Just a little late, seasonally, but great!

The Night Before Christmas -- for General Aviators

Twas the night before Christmas, and out on the ramp,
Not an airplane was stirring, not even a Champ.
The aircraft were fastened to tiedowns with care,
In hopes that come morning, they all would be there.

The fuel trucks were nestled, all snug in their spots,
With gusts from two-forty at 39 knots.
I slumped at the fuel desk, now finally caught up,
And settled down comfortably, resting my butt.

When the radio lit up with noise and with chatter,
I turned up the scanner to see what was the matter.
A voice clearly heard over static and snow,
Called for clearance to land at the airport below.

He barked his transmission so lively and quick,
I'd have sworn that the call sign he used was "St. Nick".
I ran to the panel to turn up the lights,
The better to welcome this magical flight.

He called his position, no room for denial,
"St. Nicholas One, turnin' left onto final."
And what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a Rutan-built sleigh, with eight Rotax Reindeer!

With vectors to final, down the glideslope he came,
As he passed all the fixes, he called them by name:
"Now Ringo! Now Tolga! Now Trini and Bacun!
On Comet! On Cupid!" What pills was he takin'?

While controllers were sittin', and scratchin' their head,
They phoned to my office, and I heard it with dread,
The message they left was both urgent and dour:
"When Santa pulls in, have him please call the tower."

He landed like silk, with the sled runners sparking,
Then I heard "Left at Charlie," and "Taxi to parking."
He slowed to a taxi, turned off of three-oh
And stopped on the ramp with a "Ho, ho-ho-ho..."

He stepped out of the sleigh, but before he could talk,
I ran out to meet him with my best set of chocks.
His red helmet and goggles were covered with frost
And his beard was all blackened from Reindeer exhaust.

His breath smelled like peppermint, gone slightly stale,
And he puffed on a pipe, but he didn't inhale.
His cheeks were all rosy and jiggled like jelly,
His boots were as black as a cropduster's belly.

He was chubby and plump, in his suit of bright red,
And he asked me to "fill it, with hundred low-lead."
He came dashing in from the snow-covered pump,
I knew he was anxious for drainin' the sump.

I spoke not a word, but went straight to my work,
And I filled up the sleigh, but I spilled like a jerk.
He came out of the restroom, and sighed in relief,
Then he picked up a phone for a Flight Service brief.

And I thought as he silently scribed in his log,
These reindeer could land in an eighth-mile fog.
He completed his pre-flight, from the front to the rear,
Then he put on his headset, and I heard him yell, "Clear!"

And laying a finger on his push-to-talk,
He called up the tower for clearance and squawk.
"Take taxiway Charlie, the southbound direction,
Turn right three-two-zero at pilot's discretion"

He sped down the runway, the best of the best,
"Your traffic's a Grumman, inbound from the west."
Then I heard him proclaim, as he climbed thru the night,
"Merry Christmas to all! I have traffic in sight."

"Fireman Bob"

Fireman Bob rushed into a burning building
and rescued a beautiful young lady who was
clad only in the top half of her baby-doll
nightgown. He carried her in his arms down
three flights of stairs and saved her from
her sure demise.

As they arrived safely, a wash of gratitude
rushed over her. She looked at him with
great fondness and admiration, then said,
"Oh, you are wonderful! It must have taken
great strength and courage to rescue me
the way you did."

"Yes it did," the fireman admitted. "I had
to fight off three other firemen who were
trying to get to you first!"

================

"The Rescue"

A ladder was placed against the bedroom
window of a burning house, and a young
fireman rushed up. Inside was a curvy
brunette in a see-through nightie.

"Aha," said he, "You're the second pregnant
girl I've rescued this year!"

"But I'm not pregnant," indignantly exclaimed
the brunette.

"You're not rescued yet either."

No.

I am not sure I quite got the point; but I was tickled to death by the concept of a pound of elephants.

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.

Well, for example, the other day, my wife Pat and I went into town and visited a shop. When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. We went up to him and I said, 'Come on, man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?'

He ignored us and continued writing the ticket.

I called him a pimple-faced power-tripping arsehole. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn-out tyres. So Pat called him a small-minded little shit head. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windscreen with the first.

Then he started writing more tickets. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

Just then our bus arrived, and we got on it and went home. We try to have a little fun each day now that we're retired. It's important at our age.

True story:

We were on an art school trip to Berlin back in March 2011. In the bar at the Tacheles art-squat (now sadly closed) I was trying to take a group photo but the head of BA fine art didn't like having her photo taken so kept hiding behind the guy next to her, spoiling the once-in-a-lifetime shot.

Back at home I photoshopped an earlier photo of her into one of the artworks on the wall above where she had been sitting, printed half-a-dozen A3 size and put them up in various places around the fine art department (cruel, I know, but that's art students for you...).

Anyway, I'm putting one up in the big studio and one of the BA students asks, "Where's that?". "It's a bar in Berlin", says I. "What", says she, "and they've got a picture of Maggie on the wall?!!".

I really wish I'd said yes...

Senior Golf

Beverly is ninety years old. She's played golf every day since her retirement twenty-five years ago. One day she arrives home looking sad.

"That's it," she tells her husband, Gus. "I'm giving up golf. My eyesight has become so bad that once I hit the ball I can't see where it went."

Her husband makes her a cup of tea, and says, "Why don't you take me with you and give it one more try."

"That's no good" sighs Beverly. "You're a hundred and three. You can't help."

"I may be a hundred and three," says Gus, "but my eyesight is perfect."

So the next day Beverly heads off to the golf course with her Gus. She tees up, takes a mighty swing, and squints down the fairway.

She turns to the husband and says, "Did you see the ball?"

"Of course I did!" replied Gus, "I have perfect eyesight".

"Where did it go?" says Beverly.

"I don't remember."

"Wheelchair"

While I sat in the reception area of my doctor's
office, a woman rolled an elderly man in a
wheelchair into the room. As she went to the
receptionist's desk, the man sat there, alone
and silent.

Just as I was thinking I should make small talk
with him, a little boy slipped off his mother's
lap and walked over to the wheelchair.

