Whistle the first seven notes of "It's a Small World" incessantly. 3. Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside ask: "Got enough air in there?" 4. Offer name tags to everyone getting on the elevator. Wear yours upside-down. 5. Stand silent and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off. 6. When arriving at your floor, grunt and strain to yank the doors open, then act embarrassed when they open by themselves. 7.

On the highest floor, hold the door open and demand that it stay open until you hear the penny you dropped down the shaft go "plink" at the bottom. 9.

He attacked two people as they exited the store and made off with the contents of their pockets. Unfortunately, Artie was still down on his luck - the contents added up to a dollar.

Here are three great ones I just got from a freind this morning: A magician worked on a cruise ship. The audience was different each week, so the magician did the same tricks over and over again. One problem: The captain's parrot saw the shows each week and began to understand how the magician did every trick. Once he understood, he started shouting in the middle of the show: "Look, it's not the same hat!", "Look, he's hiding the flowers under the
table." "Hey, why are all the cards the ace of spades?" The magician was furious but couldn't do anything. It was, after all, the captain's parrot. Then the ship sank. The magician found himself on a piece of wood in the middle of the sea with, as fate would have it, the parrot. They stared at each other with hatred but did not utter a word. This went on for a day and then another and then another. Finally on the fourth day, the parrot could not hold back: "OK, I give up. Where's the d**m ship?" ---------------------------------------------------------------I hope that this isn't considered too risque. If it is, someone please let me know and I will gladly remove it: Jake was going to be married to Jill so his father sat him down for a little fireside chat. He says "Jake, let me tell you something. On my wedding night, in our honeymoon suite, I took off my pants and handed them to your mother. I then said "Here - try these on." So, she did and she said "These are too big, I can't wear them." I replied "Exactly. I wear the pants in this family and I always will." Ever since that night we have never had any problems." Hmmmmm....... thinks Jake. He decided that might be a good thing to try himself. On his wedding night, Jake takes off his pants, hands them to Jill and says "Here, try these on." So, she does and sure enough she says "These are too big, I can't wear them." Jake then replies "Exactly. I wear the pants in this family and I always will and I don't want you to ever forget that." Jill then takes her pants off and hands them to Jake saying "Here, now you try on mine." So, he does and says "I can't get into your pants." Jill THEN says, "Exactly, and if your don't change your attitude, you NEVER will!" -------------------------------------------------------------------------You know you're living in 2004 when...

Well I hope you understand it considering my confusing English... but this is the only English joke i know. Did you read the papers this morning? And have you seen the article about the

They kept on hearing these strange sounds coming out of the grave of Mozart... yeah, and nobody could figure out what these sounds were... until one great man found out that the sounds were Mozart's own songs... played backwards!!

I heard this crappy joke the other day.. Let me see if I can remember it. There is a plane. On board is the President, a 12 year old girl, an old man, and the smartest man in the world. They're flying along when the pilots die and the plane starts to crash. They go to find that there is only three parachutes. The president says "Im the President the world needs me, I should go first!" He takes one and jumps. The smartest man in the world Says. "Im the smartest man alive. The world needs me, too!" So he takes one and jumps. The old man turns to the girl and says "I've lived a long life, kid. You go ahead and take the last one." The girls says "dont worry, we can both go" "How do you figure?" The old man replied. The girl says "The smartest man in the world just grabbed my backpack." Is that not the worst joke ever?

Married women come home, see whats in bed and go to the fridge. ----------------------------------------------------------------a dyslexic man walked into a bra. ------------------------------------------------------------------Blonde says to her husband, "honey, I have this killer jigsaw puzzle and I can't figure how to get it started...will you help me?" husband
replies, "what is it supposed to be a picture of when it's finished?" blonde says, "the picture on the box shows a tiger." blonde takes husband by the hand and leads him over to the table where she has the pieces spread all over... Husband takes a quick glance at the pieces on the table. He then gently takes his wife by the hand and leads her to a chair and motions her to sit down. Husband says to blonde wife, "honey, first of all no matter what we do, we are not going to be able to make this in to anything resembling a tiger. Secondly, dear, I advise you to sit back and relax....lets have a cup of coffee.....(he sighs long and deep)...while I put all the frosted flakes back in the box."

