Genealogy Fun Time
This page updated: 9/8/2005
Sorry,
I needed a break from the normal genealogy and had to go to some
fun stuff for a while.
I'm sure you can all understand.
Let me know if you have anything you can add to these pages.

From "Dear Abby" newspaper column-
Dear Abby: I have always wanted to have my family history traced, but I can't afford to spend a lot of money to do it. Any suggestions? -Sam in California
Dear Sam: Yes. Run for public office.
from "Dear Abby",
May those who love us, love us,
And those who don't love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if he doesn't turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles.
So we will know them by their limping.
From The Greensborough Patriot (a weekly published newspaper)
17 March 1830
Whereas my wife THANKFUL (or more properly speaking THANKLESS) manifests no disposition to act the part of an obedient companion, but continues to run me in debt beyond my ability to pay. This is therefore to inform all whom it may concern that I have resolved to be hen-pecked no longer and that I am determined to pay no more debts of her contracting. Now reap the benefits of your doing! Guilford, March 7, 1930 signed: ROBERT ARMFIELD
Where did Noah keep his bees?
In the ark hives.
(by Eric Willis, Boys LIfe, Jan 1998)
Every evening as I'm laying here in bed
This little prayer keeps running through my mortal head
God bless my mom and dad and bless my little child
and take care of my spouse when things start gettin wild....
and God there's one more thing I wish that you could do
hope ya don't mind me askin' but 'PLEASE' bless my Computer too??
Now I know that it's not normal to bless a mother board
but listen just a second while I explain to you, "MY LORD"
you see, that little metal box holds more than odds and ends.
inside those small components rest a hundred of my 'BEST FRIENDS'
Some it's true I've never seen and most I've never met
we've never shaken hands or shared a meal as yet...
I know for sure they like me by the kindnesses that they give
and this little scrap of metal is how I travel to where they live.
by faith is how I know them much the same as I know you.
I share in what life brings them from that our friendship grew.
'PLEASE' take an extra minute from your duties up above...
to bless this hunk of metal that's filled with so much love.
