(Procrastination at its best!)<\/p>\n<p>Well that day has arrived.\u00a0 And yesterday and today I have spent many hours, copying and pasting, editing, hunting up the pictures that matched the stories in my vast collection of MY PICTURES FOLDER and most of all LAUGHING at what my friends have thought wise to send me at various times of our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Following are a collection of Emails and Fax messages sent to me since I first owned a computer way back in the 1980s and people discovered this method of sending things to each other.<\/p>\n<p>Some things are rude I must warn you now, so be wary as to who you allow to read these pages.\u00a0 Some stories appear rascist, and I hope you do not read them as such and only see the humour that appears in the story.\u00a0 They are after all, just a take-off of different people in the world who have habits and who express their way of thinking which is sometimes different to those of our own.\u00a0 They are only words meant to be laughed at and I sincerely hope you see the joke that was intended when you read them.<\/p>\n<p>I have thoroughly enjoyed going through my old papers these past couple of days and remembering the person who sent them to me and what was happening in the current events of the world and our country at the time.\u00a0 Above all, I have laughed and shared that laughter with my husband Keith, who laughed so much at some of them, the tears rolled down his face.<\/p>\n<p>That gave me much pleasure seeing him do that.\u00a0 Because I know that he enjoys a good joke.\u00a0 And I know there are many people out there in the world, who also enjoy a good joke.\u00a0 Please let that be you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"img-box\" style=\"color: #5c5c5c;\">\n<p><a title=\"Click here to play the audio presentation of this post\" href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/lifehappensvol1.wma\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to play\u00a0the audio presentation\u00a0of this post<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Click here to download the audio presentation of this post.\" href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/lifehappensvol1.zip\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to download the audio presentation of this post.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"img-box\" style=\"color: #5c5c5c;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"img-box\" style=\"color: #5c5c5c;\"><a title=\"Debbie Nicholson - Author\" href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/humor.html\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Debbie-Nicholson-Author-Kindle-Store-125.jpg\" alt=\"Debbie Nicholson - Author\" width=\"125\" height=\"125\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Life Happens This is the first Volume of my series of Life Happens Kindle eBooks which was gathered over a period of many years of\u00a0funny faxes and emails from friends from all over the world. \u00a0One day when I was packing up my house to finally say goodbye to that style of living, I went&hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/laugh-till-you-cry-how-my-first-book-in-the-life-happens-series-started\/\">Continue reading&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,1],"tags":[8,16],"class_list":["post-18","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-debbie-nicholson","category-uncategorized","tag-life-happens","tag-life-happens-kindle-ebooks"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32,"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18\/revisions\/32"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
