ABSOLUTELY FRESH SEAFOOD MARKETS: Fresh from Hawaii --
Kajiki steaks (Blue Marlin) 11.99/lb
On the grill, or even made into Poke (I pronounce it POH-KEY) – we LOVE the Marlin from blue Hawaii. What is Poke, you ask? It is simple, as well as tasty. There are many recipes, just like your recipe for beef stew is different than mine, or even those of gumbo. In any case, here’s one that works for me: 1 lb Kajiki (or very fresh tuna), cut into ½ inch cubes1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds2 tablespoons sesame oil2 tablespoons soy sauce2 each green onions, chopped½ cup seaweed salad – guess what…..you can get this at Absolutely Fresh Seafood Markets!!!
Combine all ingredients, and enjoy. Very nice with a cold adult beverage, by the way.

If you ever testify in court, you might wish you could have been as sharp as this policeman. He was being cross-examined by a defense attorney during a felony trial. The lawyer was trying to undermine the police officer's credibility .... Q: 'Officer --- did you see my client fleeing the scene?' A: 'No sir. But I subsequently observed a person matching the description of the offender, running several blocks away.' Q: 'Officer -- who provided this description?' A: 'The officer who responded to the scene.' Q: 'A fellow officer provided the description of this so-called offender. Do you trust your fellow officers?' A: 'Yes, sir. With my life.' Q: 'With your life? Let me ask you this then officer. Do you have a room where you change your clothes in preparation for your daily duties?' A: 'Yes sir, we do!' Q: 'And do you have a locker in the room?' A: 'Yes, sir, .. I do.' Q: 'And do you have a lock on your locker?' A: 'Yes, sir.' Q: 'Now, ... why is it, officer, if you trust your fellow officers with your life, you find it necessary to lock your locker in a room you share with these same officers?' A: 'You see, sir -- we share the building with the court complex, and sometimes lawyers have been known to walk through that room.'
The courtroom EXPLODED with laughter, and a prompt recess was called. The officer on the stand has been nominated for this year's 'Best Comeback' line -- and we think he'll win.

Thanks, ladies and gentlemen, for the biz…… you are why we exist! After two years of my mantra being: “Good is the new great,” I am still eternally grateful to you for coming in day after day, week after week, keeping our small business going. And I’m very hopeful that the disaster in the Gulf is truly about over, and that Mother Nature will do what BP and the government cannot do; finally undo this mess. Rock and Roll!!! -- Greg
You deserve the BEST – Absolutely Fresh!

A Grandmother was surprised by her 7-year-old grandson one morning when he made her a cup of coffee. Even though it was the worst cup of coffee in her life, she drank it. When she got to the bottom there were three little green army men in the cup. She said, "Honey, what are these army men doing in my coffee?"
Her grandson said, "Grandma, it says on TV-'The best part of waking up is soldiers in your cup!'

An oldie-funny. A DAMN FINE EXPLANATION The wife came home early and found her husband in their bedroom making love to a very attractive young woman. And she was somewhat upset. 'You are a disrespectful pig!' she cried. 'How dare you do this to me -- a faithful wife, the mother of your children! I'm leaving you. I want a divorce immediately!' And the husband replied, 'Hang on just a minute Love so at least I can tell you what happened.' 'Fine, go ahead,' she sobbed,' but they'll be the last words you'll say to me!' And the husband began -- 'Well, I was getting into the car to drive home, and this young lady here asked me for a lift. She looked so down and out and defenseless that I took pity on her and let her into the car. I noticed that she was very thin, not well dressed and very dirty. She told me that she hadn't eaten for three days. So, in my compassion, I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas I made for you last night, the ones you wouldn't eat because you're afraid you'll put on weight. The poor thing devoured them in moments. Since she needed a good clean-up, I suggested a shower, and while she was doing that, I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of holes, so I threw them away. Then, as she needed clothes, I gave her the designer jeans that you have had for a few years, but don't wear because you say they are too tight. I also gave her the underwear that was your anniversary present, which you don't wear because I don't have good taste. I found the sexy blouse my sister gave you for Christmas that you don't wear just to annoy her, and I also donated those boots you bought at the expensive boutique and don't wear because someone at work has a pair the same.' The husband took a quick breath and continued - 'She was so grateful for my understanding and help that as I walked her to the door, she turned to me with tears in her eyes and said, 'Please ... Do you have anything else that your wife doesn't use?'

Stop by and RELAX……. -- --- - -- - [remember……these are JOKES!] Are you a Democrat, a Republican, or a Southerner? Here is a little test that will help you decide. The answer can be found by posing the following question: You're walking down a deserted street with your wife, and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, Locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife, and charges at you... You are carrying a Kimber 1911 cal. 45 ACP gun, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family! What do you do?
....................................................................
THINK AND READ CAREFULLY THEN SCROLL DOWN: Democrat's Answer: " Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! " Does the man look poor or oppressed? " Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack? " Could we run away? " What does my wife think? " What about the kids? " Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand? " What does the law say about this situation? " Does the pistol have appropriate safety built into it? " Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children? " Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me? " Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me? " If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me? " Should I call 9-1-1? " Why is this street so deserted? " We need to raise taxes, have paint & weed day. " Can we make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior ? " I need to debate this with some friends for a few days and try to come to a consensus. " This is all so confusing!

Republican's Answer: BANG! ............................................................................. Southerner's Answer: BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! Click..... (Sounds of reloading) BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG ! Click Daughter: 'Nice grouping, Daddy!' 'Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hollow Points?' Son: 'Can I shoot the next one?' Wife: 'You ain't taking that to the Taxidermist! - -- - - The Pharmacist's Monday Morning Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife. Tearfully she explained, "It's the druggist. He insulted me terribly this morning on the phone. I had to call multiple times before he would even answer the phone." Immediately, the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist and demand an apology. Before he could say more than a word or two, the druggist told him, "Now, just a minute, listen to my side of it. This morning the alarm Failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I went without breakfast and Hurried out to the car, just to realize that I'd locked the house with both House and car keys inside and had to break a window to get my keys. "Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket. Later, when I was about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire." "When I finally got to the store a bunch of people were waiting for me to open up. I got the store opened and started waiting on these people, all the time the darn phone was ringing off the hook." He continued, "Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash Register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I had to get down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels and the phone was still ringing. When I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume bottles on it. Half of them hit the floor and broke." "Meanwhile, the phone is still ringing with no let up, and I finally got Back to answer it. It was your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer . And believe me mister, as God is my witness, all I did was tell her."---------------------------------------------
