TOP 12 THINGS NOT TO SAY TO A PATROL OFFICER
1. I can't reach my license unless you hold my beer.
2. Sorry, Officer, I didn't realize my radar detector wasn't plugged in.
3. Aren't you the guy from the Village People?
4. Hey, you must've been doin' about 125 mph to keep up with me. Good job!
5. Are You Andy or Barney?
6. I thought you had to be in relatively good physical condition to be a police officer.
7. You're not gonna check the trunk, are you?
8. I pay your salary!
9. Gee, Officer! That's terrific. The last officer only gave me a warning, too!
10. Do you know why you pulled me over? Okay, just so one of us does.
11. I was trying to keep up with traffic. Yes, I know there are no other cars around. That's how far ahead of me they are.
12. When the Officer says "Gee Son....Your eyes look red, have you been drinking?" You probably shouldn't respond with, "Gee Officer your eyes look glazed, have you been eating doughnuts?" |

One day he goes to the circus owner and says "You have to find another job for me, I'm getting too old to be the human cannonball, my ears hurt from the bang, my bones ache from the landing, my bruises last longer. I'm willing to do anyhting else, juggle, sweep up, sell tickets anything." The circus owner looks him straight in the eye and says "but where will find someone of your calibre?"

Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: John OSh Date: 25 May 99 - 05:58 PM Thought this one was a riot... An American tourist is sightseeing in Scotland and stops into a pub to get a pint. As he sits at the bar, he sees and old man sitting there, muttering angrily to himself. Suddenly, the old man looks at the tourist and says to him: "Ye see that stone fence out there." The tourist replies: "Why, yes, that's a might long stone fence" "Well" says the old one, "I built it myself, dug up the stones, and laid it out, stone by stone for a mile. And do they call me McGregor the Fence builder! Hell No!" Taken aback by the oldtimers passionate reply,, the American say "Sorry to hear that." "And do ye see that big barn across the field" says the old one. "Mighty big barn" say the American. "Aye, and I cut down the trees, planed the wood, and built it, plank by plank. And do they call me McGregor the Barn Builder! Hell No!" "Sorry to hear that." again replies the American. Then McGregor says "But you have sex with one sheep..."

Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: Roger in Baltimore Date: 25 May 99 - 06:36 PM An Irishman staggers home from the tavern late one night with a pint of good whiskey in his back pocket. As drunks will do, he stumbles and falls. When he slowly gets up again, he feels some liquid running down the back of his leg. He mutters a short prayer, "Lord, let it be blood." He finally gets home and his wife is asleep. He goes to the bathroom to assess the damage. Sure enough the pint is OK, but as he pulls down his pants and looks in the mirror he sees several cuts on his rear that are still bleeding. He cleans himself off as best he can and gets some bandaids from the medicine cabinet. He has to use the mirror to see where to put the bandaids, but eventually he is successful at covering the damage and goes off to bed. The next morning, his wife wakes him up much too early. Shesays, "Ah, you were drunk last night!" He pleads innocence, but she presses on. "Oh, I knew you were drunk as soon as I saw the bandaids on the bathroom mirror!" NOI toward anyone of the Irish persuasion. Roger in Baltimore |

An old drunk man falls to the floor of the pub, and the barkeep tellshim he'll have to leave. He can't pull himself up so he drags himself out to the sidewalk and starts pulling himself and crawling to his home. When he gets there, he pulls himself up to his door and opens it, pulls himself in, and crawls into bed and passes out. Next morning, his wife wakes him rather unfriendly like, and bellows "You've been at the pub again, haven't you??" He say "how did you know that??" She says "Well, the bar called and you forgot your wheelchair again!!!" NOI - apologies to anyone offended. Love, Anna

Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: Banjer Date: 25 May 99 - 07:22 PM An older gentleman having recently moved to another part of Ireland where he was not know goes into the local pub and orders three pints of Guiness. He then takes the three pints, finds himself a table and proceeds to drink the pints after tapping them all together and giving a toast. This goes on each night therafter. The innkeeper, bursting with curiousity at this nightly ritual, finaly asks the man, "Why do you perform tis routine each evening?" The oldtimer explains that in his previous home he and two of his mates had agreed that no matter where any of them moved that they would each drink three stouts a night in their honor. One went to Australia, one moved to Canada and this old timer had relocated here, continuing the agreed upon ritual. Time passed and one day he came in and ordered only two stouts, taking them to his table and slowly drinking them down. The next night, the inkeeper having noticed the change in routine went to the old man's table and told him he was sorry to see that he was now only getting two pints, and commiserating with the old gentleman on the loss of one of his mates. "Oh, you've got it all wrong," said the old timer, "all three of us are still very much alive!" "It's just that I've given up drinking!" |

Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: Banjer Date: 27 May 99 - 06:32 AM The chalk mark awakens another story!!! It seems these two fellows, not among the higher IQ set, had rented a boat to go fishing. Their day was a huge success, catching the limit on everything. As they were rowing back to shore one said to the other, "We should have marked that spot so we can find it again next time." His partner replied, "I'm way ahead of you, I put a mark on the side of the boat!" Came the retort, "Well that was stupid, what if we don't get the same boat next time?" Or this one: Two boys had inherited a very small farm on the passing of their father and they decided that they would split everything evenly. There were two horses, and it was decided that in order to identify ownership some sort of distiguishing mark should be used. The one lad said, "Let's crop the tail of one so that we can tell them apart!" Good Idea!" Said the other. The chore having been accomplished, the two were walking back toward the house when one turned and looked back. He said to his brother, "You know, we didn't have to crop the tail on that horse, the white one stands a whole head taller than the black one!" |
Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: annamill Date: 27 May 99 - 04:35 PM Hi, This cut and paste again. I hope it works this time. annap
A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo, and when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole is maintained or even improved by the regular culling of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can operate only as fast as the slowest brain cells through which the electrical signals pass. Recent epidemiological studies have shown that while excessive intake of alcohol kills off brain cells, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. Thus, regular consumption of beer helps eliminate the weaker cells, constantly making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. The result of this in-depth study verifies and validates the causal link between all-weekend parties and job-related performance. It also explains why, after a few short years of leaving university and getting married, most professionals cannot keep up with the performance of the new graduates. Only those few that stick to the strict regimen of voracious alcoholic consumption can maintain the intellectual levels that they achieved during their university years. So, this is a call to arms. As our country is losing its technological edge we should not shudder in our homes. Get back into the bars! Quaff that pint! Your company and country need you to be at your peak, and you shouldn't deny yourself the career that you could have. Take life by the bottle and be all that you can be!

They stated it would probably work if aimed right in the face, but spraying it on one's body or one's children as a "repellent" would merely attract the bears, making them want to roll around on you, lap at your clothes and most likely maul you like a cat does a mouse! kat |

She puts the parrot on a beautiful perch in her bedroom. when she starts to take her top off, the parrot straightens up. When she removes her bra, the parrot says: "Nice boobs!" She grabs the parrot, takes him downstairs, and puts him in the freezer for a couple of minutes. She then takes him back upstairs and says: "Now, we'll have no more of that kind of talk." She then unzips her skirt, and the parrot straightens up. When she removes her panties, the parrot says: "Nice ass!" She grabs the parrot, heads downstairs, and puts him back in the freezer for ten minutes. When she opens the door to the freezer, the parrot is covered in frost and shivering.

Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: Alice Date: 29 May 99 - 12:06 PM THE YETI
An English explorer was taking part in an expedition to the Himalayas. Led by a grizzled local guide, they ascended one of the less frequently climbed peaks. Roughly halfway up the side of the mountain, a member of the expedition came across a set of large manlike tracks in the snow. "Yeti tracks," the sherpa said with a gruff voice as he passed them. "One thing you must know before we proceed; do not, under any circumstances, touch the yeti." The expedition heeded his warning and continued to climb the slope. Night fell, and the explorers set up their tents. In the dead of night, the Englishman awoke to the sound of his tent entrance unzipping. Half-asleep, he looked up to see an enormous eight-foot yeti standing above him. In fear for his life the explorer jumped up and ran out of the tent, banging into the yeti in the process. The yeti, after being touched by the explorer let out a deafening howl and began to chase the explorer down the slope.
The explorer ran away from the camp as quickly as his legs could take him, after he rounded a corner he looked behind him to see the bounding form of the yeti still chasing him.
So the explorer continued to run, reaching the bottom of the mountain in just two days, exhausted he paused to rest awhile. After just a few moments, the explorer began to hear the soft 'thud thud thud' of yeti feet on snow, he looked up the slope to see the yeti still chasing him and only moments away.
The explorer took off again, reaching a supply shack a couple of miles away, once there quickly buying a mountain bike and pedaling his way to the nearest town, some fifty miles away. The journey took him several days over the rough terrain and after his arrival he booked into a hotel to recuperate. Two days later the man left his hotel to see about booking transport back to England. As soon as he turned around though he saw the form of the yeti on the horizon, bounding towards him at great speed. Horrified by this sight, the explorer hurriedly bought a car and drove it away from the village all the way to Delhi. Once he arrived, the man wasted no time in getting on the next plane to London.
After his arrival back in London, the man went back to his London home for a while to recover and to plan his next expedition. He had been there less than two weeks and was gazing out of a window when he saw a familiar large bounding, manlike creature running down his street; the man couldn't believe it -- somehow the yeti had followed him to England! The man had little choice but to run away again, he used any means he could, bike, car, or on foot to try to escape the yeti, but each time he looked behind him, it was just moments before the yeti came into view. Eventually the man made it all the way to Edinburgh and from there ran into the open Scottish countryside. He continued to run but the yeti just kept getting closer and closer, and in the end the man could run no more. With the yeti less than a minute away from him, the man finally stopped and turned around to face the oncoming creature. With the last of his strength he stood up straight as the yeti caught up with him. The eight-foot tall yeti towered above the man, who could only stare in terror. The yeti extended his hand and poked the Englishman squarely in the chest with one long finger and in a low rumbling voice the yeti said, "Tag! You're it!" |

I cannot find this anywhere and would be forever greatful. My email address (if you got the goods) is: feingold@att.net) I'm including this email address because I'm a novice at the internet and don't want to venture a bet that I'll find myself back at this forum in the near future unless I trip over it. Also -- does anyone know if Loudon Wainwright III's first two LPs are available anywhere...? And/or if they've made it to CD yet? (There would be the one's that came out prior to "Dead Skunk") |
Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: Roger in Baltimore Date: 31 May 99 - 12:19 AM Marc, You have buried two requests in an unrelated thread. I see you did finally post for "Morning Again." And you received a quick reply. I have started a thread entitled Loudon Wainwright III's First 2 Albums to help with the second request. Welcome to the Mudcat. Specific requests do best on specific threads. Many of us Mudcatters do not read every thread. Instead, we read the one's that interest us or one's we feel we have an answer for. That's the best way to get our attention, a specific thread with the specific request in the title.

Subject: RE: Danger: Irony & Humour - Ignore this thread! From: No Offense Intended Date: 31 May 99 - 11:09 PM This topic is outdated, but might be funny for those downunder: Given the sudden emergence of the One Nation Party as a political force in Australia, the government has indicated that all universities should go about estimating the number of One Nation voters in their student catchment, as a potentially new equity group (the "morally embarrassed"). To assist in this task the Australian Bureau of Statistics has just released a relevant demographic profile, stated in a form that can be added as a question directly to university's enrolment forms. Please action as appropriate. "Please cross out the incorrect response: I am / am not a redneck. As a guide to respondees, you can say that you are a redneck if: ... your bicycle has a gun rack ... you consider your license plate personalized because your dad made it ... your mother keeps a spittoon on her ironing board ... the UFO hotline limits you to one call per day ... you think prime entertainment is a sixpack of beer and a bug zapper ... the directions to your house include 'turn off the paved road' ....* your richest relatives just bought a new house and you helped take the wheels off ...** hailstorm hits your house and you have to take it to the body shop for an estimate ...* you have curtains in your truck but not in your house ... the window on the passenger side of your car is a "hefty" bag .. you have a denim leisure suit." *
