THE BUM …
A bum approaches a well dressed gentleman on the
street. "Hey, Buddy, can you spare two dollars?"
The well-dressed gentleman responds, "You are not
going to spend in on liquor are you?"
"No, sir, I don't drink," retorts the bum.
"You are not going to throw it away in some
crap game, are you?" asks the gentleman.
"No way, I don't gamble," answers the bum.
"You wouldn't waste the money at a golf
course for greens fees, would you?" asks the man.
"Never," says the bum, "I don't play golf."
The man asks the bum if he would like to
come home with him for a home cooked meal. The
bum accepts eagerly. While they are heading for the
man's house, the bum's curiosity gets the better of
him. "Isn't your wife going to be angry when she
sees a guy like me at your table?"
"Probably," says the man, "but it will be worth it. I
want her to see what happens to a guy who doesn't
drink, gamble or play golf."

THEY HAD NO PRIVACY
As a young married couple, a husband and a wife
lived in a cheap housing complex near the base
where he was working. Their chief complaint was
that the walls were paper-thin and that they had no
privacy. This was painfully obvious when one
morning the husband was upstairs and the wife was
downstairs on the telephone. She was interrupted by
the doorbell and went to greet her neighbor.
"Give this to your husband," he said thrusting
a roll of toilet paper into her hands. "He's been
yelling for it for 15 minutes!"

A HUSBAND WHO NEVER FEELS ASHAMED
"I'm ashamed of the way we live," a young wife says
to her lazy husband who refuses to find a job. "My
father pays our rent. My mother buys all of our food.
My sister buys our clothes. My aunt bought us a car.
I'm just so ashamed."
The husband rolls over on the couch. "And
you damn well should be," he agrees. "Those two
worthless brothers of yours ain't never give us a
cent!"

THE NEIGHBORS CAN NOT SEE YOU
Having been married ten years and still living in an
apartment, the wife would often complain about
anything, as she was tired of saving every penny to
buy a "dream home".
Trying to placate her, the husband found a
new
apartment,
within
their
budget.
However, after the first week, she began
complaining again.
"Joel," she said, "I don't like this place at all.
There are no curtains in the bathroom. The
neighbors can see me every time I take a bath."
"Don't worry." replied her husband. "If the
neighbors do see you, they'll buy curtains."

WHERE’S THE SHOE?
One night a fellow drove his secretary home after
she had imbibed a little too much at an office
reception. Although this was an innocent gesture, he
decided not to mention it to his wife, who tended to
get jealous easily.
The next night the man and his wife were
driving to a restaurant. Suddenly he looked down
2
and spotted a high-heel shoe half hidden under the
passenger seat. Not wanting to be conspicuous, he
waited until his wife was looking out her window
before he scooped up the shoe and tossed it out of
the car.
With a sigh of relief, he pulled into the
restaurant parking lot. That's when he noticed his
wife squirming around in her seat. "Honey," she
asked, "have you seen my other shoe?"

DUMMY HUSBAND
A man asked his wife, "if you could have anything
in the world for one day, what would you want?"
"I'd love to be six again," she replied.
On the morning of her birthday, he got her
up bright and early and off they went to a local
theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in
the park: the Death Slide, the Screaming Loop, the
Wall of Fear, everything there was! Wow! Five
hours later she staggered out of the theme park, her
head reeling and her stomach upside down. Off to a
McDonald's they went, where her husband ordered
her a Big Mac along with extra fries and a refreshing
chocolate shake. Then it was off to a movie: the
latestHollywood blockbuster, hot dogs, popcorn,
Pepsi Cola and M & M's. What a fabulous
adventure!
Finally she wobbled home with her husband
and collapsed into bed. He leaned over and lovingly
asked, "Well, dear, what was it like being six
again?"
One eye opened. "You dummy, I meant my
dress size."

A NEW MACHINE
The doctor asked the expectant father to try out a
machine he had invented that transferred labour
pains from the mother to the father. Billy agreed and
the machine was set up. But although it was set to its
highest setting, Billy felt not

Later that day he went home to pick up a few
items his wife wanted and discovered the milkman
lying on his door step groaning in pain.

