Just Confess
A
drunk staggers into a Catholic Church, enters a confessional box, sits
down but says nothing. The Priest coughs a few times to get his attention
but the drunk just sits there. Finally, the Priest pounds three times on
the wall. The drunk mumbles, "ain't no use knockin, there's no paper
on this side either".
Who was that
A
married couple were asleep when the phone rang at 2 in the morning. The
wife (a blonde), picked up the phone, listened a moment and said,
"How should I know, that's 200 miles from here!" and hung up.
The husband said, "Who was that?" The wife said, "I don't
know, some woman wanting to know "if the coast was clear."
Out of depth
A
scuba diver is paddling around about 20 feet below sea level when he
notices another man at the same depth, but with no scuba gear on.
The diver goes below another 20 feet, and the man joins him a moment
later. The diver goes down even farther and the same fellow is right
behind him.
The confused diver takes out his waterproof chalkboard and writes,
"How the heck are you able to stay under this deep without
equipment?"
The man grabs the board and chalk, erases what the diver had written, and
writes, "I'm drowning, you moron."
Things to ponder:
If
pro is the opposite of con, is progress the opposite of congress?
Why does "cleave" mean both split apart and stick together?
Why is it, whether you sit up or sit down, the result is the same?
Why is it called a "building" when it is already built?
Why do they call them "apartments" when they are all stuck
together?
Yum Yum
Johnny:
Daddy, are caterpillars good to eat?
Father: Have I not told you never to mention such things during meals!
Mother: Why did you say that, Junior? Why did you ask the question?
Johnny: It's because I saw one on daddy's lettuce, but now it's gone.
Gotcha
After
shopping in a mall, a couple returns to find their car has been stolen.
They go to the police station to make a full report. Then, a detective
drives them back to the parking lot to see if any evidence can be found
at the scene of the crime. To their amazement, the car has been returned.
There is an envelope on the windshield with a note of apology and two
tickets to a music concert. The note reads, "I apologize for taking
your car, but my wife was having a baby and I had to hot-wire your
ignition to rush her to the hospital. Please forgive the inconvenience.
Here are two tickets for tonight's concert of Garth Brooks, the
country-and-western music star."
Their faith in humanity restored, the couple attend the concert and
return home late. They find their house has been robbed. Valuable goods
have been taken from thoughout the house, from basement to attic. And,
there is a note on the door reading, "Well, you still have your car.
I have to put my kid through college somehow, don't I?"
You Owe Me
As
Mr. Smith was on his death bed, he attempted to formulate a plan that
would allow him to take at least some of his considerable wealth with
him. He called for the three men he trusted most--his lawyer, his doctor,
and his clergyman. He told them, "I'm going to give you each $30,000
in cash before I die. At my funeral, I want you to place the money in my
coffin so that I can try to take it with me."
All three agreed to do this and were given the money. At the funeral,
each approached the coffin in turn and placed an envelope inside.
While riding in the limousine back from the cemetery, the clergyman said,
"I have to confess something to you fellows. Brother Smith was a
good churchman all his life, and I know he would have wanted me to do
this. The church needed a new baptistery very badly, and I took $10,000
of the money he gave me and bought one. I only put $20,000 in the
coffin."
The physician then said, "Well, since we're confiding in one
another, I might as well tell you that I didn't put the full $30,000 in
the coffin either. Smith had a disease that could have been diagnosed
sooner if I had this very new machine, but the machine cost $20,000 and I
couldn't afford it then. I used $20,000 of the money to buy the machine
so that I might be able to save another patient. I know that Smith would
have wanted me to do that."
The lawyer then said, "I'm ashamed of both of you. When I put my
envelope into that coffin, it held my personal check for the full
$30,000."
Very Embarrassing
A
very shy guy goes into a nightclub and sees a beautiful woman sitting at
the bar. After an hour of gathering up his courage, he finally goes over
to her and asks, tentatively, "Um, would you mind if I chatted with
you for a while?"
She responds by yelling, at the top of her lungs, "No, I won't sleep
with you tonight!" Everyone in the bar is now staring at them.
Naturally, the guy is completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his
table.
After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologizes. She
smiles at him and says, "I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. You see,
I'm a graduate student in psychology and I'm studying how people respond
to embarrassing situations."
To which he responds, at the top of his lungs, "Two-hundred
dollars??? What do you mean $200?!!
Bumper Stickers:
I
love animals, they taste great.
EARTH FIRST! We'll stripmine the other planets later.
"Very funny, Scotty. Now beam down my clothes."
Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.
He who laughs last thinks slowest!
Give me ambiguity or give me something else.
Lottery: A tax on people who are bad at math.
