A few words on children – Don’t you just love them?

 

(For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious.
For those who have children this age, this is not funny.  For those who have
children nearing this age, this is a warning. For those who have not yet had
children, this is birth control.)

 
The following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, Texas (Those kids born in Texas!)

 

Things I've learned from my children (honest & no kidding):
 
1.  A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2,000 sq. ft. house to a depth of 4 inches.


2.  If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with rollerblades, they can ignite.


3.  A 3-year old's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.


4.  If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape.  It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.


5.  You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using   a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.


6.  The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.


7.  When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh," it's already too late.


8.  Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.


9.  A six-year old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old man says they can only do it in the movies.


10.  Certain pieces of Lego will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year old.


11.  Playdough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.


12.  Super glue is forever.


13.  No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.


14.  Pool filters do not like Jell-O.


15.  VCR's do not eject peanut butter and Jell-o sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.


16.  Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.


17.  Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise while driving.


18.  You probably do not want to know what that odour is.


19.  Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do not like ovens.


20.  The fire department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time.


21.  The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.


22.  It will, however, make cats dizzy.


23.  Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy


24.  60% of men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid!

Interesting thoughts for a Monday morning

When I "snap", you'll be the first to go

My voices can beat up your voices

Don't interrupt me while I'm talking to myself!

No sense in being pessimistic - it wouldn't work anyway

People like you are the reason people like me need medication

Everyone's got one, some people are one

Inside this person is a young person wondering...what the heck happened?

Save the trees, wipe with an owl

Stupidity is not a crime, so you're free to go

I'm sorry.  My fault.  I forgot you were an idiot.

5 out of 4 people have a problem with fractions

Tell me what you think and I will tell you why you are wrong

To save time, let's just assume I know everything

Oh, crap.  You're going to try and cheer me up, aren't you?

I live in my own little world, but it's ok...they know me here

I used to care but now I take a pill for that

My imaginary friend thinks you have serious mental problems

If people were more interesting I wouldn't be talking to myself

Warning: All stressed out and haven't choked anybody yet

If I got smart with you, how would you know?

I'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't stick my head that far up my hind end

Let me guess... your parents are cousins

Do you make an effort to be an idiot, or is it a gift?

Does your little mind ever get lonely in your big head?

The missing Scotsman joke

Four retired men are walking down a street in a small seaside town. Then they turn a corner and see a sign that says, "Oldie’s Bar.  ALL DRINKS 10 PENCE!" 

 

They look at each other, and then go in nervously, unsure whether to believe the sign and looking for a catch.  The old barman says in a voice that carries across the room, "Come on in.  What can I get you, gentlemen?"

 

There seems to be a fully-stocked bar, and so the men all ask for pints of bitter.  Without any more ado, the barman serves up 4 perfectly pulled pints, and says, "That'll be 10 pence each, please."

 

The four men stare at the barman for a moment then look at each other, unable to believe their good luck.  They pay the 40 pence, finish their drinks, and order another round.  Again, four perfect pints are produced with the barman again saying, "That’ll be another 40 pence, please."

 

They pay the 40 pence, but their curiosity is more than they can stand. They've each had two pints, and so far they've spent less than a pound. Finally one of the men says, "How can you afford to serve drinks at this price?"


The barman replies, "Here's my story. I'm a retired tailor from Gloucester, and I always wanted to own a pub.  Last year I won £25 million on the lottery and decided to open this place.  Every drink costs 10 pence - wine, spirits, beer, all the same."


"Wow. That's terrific." says one of the men.  The four of them sipped at their pints but couldn't help but notice, at the other end of the bar, another man without a drink, and who didn’t appear to have ordered anything the whole time they were there.  

 

One of the four men man gestures at the man at the end of the bar without a drink, leans forward and asks the barman, "What's with him?"

The barman says, "Oh, he’s from Scotland.  He’s waiting for happy hour!"

The Last  Straw!