DRUNK
Bob visited his friend Joe's house and was amazed at
how well Joe treated his wife. He told her several
times how attractive she was, complimented her on
her culinary skills and showered her with hugs and
kisses.

"Gee," Bob remarked to his friend, "you
really make a big fuss over your wife."
"I started to appreciate her more about six
months ago," Joe said. "It has revived our marriage,
and we couldn't be happier."
Inspired by Joe's story, Bob hurried home,
hugged his wife, told her how much he loved her,
and said he wanted to hear all about her day. Instead
she burst into tears.
"Darling," Bob said, "whatever's the matter?"
"This has been the worst day I've had for a
long time," she replied. "This morning Billy fell off
his bike and hurt his ankle, then the washing
machine broke down. Now, to top it off, you come

HOW TO BUY A PRESENT?
A man walked into a department store and told an
assistant he'd like to buy a present for his wife.
"Certainly, sir," replied the assistant.
"Perhaps a dress or a blouse?"
"Anything," said the man.
"And in what colour?"
"It doesn't matter."
"Size?"
"Immaterial."
Seeing the assistant's confusion, the man
explained that whenever he bought his wife
something she would always take it back to the shop
and exchange it.
"Why don't you get a gift voucher instead?"
the assistant asked him.
"Oh no," said the man. "That would be too
impersonal."

RELATIVES ?
A couple drove several miles down a country road,

An earlier discussion had led to an argument, and

YOUR HORSE CALLED LAST NIGHT
A woman came up behind her husband while he was
enjoying his morning coffee and slapped him on the
back of the head. "I found a piece of paper in your
trouser pocket with the name Marylou written on it,"
she said, furious. "You'd better have an
explanation."
"Calm down, dear," the man replied.
"Remember last week when I was at the races? That
was the name of the horse I backed."

The next morning, his wife whacked him

WE’VE SAVED ENOUGH MONEY
After years of scrimping and saving, a husband told
his wife the good news: "Darling, we've finally
saved enough to buy what we started saving for in
1979."
"You mean a brand new Jaguar?" she asked
eagerly.
"No," he replied, "a 1979 Jaguar."

DEATHBED CONFESSION
Jake was on his deathbed. His wife, Susan, was
maintaining a vigil by his side. She held his fragile
hand, and tears ran down her face. Her praying
roused him from his slumber. He looked up and his
pale lips began to move slightly.
"My darling Susan," he whispered.
"Hush, my love," she said. "Rest. Don't talk."
He was insistent. "Susan," he said in his tired
voice. "I have something I must confess to you."
"There's nothing to confess," replied the
weeping Susan. "Everything's all right, go to sleep."
"No, no. I must die in peace, Susan. I slept
with your sister, your best friend, and your mother."
"I know," she replied. "That's why I poisoned

AFTER THE HONEY MOON
A young couple got married and left on their

immediately called her mother.
"Well, how was the honeymoon?" asked the
mother.
"Oh mamma!" she exclaimed. "The
honeymoon was wonderful! So romantic!" No
sooner had she spoken the words then she burst out
crying. "But mamma . . . as soon as we returned,
Sam started using the most horrible language. He's
been saying things I've never heard before! All these
awful 4-letter words! You've got to come get me and
take me home... "
"Now Sarah . . ." her mother answered. "Calm
down! Tell me,what could be so awful? What 4letter words has he been using?"
"Please don't make me tell you, mamma." wept
the daughter. "I'm so embarrassed! They're just too
awful! You've got to come get me and take me
home... please mamma!"
"Darling, you must tell me what has you so
upset . . . Tell your mother these horrible 4-letter
words!"
Still sobbing, the bride replied, "Oh, mamma

