A Mr. Jones was sued by a Mrs. Johnson for defamation of
character. She charged that he had called her a pig. Mr. Jones
was indeed found guilty and fined.
After the trial he asked the judge, "Your Honor, this means that
I cannot call Mrs. Johnson a pig?"
The judge said that was true.
"Does this mean I cannot call a pig Mrs. Johnson?" the man asked.
The judge replied that he could indeed call a pig 'Mrs. Johnson'
with no fear of legal action.
Mr. Jones grinned, looked directly at Mrs. Johnson and said,
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Johnson."

A tour bus driver is driving with a bus full of seniors
down a highway when he is tapped on his shoulder by a little old lady.
She offers him a handful of peanuts, which he gratefully munches up.
After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder again
and she hands him another handful of peanuts. She repeats this
gesture about five more times. When she is about to hand him another
batch again he asks the little old lady why they don't eat the peanuts themselves.
"We can't chew them because we've no teeth", she replied. The puzzled
driver asks, "Why do you buy them then?"
The old lady replied, "We just love the chocolate around them."
It pays to be careful around old people....

There is a King in a foreign land. His favorite sweets are those little marshmallow birds so famous around Easter time. He especially loves the violet colored ones. Being King, of course, has it's privileges, not the least of which is being able to afford to pay someone to sort your favorite marshmallow treats so that only the crème-de-la-crème are presented to you. The King had his own personal sorter brought in specifically to ensure only the very best, highest tier treats would be given to the King. Of course, no one can work for the King without some sort of royal title. One wag suggested a silly title which not only described what the sorter did, but sounded like the subject of a silly
but popular song from the 1960's. What did the wag suggest for the sorter's title?

A priest, a Pentecostal preacher and a Rabbi all served as chaplains to the students of Northern Michigan University in Marquette. They would get together two or three times a week for coffee and to talk shop. One
day, someone made the comment that preaching to people isn't really all that hard. A real challenge would be to preach to a bear. One thing led to another and they decided to do an experiment. They would all go out into the woods, find a bear, preach to it, and attempt to convert it.
Seven days later, they're all together to discuss the experience. Father Flannery, who has his arm in a sling, is on crutches, and has various bandages, goes first. "Well," he says, "I went into the woods to find me a bear. And when I found him I began to read to him from the Catechism. Well, that bear wanted nothing to do with me and began to slap me around. So I quickly grabbed my holy water, sprinkled him and, Holy Mary
Mother of God, he became as gentle a lamb. The bishop is coming out next week to give him first communion."
Reverend Billy Bob spoke next. He was in a wheelchair, with an arm and both legs in casts, and an IV drip. In his best fire and brimstone oratory he claimed, "WELL brothers, you KNOW that we don't sprinkle! I went
out and I FOUND me a bear. And then I began to read to him from God's HOLY WORD! But that bear wanted nothing to do with me. So I took HOLD of him and we began to wrestle. We wrestled down one hill, UP another and DOWN another until we came to a creek. So I quick DUNKED him and BAPTIZED his hairy soul. And just like you said, he became as gentle as a lamb. We spent the rest of the week in Fellowship, and feasting on God's
Holy Word."
They both looked down at the rabbi, who was lying in a hospital bed. He was in a body cast and traction with IV's and monitors running in and out of him. He was in bad shape. The rabbi looks up and says, "You fellows don't even know what trouble is until you try to circumcise a bear."
Getting Old!!
A very elderly gentleman, (mid nineties) very well dressed, hair well groomed, great looking suit, flower in his lapel smelling slightly of a good after shave, presenting a well looked-after image, walks into an upscale cocktail lounge. Seated at the bar is an elderly looking lady, (mid eighties).
The gentleman walks over, sits alongside of her, orders a drink, takes a sip, turns to her and says, "So tell me, do I come here often?"
Getting Old
An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%.
The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect . Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again."
The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to the conversations. I've changed my will three times!"
Getting Old
Two elderly gentlemen from a retirement center were sitting on a bench under a tree when one turns to the other and says: "Slim, I'm 83 years old now and I'm just full of aches and pains.. I know you're about my age. How do you feel?"
Slim says, "I feel just like a new-born baby."
"Really!? Like a new-born baby!?"
"Yep. No hair, no teeth, and I think I just wet my pants.
Getting Old
An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.. The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, "Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly.
The other man said, "What is the name of the restaurant?"
The first man thought and thought and finally said, "What is the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know... the one that's red and has thorns."
"Do you mean a rose?"
"Yes, that's the one," replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, "Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?
Getting Old
Hospital regulations require a wheelchair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman--already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet--who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital.
After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator. On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.
"I don't know," he said. "She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown.

