Policeman in Downing Street

On 4th July 2010 an old man approached Downing Street . He spoke to the policeman standing guard and said, "I would like to go in and meet with Mr Brown."

The policeman looked at the man and said, "Sir, Mr. Brown is no longer prime minister and no longer resides here."

The old man said, "Okay", and walked away.

The following day, the same man approached Downing Street and said to the same policeman, "I would like to go in and meet with Mr Brown."

The policeman again told the man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Brown is no longer prime minister and no longer resides here."

The man thanked him and, again, just walked away.

Yesterday, the same man approached Downing Street and spoke to the very same policeman, saying "I would like to go in and meet with Mr Brown."

The policeman, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Brown. I've told you already that Mr. Brown is no longer prime minister and no longer resides here. Don't you understand?"

The old man looked at the policeman and said, "Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it."

The policeman snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "See you tomorrow, Sir."

ALZHEIMERS'  EYE TEST


Count every  "  F " in  the following text:



FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY

COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...  






HOW  MANY ?










WRONG,  THERE ARE
  6  -- no  joke.


READ IT AGAIN !


Really, go Back and Try to find  the 6 F's before you scroll down.


The reasoning behind is further down.



The  brain cannot process "OF".



Incredible  or what? Go back and look again!!


Anyone who  counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a  genius.


Three  is normal, four is quite rare.


 

2010 Darwin Awards

Sad but true --

YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THEM WITH BATED BREATH, SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO HERE ARE THE 2010 DARWIN AWARDS AS OF TODAY.

 8th Place

 In Detroit, a 41-year-old man got stuck and drowned in two feet of water after squeezing head first through an 18-inch-wide sewer grate to  retrieve his car  keys.

 7th  Place

 A 49-year-old San Francisco stockbroker, who "totally zoned when he ran", accidentally, jogged off a 100-foot high cliff on his daily run.

 6th Place

 While at the beach, Daniel Jones, 21, dug an 8 foot hole for protection from the wind and had been sitting in a beach chair at the bottom, when it collapsed, burying him beneath 5 feet of  sand. People on the beach used their hands and shovels trying to get him out but could not reach him in time.

 It took rescue workers using heavy equipment almost an hour to free him.

 Jones was pronounced dead at a hospital.

 5th Place

 Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed as he fell through the ceiling of a bicycle shop he was robbing. Death was caused when the long flashlight he had placed in his mouth to keep his hands free, rammed into the base of his skull as he hit the floor.

 4th Place

 Sylvester Briddell, Jr., 26, was killed as he won a bet with friends who said he would not  put a revolver loaded with four bullets into his mouth and pull the  trigger.

 3rd  Place

 After walking around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door, a man walked into H&J Leather & Firearms intent on robbing the store. The shop was full of customers and a uniformed officer was standing at the counter. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up and fired a few wild shots from a target pistol. The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire and several customers also drew their guns and fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47 expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from seven different weapons. No one else was hurt.

 HONOURABLE MENTION

 Paul Stiller, 47, and his wife Bonnie were bored just driving around at 2:00 a.m. So they lit a stick of dynamite to toss out the window to see what would happen. Apparently they failed to notice the window was closed.

 RUNNER UP

 Kerry Bingham had been drinking with several friends when one of them said they knew a person who had bungee-jumped from a local bridge in the middle of traffic. The conversation grew more heated and at least 10 men trooped along the walkway of the bridge at 4:30 a.m. Upon arrival at the midpoint of the bridge they discovered that no one had brought a bungee rope.

 Bingham, who had continued drinking, volunteered and pointed out that a coil of lineman's cable lay nearby. They secured one end around Bingham's leg and then tied the other end to the bridge. His fall lasted 40 feet before the cable tightened and tore his foot off at the ankle. He miraculously survived his fall into the icy water and was rescued by two nearby fishermen. Bingham's foot was never located.

 AND THE WINNER IS...

 Zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt, Paderborn, Germany fed his constipated elephant 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally got relief. Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded. The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock as the elephant continued to evacuate 200 pounds of dung on top of him. It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that proves....'shit happens'.

IT ALWAYS SEEMS IMPORTANT TO THANK THESE PEOPLE FOR REMOVING THEMSELVES FROM THE GENE POOL!

One born every minute!

In Honour of Stupid People . . .

On Sainsbury's peanuts --
'Warning: contains nuts.'
(talk about a news flash)


=========================== 
 

On Boot's Children Cough Medicine --

this medication.'

(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we
could just get those 5 year-olds with head-colds off those bulldozers.)


==========================

On Marks &Spencer Bread Pudding --

'Product will be hot after heating.'
(...and you thought????...)

Do not use while sleeping.

You could be a winner! No purchase necessary.
Details inside.
(the shoplifter special?)


===========================

==============================

On Nytol Sleep Aid --

'Warning: May cause drowsiness.'
(..I'm taking this because???.....)


==============================

On most brands of Christmas lights --

'For indoor or outdoor use only.'
(as opposed to what?)


==========================

On a Japanese food processor --

'Not to be used for the other use.'
(now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)


==============================

On an American Airlines packet of nuts --
'Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts.'
(Step 3: say what?)



===========================


On a child's Superman costume --
'Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.'
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)


========================

On a Swedish Chainsaw --
'Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals.'
(Oh my God..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

GYNAECOLOGIST

A middle-aged woman seemed very

sheepish as she visited her gynaecologist.

 

'Come now,' coaxed the doctor,'you've
 
 been seeing me for years. There's nothing
 
 you can't tell me.'
 
 
'This one's kind of strange...'
 
 
'Let me be the judge of that,' The doctor
 
 
replied.


'Well,' she said, 'yesterday I went to the
 
 
bathroom in the morning and heard a plink-plink-
 
 
plink in the toilet and when I looked down, the
 
 
water was full of pennies.'

 
 
'I see.'

 


 'That afternoon I went to the bathroom

 

 again and, plink-plink-plink, there were

 

 some 2p's in the bowl.'

'That night,' she went on, 'I went

 

again,plink-plink-plink, and there were 5p's

 

 and this morning there were 10p's


You've got to tell me what's wrong with

 me!' she implored.

 

'I'm scared out of my wits!'



The gynaecologist put a comforting hand on her
 
 
shoulder.

 


 

'There, there, it's nothing to be scared about.'
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
'You're simply going through the change!

 

Rude Customers!

For all Employees Who Work with Rude Customers - An award should go to the Westjet Airline gate attendant in Kelowna, British Columbia, for being smart and funny, while making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as cargo.

A crowded  flight was cancelled after Westjet's 767s had been withdrawn from service.

A single  attendant was re-booking a long line of inconvenienced travellers. Suddenly an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk.. He slapped his ticket down on the counter and said, "I HAVE  to be on this flight and it HAS to be FIRST  CLASS".

The  attendant replied, "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these people first, and I'm sure we'll be able  to work something out."

The  passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear, "DO  YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?"

Without  hesitating, the attendant smiled and grabbed her public address microphone: "May I have your  attention please; may I have you attention please, " she began - her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal.

"We have a passenger here at Gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him find his identity, please come to Gate 14."

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the attendant, gritted his teeth, and said, "F...You!"

Without  flinching, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to get in line for that too." 

 

Qantas Airlines: Repair Division


Remember, it takes a college degree to fly a plane but only a high school diploma to fix one.

After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form, called a 'Gripe Sheet' which tells mechanics about problems
 
 with the aircraft.

The mechanics correct the problems; document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the Gripe
 
 Sheets before the next flight.

Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humour.

Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by Qantas' pilots (marked with a P) and the
 
 solutions recorded (marked with an S) by maintenance engineers.

By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that has never, ever, had an accident.


P: Left inside main tyre almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tyre.

P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft..