I HAVE TO SHOW HER …
Everybody's heard of the Air Force's ultra-highsecurity,super-secret base in Nevada, known simply
as "Area 51?"
Late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at
Area 51 were very surprised to see a Cessna landing
at their "secret" base. They immediately impounded
the aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation
room.
The pilot's story was that he took off from
Vegas, got lost, and spotted the Base just as he was
about to run out of fuel. The Air Force started a full
FBI background check on the pilot and held him
overnight during the investigation.
By the next day, they were finally convinced
that the pilot really was lost and wasn't a spy. They
gassed up his air-plane, gave him a terrifying "youdid-not-see-a-base" briefing, complete with threats
of spending the rest of his life in prison, told him
Vegas was that-a-way on such-and-such a heading,
and sent him on his way.
The next day, to the total disbelief of the Air
Force, the same Cessna showed up again. Once
again, the MP's surrounded the plane...only this time
there were two people inside.
The same pilot jumped out and said, "Do
anything you want to me, but my wife is in the plane
and you have to tell her where I was last night!"

What do

"You'll know tonight." he said.

DON’T MESS WITH THE MAID
A rich Beverly Hills lady got very angry at her
French maid.After a long list of stinging remarks
about her shortcomings as a cook and housekeeper,
she dismissed the maid.
The maid, with her Gaelic ancestry, couldn't
allow such abuse to go unanswered. "Your husband

considers me a better housekeeper and cook than
you, Madam. He has told me himself."
The rich woman just swallowed and said
nothing. "And furthermore," the angry girl
continued, "I am better in bed than you!"
"And I suppose my husband told you that,
too?"
"No, Madam," said he maid. "Not your
husband, the mail man!"

FRIEND FOR DINNER
"Honey," said this husband to his wife, "I invited a
friend home for supper."
"What? Are you crazy? The house is a mess,
I haven't been shopping, all the dishes are dirty, and
I don't feel like cooking a fancy meal!"
"I know all that."
"Then why did you invite a friend for
supper?"
"Because the poor fool's thinking about
getting married."

Jill complained to Nina, "Rosey told me that you
told her the secret I told you not to tell her."
"Well," replied Nina in a hurt tone, "I told

"Oh dear!" sighed Jill. "Well, don't tell her I

THE STATUE
A woman was in bed with her lover when
she heard her husband opening the front door.
"Hurry!" she said. "Stand in the corner." She
quickly rubbed baby oil all over him and then she
dusted him with talcum powder. "Don't move until I
tell you to," she whispered. "Just pretend you're a
statue."
"What's this honey?" the husband inquired as
he entered the room.
"Oh, its just a statue," she replied
nonchalantly. "The Smiths bought one for their
bedroom. I liked it so much, I got one for us too."
No more was said about the statue, not even
later that night when they went to sleep. Around two
in the morning the husband got out of bed, went to
the kitchen and returned a while later with a
sandwich and a glass of milk. "Here," he said to the
'statue', "eat something. I stood like an idiot at the
Smith's for three days and nobody offered me so
much as a glass of water.

WISDOM TEETH
One day a man walks into a dentist's office and asks
how much it will cost to extract wisdom teeth.
"Eighty dollars," the dentist says.
"That's a ridiculous amount," the man says.
"Isn't there a cheaper way?"
"Well," the dentist says, "if you don't use an
anaesthetic, I can knock it down to $60."
"That's still too expensive," the man says.
"Okay," says the dentist. "If I save on
anesthesia and simply rip the teeth out with a pair of
pliers, I could get away with charging $20."
"Nope," moans the man, "it's still too much."
"Hmm," says the dentist, scratching his head.
"If I let one of my students do it for the experience, I
suppose I could charge you just $10."
"Marvelous," says the man, "book my wife
for next Tuesday !"

HOW DID YOU DIE ?
Two men waiting at the pearly gates strike
up a conversation. The first man asks the second.
"So, how'd you die?"
"I froze to death," says the second.
"That's awful," says the first man. "How does
it feel to freeze to death?"
"It's very uncomfortable at first", says the
second man. "You get the shakes, and you get pains
in all your fingers and toes. But eventually, it's a
very calm way to go. You get numb and you kind of
drift off, as if you're sleeping. How about you, how
did you die?"
"I had a heart attack," says the first man.
"You see, I knew my wife was cheating on me, so
one day I showed up at home unexpectedly. I ran up
to the bedroom, and found her alone, knitting. I ran
down to the basement, but no one was hiding there,
either. I ran up to the second floor, but no one was
hiding there either. I ran as fast as I could to the
attic,
and just as I got there, I had a massive heart attack
and died."
The second man shakes his head. "That's so
ironic," he says.
"What do you mean?" Asks the first man.
"If you had only stopped to look in the
freezer, we'd both still be alive."

