A
pretty little girl named Suzy was standing on the sidewalk in front of her
home. Next to her was a basket containing a number of tiny creatures; in her
hand was a sign announcing FREE KITTENS.
Suddenly a line of big black cars pulled up beside her. Out of the lead car
stepped a tall, grinning man.
"Hi there, little girl, I'm President Obama. What do you have in the
basket?" he asked.
"Kittens," little Suzy said.
"How old are they?" asked Obama.
Suzy replied, "They're so young, their eyes aren't even open yet."
"And what kind of kittens are they?"
"Democrats," answered Suzy with a smile.
Obama was delighted. As soon as he returned to his car, he called his PR chief
and told him about the little girl and the kittens.
Recognizing the perfect photo op, the two men agreed that the president should
return the next day, and, in front of the assembled media, have the girl talk
about her discerning kittens.
So the next day, Suzy was again standing on the sidewalk with her basket of
"FREE KITTENS" when another motorcade pulled up, this time followed
by vans from ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN.
Cameras and audio equipment were quickly set up, then Obama got out of his limo
and walked over to little Suzy.
"Hello, again," he said, "I'd love it if you would tell all my
friends out there what kind of kittens you're giving away."
"Yes sir," Suzy said. "They're Republicans."
Taken by surprise, the president stammered, "But... but... yesterday, you
told me they were DEMOCRATS."
Little Suzy smiled and said, "I know. But today, they have their eyes
open."
The liberals are
asking us to give Obama time.
We agree and think 25 to life would be appropriate.

A father watched his young daughter playing in
the garden. He smiled as he reflected on how sweet and pure his little girl
was. Tears formed in his eyes as he thought about her seeing the wonders of
nature through such innocent eyes. Suddenly she just stopped and stared
at the ground.
He went over to her to see what work of God had captured her attention.
He noticed she was looking at two spiders
mating.
'Daddy, what are those two spiders doing?' she asked.
'They're mating,' her father replied.
'What do you call the spider on top?' she asked.
'That's a Daddy Longlegs,' her father answered.
'So,
the other one is a Mommy Longlegs?' the little girl asked.
As his heart soared with the joy of such a cute and innocent question he
replied, 'No dear. Both of them are Daddy Longlegs.'
' The little girl, looking a
little puzzled, thought for a moment, then lifted her foot and stomped them
flat.
'Well, that may be OK in California,
but we're not having any of that shit in Alabama!’ she said.
George Bush, Queen
Elizabeth, and Vladimir Putin all die and go to hell. While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for.
The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth. Putin asks to call Russia
and talks for 5 minutes. When he was finished the devil informs him that the
cost is a million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.
Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she was
finished the devil informs her that cost is 6 million dollars, so Queen
Elizabeth writes him a check.
Finally George Bush gets his turn and talks for 4 hours. When he was finished
the devil informed him that there would be no charge for the call and feel free
to call the USA anytime.
When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the devil why Bush got to call
the USA free. The devil replied, "Since Obama became president of the USA
, the country has gone to hell, so naturally it's a local call."
The doctor, after an examination, sighed and said,
"I've got some bad news. You have cancer, and you'd best put your
affairs in order..."
The woman was shocked, but managed to compose herself and walk into the waiting
room where her daughter had been waiting.
"Well, daughter, we women celebrate when things are
good, and we celebrate when things don't go so well. In this case, things
aren't well. I have cancer. So, let's head to the club and have a
martini."
After 3 or 4 martinis, the two were feeling a little less
somber. There were some laughs and more martinis. They were eventually
approached by some of the woman's old friends, who were curious as to what
the two were celebrating.
The woman told her friends they were drinking to her
impending end, "I've been diagnosed with AIDS."
The friends were aghast, gave the woman their condolences
and beat a hasty retreat.
After the friends left, the woman's daughter leaned over and
whispered, "Momma, I thought you said you were dying of cancer, and you
just told your friends you were dying of AIDS! Why did you do
that?"
"Because I don't want any of those bitches sleeping
with your father after I'm gone."
And THAT, my friends, is what is called, "Putting Your
Affairs In Order."
Cowboy
In Church
One Sunday morning an old cowboy entered a
church just before services were to begin. Although the old man and his clothes
were spotlessly clean, he wore jeans, a denim shirt and boots that were very
worn and ragged.
In his hand he carried a worn out old hat and an
equally worn out Bible.
The church he entered was in a very upscale and exclusive part of the city. It
was the largest and most beautiful church the old cowboy had ever seen. The
people of the congregation were all dressed with expensive clothes and
accessories.
As the cowboy took a seat, the others moved away from him. No one greeted, spoke to, or welcomed him.
They were all appalled at his appearance and did not attempt to hide it.
As the old cowboy was leaving the church, the preacher approached him and asked
the cowboy to do him a favor.
'Before you come back in here again, have a talk
with God and ask him what he thinks would be appropriate attire for worship.'
The old cowboy assured the preacher he would. The next Sunday, he showed
back up for the services wearing the same ragged jeans, shirt, boots, and hat.
Once again he was
completely shunned and ignored.
The preacher approached the man and said, 'I thought I asked you to speak to
God before you came back to our church.'
'I did,' replied the old cowboy.
'If you spoke to God, what did he tell you the proper attire should be for
worshiping in here?' asked the preacher.
'Well, sir, God told me that He didn't have a clue what I should wear. He said He'd never been in this church
before.'

My Father Is A
stripper In A Gay Bar
One day a fourth-grade teacher asked the children what their fathers did
for a living.. All the typical answers came up -- fireman, mechanic,
businessman, salesman, doctor, lawyer, and so forth.
However, little Justin was being uncharacteristically quiet, so when the
teacher prodded him about his father, he finally replied,'Okay...my father's an
exotic dancer in a gay cabaret and takes off all his clothes in front of other
men and they put money in his underwear. Sometimes, if the offer is really
good, he will go home with some guy and stay with him all night for money.'
The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other
children to work on some exercises and then took little Justin aside to ask
him, 'Is that really true about your father?'
'No', the boy said, 'He actually works for the Democratic National
Committee and helped get Barack Obama elected President last year, but I was
too embarrassed to say that in front of the class.'

God addresses Al first.. ''Al, what do you believe in?''
Al replies: "Well, I believe that
I won that election, but that it was your will that I did not serve.. And
I've come to understand that now.''
God thinks for a second and says:
"Very good. Come and sit at my left.''
God then addresses Bill. "Bill, what do you believe in?''
Bill replies: "I believe in
forgiveness. I've sinned, but I've
never held a grudge against my fellow man, and I hope no grudges are held
against me.''

what do you believe in?''
He replies: "I believe you're in my
chair."
Did I read that sign right?

