The Wandering Newfie

A Newfie's a Newfie wherever he goes It don't seem to matter the cut of his clothes The gleam in his eyes and the way that he walks And the true Newfie tone in the way that he talks!! I'M STILL JUST A NEWFIE IN A CALGARY HAT!! Leave me a Message! HUGZ!!

Smart Newfie

Smitty left Newfoundland and moved to Toronto and bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. The following day, the farmer drove up and said, "I'm sorry, but I have some bad news... the donkey died last night." "Well, den" said Smitty, "Jus' give my money back, yeah." "I can't do that sir, I went and spent it already." OK, den. Jus' unload dat donkey." "What are you gonna do with him?" "I'm gon' to raffle him off." "You can't raffle a dead donkey, you dumb Newfie!" "Well dats where you wrong.
You wait you an' you learn how smart we Newfie's are!" A month later the farmer ran into the Newfie and asked, "What happened with that dead donkey?" "I raffled dat donkey off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece and made $998." "Didn't anyone complain?" "Just dat guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."

Also, it was fun to look at your sons' blog. My sons also have a blog, and they don't know many other blogging kids. If your boys are interested in visiting another kids' blog, have them drop by

They haven't posted in a while, but may regain interest if they know someone other than their mother is visiting! ;-); 10:58 AM
