This year’s X Factor has been a bit lacking so far, but that changed when 25-year-old Olly Mur strutted confidently onto the stage. The cheeky chappie wowed the judges and the crowd with his rendition of Steve Wonder's Superstition, throwing a few nifty dance moves to boot. There was a definite sparkle in the eyes of both Cheryl and Dannii, not to mention most of the female audience. OK, so he may be a bit cocky, but with his cute looks and smooth performance, we will let it go. In case you didn’t see him, have a watch now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Seel4D VuPSM&feature=player_embedded

Jennifer Aniston is a Singer?! - Jennifer Aniston got well and truly stitched up when she appeared on Ellen DeGeneres’ chat show Jennifer is currently working on a new film where she plays the part of a singer, and Ellen decided that it was about time we heard Jen’s singing talents for ourselves.

Therefore, by operation of thermodynamiclaw, 6,216 calories (1 cal./gm/deg. x 37 deg. x 168 gms) are extracted from body fat as the dessert’s temperature is normalized. Allowing for the 1,200 latent calories in the dessert, the net calorie loss is approximately 5,000 calories. Obviously, the more cold dessert you eat, the better off you are and the faster you will lose weight, if that is your goal. This process works equally well when drinking very cold beer in frosted glasses. Each ounce of beer contains 16 latent calories, but extracts 1,036 calories (6,216 cal. per 6 oz. portion) in the...

Finally after all these years a diet designed with men in mind. The Beer and Ice cream diet!. But stay away from the pizza!. As we all know, it takes 1 calorie to heat 1 gram of water 1 degree centigrade. Translated into meaningful terms, this means that if you eat a very cold dessert (generally consisting of water in large part), the natural processes which raise the consumed dessert to body temperature during the digestive cycle literally sucks the calories out of the only available source, your body fat. For example, a dessert served and eaten at near 0 degrees C (32.2 deg. F) will in a short time be raised to the normal body temperature of 37 degrees C (98.6 deg. F).

desserts, e.g., ice cream, are even more beneficial, since it takes 83 cal./gm to melt them (i.e., raise them to 0 deg. C) and an additional 37 cal./gm to further raise them to body temperature. The results here are really remarkable, and it beats running hands down. Unfortunately, for those who eat pizza as an excuse to drink beer, pizza (loaded with latent calories and served above body temperature) induces an opposite effect. But, thankfully, as the astute reader should have already reasoned, the obvious solution is to drink a lot of beer with pizza and follow up immediately with large bowls of ice cream We could all be thin if we were to adhere religiously to a pizza, beer, Happy eating! and ice cream diet.

A young man was having some money problems, and needed €200 to get his car fixed and roadworthy again. But had run out of people to borrow from.

So, he calls his parents via the operator, and reverses the charge and says to his father. “I need to borrow two hundred euros,” he says. At the other end, his father says, “Sorry, I can’t hear you, son, its a dreadful bad line speak up.”

The boy shouts, “Two hundred. I need two hundred euros!” “Sorry, son I still can’t hear you clearly,” says his father.

At this point the operator cuts in, “Sorry to interrupt, But I can hear him perfectly clearly.” The father says, “Good. YOU send him the money!”

An old woman came into her doctor’s office and confessed to an embarrassing problem. “I fart all the time, Doctor Johnson, but they’re soundless, and they have no odor. In fact, since I’ve been here, I’ve farted no less than twenty times. What can I do?,” “Here’s a prescription, Mrs.Harris. Take these pills three times a day for seven days and come back and see me in a week.”

Next week an upset Mrs.Harris marched into Dr. Johnson’s office.

“Doctor, I don’t know what was in those pills, but the problem is worse! I’m farting just as much, but now they smell terrible! What do you have to say for yourself?” “Calm down, Mrs.Harris,” said the doctor soothingly. “Now that we’ve fixed your sinuses, we’ll work on

When they arrived at the doctor's, they explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. After checking the couple out, the doctor tells them that they were physically okay but might want to start writing things down and make notes to help them remember things. The couple thanked the doctor and left. Later that night while watching TV, the old man got up from his chair and his wife asks, "Where are you going?" He replies, "To the kitchen."

He said 1,200 tonnes of rubbish would have been tipped on top of the site since the money went missing. “The chance of finding one plastic bag would be extremely remote,” he said. “It’s not a safe place to go unsupervised.” According to the unnamed family, the cash was stored in £50 notes in a shopping bag.