One day, when a male seamstress was sewing
while sitting close to a river, his thimble fell into the river. When he cried
out, the Lord appeared and asked, "My dear child, why are you
crying?" The male seamstress replied that his thimble had fallen into the
water and that he needed it to help his wife in making a living for their
family.
The Lord dipped His hand into the water and
pulled up a golden thimble set with sapphires.
"Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked The male seamstress
replied, "No."
The Lord again dipped into the river. He held out a golden thimble studded
with rubies.
"Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked. Again, the male
seamstress replied, "No."
The Lord reached down again and came up with a leather thimble.
"Is this your thimble ?" the Lord asked. The male seamstress
replied, "Yes."
The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty
and gave him all three thimbles to keep, and the male seamstress went
home happy.
Some years later, the male seamstress was walking with his wife along the
riverbank, and his wife fell into the river and disappeared under the
water.
When he cried out, the Lord again appeared
and asked him, "Why are you crying?" "Oh Lord, my wife has
fallen into the river!"
The Lord went down into the water and came up with Demi Moore. "Is
this your wife?" the Lord asked.
"Yes," cried the male seamstress. The Lord was furious.
"You lied! That is an untruth!"
The male seamstress replied, "Oh,
forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no'
to Demi Moore, you would have come up with Goldie Hawn.
Then if I said 'no' to her, you would have come up with my wife. Had I
then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I'm not in the
best of health and would not be able to take care of all three wives, so
THAT'S why I said 'yes' to Demi Moore.
And so the Lord let him keep her.
The moral of this story is:
Whenever a man lies, it's for a good and honorable reason, and in the best
interest of others.
That's our story, and we're sticking to it.

POWER
OUTAGE DURING A MAMMOGRAM
I actually kept my mammogram appointment. I was met with, 'Hi! I'm Belinda!'
This perky clipboard carrier smiled from ear to ear, tilted her head to one
side and crooned, 'All I need you to do is step into this room right here,
strip to the waist, then slip on this gown. Everything clear?'
I'm thinking, 'Belinda, try decaf. This ain't rocket science.'
Belinda skipped away to prepare the chamber of horrors.
With the right side finished, Belinda flipped me (literally) to the left and
said, 'Hmmmm. Can you stand on your tippy toes and lean in a tad so we can get
everything?'
'Fine', I answered. I was freezing, bruised, and out of air, so why not use the
remaining circulation in my legs and neck and finish me off?
My body was in a holding pattern that defied gravity (with my other breast
wedged between those two 4 inch pieces of square glass) when we heard, then
felt a zap! Complete darkness and the power went off!
'Oh, maintenance is working. Bet they hit a snag.' Belinda headed for the
door.
'Excuse me! You're not leaving me in this vise alone are you?' I shouted.
Belinda kept going and said, 'Oh, you fussy puppy...the door's wide open so
you'll have the emergency hall lights. I'll be right back.'
Before I could shout 'NOOOO!' she disappeared.
And that's exactly how Bubba and Earl, maintenance men extraordinaire, found
me, half-naked and part of me dangling from the Jaws of Life, and the other
part smashed between glass!
After exchanging polite 'Hi, how's it going' type greetings, Bubba (or possibly
Earl) asked, to my utter disbelief, if I knew the power was off.
Trying to disguise my hysteria, I replied with as much calmness as possible
'Uh, yes, yes I did thanks.'
'You bet, take care' Bubba replied and waved good-bye as though I'd been
standing in the line at the grocery store.
Two hours later, Belinda breezes in wearing a sheepish grin. Making no attempt
to suppress her amusement, she said, 'Oh I am sooo sorry!' The power came back
on and I totally forgot about you! And silly me, I went to lunch. Are we
upset?'
And that, Your Honor, is exactly how her head ended up between the clamps....
STIMULUS EXPLAINED
Sometime this year, we taxpayers may again
receive an Economic Stimulus Payment. This is a very exciting new
program. I will explain it using the Q and A format.
Q. What is an Economic Stimulus payment?
A. It is money that the federal government will send to tax payers.
Q. Where will the government get this money?
A. From taxpayers.
Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
A. Only a smidgen.
Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
A. The plan is that you will use the
money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.
Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China?
A. Shut up.
Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the US economy by spending
your stimulus check wisely:
If you spend the stimulus money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China.
If you spend it on gasoline, your money will go
to the Arabs.
If you purchase a computer, it will go to India.
If you purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go
to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala.
If you buy a car, it will go to Japan.
If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan.
If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to management
bonuses and they will hide it offshore.
Instead, keep the money in America by
1 - spending it at yard sales, or
2 - going to ball games or NASCAR race, or
3 - spending it on prostitutes (male for me),
or
4 - beer, or
5 - tattoos.
(These are the only American businesses still operating in the US.)
So I'm going to go to a ball game with a
tattooed prostitute that I met at a yard sale and we're going to drink beer all
day!
NINE WORDS WOMEN USE
(1) Fine: This is the word women use
to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting
dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you
have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around
the house.
(3) Nothing: This is the calm before
the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that
begin with nothing usually end in fine.
(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not
permission. Don't Do It!
(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a
word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh
means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time
standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the
meaning of nothing.)
(6) That's Okay: This is one of the
most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she
wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your
mistake.
(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you,
do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause
here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and
she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . that will bring
on a 'whatever').
(8) Whatever: Is a woman's way of
saying you are in big trouble.
(9) Don't worry about it, I got
it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman
has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will
later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to
# 3.
It got rid of a lot
of Obama Bumper Stickers !!!!
I know you don't
clean your computer screen very often and it is hard to clean it from
the inside so please click here and consider this my present
to you!
Cracking the code - After a President has been in office for 6 months it is customary
for the last President to send a note of congratulations to the new one.
Yesterday when the note came from Bush to Obama, the President was somewhat
troubled because it was written in code and all it said was: 370H-SSV-0773H
This troubled him as he had always heard from his peers how former
president Bush was perceived to have been scholarly challenged. The president
picked up the phone and called the former president, and asked him the meaning
of the note. Bush chuckled and replied, “Dude, you're holding it upside down.”
Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the
ice in Antarctica - where do they go?
Wonder no more!!!
It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an
extremely ordered and complex life.
The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as
maintaining a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its
life.
If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and
social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their
vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to
be rolled into and buried.
The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Then they kick him in the ice hole."
You really didn’t believe that I know anything
about penguins, did you!

