A rather attractive woman goes up to the register in an upscale hamburger establishment. She gestures alluringly to a large man who comes over immediately. When he arrives, she seductively signals that he should bring his face close to hers. When he does so, she begins to gently caress his cheek, which is slowly turning a crimson red.

"Are you the owner?"

she asks, now softly stroking his face with both hands."No" he replies, "I''m just the manager."

"Can you get him for me? I need to speak to him."

She asks, running her hands up beyond his ears andinto his hair.

"I''m afraid I can''t," breathes the manager clearly aroused," he''s in the back doing taxes right now. Is there anything I can do?"

"Yes, there is. I need you to give him a message."

She continues huskily, popping a couple of fingers into his mouth and allowing him to suck them gently.

"Tell him" she says "that there is no toilet paper or hand soap in the ladies room."

"Widow"

A widow, recently married to a widower, was accosted
by a friend who laughingly remarked, "I suppose, like
all men who have been married before, your husband
sometimes talks about his first wife?"

"Oh, not any more," the other woman replied.

"What stopped him?" asked the first.

"I started talking about my next husband," replied the

"The Blonde and Snow"

One winter morning in upstate New York, the
husband and the blonde were listening to the
radio while eating breakfast. They heard the
announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10
inches of snow today. You must park your car
on the even-numbered side of the street, so
the snowplows can get through." The big chest
blonde went out and moved her car.

A week later while they were again eating breakfast,
the radio announcer said, "We are expecting 10 to
12 inches of snow today. You must park your car
on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the
snowplows can get through." She put on some
clothes and went out and moved her car again.

The next week they were again having breakfast,
when the radio announcer said, "We are expecting
12 to 14 inches of snow today. You must park..."
Then the electric power went off. The well endowed
blonde was very upset, and with a worried look on
her face she said, "Honey, I don't know what to do.
Which side of the street do I need to park on so the
snowplows can get through?"

With the love and understanding in his voice that
all men who support blonde women, the husband
said, "Why don't you just leave it in the garage
this time?"

A man walks into the street and the moment he steps onto the curb and raises his hand a taxi swings by and stops. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, "Perfect timing. You just landing a taxi without waiting. Thats the sort of think Frank would have done."

Passenger: "Who?"

Cabbie: "Frank Feldman. Now there's an amazing guy who did everything right. Never a foot wrong. Whatever he did, its was perfect, like he didnt even need to try."

Passenger: "Nobodys perfect. Everyone has a few clouds over them"

Cabbie: "Not Frank. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano."

Passenger: "Sounds like he was something really special"

Cabbie: "There's more"......."He had a memory like a computer. Could remember everybody's birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out."

Passenger: "Wow, some bloke then"

Cabbie: "He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams, not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. And he drove like a dream, calm, collected and was never late for anything."

"Passenger. "Mmm, there's not many like him around."

Cabbie: "And he knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good and never answer her back even if she was in the wrong. He knew what a lady wanted in bed too, sensitive. And his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too."

Passenger: "An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"

Cabbie: "Well, I never actually met Frank."

Passenger: "Then how do you know so much about him?"

Rodney walks into a bar and says, "Bartender, give me two shots. One for me and one for my best buddy."

The bartender says, "You want both drinks now or do you want me to wait until your buddy arrives to pour his?"

Rodney says, "Oh, I want them both now. I've got my best buddy in my pocket here." With that he pulls out a little 3-inch man from his pocket.

The bartender says, "Wow! And you mean to say he can drink that much?" "Oh, sure. He can drink it all, and then some," Rodney retorted. So the bartender poured the two shots. Sure enough, the little guy drinks it all up.

"That's amazing," says the bartender. "What else can he do? Can he walk?" Rodney flicks a quarter down to the end of the bar and says, "Hey Al, go get that quarter!" The little guy runs down to the end of the bar, picks up the quarter, and runs back and gives it to Rodney.

The bartender is totally amazed by this display. "That's a hoot," he says, "what else can he do? Does he talk?"

Rodney looks up at the bartender with a look of surprise in his eye and squawks, "Talk? Sure he talks --too bloody much. Hey Al, tell him about that time we were in Africa on safari and you told that witch doctor to go fuck himself!"

"Moses Behind Enemy Lines"

Ten year old Mikey, was asked by his mother
what he had learned in Vacation Bible School.

"Well, Mommy, our teacher told us how God sent
Moses behind enemy lines on a rescue mission
to lead His Chosen People out of Egypt. When he
got to the Red Sea, he had his engineers build a
pontoon bridge and all the people walked across
safely. Then he used his cell phone to call
headquarters for reinforcements. They called in
an air strike of the Israeli Air Defense to take out
the bridge and all the Israelites were saved."

"Now, Mikey, is that really what your teacher taught
you?" his mother asked.

"Well, no, Mom. But if I told it the way the teacher
did, you'd never believe it!"

George Carlin is still spot on:

COWS
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where
she sleeps in the state of Washington And they tracked her calves to their
stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering
around our country. Maybe we should give them all a cow.

CONSTITUTION
They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just
give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked
for over 200 years and we're not using it anymore.

TEN COMMANDMENTS
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse!
You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shall
Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians! It creates
a hostile work environment!


AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST
George Carlin said it best about Martha Stewart . "Boy, I feel a lot safer
now that she's behind bars. O.J. Simpson and Kobe Bryant are still walking
around; Osama Bin Laden too, but they take the one woman in America willing
to cook, clean, and work in the yard, and haul her butt off to jail."

Jack wakes up with a huge hangover after attending his company's Christmas Party. Jack is not normally a drinker, but the drinks didn't taste like alcohol at all. He didn't even remember how he got home from the party. As bad as he was feeling, he wondered if he did something wrong. Jack had to force himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose!
Jack sits up and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins,
cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror. Then he notices a note hanging on the corner of the mirror written in red with little hearts on it and a kiss mark from his wife in lipstick!:
"Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go get groceries to make you your favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling!" He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast,
steaming hot coffee and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table eating. Jack asks, "Son. what happened last night?"
"Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and out of your mind. You fell over the coffee table and broke it, and then you puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door."
Confused he asked his son, "So, why is everything in such perfect order, so clean, I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?" His son replies, "Oh THAT!... Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave me alone, lady, I'm married!"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having sex for the first time. Reason: under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry.
(Let's just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere else in the world that even comes close to this?)
   *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I have heard this same thing from many different sources. It seems to be a very popular myth. In fact there was a writer for ESPN who made the mistake of believing it and mentioning it in a column on the internet. He got into big trouble with the Government of Guam. The senatorial representative wrote to ESPN and demanded an apology. She got it. Believe me, this one is a myth.

How do I know? I live on Guam. I have friends in the community. Some of those friends are experts in the history and culture of the island, past and present. This was never the case and it certainly would not be allowed now. Guam has been a Christian society, mostly Catholic, since the 18th century. The priests would be horrified and the parents on this island would be outraged at the idea.

Makes a good story but be careful who you repeat it to.