The following letter (allegedly?) appeared in an Agony Aunt's column

Dear Abby,


I am a crack dealer in New Jersey who has recently been diagnosed as a carrier of the HIV virus.  My parents live in a suburb of Philadelphia and one of my sisters, who lives in Bensenville, is married to a transvestite.

My father and mother have recently been arrested for growing and selling marijuana and are currently dependent on my other two sisters, who are prostitutes in Jersey City.

I have two brothers. One is currently serving a non-parole life sentence in Attica for murder of a teenage boy in 1994. The other brother is currently being held in the Wellington Remand Centre on charges of sexual misconduct with his three children.

I have recently become engaged to marry a prostitute who lives in the Bronx and is still a part time "working girl" in a brothel. Her time there is limited as we hope to open our own brothel with her as the working manager. I am hoping my two sisters would be interested in joining our team Although I would prefer them not to prostitute themselves, it would get them off the street, and hopefully, the heroin habits.

All things considered, my main problem is this - I love my fiancée and look forward to bringing her into the family and I certainly want to be totally honest with her.

Should I tell her about my cousin who is a Freemason?

Signed,


Worried About My Reputation.

Comprehending Engineers

 

Comprehending Engineers - Take One

Two engineering students were walking across campus when one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?"

The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking along yesterday minding my own business when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike.  She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want."

The second engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice! The clothes probably wouldn't have fitted."


Comprehending Engineers - Take Two

To the optimist, the glass is half full.
To the pessimist, the glass is half-empty.
To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.


Comprehending Engineers - Take Three

A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers.

The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys?  We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!"

The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such ineptitude!"

The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greens keeper.  Let's have a word with him."

"Hey, George.  Say, what's with that group ahead of us?  They're rather slow, aren't they?"

The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind fire-fighters.  They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime."

The pastor said, "That's so sad.  I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight."

The doctor said, "Good idea.  And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them."

The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"

Comprehending Engineers - Take Four

There was an engineer who had an exceptional gift for fixing all things mechanical.  After serving his company loyally for over 30 years, he happily retired.  Several years later the company contacted him regarding a seemingly impossible problem they were having with one of their multimillion-dollar machines.  They had tried everything and everyone else to get the machine to work but to no avail.  In desperation, they called on the retired engineer who had solved so many of their problems in the past.

The engineer reluctantly took the challenge.  He spent a day studying the huge machine.  At the end of the day, he marked a small "x" in chalk on one particular component of the machine and stated, "This is where your problem is."  The part was replaced and the machine worked perfectly again.

The company received a bill for $50,000 from the engineer for his service.  They demanded an itemized accounting of his charges.

The engineer responded briefly:
             One chalk mark                            $1
             Knowing where to put it     $49,999.

It was paid in full and the engineer retired again in peace.


Comprehending Engineers - Take Five

What is the difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers?  Mechanical Engineers build weapons. Civil Engineers build targets.


Comprehending Engineers - Take Six

The graduate with a Science degree asks, "Why does it work?"
The graduate with an Engineering degree asks, "How does it work?"
The graduate with an Accounting degree asks, "How much will it cost?"
The graduate with an Arts degree asks, "Do you want fries with that?"


Comprehending Engineers - Take Seven

Normal people believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.


Comprehending Engineers - Take Eight

An engineer was crossing a road one day when a frog called out to him and said, "If you kiss me, I'll turn into a beautiful princess".

He bent over, picked up the frog and put it in his pocket.

The frog spoke up again and said, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will stay with you for one week."

The engineer took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and returned it to the pocket.

The frog then cried out, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I'll stay with you and do ANYTHING you want."

Again the engineer took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket.

Finally, the frog asked, "What is the matter?  I've told you I'm a beautiful princess that I'll stay with you for a week and do anything you want.  Why won't you kiss me?"

The engineer said, "Look I'm an engineer.  I don't have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog, now that's cool."

Old Age is Hell!

There were two elderly people living in a Florida mobile home park.  He was a widower and she a widow. They had known one another for a number of years.

