Supplies!!

A foreman points out a huge pile of sand and says:

To the Italian guy, "You're in charge of sweeping."
To the Scotsman he says, "You're in charge of shovelling."
And to the Chinese guy, "You're in charge of supplies."

So the foreman goes away for a couple hours and when he returns, the pile of sand is untouched.

He asks the Italian, "Why didn't you sweep any of it?"

The Italian replies, "I no hava no broom. You saida to the Chinese a fella that he wasa ina charge of supplies, but he hasa disappeared and I no coulda finda him nowhere."

Then the foreman turns to the Scotsman and says, and you, I thought I told you to shovel this pile.

“The Scotsman replies, "Aye, ye did lad, boot ah couldnay get meeself a shoovel! Ye left the' Chinese gadgie in chairge of supplies, boot ah could nay find him either."

The foreman is really angry now and storms off toward the pile of sand to look for the Chinese guy.

Just then, the Chinese guy leaps out from behind the pile of sand and yells................

“SUPPLIES!!!”

If Men Really Ruled The World

  • Any fake phone number a girl gave you would automatically forward your call to her real number.

  • Nodding and looking at your watch would be deemed an acceptable response to "I love you."

  • Hallmark would make "Sorry, what was your name again?" cards.

  • When your girlfriend really needed to talk to you during the game, she'd appear in a little box in the corner of the screen during a time-out.

  • Breaking up would be a lot easier. A smack to the back and a "Nice hustle, you'll get 'em next time" would pretty much do it.

  • Birth control would come in ale or lager.

  • You'd be expected to fill your resume with gag names of people you'd worked for, like "Heywood J'Blowme."

  • Each year, your raise would be pegged to the fortunes of the NFL teamof your choice.

  • The funniest guy in the office would get to be CEO.

  • "Sorry I'm late, but I got really wasted last night" would be an acceptable excuse for tardiness.

  • At the end of the workday, a whistle would blow and you'd jump out your window and slide down the tail of a brontosaurus and right into your car like Fred Flintstone.

  • It'd be considered harmless fun to gather 30 friends, put on horned helmets, and go pillage a nearby town.

  • Lifeguards could remove citizens from beaches for violating the "public ugliness" ordinance.

  • Tanks would be far easier to rent.

  • Garbage would take itself out.Instead of beer belly, you'd get "beer biceps."

  • Instead of an expensive engagement ring, you could present your wife-to-be with a giant foam hand that said, "You're #1!"

  • Valentine's Day would be moved to February 29th so it would only occur in leap years.

  • On Groundhog Day, if you saw your shadow, you'd get the day off to go drinking. Mother's Day, too. St. Patrick's Day, however, would remain exactly the same. But it would be celebrated every month.

  • Cops would be broadcast live, and you could phone in advice to the pursuing cops. Or to the crooks.

  • Two words: Ally McNaked.

  • Kathie Lee would be chained to a cement mixer and pushed off the Golden Gate Bridge for the most lucrative pay-per-view event in world history.

  • The only show opposite Monday Night Football would be Monday Night Football from a Different Camera Angle.

  • It would be perfectly legal to steal a sports car, as long as you returned it the following day with a full tank of gas.

  • Every man would get four real Get Out of Jail Free cards per year.

  • When a cop gave you a ticket, every smart-aleck answer you responded with would actually reduce your fine. As in:

    Cop: "You know how fast you were going?"
    You: "All I know is, I was spilling my beer all over the place."
    Cop: "Nice one. That's $10 off."

  • Faucets would run "Hot," "Cold," and "100 proof."

  • Telephones would automatically cut off after 30 seconds of conversation

Bad Hair Day

Wanna hear a blonde joke?

A blind man makes his way to a bar stool and orders a drink.

After sitting there for awhile, he yells to the bartender, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?"

The bar immediately falls absolutely quiet. In a very deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says, before you tell that joke, sir, I think it is only fair... given that you are blind, that you should know five things:

1. The bartender is a blonde girl with a baseball bat.

2. The bouncer is a blonde girl.

3. I'm a 6 foot tall, 175 lb. blonde woman with a black belt in karate.

4. The woman sitting next to me is blonde and a professional weight-lifter.

5. The lady to your right is blonde and a professional wrestler.

"Now, think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?"

The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head, and mutters, "Nah...not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times."

Normal enough..?

During a recient visit to a mental asylum, I asked the Director what the criterion was which defined 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," I said "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 room with or without a view?"

A Dollar

A man goes into a bar and seats himself on a stool. The bartender looks at him and says, "What'll it be buddy?"

The man says, "Set me up with seven whiskey shots and make them doubles." The bartender does this and watches the man slug one down, then the next, then the next, and so on until all seven are gone almost as quickly as they were served. Staring in disbelief, the bartender asks why he's doing all this drinking.