After being interviewed by the school administration, the eager teaching prospect said: "Let me see if I've got this right. You want me to go into that room with all those kids and fill their every waking moment with a love for learning. And I'm supposed to instill a sense of pride in their ethnicity, modify their disruptive behavior, observe them for signs of abuse and even censor their T shirt messages and dress habits. You want me to wage a war on drugs and sexually transmitted diseases, check their backpacks for weapons of mass destruction, and raise their self esteem. You want me to teach them patriotism, good citizenship, sportsmanship, and fair play, how and where to register to vote, how to balance a checkbook, and how to apply for a job. I am to check their heads for lice, maintain a safe environment, recognize signs of antisocial behavior, offer advice, write letters of recommendation for student employment and scholarships, encourage respect for the cultural diversity of others, and, oh yeah, always make sure that I give the girls in my class 50 percent of my attention. My contract requires me to work on my own time after school and evenings grading papers. Also, I must spend my summer vacation at my own expense, working toward advance certification and a Master's degree. And on my own time you want me to attend committee and faculty meetings, PTA meetings, and participate in staff development training. I am to be a paragon of virtue, larger than life, such that my
very presence will awe my students into being obedient and respectful of authority. And I am to pledge allegiance to family values and this current administration. You want me to incorporate technology into the learning experience, monitor web sites, and relate personally with each student. That includes deciding who might be potentially dangerous and/or liable to commit a crime in school. I am to make sure all students pass the state mandatory exams, even those who don't come to school regularly or complete any of their assignments. Plus, I am to make sure that all of the students with handicaps get an equal education regardless of the extent of their mental or physical handicap. And I am to communicate regularly with the parents by letter, telephone, newsletter, and report card. All of this I am to do with just a piece of chalk, a computer, a few books, a bulletin board, and a big smile AND on a starting salary that qualifies my family for food stamps! You want me to do all of this and you expect me NOT TO PRAY?"

ShadowWalker Top Ten Ways to Freak Out Your Roommate 10) Collect potatoes. Paint faces on them and give them names. Name one after your roommate. Separate your roommate's potato
08-24-2004 02:51 PM
from the others. Wait a few days, and then bake your roommate's potato and eat it. Explain to your roommate, ''He just didn't belong.'' 9) Move everything to one side of the room. Ask your roommate if he knows how much an elephant weighs, and look at the floor on the empty side of the room with concern. 8 ) Draw a tiny black line on your nose. Make it bigger every day. Look at it and say, ''The hair, it's growing. Growing!'' 7) Buy some knives. Sharpen them every night. While you're doing so, look at your roommate and mutter, ''Soon, soon....'' 6) Collect hundreds of pens and pile them on one side of the room. Keep one pencil on the other side of the room. Laugh at the pencil. 5) Tell your roommate, ''I've got an important message for you.'' Then pretend to faint. When you recover, say you can't remember what the message was. Later on, say, ''Oh, yeah, I remember!'' Pretend to faint again. Keep this up for several weeks. 4) While your roommate is out, glue your shoes to the ceiling. When your roommate walks in, sit on the floor, hold your head, and moan. 3) Make a sandwich. Don't eat it, leave it on the floor. Ignore the sandwich. Wait until your roommate gets rid of it, and then say, ''Hey, where the heck is my sandwich!?'' Complain loudly that you are hungry. 2) Every time your roommate walks in yell, ''Hooray! You're back!'' as loud as you can and dance around the room for five minutes. Afterwards, keep looking at your watch and saying, ''Shouldn't you be going somewhere?'' 1) Talk back to your Rice Krispies. All of a sudden, act offended, throw the bowl on the floor and kick it. Refuse to clean it up, explaining, ''No, I want to watch them suffer.'''

Apples & Wine Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy...So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality they're amazing. They have to wait for the right man to come along--the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree. And men? They are like a fine wine. They start out as grapes, and its up to women to stomp the shit of out them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase. As she fumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse. "So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked. "No," she replied, "but my husband refused to come shopping with me, so I figured this was the most legal evil thing I could do to him."

A captian and his crew were out at sea when all of sudden a pirate ship began to attack them. The Captain turned to his first mate and said "Bring me my red shirt!". The first mate was confused but ran to get the captains red shirt anyway. After a long battle the crew defeated the pirates and escaped to safety. The next day they were attacked by two pirate ships. Again the captian turned to his first mate and said "bring me my red shirt!" Again the confused first mate ran for his red shirt. After another brutal battle they again escaped to safety. That night during supper the crew asked the captian why he always wore his red shirt in battle. "If I am wearing my red shirt during a fight and I get wounded, you will not see the blood and will continue to fight bravely." The captian responded to his loyal crew. The next morning the captain woke to find they were surounded by ten heavily armed pirate ships. The crew all looked to the captain expecting for the usual request of his red shirt. The terrified captian turns to his first mate and asks "Bring me my brown pants!!"

