Mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove over, I've come back.
With special dispensation (and a 90-minute grace period) from Cholula, who declared that "if a wallaby visits MSP in January, the cows have come home!", I hereby make my 10,000th post.

The check will be cut every 1K posts and, normally, would have been credited directly to you.
However, I am garnishing the wages of some Lounge Evangelists due to their being severely overdue in their 401K loan repayments.
So if you are both a Lounge Lizard/Lizardette™ and a FT Evangelist and you are not receiving your FlyerTalk Payment Per Post™ income, you now know the reason why.

You're not yet a FT Evangelist.
Once you are, we can pay you in penuts, lmonds, wlnuts or Brzil nuts.
Your choice.

I can't remember if I posted this, or not?? My mind is gone
But it is funny..........And true
A wife was making a breakfast of fried eggs for her husband.Suddenly , her husband burst into the kitchen.
'Careful,' he said, 'CAREFUL! Put in some more butter!
Oh my gosh! You're cooking too many at once.
TOO MANY! Turn them! TURN THEM NOW!
We need more butter.
Oh my gosh! WHERE are we going to get MORE BUTTER?
They're going to STICK! Careful.
CAREFUL! I said be CAREFUL! You NEVER listen to me when you're cooking! Never! Turn them! Hurry up!
Are you CRAZY? Have you LOST your mind? Don't forget to salt them. You know you always forget to salt them. Use the! salt. USE THE SALT! THE SALT!'
The wife stared at him. 'What in the world is wrong with you? You think I don't know how to fry a couple of eggs?'
The husband calmly replied, 'I just wanted to show you what it feels like when I'm driving.'

Oh Hell! I'll post it anyway
SPECIAL POEM FOR OLDER FOLKS (AKA CTM)
A row of bottles on my shelf
Caused me to analyze myself.
One yellow pill I have to pop
Goes to my heart so it won't stop.
A little white one that I take
Goes to my hands so they won't shake.
The blue ones that I use a lot
Tell me I'm happy when I'm not.
The purple pill goes to my brain
And tells me that I have no pain.
The capsules tell me not to wheeze
Or cough or choke or even sneeze.
The red ones, smallest of them all
Go to my blood so I won't fall.
The orange ones, very big and bright
Prevent my leg cramps in the night.
Such an array of brilliant pills
Helping to cure all kinds of ills.
But what I'd really like to know...........
Is what tells each one where to go!
There's always a lot to be thankful for if
you take time to look for it. For example
CTM is sitting here thinking how nice it is
that his wrinkles don't hurt...
