Thunderbird Posted August 25, 2008 Report Posted August 25, 2008 A Canadian friend sent this to me years agoi just came across it againI still love it/divert-your-course.png The story is false one I'm afraid. It's an old joke that has been around since I was in the US Navy in the early 80's The version was between an American seaman maning the light house and an admiral on a on a battle ship. The US Navy has been navigating with satilite GPS since the 1970's. But it was a good joke. :hihi: Quote
freeztar Posted August 27, 2008 Report Posted August 27, 2008 A senior citizen drove his brand new convertible car out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he pushed it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left. 'Amazing,' he thought as he flew down I-95, pushing the pedal even more. Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw the state trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, 'What am I doing? I'm too old for this,' and pulled over to await the trooper's arrival. Pulling in behind him, the trooper walked up to the convertible, looked at his watch and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go." The old gentleman paused. Then said, "Three years ago, my wife ran off with a State Trooper. I thought you were bringing her back." "Have a good day, Sir," replied the trooper. Quote
freeztar Posted August 27, 2008 Report Posted August 27, 2008 A blonde teenager, wanting to earn some extra money for the summer, decidedto hire herself out as a 'handy-woman' and started canvassing a nearbywell-to-do neighborhood. She went to the front door of the first house, and askedthe owner if he had any odd jobs for her to do. 'Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint my porch,' he said, 'How muchwill you charge me?'Delighted, the girl quickly responded, 'How about $50?' The man agreed and told her that the paint brushes and everything she wouldneed was in the garage. The man's wife, hearing the conversationsaid to her husband, 'Does she realize that our porch goes ALL the wayaround the house?' He responded, 'That's a bit cynical, isn't it?' The wife replied, 'You're right. I guess I'm starting to believe all thosedumb blonde jokes we've been getting by e-mail lately.' Later that day, the blonde came to the door to collect her money. 'You'refinished already?' the startled husband asked. 'Yes, the blonde replied, and Ieven had paint left over, so I gave it two coats.' Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50.00 and handed it toher along with a ten dollar tip. 'And by the way, ' the blonde added, 'it's not a Porch, it's a Lexus.' Quote

Moontanman Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 Once upon a time, in a land far far away A beautiful self assured princess happened on a frog as she sat contemplating ecological issues on the shore of a beautiful unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle The frog jumped into the princess' lap and said "elegant lady, I was once a handsome prince until an evil witch cast a spell on me and turned me into a frog One kiss from you however will turn me back into the dapper prince I once was! and then my sweet we can marry! and set up house keeping in your castle with my mother where you can prepare my meals clean my clothes, bear my children and forever feel grateful and happy doing so" That night, As the princess dined sumptuously on lightly sautéed frog legs seasoned in white wine and onion cream sauce She chuckled and thought to herself I don't f#@kin think so.....

7DSUSYstrings Posted August 28, 2008 Report Posted August 28, 2008 1.I study chemistry quite a bit. In my studies (and practice as well) I've been involved with olefins, i.e. linoleum, margarine, etc., so progressively I had the fortune of studying some interesting things about the butter making industry. This led me to "Land-O-Lakes" technologies in the latest ChemTech bulletins. In the year 2000, they put into service the fastest, most efficient butter making machine in the last hundred years. Does anyone know what they called that machine? 2.In Niles, Michigan, where I was born, there's Silverbrook Cemetery where I visit my parents' graves from time to time. Most of the stones have to be level with the gfround for mowing, but there are still quite a few mausoleums. One not to far from our family site has an apple tree that grew right out of the sepulcher, extending through the vents. The family forbade its removal, so it is a constant nuisance to the keepers as it drops apples constantly in the fall. Can you guess what they call the apples? 3.What do you call a sporting event that intoxicates the average philistine, planting him in a chair from which he can't manage to get up? 4.What do you call a sporting event that draws thousands upon thousands of monkeys that have no tail? 5.If a fellow wants to marry the girl of his dreams in two places of the country at the exact same moment, what kind of wedding suit must he order from his tailor? The above are original Dr. C anecedotes...:hyper: Quote

