Old Farmer
This fellow had owned this large farm
for several years. He had a large pond in the back forty, had it fixed up nice,
picnic tables, horse shoe courts, basketball court, etc. The pond was fixed for
swimming when it was built.
One evening the old farmer decided to
go down to the pond as he hadn't been there for a while and look it over. As he
neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee.
As he came closer he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny dipping in his
pond.
He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end of the
pond.
One of the women shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave!"
The old man replied, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim or get
out of the pond, I only came to feed my alligators!"

Materialistic Lawyer
A lawyer opened the door of his BMW, when
suddenly a car came along and hit the door, ripping it off completely. When the
police arrived at the scene, the lawyer was complaining bitterly about the
damage to his precious BMW. "Officer, look what they've done to my Beeeeemer!"
he whined.
"You lawyers are so materialistic, you make me sick!" retorted the officer.
"You're so worried about your stupid BMW, that you didn't even notice that your
left arm was ripped off!"
"Oh my," replied the lawyer, finally noticing the bloody left shoulder where
his arm once was, "Where's my Rolex?!?"

Dog's Tale:
Patrons of a pub mourned the passing of the bar's mutt, Spot. They cut off
his tail and framed it as a memorial.
Spot was about to enter heaven when St. Peter stopped him. "Heaven's a place of
perfection," said the saint. "You deserve to enter but not without your tail. Go
back and retrieve it."
In the middle of the night Spot scratched on the door of the pub.
"It's the spirit of our dear Spot!" exclaimed the bartender. "What can I do for
you?"
Spot said he needed his tail to enter heaven.
"Oh, sorry," the barkeeper replied, "but my liquor license doesn't allow me to
retail spirits after hours."

First Wedding
A little boy was attending his first wedding. After the service, his cousin
asked him, "How many women can a man marry?"
"Sixteen," the boy responded.
His cousin was amazed that he had an answer so quickly. "How do you know that?"
"Easy", the little boy said. "All you have to do is add it up, like the Bishop
said: 4 better, 4 worse, 4 richer, 4 poorer."

10 Times Its Usual Size
Sixth grade science teacher Mrs. Samson asks
her class: "Who can tell me which organ of the human body expands to 10 times
its usual size when stimulated?"
Nobody raises a hand, so she calls on the first student to look her way.
"Mary, can you tell me which organ of the human body expands to 10 times its
usual size when stimulated?"
Mary stands up, blushing furiously. "How dare you ask such a question?" she
says. "I'm going to complain to my parents, who will complain to the principal,
who will have you fired!"
Mrs. Sampson is shocked by Mary's reaction, but undaunted. She asks the class
the question again, and this time Sam raises his hand.
Yes, Sam?" says Mrs. Sampson. "Ma'am, the correct answer is the iris of the
human eye."
"Very good, Sam. Thank you." Mrs. Sampson then turns to Mary and says, "Mary,
I have 3 things to tell you: first, it's clear that you have NOT done your
homework. Second, you have a DIRTY mind. And third, I fear one day you are going
to be sadly disappointed."

Noisy Neighbors
Donald MacDonald from the Isle of Mann went to study at an English university
and was living in the hall of residence with all the other students there.
After he had been there a month, his mother came to visit him.
"And how do you find the English students, Donald?" she asked.
"Mother," he replied, "they're such terrible, noisy people. The one on that
side keeps banging his head on the wall and won't stop. The one on the other
side screams and screams all night."
"Oh Donald! How do you manage to put up with these awful noisy English
neighbors?"
"Mother, I do nothing. I just ignore them. I just stay here quietly, playing
my bagpipes."

FINE:
This
is the word we use at the end of any argument that we feel we are right about
but need to shut you up. NEVER use fine to describe how a woman looks. This will
cause you to have one of those arguments.
FIVE MINUTES:
This
is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is
going to last before you take out the trash, so I feel that it's an even trade.
NOTHING:
This means something and you should be on your toes. "Nothing" is usually used
to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside
down, and backwards. "Nothing" usually signifies an argument that will last
"Five Minutes" and end with the word "Fine".
GO AHEAD (with raised eyebrows):
This
is a dare. One that will result in a woman getting upset over "Nothing" and will
end with the word "Fine".
GO AHEAD (normal eyebrows):
This means "I give up" or "do what you want because I don't care". You
will get a raised eyebrow "Go Ahead" in just a few minutes, followed by
"Nothing" and "Fine" and she will talk to you in about "Five Minutes" when she
cools off.
LOUD SIGH:
This is not actually a word,
but is still often a verbal statement very misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh"
means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment and wonders why she is wasting
her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing".
SOFT SIGH:
Again,
not a word, but a verbal statement. "Soft Sighs" are one of the few things that
some men actually understand. She is content. Your best bet is to not move or
breathe and she will stay content.
THAT'S OKAY:
This
is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can say to a man. "That's
Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before paying you retributions
for what ever it is that you have done. "That's Okay" is often used with the
word "Fine" and used in conjunction with a raised eyebrow "Go Ahead". At some
point in the near future when she has plotted and planned, you are going to be
in some mighty big trouble.
PLEASE DO:
This is not a statement, it is an offer. A woman is giving you
the chance to come up with whatever excuse or reason you have for doing whatever
it is that you have done. You have a fair chance to tell the truth, so be
careful and you shouldn't get a "That's Okay".
THANKS:
A
woman is thanking you. Do not faint, just say you're welcome.
THANKS A LOT:
This
is much different than "Thanks". A woman will say, "Thanks A Lot" when she is
really ticked off at you. It signifies that you have hurt her in some callous
way, and will be followed by the "Loud Sigh". Be careful not to ask what is
wrong after the "Loud Sigh", as she will only tell you "Nothing".

