One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. 'Which road do I take?' she asked. His response was a question: 'Where do you want to go?' 'I don't know,' Alice answered. 'Then,' said the cat, 'it doesn't matter.'

The train was quite crowded, and a U. S. Marine walked the entire length looking for a seat, but the only seat left was taken by a well dressed, middle-aged, French woman's poodle.
The war-weary Marine asked, 'Ma'am, may I have that seat?'
The French woman just sniffed and said to no one in particular 'Americans are so rude. My little Fifi is using that seat.'
The Marine walked the entire train again, but the only seat left was under that dog.
'Please, ma'am. May I sit down? I'm very tired.'
She snorted, 'Not only are you Americans rude, you are also arrogant!'
This time the Marine didn't say a word; he just picked up the little dog, tossed it out the train window, and sat down.
The woman shrieked, 'Someone must defend my honour! this American should
be put in his place!'
An English gentleman sitting nearby spoke up, 'I say, old boy, you Americans seem to have a penchant for doing the wrong thing. You hold the fork in the wrong hand. You drive your cars on the wrong side of the road. And now, sir, you seem to have thrown the wrong bitch out the window.'
The Lone Ranger and Tonto went camping in the desert. After they got their tent all set up, both men fell sound asleep.
Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, 'Kemo Sabe, look towards sky, what you see?'
'The Lone Ranger replies, 'I see millions of stars..'
'What that tell you?' asked Tonto.
The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute then says, 'Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in
Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning.
Theologically, the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you, Tonto?'
'You dumber than buffalo poop. It means someone stole tent!'

The Talking Dog
by Grandmère Mimi
A guy is driving around the back woods of North Carolina and sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'TALKING DOG FOR SALE'
The man rings the bell and the owner of the house appears, telling him the dog is in the backyard. They both walk around to the backyard, and a nice looking Labrador retriever is sitting there, under a tree.
'Mind if I check him out?' the prospective buyer asks.
'Go right ahead,' answers the owner.
The man walks up to the dog tentatively. 'You talk?' he asks.
'Yep,' the lab replies.
After the man recovers from the shock of hearing a talking dog, he says, 'So, what's your story?'
The dog looks up and says, 'Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA. In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. It was pretty funny to be doing that, but in reality I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running. But the jetting around tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger, so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. Then I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired.'
The guy is amazed. He asks the owner what he wants for the dog.
'Ten dollars,' the guy says.
'Ten dollars? Are you nuts? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'
'Because he's a liar. He never did any of that.'

About ten miles north of the strip on Las Vegas Boulevard lies the Neon Museum Boneyard. It is a wonderful collection of old, tired, but distinctive signs from the casinos of times gone by. It was fun to visit and shoot...enjoy the nostalgia, texture, and color. One factoid I learned that the making of signs with lights, and neon in particular was a craft and art form, and as such the skills were often passed down to as many as three generations. Most of these signs and the ones that are lighting up the sky today, are not owned by the hotels or casinos, but rather the sign companies, who lease them to the property owners. After several years of leasing, the hotel may want a new sign, so what to do with the old ones?