Since the wife is eight months into her pregnancy,
the husband has to sleep on the floor to avoid any
regrettable mistake, which might happen pretty
easily, for he has been desperate for quite a while
now...
Just before lying down on the bed, she
glances at him and sees the poor guy curls up on the
floor, eyes stare widely into the empty air, filled
with hopeless desire...
Feeling sorry for her husband, she opens the
top drawer of the cabinet, takes out a fifty dollar bill,
and gives it to him, "Awww, my honey is so
depressed... here, take this and go to the woman next
door, she will let you sleep with her tonight... and
remember that this happens only once... ok?... don't
think about it again."
The husband rolls his eyes in disbelief, but
afraid that she may change her mind, he grabs the
money and leaves quickly. A few minutes later, he
returns, hands the bill back to the wife and says with
much disappointment,
"She said this is not enough, she wants sixty."
The wife's face slowly turns red with anger,
"Damn that bitch... when she was pregnant and her
husband came over here... I only charged him
fifty..."

My parents recently retired. Mom always wanted to
learn to play the piano, so dad bought her a piano for
her birthday.A few weeks later, I asked how she was
doing with it.
"Oh, we returned the piano." said My Dad, "I
persuaded her to switch to a clarinet instead."
"How come?" I asked.
"Because," he answered, "with a clarinet, she
can't sing."

MEDICAL MIRACLE
An 80 year woman married an 85-year-old man.
After about six months together, the woman wasn't
feeling well and she went to her doctor.
The doctor examined and said,
"Congratulations Mrs. Jones, you're going to be a
mother."
"Get serious doctor, I'm 80."
"I know," said the doctor, "This morning, I
would have said it was impossible, but this
afternoon you are a medical miracle."
"I'll be darned," she replied and stormed out of
the office. She walked down the hall and around the
corner to where the telephones were. In a rage, she
dialed her husband.
"Hello," she heard in his familiar halting
voice.
She screamed, "You rotten SOB. You got me
pregnant!"
There was a pause on the line. Finally, her
husband answered, "Who's calling please?"

Wife pipes up, "You were to going 70. I've

"Shut up would ya!" mumbles the guy.

ROMANCE
An older couple was lying in bed one night.
The husband was falling asleep but the wife felt
romantic and wanted to talk. She said, "You use to
hold my hand when we were courting."
Wearily he reached across, held her hand for a
second, then tried to get back to sleep.
A few moments later she said, "Then you used
to kiss me." Mildly irritated, he reached across, gave
her a peck on the cheek and settled down to sleep.
Thirty seconds later she said, "Then you used
to bite my neck." Angrily, he threw back the bed
covers and got out of bed.
"Where are you going?" she asked.
"To get my teeth!"

SEX WITH GAS
There was this gas station in "redneck country"
trying to increase its sales, so the owner put up a
sign saying, "Free Sex with Fill-up." Soon, a
customer pulled in, filled his tank, and then asked
for his free sex.
The owner told him to pick a number from 1
to 10, and if he guessed correctly, he would get his
free sex.
The buyer then guessed 8 and the proprietor
said, "No, but you were close. The number was 7.
Sorry, no free sex this time, but maybe next time."
Some time thereafter, the same man, along
with his buddy this time, pulled in again for a fillup, and again he asked for his free sex. The
proprietor again gave him the same story, and asked
him to guess the correct number.
The man guessed 2 this time and the
proprietor said, "Sorry, it was 3. You were close, but
no free sex this time."
As they were driving away, the driver said to
his buddy, "I think that game is rigged, and he
doesn't really give away free sex."
The buddy replied, "No, it's not rigged...my
wife won twice last week."