Why Women Are Crabby
We started to 'bud' in our blouses at nine or ten years old only to find that
anything that came in contact with those tender, blooming buds hurt so bad it
brought us to tears.
Then came the ridiculously uncomfortable
training bra contraption that the boys in school would snap until we had
calluses on our backs.
Next, we get our periods in our early to
mid-teens (or sooner). Along with those budding boobs, we bloated, cramped, got
the hormone crankies, had to wear little mattresses between our legs or insert
tubular, packed cotton rods in places we didn't even know we had.
Our next little rite of passage was having sex
for the first time which was about as much fun as having a ramrod push your
uterus through your nostrils (IF he did it right and didn't end up with his
little cart before his horse), leaving us to wonder what all the fuss was
about.
Then it was off to Motherhood where we learned
to live on dry crackers and water for a few months so we didn't spend the
entire day leaning over Brother John. Of course, amazing creatures that we are
(and we are), we learned to live with the growing little angels inside us
steadily kicking our innards night and day making us wonder if we were
preparing to have Rosemary's Baby.
Our once flat bellies looked like we swallowed a
whole watermelon and we pee'd our pants every time we sneezed. When the big
moment arrived, the dam in our blessed Nether Regions invariably burst right in
the middle of the mall and we had to waddle, with our big cartoon feet, moaning
in pain all the way to the ER.
Then it was huff and puff and beg to die while
the OB says, 'Please stop screaming, Mrs. Hearmeroar. Calm down and push. 'Just
one more good push' (more like 10), warranting a strong, well-deserved impulse
to punch the %$#*@*#!* hubby and doctor square in the nose for making us cram a
wiggling, mushroom-headed 10 pound bowling ball through a keyhole.
After that, it was time to raise those angels
only to find that when all that 'cute' wears off, the beautiful little darlings
morphed into walking, jabbering, wet, gooey, snot-blowing, life-sucking little
poop machines.
Then come their 'Teen Years.' Need I say more?
When the kids are almost grown, we women hit our
voracious sexual prime in our early 40's - while hubby had his somewhere around
his 18th birthday.
So we progress into the grand finale: 'The
Menopause,' the Grandmother of all womanhood. It's either take HRT and chance
cancer in those now seasoned 'buds' or the aforementioned Nether Regions, or, sweat
like a hog in July, wash your sheets and pillowcases daily and bite the head
off anything that moves.
Now, you ask WHY women seem to be more spiteful
than men, when men get off so easy, INCLUDING the icing on life's cake: Being
able to pee in the woods without soaking their socks...
So, while I love being a woman, 'Womanhood'
would make the Great Gandhi a tad crabby. You think women are the 'weaker sex?'
Yeah right. Bite me.
The Sermon I think this Mom will never
forget...this particular Sunday sermon.....'Dear Lord,' the minister began,
with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face.
'Without you, we are but dust...' He would have continued but at that moment my
very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite
audibly in her shrill little four year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt
dust?'
JAMES (age 4) was listening to a Bible story.
His dad read : 'The man named Lot was warned to take his wife and
flee out of the city but his wife looked back and was turned to salt.'
Concerned, James asked: 'What happened to the flea?'

nearest package store for more bourbon, and planning begins for next week's
game.

HOW TO BE Gracious
Jennifer's wedding day was fast approaching. Nothing could dampen
her excitement -- not even her parent's nasty divorce.
Her mother had found the PERFECT dress to wear
and would be the best-dressed mother- of-the-bride ever!
A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn
that her father's new young wife had bought the exact same dress as her
mother! Jennifer asked her father's new young wife to exchange it, but
she refused. 'Absolutely not, I look like a million bucks in this dress,
and I'm Wearing it,' she replied.
Jennifer told her mother who graciously said,
'Never mind sweetheart. I'll get another dress. After all, it' s your special
day.'
A few days later, they went shopping and did
find another gorgeous dress. When they stopped for lunch, Jennifer asked
her mother, 'Aren't you going to return the other dress?
You really don't have another occasion where you could wear
it.
Her mother just smiled and replied, 'Of course I
do, dear. I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before the
wedding.'
NOW I ASK YOU - IS THERE A WOMAN OUT THERE, ANYWHERE, WHO WOULDN'T ENJOY THIS
STORY?
A man asked an American Indian what was his
wife's name..
He replied, "She called Four Horses".
The man said, "That's an unusual name for your wife.
What does it mean?"
The Old Indian answered, "It old Indian
Name.
It mean, Nag ...... nag ...... nag ...... nag!
The woman applying for a job in a Florida lemon
grove seemed to be far too qualified for the job.
The foreman frowned and said, "I have to ask you this; have you had
any actual experience in picking lemons?"
"Well, as a matter of fact, I have!" she replied.
"I've been divorced three times, and I voted for Obama."
Exercise For People Over 50
I am convinced that this is the best course of
action for those of us 50 and over plus some of the younger people as well.
Begin by standing on a comfortable surface,
where you have plenty of room at each side.
With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms
straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try
to reach a full minute, and then relax.
Each day you'll find that you can hold this
position for just a bit longer. After a couple of weeks, move up to
10-lb potato bags.
Then try 50-lb potato bags and then eventually
try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato bag in each hand and hold
your arms straight for more than a full minute.. (I'm currently at this
level)
After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag.
The Importance of Walking
Walking can add minutes to your life.
This enables you at 85 years old to spend an
additional 5 months in a nursing home at $7000 per month.
My grandpa started walking five miles a day when
he was 60. Now he's 97 years old and we don't know where he is.
I like long walks, especially when they are
taken by people who annoy me.
The only reason I would take up
walking is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.
I have to walk early in the morning, before my
brain figures out what I'm doing...
I joined a health club last year, spent about
400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently
you have to go there.
Every time I hear the dirty word 'exercise', I
wash my mouth out with chocolate.
I do have flabby thighs, but fortunately my
stomach covers them.
The advantage of exercising every day is so when
you die, they'll say, 'Well, she looks good doesn't she.'
If you are going to try cross-country skiing,
start with a small country.
I know I got a lot of exercise the last few
years,........ just getting over the hill.
We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a
lot more information in our heads.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
AND
Every time I start thinking too much about
how I look, I just find a Happy Hour and
by the time I leave, I look just fine.