Train Riding
This is a transcript between a commuter and the railroad company, regarding services of the latter.
"Gentlemen: I have been riding trains daily for the last twenty-two years, and the service on your line seems to be getting
worse every day. I am tired of standing in the aisle all the time on a 14-mile trip. I think the transportation system is worse
that that enjoyed by people 2,000 years ago. - Yours truly, A Commuter"
The Reply to the above:
"Dear Sir: We received your letter with reference to the shortcomings of our service and believe you are somewhat confused in
your history. The only mode of transportation 2,000 years ago was by foot. - Sincerely, Western Railways"
And the Counter-Reply was:
"Gentlemen: I am in receipt of your letter, and I think you are the ones who are confused in your history. If you will refer to the
Bible, Book of David, 9th Chapter, you will find that Balaam rode to town on his ass... That, gentlemen, is something I have not
been able to do on your train in the last twenty-two years!

Housekeeping Simplified
1. Vacuuming too often weakens the carpet fibers. Say this with a serious
face, and shudder delicately whenever anyone mentions Carpet Fresh.
2. Dust bunnies cannot evolve into dust rhinos when disturbed. Rename the
area under the couch "The Galapagos Islands" and claim an ecological exemption.
3. Layers of dirty film on windows and screens provide a helpful filter
against harmful and aging rays from the sun. Call it an SPF factor of 5 and
leave it alone.
4. Cobwebs artfully draped over lampshades reduces the glare from the bulb,
thereby creating a romantic atmosphere. If your spouse points out that the light
fixtures need dusting, simply look affronted and exclaim, "What? And spoil the
mood?"
5. In a pinch, you can always claim that the haphazard tower of unread
magazines and newspapers next to your chair provides the valuable Feng Shui
aspect of a tiger, thereby reducing your vulnerability. Roll your eyes when you
say this.
6. Explain the mound of pet hair brushed up against the doorways by claiming
you are collecting it there to use for stuffing hand sewn play animals for
underprivileged children.
7. If unexpected company is coming, pile everything unsightly into one room
and close the door. As you show your guests through your tidy home, rattle the
door knob vigorously, fake a growl and say, "I'd love you to see our Den, but
Fluffy hates to be disturbed and the shots are SO expensive."
8. If dusting is REALLY out of control, simply place a showy urn on the
coffee table and insist that "THIS is where Grandma wanted us to scatter her
ashes..."
9. Don't bother repainting. Simply scribble lightly over a dirty wall with an
assortment of crayons, and try to muster a glint of tears as you say, "Junior
did this the week before that unspeakable accident... I haven't had the heart to
clean it..."
10. Mix one-quarter cup pine-scented household cleaner with four cups of
water in a spray bottle. Mist the air lightly. Leave dampened rags in
conspicuous locations. Develop an exhausted look, throw yourself onto the couch,
and sigh, "I clean and I clean and I still don't get anywhere..."

There was a blonde who found herself sitting
next to a Lawyer on an airplane. The lawyer just kept bugging the blonde wanting
her to play a game of intelligence. Finally, the lawyer offered her 10 to 1
odds, and said every time the blonde could not answer one of his questions, she
owed him $5, but every time he could not answer hers, he'd give her $50.00. The
lawyer figured he could not lose, and the blonde reluctantly accepted.
The lawyer first asked, "What is the distance between the Earth and the
nearest star?"
Without saying a word the blonde handed him $5. then the blonde asked, "What
goes up a hill with 3 legs and comes back down the hill with 4 legs?"
Well, the lawyer looked puzzled. He took several hours, looking up everything
he could on his laptop and even placing numerous air-to-ground phone calls
trying to find the answer. Finally, angry and frustrated, he gave up and paid
the blonde $50.00
The blonde put the $50 into her purse without comment, but the lawyer
insisted, "What is the answer to your question?"
Without saying a word, the blonde handed him $5.

My Own Grandpa
Many many years ago
when I was twenty three,
I got married to a widow
who was pretty as could be.
This widow had a grown-up daughter
who had hair of red.
My father fell in love with her,
and soon the two were wed.
This made my dad my son-in-law
And changed my very life.
My daughter was my mother,
For she was my father's wife.
To complicate the matters worse,
Although it brought me joy,
I soon became the father
Of a bouncing baby boy.
My little baby then became
A brother-in-law to dad.
And so became my uncle,
Though it made me very sad.
For if he was my uncle,
Then that also made him brother
To the widow's grown-up daughter
Who, of course, was my step-mother.
Father's wife then had a son,
Who kept them on the run.
And he became my grandson,
For he was my daughter's son.
My wife is now my mother's mother
And it makes me blue.
Because, although she is my wife,
She is my grandma too.
If my wife is my grandmother,
Then I am her grandchild.
And every time I think of it,
It simply drives me wild.
For now I have become
The strangest case you ever saw.
As the husband of my grandmother,
I am my own grandpa.