"You'd drink them this fast too if you had what I have."

The bartender hastily asks, "What do you have pal?"

The man quickly replies, "I have a dollar."

Watch your step!

Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven: don't step on the ducks!"

So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place it is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on one. Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw. St. Peter chains them together and says, "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man!"

The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck and along comes St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing. With him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman.

The third woman has observed all this and - not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man - is very, VERY careful where she steps. She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on - - very tall, long eyelashes, muscular, thin, tanned, a great smile. St. Peter chains them together without saying a word then leaves the couple alone.

The happy woman exclaims, "I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to YOU for all eternity?"

The guy shakes his head and says, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck!"

Wedding Anniversary

A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary. Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. What a peaceful & loving couple. A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.

"Well, it dates back to our honeymoon," explained the man. "We visited the Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom on the canyon by horse. We hadn't gone too far when my wife's horse stumbled. My wife quietly said, 'That's once'."

"We proceeded a little further and the horse stumbled again. Once more my wife quietly said, 'That's twice.'

"We hadn't gone a half-mile when the horse stumbled the third time. My wife quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse dead.

"I started an angry protest over her treatment of the horse, while I was shouting. She looked at me, and quietly said, 'That's once'.

"And we have lived happily ever after."

Late Night Studies

Are you relaxing?

One day Sipho was enjoying the sun at the beach in South Africa. A lady came and asked him, "Are you relaxing?" Sipho answered, "No, I am Sipho."

Another guy came and asked him the same question. Sipho answered, "No! No! Me Sipho!"

A third one came and asked him the same question again. Sipho was totally annoyed and decided to shift his place.

While walking he saw a certain guy soaking in the sun. He went up to him and asked, "Are you Relaxing?" This guy was a lot more educated and answered, "Yes, I am relaxing."

Sipho slapped him in his face and said, "Stupid, idiot. Everyone is looking for you and you are sitting over here!"

Loggers

On a tour of Alaska, the Pope took a couple of days off to visit the mountains for some sight seeing. He was cruising along the campground in the Pope-mobile when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the woods. A helpless looking guy, wearing sandals, shorts, a "Save the Whales" T-shirt and a Tree Hugger Hat, was struggling frantically, thrashing around trying to free himself from the jaws of a 10 foot grizzly bear.  

As the Pope watched horrified, a group of loggers came racing up. One quickly fired a .44 magnum into the bear's chest. The other two reached up and pulled the bleeding, semiconscious Democrat from the bear. Then using long clubs, the three loggers beat the bear to death and two of them threw it onto the bed of their truck while the other tenderly placed the injured guy in the back seat.  

As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions!" he told them. "I heard there was a bitter hatred between loggers and environmental activists, but now I've seen with my own eyes it is not true."  

As the Pope drove off, one of the loggers asked his buddies "Who was that guy?" "It was the Pope," another replied, "he's in direct contact with God and has access to all God's wisdom."  

"Well," the logger said, "he may have access to all God's wisdom, but he sure doesn't know anything about bear hunting. By the way, is the bait holding up okay or do we need to go back to town and grab another one?

Are We There Yet?

But first... (Part II)

Confession

About a month ago, a man in Amsterdam felt that he needed to confess, so he went to his priest.

"Forgive me Father, for I have sinned. During World War II I hid a refugee in my attic."

"Well," answered the priest, "that's not a sin."'

"But I made him agree to pay me 20 Pounds for every week he stayed."

"I admit that wasn't good, but you did it for a good cause."

"Oh, thank you, Father; that eases my mind. I have one more question..."

"What is that, my son?"

"Do I have to tell him the war is over?"

Teamwork

Do You Know Frank?

A man walks into the street and manages to get a taxi just going by. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, "Perfect timing. You're just like Frank.”

Passenger: Who?

Cabbie: Frank Feldman. There's a guy who did everything right.  Like my coming along when you needed a cab.  It would have happened like that to Frank every single time.

Passenger: There are always a few clouds over everybody.

Cabbie: Not Frank. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano.

Passenger: Sounds like he was something really special.

Cabbie: There's more. He had a memory like a computer, could remember everybody's birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out.
Passenger: Wow, some bloke then.

Cabbie: He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams, not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them.

Passenger: Mmmm, there's not many like him around.

Cabbie: And he knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good and never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too."

Passenger: An amazing fellow.  How did you meet him?

Cabbie: Well, I never actually met Frank.

Passenger: Then how do you know so much about him?

Cabbie: I married his widow.

Patron: Waiter!

Waiter: Hi, my name is Bill, and I'll be your Support Waiter. What seems to be the problem?

Patron: There's a fly in my soup!

Waiter: Try again; maybe the fly won't be there this time.

