Caught in a Blizzard

Jack decided to go skiing with his buddy, Bob. So they loaded up Jack's mini van and headed north.

After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible blizzard. So they pulled into a nearby farm and asked the attractive lady who answered the door if they could spend the night.

"I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house all to myself, but I'm recently widowed," she explained. "I'm afraid the neighbours will talk if I let you stay in my house."

"Don't worry," Jack said. "We'll be happy to sleep in the barn. And if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light." The lady agreed, and the two men found their way to the barn and settled in for the night.

Come morning, the weather had cleared, and they got on their way. They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing.

About nine months later, Jack got an unexpected letter from an attorney.

It took him a few minutes to figure it out, but he finally determined that it was from the attorney of that attractive widow he had met on the ski weekend.

He dropped in on his friend Bob and asked, "Bob, do you remember that good-looking widow from the farm we stayed at on our ski holiday up North about 9 months ago?"

"Yes, I do." said Bob

"Did you, er, happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house and pay her a visit?"

"Well, um, yes," Bob said, a little embarrassed about being found out. "I have to admit that I did."

"And did you happen to use my name instead of telling her your name?"

Bob's face turned beet red and he said, "Yeah, look, I'm sorry, buddy. I'm afraid I did. Why do you ask?"

"She just died and left me everything."


(And you thought the ending would be different, didn't you?)

Hi Calabar Gal - I was going to ask if you'd like to exchange links, but your blogsite doesn't seem to be there. Are you working on it?

the alternate ending i was going to go for was that on the night she shared her bed and asked them to wear a condom each, then weeks later they were talking and asked each other if they were bothered if she got pregnant. then one said, "can we take these things off then"

I think I may have deleted my entire blog mistakenly and dont know what to do to get it back up and running. Does anyone have any idea what how to restore the blog?

Go into your template and republish your blog.

If that doesn't work, then pick a new template (even if it's the same one) and republish that. All your posts should return, but you will lose everything in your side-bar.

If you want, leave your email in this post and I'll delete it and contact you directlyif you'd like any help.