Moontanman Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 A very old man lay dying in his bed. In death's doorway, he suddenlysmelled the aroma of his favorite chocolate chip cookies wafting up thestairs. He gathered his remaining strength and lifted himself from the bed.Leaning against the wall, he slowly made his way out of the bedroom, andwith even greater effort forced himself down the stairs, gripping therailing with both hands. With labored breath, he leaned against the door frame, gazing into thekitchen. Were it not for death's agony, he would have thought himselfalready in heaven. There, spread out upon newspapers on the kitchen table, were literallyhundreds of his favorite chocolate chip cookies. Was it heaven? Or was it one final act of heroic love from his devotedwife, seeing to it that he left this world a happy man? Mustering one great final effort, he threw himself toward the table. Theaged and withered hand, shaking, made its way to a cookie at the edge ofthe table, when it was suddenly smacked with a spatula by his wife. "Stay out of those you old fool," she yelled, "they're for the funeral!!!" Quote
Moontanman Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 While she was "flying" down the road yesterday, a woman passed over a bridge only to find a policeman with a radar gun on the other side. The cop pulled her over, walked up to the car with that classic patronizing smirk we all know and love, asked... "What's your hurry?" To which she replied, "I'm late for work" "Oh yeah," said the cop, "what do you do?" "I'm a rectum stretcher" she replied The cop stammered, "A what? A rectum stretcher? And just what does a rectum stretcher do?" "Well", she said, "I begin by inserting one finger, then I work my way up to two fingers, then three, then four, then I work my whole hand in. I work it from side to side until I can get both hands in, then I slowly but surely stretch it until it's about six feet wide." "And just what the hell do you do with a six foot *******" he asked? "You give him a radar gun and put him behind a bridge"... Traffic ticket, $95.00Court costs, $45.00Look on the cops face, priceless! Quote
Moontanman Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, surely i can't look that old. Well.....you'll love this one! My name is alice smith and i was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist. I noticed his dds diploma, which bore his full name. Suddenly, i remembered a tall, handsome, dark haired boy with the same name had been in my high school class some 30-odd years ago. Could he be the same guy that i had a secret crush on, way back then? Upon seeing him, however, i quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, gray haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate, after he examined my teeth, i asked him if he had attended morgan park high school . 'yes, yes i did. I'm a mustang! ' he gleamed with pride. 'when did you graduate?' i asked he answered, in 1975. Why do you ask? 'you were in my class!' i exclaimed. He looked at me closely. Then that ugly, old, bald, wrinkled, fat ***, gray haired, decrepit, son of a ***** asked.... 'what did you teach??? Quote

Michaelangelica Posted September 5, 2008 Report Posted September 5, 2008 Bathtub Test During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director how do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized. 'Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub.' 'Oh, I understand,' said the visitor. 'A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.' 'No.' said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?' Retrieved from "http://www.jestersring.ca/j/Bathtub_Test"Category: Logic JokesBathtub Test - Jester's Ringfor the Canadians among usNorth American Creation Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for 6 days. Eventually Michael the Archangel found him, resting on the 7th day. He inquired of God, "Where have you been?" God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction and proudly pointed downwards, through the clouds, "Look Michael, look what I've made." Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said, "What is it?" "It's a planet," replied God, "and I've put LIFE on it. I'm going to call it EARTH and it's going to be a great place of balance." "Balance?" inquired Michael, still confused. God explained, pointing to the different parts of EARTH, "For example, Northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth while Southern Europe is going to be poor. Over there, I've placed a continent of white people, and over there is a continent of black people." God continued, pointing to different countries, "This one will be extremely hot and arid while this one will be very cold and covered in ice." The Archangel, impressed by God's work, then pointed to a large landmass in the top corner and asked, "What's that one?" "Ah," said God, "That's Canada, the most glorious place on EARTH. There's beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, streams and an exquisite coast-line. The people from Canada are going to be modest, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be found traveling the world. They'll be known throughout the world as diplomats and carriers of peace." Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then proclaimed, "What about balance, God? You said there will be balance?" God replied wisely, "Wait until you see the loud-mouth bastards I'm putting next to them."This joke was also featured at Patriotism Canada.Retrieved from "http://www.jestersring.ca/j/North_American_Creation" Categories: Canadian Jokes | God Jokes Quote
