How
much do pirates pay for their earrings?…A buccaneer.
Why
do seagulls fly over the sea?...Because if they flew over the bay, they’d be
bagels.
A
man was driving around the block in a sweat because he had an important meeting
and couldn't find a parking place. Around and around he drove, but no one was
pulling out. Looking up toward heaven, he said "Lord, take pity on me. If
you find me a parking place I will go to church every Sunday for the rest of my life and give up drinking!"
Miraculously,
a parking place appeared. As the man pulled into the space, he looked up to
heaven once more and said…"Never mind. I found one."
Hopelessly
lost, the man pulled his car into an abandoned gas station in the desert and
got out. The only creature there was an owl sitting on a cactus. “Owl, are you
able to tell me the quickest way to town?”
“Are
you walking or driving?” asked the wise owl.
“I’m
driving.”
“Well,
that’s the quickest way.”
“Watson…look up at the sky
and tell me what you see.”
Watson replied: “I see a
million stars.”
“What does that tell you?”
Holmes questioned.
Watson pondered for a
minute…then replied:
“Astronomically, it tells me
that there are millions of galaxies and potentionally billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in
Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the
time is approximately a quarter past three.
Theologically, I can see that God is all-powerful and that we are small
and insignificant. Meteorologically, I
suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?” Watson asked.
Holmes was silent for a
moment…And then spoke:
“Watson, you twit!…Someone
has stolen our tent!”
Dying
man: You know, honey, you’ve always been with me through all my troubles.
Through all my bad times, you’ve been there. When I got fired, you were there.
When my business went down the toilet, you were there. When I had the heart
attack, you were there. You know something?
Woman:
What?
Dying
man: I think you’re bad luck
There
was a magician working on a cruise ship. He had a parrot that was always
ruining his act, saying in the middle of a trick, “The card is up his sleeve,”
or “He has a dove in his pocket,” or “He slipped it through a hole in his hat.”
One
day the ship sank. The parrot and the magician found themselves together on a
life raft. For several days, the parrot sat silent and stared at the magician.
On the fourth day, the parrot said, “Okay, I give up. What did you do with the
ship?”
Jill,
a blonde, approaches the edge of a river. On the other side she sees another
blonde. Jill asks her, “How do I get to the other side of the river?”
The
blonde responds, “You’re already on the other side.”
A
man walks into a cardiologist’s office…
Man:
“Excuse me. Can you help me? I think I’m a moth.”
Doctor:
“You don’t need a cardiologist. You need a psychiatrist.”
Man:
“Yes, I know.”
Doctor:
“So why did you come in here if you need a psychiatrist?”
Man:
“Well, the light was on...”
Knock,

Two guys are out walking
their dogs. One has a German Shepard and one has a Chihuahua. It’s a summer day
and it’s very hot.
Mr. Chihuahua: “Man, it is
HOT! I could sure stand a cold beer.”
Mr. Shepard: “I know what you
mean. Hey, I know a place. Just follow
me.”
They walk a couple blocks and
get to a bar and with a big sign outside announcing…”NO DOGS ALLOWED.”
Mr Chihuahua: “Look at that
sign! We can’t go in there with these
dogs.”
Mr. Shepard: “I’ve done this
before. Listen. I’ll go in first. Just watch me and do what I do and there’s
no problem.”
So the guy with the Chihuahua
stands at the door and the guy with the German Shepard goes inside and sits
down on a bar stool, the dog sitting on the floor next to him. The bar tender
comes over.
Bartender: “ ‘Afternoon, buddy.
What can I do for you?”
Guy: “I’d like a cold beer.”
Bartender: “I’m sorry, but I
can’t serve you with the dog in here.”
Guy: “It’s a seeing-eye dog.”
Bartender: “Well…okay then.”
And he serves him a beer. The
guy with the Chihuahua walks in, sits down on a bar stool. The Chihuahua sits on the floor next to him.
The bartender comes over.
Bartender: “ ‘Afternoon, buddy.
What can I do for you?”
Guy: “I’d like a cold beer.”
Bartender: “I’m sorry, but I
can’t serve you with the dog in here.”
Guy: “It’s a seeing-eye dog.”
The bartender leans over the
bar to take a closer look at the dog.
Bartender: “But it’s a
Chihuahua!”
Guy: “You mean, they gave me
a Chihuahua?!!” (Thanks to Bob Devine)

A
frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. The nameplate indicates that
she is Patricia Whack.
"Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday."
Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says he is
Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that he knows the bank manager.
Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral.
The
frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain
elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.
Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank
manager and disappears into a back office.
She tells the manager: "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims
to know you and wants to borrow $30,000. He wants to use this as collateral."
She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is
this?"
The bank manager looks back at her and says...
"It's a knickknack, Patty Whack.
Give the frog a loan.
His old man's a Rolling Stone."