Patron: No, it's still there.

Waiter: Maybe it's the way you're using the soup; try eating it with a fork instead.

Patron: Even when I use the fork, the fly is still there.

Waiter: Maybe the soup is incompatible with the bowl; what kind of bowl are you using?

Patron: A SOUP bowl!

Waiter: Hmmm, that should work. Maybe it's a configuration problem; how was the bowl set up?

Patron: You brought it to me on a saucer; what has that to do with the fly in my soup?!

Waiter: Can you remember everything you did before you noticed the fly in your soup?

Patron: I sat down and ordered the Soup of the Day!

Stupidity

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. -- Albert Einstein

The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits. -- Albert Einstein

The two most common elements in the universe are hydrogen...and stupidity.. -- Harlan Ellison

There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life. -- Frank Zappa

The only way to comprehend what mathematicians mean by Infinity is to contemplate the extent of human stupidity. -- Voltaire

It is even harder for the average ape to believe that he has descended from man. -- H. L. Mencken

No one in this world, so far as I know, has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. -- More from Mencken

Strange as it seems, no amount of learning can cure stupidity, and formal education positively fortifies it. -- Stephen Vizinczey

Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped. -- Elbert Hubbard

Anyway, no drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power. -- P. J. O'Rourke

Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity. - Unknown

The Betting Blonde

A fellow stopped into his local bar for a beer on the way home after work. Soon a blonde came in and sat down next to him and they struck up a conversation.

The evening news was on TV, and they were showing a fellow standing on a ledge on a 5-story building and threatening to jump. The guy at the bar says to the blonde "I'll bet you $5 he jumps". The blonde pulls out a five and says, "I'll take that bet".

Soon the guy jumps and splatters all over the pavement. The blonde pushes the $10 toward the guy and says, "Well, you won that one".

The guy pushes $5 back to her and says "I was just having a little fun, I saw this story earlier and knew he jumped".

The blonde says "That's ok, take the $5, I saw it earlier too, but I didn't think he would jump again".

Are you sane enough?

Bob and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Bob suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.

Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Bob out.
When the Director of Nursing became aware of Edna's heroic act, she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.

When she went to tell Edna the news she said, "Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays soundness of mind. The bad news is that Bob, the patient you saved, hanged himself in his bathroom with the belt to his robe right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead."

Edna replied, "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?"

Fight Like a Man!

There were three guys talking in the pub. Two of them are talking about the amount of control they have over their wives, while the third remains quiet.

After a while, one of the first two turns to the third and says, "Well, what about you? What sort of control do you have over your wife?" The third fellow says, "I'll tell you. Just the other night, my wife came to me on her hands and knees."

The first two guys were amazed.

"What happened then?" they asked.

"She said, 'Get out from under the bed and fight like a man!'"

Put On Your Shoes

One Saturday afternoon the grasshopper, the snail, and the centipede were sitting around the grasshopper's house drinking beer.

They ran out of beer before they were ready to quit drinking, so they decided one of them should go out for more beer.

The snail said, "I'd go, but I'm kind of slow. Besides, Grasshopper, this is your neighborhood so you know where to go."

The grasshopper said, "I don't mind going, but my hopping will shake up the beer and we'll get sprayed every time we open one."

So they decided to send the centipede; and the grasshopper explained how to get to the nearest liquor store.

An hour or so passed and still the centipede hadn't returned, so the snail and the grasshopper decided to go look for him.

They got as far as the the front door and found the centipede sitting there putting on his shoes.

Panda

A panda bear walks into a restaurant. He orders the special and eats it. After eating, he pulls out a pistol, kills the waiter and starts to walk out the door.
The owner of the restaurant says, "Hey, what are you doing? You come in here, you kill my waiter and walk away without saying a word. I don't understand."

The panda says, "Look it up in the dictionary," and walks out the door.

So the owner gets out a dictionary and looks under the heading "Panda". It reads:

panda: black and white animal; lives in central China; eats shoots and leaves.

Fishing Spot

Two blondes rented a boat and fished in a lake every day. On this particular day they caught over 50 fish. The first blonde turned to her friend and said, "Mark this spot so that we can come back here tomorrow."

Her friend replied, "Yeah, I painted a big X on the bottom of the boat."

The first one said, "You fool! What if we don't get that same boat today?"

Mom: “Why would she give you a present?”
Little Johnny: “Because she said, ‘Johnny, sit there for the present.’”

Tonsillectomy

She had never been in a hospital before, and was pretty nervous.

During the ride, the teenager and her parents talked about how the procedure would be performed.

"Dad," the girl asked, "how are they going to keep my mouth open during the surgery?"

Without hesitation, he said, "They're going to give you a phone."

The Blonde and the Monkeys

A blonde lady motorist was about two hours from San Diego when she was flagged down by a man whose truck had broken down.

