A man goes to his doctor after losing a lot ofweight."I feel great, but I have a problem, doctor. I was sofat beforehand that my skin has stretched andstayed that long. Is there anything you can giveme?""Hmm, short of plastic surgery, there is only onealternative. Please take off your clothes."The man strips down. The doctor pulls all his skinupwards and ties it in a ball above his head."But doctor -- now my navel is in the middle of myforehead!""True," replies the doctor, "and you should seewhat you have for a collar and tie."


Anger Management made easy!When you occasionally have a really bad day, read thisfor what you need to know.I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phonecall I'd forgotten to make. I found the number anddialed it. A man answered, saying 'Hello.'I politely said, 'This is Chris. Could I please speak withRobyn Carter?'Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear 'Get theright f*** ing number!' and the phone was slammeddown on me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be sorude. When I tracked down Robyn's correct number tocall her, I found that I had accidentally transposed thelast two digits. After hanging up with her, I decided tocall the 'wrong' number again. When the same guyanswered the phone, I yelled 'You're an asshole!' andhung up. I wrote his number down with the word'asshole' next to it, and put it in my desk drawer. Everycouple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a reallybad day, I'd call him up and yell, 'You're an asshole!' Italways cheered me up.When Caller ID was introduced, I thought mytherapeutic asshole calling would have to stop.So, I called his number and said, 'Hi, this is John Smithfrom the telephone company. I'm calling to see if you'refamiliar with our Caller ID Program?'He yelled 'NO!' and slammed down the phone. I quicklycalled him back and said, 'That's because you're anasshole!' and hung up.One day I was at the store, getting ready to pull into aparking spot. Some guy in a black BMW cut me off andpulled into the spot I had patiently waited for. I hit thehorn and yelled that I'd been waiting for that spot, butthe idiot ignored me. I noticed a 'For Sale ' sign in hisback window, so I wrote down his number.A couple of days later, right after calling the firstasshole (I had his number on speed dial), I thought thatI'd better call the BMW asshole, too.I said, 'Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?'He said, 'Yes, it is..'I asked, 'Can you tell me where I can see it?'He said, 'Yes, I live at 34 Oaktree Blvd, in Fairfax.It's a yellow ranch style house, and the car's parkedright out in front.'I asked, 'What's your name?' He said, 'My name is DonHansen.'I asked, 'When's a good time to catch you, Don?'He said, 'I'm home every evening after five.'I said, 'Listen, Don, can I tell you something?'He said, 'Yes?'I said, 'Don, you're an asshole!'Then I hung up, and added his number to my speed dial,too. Now, when I had a problem, I had two assholes tocall.

Then I came up with an idea.I called Asshole #1.He said, 'Hello.'I said, 'You're an asshole!'(But I didn't hang up.)He asked, 'Are you still there?'I said, 'Yeah.'He screamed, 'Stop calling me!'I said, 'Make me.'He asked, 'Who are you?'I said, 'My name is Don Hansen.'He said, 'Yeah? Where do you live?'I said, 'Asshole, I live at 34 Oaktree Blvd in Fairfax; its ayellow ranch style house, and I have a black Beamerparked in front.'He said, 'I'm coming over right now, Don. And you hadbetter start saying your prayers.'I said, 'Yeah, like I'm really scared, asshole,' and hungup.Then I called Asshole No. 2.He said, 'Hello?'I said, 'Hello, asshole.'He yelled, 'If I ever find out who you are...'I said, 'You'll what?'He exclaimed, 'I'll kick your ass!'I answered, 'Well, asshole, here's your chance.I'm coming over right now.'Then I hung up and immediately called the police,saying that I lived at 34 Oaktree Blvd, in Fairfax, andthat my gay lover said he was on his way over to killme.Then I called Channel 9 News about a gang war goingdown on Oaktree Blvd. in Fairfax.I quickly got into my car and headed over to Fairfax Igot there just in time to watch two assholes beatingthe crap out of each other in front of six cop cars, anoverhead news helicopter and surrounded by a newscrew.NOW I feel much better.Anger management really works!

Two women go out one weekend without theirhusbands. As they came back,just before dawn,both of them drunk, they felt the urge to pee.They noticed that the only place to stop was acemetery. Scared and drunk, they stopped anddecided to go there anyway. The first one didnot have anything to blot herself with, so shetook her panties off, used them and discardedthem. The second, not finding anything either,thought "I'm not getting rid of my panties..." soshe used the ribbon of a nearby flower wreath.The morning after, the two husbands weretalking to each other on the phone, and one saysto the other: "We have to be on the look-out; itseems that these two were up to no good lastnight, my wife came home without her panties."The other one responded: "You're lucky, minecame home with a card stuck to her butt thatread, "We will never forget you."

A chicken farmer went to the local bar.

I am celebrating""It is a special day for me too, I am alsocelebrating!" said the woman."What a coincidence." said the farmer.While they toasted, the farmer asked, "What areyou celebrating?""My husband and I have been trying to have achild for years, and today my gynecologist told methat I was pregnant.""What a coincidence," said the man. "I am a chickenfarmer and for years all my hens were infertile, butnow they are all set to lay fertilized eggs.""This is awesome," said the woman.