Scavengers hoping to find a plastic bag filled with £12,000 in cash are being asked not to hunt for it at a landfill site. The money is now thought to be buried under tonnes of rubbish. A “very confused” elderly woman reportedly lost the money, her life savings, after mistakenly dumping the shopping bag in a wheelie bin. The bin was then collected and taken to a landfill site near Horsham, West Sussex. The woman,s daughter later asked staff to hunt for the cash but a team of 14 binmen could find no trace of it. They stopped trucks dumping rubbish for 45 minutes during the search before admitting defeat.

After news of the mistake emerged, locals hoping for a windfall were warned to stay away from the landfill site. “It is a secure site and we would urge people not to even consider going there,” Worthing Borough

The car was slowing down, like it was running out of petrol, but the gauge said it was full. May and Leslie went to check out the engine. When they opened the bonnet, there was a hand. A lone hand.

They were so frightened they couldn’t scream. Leslie reached out to touch it then It Moved! This time they both screamed and Irene and Kate ran out the car screaming. They said there was a man with his flesh torn and a missing hand in the back seat. The girls ran and the car was chasing them slowly. May called the her parents, Irene called 999,

The Russian President Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev called Gordon Brown with an emergency: “Our largest condom factory has exploded!” the Russian President cried. “My people’s favorite form of birth control!

This is a true disaster!”

“Dmitry, the British people would be happy to do anything within their power to help you” replied the Prime Minister. “I do need your help,” said Dmitry. “Could you possibly send 1,000,000 condoms as soon as possible to tide us over?” “Certainly my dear chap! I’ll get right on it!” said Brown.

“Oh, and one more small favour,

The Four Sons

AG

E

The third man’s son, Greg, has worked his way up through a stock brokerage, and in the last few weeks has given a good friend a large stock portfolio as a gift. As the fourth man arrives at the tee, another tells him that they have been discussing their progeny and asks what line his son is in. “To tell the truth, I’m not very pleased with how my son turned out,” he replies. “For 15 years, Chico’s been a hairdresser, and I’ve just recently discovered he’s gay.

However, on the bright side, he must be good at what he does because his last three boyfriends have given him a brand new house, two cars, and a big pile of stock certificates.”

These 4 gents go out to play golf one sunny morning. One is detained in the clubhouse, and the other three are discussing their children while walking to the first tee. “My son Kent,” says one, “has made quite a name for himself in the home-building industry. He began as a carpenter, but now owns his own design and construction firm.

He’s so successful in fact, in the last year he was able to give a good friend a brand new home as a gift.” The second man, not to be out done, tells how his son began his career as a car salesman, but now owns a multi-line dealership. “Norm’s so successful, in fact, in the last six months he gave his friend two brand new cars as a gift.”

The Den Rejects

Rob Law was left pulling his hair out after an humiliating appearance. The founder of Trunki, luggage especially designed for children, has had the last laugh. The invention which allows children to bring toys, books and spare clothing with them when they travel has sold more than 120,000 globally.

Theo Paphitis ridiculed the children's luggage product after he managed to pull off one of the straps forcing 30 year-old Law to redesign the practical toy.

Although he declined to stipulate how much he has made from Trunki, the creation is now one of the top-selling luggage items at John Lewis, Mothercare and Debenhams.

Shaun Pulfrey had the last laugh after his innovative hairbrush was snapped up by Boots. The high street giant will stock the Tangle Teezer at 600 stores, a year after the five business experts on the how rejected Shaun’s idea. The south London hairdresser's device is designed to smooth knotted hair easily and could make the hairdresser a handsome profit. As well as the lucrative contract with Boots, sales have taken off on the internet and helped push 47-year-old Mr Pulfrey's turnover to £800,000, landing him a £200,000 profit.

With Tangle Teezers now being sold all over the world, he expects to turn over £1.5m from the product next year.

Rachel Lowe got a roasting when she entered the Den. Rachel used her experience as a taxi driver to invent Destination London, a board game in which players assume the role of cabbies in the capital.

The aim of the game is to race around the city visiting tourist attractions, collecting fares and avoiding hazards such as traffic lights. The signs are that the Dragons have missed a trick. Destination London is now the number one selling game in Hamleys more popular even than Monopoly, whose owner, Hasbro, is bringing out a new version for the first time in its 70-year history.

