There were so many people that mentioned how nice she is, to include PM's. So, here she is in my next giveaway.

Rules:

Usually my giveaways are just post your name below and I chose in some carcamanie way, but this time it will be differnet.

This time you must include a Safety Message, short and sweet.

Every long weekend, we have a safety brief, the commander looks around and asks random people for a safety message.

Examples are: Do not drink and drive

and on the light side: Do not pet a burning dog.

OK, give me some new ones and your name will be added to the hat.

Reguardless of how good/bad your message is, you will be entered.

Deadline.....Friday (this one)

    Every afternoon, when Bill Clinton takes a jog around his Harlem
    office, he passes a hooker on the same street corner. As he goes
    by, she shouts out "FIFTY DOLLARS !", and he yells "NO, FIVE
    DOLLARS!"

    This continues for several days. He jogs by, she says "FIFTY
    DOLLARS!", and he says "NO, FIVE DOLLARS!"

    Then his wife Senator Hillary Clinton visits and decides she wants
    to go jogging with Bill. As they are approaching the now infamous
    street-corner, Bill suddenly realizes that the hooker will yell out
    her $50 offer and that he will have some explaining to do with
    Hillary.

    Bill is still in a quandary as to what to do as they turn the
    corner, and sure enough, there is the hooker. He turns his head and
    jogs by without looking her way, hoping she will miss him. Just as
    they pass, the hooker looks up and yells to Bill,

    "SEE WHAT YOU GET FOR FIVE DOLLARS"

    I know with my DA first reply I could not win, but I just now realised my mistake.

    Sorry, I thought it was for amusing sayings/comments..... truely made a Whooopsie here.

    Don't swallow the watermelon seeds, you'll grow watermelon plants in your stomach.
    Don't swallow your gum, it will never come out.
    Never drink soda after eating pop rocks or you'll explode.
    Don't drink from puddles or you'll get worms. (That one was for the dog when I was a kid, but I assume it should apply to everyone.)
