"Popular Karen"

My new girlfriend, Karen, got a job at a local
hardware store. "The owner doesn't want us
hanging out with our friends," she said. "If you
stop by, tell them you're my brother."

On my first visit I walked to the customer
service desk and asked the older woman
there, "Is Karen around?"

When she looked at me quizzically, I added,
"I'm her brother."

She smiled. "What a nice surprise. I'm Karen's
mother."

"Important Signature"

I was signing the receipt for my credit card
purchase when the clerk noticed that I had
never signed my name on the back of the
credit card. She informed me that she could
not complete the transaction unless the card
was signed.

When I asked why, she explained that it was
necessary to compare the signature on the
credit card with the signature I just signed on
the receipt.

So I signed the credit card in front of her. She
carefully compared that signature to the one
I signed on the receipt.

Luckily, they matched.

Reminded of this historical joke, which goes back to my WWii childhood, by recent rerun of episode of Foyle's War in which the Americans arrived in Hastings in 1942; & also by line quoted on current thread from some versions of Eskimo Nell. There was a range of wartime goods, govt-approved for their patriotic plain austere fitness-for-purpose, marked with a kitemark to signify 'Utility': whence ~~

"Change"

My daughter and I went through the McDonald's
take-out window and I gave the clerk a $5 bill.
Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her a quarter.
She said, "You gave me too much money."

I said, "Yes I know, but this way you can just give
me a dollar bill back."

She sighed and went to get the manager who
asked me to repeat my request. I did so, and he
handed me back the quarter, and said "We're sorry
but they could not do that kind of thing."

The clerk then proceeded to give me back $1 and
75 cents in change.

Do not confuse the clerks at McD's.

A driver was stuck in a traffic jam on the highway outside Washington, DC.
Nothing was moving. Suddenly, a man knocks on the window.

The driver rolls down the window and asks, "What's going on?"
"Terrorists have kidnapped Congress, and they're asking for a $100
million dollar ransom. Otherwise, they are going to douse them all in
gasoline and set them on fire. We are going from car to car, collecting
donations."
"How much is everyone giving, on average?" the driver asks.
The man replies, "Roughly a gallon ."

Conjoined twins walk into a pub in Toronto and park themselves on a bar stool. One of them says to the bartender, "Don't mind us, we're joined at the hip. I'm John, he's Jim. Two Molson Canadian beers please."

The bartender, feeling slightly awkward, tries to make polite conversation while pouring the beers. "Been on holiday, lads?"

"Off to England next month," says John. "We go to England every year, hire a car, and drive for miles, don't we, Jim?" Jim agrees.

"Ah, England!" says the bartender. "Wonderful Country...the history, the beer, the culture..."

"Nah, we don't like that British crap," says John. "Hamburgers and Molson's beer, that's us, eh, Jim? And we can't stand the English; they're so arrogant and rude, not civil and polite like us Canadians."

"So why keep going to England?" asks the bartender.

"It's the only chance Jim gets to drive."

It is a slow day in the small Colorado town of Pump Handle and streets
are deserted. Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody is
living on credit.

A tourist visiting the area drives through town, stops at the motel, and
lays a $100 bill on the desk saying he wants to inspect the rooms
upstairs to pick one for the night.

As soon as he walks upstairs, the motel owner grabs the bill and runs
next door to pay his debt to the butcher.

The butcher takes the $100 and runs down the street to retire his debt to
the pig farmer.

The pig farmer takes the $100 and heads off to pay his bill to his
supplier, the Co-op.

The guy at the Co-op takes the $100 and runs to pay his debt to the local
prostitute, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer her
"services" on credit.

The hooker rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill with the hotel
owner.
The hotel proprietor then places the $100 back on the counter so the
traveler will not suspect anything. At that moment the traveler comes
down the stairs, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, picks up the
$100 bill and leaves.


No one produced anything. No one earned anything...
However, the whole town is now out of debt and now looks to the future
with a lot more optimism.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how a "stimulus package" works... or should work ... providing the money gets spent in our country!