P: Something loose in cockpit.
S: Something tightened in cockpit.

P: Dead bugs on windshield.
S: Live bugs on back-order.

P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute descent.

Old Blind Cowboy

An old blind cowboy wanders into an all-girl biker bar by mistake.

He finds his way to a bar stool and orders some coffee. 
After sitting there for a while, he yells to the waiter, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?"

The bar immediately falls absolutely silent.

In a very deep husky voice, the woman next to him says: 
"Before you tell that joke, Cowboy, I think it is only fair that, given you are blind, you should
 know five things:

1. The bartender is a blonde girl with a baseball bat.
2. The bouncer is a blonde girl.
3. I'm a 6-foot tall, 175-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate.
4. The woman sitting next to me is blonde and a professional weightlifter.
5. The lady to your right is blonde and a professional wrestler.

"Now, think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?"

The blind cowboy thinks for a second, shakes his head and mutters:

"Nah...........not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times."................................................

 

The Attorney!

An attorney  arrived home late, after a very tough day trying to get a stay of  execution. His last minute plea for  clemency to the governor had failed and he was feeling worn out and  depressed.

As  soon as he walked through the door at home, his wife started on at him about, 'What time of night to be getting home is this? Where have you been?  Dinner is cold  and I'm not reheating it'. And on and on and on and on.........

Too shattered to play his usual role in this  familiar ritual, he poured himself a shot of whiskey and headed off for a long  hot soak in the bathtub, pursued by the predictable sarcastic remarks as he  dragged himself up the stairs....

While  he was in the bath, the phone rang. The wife answered and was told that her  husband's client,  James  Wright, had been  granted a stay of execution after all. Wright would not be hanged tonight .  Finally realizing what a terrible day he must have had, she decided to go  up stairs and give him the good news.

As she opened the bathroom door, she was greeted by the sight of her husband, bent over naked, drying his legs and feet. 

“They're not hanging Wright tonight,”' she said.

He whirled around and screamed, “FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WOMAN, DON'T YOU EVER STOP?!”

 

CHELTENHAM RACES!

A group of primary school infants, accompanied by two
female teachers, went on a field trip to Cheltenham races
to see and learn about thoroughbred horses.
 
When it was time to take the children to the toilet, it was
decided that the girls would go with one teacher and the
boys would go with the other.
        
The teacher assigned to the boys was waiting outside the
men's toilet when one of the boys came out and told her
that none of them could reach the urinal.

 

Having no choice, she went inside, helped the boys with
their pants, and began hoisting the boys up, one by one,
holding their willies to direct the flow away from their 
clothes.

 

As she lifted one, she couldn't help but notice that he   
was unusually well endowed Trying not to show that she was  
staring, the teacher said, 'You must be in year four....  
in Miss Atkinson's class?'

 

'No, madam,' he replied. 'I'm riding Silver Arrow in the 2.15.'   
 

AGEISM...

"Always remember not to take this thing called life too seriously; after all, do you know of anyone who has survived it?"

 

Someone
had to remind me,
so I'm
reminding
you, too.
Don’t laugh......  

 


It is all true!
 Perks of reaching
50
or being over
60
And heading
towards
70!

 


1.
Kidnappers
are not very
interested in you.

 


2.
In a hostage situation,
you are likely to be
released first.  

 


3.
No one expects
you to run --
anywhere.

 


4.
People call at 9 PM
and ask,
'Did I wake you?'

You quit trying
to hold
your stomach in
no matter who walks
into the room.  

 


13.
You sing along
with elevator music.

 


14.
Your eyes
won't get
much worse.

 


15.
Your investment
in health insurance
is finally beginning
to pay off.

 


16.
Your joints are more accurate meteorologists
than the national
weather service.

 


17.
Your secrets are safe
with your friends
because they can't
remember them either.

 


18.
Your supply of brain cells
is finally down to
a manageable size.  

 


19.
You can't remember
who sent you this list.

 


And you notice
these are all
in big print
for your convenience.  