 

One evening at a community supper in the big activity centre, these two were seated at the same table, across from one another.  As the meal went on, he made a few admiring glances at her and finally gathered up his courage to say, "Will you marry me?"

 

After about six seconds of careful consideration, she answered.  "Yes, Yes, I will."

 

The meal ended and with a few more pleasant exchanges, they went to their respective homes.  Next morning he was troubled. "Did she say 'yes' or did she say 'no'?" He couldn't remember. Try as he would, he just could not recall - not even a faint memory.


With some trepidation, he went to the telephone and called her.  First, he explained to her that he didn't remember as well as he used to.  Then he reviewed the lovely time they’d had the previous evening.  As he gained a little more courage, he then inquired of her, "When I asked if you would marry me, did you say 'Yes' or did you say 'No'?"  He was delighted to hear her say, "Why, I said, 'Yes, yes I will' and I meant it with all my heart."

 

Then she continued, "And I am so glad that you called, because I couldn't actually remember who had asked me!”

Black sheep of the family

The Australian sheep farmer has just finished lunch one Sunday when there is a knock on the door.  He goes to the door and there stands Joey, one of his Aborigine workers.  Joey is holding a new-born baby . . . . a white baby!

 

“So your wife’s had the little feller then?” says the farmer.

 

“Boss,” says Joey, “The baby’s white and you’re the only white man for hundreds of miles around.”

 

“That doesn’t mean a thing,” says the farmer, “Haven’t you heard of a throw-back?”

 

“No,” says Joey, “What’s that?”

 

The farmer explains,” Look out at that field with all the sheep in it.  What colour are the sheep?”

 

“They’re white,” answers Joey, puzzled.

 

“That’s right,” says the farmer, “but look over there by that big tree.  Do you see the one that’s different?  What colour’s she?”

 

“Well, she’s black,” say Joey.

 

“Exactly,” says the farmer, “Now doesn’t that mean anything to you?”

 “Well, I suppose so,” says Joey, “Look, I’ll do a deal with you.  You leave my wife alone and I’ll leave your sheep alone."

What!  No Scotsman?

Two scaffolders, one English, one Irish, stop for lunch.  

 

Unwrapping his sandwiches the Englishman says, "Christ, not again! Egg and cress! If I get egg and cress again tomorrow I'm throwing myself off the scaffolding."

 

The Irishman opens his sandwiches and says "Jesus, tuna again! If I get the same tomorrow I'll join you!"

 

Next day, both open their sandwiches and both have the same.  Off they jump – splat!

 

At the funeral the English widow sobs, "If only he'd said he didn’t want egg and cress I'd have given him something different!"   She wails. . . . . . . . .

 

"It’s alright for you!" says the Irish wife, "My husband made his own sandwiches. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .”

Did you hear the one about the two old ladies?

Two old ladies were outside their nursing home, having a smoke, when
it started to rain.  One of the ladies pulled out a condom, cut off the end, put it over her cigarette, and continued smoking.

 

The first lady said, “What's that?”

 

The other lady replied, “ It’s called a condom.  It stops my cigarette getting wet.”

 

The first lady said, “That’s marvellous.  Where did you get it?”


The other replied, “You can get them at any chemist.”

 

The next day, the first lady zimmer-frames into her local chemist and announces to the pharmacist that she wants a packet of condoms.


The pharmacist, obviously embarrassed, looks at her strangely (she is, after all, over 80 years of age), but very delicately asks what brand she prefers.


The lady replies, “Doesn't matter, son, just as long as it fits a Camel.”

Thoughts for today

Jesse Jackson, Jim Baker and Jimmy Swaggert have written an impressive new book.  It's called "Ministers Do More Than Lay People."

Transvestite: A guy who likes to eat, drink and be Mary.

The difference between the Pope and your boss, . . . the Pope only expects
you to kiss his ring.

My mind works like lightning - one brilliant flash and it is gone.

The only time the world beats a path to your door is if you're in the
bathroom.

I hate sex in the movies. Tried it once. The seat folded up, the drink
spilled and that ice, well it really chilled her mood.