Placing his hand on the man's, he said, "I know

Lipstick in Catholic School

According to a news report, a certain private Catholic school was recently faced with a unique problem.

A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom.

That was fine provided it was of a natural or neutral skin tone, but after they put on their lipstick, they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints.

Every night the maintenance man would remove them; and the next day the girls would put them back.

Finally, the principal, Sister Mary, decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian, who had to clean the mirrors every night (you can just imagine the yawns from the little princesses).

To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, Sister Mary asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required.

He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it.

Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.


There are teachers ... and then there are educators!

"It Could Have Been Worse..."

There once was a sheriff who, no matter what the situation,
always said, "It could have been worse" after viewing the
scene of the crime. It drove his two deputies absolutely crazy.

One day, the two deputies in the Sheriff's Office answered
an emergency call at a farmhouse. When they walked in,
they found the nude bodies of a man and a woman in the
bedroom. They both had been shot to death. When the
deputies went to the living room, they found the body of a
man with a gun at his side.

"No doubt about it," one deputy said to the other. "This was
a double murder and suicide. This guy came home and
found his wife in bed with somebody else and shot them
both. Then he shot himself."

"You're right," the other deputy replied. "Double murder and
suicide. But I'll bet you when the sheriff gets here, he's
going to say 'It could have been worse' as he always does!"

"No way. How could it be worse? There are three people
in the house, and all of them have been shot to death. It
couldn't be worse. You're on." said the first deputy.

About that time, the old sheriff arrived at the scene. He
walked into the bedroom and saw the two nude bodies.
He then walked into the living room and saw the man on
the floor with the gun by his side. "No doubt about it," the
sheriff said, shaking his head. "It was a double murder
and suicide. This guy came home and found his wife in
bed with somebody else and shot them both. Then he
shot himself."

After hesitating for a moment, the old sheriff looked his
deputies squarely in the eyes. "But, you know," he said, "it
could have been worse."      

The deputy who had lost the bet jumped up and shouted,
"Sheriff, how could it have been worse? There are three
people in this farmhouse, and all three of them are dead.
It couldn't have been worse!!"

"Yes it could," the sheriff retorted. "You see that guy there
on the floor? If he had come home yesterday, that would
be me in there in that bed!"

PROPOSED CUTS TO CANADA'S HEALTH SERVICE.

The Canadian Medical Association has weighed in on the Prime Minister's health care proposals.

The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

The Gastroenterologists had a sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.

The Obstetricians felt they were all labouring under a misconception.

Ophthalmologists considered the idea short-sight .

Pathologists yelled "Over my dead body!", while the Paediatricians said, "Oh, Grow up!"

The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.

The Surgeons were fed up with the cuts and decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.

The ENT specialists didn't swallow it, and just wouldn't hear of it.

The Pharmacologists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter...."

The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.

The Anaesthetists thought the whole idea was a gas, but the Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.

In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the assholes in Ottawa.

OK, these might be better in a limericks thread, but they made me laugh out loud, and the first one is actually a TRIPLE pun.

Title: Ask No Quarter
A fellow there was, name of Porter
Whose wife was blown up by a mortar.
His nephews and nieces
Helped pick up the pieces
So he gave each small helper a quarter.

A lady from Budapest, Florrie
Went out in a small boat with Cory.
When he got in her drawers
As she pulled on the oars
He said it was all hunky-dory.

This one I also liked, but it isn't punny:

A condom designer named Newsome
Invented one really quite gruesome.
It was strangely confused
For 'twas meant to be used
By three people instead of a twosome.

"Bird Study"

There is a new very important government study
on just how intelligent crows are.

The State of California found about 200 dead
crows on its highways, and there was concern
that they may have died from avian flu. They
had a bird pathologist examine the remains of
all the crows, and he confirmed the problem
was definitely NOT avian flu, to everyone's relief.

However, he determined that 98% of the crows
had been killed by impact with trucks, and only
2% were killed by car impact.

The State of California then hired an ornithological
behaviorist to determine the disproportionate
percentages for truck versus car kill. The
ornithological behaviorist determined the cause
in short order.

When crows eat road kill, they always set up a
lookout crow in a nearby tree to warn of
impending danger. His conclusion was that the
lookout crow could say "Cah! Cah!" but he could not
say "Truck."

A Woman's Life~
After 37 years of marriage. Jake dumped his wife for his Young secretary.

His new girlfriend demanded that they live in Jake and Edith's multi-million dollar home and since the man's lawyers were a little better he prevailed.

He gave Edith his now ex-wife just 3 days to move out. She spent the 1st day packing her belongings into boxes crates and suitcases.
...
On the 2nd day she had to movers come and collect her things.

On the 3rd day she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining room table by candlelight put on some soft background music and feasted on a pound of shrimp a jar of caviar and a bottle of Chardonnay.

When she had finished she went into each and every room and stuffed half-eaten shrimp shells dipped in caviar into the hollow of all of the curtain rods. She then cleaned up the kitchen and left.

When the husband returned with his new girlfriend all was bliss for the first few days.

Then slowly the house began to smell. They tried everything cleaning mopping and airing the place out. Vents were checked for dead rodents and carpets were cleaned. Air fresheners were hung everywhere.
Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters during which they had to move out for a few days and in the end they even replaced the expensive wool carpeting. NOTHING WORKED.

People stopped coming over to visit. Repairman refused to work in the house.

The Maid quit.

Finally they could not take the stench any longer and decided to move.

A month later even through they had cut their price in half they could not find a buyer for their stinky house.

Word got out and eventually even the local realtors refused to return their calls. Finally they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place.

The ex-wife called the man and asked how things were going. He told her the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely and said that she missed her old home terribly and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange for getting the house back.

Knowing his ex-wife had no idea how bad the smell was he agreed on a price that was about 1/10th of what the house ha been worth, but only if she were to sign the papers that very day. She agreed and within the hour his lawyers delivered the paperwork.

A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home.

Hopping mad he opens the window, picks up the fridge and throws it out. Splat! A great shot flattens the bloke, but the effort of running up all those stairs and then heaving the fridge out gives him a heart attack and he dies.

