e-fun: February 2010

Friday, February 26, 2010

A couple is in bed sleeping when there's a rat-a-tat-tat on the door.

The husband rolls over and looks at the clock, and it's half past 3 in the morning.” I’m not getting out of bed at this time," he thinks, and rolls over. Then, a louder knock follows. So he drags himself out of bed, goes downstairs, opens the door, and there's a man standing there. It didn't take the homeowner long to realize the man was drunk.

"Hi there," slurs the stranger, "Can you give me a push?"

"No, get lost. It's half past three and I was in bed," says the man as he slams the door.

He goes back up to bed and tell his wife what happened and she says, "That wasn't very nice of you. Remember that night we broke down in the pouring rain on the way to pick the kids up from the baby-sitter and you had to knock on that man's house to get us started again? What would have happened if he'd told us to get lost?"

"But the guy was drunk," says the husband.

"It doesn't matter," says the wife.” He needs our help and it would be the Christian thing to help him." So the husband gets out of bed again, gets dressed, and goes downstairs.

He opens the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere, he shouts, "Hey, do you still want a push?"

And he hears a voice cry out, "Yeah, please."

So, still being unable to see the stranger he shouts, "Where are you?" The drunk replies, "Over here, on the swing."

Construction Workers

An Italian, a Scotsman, and a Chinese fellow were hired at a
construction site. The foreman pointed out a huge pile of sand and told
the Italian guy, "You're in charge of sweeping." To the Scotsman he
said, "You're in charge of shoveling." And to the Chinese guy, "You're
in charge of supplies."

He then said, "Now, I have to leave for a little while. I expect you
guys to make a dent in that there pile."
The foreman went away for a of couple hours, and, when he returned, the
pile of sand was untouched. He asked the Italian, "Why didn't you sweep
any of it?" The Italian replied, "I no hava no broom. You said to the
Chinese fella that he a wasa in a charge of supplies, but he hasa
disappeared and I no coulda finda him nowhere." Then the foreman turned
to the Scotsman and said, "And you, I thought I told you to shovel this
pile."

The Scotsman replied, "Aye, ye did lad, boot ah couldnay get meself a
shoovel! Ye left th' Chinese gadgie in chairge of supplies, boot ah
couldnay fin' him either." The foreman was really angry by now and
stormed off toward the pile of sand to look for the Chinese guy.

Just then, the Chinese guy jumped out from behind the pile of sand and
yelled...
"SUPPLIES!!"