"Not Home"

My husband is wonderful with our baby daughter,
but often turns to me for advice. Recently, I was
in the shower when he poked his head in to ask,
"What should I feed Lily for lunch?"

"That's up to you," I replied. "There's all kinds of
food. Why don't you pretend I'm not home?"

A few minutes later, my cell phone rang. I hopped

"Quick Thinkers"

Al Capp, creator of the famous comic strip Lil
Abner, was one day invited to a university to
give a lecture to the students.

Before he could begin speaking to the large
group assembled in the auditorium, a very
unkempt-looking student at the back shouted
a vulgar word at him.

The word rung in everyone's ears.

There was a shocked silence but Capp, keeping
his composure, said: "Now that you've given us
your name, what's your question?"

A blackjack dealer and a player with a thirteen
count in his hand were arguing about whether
or not it was appropriate to tip the dealer.

The player said, "When I get bad cards, it's not
the dealer's fault. Accordingly, when I get good
cards, the dealer obviously had nothing to do
with it so, why should I tip him?"

The dealer said, "When you eat out do you tip
the waiter?"

"Yes."

"Well then, he serves you food, I'm serving you
cards, so you should tip me."

"Okay, but, the waiter gives me what I ask for.
So I'll take an eight."

"At the Department Store"

While at work one day at my department store
I was working hard stocking the shelves. During
this time a lady approached and said, "Excuse
me, sir, but do you work here?"

I replied "Yes", while thinking to myself, 'Nope, it's
just that everyone that works here wants to
dress like me.'"

The lady then told me that she saw an item she
wanted boxed on the shelf but it wasn't out on
display. Next she asked me if it would be to too
much trouble for me to open the box to let her look at
it. Now I'm thinking to myself again, 'You better
buy this, after putting me through all this trouble.'

After opening the box and examining the product
closely she smiled and thanked me for letting her see
the item. I then asked her if she wanted to buy
the item and she said,

"Yes, but do you have one that hasn't been
opened!"

"Nursing Homes vs Jail"

Let's put the seniors in jail and the criminals in nursing
homes. This would correct a few things in one motion:

1) Seniors would have access to showers, hobbies and
walks.

2) They would receive unlimited free prescriptions,
dental and medical treatment, wheel chairs, etc.

3) They would receive money instead of having to pay
it out.

4) They would have constant video monitoring, so
they would be helped instantly if they fell or needed
assistance.

5) Bedding would be washed twice a week and all
clothing would be ironed and returned to them.

6) A guard would check on them every 20 minutes.

7) All meals and snacks would be brought to them.

8) They would have family visits in a suite built for
that purpose.

9) They would have access to a library, weight/fitness
room, spiritual counseling, a pool and education...
and free admission to in-house concerts by nationally
recognized entertainment artists.

10) Simple clothing - I.e., shoes, slippers, pjs - and
legal aid would be free, upon request.

11) There would be private, secure rooms provided
for all with an outdoor exercise yard complete with
gardens.

12) Each senior would have a P.C., T.V., phone and
radio in their room at no cost.

13) They would receive daily phone calls.

14) There would be a board of directors to hear any
complaints and the ACLU would fight for their rights
and protection.

15) The guards would have a code of conduct to be
strictly adhered to, with attorneys available, at no
charge to protect the seniors and their families from
abuse or neglect.


As for the criminals:

1) They would receive cold food.

2) They would be left alone and unsupervised.

3) They would receive showers once a week..

4) They would live in tiny rooms, for which they would
have to pay $5,000 per month.

5) They would have no hope of ever getting out.

My wife found out that our dog (a Schnauzer) could hardly hear, so she took it to the veterinarian.

The vet found that the problem was hair in the dog's ears. He cleaned both ears, and the dog could then hear fine.

The vet then proceeded to tell Andrea that, if she wanted to keep this from recurring, she should go to the store and get some "Nair" hair remover and rub it in the dog's ears once a month.
Andrea went to the store and bought some "Nair" hair remover.

At the register, the pharmacist told her, "If you're going to use this under your arms, don't use deodorant for a few days."
Andrea said, "I'm not using it under my arms."

