JOKE: Where the grass is always greener...
Where the grass is always greener...
It's important in life to reach out, to strive for greater achievements,
to go for that greener grass that's on the other side of the fence.
But one must also be careful - sometimes you can reach too far!
When you find yourself overextended and you're stuck in
a situation that you can't get out of, there's one thing
that you should always remember...
Not everyone who shows up is there to help you...and they might not have your best interest at heart
Fire Department Extricates Huges Dog Stuck in Cat Door
UK
This is the enormous 189 pound dog who was stuck for two hours after getting his head wedged in a cat flap.
Huge hound Moses Chan had to be rescued by firefighters after squeezing his big head into the tiny hole.
The 14-month-old Dogue de Bordeaux, who measures more than 5ft tall on his hind legs, had been trying to copy his owner's four cats, but didn't realise how big he was.
Barking like mad: Moses Chan was left lodged for two hours after squeezing his head into a cat flap
'I can't believe I have a blonde dog who thought he could fit in such a tiny gap,' said owner Lisa Saberi, who has only had Moses a week.
'He seems to think he's a cat. He is always trying to play with them and he tries to eat their food if I'm not watching.'
Lisa, 29, had left Moses to run around in the garden while she went to the shops with her 13-year-old daughter, Natasha and son Hayden, 10.
Pet Rescue: It took firefighters 45 minutes to set Moses free from the cat flap
But Moses got fed up with being outside and when he saw cats Hunni, Clover, Paddy and Marley going through the cat flap he decided to do the same.
Luckily next-door neighbour Reece Young, 12, heard Moses whimpering for help and quickly realised what was wrong when he peered over the fence and could only see the back end of the big dog sticking out the door.
He quickly tried to free the huge dog but had no luck so called his mum, Jackie, who came home and phoned the fire brigade.
Puppy love: Moses with owner Lisa Saberi, 29
Lisa, from Welwyn Garden City, Bucks, a mature student at Ruskin Anglia University, Cambridge said: 'I wondered what was going on when I got back. I couldn't believe Moses had been so silly.
'He looked so sad and sorry for himself I was really concerned, but it was a very funny sight. You could just see this huge head.'
It took 45 minutes for the firemen to rescue Moses by drilling holes around the plastic cat flap.
The poor pooch was then taken to the vet with a grazed neck but is now on the mend.
Lisa added: 'He was very worn out and distressed, but he's much better now. I've taken the cat flap out and will board up the hole so it won't happen again.'
JOKE: the Red Sox Fan
A Boston Red Sox fan was enjoying himself at the game in a packed Fenway Park, until he noticed an empty seat down in front. He went down and asked the guy next to it if he knew whose seat it was. The guy said, "Yes, that's my wife's seat. We have never missed a game since Ted Williams played, but now my wife is dead."
The fan offered his sympathy and said it was really too bad that he couldn't find some relative to enjoy the game with.
"Oh no - I can." the guy replied. "It's just that they're all at the funeral."

Dunno About This
Scientists are examining cow farts and burps in a novel bid to combat global warming. 
Argentine scientists are strapping plastic tanks to the backs of cows
Experts said the slow digestive system of cows makes them a key producer of methane, a potent greenhouse gas that gets far less public attention than carbon dioxide.
In a bid to understand the impact of the wind produced by cows on global warming, scientists collected gas from their stomachs in plastic tanks attached to their backs.
The Argentine researchers discovered methane from cows accounts for more than 30 per cent of the country's total greenhouse emissions.
As one of the world's biggest beef producers, Argentina has more than 55 million cows grazing in its famed Pampas grasslands.
Guillermo Berra, a researcher at the National Institute of Agricultural Technology, said every cow produces between 8000 to 1,000 litres of emissions every day.
Methane, which is also released from landfills, coal mines and leaking gas pipes, is 23 times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide.
Scientists are now carrying out trials of new diets designed to improve cows's digestion and hopefully reduce global warming. Silvia Valtorta, of the National Council of Scientific and Technical Investigations, said that by feeding cows clover and alfalfa instead of grain "you can reduce methane emissions by 25 percent".
JOKE: Three Young Native Americans
When the new school year started the history teacher was so excited because there were three little Indian boys in her class. She was beside herself with excitement. So she asks the first little Indian boy to stand up and tell the class what tribe he was from and how he knows this.
The little boy stands up and proudly throws out his chest & takes his fist and hits it on his chest. He says in a booming voice " I am a Cherokee. My Father and I walked for many moons and one day my Father says son, you see all this land. This is Cherokee land. So, I know I am a Cherokee."
The teacher says very good and asks the next little Indian boy to stand.
The little boy stands up and proudly throws out his chest & takes his fist and hits it on his chest. He says in a booming voice " I am a Comanche. My Father and I walked for many moons and one day my Father says son, you see all this land. This is Comanche land. So, I know I am a Comanche."
The teacher is growing more excited by the moment and asks the last little Indian boy to stand up.
The little boy stands up and proudly throws out his chest & takes his fist and hits it on his chest. He says in a booming voice " I am a Fuckawee".
The teacher looks dumb founded & says "I don't think there is any such tribe as the Fuckawee."
The little boy says, "My Father & I walked for many days and many nights, and many nights and many days. We ran out of water, but we kept walking. With no rest, we were getting weary. Finally, one day my Father stops and with his hand to shield the sun from his eyes, looks around.
"He said hummmm, where the Fuckawee"
JOKE: A little girl was out with her Grandmother
A little girl was out with her Grandmother when they came across a couple of dogs mating on the sidewalk.
"What are they doing, Grandma?" asked the little girl.
The grandmother was embarrassed, so she said, "The dog on top has hurt his paw, and the one underneath is carrying him to the doctor."
"They're just like people, aren't they Grandma?"
"How do you mean?" asked the Grandmother.
"Offer someone a helping hand," said the little girl, "...and they screw you everytime!"
