03 Oct 06 - 10:26 AM (#1849228) Subject: RE: BS: Short jokes for txting From: JulieF Its hard to be profound in a such a short space and sometimes its just an unexpected txt that makes a difference. My own joke preference is for long rambling tales that take about 20 mins to tell. Besides why do you think I'm asking for help. J |

03 Oct 06 - 11:30 AM (#1849274) Subject: RE: BS: Short jokes for txting From: GUEST A couple of enterprising bass players, unwilling to sit through a long, bass-less stretch of Beethoven's Ninth, sneaked off stage and into the bar next door. Beer flowed; time passed. "Look at the time! We have to get back!" said one. "Relax," said his partner, "I tied the last few pages of the conductor's score together with string. It will take him a few minutes to untangle it." They staggered back into the hall and took their places. About this time, a member of the audience noted that the conductor was breaking a sweat. "Of course," replied her companion, "It's the bottom of the Ninth, the score's tied, and the bassists are loaded!" I guess by now you've all heard about the guy who held 100 banjo players hostage and, unless he was given $10,000,000, threatened to release one an hour. What is the difference between a soprano and a rotweiller? Jewelry! What do you call someone who hangs around with musicians? A drummer! There was a boy in kindergarten who played the viola. One day, he came home and said, "Mommy, today we practiced counting! I got all the way up to 10, but most of the kids messed up around 6 or 7!!!" and his mom said, "Good, that's because you're a violist." The next day he came home and said, "Mommy, today we practiced the alphabet! I got all the way to the end, but most of the kids got messed up around "s" or "t"!" and his mom said, "Good, that's because you're a violist." The next day, he came home and said "Mommy, guess what, they measured us today and I'm the tallest person in the whole class!!! Is that because I'm a violist, too?" and his mom said, "No, dear, that's because you're 25 years old." A violist is sitting in the front row, crying hysterically. The conductor asks the violist. "what's wrong?" The violist answers, "The second oboe loosened one of my tuning pegs." The conductor replied, " I admit, that seems a little childish, but nothing to get so upset about. Why are you crying?" To which the violist replied, "He won't tell me which one!!" A jazz player dies and goes to heaven... (no that's not the joke)... Once he gets there, St. Peter points to where the heavenly jazz band is forming. The guy goes there and sees all of the greats that ever lived... Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, everybody! Duke Ellington was conducting the band. "Duke, this is some kind of band! I mean, you've got everybody here! This is great!" "Yeah," Duke replies, "it's okay." The jazz player is shocked. "OK? This is the greatest band ever!" Duke replied, "Yeah, the band's great. But see, God has this girlfriend, and she sings." GREAT C and W song titles: "My John Deere Was Breaking Your Field, While Your Dear John Was Breaking My Heart" "I Still Miss You, Baby, But My Aim's Gettin' Better" |

03 Oct 06 - 04:22 PM (#1849521) Subject: RE: BS: Short jokes for txting From: Peace Bill, you will always be a bit of both to me. You are the strangest combination of weird humour and deep thought it has ever been my experience to encounter. Besides that, you are a wonderful human being. I don't say that often enough to the people I think that of. So let me get it said now and that will take care of it for a decade or so. |