 


Forward this
to everyone
you can remember
right now!

 


ONE MORE THING:

 


Never,
under any circumstances,
take a sleeping pill,
and a laxative on
the same night!

 


 

 

 

 

 

THIS IS ALARMING...

Beer contains female hormones! Yes, that's right, FEMALE hormones!

Last month, April 2009, Sydney University and scientists released the results

of a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer.
Men should take a concerned look at their beer consumption.
The theory is that beer contains female hormones (hops contain oestrogen)
, and that by drinking enough beer, men turn into women.

To test the theory, 100 men each drank 8 schooners of beer within a one (1) hour period.

It was then observed that 100% of the test subjects, yes, 100% of all these men
: -


1) Argued over nothing,

2) refused to apologize when obviously wrong,

3) gained weight,

4) talked excessively without making sense,

5) became overly emotional,

6) couldn’t drive,

7) failed to think rationally, and

8) had to sit down while urinating.

No further testing was considered necessary!!


WARNING!

If you receive an email from the Department of Health telling you not to eat tinned pork because of Swine Flu. 

 
Ignore it . . .

BLONDE GUY JOKE

The very first ever Blonde GUY joke..... And well worth the wait!!!

 

An Irishman, a Mexican and a Blonde Guy were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building.  

They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, 'Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch, I'm going to jump off this building.'

The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, 'Burritos again! If I get burritos one more time I'm going to jump off, too.' 

The blonde opened his lunch and said,  

'Bologna again! If I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I'm jumping too.' 

The next day, the Irishman opened his lunch box, saw corned beef and cabbage, and jumped to his death. 

The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a burrito, and jumped, too.

The blonde guy opened his lunch, saw the bologna and jumped to his death as well.  

At the joint funeral, the Irishman's wife was weeping.  She said, 'If I'd known how really tired he was of corned beef and cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!' 

The Mexican's wife also wept and said, 'I could have given him tacos or enchiladas! I didn't realize he hated burritos so much.'  

Everyone turned and stared at the blonde's wife. The blonde's wife said, 

'Don't look at me. He makes his own lunch.'


 

 

 


 
 

 

 

 

4 WORMS CHURCH SERMON

 

For those of you who missed church on Sunday, here is a recap!

 

Four worms and a lesson to be learned!!!!

A minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon.

Four worms were placed into four separate jars.

The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.

The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke.

The third worm was put into a container of chocolate syrup.

The fourth worm was put into a container of good clean soil.

At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the following results:

The first worm in alcohol - Dead 

The second worm in cigarette smoke -Dead

Third worm in chocolate syrup - Dead 


 Fourth worm in good clean soil - Alive.

So the Minister asked the congregation -

 

What did you learn from this demonstration???

Maxine was sitting in the back, quickly raised her hand and said,

 

 

 

'As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won't have worms!'

That pretty much ended the service  .....

There's always one. This has got to be one of the funniest things in a long

time. I think this guy should have been promoted, not fired. This is a true

story from the Word Perfect Help line, which was transcribed from a

recording monitoring the customer care department. Needless to say

the Help Desk employee was fired; however, s/he is currently suing the

Word Perfect organization for 'Termination without Cause'.  Actual

dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee.

(Now I know why they record these conversations!):

Operator:         'Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?'
Caller:              'Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect.'
Operator:         'What sort of trouble??'

words went away.'
Operator:         'Went away?'
Caller:              'They disappeared.'
Operator:         'Hmm So what does your screen look like now?'
Caller:              'Nothing.'
Operator:         'Nothing??'
Caller:              'It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type.'
Operator:         'Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out??'
Caller:              'How do I tell?'
Operator:         'Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??'
Caller:              'What's a sea-prompt?'
Operator:         'Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?'
Caller:              'There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything

I type.'
Operator:         'Does your monitor have a power indicator??'
Caller:              'What's a monitor?'
Operator:         'It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV.

Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??'
Caller:               'I don't know.'
Operator:          'Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find

where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??'
Caller:              'Yes, I think so.'
Operator:         'Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's

plugged into the wall.
Caller:              'Yes, it is.'
Operator:         'When you were behind the monitor, did you notice

that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??'
Caller:               'No.'
Operator:          'Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and

find the other cable.'
Caller:               'Okay, here it is.'
Operator:          'Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into

the back of your computer.'
Caller:               'I can't reach.'
Operator:          'Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is??'
Caller:               'No.'
Operator:          'Even if you maybe put your knee on something and

lean way over??'
Caller:               'Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's

because it's dark.'
Operator:          'Dark??'
Caller:               'Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is

coming in from the window.
Operator:         'Well, turn on the office light then.'
Caller:               'I can't.'
Operator:          'No? Why not??'
Caller:               'Because there's a power failure.'
Operator:          'A power......... A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got

it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing

stuff your computer came in??'
Caller:               'Well, yes, I keep them in the closet.'
Operator:           'Good. Go get them, unplug your system and pack it up,

just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought

it from.'
Caller:                'Really? Is it that bad?'
Operator:            'Yes, I'm afraid it is.'
Caller:                 'Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??'
Operator:            'Tell them you're too flipping stupid to own a computer!!!!!'

Gift From Heaven!

A man on his Harley was riding along a California beach when suddenly the sky clouded

 above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said,

'Because you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish.'

The biker pulled over and said, 'Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can ride over anytime I

want.'

The Lord said, 'Your request is materialistic, think of the enormous
challenges for that

kind of undertaking; the supports required reaching  the  bottom of the Pacific and the

concrete and steel it would take! I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your

desire for worldly things. Take a  little more time and think of something that could

possibly help man kind.'

The biker thought about it for a long time. Finally, he said, 'Lord, I  wish  that I and

all men could understand women; I want to know how she feels inside, what she's

thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she cries, what she means when

she says nothing's wrong, why she snaps and complains when I try to help, and how I

can make a woman truly happy.'

The Lord replied, 'You want two lanes or four on that bridge?" 

 

Australian Crocodile!

A rich man living in Darwin, Australia decided that he wanted to throw a party and invited all of his buddies and neighbours.

He also invited Colin, the only aborigine in the neighbourhood.He held the party around the pool in the backyard of his Mansion.


Everyone was having a good time drinking, dancing, eating prawns, oysters and BBQ and flirting. At the height of the party, the host said, 'I have a 15ft man-eating crocodile in my pool and I'll give a million dollars to anyone who has the balls to jump in..'

The words were barely out of his mouth when there was a loud splash and everyone turned around and saw Colin in the pool fighting the croc and kicking its ass, jabbing the croc in the eyes with his thumbs, throwing punches, doing all kinds of stuff, like head butts and chokeholds, biting the croc on the tail. And flipping the croc through the air like some kind of Judo Instructor.


The water was churning and splashing everywhere. Both Colin and the croc were screaming and raising hell. Finally Colin strangled the croc and let it float to the top like a Goldfish. Colin then slowly climbed out of the pool. Everybody was just staring at him in disbelief.

Finally the host says, 'Well, Colin, I reckon I owe you a million dollars.'


'Nah, you all right boss, I don't want it,' said Colin.
The rich man said, 'Man, I have to give you something. You won the bet. How about half a million bucks then?'
'No thanks. I don't want it,' answered Colin.
The host said, 'Come on, I insist on giving you something. That was amazing.How about a new Porsche and a Rolex and some stock options?'

Again, Colin said no.

Confused, the rich man asked, 'Well Colin, then what do you Want?'

Colin said, 'I want the b****** who pushed me in the Pool.'

 

Always Wear Clean Underwear In Public!

Always wear clean underwear in public, especially when working under your vehicle.

From the news comes this story of a Leicester couple who drove their car to ASDA, only to have their car break down in the car park. The man told his wife to carry on with the shopping while he fixed the car.