The pharmacist said, "If you're using it on your legs, don't use body lotion for a couple of days."

Andrea replied, "I'm not using it on my legs either. If you must know, I'm using it on my Schnauzer."

The pharmacist says, "Well, stay off your bicycle for about a week."

If we are recycling the old ones -

It was entertainment night at the Senior Citizens Center.
Claude the hypnotist explained: "I'm here to put you into a trance; I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience."

The excitement was almost electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat. "I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very special watch. It's been in my family for six generations"

He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting, "Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch. .. ."

The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface.

Hundreds of pairs eyes followed the swaying watch, until, suddenly, the chain broke, it slipped from Claud's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces. "SHIT!" he said.

It took three days to clean up the hall, and Claude was never invited back.

Texan in Australia.

A Texan farmer goes to Australia for a vacation. There he meets an Aussie farmer and gets talking. The Aussie shows off his big wheat field and the Texan says, "Oh! We have wheat fields that are at least twice as large".

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"?

Oh and one more for the road.

Why Did the Iraqi Chicken cross the Road?

Coalition Provisional Authority:

The fact that the Iraqi chicken crossed the road affirmatively demonstrates that decision-making authority has been transferred to the chicken well in advance of the scheduled June 30th transition of power. From now on the chicken is responsible for its own decisions.

Halliburton:

We were asked to help the chicken cross the road. Given the inherent risk of road crossing and the rarity of chickens, this operation will only cost the US government $326,004.

Muqtada al-Sadr:

The chicken was a tool of the evil Coalition and will be killed.

US Army Military Police:

We were directed to prepare the chicken to cross the road. As part of these preparations, individual soldiers ran over the chicken repeatedly and then plucked the chicken. We deeply regret the occurrence of any chicken rights violations.

Peshmerga:

The chicken crossed the road, and will continue to cross the road, to show its independence and to transport the weapons it needs to defend itself. However, in future, to avoid problems, the chicken will be called a duck, and will wear a plastic bill.

1st Cav:

The chicken was not authorized to cross the road without displaying two forms of picture identification. Thus, the chicken was appropriately
detained and searched in accordance with current SOP's. We apologize for any embarrassment to the chicken. As a result of this unfortunate incident, the command has instituted a gender sensitivity training program and all future chicken searches will be conducted by female soldiers.

Al Jazeera:

The chicken was forced to cross the road multiple times at gunpoint by a large group of occupation soldiers, according to eye-witnesses. The chicken was then fired upon intentionally, in yet another example of the abuse of innocent Iraqi chickens.

Blackwater:

We cannot confirm any involvement in the chicken-road-crossing incident.

Translators:

Chicken he cross street because bad she tangle regulation. Future chicken table against my request.

U.S. Marine Corps:

The chicken is dead

Balance on Earth

Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for Six days. Eventually, Michael the Archangel found him, resting on the seventh day. He inquired of God, "Where have you been?"

God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds, "Look Michael, look what I've made." Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said, "What is it?"

"It's a planet, replied God, "and I've put LIFE on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a great place of balance".

"Balance?" inquired Michael, still confused.

God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth.

"For example, Northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth while Southern Europe is going to be poor; the Middle East over there will be a hot spot."

"Over there I've placed a continent of white people and over there is a continent of black people" God continued, pointing to different countries. "And over there, I call this place America.

North America will be rich and powerful and cold, while South America will be poor, and hot and friendly. And the little spot in the middle is Central America which is a Hot spot. Can you see the balance?"

"Yes" said the Archangel, impressed by Gods work, then he pointed to a smallish land mass and asked, "What's that one?"

"Ah" said God. "That's New Zealand, the most glorious place on Earth. There are beautiful mountains, rainforests, rivers, streams and an exquisite coast line. The people are good looking, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be found traveling the world. They'll be extremely sociable, hard-working and high-achieving, and they will be known throughout the world as diplomats and carriers of peace. I'm also going to give them super- human, undefeatable, strong in character citizens who will be admired and feared by all who come across them".

Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then exclaimed, "You said there will be BALANCE!"

God replied wisely. "Wait until you see the buggers I'm putting next to 'em".