David & Sarah Glashan are proving the Den was wrong by not backing them, as they reap the rewards of their invention.The couple were panned on the show, when none of the entrepreneurs would invest £250k for a 20 per cent share in their firm to make the Itsa. The Itsa is a beach bag which turns into a sun lounger cover, with pockets to keep valuables at the beach or poolside. In there first year of trading, they have sold 65,000. They believe they are set to sell more than 100,000 and make more than £2.5m, selling the Itsa in Cyprus, Italy, America, Canada, and Australia.

HALLOWEEN AT KIDZ KINGDOM.

SATURDAY 31ST OCTOBER 2009

AG

AZ IN

If you didn’t get to the kids favourite ball park on the coast this summer, then you really missed a treat with their fun packed summer themed events. But the summer’s history for 2009 and the kids are back at School. “Hurrah” I hear many of you parents shouting. So with this year’s schoolbooks and uniforms in your shopping trolleys we’ll soon be back to a bit of normality. But all is not dull on the horizon. Kidz Kingdom, or KK should I say, as has been dubbed by most, has plenty more for you to look forward to this season. KK, has been tipped for the only place to be seen this Halloween. If you were there last year then you’ll certainly know what I mean. So don’t miss a trick this October 31st as I’m sure they’ll be plenty of treats to go around for everyone. It’s Thriller themed and rumour has it that Stagecoach are putting on a special surprise performance for the evening. I can only say that with all the gusto that KK usually put into their events, you really won’t want to miss this one.

If any of you have little ones or pre-schoolers, then you must try their Baby and Toddler Mornings. (Every Tue & Thu 11am – 1pm). You can use the whole facility without the worry of the bigger and more boisterous children around, after which everyone gathers in the toddler area for some action songs to Music with Ally. The little ones love it and begin joining-in in no time at all.

It’s a great place to meet other mums too and the majority, I myself have witnessed, are still there eating and socialising past 2pm. But that’s not all, their well kept secret is finally out of the bag and during these hours, from October ’09 there’s going to be special visits from your children’s favourite Dinosaur ‘Barney’.

The European Commission have just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the EU rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty’s government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five year phase in plan that would be known as “EuroEnglish”: In the first year, “s” will replace the soft “c”. Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard “c” will be dropped in favour of the “k”. This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have 1 less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome “ph” will be replaced with the “f”. This will make words like “fotograf” 20% shorter.

The Assassin Test

E

AZ IN

Finally, it was the woman’s turn. She was given the same instructions, to kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one shot after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow. “This gun is loaded with blanks”, she said. “I had to beat him to death with the chair.”

M

The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room. All was quiet for about

five minutes. Then the man came out with tears in his eyes. “I tried, but I can’t kill my wife.” The agent said, “You don’t have what it takes. Take your wife and go home.”

AG

The MI6 had an opening for an assassin. After all the background checks, interviews, and testing were done, there were three finalists. two men and a woman. For the final test, the MI6 agents took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun. “We must know that you will follow our instructions, no matter what the circumstances. Inside this room, you will find your wife sitting in a chair. Kill Her!!!”

The man said, “You can’t be serious. I could never shoot my wife.” The agent said, “Then you’re not the right man for this job. Take your wife and go home.”

The Accident Repor t

AZ IN

Securing the rope at ground level, I went to the top of the tower and loaded the tools and material into the barrel.

Then I went back to the ground and untied the rope, holding it tightly to insure a slow decent of the 300 pounds of tools. You will note in block number 11 of the accident reporting form, that I weigh only 11stone.

Due to my surprise of being jerked off the ground so suddenly, I lost my presence of mind and forgot to let go of the rope. Needless to say,

I am an amateur radio operator and on the day of the accident, I was working alone on the top section of my new 80 foot tower. When I had completed my work, I discovered that I had, over the course of several trips up the tower, brought up about 300 pounds of tools and spare hardware. Rather than carry the now un-needed tools and material

down by hand, I decided to lower the items down in a small barrel by using a pulley, which fortunately was attached to the gin pole at the top of the tower.

AG

Dear Sir, I am writing in response to your request for additional information for block number 3 of the accident reporting form. I put “poor planning” as the cause of my accident. You said in your letter that I should explain more fully and I trust the following detail will be sufficient.