Little Johnny Meets
Barack Obama
Barack Obama was visiting a primary school and he visited one of the classes.
They were in the middle of a discussion related to words and their
meanings. The teacher asked the president if he would like to lead the
discussion on the word 'tragedy.' So our illustrious president asked the
class for an example of a 'tragedy.'
One little boy stood up and offered: 'If my best friend, who lives on a farm,
is playing in the field and a tractor runs over him and kills him, that
would be a tragedy.'
'No,' said Obama, 'that would be an accident.'
A little girl raised her hand:
'If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone
inside, that would be a tragedy.
I'm afraid not,'
explained Obama. 'That's what we would call great loss.'
The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Obama searched the
room. 'Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?'
Finally at the back of the room, Little Johnny raised his hand. In a
quiet voice
he said: 'If the plane carrying you and Mrs. Obama was struck by a 'friendly
fire' missile and blown to smithereens that would be a tragedy.'
'Fantastic!' exclaimed Obama. 'That's
right. And can you tell me why that would be
tragedy?'
'Well,' says the boy, 'It has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn't be
a great loss...and it probably wouldn't be an accident either.'
The other day, I
needed to go to the emergency room.
Not wanting to sit there for 4 hours, I put on my old Army fatigues and stuck a
patch onto the front of my shirt that I had downloaded off the Internet.
When I went into the E.R., I noticed that 3/4 of the people got up and left.
I guess they decided that they weren't that sick after
all. Cut at least 3 hours off my waiting time.
Here's the patch. Feel free to use it the next time you're in need of
quicker emergency service.
It also works at DMV
and the Laundromat.
Don't try it at
McDonald's, the whole crew will exit and you'll never get your order.
I pulled into the crowded parking lot at the local shopping center
and rolled down the car windows to make sure my Labrador Retriever Pup had
fresh air.
She was
stretched full-out on the back seat and I wanted to impress upon her that she
must remain there.
I walked to the curb backward, pointing my finger at the car and saying
emphatically, 'Now you stay. Do you hear me?'
'Stay! Stay!'
The driver of a nearby car, a pretty blonde young lady, gave me a strange look
and said, 'Why don't you just put it in Park?’
Excerpts from a DC
Airline Ticket Agent.
A DC airport ticket agent offers some examples of 'why' our country is in
trouble!
1. I had a New Hampshire Congresswoman (Carol Shea-Porter) ask for an aisle
seat so that her hair wouldn't get messed up by being near the window.. (On an
airplane!)
2. I got a call from a Kansas Congressman' s (Moore) staffer (Howard Bauleke),
who wanted to go to Capetown. I started to explain the length of the flight and
the passport information, and then he interrupted me with,
''I'm not trying to make you look stupid, but Capetown is in Massachusetts.''
Without trying to make him look stupid, I calmly explained, ''Cape Cod is in
Massachusetts , Capetown is in Africa '' his response -- click.
3. A senior Vermont Congressman (Bernie Sanders) called, furious about a
Florida package we did. I asked what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando .
He said he was expecting an ocean-view room. I tried t o explain that's not
possible, since Orlando is in the middle of the state.
He replied, 'don't lie to me, I looked on the map and Florida is a very thin
state!'' (OMG)
4. I got a call from a lawmaker's wife (Landra Reid) who asked, ''Is it
possible to see England from Canada ?''
I said, ''••••••
She said, ''But they look so close on the map.'' (OMG, again!)
5. An aide for a cabinet member (Janet Napolitano) once called and asked if he
could rent a car in Dallas . I pulled up the reservation and noticed he had
only a 1-hour layover in Dallas . When I asked him why he wanted to rent a car,
he said, ''I heard Dallas was a big airport, and we
will need a car to drive between gates to save time.'' (Aghhhh)
6. An Illinois Congresswoman (Jan Schakowsky) called last week. She needed to
know how it was possible that her flight from Detroit left at 8:30 a.m., and
got to Chicago at 8:33 a.m.
I explained that Michigan was an hour ahead of Illinois , but she couldn't
understand the concept of time zones. Finally, I told her the plane went fast,
and she bought that.
7. A New York lawmaker, (Jerrold Nadler) called and asked, ''Do airlines put
your physical description on your bag so they know whose luggage belongs to
whom?'' I said, 'No, why do you ask?' he replied, ''Well, when I checked in
with the airline they put a tag on my luggage that said (FAT), and I'm
overweight. I think that's very
rude!''
After putting him on hold for a minute, while I looked into it. (I was dying
laughing). I came back and explained the city code for Fresno , Ca. is (FAT -
Fresno Air Terminal), and the airline was just putting a destination
tag on his luggage.
8. A Senator John Kerry aide (Lindsay Ross) called to inquire about a trip
package to Hawaii. After going over all the cost info, she asked, ''Would it be
cheaper to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii?''
9. I just got off the phone with a freshman Congressman, Bobby Bright (D) from
Alaska who asked, ''How do I know which plane to get on?''
I asked him what exactly he meant, to which he replied, ''I was told my flight
number is 823, but none of these planes have numbers on them.''
10. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D) called and said, ''I need to fly to Pepsi-Cola
, Florida . Do I have to get on one of those little computer planes?''
I asked if she meant fly to Pensacola , FL on a commuter plane.
She said, ''Yeah, whatever, smarty!''
11. Mary Landrieu (D) La. Senator called and had a question about the documents
she needed in order to fly to China . After a lengthy discussion about
passports, I reminded her that she needed a visa. 'Oh, no I don't.
I've been to China many times and never had to have one of those.''
I double checked and sure enough, her stay required a visa. When I told her
this she said, ''Look, I've been to China four times and every time they have
accepted my American Express!''
12. A New Jersey Congressman (John Adler) called to make reservations, 'I want
to go from Chicago to Rhino, New York ..''
I was at a loss for words. Finally, I said, ''Are you sure that's the name of
the town?''
'Yes, what flights do you have?'' replied the man.
After some searching, I came back with, ''I'm sorry, sir, I've looked up every
airport code in the country and can't find a rhino anywhere."
''The man retorted, ''Oh, don't be silly! Everyone knows where it is. Check
your map!''
So I scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, ''You don't
mean Buffalo , do you?''
The reply? ''Whatever! I knew it was a big animal.''
Now you know why the Government is in the shape that it's in!
Could anyone be this DUMB?
YES, THEY WALK AMONG US, ARE IN POLITICS, AND THEY CONTINUE TO BREED..

