Bad Day

   

Here's one for the Leafs fans

After living a full and prosperous life, Patrick Roy died. When he arrived in heaven he met up with God who continued to show him around. They came across a modest little house with a faded Colorado Avalanche flag in the window."This house is yours for eternity, Pat," said God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here." Patrick felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house.
On the way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the corner. It was a 3 story mansion with a Blue & White sidewalk, a 50 ft. tall flagpole flying an enormous Toronto Maple Leafs flag, and in every window a Maple Leafs logo. In the front yard was a sign that said, "WELCOME TO HOGTOWN."

Pat looked at God and said: "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I won 3 Stanley Cups, more awards than I can remember and I am the winningest goalie in NHL history.." "So what do you want to know Pat???" "Well, why does Ed Belfour get a better house than I do? "God laughed and said "Pat, that's not Eds' house.... it's MINE!!" GO LEAFS GO!!!

How to call the Police


George Phillips of Meridian Mississippi was going up to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.

He phoned the police and told them about the theft taking place in his shed. The police asked "Is someone in your house?" and he said no. Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available. George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again.

"Hello I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now cause I've just shot them all." Then he hung up. Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response unit and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips residence. Of course, the police caught the burglars red-handed. One of the Policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!" George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!" (True Story)

Here is something to rattle your mind and make you think... - Thanks to Denise Codlin ( Waldron)

Read out loud the text inside the triangle below.

EyeTestT.gif

More than likely you said, "A bird in the bush," and........

if this IS what YOU said, then you failed to see

that the word THE is repeated twice!

Sorry, look again.

Next, let's play with some words.

What do you see?

  EyeTestT.jpg

 In black you can read the word GOOD, in white the word EVIL (inside each black letter is a white letter). It's all very physiological too, because it visualize the concept that good can't exist without evil (or the absence of good is evil ).  

Now, what do you see?

file00020.gif

You may not see it at first, but the white spaces read the word optical, the blue landscape reads the word illusion. Look again! Can you see why this painting is called an optical illusion?

What do you see here?

file00124.jpg

This one is quite tricky!

The word TEACH reflects as LEARN.

Last one.

What do you see?

ALZHEIMERS' EYE TEST


Count every "
F" in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI
FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...


(SEE BELOW)




HOW MANY ?










WRONG, THERE ARE
6 -- no joke.
READ IT AGAIN !

Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 F's before you scroll
down.


The reasoning behind is further down.









The brain cannot process "OF".

 
                       


Incredible or what? Go back and look again!!



Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius.

                       
                       
Three is normal, four is quite rare.

Send this to your friends.
It will drive them crazy.!

And keep them occupied
For several minutes..!