4 Thoughts............................
1- Zero Gravity
When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly
discovered that ball-point pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion developing a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside-down, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 300 C.
The Russians used a pencil.
Your taxes are due again -- enjoy paying them.
2 - Our 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.
3 - Ten Commandments
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a
Courthouse is that you cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal", "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shalt Not Lie" in a building Full of lawyers, judges and politicians! It creates a hostile work environment.

No, but I have a thing about urban legend presented as fact:
Quote[/b] ]NASA never asked Paul C. Fisher to produce a pen. When the astronauts began to fly, like the Russians, they used pencils, but the leads sometimes broke and became a hazard by floating in the [capsule's] atmosphere where there was no gravity. They could float into an eye or nose or cause a short in an electrical device. In addition, both the lead and the wood of the pencil could burn rapidly in the pure oxygen atmosphere. Paul Fisher realized the astronauts needed a safer and more dependable writing instrument, so in July 1965 he developed the pressurized ball pen, with its ink enclosed in a sealed, pressurized ink cartridge. Fisher sent the first samples to Dr. Robert Gilruth, Director of the Houston Space Center. The pens were all metal except for the ink, which had a flash point above 200°C. The sample Space Pens were thoroughly tested by NASA. They passed all the tests and have been used ever since on all manned space flights, American and Russian. All research and developement costs were paid by Paul Fisher. No development costs have ever been charged to the government.

Most customers walk into the Old Coffee Pot restaurant
in the French Quarter, read the menu and burst out laughing.
The restaurant on cobblestoned St. Peter Street has served up platters of sweet lost bread and savory jambalaya for more than a century. After Hurricane Katrina, the staff added an entree: "M.R.E.: A hurricane Katrina favorite. Please order early. FEMA needs 4-7 days to ship. $782.90."
Each time waiter Guy Wenson is asked about it, he stares at the customer and, with a twinkle in his blue eyes, replies, "For an extra $10, I'll peel back the wrapping and 'prepare' it for you at your tableside."
It's a cute one-liner, worth a smile and a wink.
Here, the gag has diners bursting into breath-stealing giggles.
In a city that mourns its dead with cheerful brass bands, where the Catholic cycle of Lenten penitence is ushered in with a drunken party, laughter has always been a part of life. Now, as a culture of gallows humor grows among storm survivors, residents are turning their misery into a punch line.
The gibes — sometimes grim, often silly — can be found everywhere.
Shops are selling out of refrigerator magnets in the shape of maggots, a nod to the insects that infested kitchens after Katrina. Drivers slap on bumper stickers proclaiming, "New Orleans: Proud to Swim Home." Residents smirk over T-shirts that read, "I Survived
Katrina and All I Have Is This Shirt … Really."
New Orleans' Audubon Zoo has outfitted its alligator exhibit with a mock swamp house, complete with a duct-tape-covered refrigerator, a box of military-issued Meals Ready to Eat, and a search-and-rescue sign that reads "8 Gators — fed." (Most houses in the city still carry markings of the block-by-block rescue effort, including neon-colored messages spray-painted on roofs and doors that stated what animals were found and whether they had been fed.)
Comedy clubs throughout the Gulf Coast say business is growing. Before the storm, comedians tested their material each Wednesday night at Lucy's Retired Surfers Bar and Restaurant in the city's warehouse district to a handful of patrons.
Now, a crowd of 40 is considered a slow night.
"You have to laugh, or you'll commit suicide," said co-host Bill Dykes, who runs stand-up events at different clubs here. "People are hungry for jokes."
It doesn't surprise comedian Dane Faucheux that an audience would howl even over jokes that simply play on words. After spending months living out of a suitcase, in a place without reliable power or phone service, many people long to giggle at someone else's harsh reality —
as well as their own.
On a recent Wednesday night at Lucy's, Faucheux stepped onto a plywood stage. He scanned the crowd inside the smoky downtown bar, calmly gauging the mood in the candle-lit room.
It was a motley crew, a cross section of those who refused to leave after Katrina, and those who arrived because of it. A building contractor slumped over his beer at one table. Nearby, a frazzled-looking emergency room nurse, weary from working back-to-back shifts,
sat next to a couple of bartenders.
Taking a deep breath, Faucheux, 27, launched into his shtick.
"So, I lost my apartment in the storm," he said. "I found it two streets away."
Gales of laughter and applause fill the room. Several people nodded their head in wry understanding. One woman shouted, "Me too!"
"I'm so glad my pain can make you laugh," Faucheux deadpanned. "You're all sick. Thank you very much."