Between 1 and 80, a man is like Iran, ruled by nuts.
A man was driving
when a traffic camera flashed. He thought his picture was taken for
exceeding the speed limit, even though he knew he was not speeding. Just to be sure,
he went around the block and passed the same spot, driving even more slowly,
but again the camera flashed. He thought this was quite funny, so he
slowed down even further as he drove past the area, but the traffic
camera flashed yet again. He tried a fourth time with the same result.
The fifth time he was laughing when the camera flashed as he rolled past
at a snail's pace.
Two weeks later, he got five traffic tickets in the mail for driving
without a seat belt.

wine to turn back into water.
Now THAT's Dry!

FORREST GUMP GOES TO HEAVEN
The day finally
arrived. Forrest Gump dies and goes to
Heaven. He is at the Pearly Gates, met by St. Peter
himself. However, the gates are closed, and Forrest approaches
the gatekeeper.
St. Peter said, 'Well, Forrest, it is certainly good to see
you. We have heard a lot about you. I must tell
you, though, that the place is filling up fast, and we have been
administering an entrance examination for everyone. The test is
short, but you have to pass it before you can get into Heaven.'
Forrest responds, 'It sure is good to be here, St. Peter,
sir. But nobody ever told me about any
entrance exam. I sure hope that the test ain't too
hard. Life was a big enough test as it was.'
St. Peter continued, 'Yes, I know, Forrest, but the test is only three
questions.
First:
What two days of the week begin with the
letter T?
Second:
How many seconds are there in a year?
Third:
What is God's first name?'
Forrest leaves to think the questions over. He returns the next
day and sees St. Peter, who waves him up, and says, 'Now that you have had
a chance to think the questions over, tell me your answers.'
Forrest replied, 'Well, the first one -- which two days in the week begins
with the letter 'T'? Shucks, that one is easy. That would
be Today and Tomorrow.'
The Saint's eyes opened wide and he exclaimed, 'Forrest, that is not what
I was thinking, but you do have a point, and I guess I did not specify, so
I will give you credit for that answer..
How about the next one?' asked St.
Peter.
'How many seconds in a year?
Now that one is harder,' replied Forrest, 'but I
thunk and thunk about that, and I guess the only answer can be twelve.'
Astounded, St. Peter said, 'Twelve? Twelve? Forrest, how in
Heaven's name could you come up with twelve seconds in a year?'
Forrest replied, 'Shucks, there's got to be twelve: January 2nd, February
2nd, March 2nd... '
'Hold it,' interrupts St. Peter. 'I see where you are going
with this, and I see your point, though that was not quite what I had in
mind....but I will have to give you credit for that one,
too. Let us go on with the third and final question.
Can you tell me God's first name'?
'Sure,' Forrest replied,
'it's Andy.'
'Andy?' exclaimed an exasperated and frustrated St.
Peter. 'Ok, I can understand how you came up with your
answers to my first two questions, but just how in the world did you come
up with the name Andy as the first name of God?'
'Shucks, that was the easiest one of all,' Forrest replied. 'I
learnt it from the song,
ANDY WALKS WITH ME,
ANDY TALKS WITH ME,
ANDY TELLS ME I AM HIS OWN.'
St. Peter opened the Pearly Gates, and said:
'Run, Forrest, Run.'
I was in the pub yesterday when I suddenly
realized I desperately needed to fart. The music was really, really loud,
so I timed my farts with the beat.
After a couple of songs, I started to feel better. I finished my pint
and noticed that everybody was staring at me.
Then I suddenly remembered that I was listening to my iPod.
Ramblings of a Retired Mind
I was thinking about
how a status symbol of today is those cell phones that everyone has clipped
onto their belt or purse. I can't afford one. So, I'm wearing my garage door
opener. I also made a cover for my hearing aid and now I have what they call
blue teeth, I think.
You know, I spent a fortune on deodorant before I realized that people didn't
like me anyway.
I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans!
I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is 'when you still have
something on the ball, but you are just too tired to bounce it.'
I thought about making a fitness movie for folks my age, and call it 'Pumping
Rust'.
I've gotten that dreaded furniture disease. That's when your chest is falling
into your drawers!
When people see a cat's litter box, they always say, 'Oh, have you got a cat?'
Just once I want to say, 'No, it's for company!'
Employment application blanks always ask who is to be notified in case of an
emergency. I think you should write, 'A Good Doctor'!
I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot
more as they get older. Then, it dawned on me. They were cramming for their finals.
As for me, I'm just hoping God grades on the curve.
Parking Ticket
Working people frequently ask retired people
what they do to make their days interesting.
Well, for example, the other day my
wife and I went into town and went into a shop.
We were only in there for about 5
minutes. When we came out,
there was a cop writing out a parking ticket...
We went up to him and said, 'Come on
man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?'
He ignored us and continued writing the
ticket. I called him a Nazi turd. He glared at me and started
writing another ticket for having worn tires.
So my wife called him a shit-head. He
finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the
first. Then he started writing A third ticket. This went on
for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he
wrote.
Personally, we didn't care... We
came into town by bus and the car had an Obama sticker. We try to have
a little fun each day now that we're retired. It's important at our age.

This is absolutely
hilarious, but the scary part about it is that it's probably not too far away
from being reality, providing Obama has his way with socialized medicine, and
digitizing medical records.

The American Medical
Association has weighed in on the new Health Care Reform plan.
The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make
any rash moves.
The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the
Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.
The Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception.
Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.
Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!"
The Pediatricians said, 'Oh, Grow up!'
The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists
could see right through it.
The Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic
Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter."
The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed
off at the whole idea.
The Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and the Cardiologists
didn't have the heart to say no.
In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the
assholes in Washington.

SURE CURE FOR
CONSTIPATION
If you are bothered by occasional or frequent constipation, look in the mirror
and repeat the following phrase three times in succession when
symptoms occur:
"My financial and personal well
being are totally in the hands of Barack Obama,
Joe Biden, Harry Reid,
Nancy Pelosi, Hillary
Clinton, Tim Geithner, Rahm Emmanual, Barney
Frank, Chris Dodd, and Al Gore"
If that doesn't scare the s--t out of you, then you are probably
destined to be backed up for the rest of your life.
There is no need to thank me for this advice, I'm just doing a public
service.
Awesome, isn’t
it? It took a sculptor and team of men
14 years to produce.
Ever wonder what’s on
the other side of the mountain?
There! Now you know!
The Man Rules - At last a guy has taken the time to write this
all down:
We always hear "the rules" from the female side. Now
here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules! Please note..
these are all numbered "1 " ON PURPOSE!
1. Men are NOT mind readers.
1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down.
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
1. Sunday Sports ..... It's like the full moon or the changing of the
tides. Let it be.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. Ask for what you want. Let us be
clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question..
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it.. That's what we
do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends
are for..
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become Null and void
after 7 Days.
1. If you think you're fat, you probably are.
Don't ask us
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes
you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done.. Not
both. If you already know best how to
do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color.
Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched.
We do that.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like
nothing's wrong. We know you are lying,
but it is just not worth the hassle.
1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you
don't want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine...
really.