PLUMBER OF THE MONTH AWARD!

THE WOODEN SEAT IS A NICE TOUCH!AND WE’VE ALL ENCOUNTERED

WORSE HERE SOMETIMES!

There was a little old lady standing at a corner.She had both hands holding her hat on while thewind blew her dress up around her waist.A dignified southern gentleman came up and said,"Ma'am, you should be ashamed of yourself, lettingyour skirt blow around, being indecent, while bothhands hold your hat."She said, "Look mister, everything down there isseventy years old; this hat is brand new!"


CM’S DEFINITELY NOT THE NEWS!Because rumour, gossip, hearsay and anecdotes are just sooo much more fun!

Welcome to a new feature we’re going to test drive! It’s basically going to be tidbits about life here on theNorth Coast. Things that affect us. Things that amuse us. Things that annoy us. None of it is hard corejournalism. It’s what we’ve heard, seen and experienced. Feel free to email us [email protected] with updates, clarifications, corrections or whatever.And keep in mind - we are not claiming that this is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth! It’sjust a glimpse of what’s happening and sometimes a bit of fun! Don’t take it too seriously!

EASTER MIRACLE!After weeks of the power being bad as it was, it gotworse! I know hard to believe! Apparently, San Felipepower plant was offline again. And then, in keepingwith the season, we are blessed with 4, count ‘em, 4straight days of 24 hour power for Semana Santa!We’ll have to wait and see what next week brings andhow badly we’ll have to pay for this Easter treat!

Where the books are free but the rent is not!Thanks to all who have contributed towardsthe US$200 rent per month. Especially to theBelliards & Curtis who have raised fundsthrough excursions to places of interest & theTuesday night movies at El Carey.We still need donations to get through theyear.Please contact Marilyn Putnam 809 970 7056Or Ann Walsh 829 929 2980

COSTAMBAR POLE DANCING!Big, beautiful new electrical poles are being installedin Costambar in advance of Edenorte redoing all theelectrical cables and, hopefully, stripping out the old,useless hornets nest of wires that currently grace ourskyline. No idea how long all this will take and ourpower situation will probably deteriorate during theprocess. But hey, it’s something to dance in thestreets about - and we’ve got the poles to do it!

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER!We apologize for being out late this month butbetween a new printer (so we can print it ourselvesagain and get the quality back up) that got lost intransit and what is arguably the most popular holidayweekend in the DR things just didn’t go as planned.But if you live here you’re used to that right?!

On behalf of Blanco's Kids, Thank You to all the Artists,Crafters, Helpers, and those who came to support the2nd Annual Arts & Crafts Show and Sale at Minerva'sRestaurant. The wonderful QUILT was won by Liz Craikof Cofresi.Thank you, Minerva, for providing the space !The show was a great community and financial success.Look for us next year !

BEYOND THE BEACH CHILDREN’S FOUNDATIONWe would like to thank Kevin & Patricia at El Carey Restaurant for allowing us to hold a Meet and Greet there on Friday,February 1st. We had five charities attending who received a total of $6,500 US. Two charities who could not attendreceived $2,200 US total. El Carey also allowed us to use some of their tables to hold several pounds of hard goodswhich were also distributed to these charities. Patricia was also good enough to donate a bamboo beer holder whichwe will be auctioning off at our Dominican Fiesta in Ontario in July. The Fiesta is one of our fundraisers to enable us tomake these financial donations.Sylvia at Syl's Place was also kind enough to donate a bamboo beer holder which will also be auctioned off. Last yearshe was kind enough to donate 2 gift certificates which we sold at the Meet and Greet.

If you ever testify in court, you might wish youcould have been as sharp as this policeman.He was being cross-examined by a defenseattorney during a felony trial. The lawyer wastrying to undermine the police officer's credibility.Q: 'Officer --- did you see my client fleeing thescene?'A: 'No sir. But I subsequently observed a personmatching the description of the offender, runningseveral blocks away.'Q: 'Officer, who provided this description?'A: 'The officer who responded to the scene.'Q: 'A fellow officer provided the description of thisso-called offender. Do you trust your fellowofficers?'A: 'Yes, sir. With my life.'Q: 'With your life? Let me ask you this thenofficer. Do you have a room where you changeyour clothes in preparation for your daily duties?'A: 'Yes sir, we do!'Q: 'And do you have a locker in the room?'A: 'Yes, sir, I do.'Q: 'And do you have a lock on your locker?'A: 'Yes, sir.'Q: 'Now, why is it, officer, if you trust your fellowofficers with your life, you find it necessary to lockyour locker in a room you share with these sameofficers?'A: 'You see, sir, we share the building with thecourt complex, and sometimes lawyers have beenknown to walk through that room.'The courtroom EXPLODED with laughter, and aprompt recess was called. The officer on the standhas been nominated for this year's 'BestComeback' line -- and we think he'll win.