Bill knocked on the door. A brass plaque read,
"Arthur Jackson, General Manager". A rich baritone
invited him in. As he entered the 18th-floor corner
office, a handsome man wearing his best Palm Springs
casuals strode forward.
"Thank you for coming, Bill." Art motioned to the
bar, waved at a plush chair, and took another beside
it. "As I indicated on the phone, I'm having a bit
of a musician problem. According to my bandleader,
their professionalism is being hijacked by the
costumes of the showgirls, and the music is less than
the perfection I demand at the Trinidad Club."
Bill outlined some ideas, they conversed for a while,
and he finally said, "Give me a computer and quiet
and I'll be back in a half-hour."
Thirty minutes later he was back. "I believe I've
solved your problem. I've put together an eighteen-
piece all-female orchestra. While nothing's guaranteed,
they're less likely to be distracted."
"That fast?" asked Art. "I'd heard you had connections
but I hadn't realized they were that good."
"No problem," replied Bill. "Amazing what you can do
these days with broadband access."
Four Jewish brothers left home for college and became successful doctors and lawyers, and prospered.
Some years later, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the gifts that they were going to give to their elderly mother, who lived in another city.
The first said, "I'm having a big house built for Mama."
The second said, "I'm having a hundred thousand dollar home theater built in the house."
The third said, "I'm having my Mercedes dealer deliver her an SL600 with a chauffeur.
The fourth said, "Listen to this. You know how Mama
loves the Torah and you know how she can't read anymore because she can't see very well.
Well, I met this Rabbi who told me about a parrot that can recite the entire Torah. It took ten rabbis 12 years to teach him. I had to pledge to contribute 100,000 a year for ten years to the temple, but it was worth it. Mama just has to name the chapter and verse and the parrot will recite it."
The other brothers were impressed.
Later, Mama sent out her thank you notes. She wrote:
Dear Milton, the house you built is so huge. I live in only one room, but have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway.
Dear Menachem, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound that can hold 50 people, but all my friends are dead, I've lost my hearing and I'm nearly blind. I'll never use it. But thank you for the gesture just the same.
Dear Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home, I have my groceries delivered, so I never use the Mercedes... and the driver you hired is a Nazi. But the thought was good. Thanks.
Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to give a little thought to your gift. The chicken was delicious.
Thank you,

A Senator, extremely pleased with a young office aide who performed his duties with enthusiasm and great dispatch, decided to reward the young man by taking him to one of the best restaurants in town. #
When they arrived at the restaurant they were dismayed to find every table occupied. #Seeing one large table only partially occupied, the Senator approached the three men seated there and asked if he and his aide could join them, to which they readily agreed. #
Introductions were made and soon the Senator began praising his aide to the three men who only a few moments ago had been perfect strangers.
“Why”, said the Senator, “This young man is amazing, he can instantly size up any person and as a matter of fact, by judging a persons mannerisms and bearing, he has the ability to determine which institute of high learning they graduated from.”
“Oh really”, said one of the seated men, his voice dripping with sarcasm, “I’d really like to see that”. #
“Certainly”, said the aide. #“First of all the man to your left is a graduate of MIT. #I know that because when he speaks he chooses his words carefully, his comments are mostly highly technical and the dead giveaway is the large scientific calculator he has in his jacket pocket.”
“The man to your right graduated with honors from Princeton. #He speaks concisely and clearly, using words not ordinarily used by the common man and I believe that the large valise beside him that is bulging with paper work contains a manuscript that he will soon publish.”
“You Sir, graduated from Berkeley”
“Well you’re right young man and that is indeed amazing, but you didn’t say how you knew I graduated from Berkeley. #Is it my bearing and grace? #My impeccable manners? #My keen knowledge of worldly events?
“No Sir, not really”, replied the aide, “I noticed your class ring when you picked your nose!”

He looks at the farmer who is selling the cow, then reaches under the cow to try again. He grabs another teat, pulls, and the cow farts again.
Milk does come out however, so after some discussion with the cow's current owner, Ole decides to buy the cow and take it home. When he gets back to Minnesota, he calls over his neighbor, Sven, and says, "Hey, Sven, come and look at dis here new cow I yust bought. Pull her teat, and see vat happens."

Be sure and cancel your credit cards before you die. This is so
priceless, and so easy to see happening, customer service (most in Bombay, India) being what it is today.
A lady died this past January, and Citibank billed her for
February and March for their annual service charges on her credit card,
and then added late fees and interest on the monthly charge. The balance
had been $0.00, now is somewhere around $60.00! A family member placed a
call to Citibank:
Family Member: "I am calling to tell you that she died in January."
Bank: "The account was never closed and the late fees and charges still
apply."
Family Member: "Maybe, you should turn it over to collections."
Bank: "Since it is two months past due, it already has been."
Family Member: So, what will they do when they find out she is dead?"
Bank: "Either report her account to the frauds division or report her to
the credit bureau, maybe both!"
Family Member: "Do you think God will be mad at her?"
Bank: "Excuse me?"
Family Member: "Did you just get what I was telling you - the part about
her being dead?"
Bank: "Sir, you'll have to speak to my supervisor."
Supervisor gets on the phone:
Family Member: "I'm calling to tell you, she died in January."
Bank: "The account was never closed and the late fees and charges still
apply."
Family Member: "You mean you want to collect from her estate?"
Bank: (Stammer) "Are you her lawyer?"
Family Member: "No, I'm her great nephew." (Lawyer info given)
Bank: "Could you fax us a certificate of death?"
Family Member: "Sure." (fax number is given)
After they get the fax:
Bank: "Our system just isn't set-up for death. I don't know what more I
can do to help."
Family Member: "Well, if you figure it out, ! great! If not, you
could just keep billing her. I don't think she will care."
Bank: "Well, the late fees and charges do still apply."
Family Member: "Would you like her new billing address?"
Bank: "That might help."
Family Member: "Odessa Memorial Cemetery, Highway 129, Plot Number 69."
Bank: "Sir, that's a cemetery!" !
Family Member: "What do you do with dead people on your planet?"