TRAILING MY HUSBAND
"So," Jane asked the detective she had hired. "Did
you trail my husband?"
"Yes ma'am. I did. I followed him to a bar, to
an out-of-the-way restaurant and then to an
apartment."
A big smile crossed Jane's face. "Aha! I've
got him!" she said gloating. "Is there any doubt what
he was doing?"
"No ma'am." replied the sleuth. "It's pretty
clear that he was following you."

APPLYING FOR SOCIAL SECURITY
A retired gentleman went into the social security
office to apply for Social Security.
After waiting in line a long time he got to the
counter. The woman behind the counter asked him
for his drivers license to verify his age. He looked in
his pockets and realized he had left his wallet at
home. He told the woman that he was very sorry but
he seemed to have left his wallet at home. "Will I
have to go home and come back now?" he asks.
The woman says, "Unbutton your shirt."
So he opens his shirt revealing lots of curly
silver hair.
She says, "That silver hair on your chest is
proof enough for me," and she processed his Social
Security application.
13
When he gets home, the man excitedly tells
his wife about his experience at the Social Security
office.
She said, "You should have dropped your
pants, you might have qualified for disability, too."

TEN DOLLARS IS TEN DOLLARS
Stumpy Grinder and his wife Martha were
from Portland,Maine. Every year they went to the
Portland Fair and every year Stumpy said, "Ya
know, Martha, I'd like to get a ride in that airplane."
And every year, Martha would say "I know,
Stumpy, but that airplane ride costs ten dollars .. and
ten dollars is ten dollars."
So one year Stumpy says, "Martha, I'm 71
years old, and if I don't go this time I may never go."
Martha replies, "Stumpy, that there airplane ride is
ten dollars ... and ten dollars is ten dollars."
So the pilot overhears then and says, "Folks,
I'll make you a deal. I'll take you both up for a ride.
If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say
ONE WORD, then I won't charge you. But just ONE
WORD and it's ten dollars."
They agree and up they go... the pilot does all
kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a
word is heard. He does it one more time, and there is
still no word... so he lands.
He turns to Stumpy as they come to a stop and
says, "By golly, I did everything I could think of to
get you to holler out, but you didn't."
And Stumpy replies "Well, I was gonna say
something when Martha fell out ... but ten dollars is
ten dollars."

HOW TO PLEASE A WOMAN
A group of girlfriends are on vacation when they see
a 5- story hotel with a sign that reads: "For Women
Only." Since they are without their boyfriends and
husbands, they decide to go in.
The bouncer, a very attractive guy, explains
to them how it works. "We have 5 floors. Go up
floor-by-floor,and once you find what you are
looking for, you can stay there. It's easy to decide
since each floor has a sign telling you what's inside."
So they start going up and on the first floor
the sign reads: "All the men on this floor are short
and plain." The friends laugh and without hesitation
move on to the next floor.
The sign on the second floor reads: "All the
men here are short and handsome." Still, this isn't
good enough, so the friends continue on up.
They reach the third floor and the sign reads:
"All the men here are tall and plain." They still want
to do better, and so, knowing there are still two
floors left, they continued on up.
On the fourth floor, the sign is perfect: "All the
men here are tall and handsome." The women get all
excited and are going in when they realize that there
is still one floor left. Wondering what they are
missing, they head on up to the fifth floor.
There they find a sign that reads: "There are no
men here. This floor was built only to prove that
there is no way to please a woman."