Jim was driving home from work when all of a sudden he began to feel the "rumble". He pulled over at the first gas station he could find and ran straight for the bathroom. Half way through the event, another man entered the stall next to his. "Hows it going?" The man asked from inside his stall. Jim was never one for "bathroom chatter" but didnt want to come off as a jerk, so he answered the question as best he could. "O.K. Thanks." "You sound a little stressed out. Can I give you a hand?" The man said from his stall. Jim didn't really know how to respond to that question, but again he didn't want to sound rude. "No, Im fine." Jim said, forcing a giggle despite his discomfort. "Its no trouble. Ill be over as soon as Im done here." Came the response from the other stall. "NO!" Jim said, starting to get a little freaked out by the strangeness of the man. "Alright then. I love you!" The man responded from his stall. Now Jim was really freaking out, and began to fear the man might be dangerous. In his panic, Jim responded with the first thing that came to mind. "I love you too."
The man in the next stall responded. "Listen, I'm going to have to call you back. There is a crazy person in the stall next to me who keeps talking to me." Wish a flush, the man got up and left Jim alone to finish up.

News Release: Teacher Arrested! At New York's Kennedy airport today, an individual later discovered to be a public school teacher was arrested trying to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a calculator. At a morning press conference, Attorney general John Ashcroft said he believes the man is a member of the notorious al-gebra movement. He is being charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction. "Al-gebra is a fearsome cult," Ashcroft said. "They desire average solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of absolute value. They use secret code names like 'x'and 'y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'there are 3 sides to every triangle'." When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes." :agree:

The new priest is nervous about hearing confessions, so he asks the older priest to sit in on his sessions. The new priest hears a couple of confessions, then the old priest asks him to step out of the confessional for a few suggestions. The old priest suggests, "Cross your arms over your chest, and rub your chin with one hand.... and try saying things like "Yes, I see," and "Yes, go on," and "I understand." The new priest crosses his arms, rubs his chin with one hand and repeats all the suggested remarks to the old priest. The old priest says, "Now, don't you think that's a little better than slapping your knee and saying, "No :curse:... what happened next??"

Here are a couple of dorky ones. I hope I get them right... A fish swims into a concrete wall. What does he say? -"Dam!" A proton and an electron are making out. The neutron says, "Get a neucleus!" Two men are out walking there dogs. They get thirsty after awhile and decide to stop in a bar. They see a no dogs allowed sign, but don't want to leave their dogs outside. One guy gets a brilliant idea. He puts on a pair of sunglasses and starts to walk in the bar. The bartender says, "Hey, no dogs allowed!" The guy says, "But this is my seeing-eye dog." The bartender lets him in. The second guy decides to try it out. He puts on his sunglasses and tries to enter. The bartender says again, "No dogs allowed!" The second guy says, "But this is my seeing-eye dog." The bartender says, "That's a chihuahua." The second guy says, "They gave me a chihuahua?!?" Some jumper cables walk into a bar. The bartender says, "I'll let you guys in as long as you don't start anything." That's all I have for now.

Four guys walked into a bar. The fifth one ducked. :fireworks -------------------------------One afternoon a wealthy lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate. He asked one man "Why are you eating grass?" "We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass." "Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you" the lawyer said. But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over here, under that tree." "Bring them along," the lawyer replied. Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You come with us also." The second man, in a pitiful voice then said, "But sir, I also have a wife and SIX children with me!" "Bring them all, as well," the lawyer answered. They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine was. Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you." The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place - the grass is almost a foot high!"

Learning to Swear A 5 year old and a 4 year old are upstairs in their bedroom. "You know what?" says the 5 year old, "I think it's about time we start swearing." The 4 year old nods his head in approval. "When we go downstairs for breakfast I'm gonna say 'hell', and you say 'ass',ok?"
"Ok." The 4 year old agrees with enthusiasm. The mother walks into the kitchen and asks the 5 year old what he wants for breakfast. "Aw, hell mom, I guess I'll have some Cheerios." WHACK!! He flies out of his chair, tumbles across the kitchen floor, gets up, and runs upstairs crying his eyes out. The Mom looks at the 4 year old and asks with a stern voice, "And what do YOU want for breakfast, young man?!" "I don't know," he blubbers, "but you can bet your ass it won't be Cheerios."

A stranger, seated next to little Tommy on the plane, turned to the boy and said, "let's talk, I've heard that flights will go quicker if you strikeup a conversation with your fellow passenger." Little Tommy, who had just opened his picture book, closed it slowly and said to the stranger, "What would you like to discuss?" Oh, I don't know, said the stranger, How about politics? Should we keep Bush or elect Kerry? "Ok", said Little Tommy. "that could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat grass. The same stuff. yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces a clump of manure. Why do you suppose that is? Jeez, said the stranger, I have no idea!! Well then, said Little Tommy, how is it that you feel qualified to discuss who should run the country when you don't know shit? Now if you don't mind, I would like to finishing reading my book....

