SNOW BLONDES !


One winter morning a husband and wife  in northern Ohio were listening to the radio during breakfast.
They heard the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10  inches of snow today.
You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get  through."
So the good wife went out and moved her car.

A week later while they are eating  breakfast again,
the radio announcer said, "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of  snow today.
You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get through."
The good wife  went out and moved her car again.


The next week they are again having  breakfast,
when the radio announcer says,
"We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of  snow today. You must park..." Then the electric power went out.
The good wife was  very upset, and with a worried look on her face she said, "Honey, I don't know what to do.
Which side of the street do I need to  park on so the snowplows can get through?"

With the love and understanding in his  voice that all men who are married to Blondes exhibit, the husband replied,
"Why don't you just leave it in the  garage this time?"


 


 

The Christmas Auction is our only major fund-raiser of the year.  Let's make the most of it!
