Post Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans residents are challenged often with the task of tracing home titles back potentially hundreds of years. With a community rich with history stretching back over two centuries, houses have been passed along through generations of family, often making it quite difficult to establish ownership. Here's a great letter an attorney wrote to the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) on behalf of a client that was absolutely priceless! A New Orleans lawyer sought an FHA loan for a client. He was told the loan would be granted, if he could prove satisfactory title to a parcel of property being offered as collateral. The title to the property dated back to 1803, whic

Little Johnny was eating breakfast one morning. He got to thinking about things, and asked, "Mommy, why does Daddy have so little hair on his head?" "He thinks a lot, dear," replied his mother, pleased with herself for coming up with a such good answer to her husband's baldness. "Then why do you have so much hair?" asked Little Johnny.

Willie was quite a boy to have round the house. Willie, at a passing gent, Threw a batch of fresh cement, Crying, "Wait until you dry. Then you'll be a real hard guy." ***** Little Willie, home from school, Where he'd learned the Golden Rule, Said, "If I eat all this cake, Sis won't have a stomach-ache." ***** Little Willie on his bike, Through the village took a hike. Mrs. Thompson blocked the walk. She will live, but still can't talk. ***** Little Willie lit a rocket, Which his dad had in his pocket, Next day he told Cousin Dan, "Daddy is a traveling man." ***** Little Willie in the best of sashes, Fell in the fire and was burned to ashes. By and by the room grew chilly, But no on

A furniture dealer from Knoxville, Tennessee, decided that he wanted to expand the line of furniture in his store, so he decided to go to Paris, France to see what he could find. After arriving in Paris (this being his first trip to the French capitol), he met with some manufacturers and finally selected a line that he thought would sell well back home in Tennessee. To celebrate the new acquisition, he decided to visit a small bistro and have a glass of wine. As he sat enjoying his wine, he noticed that the small place was quite crowded, and that the one other chair at his table was the only vacant seat in the house. Before long, a very beautiful young Parisian woman came to his table, ask

Lorenzo Dow, an evangelist of the last century, was on a preaching tour when he came to a small town one cold winter's night. He entered the local general store to get some warmth, and saw the town's lawyers gathered around the pot-bellied stove, discussing the town's business. Not one offered to allow Dow into the circle. Dow told the men who he was, and that he had recently had a vision where he had been given a tour of Hell, much like the traveler in Dante's Inferno. When one of the lawyers asked him what he had seen, he replied, "Very much what I see here: All of the lawyers, gathered in the hottest place."

Hey, pal! Buddy, friend, mate, amigo! I've just heard that I won first prize in a competition! It's a ten-day holiday for me and five others to Disney World! So I was wondering, if you're not doing anything next Wednesday, if you could put my garbage can out for collection!

"Of course I know what I'm doing!" "Trust me." "Say, what happens if I press this?" "Stop being so negative!" "I'm perfectly fine. Really." "Do you smell something burning?" "It's not that poisonous. Look, if I eat some first will you try it?" "See? Told you I wasn't afraid of heights!" "You know, bears are really very social creatures. That one over there is smiling at me!" "I think this is what they said to do. At any rate, I guess we'll see soon!" "No! Why would I need to read some silly instructions?" "Just wondering - what does skull and cross-bones mean? Did this bottle belong to pirates? It did taste kind of odd."

Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair. Copper is a brown-red color, correct? This is scientific evidence to back up blonde jokes!

I saw this sign in a bar a few years ago. A camel can go eight days without a drink - but who the hell wants to be a camel.