1. You have too many shoes.
1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!
1. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I
know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; but did you know men really don't
mind that? It's like camping.
I have 4 extra tickets for the Robbie Knievel
(son of Evil Knievel) event at Turner Field this weekend in Atlanta,
if anybody wants them.
He's going to try to jump 100,000 Obama supporters with a bulldozer.
Should be a good time.
Have you ever told a
white lie? You are going to love this, especially all of the ladies who bake
for church events:
Alice Grayson was to bake
a cake for the Baptist Church Ladies' Group in Tuscaloosa, but forgot to do it
until the last minute. She remembered it the morning of the bake sale and after
rummaging through cabinets, found an angel food cake mix and quickly made it
while drying her hair, dressing, and helping her son pack up for Scout camp.
When she took the
cake from the oven, the center had dropped flat and the cake was horribly
disfigured and she exclaimed, "Oh dear, there is not time to bake another
cake!"
This cake was important
to Alice because she did so want to fit in at her new church, and in her new
community of friends. So, being inventive, she looked around the house for
something to build up the centre of the cake. She found it in the bathroom - a
roll of toilet paper. She plunked it in and then covered it with icing. Not
only did the finished product look beautiful, it looked perfect. And, before
she left the house to drop the cake by the church and head for work, Alice woke
her daughter and gave her some money and specific instructions to be at the
bake sale the moment it opened at 9:30 and to buy the cake and bring it home.
When the daughter
arrived at the sale, she found the attractive, perfect cake had already been
sold! Amanda grabbed her cell phone and called her mom. Alice was horrified-she
was beside herself! Everyone would know! What would they think? She would be
ostracized, talked about, ridiculed! All night, Alice lay awake in bed
thinking about people pointing fingers at her and talking about her behind her
back.
The next day, Alice
promised herself she would try not to think about the cake and would attend the
fancy luncheon/bridal shower at the home of a fellow church member and try to
have a good time. She did not really want to attend because the hostess was a
snob who more than once had looked down her nose at the fact that Alice was a
single parent and not from the founding families of Tuscaloosa, but having
already RSVP'd , she couldn't think of a believable excuse to stay home. The
meal was elegant, the company was definitely upper crust old south and to
Alice's horror, the cake in question was presented for dessert!
Alice felt the blood
drain from her body when she saw the cake! She started out of her chair to tell
the hostess all about it, but before she could get to her feet, the Mayor's
wife said, "what a beautiful cake!"
Alice, still stunned,
sat back in her chair when she heard the hostess (a prominent church member)
say, "Thank you, I baked it myself."
Alice smiled and
thought to herself, "God is good."
Over five thousand
years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel
" pick up your shovel, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to
the Promised Land".
Nearly 75 years ago , Roosevelt said, " Lay down your shovels , sit
on your asses , and light up a camel , this is the promised land".
Now Obama is going to steal your shovel , kick your asses , raise
the price of camels , and mortgage the promised land!
THE PLAN
A. Back off and let those men who want to marry men, marry men.
B. Allow those women who want to marry women, marry women.
C. Allow those folks who want to abort their babies, abort their babies.
D. In three generations, there will be no Democrats.
Damn - I love it when a plan comes together!

100 EURO
It is the month of
August, on the shores of the Black Sea. It is raining, and the little town
looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody
lives on credit.
Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town.
He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 Euro note on the reception counter, and
goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one.
The hotel proprietor takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the
butcher.
The Butcher takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the pig
grower.
The pig grower takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the
supplier of his feed and fuel.
The supplier of feed and fuel takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt
to the town's prostitute that in these hard times, gave her
"services" on credit.
The hooker runs to the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 Euro note to the
hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that she rented when she brought her
clients there.
The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 Euro note back on the counter so that
the rich tourist will not suspect anything.
At that moment, the rich tourist comes down after inspecting the rooms, and
takes his 100 Euro note, after saying that he did not like any of the rooms,
and leaves town.
No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now without debt, and looks
to the future with a lot of optimism..
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the United States Government is doing
business today.

From an unnamed newspaper ad:
Male
or Female? You might not have known this, but a
lot of non-living objects are actually either male or female. Here are
some examples:
FREEZER
BAGS:
They are
male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.
PHOTOCOPIERS:
These are
female, because once turned off; it takes a while to warm them up again. They are
an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can also
wreak havoc if you push the wrong Buttons.
TIRES:
Tires are
male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated.
HOT AIR
BALLOONS:
Also a
male object, because to get them to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under
their butt.
SPONGES:
These are
female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.
WEB PAGES:
Female,
because they're constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.
TRAINS:
Definitely
male, because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.
EGG
TIMERS:
Egg
timers are female because, over time, all the weight shifts to the bottom.
HAMMERS:
Male,
because in the last 5000 years, they've hardly changed at all, and are
occasionally h andy to have around.
THE
REMOTE CONTROL:
Female.
Ha! You probably thought it would be
male, but consider this: It easily gives a man pleasure, he'd be lost without
it, and while he doesn't always know which buttons to push, he just keeps
trying.
New Law:
With the
high rate of attacks on women in secluded parking lots, especially during
evening hours, the Minneapolis City Council has established a 'Women Only'
parking lot at the Mall of America. Even the parking lot attendants are
exclusively female so that a comfortable and safe environment is created for
patrons.
Below is the first picture available of this world-first women-only parking lot
in Minnesota .
Have a good laugh, guys!
Did you hear about the 75 year old woman