It used to be only death and taxes were inevitable. Now, of course,
there's shipping and handling, too.

A husband is someone who, after taking the trash out, gives the
impression that he just cleaned the whole house.

My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large
trash can.

A blonde said, "I was worried that my mechanic might try to rip me off.
 I was relieved when he told me all I needed was turn signal fluid."

I'm so depressed.  My doctor refused to write me a prescription for Viagra.
He said it would be like putting a new flagpole on a condemned building.

My neighbour was bit by a stray rabid dog. I went to see how he was and
found him writing frantically on a piece of paper. I told him rabies could be cured and he didn't have to worry about a Will. He said," Will? What Will? I'm making a list of the people I want to bite."

Definition of a teenager? God's punishment for enjoying sex.

As we slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never point the wrong way

Eat your heart out, Dr. Spock!

According to today's regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who were kids in the 50's, 60's, and 70's (and part of the  80's) probably shouldn't have survived.


Our baby cots were covered with brightly coloured  lead-based paint which was promptly chewed and licked.


We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, or latches on doors or cabinets and it was fine to play with pans.
 

When we rode our bikes, we wore no helmets, just flip flops and fluorescent 'clackers' on our wheels.


As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.


Riding in the front passenger seat was a treat.

We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle - tasted the same.

We ate dripping sandwiches, bread and butter pudding and drank fizzy pop  with sugar in it, but we were never overweight because we were always  outside playing.

We shared one drink with four friends, from one bottle or can and no-one actually died from this.


We would spend hours building go-carts out of  scraps and then went top  speed down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into stinging nettles a few times, we learned to solve the problem.

We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back before it got dark. No one was able to reach us all day and no one minded.

We did not have Playstations or X-Boxes, no video games at all. No 99 channels on TV, no videotape movies, no surround sound, no mobile phones, no personal computers, no Internet chat rooms.


We had friends - we went outside and found them.


We played elastics and street rounders, and sometimes that ball really hurt.

We fell out of trees, got cut and broke bones and teeth, and there were no lawsuits. They were accidents.  We learnt not to do the same thing again.

We had fights, punched each other hard and got black and blue – we learned to get over it.

We walked to friend's homes.
 

We made up games with sticks and tennis balls and ate live stuff, and although we were told it would happen, we did not have very many eyes out, nor did the live stuff live inside us forever.

 

We rode bikes in packs of  7 and wore our coats by only the hood.

 

Our actions were our own. Consequences were expected.

 

The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke a law was unheard of.  They actually sided with the law.  Imagine that!


This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers and problem solvers and inventors, ever. The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all.


And if you're one of them - Congratulations!

Please pass this on to others who have had the luck to grow up as real kids, before lawyers and government regulated our lives, for our own good!

No more blonde jokes, please!

A stunning blonde was travelling alone to Houston, Texas in the economy cabin of an aircraft.  Once the plane had taken off she noticed that the first class cabin in front was virtually empty.

 

Thinking that as an attractive blonde she could probably get away with anything, she stood up, walked towards the front of the plane and sat down in a first class seat.

 

She was just doing up her seat belt when a cabin attendant came up to her and said, “Sorry, madam, you can’t sit there.  Your ticket is economy and you have to sit at the back.”

 

“There’s plenty of room.  Surely I can sit here if I want,” came the reply.

 

“Sorry, but you must move!” said the cabin attendant.

 

“Well, I won’t,” said the blonde.

 

The cabin attendant went to fetch the cabin supervisor who also tried to get her to move.

 

The blonde refused to budge.

 

Eventually the captain was called.  He came out of the cockpit , introduced himself to the blonde and then spoke quietly to her so that no-one could here what he said.

 

The blonde undid her seat belt, gathered up her things and, without another word, walked back to the economy cabin, resuming the seat she had left earlier.

 

“Wow!” said the cabin attendant, “What did you say to her?”

 

“Oh” said the pilot, “I just told her that this cabin wasn’t stopping in Houston!”

Why did the chicken cross the road?

