 | Continued from left column downtown where you may meet that ‘special someone’ at a club. We need to cut loose and spend money onourselves, so have a treat — and wear it too! To finish off your much needed, mini-vacation to the mall, stop at a candle store like Yankee Candle and pick out some fragrances to make your surroundings smell more refreshing. If you have enough of those, no one can deny making themselves smell more pleasing. Why not pick out a perfume or cologne from a department store, or even Bath and Body Works. It will be something you and those around you will enjoy. If we all took a little more time and spent it on ourselves, as well as those we love, we’d be much happier in our busy lives. While we’re not only enjoying ourselves, we’re also helping our local shopping malls, the employees, the economy — all of which will strengthen our personal economic recovery. Let's save America — and have a “fun time" doing it! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| LAKE PARK, FL — Elsie the Cow has nothing on Chick-Fil-A's capricious cow mascot, who goes against the grain as she cajoles customers to "Eat Mor Chiken!" We seized the opportunity to interview this "moover & shaker" at a recent Chick-Fil-A special event. We asked why she was holding up a sign that read "Eat Mor Chiken." Her hoof-written answer: "this is a protest to save the cows." Ohhh-kay . . . we then inquired as to why the sign was misspelled. "Because cows can't spell very well." "So why are Holstein cows used," we asked. "Holsteins are cute," was her 'matter of fact' reply. The cow then went on to explain that The Richards Group, an advertising agency out of Dallas, Texas, created the numerous awards-winning cow mascot campaign, and that the cows were recently inducted into the Advertising Hall of Fame on NYC's Madison Avenue! We had more queries, like "where's the beef, what's your favorite moo-sic, are there any bullfriends on the horizon, your favorite moo-vie" and "what do you think of udder mascots?" But the bashful bovine kept her cool, addressing just one more curiousity: Why Chick-Fil-A is closed on Sundays. "To give the employees an opportunity to rest, spend time with family and friends, and worship if they choose." THAT was an unexpected answer — and spelled correctly too! In this era of business greed, corporate coldness and overworked employees, it was refreshing to hear. And it moooved this writer, so much that he too will forego steak dinners for awhile — and Eat Mor Chiken! After all, that Chick-Fil-A chicken IS delicious. — Dick Kulpa, South Florida Fun Times | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Man tries to snag a free meal — with a talking dog! A penniless patron attempted to get a free meal from a restaurant by claiming his dog could talk! The incredulous manager agreed to give the "talking dog" a shot, so the pooch's owner then asked, "What covers a tree?" "Bark", replied the mutt, a dachshund/chihuahua mix. "What is on top of a house," the patron again asked, and the dog answered "roof!" The manager, sensing a scam, stepped in with his own query. "Who's the greatest player in baseball?" He asked. The dog replied, "roof!" At that, the man — and his pet — were ejected. Just then a Fun Times reporter stumbled upon the dazed pair picking themselves up off the sidewalk. Seeking an explanation, the dog wryly responded, "I fink I should have said "Babe Roof." * * * www.SearchSite.com A new way of searching the Internet * * *  "A financial planner told me the best things to buy these days are CDs. 'Why is that?, I asked.'