A TRUE STORY FROM....
"THE HOUSTON HERALD NEWSPAPER" IN HOUSTON, TEXAS
MARCH 5th, 2009
Last Thursday Night
around midnight, a woman from Houston, Texas was arrested, jailed, and charged
with manslaughter for shooting a man 6 times in the back as he was running away
with her purse.
The following Monday
morning, the woman was called in front of the arraignment judge, sworn in,
and asked to explain her actions.
The woman replied,
"I was standing at the corner bus stop for about 15 minutes, waiting for
the bus to take me home after work. I
Am A Waitress At A Local Cafe... I was there alone, so I had my right hand
on my pistol, that was in my purse, that was hung over my left shoulder.”
“All of a sudden I
was being spun around hard to my left.
As I caught my balance, I saw a man running away from me with my
purse. I looked down at my right hand
and I saw
that my fingers were
wrapped tightly around my pistol. The
next thing I remember is saying out loud, "No way Punk! You’re not stealing
my pay check and tips."
“I raised my right
hand, pointed my pistol at the man running away from me with my purse, and
squeezed the trigger of my pistol 6 times!”
When asked by the
arraignment judge, "Why did you shoot the man 6 times?”
The woman replied
under oath, "Because, when I pulled the trigger of my pistol the 7th
time, it only went click."
The woman was
aquitted of all charges and she was back to work the next day.
Now, THAT’S Gun
Control!
Cats are so dramatic!
The Priest
The old priest lay dying in the hospital. For
years he had faithfully served the People of the nation's capital. He
motioned for his nurse to come near.
"Yes, Father?" said the nurse.
"I would really like to see Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi
before I die", whispered the priest.
"I'll see what I can do, Father" replied
the nurse.
The nurse sent the request to them and waited for
a response. Soon the word arrived. Harry and Nancy would be
delighted to visit the priest.
As they went to the hospital, Harry commented to Nancy
"I don't know why the old priest wants to see us, but it
will certainly help our images." Nancy couldn't help but agree.
When they arrived at the priest's room, the priest took
Nancy's hand in his right hand and Harry's hand in his left. There was
silence and a look of serenity on the old priest's face.
Finally Nancy spoke. "Father, of all the people
you could have chosen, why did you choose us to be with you as you
near the end?"
The old priest slowly replied "I have always tried
to pattern my life after our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." The
old priest continued... "He died between two lying thieves. I
would like to do the same."
How come it takes so little time for a child who is afraid
of the dark to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night?
A United States
Marine was attending some college courses between assignments. He had completed
missions in Iraq and Afghanistan .. One of the courses had a professor who was
an avowed atheist and a member of the ACLU .
One day the professor shocked the class when he came in he looked to the
ceiling and flatly stated, 'God, if you are real, then I want you to knock me
off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15 minutes.' The lecture room fell
silent. You could hear a pin drop.
Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, ' Here I am God. I'm still
waiting.' It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of
his chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him, knocking him off the
platform. The professor was out cold.
The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently. The other students
were shocked, stunned, and sat there looking on in silence. The professor
eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, 'What
the heck is the matter with you? Why did you do that?'
The Marine calmly
replied, 'God was too busy today protecting American soldiers who are protecting
your right to say stupid stuff and act like an idiot. So, He sent me.'
(Humor may not be the
best place for this. . . but it sure brought a smile to MY face! DebV)
New Ice Cream Flavor
In honor of the 44th President of the United States, Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream
has introduced a new flavor; "Barocky Road".
Barocky Road is a blend of half-Vanilla, half-Chocolate, and surrounded by Nuts
and Flakes. The Vanilla portion of the mix is not openly advertised and usually
denied as an ingredient. Its country of origin is questionable, and
it's a fair bet that it was actually made in Africa by Muslims.
There is no doubt that this flavor was
hand-molded by Muslims before it left Africa.
The Nuts and Flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow.
The cost is $100.00 per scoop but only if you are "rich", and
that target definition keeps moving around. If you are
"poor" (or at least "oppressed by the man"), you actually
get paid to eat the ice cream.
There is a new law that everyone must purchase
this. When purchased it will be
presented to you in a large beautiful cone, but then the Ice Cream is taken
away and given to the person outside the store who doesn't have money
for ice cream.
Now this is the kind of change that a person can believe in.
THE
BLONDE WHO MARRIED A CATHOLIC
On their honeymoon the blonde bride slipped into a sexy nightie and with great
anticipation, crawled into bed, only to find her new Catholic husband had
settled down on the couch.
When she asked him why he was apparently not going to make love to her, he
replied, “It's Lent.”
In tears, she sobbed, “Well, that is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard!
Who did you lend it to and for how long?”

buy stocks.
CASH FLOW -The movement your money makes
as it disappears down the toilet.
YAHOO-What you yell after selling it to some
poor sucker for $240 per share.
WINDOWS-What you jump out of when you're
the sucker who bought Yahoo at $240 per share.
INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR-Past year investor who's
now locked up in a nuthouse.
PROFIT-an archaic word no longer in use.
Ponder this:
If you had purchased $1000 of shares in Delta
Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today.
If you had purchased $1000 of shares in AIG one
year ago, you will have $33.00 today.
If you had purchased $1000 of shares
in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.
But---- if you had purchased $1000 worth of beer
one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for
recycling refund, you will have received $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment
plan is to drink heavily & recycle.
It's called the 401-Keg.