UGLY BABY
A woman gets on a bus holding a baby.
The bus driver says, "That's the ugliest baby
I've ever seen."
In a huff, the woman slammed her fare into
the fare box and took an aisle seat near the rear of
the bus. The man seated next to her sensed that she
was agitated and asked her what was wrong. "The
bus driver insulted me," she fumed.
The man sympathized and said: "Why, he's a
public servant and shouldn't say things to insult
passengers."
"You're right" she said. "I think I'll go back
up there and give him a piece of my mind."
"That's a good idea" the man said. "Here, let

WHAT DO YOU GET FOR 25$ ?
George and Harriet were married twenty-five years.
They decided to celebrate with a trip to Las Vegas.
When they entered the hotel/casino and registered, a
sweet young woman dressed in a very short skirt,
16
became very friendly. George brushed her off rather
rudely.
Harriet objected, "George, she was nice, that
young woman, and you were so rude."
"Harriet, she's a prostitute."
"I don't believe you. That sweet young
lady?"
"Let's go up to our room and I'll prove it."
In their room, George called down to the
desk and asked for Bambi to come to room 1217.
"Now," he said, "you hide in the bathroom
with the door open just enough
to hear us, okay?" She did. Soon, there was a knock
on the door. George opened it and Bambi walked in,
swirling her hips provocatively.
"So, I see you're interested after all," she said.
George asked, "How much do you charge?"
"$125 basic rate, $100 tips for special
services."
George was taken aback. "$125! I was
thinking more in the range of $25."
Bambi laughed derisively. "You must really
be a hick if you think you can
buy sex for that price."
"Well," said George, "I guess we can't do
business.Goodbye."
After she left, Harriet came out of the
bathroom. "I just can't believe it."
George said, "Let's forget it. We'll go have a
drink, then eat dinner."
At the bar, as they sipped their cocktails,
Bambi came up behind George
pointed slyly at Harriet, and said, "See what you get
for $25?"

I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT
GIRL
A friend asked me the other day why i never
got married.
I replied "Well, I guess I just never met the
right woman... I guess I've been looking for the
perfect girl."
"Oh, come on now," said my friend. "Surely
you have met at least one girl
that you wanted to marry."
"Yes, there was one girl... once. I guess she
was the one perfect girl -the only perfect girl I really ever met. She was just
the right everything... I really mean that she was the
perfect girl for me."
"Well, why didn't you marry her?" asked my
friend.
I shrugged my shoulders and replied, "She
was looking for the perfect man."

TWO DEALERS AND A VERY ATTRACTIVE
LADY
Two bored casino dealers are waiting at a craps
table. A very attractive lady comes in and wants to
bet $20,000 on a single roll of the dice.
She says, "I hope you don't mind, but I feel
much luckier when I'm bottomless."
With that, she strips naked from the waist
down, and rolls the dice while yelling, "Momma
needs a new pair of pants!"
She then begins jumping up and down and
hugging and kissing each of the dealers. "YES! I
WIN! I WIN!"
With that, she picks up her money and
clothes and quickly leaves. The dealers just stare at
each other dumbfounded.
Finally one of them asks, "What did she roll
anyway?"
The other answers, "I don't know! I thought
YOU were watching!"

TWO NUNS IN AN ALLEY
Two nuns went out of their convent to sell

Mathematical and the other one was known as Sister
Logical. It was getting dark and they were still far
away from the convent.
Sister Logical: Have you noticed that a man
has been following us for the past half-hour?
Sister Mathematical: Yes, I wonder what he
wants.
Sister Logical: It's logical. He wants to rape
us.
Sister Mathematical: Oh, no! At this rate he
will reach us in 15 minutes at the most. What can we
do?
Sister Logical: The only logical thing to do,
of course, is to walk faster.
Sister Mathematical: It's not working.
Sister Logical: Of course it's not working.
The man did the only logical thing. He started to
walk faster too.
Sister Mathematical: So, what shall we do? At
this rate he will reach us in one minute.
Sister Logical: The only logical thing we can
do is split. You go that way and I'll go this way. He
cannot follow us both.
So the man decided to follow Sister Logical.
Sister Mathematical arrived at the convent and was
18
worried about what had happened to Sister Logical.
Then Sister
Logical arrived, breathless and flushed.
Sister Mathematical: "Sister Logical!
Thank God you are here! Tell me what happened!"
Sister Logical: The only logical thing
happened. The man couldn't follow us both, so he
followed me.
Sister Mathematical: Yes, yes! But what
happened then?
Sister Logical: I started to run as fast as
I could and he started to run as fast as he could.
Sister Mathematical: And?
Sister Logical: The only logical thing
happened. He reached me.
Sister Mathematical: Oh, dear! What did you
do?
Sister Logical: The only logical thing to do.
I lifted my dress up.
Sister Mathematical: Oh, Sister! What did
the man do?
Sister Logical: The only logical thing to do.
He pulled down his pants.
Sister Mathematical: Oh, no! What happened
then?
Sister Logical: Isn't it logical, Sister? A nun
with her dress up can run much faster than a man
with his pants down........