SAEED AL SAHAF - Iraqi Head of Information
The chicken did not cross the road. This is a complete fabrication. We do not
even have a chicken.

GEORGE W BUSH
We don't care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the
chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either for us or
against us. There is no middle ground.

COLIN POWELL
Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the
chicken crossing the road.

TONY BLAIR
I agree with George.

HANS BLIX
We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.

DR SEUSS
Did the chicken cross the road?
Did he cross it with a toad?
Yes, the chicken crossed the road,
but why it crossed I've not been told.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR
I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roads without having
 their motives called into question.

GRANDPA SIMPSON
In my day, we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.

OPRAH
Isn't that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken
tell, for the first time, the heart-warming story of how it experienced a
serious case of moulting, and went on to accomplish its dream of crossing the
road.

JOHN LENNON
Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together - in peace.

ARISTOTLE
It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

KARL MARX
It was an historic inevitability.

RONALD REAGAN
What chicken?

SIGMUND FREUD
The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals  your underlying sexual insecurity.

BILL GATES
eChicken2003 will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important
documents, and balance your chequebook - and Internet Explorer is an integral  part of eChicken.

ALBERT EINSTEIN
Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?

BILL CLINTON
What is your definition of chicken?

THE BIBLE
And God came down from heaven, and he said unto the chicken THOU SHALT CROSS THE  ROAD. And the chicken didst cross the road, and there was much rejoicing.

COLONEL SANDERS
Did I miss one?

HOMER SIMPSON

A bed of discontent

Some years ago we had a small cabin cruiser, which we used at weekends and during vacations.  There was sleeping accommodation for the four of us and at a push and if you knew the people well enough (as it was very ‘cosy’ on board) we could have a couple of friends to stay overnight.

 

There was a vee-shaped double berth (nautical term for ‘bed’!) in the bow (that’s the pointy bit at the front), another at the back of the main cabin under the cockpit (that’s the open bit outside at the stern (back of the boat)); and the little dining table could be lowered to the same level as the dinette seating to create a third small double berth. 

 

Whenever friends were staying over we would organise the sleeping arrangements in terms of who would be in the vee berth, or the one under the cockpit, or the dining area berth.

 

To simplify this, I suggested to my wife one day that we should re-label the sleeping areas to ease identification.  I suggested that the sleeping area at the front be referred to as the ‘A’ bed, the one under the cockpit as the ‘B’ bed, and the one in the dining area as the ‘D’ bed.

 

“But where’s the ‘C’ bed?” she asked innocently.

 

“Oh, that’s under the boat where it normally is!”

Women’s Size Study

There is a new study out about women and how they feel about their ass:
 

                      85% of women think their ass is too big.
 

                      10% of women think their ass is too little.
 

                      The other 5% say that they don't care - they love him and would
                      have
 married him anyway.

There are 3 kinds of people: those who can count & those who can't.

 

Never trust a stockbroker who's married to a travel agent. (If anyone gets this one can they send me an email, please?).

A Virus warning!

PLEASE treat this very seriously!

 

If you receive any sort of 'work' at all, whether via email, internet or simply handed to you by a colleague...DO NOT OPEN IT!

 

The Work virus has been circulating around our building for months and those who have been tempted to open it or even look at it have found that their social life is deleted and their brain ceases to function properly. If you do encounter 'work' via email, then to purge this virus, send an email to your boss with the words 'I've had enough of this...I'm off down the pub!'

 

The 'work' should automatically be forgotten by your brain and your career

will now be successfully destroyed. If you receive 'work' in hardcopy form, simply pick up the document, drag to your waste paper bin and deposit there. Put on your coat and skip to the nearest bar with two friends and order three pints of beer.

 

After repeating this action several times, you will find that 'work' will no

longer be of any relevance to you and that 'Scooby Doo' was the greatest

children's cartoon ever.

 

Send this message to others in your mailbox. If you do not have anyone

in your mailbox, then I'm afraid the 'work' virus has corrupted your life.

 

Go out and get one!