Things to ponder:
Why
do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack?
Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?
If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?
Why do women wear evening gowns to nightclubs? Shouldn't they be wearing
night gowns?
If one synchronized swimmer drowns, do the rest have to drown too?
Ouch
A dentist, after completing work on a patient,
came to him begging.
Dentist: Could you help me? Could you give out a few of your loudest,
most painful screams?
Patient: Why? Doctor, it wasn't all that bad this time.
Dentist: There are so many people in the waiting room right now, and I
don't want to miss the four o'clock ball game.
Favouriteism
Recently
a teacher, a garbage collector, and a lawyer wound up together at the
Pearly Gates. St. Peter informed them that in order to get into Heaven,
they would each have to answer one question.
St. Peter addressed the teacher and asked, "What was the name of the
ship that crashed into the iceberg? They just made a movie about
it."
The teacher answered quickly, "That would be the Titanic." St.
Peter let him through the gate.
St. Peter turned to the garbage man and, figuring Heaven didn't *really*
need all the odors that this guy would bring with him, decided to make
the question a little harder: "How many people died on the
ship?"
Fortunately for him, the trash man had just seen the movie.
"1,228," he answered.
"That's right! You may enter."
St. Peter turned to the lawyer. "Name them."
Arthritis
A
man who smelled like a distillery flopped on a subway seat next to a
priest. The man's tie was stained, his face was plastered with red
lipstick, and a half empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn
coat pocket. He opened his newspaper and began reading. After a few
minutes, the disheveled guy turned to the priest and asked, "Say,
father, what causes arthritis?"
"Mister, it's caused by loose living, being with cheap, wicked
women, too much alcohol and a contempt for your fellow man."
"Well I'll be." the drunk muttered, returning to his paper.
The priest, thinking about what he had said, nudged the man and
apologized. "I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to come on so strong. How
long did you have arthritis?"
"I don't have it father. I was just reading here that the Pope
does."
Being Outclassed
The
Pope met with the College of Cardinals to discuss a proposal from Shimon
Peres, the former leader of Israel. "Your holiness," said one
of the Cardinals, "Mr. Peres wants to determine whether Jews or
Catholics are superior, by challenging you to a golf match." The
Pope was greatly disturbed, as he had never held a golf club in his life.
"Not to worry," said the Cardinal, "we'll call America and
talk to Jack Nicklaus. We'll make him a Cardinal, he can play Shimon
Peres... We can't lose!" Everyone agreed it was a good idea. The
call was made and, of course, Jack was honored and agreed to play.
The day after the match, Nicklaus reported to the Vatican to inform the
Pope of his success in the match. "I came in second, your
Holiness," said Nicklaus.
"Second?!!" exclaimed the surprised Pope. "You came in
second to Shimon Peres?!!"
"No," said Nicklaus, "second to Rabbi Woods."
The Punishment
A
man dies, and he's looking in the gates of hell.
There he sees John Kennedy with an incredibly ugly girl. The man turns to
the Devil and asks why John Kennedy is with this hideous looking person.
The Devil replies, "Well, Jack has done some bad things in his life
and that's his punishment."
The man looks around a little more and sees Bill Clinton with a beautiful
model. The stunned guy asks "What's Bill Clinton doing with that
model?" The devil replied, "Well, that model did some pretty
bad things in her life."
Move the fence
Did
you know that heaven and hell are actually right next to each other? They
are seperated by a big chain-link fence. Well, one day hell was having a
big party and it got a little out of hand. God heard the ruckus and
arrived to find his fence completely smashed by the wild partiers. He
called the devil over and said "Look, Satan, you have to rebuild
this fence." Satan agreed. The next day God noticed that the devil
had completely rebuilt the fence...but it was 2 feet further into heaven
than before.
"Satan!" beckoned God. "You have to take that fence down
and put it back where it belongs!"
"Yeah? What if I don't?" replied the devil.
"I'll sue you if I have to," answered God.
"Sure," laughed Satan. "Where are you going to find a
lawyer?"
Don’t Worry
A
woman called a dishwasher repairman. Since she had to go to work, she
told him she would leave the key under the mat and for him to leave his
bill on the counter and she would send him a check.
"Don't worry about my Doberman. He won't bother you, but, whatever
you do, do not, under any circumstances talk to the parrot!
When the repairman arrived he discovered the biggest and meanest looking
Doberman he had ever seen. But the dog just lay there watching him go
about his business. However, the parrot drove him nuts the whole time
with his incessant yelling, cursing, and name-calling.
Finally the repairman couldn't contain himself any longer and yelled,
"Shut up, you stupid ugly bird!"
The parrot replied, "Get him, Spike!"