Due to increasing product liability litigation, American liquor manufacturers have accepted the FDA's suggestion to add more warning labels to their products. Just as the warnings on cigarette packs "rotate" through a variety of cautions, alcohol products will also get one of the following warning notices:



WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may leave you wondering what the hell happened to your bra and panties.

WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may make you think you are whispering when you are not.

WARNING: The consumption of alcohol is a major factor in dancing like an obliviot.

WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may cause you to think you can sing.

WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may lead you to believe that ex-lovers are really dying for you to telephone them at four in the morning.

WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may make you think you can logically converse with members of the opposite sex without spitting.

WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may lead you to think people are laughing with you.

A New Marine's First Letter Home

Dear Ma and Pa,

I am well. Hope you are too.

The Marine Corps beats working for old man Minch by a mile. I was restless at first because you got to stay in bed till nearly 5:00 a.m., but am getting so I like to sleep late.

Tell brother Walt and brother Elmer that all you do in the Marines before breakfast is smooth your cot and shine some things. No hogs to slop, feed to pitch, mash to mix, wood to split, fire to lay. Practically nothing. Men got to shave but it is not so bad -- there's warm water.

A Marine Corps breakfast is strong on trimmings like fruit juice, cereal, eggs, bacon, etc., but kind of weak on chops, potatoes, ham, steak, fried eggplant, pie and other regular food. But tell Walt and Elmer you can always sit between two city boys that live on coffee. Their food plus yours holds you till noon, when you get fed again. It's no wonder these city boys can't walk much.

As Marines we're expected to go on "route" marches, which the Platoon Sergeant says are long walks to harden us. If he thinks so, it is not my place to tell him different. A "route march" is about as far as to our mailbox at home. Then the city guys get sore feet and we all ride back in trucks. The country is nice, but awful flat. The Sergeant is like a schoolteacher. He nags some.

The Captain is like the school board. Majors and Colonels just ride around and frown. They don't bother you none.

This next will kill Walt and Elmer with laughing. I keep getting medals for shooting. I don't know why. The bullseye is near as big as a chipmunk head and don't move. And it ain't shooting at you, like the Higgett boys at home. All you got to do is lie there all comfortable and hit it. You don't even load your own cartridges. They come in boxes.

Then we have what they call hand-to-hand combat training. You get to wrestle with them city boys. I have to be real careful though, they break real easy. It ain't like fighting with that ole bull at home. I'm about the best they got in this except for that Tug Jordan from over in Silver Lake. He joined up the same time as me. But I'm only 5'6" and 130 pounds and he's 6'8" and weighs near 300 pounds dry.

Be sure to tell Walt and Elmer to hurry and join before other fellers get onto this setup and come stampeding in.

Your loving daughter,

Tammy Gail

Health Hazard

With "gun control" in the news so much these days, this one's starting to go around again. It should certainly make you think....

The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000. Yes, that is eighty million. The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500. The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is 0.0000188.

The number of physicians in the U.S. is approximately 700,000. The number of accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year is approximately 120,000. The number of accidental deaths per physician is 0.1714286.

Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners. Remember, "Guns don't kill people, doctors do."

Fact: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand. Out of concern for the public at large, I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.

Lawyers should never ask a Georgia grandma a question if they aren't
prepared for the answer.
In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first
witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her
and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know me?' She responded, 'Why, yes, I do
know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were a boy, and frankly,
you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife,
and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You
think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you'll never
amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you.'
The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across
the room and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?'
She again replied, 'Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a
youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't
build a normal relationship with anyone, and his law practice is one of the
worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three
different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him.'
The defense attorney nearly died.
The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very
quiet voice, said,
'If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the
electric chair.

Where do the characters go when I use my backspace or delete them on my PC?

ANSWER: The characters go to different places, depending on whom you ask:

The Buddhist explanation: If a character has lived rightly, and its karma is good, then after it has been deleted it will be reincarnated as a different, higher character. Those funny characters above the numbers on your keyboard will become numbers, numbers will become letters, and lower-case letters will become upper-case.

The 20th-century bitter cynical nihilist explanation: Who cares? It doesn't really matter if they're on the page, deleted, undeleted, underlined, etc. It's all the same.

The Mac user's explanation: All the characters written on a PC and then deleted go to straight to PC hell. If you're using a PC, you can probably see the deleted characters, because you're in PC hell also.

Stephen King's explanation: Every time you hit the (Del) key you unleash a tiny monster inside the cursor, who tears the poor, unsuspecting characters to shreds, drinks their blood, then eats them, bones and all. Hah, hah, hah!

The Christian Church's approach to characters: The nice characters go to Heaven, where they are bathed in the light of happiness. The naughty characters are punished for their sins. Naughty characters are those involved in the creation of naughty words, such as "breast," "sex," and contraception."

Dave Barry's explanation: The deleted characters are shipped to Battle Creek, Michigan, where they're made into Pop-Tart filling; this explains why Pop-Tarts are so flammable, while cheap imitations are not flammable. I'm not making this up.

IBM's explanation: The characters are not real. They exist only on the screen when they are needed, as concepts, so to delete them is merely to de-conceptualize them. Get a life.

PETA's (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) explanation: You've been DELETING them??? Can't you hear them SCREAMING??? Why don't you go CLUB some BABY SEALS while wearing a MINK, you pig!!!!

Tips for a Happy Marriage

1. Two times a week, we go to a nice restaurant, have a little beverage, then comes good food and companionship. She goes on Tuesdays, I go on Fridays.

2. We also sleep in separate beds. Hers is in Ontario and mine is in Tucson.

3. I take my wife everywhere, but she keeps finding her way back.

4. I asked my wife where she wanted to go for our anniversary. "Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!" she said. So I suggested the kitchen.

5. We always hold hands. If I let go, she shops.

6. She has an electric blender, electric toaster and electric bread maker. Then she said "There are too many gadgets and no place to sit down!" So I bought her an electric chair.

7. My wife told me the car wasn't running well because there was water in the carburetor. I asked where the car was, she told me "In the Lake."