The wife returned later to see a small group of people near the car.

On closer inspection, she saw a pair of hairy legs protruding from under the chassis.
Unfortunately although the man was in shorts, his lack of underpants turned his private parts
into glaringly public ones.

Unable to stand the embarrassment, she dutifully stepped forward,quickly put her hand up his shorts and tucked everything back into place.

On regaining her feet, she looked across the bonnet and found herself staring at her husband who was standing idly by.

The AA mechanic, however, had to have three stitches in his forehead.

 

 A Few Jokes To Brighten Your Day!

 

The Lost Luggage
An Irishman arrived at J.F.K. Airport and wandered
around the terminal with tears streaming down his cheeks.
An airline employee asked him if he was already homesick.
"No," replied the Irishman.
"I've lost all me luggage!"
"How'd that happen?"
"The cork fell out!"  said the Irishman.

 ***********************************************

Water to wine
An Irish priest is driving down to New York
and gets stopped for speeding.
The state trooper smells alcohol on the priest's breath
and then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car.

 

He says, "Sir, have you been drinking?"
"Just water," says the priest.
The trooper says, "Then why do I smell wine?"
The priest looks at the bottle and says,
"Good Lord! He's done it again!"
***********************************************
The Brothel
Two Irishmen were sitting in a pub having beer
and watching the brothel across the street.
They saw a Baptist minister walk into the brothel,
and one of them said,
"Aye, 'tis a shame to see a man of the cloth goin' bad."
Then they saw a Rabbi enter the brothel,
and the other Irishman said,
"Aye, 'tis a shame to see that the Jews
are falling' victim to temptation."
Then they saw a Catholic priest enter the brothel,
and one of the Irishmen said,
"What a terrible pity...
one of the girls must be quite ill."
***********************************************
Lost at Sea
Two Irishmen, Pat & Mike
were adrift in a lifeboat following a dramatic escape
from a burning freighter.
While rummaging through the boat's provisions,
Pat stumbled across an old lamp.
Secretly hoping that a genie would appear,
he rubbed the lamp vigorously.
To the amazement of Pat, a genie came forth...
This particular genie, however,
stated that he could only deliver one wish,
not the standard three.
Without giving much thought to the matter,
Pat blurted out,
"Make the entire ocean into Guinness Beer!"
The genie clapped his hands with a deafening crash,
and immediately the entire sea turned into
the finest brew ever sampled by mortals.
Simultaneously, the genie vanished.
Only the gentle lapping of Guinness on the hull
broke the stillness as the two men considered their circumstances.
Mike looked disgustedly at Pat
whose wish had been granted.
After a long, tension-filled moment, he spoke:
"Nice going Pat!
Now we're going to have to pee in the boat!

 

(And saving the best for last...) 

 

You've Been Drinking Again
An Irishman had been drinking at a pub all night.
The bartender finally said that the bar was closing.

 

So, the Irishman stood up to leave fell flat on his face.
He tried to stand one more time; same result.
He figured he'll crawl outside and get some fresh air
and maybe that will sober him up.

 

Once outside, he stood up and fell on his face again.
So he decided to crawl the four blocks home.
Again, he fell flat on his face.
He crawled through the door and into his bedroom.
When he reached his bed he tried one more time to stand up.
This time he managed to pull himself upright,
but he quickly fell right into the bed and is sound asleep
as soon as his head hit the pillow.

 

He was awakened the next morning
to his wife standing over him, shouting,
"SO YOU'VE BEEN DRINKING AGAIN!"

 

Putting on an innocent look,
and intent on bluffing it out he said,
"What makes you say that?"
"The pub just called;
you left your wheelchair there again."



 

 

 

 

 

 
 
"Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting..... Holy Shxx...what a ride!"

 

This is what marriage is all about...

He ordered one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.

He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them. As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them kept looking over and whispering. You could tell they were thinking, 'That poor

 old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.'

As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said they were just fine - They were used to sharing everything.