A beautiful young blonde woman was appearing in court to face a public disorder charge. When her name was called out in the court foyer, she brushed her hair, checked her make-up, took a deep breath, and walked into the court and took to the witness stand. The charges were read out, and she was asked how she pleaded.
"Not guilty," the blonde answered emphatically.
The prosecution council then approached the blond and said, "Is it true that on the 11th of December, last year, you committed acts of gross indecency with a one-legged dwarf who was waving a union jack on the roof of a car, whilst travelling at over 100 mph through the centre of London in a blizzard, and you were totally nude?"
The blonde composed herself, looked straight at the prosecution council and calmly said, "What was the date again?"

They called the stupid jerk "Wade Shoes" because he wore big spongy clown shoes while wading in pools, fountains, mud puddles and such, and then he would traipse all over people's papers or whatever they had on the ground. I saw a musician in the park writing words and music to a blues tune, with his papers scattered all around, and I can attest that it did no good for the musician to yell, "Don't step on my blues, Wade Shoes!"

A Greek and Italian were sitting in a Starbuck's one day discussing who had the superior culture. Over triple lattes the Greek guy says, "Well, we have the Parthenon."
Arching his eyebrows, the Italian replies, "We have the Coliseum."
The Greek retorts, "We Greeks gave birth to advanced mathematics."
The Italian, nodding agreement, says, "But we built the Roman Empire."
And so on and so on until the Greek comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion.
With a flourish of finality he says, "We invented sex!"

It was very windy, and she was only six years old and small for her age. When her mother asked her to clean off the front sidewalk, the wind nearly blew her away. She picked up the broom countless times, but each time, the wind got the best of her and knocked her over. Her mother came out a few minutes later to see how she was doing and found her stuffing rocks in her pocket. "I thought you were cleaning off the sidewalk," her mother said. "What in the world are you doing?" The child replied: "Now? I weigh me down to sweep."

Four Catholic women were sitting around sipping coffee.
The first woman said, “My son is a priest. Whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Good morning, Father’.”
The second woman said, “Well, my son is a Bishop, and whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Good morning, Your Grace’.”
The third woman said, “My son is a Cardinal, and when he walks into a room, everyone says, ‘Good morning, Your Eminence’.”
The fourth woman sat quietly, drinking her coffee, until the other three finally said, “Well, how about your son?”
She answered, “Well, my son is 6' 2", broad-shouldered, handsome, with dark hair and blue eyes, and whenever he walks into a room, the women all say, ‘Oh my God!’”

#"May I talk with her?"

#Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the

"Alaskan Christmas Party"
Tom had been in the liquor business for 25 years. Finally, sick of the stress, he quit his job and bought 50 acres of land in Alaska as far from humanity as possible. He saw the postman once a week and got groceries once a month. Otherwise, it was total peace and quiet.
After about six months of almost total isolation, someone knocked on his
door. He opened it and a huge, bearded man was standing there.
"Name's Lars, your neighbor from forty miles up the road. Having a Christmas party Friday night...thought you might like to come. About 5:00."
"Great", says Tom, "after six months out here I'm ready to meet some local folks. Thank you."
As Lars left, he stopped. "Gotta warn you......be some drinkin'."
"Not a problem" says Tom. "After 25 years in the business, I can drink with the best of 'em."
Again, the big man started to leave and stopped. "More 'n' likely gonna be some fightin', too."
"Well, I get along with people; I'll be all right. I'll be there. Thanks
again."
"More'n likely be some wild sex, too!"
"Now that's really not a problem," says Tom, warming to the idea. "I've been all alone for six months! I'll definitely be there. By the way, what should I wear?"
"Don't much matter ..... Just gonna be the two of us."