A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing
among three likely candidates. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and
watches to see what they do with the money.
The first does a total makeover. She goes to a fancy beauty salon, gets her
hair done, new makeup; buys several new outfits and dresses up very nicely for
the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him
because she loves him so much.
The man was impressed.
The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts She gets him a new set of golf
clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes. As she
presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him
because she loves him so much
Again, the man is impressed.
The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times the
$5,000. She gives him back his $5,000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint
account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future because she
loves him so much.
Obviously, the man was impressed.
The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money
he'd given her.
Then he married the one with the biggest BOOBS!
Men are like that, you know. There is more money being spent on breast implants
and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research This means that by 2040, there
should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and
absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.
A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF THE KIND OF
REPRESENTATION WE
HAVE IN CONGRESS, TRUE STORY:
A noted psychiatrist was a guest speaker at an academic function where Nancy
Pelosi happened to appear. Ms. Pelosi took the opportunity to schmooze
the good doctor a bit and asked him a question with which he was most at
ease.
"Would
you mind telling me, Doctor," she asked, "how you detect a mental
deficiency in somebody who appears completely normal?"
"Nothing
is easier," he replied. "You ask a simple question which anyone
should answer with no trouble. If the person hesitates, that puts you on
the track."
"What
sort of question?" asked Pelosi.
Well, you might ask, "Captain Cook made three trips around the world and
died during one of them. Which one?''
Ms. Pelosi thought a moment, and then said with a nervous laugh, "You
wouldn't happen to have another example would you? I must confess I don't
know much about history."
TAX CODE CHANGE
Your income taxes are normally due on April
15th, unless that date falls on a Saturday or Sunday in which case they are due
on Monday the 16th or 17th.
However, I have been told that due to a recent
change, and for the next 4 years, they will not be due until you are nominated
to a cabinet position.
Shortly after class, an economics student
approaches his economics professor and says, "I don't understand this
stimulus bill. Can you explain it to me?"
The professor replied, "I don't have any time to explain it at my office,
but if you come over to my house on Saturday and help me with my weekend
project, I'll be glad to explain it to you." The student agreed.
At the agreed-upon time, the student showed up at the professor's house.
The professor stated that the weekend project involved his backyard pool.
They both went out back to the pool, and the professor handed the student a
bucket. Demonstrating with his own bucket, the professor said, "First, go
over to the deep end, and fill your bucket with as much water as you can."
The student did as he was instructed.
The professor then continued, "Follow me over to the shallow end, and then
dump all the water from your bucket into it." The student was naturally
confused, but did as he was told.
The professor then explained they were going to do this many more times, and
began walking back to the deep end of the pool.
The confused student asked, "Excuse me, but why are we doing this?"
The professor matter-of-factly stated that he was trying to make the shallow
end much deeper.
The student didn't think the economics professor was serious, but figured that
he would find out the real story soon enough.
However, after the 6th trip between the shallow end and the deep end, the
student began to become worried that his economics professor had gone mad. The
student finally replied, "All we're doing is wasting valuable time and
effort on unproductive pursuits. Even worse, when this process is all over,
everything will be at the same level it was before, so all you'll really have
accomplished is the destruction of what could have been truly productive
action!"
The professor put down his bucket and replied with a smile,
"Congratulations. You now understand the stimulus bill."
Good Fairy and the illegal
A beautiful fairy appeared one day to a destitute refugee outside a
Arizona immigration office.
'Good man,' the fairy said, 'I've been sent here by President Obama and told to
grant you three wishes, since you just arrived in the United States with your
wife and three children'
The man told the fairy. 'Well, where I come from we don't have
good teeth, so I want new teeth, maybe a lot of gold in them.'
The fairy looked at the man's almost toothless grin and -- PING ! -- he
had a brand new shining set of gold teeth in his mouth!
What else?' asked the fairy, 'two more to go.'
The illegal refugee claimant now got bolder. 'I need a big house
with a three car garage in Annapolis on the water with eight bedrooms for my
family and the rest of my relatives who still live in my country. I want
to bring them all over here . .. . and -- PING ! -- in the distance there could
be seen a beautiful mansion with a three car garage, a long driveway, a walkout
patio with a BBQ in an upscale neighborhood overlooking the bay.
'One more wish', said the fairy, waving her wand.
'Yes, one more wish. I want to be like an American with American
clothes instead of these torn clothes, and a baseball cap instead of this
turban. And I want to have white skin like Americans . . . and -- PING!
-- The man was transformed, wearing worn out jeans, a Baltimore Orioles T-shirt
and a baseball cap. He had his bad teeth back and the mansion had
disappeared from the horizon.
'What happened to my new teeth?' he wailed. 'Where is my new house?'
THIS IS GOOD . .NO, ACTUALLY THIS IS VERY GOOD . . . . . . .
The fairy said 'Tough shit, Mac, Now that you are a White American, you have to
fend for yourself.' And she disappeared .
I very quietly confided to my best friend that I was having an affair.
She turned to me and asked, 'Are you having it catered'?
And that, my friend, is the sad definition of 'OLD'!
THE SOUTH --- YOU GOTTA LOVE IT
Alabama
A group of Alabama friends went deer hunting and paired off in
twos for the day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering
under the weight of an eight-point buck. 'Where's Henry?' the others
asked.
'Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a couple
of miles back up the trail,' the successful hunter replied. 'You
left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?' they
inquired.
'A tough call,' nodded the hunter. 'But I
figured no one is going to steal Henry.'
Texas
The Sheriff pulled up next to the guy unloading garbage out of his pick-up
into the ditch. The Sheriff asked, 'Why are you dumping garbage in
the ditch? Don't you see that sign right over your head'.
'Yep', he replied. 'That's why I dumpin it here,
cause it says: 'Fine For Dumping Garbage'.
Louisiana
A senior at LSU was overheard saying... 'When the end of the world comes, I
hope to be in Louisiana.' When asked why, he replied,
'Because everything happens in Louisiana 20 years later than in the
rest of the civilized world.'
Mississippi
The young man from Mississippi came running into the store and said to his
buddy, 'Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking
lot!'
Bubba replied, 'Did you see who it was?'
The young man answered, 'I couldn't tell, but I got his license number.'
Georgia
A Georgia State trooper pulled over a pickup on I- 75. The trooper
asked, 'Got any I. D. ?'
The driver replied, 'Bout whut?'
North Carolina
A man in North Carolina had a flat tire, pulled off on the side
of the road, and proceeded to put a bouquet of flowers in front of the car and
one behind it. Then he got back in the car to wait. A passerby
studied the scene as he drove by and was so curious he turned around and went
back. He asked the fellow what the problem was.
The man replied, 'I have a flat tire.'
The passerby asked, 'But what's with the flowers?'
The man responded, 'When you break down they tell you to put flares in the
front and flares in the back. Hey, it don't make no sense to me
neither.'
Tennessee
The owner of a golf course was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided
to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He called her into his office
and said, You graduated from the University of
Tennessee and I need some help. If I were to give you $20,000, minus 14%,
how much would you take off?'
The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, 'Everything but my
earrings.
South Carolina
'You can say what you want about the South, but I ain't never heard of anyone
wanting to retire to the North.'
The
Wal Mart Greeter
So, after landing my new job as a Wal-Mart greeter, a good find
for many retirees, I lasted less than a day......
About two hours into my first day on the job a very loud, unattractive,
mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities
at them all the way through the entrance. As I had been instructed, I said
pleasantly, 'Good morning, and welcome to Wal-Mart. Nice children you have
there. Are they twins?'
The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say, 'Hell no, they ain't twins
The oldest one's 9, and the other one's 7. Why the hell would you think they're
twins? Are you blind, or just stupid?'
So I replied, 'I'm neither blind nor stupid, Ma'am, I just
couldn't believe you got laid twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping
at Wal-Mart.'
My supervisor said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of
work.
159 YEARS
AGO
California
became a state.
The State had no electricity.
The State had no money.
Almost everyone spoke Spanish.
There were gunfights in the streets.
So
basically, it was just like it is today, except the
women had real breasts and the men didn't hold hands.
