Special
Member Needs/Offerings
House Sitter
Needed
Hi Friends,
We live on Sugarloaf 10 miles west of Boulder. We are looking for a
house sitter for Friday night February 29th through dinner Sunday March
2nd. We have 2 very friendly dogs, and 3 well-behaved horses. The dogs
need to be walked twice a day, and fed dinner, with company over night.
The horses need to be
fed twice a day.
It is beautiful and peaceful and quiet up here. We will be happy to pay
for someone to house sit and take care of our loving animals who are
very important to us.
If you are interested, or know of someone else who might be interested,
please call me at 303-442-6656. Leave a message if I am not home and I
will call you back.
Thank you very much.

Three
sons of a Yiddishe Mama left their homeland, went abroad and prospered.
They discussed the gifts they were able to give their old mother.
Avraham, the first, said: "I built a big house for our mother." Moishe,
the second, said: "I sent her a Mercedes with a driver." David, the
youngest, said: "You remember how our mother enjoys reading the bible.
Now she can't see very well. I sent her a remarkable parrot that
recites the whole bible -- Mama just has to name the chapter and verse."
Soon thereafter, a letter of thanks came from their mother.
"Avraham, the house you built is so huge. I live only in one room, but
I have to clean the whole house. Moishe, I am too old to travel. I stay
most of the time at home so I rarely use the Mercedes. And that driver
has shpilkas -- he's a pain in the tuchas. But David, the chicken was
delicious!"
