This was a good one. You finally got back to work. There is a home
inspection at my house tonight at 7:00pm. A couple first bid $147 and
then went to the full asking price. I hope to speak to you later so
we can talk about Grove Square!! I did ride by after Todd Sandler but
no car was there. I was so close by.

Subject: IQs
Three guys are out having a relaxing day fishing.
Out of the blue, they catch a mermaid who begs to be set free in
return
for granting each of them a wish. Now one of the guys just doesn't
believe it, and says, "Okay, if you
can really grant wishes, then double my IQ."
The mermaid says, "Done."
Suddenly the guy starts reciting Shakespeare flawlessly and
analyzing it with extreme insight.
The second guy is so amazed, he says to the mermaid, "Triple my IQ."
The mermaid says, "Done."
The guy starts to spout out all the mathematical solutions to
problems that have been stumping all the scientists in various fields:
physics, chemistry,etc.
The last guy is so enthralled with the changes that his friends that
he says to the mermaid, "Quintuple my IQ."
The mermaid looks at him and says, "You know, I don't usually try to
change people's minds when they make a wish, but I really wish that
you
would reconsider."
The guy says, "No, I want you to increase my IQ times five, and if
you don't do it, I won't set you free."
"Please," says the mermaid, "You don't understand what you're
asking, it will change your entire view on the universe. Won't you ask
for
something
else....a million dollars, anything?"
But no matter what the mermaid said, the guy insisted on having his IQ
increased by five times its usualpower. So the mermaid sighed and
said,
"Done."
And he became a woman.