“Ten?
Ten what? Months? Days?

doctor interrupts, “nine…eight…”

Two
eggs, a bagel and a sausage walk into a bar. “Bartender, my friends and I would
like a cold one,” says one of the eggs. “Sorry,” the barman replies. “We don’t
serve breakfast.”
Patient:
Doctor, you told me I have a month to live and then you sent me a bill for
$1,000! I can’t pay that before the end of the month!
Doctor:
Okay, you have six months to live.
This
guy goes into his barber, and he’s all excited. He says, “I’m going to go to
Rome. I’m flying on Alitalia and staying at the Rome Hilton, and I’m going to
see the Pope.” The barber says, “Ha! Alitalia is a terrible airline, the Rome
Hilton is a dump, and when you see the Pope, you’ll probably be standing in
back of about 10,000 people.”
So
the guy goes to Rome and comes back. His barber asks, “How was it?”
“Great,”
he says. “Alitalia was a wonderful airline. The hotel was great. And I got to
meet the Pope.”
“You
met the Pope?” said the barber.
“I
bent down to kiss the Pope’s ring.”
“And
what did he say?”
“He
said, ‘Where did you get that crummy haircut?”
I
fired my masseuse today…she rubbed me the wrong way.

At
a convention of blondes, a speaker insisted that the “dumb blonde” myth is all
wrong. To prove it he asked one young volunteer, “How much is 101 plus 20?”
The
blonde answered, “120.”
“No,”
he said, “that’s not right.”
The
audience called out, “Give her another chance.”
So
the speaker asked the blonde, “How much is 10 plus 13?”
Slowly
the blonde replied, “16.”
“Sorry,”
he said, shaking his head.
“Give
her another chance,” the audience called out again.
The
speaker responded slowly, “Okay then, how much is 2 plus 2?”
The
blonde sheepishly replied, “Five?”
The
audience called out, “Give her one more chance!”
People
who jump off a Paris bridge are in Seine.
Two guys are walking through
the woods and come across this big deep hole.
"Wow...that looks deep."
"Sure does... toss a few pebbles in there and see how deep it is."
They pick up a few pebbles and throw them in and wait... no noise.
"Jeeez. That is REALLY deep... here.. throw one of these great big rocks
down there. Those should make a noise."
They pick up a couple football-sized rocks and toss them into the hole
and wait... and wait. Nothing.
They look at each other in amazement. One gets a determined look on his
face and says, "Hey...over here in the weeds, there's a railroad tie.
Help me carry it over here. When we toss THAT sucker in, it's
GOTTA make some noise."
The two drag the heavy tie
over to the hole and heave it in.
Not a sound comes from the
hole.
Suddenly, out of the nearby woods, a goat appears, running like the
wind. It rushes toward the two men, then right past them, running as
fast as it's legs will carry it. Suddenly it leaps in the air and into the
hole.
The two men are astonished with what they've just seen...
Then, out of the woods comes a farmer who spots the men and ambles over.
"Hey... you two guys seen my goat out here?"
"You bet we did!
Craziest thing I ever seen. It came running like crazy and just
jumped into this hole!"
"Nah", says the farmer, "That couldn't have been MY goat. My
goat was
chained to a railroad tie."

E-mail
from God
One day God was looking down at Earth and saw all of the evil that
was going on. He decided to send an angel to check it out.
He called on a female angel and sent her to Earth for a short time.
When she returned she told God, "Yes, it is bad on Earth - 95% is bad
and 5% is good".
God thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I had better send
a male angel - to get both points of view."
When the male angel returned he told God, "Yes, the Earth is in serious
decline - 95% bad and 5% good".
God knew this was quite serious. He decided to E-mail the 5% that were
good to encourage them; to provide that little something to help them keep
going.
Do you know what that E-mail said?
You mean you didn't get one either???!!!
