Horseplay at its best!

Image result for a horse head and a horse butt

A farmer died leaving his 17 horses to his 3 sons.
When his sons opened up the Will it read:

My eldest son should get 1/2 (half) of total horses.
My middle son should be given 1/3rd (one-third) of the total horses.
My youngest son should be given 1/9th (one-ninth) of the total horses.

As it’s impossible to divide 17 into half or 17 by 3 or 17 by 9, the three sons started to fight with each other.
So, they decided to go to a farmer’s friend who they considered quite smart, to see if he could work it out for them.

The farmer’s friend read the Will patiently, after giving due thought, he brought one of his own horses over and added it to the 17. That increased the total to 18 horses.

Now, he divided the horses according to their father’s Will.

Half of 18 = 9. So he gave the eldest son 9 horses.
1/3rd of 18 = 6. So he gave the middle son 6 horses.
1/9th of 18 = 2. So he gave the youngest son 2 horses.

Now add up how many horses they have:

Eldest son……..9
Middle son…….6
Youngest son…2
TOTAL IS…….17.

Now this leaves one horse over, so the farmer’s friend takes his horse back to his farm.

Problem Solved!

Moral of the story:

The attitude of negotiation and problem solving is to find the 18th horse i.e. the common ground. Once a person is able to find the 18th horse the issue is resolved. It is difficult at times. However, to reach a solution, the first step is to believe that there is a solution. If we think that there is no solution, we won’t be able to reach any!

I do believe that My Hero & President, Donald J. Trump has always lived by the Moral of this story, shown above. It sure sounds like The Art Of The Deal to me. Read that Moral one more time, if you will. In our president’s mind, he has a huge corral…filled with 18th horses. What a great leader we have in President Trump! While the Democrats/ RINOS in America and all political parties in the other countries  of the world continue trying to divide 17 by 2, 3 & 9…President Trump is taking another 18th horse back into America’s huge corral,
which he created.
God Bless Donald Trump & God Bless America.

A Secret Agent…

A secret agent is sent to Ireland to deliver a top secret package. “Go to this small town in Ireland, find our agent named O’Malley and say the following to him: ‘the shadows of the moon are getting dark.’ He’ll reply ‘but the sun will guarantee the light.’ When he says that, give him the package and head home.”

So the agent goes to the small Irish town but only sees a handful of shops and a farm. He walks up to the farmer and says “I’m looking for a man named O’Malley.”

The farmer replies “you need to be more specific than that. The bank manager is named O’Malley, the Butcher is O’Malley, the undertaker is O’Malley and for that matter, I’m O’Malley too.”

Hearing that he says to the farmer in a hushed voice “the shadows of the moon are getting dark.”

The farmer replies “oh you’re looking for O’Malley the spy. He lives in the next community west.”

Coincidence?

A chicken farmer went to the local bar, sat down next to a woman and ordered a glass of champagne.

The woman said, “How strange, I also just ordered a glass of champagne”.

“What a coincidence” said the farmer, who added. “It is a special day for me…I’m celebrating”.

“It is a special day for me too. I am also celebrating” said the woman.

“What a coincidence” said the farmer.

While they toasted, the man asked. “What are you celebrating”?

“My husband and I have been trying to have a child for years, and today my gynecologist told me that I was pregnant”.

“What a coincidence” said the man. “I’m a chicken farmer and for years all my hens were infertile, but now they are all set to lay fertilized eggs.”

“This is awesome” said the woman. “What did you do for your chickens to become fertile?”

“I used a different rooster” the farmer said.

The woman smiled and said. “What a coincidence.”

Colors are hard to describe.   This guy breaks down the colors in light, much the same as water droplets break down sunlight to make a rainbow.

Pantone announces its color of the year as ‘Cloud Dancer’.   It is an off-white color so it is naturally RACIST.

Since Hillary lost the election everything involving color is racist.    The media even changes their reports to lie about black criminals.   This is a recent example.

Astronomy Picture of the Day

Jupiter and the Meteors from Gemini
Image Credit & Copyright: David Cruz

Explanation: Jupiter, the Solar System’s ruling gas giant, is the brightest celestial beacon at the center of this composite night skyscape. The scene was constructed by selecting the 40 exposures containing meteors from about 500 exposures made on the nights of December 13 and 14, near peak activity for this year’s annual Geminid meteor shower. With each selected exposure registered in the night sky above Alentejo, Portugal, planet Earth, it does look like the meteors are streaming away from Jupiter. But the apparent radiant of the Geminid meteors is actually closer to bright star Castor, in the shower’s eponymous constellation Gemini. In this frame that’s just a little above and left of the Solar System’s most massive planet. Still, the parent body of Geminid meteors is known to be rocky, near-Earth asteroid 3200 Phaethon. And the orbit of Phaethon itself is influenced by the gravitational attraction exerted by massive Jupiter, in concert with planets of the inner Solar System.

Bible Verse

Remember that the Lord God sees what everyone does. He takes care of people who do what is right. When they pray, he listens to them. But the Lord God turns against people who do evil things.