8. She got a mudpack and looked great for two days. Then the mud fell off.

9. She ran after the garbage truck, yelling "Am I too late for the garbage?" The driver said "No, jump in!"

10. Remember. Marriage is the number one cause of divorce.

"English Bagel"

"Hello Mrs. Miller," said the bearded guy
behind the counter at the bagel shop.

My husband and I looked at him but drew
complete blanks. "I'm sorry, do we know
each other?" I asked.

"Yeah, you was my English teacher."

Leaning over, my husband whispered,
"Good job, Honey, good job."


"Gud Speling"

Everyone knows I'm a stickler for good

an f. In case you've forgotten, spell checker
comes free with your software."

A minute later, I got this reply, "Mine must be
dephective."

"Dormitory Rules"

On the first day of college, the Dean addressed
the students, pointing out some of the rules.

"The female dormitory will be out-of-bounds for
all male students, so too the male dormitory to
the female students. Anybody caught breaking
this rule will be fined $50 the first time. Anybody
caught breaking this rule the second time will be
fined $150. Being caught a third time will incur
a hefty fine of $350.

"Are there any questions?"

At this, a male student in the crowd inquired, "Err...
How much for a season pass?"

"The Stork's Function"

Two storks were sitting in their nest: a father stork and baby
stork. Baby stork was crying and crying, and father stork was
trying to calm him, "Don't worry, son. Your mother will
come back. She's only bringing people babies and making
them happy."

The next night, it was father's turn to do the job. Mother and
son were sitting in the nest, son was crying, and mother said,
"Son, your father will be back as soon as possible, but now
he's bringing joy to new mommies and daddies."

A few days later, the stork parents were desperate. Their son
had been absent from the nest all night! Shortly before dawn, he
returned, and the parents asked him where he'd been all night.
Said the baby stork, "Nowhere in particular. Just scaring
the hell out of college students!"

"Heavenly Mother"
{DO take it with a grain of salt, please!!}

A very devout nun dies and goes to heaven. Upon
arrival, she is greeted with ceremony and honor and
told she may immediately have any wish she
chooses while her place is prepared for her.

She humbly and politely replies that she would like
an audience with Holy Mary, if this is possible. Peter
agrees on the spot and escorts her personally to a
little door, hitherto unnoticed in the great vault of the
firmament. He knocks softly. There's a murmured
reply from within, and he opens the door and indicates
to his guest to enter.

Within, sitting in a plain chair is a middle-aged Jewish
woman in the garb of the first century knitting.

The nun sits reverently for some time at Mary's feet
and finally gestures so as to ask a question. Mary looks
up from her knitting and indicates it is OK to ask.

"Reverend Mother, please tell me, you were chosen
from all women to be the mother of God.   You are a
simple Jewish woman, I know.  But if you could, just
give me an inkling of what it felt like when it happened
when Jesus was born?"

With a distant look in her eyes, Mary replies,
"Vell, Ich vaist a Maydel...."  ***

The Golf Nut

Ed and Nancy met while on a singles cruise and Ed fell head over heels for her. When they discovered they lived in the same city only a few miles apart Ed was ecstatic. He immediately started asking her out when they got home.

Within a couple of weeks, Ed had taken Nancy to dance clubs, restaurants, concerts, movies, and museums. Ed became convinced that Nancy was indeed his soul mate and true love. Every date seemed better than the last.

On the one-month anniversary of their first dinner on the cruise ship, Ed took Nancy to a fine restaurant. While having cocktails and waiting for their salad, Ed said, "I guess you can tell I'm very much in love with you. I'd like a little serious talk before our relationship continues to the next stage.

"So, before I get a box out of my jacket pocket and ask you a life- changing question, it's only fair to warn you: I'm a total golf nut. I play golf, I read about golf, I watch golf on TV. In short, I eat, sleep, and breathe golf. If that's going to be a problem for us, you'd better say so now!"

Nancy took a deep breath and responded, "Ed, that certainly won't be a problem. I love you as you are and I love golf too. But, since we're being totally honest with each other, you need to know that for the last five years I've been a hooker."

"Oh wow! I see," Ed replied. "Uhh.. Well..."

He looked down at the table, was quiet for a moment. Deep in serious thought then he added, "You know, it's probably because you're not keeping your wrists straight when you hit the ball...."

Then they walk around the ranch a little, and the Aussie shows off his herd of cattle. The Texan immediately says, " We have longhorns that are at least twice as large as your cows".

The conversation has, meanwhile, almost died when the Texan sees a herd of kangaroos hopping through the field. He asked, "And what are those"?

THE GUNFIGHTER

A young cowboy sitting in a saloon one Saturday night recognized an elderly man standing at the bar who, in his day, had been the fastest gun in the West.

The cowboy took a place next to the old-timer, bought him a drink and told him of his great ambition to be a great shot...

'Could you give me some tips?' he asked.

The old man said, 'Well, for one thing, you're wearing your gun too high – tie the holster a little lower down on your leg.'

'Will that make me a better gunfighter?'

'Sure will '

The young man did as he was told, stood up, whipped out his .44 and shot the bow tie off the piano player.

'That's terrific!' said the cowboy. 'Got any more tips?'

'Yep,' said the old man. 'Cut a notch out of your holster where the hammer hits it - that'll give you a smoother draw'

'Will that make me a better gunfighter?' asked the young man.

'You bet it will,' said the old-timer.

The young man took out his knife, cut the notch, stood up, drew his gun in a blur, and then shot a cufflink off the piano player.

'Wow!' exclaimed the cowboy 'I'm learnin' somethin' here. Got any more tips?'

The old man pointed to a large can in a corner of the saloon. 'See that axle grease over there? Coat your gun with it.'

The young man smeared some of the grease on the barrel of his gun.

'No,' said the old-timer, 'I mean smear it all over the gun, handle and all.'

'Will that make me a better gunfighter?' asked the young man.

'No,' said the old-timer, 'but when Wyatt Earp gets done playing the piano, he's gonna shove that gun right up your arse, and it won't hurt as much.

"Changing Diapers"

During a long trip, my wife and I stopped at a
gas station to, amongst other things, change
our son's diaper. Being a considerate husband,
I carried my son back to the men's room to
take care of it, rather than letting my wife do it.