Little Girl Helps Paramedic It was late at night and Heidi, who was expecting her second child, was home alone with her 3-year old daughter Kathleen. When Heidi started going into labor, she called "911." Due to a power outage at the time, only one paramedic responded to the call. The house was very, very dark so the paramedic asked Kathleen to hold a flashlight high over her mommy so he could see while he helped deliver the baby. Very diligently, Kathleen did as she was asked. Heidi pushed and pushed, and after a little while Connor was born. The paramedic lifted him by his little feet, and spanked him on his bottom. Connor began to cry. The paramedic then thanked Kathleen for her help, and asked the wide-eyed 3-year old what she thought about what she had just witnessed. Kathleen quickly responded, "He shouldn't have crawled in there in the first place. Smack him again!"

A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel sticking out of his pants. The bar tender saw him and asked, "Do you know you have a steering wheele sticking out of your pants?" The pirate looked at him and said, "Arrr, and it's driving me nuts."

Plaster of Parish A crumbling old church building needed remodeling, so, during his sermon, the preacher made an impassioned appeal looking directly at the richest man in town. At the end of the sermon, the rich man stood up and announced, "Pastor, I will contribute $1,000." Just then, plaster fell from the ceiling and struck the rich man on the shoulder. He promptly stood back up and shouted, "Pastor, I will increase my donation to $5,000." Before he could sit back down, plaster fell on him again, and again he virtually screamed, "Pastor, I will double my last pledge." He sat down, and a larger chunk of plaster fell on his head. He stood up once more and hollered, "Pastor, I will give $20,000!" This prompted a deacon to shout, "Hit him again, Lord! Hit him again!"

The Toilet seat It isn't widely known, but the first toilet seat was invented by a Polish scientist in the 18th century. The invention was later modified by a Jewish inventor who put a hole in the seat. Government Emblem The government today announced that it is changing its emblem from an Eagle to a condom because it more accurately reflects the government's political stance. A condom stands up to inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of pricks, and gives you a sense of security while you're actually being screwed. Damn - it just doesn't get more accurate than that. Ten Commandments The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse! You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians! It creates a hostile work environment.
Zero Gravity When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion developing a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside-down, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 300 C. The Russians used a pencil. Your taxes are due again--enjoy paying them. Cows Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington. And they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country, not to mention Osama Bin Ladin. Our Constitution "They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years and hell, we're not using it anymore."

18 vs. 65 If I could, I'd enlist today and help my country track down those responsible for killing thousands of innocent people in New York City and Washington, DC But, I'm over 50 now and the Armed Forces say I'm too old to track down terrorists. You can't be older than 35 to join the military. They've got the whole thing backwards. Instead of sending 18-year-olds off to fight, they ought to take us old guys. You shouldn't be able to join until you're at least 35. For starters: Researchers say 18-year-olds think about sex every 10 seconds. Old guys only think about sex a couple of times a day, leaving us more that 28,000 additional seconds per day to concentrate on the enemy. Young guys haven't lived long enough to be cranky, and a cranky soldier is a dangerous soldier. If we can't kill the enemy we'll complain them into submission. "My back hurts!" "I'm hungry!" "Where's the remote control?" An 18-year-old hasn't had a legal beer yet and you shouldn't go to war until you're at least old enough to legally drink. An average old guy, on the other hand, has consumed 126,000 gallons of beer by the time he's 35 and a jaunt through the desert heat with a backpack and M-60 would do wonders for the old beer belly. An 18-year-old doesn't like to get up before 10 a.m. Old guys get up early every morning to pee.
If old guys are captured we couldn't spill the beans because we'd probably forget where we put them. In fact, name, rank, and serial number would be a real brainteaser. Boot camp would actually be easier for old guys. We're used to getting screamed and yelled at and we actually like soft food. We've also developed a deep appreciation for guns and rifles. We like them almost better than naps. They could lighten up on the obstacle course however. I've been in combat and didn't see a single 20-foot wall with rope hanging over the side, nor did I ever do any pushups after completing basic training. I can hear the Drill Sergeant now, "Get down and give me...er...one." And the running part is kind of a waste of energy. I've never seen anyone outrun a bullet. An 18-year-old has the whole world ahead of him. He's still learning to shave, to actually carry on a conversation, and to wear pants without the top of his butt crack showing and his boxer shorts sticking out. He's still hasn't figured out that a pierced tongue catches food particles, and that a 400-watt speaker in the back seat of a Honda Accord can rupture an eardrum. All great reasons to keep our sons at home to learn a little more about life before sending them off to possible death. Let us old guys track down those dirty rotten cowards who attacked our hearts on September 11. The last thing the enemy would want to see right now is a couple of million old farts with attitudes.