GOD AND EVE IN THE GARDEN
One day in the Garden of Eden, Eve calls out to
God... "Lord, I have a problem!"
"What's the problem, Eve?"
"Lord, I know you've created me and have
provided this beautiful garden and all of these
wonderful animals, and that hilarious comedic
snake, but I'm just not happy."
"Why is that, Eve?" came the reply from
above.
"Lord, I am lonely. And I'm sick to death of
apples."
"Well, Eve, in that case, I have a solution. I
shall create a man for you."
"What's a 'man,' Lord?"
"This man will be a flawed creature, with
many bad traits. He'll lie,cheat, and be vainglorious;
all in all, he'll give you a hard time. But, he'll be
bigger, faster, and will like to hunt and kill things.
He will look silly aroused, but since you've been
complaining, I'll create him in such in a way that he
will satisfy your physical needs. He'll be witless and
19
will revel in childish things like fighting and kicking
a ball about. He won't be too smart, so he'll also
need your advise to think properly.”
"Sounds great," says Eve, with an ironically
raised eyebrow.
"What's the catch, Lord?"
"Yeah, well.... you can have him on one
condition."
"What's that, Lord?"
"As I said, he'll be proud, arrogant, and selfadmiring . . . So you'll have to let him believe that I
made him first . . . So, just remember . . . it's our
secret . . . Woman to woman."

Then one day the doorbell rang yet again. She
opened the door to find a man, with no arms and no
legs, lying on the mat. Perplexed, she asked, "Who
are you and what do you want?"
"Hi," said the man "Your search is over, for I
am the man of your dreams. I've got no arms, so I
can't beat you up and I've got no legs, so I can't run

I TOOK WHAT I WANT
One summer's evening Paddy & Mick are on their
way to the pub for their usual drink.
"I’m a bit tired tonight," says Mick. "I think
I'll just have a little lie down in this ditch and have a
little sleep. You can wake me up on your way home
later."
"Right, you are," says Paddy, and they
separate.
At the end of the evening, Paddy comes out
of the pub and starts walking back to collect Mick
from his ditch. He hasn't gone far when Mick rolls
up beside him driving a big shiny Volvo.
"Where did you get that lovely car from?!"
asks Paddy, astonished.
"Well, I'll tell you. It was like this," says
Mick. "There I was lying in the ditch having a nice
snooze and I had just turned over onto me other side
when up drives a lovely lady in her nice new Volvo
and asks me if I'd like to come for a drive with her.
Well, I thought, why not? It's a lovely evening for a
drive. So in I got. She drove along for a bit and then
turned off into a field. She got out of the car, took
off all her clothes and said,
"Take what you want!" So I took the Volvo.

VENGEANCE
Two high school sweethearts who went out together
for four years in high school were both virgins; they
enjoyed losing their virginity with each other in 10th
grade. When they graduated, they wanted to both go
to the same college but the girl was accepted to a
college on the east coast, and the guy went to the
west coast. They agreed to be faithful to each other
and spend anytime they could together.
As time went on, the guy would call the girl
and she would never be home, and when he wrote,
she would take weeks to return the letters. Even
when he emailed her, she took days to return his
messages.
Finally, she confessed to him she wanted to
date around. He didn't take this very well and
increased his calls, letters, and emails trying to win
back her love. Because she became annoyed, and
now had a new boyfriend, she wanted to get him off
her back.
So, what she did is this: she took a picture of
her having sex with her new boyfriend's and sent it
to her old boyfriend with a note reading, "I found a
new boyfriend, leave me alone." Well, needless to
say, this guy was heartbroken but, even more so,
was pissed. So, what he did next was awesome.
He wrote on the back of the photo the
following, "Dear Mom and Dad, having a great time
at college, please send more money!" and mailed the
picture to her parents.