I noted the baby changing station sign on the
ladies' room door, but lack of one on the men's
room door. Sure enough, upon entering the
men's room, I saw the only available wall space
was taken up by a condom machine.

While taking my son back to give to my wife,
I thought of the message the condom
manufacturers might be trying to get across:
"If you'd used our product, you wouldn't need
a baby changing station in the men's' room."

"Ham Sandwich"

As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection. A thick
slab of ham, a fresh bun, crisp lettuce and plenty
of expensive, light brown, gourmet mustard. The
corners of my jaw aching in anticipation, I carried it
to the picnic table in our backyard, picked it up with
both hands but was stopped by my wife suddenly
at my side. "Hold Johnny (our six-week-old son)
while I get my sandwich," she said.

I had him balanced between my left elbow and
shoulder and was reaching again for the ham
sandwich when I noticed a streak of mustard on
my fingers.

I love mustard.

I had no napkin.

I licked it off.

It was not mustard.

No man ever put a baby down faster.

It was the first and only time I have sprinted with
my tongue protruding. With a washcloth in each
hand I did the sort of routine shoeshine boys do,
only I did it on my tongue. Later my wife said,

"Now you know why they call that mustard 'Poupon.'"

A group of 3rd, 4th, & 5th graders, accompanied by two female teachers, went on a field trip to the local racetrack, (Churchill Downs) to learn about thoroughbred horses and the supporting industry (Bourbon), but mostly to see the horses.

When it was time to take the children to the bathroom, it was decided that the girls would go with one teacher and the boys would go with the other. The teacher assigned to the boys was waiting outside the men's room when one of the boys came out and told her that none of them could reach the urinal.

Having no choice, she went inside, helped the boys with their pants, and began hoisting the little boys up one by one, holding on to their 'wee-wees' to direct the flow away from their clothes.

As she lifted one, she couldn't help but notice that he was unusually well endowed. Trying not to show that she was staring, the teacher said, 'You must be in the 5th grade.'

"Woooooo! Woooooo!"

There were two Indians and a white fellow walking
along together in the desert, when, all of a sudden,
one of the Indians took off and ran up this hill to the
mouth of a cave. He stopped and hollered into the
cave..."Woooooo! Woooooo! Woooooo!" and then
listened very closely until he heard the answer...
"Woooooo! Woooooo! Woooooo!" He then tore
off his clothes and ran in to the cave.

The white fellow was puzzled and asked the other
Indian what that was all about, was that Indian goofy
or something?

"No," said the other Indian. "It is mating time for us
Indians, and when you see a cave and holler "Woooooo!
Woooooo! Woooooo!" and get an answer back, that means
that she is in there waiting for you."

Well, just about that time, the other Indian saw
another cave. He took off and ran up to the cave,
then stopped and hollered, "Woooooo! Woooooo!
Woooooo!" When he heard the return, "Woooooo!
Woooooo! Woooooo!" off came the clothes and
into the cave he rushed.

The white guy (a blond?) started running around
the desert looking for a cave to find these women
that the Indians had talked about. All of a sudden,
he looked up and saw this great big cave. As he
looked in amazement, he was thinking, "Man! Look
at the size of that cave! It's bigger than the ones
that those Indians found. There must really be
something really great in this cave!"

Well, he took off up the hill at a super-fast speed
with his hopes of ecstasy and grandeur. He got in
front of the cave and hollered, "Woooooo! Woooooo!
Woooooo!" He was just tickled all over when he heard
the answering call of, "WOOOOOOOOO! WOOOOOOOOO!!
WOOOOOOOOO!!! Off came his clothes and, with a big
smile on his face, he raced into the cave.

The next day the newspaper headlines read, "NAKED

My Medical Checkup

I recently picked a new primary care physician. After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, he said I was doing "fairly well" for my age.

A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, "Do you think I'll live to be 90?"

He asked, "Well, do you smoke tobacco or drink beer?"

"Oh no," I replied, "I've never done either."

Then he asked, "Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbequed ribs?

I said, "No, I've heard that all 'red meat' is very unhealthful!"

"Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf?" he asked.

"No, I don't," I said.

He said, "Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or fool around with sexy people?"

"No," I said, "I don't do any of those things."

He looked at me and said, "Then why in hell do you want to live to be 90?"

The Best Pub in the World

A Scotsman, an Englishman and a Newfoundlander were sitting in a bar in Toronto. The view was fantastic, the beer excellent, the food exceptional.

"As good as this is," said the Scotsman, "I still prefer the pubs back home. In Glasgow, there's a wee place called McTavish's. The landlord goes out of his way for the locals. When you buy four drinks, he will buy the fifth drink for you."

"Well, Angus," said the Englishman, "At my local in London, the Red Lion, the barman will buy you your third drink after you buy the first two."

"Ahhh, that's nothin'," said the Newfie. "Back home in Sin Jahn's there's the Codfish Bar. The moment you set foot in the place, they'll buy you a drink, then another, all the drinks you like, actually. Then, when you've had enough drinks, they'll take you upstairs and see that you get laid. All on the house!"

The Englishman and Scotsman immediately shout down the Newfie's claims, but he swears every word is true.

"Well," said the Englishman, still suspicious. "Did this actually happen to you?"

"Not me myself, personally, no," admitted the Newf. "But it did happen to me sister quite a few times."

At Penn State University, there were four sophomores taking chemistry and all of them had an 'A' so far. These four friends were so confident that the weekend before finals, they decided to visit some friends and have a big party. They had a great time but, after all the hearty partying, they slept all day Sunday and didn't make it back to Penn State until early Monday morning. Rather than taking the final then, they decided that after the final they would explain to their professor why they missed it. They said that they visited friends but on the way back they had a flat tire. As a result, they missed the final. The professor agreed they could make up the final the next day. The guys were excited and relieved. They studied that night for the exam.The next day the Professor placed them in separate rooms and gave them a test booklet. They quickly answered the first problem worth 5 points.Cool, they thought! Each one in separate rooms, thought this was going to be easy ... then they turned the page. On the second page was written... For 95 points:    Which tire?

A very successful attorney parked his brand new Lexus in front of his office, ready to show it off to his colleagues.