I am sorry to report, however, that as I lay there on the tools, in pain, unable to stand and watching the empty barrel 80 feet above me... I again lost my presence of mind. I let go of the rope.

At approximately the same time, however, the barrel of tools hit the ground and the bottom fell out of the barrel.

Devoid of the weight of the tools, the barrel now weighed approximately 20

In the vicinity of the 40 foot level, I met the barrel coming up. This accounts for the two fractured ankles and the lacerations of my legs and lower body. The encounter with the barrel slowed me enough to lessen my injuries when I fell onto the pile of tools and fortunately, only three vertebrae were cracked.

Slowed only slightly, I continued my rapid ascent, not stopping until the fingers of my right hand were two knuckles deep into the pulley. Fortunately, by this time, I had regained my presence of mind and was able to hold onto the rope in spite of my pain.

I proceeded at a rather rapid rate of speed up the side of the tower. In the vicinity of the 40 foot level, I met the barrel coming down. This explains my fractured skull and broken collarbone.

Strange but true...

Using pumpkins as lanterns at Halloween is based on an ancient Celtic custom brought to America by Irish immigrants.

The word "Halloween" appeared in the Dictionary in the 1700s.

The largest pumpkin grown was recorded on October 2, 2004 weighing 1,446 pounds.

More than 93 percent of children go trickor-treating each year.

K

M

The name "pumpkin" comes from the Greek word "pepon," meaning melon.

AZ IN

According to ancient superstitions, if you stare into a mirror at midnight on Halloween, you'll see your future spouse.

The carving of jack-o'-lanterns originated from the tradition of carving the faces of lost souls into hollowed out pumpkins and turnips. A candle was placed inside the carvings making the faces glow. The Halloween lanterns were placed on doorsteps to ward off evil spirits.

AG

Dunking for apples arose from a practice of divining the future. It was believed that if you could hold an apple between your teeth you would have a fulfilling romance with whomever you choose.

E

It is very rare for a full moon to occur at the same time as Halloween. It has only occurred in 1925, 1944, 1955, and 1974.

The next time it is said to occur is in 2020.

When it appears that you have killed the monster, ‘never’ check to see if it's really dead. Do not search the cellar, especially if the power has just gone out.

Beware of strangers bearing tools such as chainsaws, staple guns, hedge trimmers, electric carving knives, combines, lawnmowers, butane torches, soldering irons, band saws, or any device made from deceased companions.

If appliances start operating by themselves, move out.

If your children speak to you in Latin or any other language which they should not know or if they speak to you using a voice which is other than their own, shoot them immediately. It will save you a lot of grief in the long run.

If you’re running from the

monster, expect to trip or fall down at least twice, more if you are of the female persuasion. Also note that, despite the fact that you are running and the monster is merely shambling along, it’s still moving fast enough to catch up with you. When you have the benefit of numbers, ‘never’ pair off and go it alone. As a general rule, don’t solve puzzles that open portals to Hell.

Never read a book of demon summoning aloud, even as a joke. If your car runs out of petrol at night; do not go to the nearby deserted-looking house to phone for help.

If you find a town which looks deserted, it’s probably for a reason. Take the hint and stay away! Don’t fool with recombinant DNA technology unless you’re sure you know what you are doing.

Finally, when you find a corpse in the back garden, don’t take ‘anything’ from it.

Golf Tips And Tricks The Short Putt by Mark Sibley of Miraflores Golf Academy

Always be positive with the short putt and then you wont see yourself missing.

AZ IN

Police are called to an apartment and find a man standing, holding a 5-iron in his hands, looking at the lifeless body of a woman on the ground. The detective asks, "Sir, is that your wife?" "Yes." "Did you hit her with that golf club?"

"Yes. Yes, I did," the man answers. He stifles a sob, drops the club and puts his hands on his head. "How many times did you hit her?" "I dont know. Four, five. six, put me down for a four."

LI N

K

M

The moment you look at a putt and tell yourself it can’t be missed it becomes a pressure putt to a lot of players.

Burrows and slopes start to appear and before long that easy putt is creating a sweaty forehead and stiff grip, that’s just when you are telling yourself its easy, when your playing partner makes the statement that’s an easy one for the game we’ve got them now, and all a lot of players can then see is the ball not going in. Here are 2 practice points to develop a positive short putt routine that works, and you can trust.

