Dateline: August 27th, East Coast United States
Posted by Tom Baker in Hurricane Irene 2011 on August 27, 2011
**THIS JUST IN**
As Hurricane Irene continues to batter the East Coast, federal disaster officials have warned that Internet outages could force people to interact with other people for the first time in years. Residents from Florida to Maine are bracing themselves for the horror of awkward silences & unwanted eye contact. FEMA has advised: “Be prepared. Write down possible topics to talk about in advance: books, movies, etc…” Remember, a conversation is basically a series of WordPress comments and replies or Facebook updates strung together!
You have been warned…

A Little Funny Joke
Cyanide And The Pharmacist
A lady went into the pharmacy, walked up to the pharmacist, looked straight into his eyes, and said, I would like to buy some cyanide.
The pharmacist asked, “Why?”
The lady replied, I need it to poison my husband.
The pharmacist said ‘Lord have mercy! that’s against the law! Absolutely not!”
The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist’s wife.
The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, “You didn’t tell me you had a prescription.”

Rose from A Rose Is A Rose has been on my case since my last post. She’s convinced people want a new post from me even if it’s nothing spectacular. To kill to birds with one stone, (appease Rose and get a new post out) I decided to look for some photographs that inspire me.
I hope you enjoy these as much as I like them.