Cheers,

Andrez

A Drovers Tale

Two Aussie cattle drovers standing in an Outback bar.

One asked, "What are you up to, Mate?"

Ahh, I'm takin' a mob of 6000 from Goondiwindi to Gympie."

"Oh yeah ... and what route are you takin'?"

"Ah, probably the Missus; after all, she stuck by me durin' the drought."

Heisenberg is out for a drive when he's stopped by a traffic cop. The cop says 'Do you know how fast you were going?' Heisenberg says 'No, but I know where I am.'

"In Australia. ..... Root (verb and noun) : synonym for f*ck in nearly all its senses: "I feel rooted"; ..." ~~

online Oz Slang Dictionary. Easy to google. So I take it that Andrez's joke paltered with the meanings/pronunciations of 'route/root'.

Right, Andrez? If so, then 'simples'.

If not, then I'll just shut up & off again down the garden to eat worms...

You got it in one MtheGM! Perhaps this one will be a little less ambiguous.

Australian brain transplant joke.

An Englishman wanted to become an Irishman, so he visited a doctor to find out how to go about this. "Well" said the doctor, "this is a very delicate operation and there is a lot that can go wrong. I will have to remove half your brain". "That's OK" said the Englishman. "I've always wanted to be Irish and I'm prepared to take the risk".

The operation went ahead but the Englishman woke to find a look of horror on the face of the doctor. "I'm so terribly sorry!!" the doctor said. "Instead of removing half the brain, I've taken the whole brain out". The patient replied, "No worries, mate!!"

Cheers,

Andrez

A liberal Muslim homosexual ACLU lawyer professor and abortion doctor was teaching a class on Karl Marx, known atheist.

"Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Marx and accept that he was the most highly-evolved being the world has ever known, even greater than Jesus Christ!"

At this moment, a brave, patriotic, pro-life Navy SEAL champion who had served 1500 tours of duty and understood the necessity of war and fully supported all military decision made by the United States stood up and held up a rock.

"How old is this rock, pinhead?"

The arrogant professor smirked quite Jewishly and smugly replied: "4.6 billion years, you stupid Christian."

"Wrong. It's been 6,000 years since God created it. If it was 4.6 billion years old and evolution, as you say, is real, then it should be an animal now."

The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of The Origin of Species. He stormed out of the room crying those liberal crocodile tears—the same tears liberals cry for the "poor" (who today live in such luxury that most own refrigerators) when they jealously try to claw justly earned wealth from the deserving job creators. There is no doubt that at this point our professor wished he had pulled himself up by his bootstraps and become more than a sophist liberal professor. He wished so much that he had a gun to shoot himself from embarrassment, but he himself had petitioned against them!

The students applauded and all registered Republican that day and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. An eagle named "Small Government" flew into the room and perched atop the American Flag and shed a tear on the chalk. The pledge of allegiance was read several times, and God himself showed up and enacted a flat tax rate across the country.

The professor lost his tenure and was fired the next day. He died of the gay plague AIDS and was tossed into the lake of fire for all eternity.

Semper Fi.
p.s. Close the borders.

Seeing Andrez' even handed approach to Aussie/Kiwi relationships has moved me to document the equal opportunity butcher in Auckland who pastes lambs tongues to his shop window for women to rub against!!

It was the first new Sheep joke I'd heard in 20 years

A man called home to his wife and said, "Honey I have been asked to go fishing up in Canada with my boss & several of his Friends. We'll be gone for a week. This is a good opportunity for me to get that Promotion I'v been wanting, so could you please pack enough Clothes for a week and set out my rod and fishing box, we're Leaving From the office & I will swing by the house to pick my things up" "Oh! Please pack my new blue silk pajamas." The wife thinks this sounds a bit fishy but being the good wife she is, did exactly what her husband asked. The following Weekend he came home a little tired but otherwise looking good. The wife welcomed him home and asked if he caught many fish? He said, "Yes! Lots of Salmon, some Bluegill, and a few Swordfish. But why didn't you pack my new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to Do?" You'll love the answer... The wife replied, "I did. They're in your fishing box....."
