GOOD MORNING POSTMAN FANS!
DETROIT (AP) - The U.S. Senate has approved legislation
that sponsors say aims to fight the spread of Asian
carp into the Great Lakes.
Author Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., says the Asian Carp
Prevention and Control Act adds the bighead carp species
of Asian carp to a list of injurious species. That
prohibits the species from being imported or shipped in the U.S.
Once again, the politcal powers that be are a day late
and a dollar short. Wonder what the point would be in
making it illegal to bring asian carp here to American
echo systems? They are already here. duh.!!! This carp
began showing up in watersheds throughout the midwest
a few years ago. Primarily brought in from the bilges
of ocean going ships, the foreign, invasive species has
infested a great majority of the Mississipi, the
Illinois watershed, and now threatens the Great lakes, and
succesfully kills off native fish species. In fact,
wouldn't it be a bit more relavent to pass legislation
that would facilitate getting rid of them instead?
I doubt very seriously
that anyone has intentionally brought them in.
In a lot of countries in the far east, the asian carp is
considered to be a delacassie, listed on
the restaraunt menu right next to other fish selections.
The Japanese and Chinese eat it. Catch em and ship it to em.
Maybe Mr. Levin would have been more effective to intro-
duce legislation that would finance harvesting them
instead. It might save the echo systems of the midwest,
and who knows, maybe reduce the unemployment. Give me
a government grant to buy a boat, Mr. Levin, I'll go
fish for your carp. Oh, I forgot, I can't do that cuz
you are paying me Social Security Disability to sit on
my ass all day instead.
Go figger.
We do hope you enjoy today's issue!
Cordially

Once upon a time three avid hunters went hunting
for bear. One was a German, one was a Czechoslovakian
and one was A Frenchman. Though of different
nationalities, they all spoke Fluent English because
they lived in America. Approaching a ranger station,
a ranger came out to question What they were up to.
They explained that they were bear hunting. The
ranger, though congenial, advised them not to
go deep into The forests where they were heading
because the bears were Very large, very strong,
and very hungry. It was very dangerous. He didn't
feel they should go. The three hunters were very
positive about their hunting Abilities and explained
to the ranger that they were very Careful hunters.
But to appease the ranger, they told him That if they
weren't back in three days, to come look for them.
There really wasn't much the ranger could do; he
couldn't Stop them, so he agreed to their terms,
warning them again That it was very dangerous.
Three days went by. And the hunters never returned.
The ranger became extremely concerned. Extremely.
He contacted two other rangers, they gathered up their
Guns, and proceeded into the forest, expecting the
worst. They eventually came to a smoldering campfire
just in front of a cave. Around the campfire lay
the torn clothes of the three hunters. A real sadness
enveloped those sincere rangers. They were pretty
sure what had occurred. Just then three bears
appeared out of the cave. Two bears Were female.
One bear was a male. Nervously, each of the three
Rangers fired on the three bears, killing all three
of them. Using their knives, they opened up the
stomachs of the two female bears and discovered the
remains of the Frenchman and the German. One of the
rangers asked the other two if they should cut open
the stomach of the last bear, but they decided
against it. They knew the Czech was in the male.

A guy walks into a bar with a monkey
The monkey grabs some olives off the bar and eats them.
Then he grabs some sliced limes and eats them.
He then jumps onto the pool table and grabs one of
the balls. To everyone's amazement, he sticks it in
his mouth, and somehow swallows it whole. The bartender
looks at the guy and says, "Did you see what your
monkey just did?"
"No, what?"
"He just ate the cue ball off my pool table... whole!"
"Yeah, that doesn't surprise me," replied the guy,
"he eats everything in sight. Don't worry, I'll pay
for the cue ball." The guy finishes his drink, pays
his bill, pays for the stuff the monkey
ate and leaves. Two weeks later the guy is back, and
has his monkey with him. He orders a drink and the
monkey starts running around the bar. The monkey
finds a maraschino cherry on the bar. He grabs it,
sticks it up his butt, pulls it out, and eats it.
Then the monkey finds a peanut, and again sticks it
up his butt, pulls it out, and eats it.
The bartender asks, "Did you see what your monkey did
just now?" "No, what?" replied the man. "Well, he stuck
both a maraschino cherry and a peanut up his butt, pulled
them out, and ate them!" said the bartender.
"Yeah, that doesn't surprise me," replied the guy.
"He still eats everything in sight, but ever since he
had to shit that cue ball out, he
measures everything first now

A collector of rare books ran into an acquaintance
who told him he had just thrown away an old Bible
that he found in a dusty, old box. He happened to
mention that Guten-somebody-or-other had printed it.
"Not Gutenberg?" gasped the collector.
"Yes, that was it!"
"You idiot! You've thrown away one of the first
books ever printed. A copy recently sold at auction
for half a million dollars!""Oh, I don't think this
book would have been worth anything close to that
much," replied the man. "It was scribbled all over
in the margins by some clown named Martin Luther."