Visiting the lawyer
A guy from Czechslovakia was visiting his cousin the lawyer in California, and they went for a hike in Yellowstone Park.
While they were hiking they were attacked by 2 bears, one male and one female. The male bear dismembered and ate the Czechslovakian guy, but the lawyer managed to escape.
He ran straight to the nearest Rangers station, and told them what had happened, and they sent out a group of rangers to see what was going on.
Sure enough, the Rangers arrived at the place that the lawyer mentioned, and there were the female and the male bears. So one of the Rangers took his rifle and shot the female.
So the other Rangers asked "why did you shoot the female? he said that the male ate his friend" So the Ranger answers "Would you believe a lawyer if he told you that the Czech is in the male?"

OK.....it's old. #But it still cracks me up.
# #One day an Irishman who had been stranded on a deserted island for over 10 years, saw a speck on the horizon. He thought to himself, "It's certainly not a ship." And, as the speck got closer and closer, he began to rule out the possibilities of a small boat and even a raft. Suddenly there emerged from the surf a wet-suited black clad figure. Putting aside the scuba gear and mask, there stood a drop-dead gorgeous blonde.
#
# The glamorous blonde strode up to the stunned Irishman and said to him, #"Tell me, how long has it been since you've had a cigarette?"
# #"Ten years," replied the amazed Irishman. With that, she reached over and unzipped a waterproofed pocket on the left sleeve of her wet suit, and pulled out a fresh pack of cigarettes. #He takes one, lights it, and takes a long drag. "Faith and begorrah," said the man, "that is so good, I'd almost forgotten how great a smoke can be!"
#
# "And how long has it been since you've had a drop of good Irish whiskey?" asked the blonde.
# Trembling, the castaway replied, "Ten years."
# Hearing that, the blonde reaches over to her right sleeve, unzips a pocket there and removes a flask and hands it to him. He opened the flask and took a long drink. "'Tis nectar of the gods!" #stated the Irishman. "'Tis truly fantastic!" #
# #At this point the gorgeous blonde started to slowly unzip the long front of her wet suit, right down the middle. She looked at the trembling man and asked, "And how long has it been since you played around?"
# #With tears in his eyes, the Irishman fell to his knees and sobbed, "Sweet Jesus! #Don't tell me you've got golf clubs in there too!"

Suddenly she sneezes, and her glass eye comes flying out of its socket

to the dog's collar and the cat's testicles.
"Little Partner", the firefighter says, "I don't want to tell you how to run
your rig, but if you were to tie that rope around the cat's collar, I think
you could go faster."
The little girl replies thoughtfully, "You're probably right, but then I wouldn't have a siren."

After explaining about latitude, longitude, degrees and minutes the teacher asked, "Suppose I asked you to meet me for lunch at 23 degrees, 4 minutes north latitude and 45 degrees, 15 minutes east longitude...?"
After a confused silence, a voice volunteered, "I guess you'd be eating alone."

Start with a cage containing five monkeys. Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the banana. As soon as he touches the stairs, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water. After a while, another monkey makes an attempt with the same result, all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.
Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one. The new monkey sees the banana and wants to climb the stairs. To his surprise and horror, all of the other monkeys attack him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted.
Next, remove another of the original five monkeys and replace it with a new one. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment with enthusiasm! Likewise, replace a third original monkey with a new one, then a fourth, then the fifth.
Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked. Most of the monkeys that are beating him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs or why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey.
After replacing all the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, no monkey ever again approaches the stairs to try for the banana. Why not? Because as far as they know that's the way it's always been done around here.
And that, my friends, is how a company policy begins

The FBI had an opening for an assassin. After all the background checks,
interviews and testing were done there were 3 finalists.
Two men and a woman.
For the final test, the FBI agents took one of the
men to a large metal door and handed him a gun.
"We must know that you will follow your instructions no matter
what the circumstances. Inside the room you will find your wife
sitting in a chair.
Kill Her!!!"
"The man said, "You can't be serious, I could never shoot my wife"
The agent said, "Then you're not the right man for this job.
Take your wife and go home."
The second man was given the same instructions. He took the
gun and went into the room. All was quiet for about 5 minutes. The man
came out with tears in his eyes,
"I tried, but I can't kill my wife."
The agent said, "You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and go home."
Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same
instructions, to kill her husband.
She took the gun and went into the room.
Shots were heard, one after another. They heard screaming, crashing,
banging on the walls.
After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and
there stood the woman, She wiped the sweat from her brow.
"This gun is loaded with blanks" she said.
"I had to beat him to death with the chair."

The other man replies, "Well go ahead and ask her, don't be a chicken ****."
The man approaches the lovely woman and says, "Excuse me. Would you be so kind as to dance with me?"
Seeing the man is totally drunk the woman says, "I'm sorry. Right now I'm concentrating on matrimony and I'd rather sit than dance."
So the man humbly returns to his friend. "So what did she say?" asks the friend.
The drunk responded, "She said she's constipated on macaroni and would rather **** in her pants."

