Joke of the Week! "The Best Gift"

Sorry there was no joke last week. There will be no joke next week, too. :(

A convict in jail for 20 years sent his mother a birthday card. Unfortunately, the only paper he had was a post card that said "Wish you were here".

Airsoft Party

Yesterday I had my birthday party. (Yes, yesterday was my birthday, for those who were wondering)
Anyway, I had a bunch of friends over to play airsoft. (It's kinda like shooting a BB gun at someone only it shoots plastic instead of metal and it is not as powerful as a BB gun.)
Within the first five minutes of playing, three of the guys on my team had been killed, including me. Our team didn't win that one.
But the next round took longer and we also won it, thanks to a sniper rifle.
The next round we lost, but we were going up against a machine gun and a sniper rifle.
The round after that we were not able to finsh, it lasted almost a hour.
It was a fun party.

My grandparents gave me a .22 rifle for my birthday.
It is really nice!

   

At the end, my mom took a picture of us

 I thank God for allowing me to live another year and for giving me such good friends.

Matt's Spicy Cheese Salsa

Yesterday I became a mad scientist in our kitchen. I made my own cheese salsa. Amazingly, it turned out pretty good. I guess Boy Scout Cooking has helped a lot.

Here is my recipe:
For a family night size:
2 1/2 - 3 1/2 cups of shredded cheese
1/2 cup of milk
1 tbsp water
1/4 cup diced tomato
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup red bell pepper
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp onion salt
1/8 tsp garlic powder

Melt the cheese in  a small sauce pan at medium/low heat.
Cut up onion, tomato and pepper.
Stir cheese and add the milk. Stir until the cheese is completely melted.
Add chili powder, onion salt and garlic and stir until mixed.
Add tomato, onion and pepper and stir.
Let sit on low heat for five mintes.
Then microwave for 30 seconds or until bubbles.
Serve on top of corn chips.
You may want to microwave it before you serve again, if it has cooled down.

Joke of the Week! "Scared to Death"

A man got a job as a taxi driver. On his first day of work he picked up a passenger and started to take him to his destination.
The passenger needed to ask the driver a question, so he leaned forward and tapped on his shoulder. As soon as he did the driver screamed and lost control of the car. After dodging a fire hydrant, running two red lights and a stop sign, almost hitting a dog and an old lady crossing the street, he came to a stop inches away from a garbage truck.
"Are you OK?" asked the passenger.
"I am just fine. You scared me when you tapped on my shoulder."
"How did that scare you?"
"Well, for the last 12 years I have been driving a hearse.