As he was getting out, a truck came along too close and completely tore off the driver's door. A cop in a police car was close enough to see the accident and pulled up behind the Lexus with his lights flashing.

Before the cop had a chance to speak, the attorney started screaming hysterically about how his Lexus, which he had just purchased the day before, was completely ruined and would never be the same, no matter how any auto body shop tried to make it new again.

After the lawyer finally wound down from his rant, the cop shook his head in disbelief. "I can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so focused on your possessions that you neglect the most important things in life."

"How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.

The cop replied, "You don't even realize that your left arm is missing? It was severed when the truck hit you!"

"Strange Collar"

An old Jewish man was once on the subway, and he sat
down next to a younger man. He noticed that the young
man had a strange kind of shirt collar. Having never
seen a priest before, he asked the man,

"Excuse me sir, but why do you have your shirt collar on
backwards?"

The priest became a bit flustered but politely answered,
"I wear this collar because I am a Father."

The Jewish man thought a second and responded, "Sir,
I am also a father but I wear my collar front-ways. Why
do you wear your collar so differently?"

The priest thought for a minute and said, "Sir, I am the
Father for many."

The Jewish man quickly answered, "I too am the father
of many. I have four sons, four daughters and too many
grandchildren to count. But I wear my collar like
everyone else does. Why do you wear it your way?"

The priest who was beginning to get exasperated
thought and then blurted out, "Sir, I am the Father for
hundreds and hundreds of people."

The Jewish man was taken aback, and was silent for a
long time. As he got up to leave the subway train, he
leaned over to the priest and said,

"Err . . .   Mister, perhaps, you should wear your pants
backwards."

"This Bull Reproduced..."

This couple went to an agricultural show way out in the
countryside a fine Sunday afternoon, and were watching the
auctioning off of bulls.

The guy selling the bulls announced the first bull to be
auctioned off: "A fine specimen, this bull reproduced
sixty times last year."

The wife nudged her husband in the ribs, and commented,
"See! That was more than five times a month!"

The second bull was now to be sold: "Another fine specimen.
This wonder reproduced a hundred twenty times last year."

Again the wife bugged her husband: "Hey, that's some
ten times a month. What do YOU say to that?!"

Her husband was getting really annoyed with this
comparison.

The third bull was up for sale: "And this extraordinary
specimen reproduced three hundred sixty-five
times last year!"

The wife slapped her husband on the arm and yelled,
"That's once a day, every day of the year! How about
YOU?!"

The husband was pretty irritated by now, and yelled back,
"Sure, once a day!....... But ask the auctioneer if
they were all with the same cow!!!"

banker suggested that a veterinarian have a look at the bull.

The next week the banker returned to see if the vet helped.
The farmer looked very pleased: "The bull has serviced all
my cows, broke through the fence, and has serviced all my
neighbor's cows!"

"Wow," said the banker, "What did the vet do to that bull?"

"Just gave him some pills," replied the farmer.

"What kind of pills?" asked the banker.

"I don't know," said the farmer, "but they sort of taste
like chocolate."

"The Emotional Male"

One night a wife found her husband standing over their
newborn baby's crib. Silently she watched him. As he
stood looking down at the sleeping infant, she saw on
his face a mixture of emotions: disbelief, doubt, delight,
amazement, enchantment, skepticism.

Touched by this unusual display and the deep emotions
it aroused, with eyes glistening she slipped her arms
around her husband.

"A penny for your thoughts," she whispered in his ear.

"It's amazing!" he replied. "I just can't see how anybody

"The Evolution Of Mom"

Yes, parenthood changes everything. But parenthood
also changes with each baby. Here, some of the ways
having a second and third child differs from having your
first:

Your Clothes
-1st baby: You begin wearing maternity clothes as soon
as your OB/GYN confirms your pregnancy.

-2nd baby: You wear your regular clothes for as long as
possible.

-3rd baby: Your maternity clothes ARE your regular
clothes.

The Baby's Name
-1st baby: You pore over baby-name books and practice
pronouncing and writing combinations of all your favorites.

-2nd baby: Someone has to name his or her kid after your
great-aunt Mavis, right? It might as well be you.

-3rd baby: You open a name book, close your eyes, and
see where your finger points.

Preparing for the Birth
-1st baby: You practice your breathing religiously.

-2nd baby: You don't bother practicing because you
remember that last time, breathing didn't do a thing.

-3rd baby: You ask for an epidural in your 8th month.

The Layette
-1st baby: You pre-wash your newborn's clothes, color-
coordinate them, and fold them neatly in the baby's
little bureau.

-2nd baby: You check to make sure that the clothes are
clean and discard only the ones with the darkest stains.

-3rd baby: Boys can wear pink, can't they?

Worries
-1st baby: At the first sign of distress--a whimper, a
frown--you pick up the baby.

-2nd baby: You pick the baby up when her wails threaten
to wake your firstborn.

-3rd baby: You teach your 3-year-old how to rewind the
mechanical swing.

Activities
-1st baby: You take your infant to Baby Gymnastics,
Baby Swing, and Baby Story Hour.

-2nd baby: You take your infant to Baby Gymnastics.

-3rd baby: You take your infant to the supermarket and
the dry cleaner.

Going Out
-1st baby: The first time you leave your baby with a sitter,
you call home 5 times.

-2nd baby: Just before you walk out the door, you
remember to leave a number where you can be reached.

-3rd baby: You leave instructions for the sitter to call only
if she sees blood.

At Home
-1st baby: You spend a good bit of every day just gazing at
the baby.

-2nd baby: You spend a bit of every day watching to be sure
your older child isn't squeezing, poking, or hitting the baby.

-3rd baby: You spend a little bit of every day hiding from the
children.

In a world where every prayer, every need want and desire of extreme conservative America has come to life, one man made it his life's mission to show you who when where and why such a heavenly hell erupted from the backed up bowels of the Earth.

Coming soon, Donuel's mega cartoon: 'If their prayers were answered' is in such detail it includes the complete new constitution, US map and ball dropping text revealing the "Merica" they always thought they wanted.