Golfing About

AG

Well my answer to that one would be that distance that when you look at it, you cannot imagine you will miss it, but inside you are surprised when it goes in.

E

First of all what do you call a short putt?

The Line

C

O

ST

A

Unless the hole has been set into a slop on the green you will normally find burrow is not a problem, and aiming for the centre of the hole will give you more space to be wrong how many times have you aimed right edge and watched it lip out, short putt always aim at the centre it will give you room to be wrong try it on the practice green then take it to the golf course.

The Weight Always give the ball a hard enough strike to hit the back edge of the hole this will give enough pace for the ball to stay on its line and get rid of that most common of bad short putts the ball to short.

Recently a guy in Paris nearly got away with stealing several paintings from the Louvre. However, after planning the crime, getting in and out past security, he was captured only streets away when his Eco car ran out of gas. When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error, he replied; (brace yourself, this is really bad.) “I had no Monet to buy Degas to make the Van Gogh.”

(Told you!)

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work.

The first said, “I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered.” The second said, “I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order.” The third said, “I like to operate on electricians. You

open them up and everything inside is colour-coded.” The fourth one said, “I like to operate on Cabinet Ministers.

They’re heartless spineless, gutless, and their heads and their ass are interchangeable.”

A lawyer and his brother were hunting.

A mountain lion jumped out in front of them and started snarling. The brother said “What should we do?” The lawyer said “I’m gonna run for it.” The brother said “You can’t outrun a mountain lion!”

The lawyer said “I don’t have to outrun him... I only have to outrun You.”

Here’s one I heard on the radio from a woman who told her story about seeing a ghost, which is scary: A few years ago, the

woman and her family had just moved to a new house somewhere in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. One night, her baby son was crying so she got out of bed and went to see him. Suddenly, the baby stopped crying. The woman knew that he must have fallen asleep so she went back to bed. A few hours later, the baby cried again, so she got up and went over to check again. As she opened the door to her son’s room, she saw a boy, about 6 or 7 years old, calming the baby down. When he saw the woman, he disappeared. The woman was shocked and later told her neighbours what happened. The neighbours already knew about the ghost and told her that there was a boy who died from an illness, about 80 years ago, and was buried under the exact place where her baby son’s room is.

There was this couple in Scotland who had just moved into an old castle. When they moved in, they decided to empty out the cellar and found this large barrel of brandy.

They tried moving it and even got a few friends around to help, but they couldn't budge it. In the end, they decided to have a housewarming party and give glasses of brandy out to empty the barrel and make it easier to move. A few days after the party, they went into the cellar and tried to move the barrel again. It still wouldn’t move. The husband went to get his saw in order to cut it into smaller pieces, and in turn’s they cut off the top of the barrel. Inside was a dead body.

An old man goes to the doctor for his yearly physical, his wife tagging along. When the doctor enters the examination room, he tells the old man, “I need a urine sample, a stool sample and a sperm sample.”

The old man, being hard of hearing, looks at his wife and yells: “WHAT?” “What did he say? What’s he want? His wife yells back, “He needs your underwear.”

A vampire bat came flapping in from the night covered in fresh blood and parked himself on the roof of the cave to get some sleep. Pretty soon all the other bats smelled the blood and began hassling him about where he got it. He told them to go away and let him get some sleep but they persisted until finally he gave in. “OK, follow me” he said and flew out of the cave with hundreds of bats behind him. Down through the valley they went, across a river and into a forest full of trees. Finally he slowed down and all the other bats excitedly milled around him. “Now, do you see that tree over there?” he asked. “Yes, Yes, Yes!” the bats all screamed in a frenzy.

“Good” said the bat, “Because I sure as hell didn’t!”

A man buys a pet parrot and brings him home. But the parrot starts insulting him and gets really nasty, so the man picks up the parrot and tosses him into the freezer to teach him a lesson. He hears the bird squawking for a few minutes, but all of a sudden the parrot is quiet. The man opens the freezer door, the parrot walks out, looks up at him and says, “I apologise for offending you, and I humbly ask your forgiveness. The man says, “Well, thank you.

I forgive you.” The parrot pauses for a moment, then says, “If you don’t mind me asking, what did the chicken do?”
