First, you should know that the peanuts were the first ones to recognize valentine’s day as being a holiday for peanuts. After all, that’s the day that people focus on their loved ones and stop wanting to eat peanuts!!! A holiday!! They eat chocolate, give flowers and gifts. Humans love to give things to each other. But they do not give peanuts!

I have watched from the front of the gallery for years. These individuals will get really mushy. They love to surprise each other. And I have noticed that this day is usually for two of them at a time. Very strange. We peanuts stick together. Our holidays are for everyone. Sometimes that’s when they want me to talk, talk, talk though. There are times when I just want to sit back and enjoy the holiday too.

So, have a happy peanutish Valentine’s Day to all!!!

There were a few leftover Steven Wright jokes from the other posts. Here
are a couple more:

I live on a one-way street that’s also a dead end. I’m not sure how I
got there.

I put instant coffee in a microwave oven and almost went back in time.

If you can’t hear me, it’s because I’m in parentheses.

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights, so it looks like
I’m the only one moving.

My neighbor has a circular driveway… he can’t get out.

My roommate got a pet elephant. Then it got lost. It’s in the apartment
somewhere.

Last week the candle factory burned down. Everyone just stood around and
sang Happy Birthday.

It’s a small world but I wouldn’t want to paint it.

I saw a subliminal advertising executive, but only for a second.

I saw a bank that said "24 Hour Banking," but I don’t have that much
time.

I was trying to daydream, but my mind kept wandering.

Is it weird in here, or is it just me?

I just love finding more of these tech support calls that are incredibly
true and often very funny. Here are some more of those gems for your

And that’s the Twilight Zone.

This actually happened about a year ago but I could not help putting it up here anyway. It’s
so ridiculous that you simply have to read about it!!!

In the "How Dumb Can You Get?" column, we find a guy who wants to be a
thief or burglar but he just doesn’t have the right stuff for the job.
He apparently broke into an apartment by using his Ill. State
Corrections ID card. It wasn’t the wisest thing on earth to leave the
card at the scene of the burglary though. Takes the fun right out of the
thing for the police.

He was arrested for the burglary, drug stuff, etc. Seems he just got out
of prison in Illinois in January. Apparently, when someone does not have
regular state ID or driver’s license, they give the Corrections ID.
Guess he liked where he used to live. Got to get back to see the boys,
right?

Leave The ID. Maybe It Confuses Them.

BETTENDORF, Iowa (AP) - A burglary suspect was arrested after he left
behind a Corrections Department identification card he used to jimmy a
lock, authorities said.

Officers said they arrested Robert Alan Fry of Rock Island, Ill.,
after investigating the theft Tuesday of a plastic jug containing about
$400 in change from an apartment in Bettendorf. They said they found
Fry’s Illinois Department of Corrections ID card at the apartment and
arrested him Wednesday at a Bettendorf motel.

These are quotes from names you might just recognise yet…they do say
the darndest things. I call this the DUH! department…..well, you can