The New York Times Gazette critics report; 'If their Prayers' is in such detail you can walk into this parallel universe and smell the wind blow ultimate conservatism over the mountains of wealth, through the bunkers of corporatism and over the stench of cadaver filled cesspools of pure philosophically ideal conservative strength.

Without a doubt "If Their Prayers Were Answered" is defundamentally the best cartoon the world has ever seen, will ever see and is even now becoming our reality more and more every day.

COMING Halloween day 2013. For Real.









This Donuel cartoon is not yet rated. Any resemblance to any person living or dead or living dead is not coincidental and is responsible for the physical and psychological changes that this cartoon will cause when combined with hypnosis drugs and alcohol.

Off the chicken ran, back to the farm. Arriving at the farm, he searched and searched for the farmer, but to no avail, for he had gone to town with the only tractor.

Running around, the chicken spied the farmer's new Harley motorcycle. Finding the keys in the ignition, the chicken sped off with a length of rope hoping he still had time to save his friend's life. Back at the bog, the horse was surprised, but happy, to see the chicken arrive on the shiny Harley, and he managed to get a hold of the loop of rope the chicken tossed to him. The chicken then drove slowly forward and, with the aid of the powerful bike, rescued the horse. Happy and proud, the chicken rode the Harley back to the farmhouse and the farmer was none the wiser when he returned.

The friendship between the two animals was cemented: Best buddies, best pals.

A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit, and soon he too began to sink. He cried out to the horse to save his life! The horse thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large puddle. Looking down underneath he told the chicken to grab his junk and he would lift him out of the pit. The chicken got a good grip and the horse pulled him up and out, saving his life.

The moral of the story (and you know there is one!)?
When you're hung like a horse you don't need a Harley to pick up chicks.

Then the interviewer calls in the accountant and asks the same question "What do two plus two equal?" The accountant says "On average, four - give or take ten percent, but on average, four."
Then the interviewer calls in the economist and poses the same question "What do two plus two equal?" The economist gets up, locks the door, closes the shade, sits down next to the interviewer and says, "What do you want it to equal"?

with the crate of chickens his father had entrusted
to him, when all of a sudden the box fell and broke

Girls Night Out

Last night, my friends and I went to a Ladies Night Club. One of the girls wanted to impress the rest of us, so she pulled out a $10 bill. When the male dancer came over to us, my friend licked the $10 bill and stuck it to his butt cheek!

Not to be outdone, another friend pulls out a $20 bill. She called the guy back, licks the $20 bill, and sticks it to his other butt cheek.

In another attempt to impress the rest of us, my third friend pulls out a $50 bill and calls the guy over, and licks the $50 bill. I'm worried about the way things are going, but fortunately, she just stuck it to one of his butt cheeks again.

My relief was short-lived.

Seeing the way things are going, the guy races over to me! Now everyone's attention is focused on me, and the guy is egging me on to try to top the $50.

My brain was churning as I reached for my wallet. What could I do?

I got out my ATM card, swiped it down the crack of his butt, grabbed the eighty bucks, and left.

The Soldier kicked off his shoes, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Marine in the window seat said, "I think I'll get up and get a coke." "No problem," said the Soldier, "I'll get it for you." While he was gone, the Marine picked up the Soldier's shoe and spit in it. When the Soldier returned with the coke, the Marine in the middle seat said, "That looks good, I think I'll have one too." Again, the Soldier obligingly went to fetch it and while he was gone, the Marine picked up the soldier's other shoe and spit in it. The Soldier returned and they all sat back and enjoyed the rest of the short flight to Houston.

Bobert's Chili Contest and slab pouring event:


They actually have a Chili Cook Off about the time Halloween comes around.
It takes up a major portion of a Bobert's proposed concrete slab.

Judge #3 was an inexperienced Chili Taster named Frank, who was visiting from Springfield, IL

Frank: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili
cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I
happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted."

Here are the scorecard notes from the event:

*****************************************************
CHILI # 1 - MIKE'S MANIAC MONSTER CHILI...

Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.

Judge # 2 - Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.

Judge # 3 (Frank) -- Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.
*****************************************************
CHILI # 2 - AUSTIN'S AFTERBURNER CHILI..

Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.

Judge #2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken
seriously.

Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.
*****************************************************
CHILI # 3 - FRED'S BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI...

Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick.

Judge # 2 -- A bit salty, good use of peppers.

Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting drunk from all of the beer.
*****************************************************
CHILI # 4 - BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC...

Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.

Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods not much of a chili.

Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it.

Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beermaid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-LB woman is starting to look HOT, just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac?
*****************************************************
CHILI # 5 LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER...

Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.

Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.

Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes.

I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage.
Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off.
It really ticks me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming.
*****************************************************
CHILI # 6 - VERA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY...

Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of
spices and peppers.

Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic.
Superb!

Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I pooped on myself when I farted and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems incline d to stand behind me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my rear-end with a snow cone.
*****************************************************
CHILI # 7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI...

Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.

Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge # 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.

Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I
wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful. I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach.
*****************************************************
CHILI # 8 - BIG TOM'S TOENAIL CURLING CHILI...

Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.

Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3 farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor feller, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chili?

Judge # 3 - No Report

Regards,

GfS

BLIND CASHIER AT FISHERMAN'S SUPPLY STORE



A woman went to buy a rod and reel for her grandson's birthday. She didn't know which one to get, so she just grabbed one and went over to the counter. The clerk was standing behind the counter wearing dark glasses. She said to him, "Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this Rod and reel?"

He said, "Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on the counter, I can tell you everything from the sound it makes."

She didn't believe him, but dropped it on the counter anyway.

He said, "That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel and 10-lb test line. It's a good all-around combination, and it's on sale this week for only $20.00."

She said, "It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it dropping on the counter. I'll take it!"

As she opened her purse, her credit card dropped on the floor. "Oh, that sounds like a Master Card," he said.

She bent down to pick it up and accidentally farted. At first she was really embarrassed, but then realized there was no way the blind clerk could tell it was her who tooted. Being blind, he wouldn't know that she was the only person around?

The man rang up the sale and said, "That'll be $34.50 please."

The woman was totally confused by this and asked, "Didn't you tell me the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?"

He replied, "Yes, ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is $11.00, and the Catfish Bait is $3.50."

