JOKES   Submitted by Nancy Avery & Rachel Breau

A friend of mine, being unhappy with his wife’s mood swings,

bought her a mood ring the other day so he would be able to monitor

her moods.

They discovered that when she was in a good mood, the ring turns green

and when she was in a bad mood, it left a BIG red mark on his forehead.

Maybe next time he'll buy her a diamond ring!

 

~ Two Little Boys ~

After a hardy rainstorm filled all the potholes in the streets and alleys,
a young mother watched her two little boys playing in the puddle through

her kitchen window.
The older of the two, a five year old lad, grabbed his sibling by the
back of his head and shoved his face into the water hole..
As the boy recovered and stood laughing and dripping, the mother runs to
the yard in a panic.
' Why on earth did you do that to your little brother?!' she asks as she shook
the older boy in anger.< BR>'We were just playing 'church' mommy, ' he said.
'And I was just baptizing him.....in the name of the Father, the Son and
in...the hole-he-goes.'

 

 Recipe of the Month

 

Mackerel

 

Ingredients
4 Mackerels,

2 oz butter,

pinch of garlic salt,

1 small onion grated or chopped,

an orange cut into chunks ,grated rind and juice of 1 orange,

salt and pepper to taste, few sprigs of parsley.

 

Preparation
After heading, gutting and cleaning fish season with salt and pepper.

Then mix butter until soft add the orange rind and juice mixing until smooth. Add the garlic salt and onion mixing well. Divide this into 4 portions and place inside each mackerel.

Place each fish on a large piece of greased foil and fold and crimp edges together to form a parcel over each fish making sure no juices can escape. Place the parcels on a baking tin or casserole dish and bake for 30 minutes in a preheated oven. When cooked open parcels and decorate with orange pieces and parsley. Serve hot or cold.

 

 

 

Mackerel Facts

The Atlantic Mackerel is typically an open ocean fish with voracious feeding habits. They travel in schools that often contain thousands of fish.  The swift swimming mackerel has a streamlined body and swims at high speeds for extended periods of time searching for food.  All individuals within a specific school tend to be the same size.  Since cruising speed increases significantly with age and size, scientists believe that conformity of body size within a specific school is necessary to allow all fish to maintain identical swimming speeds.  Mackerel may grow as large as 7 1/2 pounds and have a maximum age of about 20 years.

Parkinson Society Maritime Region
Parkinson's is a progressive neurological disorder that affects more than 1.1 million people in Canada and the United States. Presently over 8,400 people in the Maritimes live with Parkinson’s, 20 percent of them are under the age of 50 with some being diagnosed in their twenties. This condition results from a loss of dopamine-producing nerve cells in the brain. The reason behind the cell death is still unclear. There is no known cure for Parkinson's.   Several famous Canadians were noted to have Parkinson’s, including the Right Honorable Pierre Elliott Trudeau, the former Montreal Canadians hockey player, Maurice Richard and the actor, Michael J. Fox.

The newly formed Greater Miramichi Parkinson Chapter will hold their 1st annual "SuperWalk for Parkinson" on Sunday, September 7th, 08. Registration is at 12:30 pm with the walk starting at 1:30pm., at the Douglastown Community Center, Miramichi.
