In Mt Isa, a child develops lead poisoning every 9 days!




















What we have to do, is FIND THAT CHILD, and stop him!

:-P

Every 15 minutes, a child gets lost!







What we have to do - is FIND THAT CHILD - or ban Hide & Seek! :-P






(Hey - some one's mighty fast on the trigger finger!)

you need help getting your tongue out of your cheek?

or your foot out of your mouth?

or your hoof out of your mouth?

The whole joke is lost with the "(tongue in cheek)" added.

But obviously humourous thread titling is the scourge of the Mudcat.

By the way I knew it was tongue and cheek when I saw. the three exclamation points.

One or no exclamation pints is normal. Two indicates hysteria. But three shows obvious humourous intent.

That's about as funny as a rubber crutch.

I think three exclamation pints is roughly equivalent to a British exclamatory gallon. You know how the Brits are...

Not a funny 'joke'....

I know several 'clever' jokes/lines/remarks that are in poor taste, so I don't share them.

Ban Hide and Seek.
I was always the hardest to find when playing Manhunt.
There was a big search party one time, all the adults started
looking for me, because the game was over for ages, and I was still
hiding, waiting for somebody to find me. Ha Ha.

"I betcha I know more bad taste jokes than you do."

But I know worse ones.... one of the worst is bad enough that just "Did you hear the one about the...." is a problem.

But, Rap is coming from the viewpoint of a bad habit, I assume.

The first version I heard of this one was "In Scotland, a woman gives birth every ten minutes...." which I find funnier.
