One of the morning shows had a brief report on the strong likelihood of natural redheads of the world (the largest population resides in the U.S.) being extinct within 100 years. I wonder if that entitles us to an “endangered species” catagorization?

Island weather can be very unpredicatable and on exceptional mornings the sun illuminates the entire sky with a brilliant golden hue.

Humor, it is a curious thing. Most people would agree that to have a “sense” of one is an important factor to survival in our modern, hectic, and stress-filled existence. What seems to differ is exactly what each individual finds humorous. As for me when it comes to “jokes”, if I can honestly say I would find the situation humorous if I were the person that the “joke” were being played on…that’s funny. Otherwise, in my eyes the so-called joke is probably mean-hearted and the intentions are just plain cruel. How about you? What do you call “funny”?