The man walked up to the car and asked, "Are you going to San Diego?"

"Sure," answered the blonde, "do you need a lift?"

"Not for me. I'll be spending the next three hours fixing my truck.  My problem is I've got two chimpanzees in the back that has to be taken to the San Diego Zoo. They're a bit stressed already so I don't want keep them on the road all day. Could you possibly take them to the zoo for me? I'll give you $100 for your trouble."

"I'd be happy to," said the blonde.

So the two chimpanzees were ushered into the back seat of the blonde's car and carefully strapped into their seat belts. Off they went.

Five hours later, the truck driver was driving through the heart of San Diego when suddenly he was horrified!! There was the blonde walking down the street and holding hands with the two chimps, much to the amusement of a big crowd.

With a screech of brakes he pulled off the  road and ran over to the blonde.

"What the heck are you doing here?" he demanded, "I gave you $100 to take these chimpanzees to the zoo."

"Yes, I know you did," said the blonde, "but we had money left over---so now we're going to Sea World."

A Reasonable Request

A bar owner locked up his place at 2 AM and went home to sleep. He had been in bed only a few minutes when the phone rang. "What time do you open up in the morning?" he heard an obviously inebriated man inquire.

The owner was so furious; he slammed down the receiver and went back to bed. A few minutes later there was another call and he heard the same voice ask the same question.

"Listen" the owner shouted, "there's no sense in asking me what time I open because I wouldn't let a person in your condition in."

"I don't want to get in," the caller interjected. "I just want to get out!

Microsoft Acquires Christmas

NORTH POLE (API) - MICROSOFT announced an agreement with Santa Claus Industries to acquire Christmas at a press conference held via satellite from Santa's summer estate somewhere in the southern hemisphere. In the deal, Microsoft would gain exclusive rights to Christmas, Reindeer, and other unspecified inventions. In addition, Microsoft will gain access to millions of households through the Santa Sleigh.

The announcement also included a notice that beginning Jan 1, 2006, Christmas and the Reindeer names would be copyrighted by Microsoft. This unprecedented move was facilitated by the recently acquired MS Court. Microsoft stated its commitment to "all who have made Christmas great," and vowed to "make licensing of the Christmas and Reindeer names available to all." It is believed that the guidelines for licensing these names, due before Halloween, will be very strict.

When asked "Why buy Christmas?" Bill Gates replied "Microsoft has been working on a more efficient delivery mechanism for all of our products for some time, but recognized that the Santa Sleigh has some immediate benefits."

In a multimedia extravaganza, the attendees were shown a seemingly endless video stream of products that make up the deal. It ended with a green and red version of the Microsoft logo, and a new Christmas '06 trademark, leading into the announcement of the first product from the deal.

Vixen, the new Director of Holidays and Celebrations said, "The first step is to assimilate Christmas within the Microsoft organization. This will take some time, so don't expect any changes this year." She continued, "our big plans are for next year, when we release Christmas '06. It will be bigger and better than last year." She further elaborated that "Windows 2k3 users who sign up with MS Network will get sneak previews of Christmas['06] as early as November first."

Christmas '06 is scheduled for release in December of 2006, though one unnamed source said that it is dangerously close to the end of the year and may slip into the first half of 2007. An economist at Goldman Sachs explained that a slip would be catastrophic to next year's economy and the nation's tax revenue, possibly requiring the IRS to move the deadline for filing income tax returns to three months after Christmas, whenever that was. "But it could be good in the long term," he explained. "With Microsoft controlling Christmas, we may see it move to May or June, which are much slower months for retailers. This may serve to even out the economy over the year."

When asked if other holidays are being considered, Mr. Gates explained that "Christmas is the flagship of holidays, so we wanted to start there. Not all holidays are available for sale, and the remaining will have to show a good long term business," suggesting that holidays with a short history may not be in the plans.

Though specific terms of the agreement were withheld pending final FTC approval, a Santa official confirmed that the deal was "sizeable, even for a man of Santa's stature." Some analysts think that Santa has saturated the Holiday market, and is looking for a means to expand his business to year 'round products and services. Others contend that the Jolly Red Man is looking to retire in Redmond.

A spokesperson for the most famous Reindeer could not be reached for comment.

Misspelt Name

Two men were walking home after a Halloween party and decided to take a shortcut through the cemetery just for laughs. Right in the middle of the cemetery they were startled by a tap-tap-tapping noise coming from the misty shadows.

Trembling with fear, they found an old man with a hammer and chisel, chipping away at one of the headstones.

"Holy cow, Mister," one of them said after catching his breath, "You scared us half to death – we thought you were a ghost! What are you doing working here so late at night?"

"Those fools!" the old man grumbled. "They misspelled my name!"