The surrounding people noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink.

Again the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.'

As the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, the young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asked 'What is it you're waiting for?'

She answered . . . . .

Cherie Blair's Chauffeur...

Cherie Blair is touring the countryside in a chauffeur-driven car.

Suddenly, a cow jumps out into the road, they hit it full on and the car comes to a stop.

Cherie, in her usual charming manner, says to the chauffeur:

'You get out and check - you were driving.'

The chauffeur gets out, checks and reports that the animal is dead.

'You were driving; go and tell the farmer,' says Cherie.

Five hours later, the chauffeur returns totally plastered, hair ruffled with a big grin on his face.

'My god, what happened to you?' asks Cherie.

The chauffeur replies: 'When I got there, the farmer opened his best bottle of malt whisky, the wife gave me a slap-up meal and the daughter made love to me.'

'What on earth did you say?' asks Cherie.

'I knocked on the door, and when it was answered, I said to them: I'm Cherie Blair's chauffeur and I've just killed the cow.'

 

BUILDING SITE

An Italian, a Scotsman and a Chinese man are hired at a Construction Site!

The foreman points out a huge pile of sand.

He says to the Italian guy; "You're in charge of sweeping."

To the Scotsman he says: "You're in charge of shovelling."

And to the Chinese guy: "You're in charge of supplies."

He then says; "Now, I have to leave for a little while. I expect you men to make a dent in that pile of sand."

So when the foreman returns after being away for a couple of hours the pile of sand is untouched.

He asks the Italian; "Why didn't you sweep any of it?"

The Italian replies; "I hava no broom. You saida to the Chinesea fella that he a wasa ina charge of supplies, but he hasa disappeared and I no coulda finda him nowhere."

Then the foreman turns to the Scotsman and says; "And you, I thought I told you to shovel this pile."

The Scotsman replies: "Aye, that ye did laddie, boot ah could nae get meself a shoovel. Ye left th' Chinese gadgie in chairge of supplies, boot ah couldna fin' him neither."

The foreman is really angry now. He storms off toward the pile of sand to look for the Chinese gent.

Just then, the Chinese man leaps out from behind the pile of sand and yells; "SUPPLIES!!!"

There's always one. This has got to be one of the funniest things in a

long time. I think this guy should have been promoted, not fired.

This is a true story from the Word Perfect Help line, which was

transcribed from a recording monitoring

the customer care department. Needless to say the Help Desk

employee was fired; however, s/he is currently suing the Word

Perfect organization for 'Termination without Cause'.  Actual dialogue

of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee.

(Now I know why they record these conversations!):

Operator:         'Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?'
Caller:              'Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect.'
Operator:         'What sort of trouble??'

the words went away.'
Operator:         'Went away?'
Caller:              'They disappeared.'
Operator:         'Hmm So what does your screen look like now?'
Caller:              'Nothing.'
Operator:         'Nothing??'
Caller:              'It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type.'
Operator:         'Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out??'
Caller:              'How do I tell?'
Operator:         'Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??'
Caller:              'What's a sea-prompt?'
Operator:         'Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?'
Caller:              'There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything

I type.'
Operator:         'Does your monitor have a power indicator??'
Caller:              'What's a monitor?'
Operator:         'It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV.

Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??'
Caller:               'I don't know.'
Operator:          'Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where

Caller:              'Yes, I think so.'
Operator:         'Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's

plugged into the wall.
Caller:              'Yes, it is.'
Operator:         'When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that

there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??'

Caller:               'No.'
Operator:          'Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean

way over??'
Caller:               'Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's

because it's dark.'
Operator:          'Dark??'
Caller:               'Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is

 coming in from the window.
Operator:         'Well, turn on the office light then.'
Caller:               'I can't.'
Operator:          'No? Why not??'
Caller:               'Because there's a power failure.'
Operator:          'A power......... A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it

your computer came in??'
Caller:               'Well, yes, I keep them in the closet.'