A blonde woman was speeding down the road in her little red sports car
and was pulled over by a woman police officer who was also a blonde.
The blonde cop asked to see the blonde driver's license. She dug through
her purse and was getting progressively more agitated.
"What does it look like?" she finally asked.
The policewoman replied, "It's square and it has your picture on it."
The driver finally found a square mirror, looked at it and handed it to
the policewoman. "Here it is," she said.
The blonde officer looked at the mirror, then handed it back saying,
"Okay, you can go. I didn't realize you were a cop."

Sex Frogs
A beautiful young Blonde lady, goes to her local pet store she notices a box full of frogs.
The sign says:
Sex Frogs! Only $20 each! comes with complete instructions
She whispers softly to the man behind the counter,"I'll take one."
The girl nods, grabs the box, and is quickly on her way home.
As soon as she closes the door to her apartment, the girl takes out the instructions and reads them thoroughly, doing exactly what it says to do:
1. Take a shower.
2. Splash on some nice smelling perfume.
She then quickly gets into bed with the frog!
Nothing happens! The girl is frustrated and quite upset.
She rereads the instructions and notices at the bottom of the paper it says,
Call pet store if it is not working.
So, the lady calls the pet store. The man says, "I had some complaints earlier today. I'll be right over."
Within five minutes, the pet shop owner is ringing her doorbell.
The girl welcomes him in and says, "I've done everything according to the instructions. The damn thing just sits there."
The man, looking very concerned, picks up the frog, stares directly into its eyes and sternly says:
"Listen to me! I'm only going to show you how to do this one more time."

Artifacts are a major portion of an American-Indian reser-
vation's economy. Annually, thousands of tourists visit reservations and most will not leave without purchasing at least one memento of the traditional Indian culture.
One enterprising Indian was able to outsell his competitors
in the sale of wooden dolls by selling them at only a fraction of the cost others had to charge. On examination of his dolls they found that where traditionally hard wood was used, this Indian would use cheap pine on which he glued thin pieces of fine mahogany, thus being able to produce the dolls at only a fraction of the cost.
While he claimed his dolls were still authentic, his com-
petitors complained that it was only a cheap Sioux Veneer.

In a crowded city at a busy bus stop, a beautiful young woman wearing a tight mini skirt was waiting for a bus. As the bus stopped and it was her turn to get on, she became aware that her skirt was too tight to allow her leg to come up to the height of the first step of the bus.
Slightly embarrassed and with a quick smile to the bus driver, she reached behind her to unzip her skirt a little, thinking that this would give her enough slack to raise her leg.
She tried to take the step, only to discover that she couldn't.
So, a little more embarrassed, she once again reached behind her to unzip her skirt a little more, and for the second time attempted the step.
Once again, much to her chagrin, she could not raise her leg. With a little smile to the driver, she again reached behind to unzip a little more and again was unable to take the step.
A bout this time, a large Texan who was standing behind her picked her up easily by the waist and placed her gently on the step of the bus.
She went ballistic and turned to the would-be Samaritan and yelled, "How dare you touch my body! I don't even know who you are!"
The Texan smiled and drawled, "Well, ma'am, normally I would agree with you, but after you unzipped my fly three times, I kind 'a figured we was friends."

John the farmer was in the fertilized egg business.
He had several hundred young layers (hens), called pullets and eight
or ten roosters, whose job was to fertilize the eggs.
The farmer kept records and any rooster that didn't perform went into
the soup pot and was replaced.
That took an awful lot of his time so he bought a set of tiny bells
and attached them to his roosters.
Each bell had a different tone so John could tell from a distance,
which rooster was performing.
Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report simply
by listening to the bells.
The farmer's favorite rooster was old Butch, a very fine specimen he
was, too. But on this particular morning John noticed old Butch's bell
hadn't rung at all!
John went to investigate.
The other roosters were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The pullets,
hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover.
But to Farmer John's amazement, Butch had his bell in his beak, so it
couldn't ring.
He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.
John was so proud of Butch, he entered him in the county fair and
Butch became an overnight sensation among the judges.
The result...
The judges not only awarded Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize" but they
also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well.
Clearly Butch was a politician in the making.
Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most
highly coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up
on the populace and scr*wing them when they weren't looking.

There's quite an art to falling apart as the years go by,
And life doesn't begin at 40. That's a big fat lie.
My hair's getting thinner, my body is not;
The few teeth I have are beginning to rot.
I smell of Vick's-Vapo-Rub, not Chanel # 5;
My new pacemaker's all that keeps me alive.
When asked of my past, every detail I'll know,
But what was I doing 10 minutes ago?
Well, you get the idea, what more can I say?
I'm off to read the obituary, like I do every day;
If my names not there, I'll once again start -
Perfecting the art of falling apart

When everybody on Earth was dead and waiting to enter Paradise, God appeared and said, "I want the men to make two lines, one line for the men who were true heads of their household, and the other line for the men who were dominated by their women. I want all the women to report to St. Peter."
Soon, the women were gone and there were two lines of men. The line of men who were dominated by their wives was
100 miles long, and in the line of men who truly were heads of their household, there was only one man.
God said, "You men should be ashamed of yourselves. I created you to be the head of your household! You have been disobedient and not fulfilled your purpose! Of all of you, only one obeyed. Learn from him."
God turned to the one man, "How did you manage to be the only one in this line?"
The man replied, "I don't know, my wife told me to stand here."

the Pope's hat (zucchetto) blows off his head and out into the water.

