Mo Hawg - Week 41


Day 1.

   Mo’s Wisdom: When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we don’t see the one which has been opened for us.

   Mo’s Favorite World News Story for Today: (These are real, Mo is told!)  From the Guardian concerning a sign seen in a Police canteen in Christchurch, New Zealand: “Will the person who took a slice of cake from the Commissioner’s Office return it immediately.  It is needed as evidence in a poisoning case.”

   One of our Colquitt County First Grade teachers gave each of her students the first half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come u p with the remainder of the proverb.  It’s  amazing that these were done by first graders as their insight will surprise you!

   Strike while the…bug is close.

   The Last Mo’s Wisdom for Today: Laugh every day.  It’s like inner jogging!

Day 2.

   Mo’s Wisdom: Maybe the best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the bests conversation you’ve ever had.

   Mo’s Favorite World News Story for Today: (These are real, Mo is told!)  From The Times: A young girl, who was blown out to sea on a set of inflatable teeth, was rescued by a man on an inflatable lobster.  A Coast Guard spokesman commented, “This sort of thing is all too common these days.”

   One of our Colquitt County First Grade teachers gave each of her students the first half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come u p with the remainder of the proverb.  It’s  amazing that these were done by first graders as their insight will surprise you!

   Never underestimate the power of….termites.

Day 3. 

   Mo’s Wisdom: Maybe it is true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it, but it is also true that we don’t know what we’ve been missing until it arrives.

   Mo’s Favorite World News Story for Today: (These are real, Mo is told!)  From The Guardian: In Sydney, 120 men named Henry attacked each other during a “My Name is Henry” convention.  Henry Pantie of Canberra accused Henry Pap of Sydney of not being a Henry at all, but in fact, an Angus.  “It was a lie,” explained Mr. Pap.  “I’m a Henry and always will be,” whereupon Henry Pap attacked Henry Pantie, whilst two other Henrys – Jones and Dyer – attempted to pull them apart.  Several more Henrys – smith, Calderwood and Andrews p became involved and soon the entire convention descended into a giant fist fight.  The brawl was eventually broken up by riot police, led by a man named Shane.

   More Mo’s Wisdom: Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape!

Day 4.

   Mo’s Wisdom: When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.  Live your life so that when you die, you are the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.

   Mo’s Favorite World News Story for Today: (These are real, Mo is told!)  From the Deerby Abbey Community News: We apologize for the error in the last edition, in which we stated that “Mr. Fed Nicolme is a defective in the police force.”   This was a typographical error.  We meant of course, that Mr. Nicolme is a detective in the police farce.

   One of our Colquitt County First Grade teachers gave each of her students the first half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come u p with the remainder of the proverb.  It’s amazing that these were done by first graders as their insight will surprise you!

   It’s always darkest before…Daylight Saving Time.

Day 5.

   Mo’s Eating Tips for any Special Gathering.  About those carrot sticks.  Avoid them.  Anybody who puts carrots on a birthday table or a reunion table, knows nothing of the festive spirit.  In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately and go next door where they are serving lemon meringue pie.  (These tips are in fun, folks!  Carrots are actually good for you, even if they aren’t much fun.)

   Mo’s Favorite News Story from 2003: A huge communication corporation fired its president after nine months, saying he lacked intellectual leadership.  He received a $26 million severance package.  Perhaps, it’s not the fired president who lacked the intelligence!  Oink!

   One of our Colquitt County First Grade teachers gave each of her students the first half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come u p with the remainder of the proverb.  It’s  amazing that these were done by first graders as their insight will surprise you!

   You can lead a horse to water but….how?