She paid it and left without saying a word.

The Santa Claus sat down at the department

Sitting next to him was a seven year old boy.

"Do you believe in Santa Claus?" asked the weary

"No. Santa's for babies!"

"Good for you," replied Santa as he removed his
beard and proceeded to sip his coffee.

A man is trapped on a desert island with a sheep and a dog. After a few months, the sheep starts looking really attractive to the man. However, whenever he approaches the sheep the dog begins to growl in a threatening manner. The man takes the dog to the opposite side of the island giving it some food as a distraction. He runs back to the sheep only to find the dog growling at him. The man ties the dog to a tree with a large leash. He goes back to the sheep only to find the dog growling with a gnawed off leash around its neck. By now, the man is getting depressed and frustrated. As he sits under a palm tree staring out to sea, a beautiful woman in a tight-fitting wet suit emerges from the surf. She asks him who he is and, taking pity upon his lonely state, asks if there's ANYTHING she could do for him. The man thinks for a moment and then responds: "Could you take the dog for a walk?"

Wearing a beard
And a red flannel suit,

In a miniature sleigh
With eight tiny reindeer
To pull him along,
Then let's face the fact that
Your eggnog's too strong.

"A Horse of a Different Color..."

The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on from
one generation to the next, says that when you discover
you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount.

However, in modern business, because of the heavy
investment factors to be taken into consideration, often other
strategies have to be tried with dead horses, including but
not limited to the following:

1. Buying a stronger whip.

2. Changing riders.

3. Threatening the horse with termination.

4. Appointing a committee to study the horse.

5. Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses.

6. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.

7. Appointing an intervention team to re-animate the dead horse.

8. Creating a training session to increase the rider's load share.

9. Re-classifying the dead horse as living-impaired.

10. Change the form so that it reads: "This horse is not dead."

11. Hire outside contractors to ride the dead horse.

12. Harness several dead horses together for increased
speed.

13. Donate the dead horse to a recognized charity, thereby
deducting its full original cost.

14. Providing additional funding to increase the horse's
performance.

15. Do a time management study to see if the lighter riders
would improve productivity.

16. Purchase an after-market product to make dead horses
run faster.

17. Declare that a dead horse has lower overhead and
therefore performs better.

18. Form a quality focus group to find profitable uses for
dead horses.

19. Rewrite the expected performance requirements for
horses.

20. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position.

21. Apply for a government subsidy to retrain dead horses.

"Dormitory Rules"

On the first day of college, the Dean addressed the
students, pointing out some of the rules.

"The female dormitory will be out-of-bounds for all male
students, so too the male dormitory to the female students.
Anybody caught breaking this rule will be fined $50 the first
time. Anybody caught breaking this rule the second time
will be fined $150. Being caught a third time will incur a hefty
fine of $500.

"Are there any questions?"

At this, a male student in the crowd inquired, "Err... How
much for a season pass?"

-----------------------

"The Stork"

Two storks are sitting in their nest: a father stork and baby
stork. Baby stork is crying and crying, and father stork is
trying to calm him, "Don't worry, son. Your mother will
come back. She's only bringing people babies and making
them happy."

The next night, it's father's turn to do the job. Mother and son
are sitting in the nest, son is crying, and mother is saying,
"Son, your father will be back as soon as possible, but now
he's bringing joy to new mommies and daddies."

A few days later, the stork parents are desperate. Their son
is absent from the nest all night! Shortly before dawn, he
returns, and the parents ask him where he's been all night.
Says the baby stork, "Nowhere in particular. Just scaring the
hell out of college students!"

Oh, be forewarned....women don't like these jokes......

         
Went out last night and got really wasted. I woke up in the middle of the night next to some chick who was snoring and farting,...so I knew I made it home OK!


The wife's back on the warpath again. She was up for making a sex movie last night, and all I did was suggest we should hold auditions for her part.

I've accidentally swallowed some Scrabble tiles. My next crap could spell disaster.

         
My sister-in-law sat on my glasses and broke them. It was my own fault. I should have taken them off.

         
I spent a couple of hours defrosting the fridge last night, or "foreplay" a she likes to call it.
         

After both suffering from depression for a while, me and the wife were going to commit suicide yesterday. But strangely enough, once she killed herself, I started to feel a lot better. So I thought, "Fuck it, soldier on!"

I woke up this morning at 8, and could smell something was wrong. I got downstairs and found the wife face down on the kitchen floor, not breathing! I panicked. I didn't know what to do. Then I remembered McDonald's serves breakfast until 11:30.

         
Bought the missus a hamster skin coat last week. Took her to the fair last night, and it took me 3 hours to get her off the Ferris wheel.
         

The other night, my wife asked me how many women I'd slept with. I told her, "Only you. All the others kept me awake all night!"

         
My missus packed my bags, and as I walked out the front door, she screamed, "I wish you a slow and painful death, you bastard!"
"Oh," I replied, "so now you want me to stay!"

         
A government survey has shown that 91% of illegal immigrants come to this country so that they can see their own doctor.

         
I've just installed strobe lights in the bedroom. It makes the wife look like she's moving during sex.

"No one can go back and change the beginning, but we can start a change today to write a new ending."

'Twas the Week After Christmas

'Twas the week after Christmas, and all through the house,
I found nothing to fit me, not even a blouse.
The cookies I'd nibble, the eggnog I'd taste,
all the holiday parties had gone to my waist.

When I got on the scales, there arose such a number!
When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).
I remembered the marvelous meals I'd prepared...
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared.

The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese,
and the way that I never said, "No thank you, please."
As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt,
and prepared once again to battle the dirt,

I said to myself, as I only can,
"You can't spend a winter dressed up like a man!"
So away with the last of the sour cream dip,
get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip.

Every last bit of food that I like must be banished,
until all the additional ounces have vanished.
I won't have a cookie, not even a lick.
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.

I won't have hot biscuits, or cornbread, or pie.
I'll munch on a carrot -- and quietly cry.
I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore,
but isn't that what January is for?

Unable to giggle, no longer a riot,
Happy New Year to all!!!
.....and to all...a good diet!