A man in Wales buys several sheep hoping to breed them for wool. After
several weeks, he notices that none of the sheep are getting pregnant and
phones a vet for help. The vet tells him that he should try artifical
insemination.
The farmer doesn't have the slightest idea what this means but, not
wanting to display his ignorance, only asks the vet how he will know when
the sheep are pregnant. The vet tells him that the sheep will stop
standing around and instead will lie down and wallow in the grass.
The man hangs up and gives it some thought. He comes to the conclusion
that artifical insemination means he has to impregnate the sheep himself.
So he loads the sheep into his Land Rover, drives them out into the woods,
has sex with them all, brings them back and goes to bed.
Next morning, he wakes and looks out at the sheep. Seeing they are all
still standing around, he deduces that the first try didn't take so loads
them in the Land Rover again. He drives them out to the woods, bangs each
sheep twice for good measure, brings them back and goes to bed exhausted.
Next morning, he wakes to find the sheep still just standing around.
"Try again" he tells himself and proceeds to load them up again, does his
thing, drives home and falls listlessly into bed.
The next morning, he cannot even raise himselffrom the bed to look out of
the window. He asks his wife to look and tell him if the sheep are lying
in the grass.
"No" she says "they're all in the Land Rover and one of them is beeping

No Nursing Home for Me
About 2 years ago my wife and I were on a cruise through the western Mediterranean aboard a Princess liner. At dinner we noticed an elderly lady sitting alone along the rail of the grand stairway in the main dining room. I also noticed that all the staff, ships officers, waiters, busboys, etc., all seemed very familiar with this lady. I asked our waiter who the lady was, expecting to be told that she owned the line,but he said he only knew that she had been on board for the last four cruises, back-to-back.
As we left the dining room one evening I caught her eye and stopped to say hello. We chatted and I said, "I understand you've been on this ship for the last four cruises". She replied, "Yes, that's true." I stated, "I don't understand" and she replied, without a pause, "It's cheaper than a nursing home".
So, there will be no nursing home in my future. When I get old and feeble, I am going to get on a Princess Cruise Ship. The average cost for a nursing home is $200 per day. I have checked on reservations on a Princess and I can get a long term discount and senior discount price of $135 per day. That leaves $65 a day for:
1. Gratuities which will only be $10 per day.
2. I will have as many as 10 meals a day if I can waddle to the restaurant, or I can have room service (which means I can have breakfast-in-bed every day of the week).
3. Princess has as many as three swimming pools, a workout room, free washers and dryers, and shows every night.
4. They have free toothpaste and razors, and free soap and shampoo.
5. They will even treat you like a customer, not a patient. An extra $5 worth of tips will have the entire staff scrambling to help you.
6. I will get to meet new people every 7 or 14 days.
7. T.V. broken? Light bulb need changing? Need to have the mattress replaced? No Problem! They will fix everything and apologize for your inconvenience.
8. Clean sheets and towels every day, and you don't even have to ask for them.
9. If you fall in the nursing home and break a hip you are on Medicare; if you fall and break a hip on the Princess ship they will upgrade you to a suite for the rest of your life.
Now hold on for the best! Do you want to see South America, the Panama Canal, Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, or name where you want to go?
Princess will have a ship ready to go. So don't look for me in a nursing home, just call shore to ship.
ps: And don't forget, when you die, they just dump you over the side -- at no charge.

***ENTERTAINING IN YOUR HOME ***
1. A centerpiece for the table should never be anything prepared by a taxidermist.
2. Do not allow the dog to eat at the table no matter how good his manners are.
***PERSONAL HYGIENE ***
1. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this is a job that should be done in private using one's OWN truck keys.
2. Proper use of toiletries can forestall bathing for several days, however, if you live alone, deodorant is just a waste of money.
3. Dirt and grease under the fingernails is a social no-no, as they tend to detract from a woman's jewelry and alter the taste of finger foods.
***DATING (Outside the Family) ***
1. Always offer to bait your date's hook, especially on the first date.
2. Be aggressive. Let her know you're interested: "I've been wanting to date you since I read that stuff on the bathroom wall.
3. Establish with her parents what time she is expected back. Some will say 10:00 PM; others might say "Monday." If the latter is the answer, it is man's responsibility to get her to school on time.
4. Always have a positive comment about your date's appearance such as, "y'all sure don't sweat much for a fat gal."
***WEDDINGS ***
1. Livestock, usually, is a poor choice for a wedding gift
2. Kissing the bride for more than 5 seconds may get you shot.
3. Though uncomfortable, say "yes" to socks and shoes for this special occasion.
5. It is not appropriate to tell the groom how nice his wife's ass is.
***DRIVING ETIQUETTE ***
1. Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles; even if the gun is loaded, and the deer is in sight.
2. When approaching a four-way stop, the vehicle with the largest tires always has the right of way.
3. Never tow another car using panty hose and duct tape.
4. When sending your wife down the road with a gas can, it is disrespectful to ask her to bring back beer.
5. Never relieve yourself from a moving vehicle, especially when driving.
6. Do not lay down rubber while in a funeral procession.
***TWO REASONS WHY IT IS HARD TO SOLVE A
REDNECK MURDER***
1. There are no dental records.
2. All the DNA is the same.