RAVISHING GIRL AND 3 MEN
In a train compartment, there are 3 men and
a ravishing young girl. The four passengers join in
conversation, which very soon turns to the erotic.
Then, the young girl proposes, "If each of
you will give me $1, I will show you my legs."
The men, charmed by this young girl, all pull
a buck out of their wallet, and then the girl pulls up
her dress a bit to show her legs.
Then she says, "If each of you gentlemen
will give me $10, I'll show you my
thighs."
Men being what they are, they all pull out a ten
dollar bill. The girl pulls up her dress all the way to
her undies.
Conversation continues, and the men, a bit
excited, have all taken off their coats. Then the
young girl says, "If you will give me $100, I will
show you where I was operated on for appendicitis."
Naturally, all three fork over the money. Then the
girl turns to the
window and points to a hospital in the distance and
says, "There!"

She thinks about the proposition for a
minute, and then replies,"Yes, I would sleep with a
man I don't know for a million dollars."
The man then asks,"Would you sleep with me
for fifty cents?"
Insulted, the woman replies, "Of course not!!
How could you ask me such a thing?"

I’M DYING FROM AIDS
A son and father went to see a doctor since
the father was getting very ill. The doctor told the
father and son that the father was dying from cancer.
The father, who was an Irishman, turned to
his son and said, "Son, even on this gloomy day, it’s
our tradition to drink to health as it is in death, so
let's go to the pub and celebrate my demise."
22
Reluctantly, the son follows his father to the
local pub. There, while enjoying their ale, the father
sees some old friends and tells them he is dying
from AIDS.
Shocked, the son turns to his father and says,
"Father, it is not AIDS you are dying from, it is
cancer, why did you lie to those men?"
The father replies, "Aye, my son, you are
right; but I don't want those guys shagging your
mom when I'm gone."

THE PROPOSAL
One evening, a young woman came home from a
date, rather sad. She told her mother, "Anthony
proposed to me an hour ago."
"Then why are you so sad?" her mother
asked.
"Because he also told me he is an atheist.
Mom, he doesn't even believe there's a Hell."
Her mother replied, "Marry him anyway.
Between the two of us, we'll show him just how
wrong he is."

INHERITANCE
Two friends meet on a Miami street. One looked
forlorn, and almost on the verge of tears. The other
man said, "Hey, how come you look like the whole
world caved in?"
The sad fellow said, "Let me tell you. Three
weeks ago, an uncle died and left me forty thousand
dollars."
"That's not bad."
"Hold on, I'm just getting started. Two weeks
ago, a cousin I never knew kicked the bucket , and
left me eighty-five thousand dollars."
"Sounds like you should be grateful."
"Last week my great aunt passed away. I
inherited almost a
quarter of a million."
"Then how come you look so glum?"
"This week . . . nothing!"

HE HAS NO PLANS
A young woman brings home her fiance to meet her
parents. After dinner, her mother tells her father to
find out about the young man. The father invites the
fiancee for a drink.
"So what are your plans?" the father asks the
young man.
"I am a Torah scholar," he replies.
"A Torah scholar. Hmmm," the father says.
"Admirable, but what will you do to provide a nice
23
house for my daughter to live in, as she's
accustomed to?"
"I will study," the young man replies, "and
God will provide for us."
"And how will you buy her a beautiful
engagement ring, such as she deserves?" asks the
father.
"I will concentrate on my studies," the young
man replies, "God will provide for us."
"And children?" asks the father. "How will you
support children?"
"Don't worry, sir, God will provide," replies
the fiance.
The conversation proceeds like this, and
each time the father questions, the young idealist
insists that God will provide. Later, the mother asks,
"How did it go, Honey?"
The father answers, "He has no job and no
plans, but he thinks I'm God."