A Reform Rabbi was so compulsive a golfer that once, on Yom Kippur, he left the house early and went out for a quick nine holes by himself. An angel who happened to be looking on immediately notified his superiors that a grievous sin was being committed on earth. On the sixth hole, God caused a mighty wind to take the ball directly from the tee to the cup for a miraculous and dramatic hole in one.
The angel was horrified. "Lord!" he said, "you call this a punishment?!"
"Sure," answered God with a smile. "Who can he tell?"

Two women meet in the afterlife:
1st woman: Hi! My name is Wanda.
2nd woman: Hi! I'm Sylvia. How did you die?
1st woman: I froze to death.
2nd woman: How horrible!
1st woman: It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I
began to get warm and sleepy and finally had a peaceful death. What about you?
2nd woman: I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my
husband was cheating on me, so I came home early to catch him in the act. But
instead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV.
1st woman: So what happened?
2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman in the house
somewhere that I started running all over the house looking for her. I ran up to
the attic and searched. I ran down to the basement and searched.
Then I went through every closet and checked under all of the beds. I
kept this up until I had looked everywhere, and finally I became so
exhausted that I just keeled over with a heart attack and died.
1st woman: Too bad you didn't look in the freezer. We'd both still be alive.

I love my job, I love the pay!
I love it more and more each day.
I love my boss, he is the best!
I love his boss and all the rest.
I love my office and its location,
I hate to have to go on vacation.
I love my furniture, drab and gray,
And piles of paper that grow each day!
I think my job is really swell,
There's nothing else I love so well.
I love to work among my peers,
I love their leers, and jeers, and sneers.
I love my computer and its software;
I hug it often though it won't care.
I love each program and every file.
I'd love them more if they worked a while.
I'm happy to be here. I am. I am.
I'm the happiest slave of the Firm, I am.
I love this work, I love these chores.
I love the meetings with deadly bores.
I love my job - I'll say it again -
I even love those friendly men.
Those friendly men who've come today,
In clean white coats to take me away!

Subject: New Englanders
Forget Rednecks ... here's what Jeff Foxworthy has to say on New Englanders:
If you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through 36 inches of ice and sitting there all day hoping it will swim by, you might live in New England.
If you're proud that your region makes the national news 96 nights each year because Mt. Washington is the coldest spot in the nation, and Boston gets more snow than any other majority in the US, you live in New England.
If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September through May, you live in New England.
If the term Bar-B-Q refers to any meal eaten in the back yard & not a method of cooking pork, you live in New England.
If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance, and they don't work there, you live in New England.
If you've worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you live in New England.
If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you live in New England.
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A NEW ENGLANDER WHEN:
"Vacation" means going anywhere south of New York City for the weekend.
You measure distance in hours.
You know several people who have hit a deer more than once.
You have switched from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day, and back again.
You can drive 65 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching.
You install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both unlocked.
You carry jumper cables in your car and your girlfriend/wife knows how to use them.
You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow.
You know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter, and road construction.
Your idea of creative landscaping is a statue of a deer next to your blue spruce.
"Down South" to you means Philadelphia.
Your neighbor throws a party to celebrate his new shed.
Your 4th of July picnic was moved indoors due to frost.
You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.
You find 10 degrees "a little chilly."
You actually understand these jokes, and forward them to all your New England friends.

Ancient and funny:
A big-game hunter went on safari with his wife and mother-in- law. One evening, while still deep in the jungle, the Mrs awoke to find her mother gone. Rushing to her husband, she insisted on them both trying to find her mother.
The hunter picked up his rifle, took a swig of whiskey, and started to look for her. In a clearing not far from the camp, they came upon a chilling sight: the mother-in-law was backed up against a thick, impenetrable bush, and a large male lion stood facing her.
The wife cried, "What are we going to do?"
"Nothing," said the hunter husband. "The lion got himself into this mess, let him get himself out of it."
