Not so serious:
More Kids!
A boy was assigned a
paper on childbirth and asked his parents,
"How was I born?"
"Well honey..." said the slightly
prudish parent, "the stork brought you to us."
"Oh," said the boy. "Well, how did
you and daddy get born?" he asked.
"Oh, the stork brought us
too." "Well how were grandpa and grandma born?" he
persisted.
"Well darling, the stork brought
them too!" said the parent, by now starting to squirm a little in
the Lazy Boy recliner.
Several days later, the boy handed
in his paper to the teacher who read with confusion the opening
sentence:
"This report has been very
difficult to write because there hasn't been a natural childbirth
in my family for three generations."

WHY GOD CREATED CHILDREN
-- (AND IN THE PROCESS GRANDCHILDREN)
To those of us who have children in our
lives, whether they are our own, grandchildren, nieces, nephews,or
students... here is something to make you chuckle.
Whenever your children are out of control,
you can take comfort from the thought that even God's omnipotence did
not extend to His own children.
After creating heaven and earth, God
created Adam and Eve.
And the first thing he said was "DON'T !"
"Don't what? " Adam replied.
"Don't eat the forbidden fruit."
God said.
"Forbidden fruit ? We have
forbidden fruit ? Hey Eve..we have forbidden fruit ! "
"No Way! "
"Yes way! "
"Do NOT eat the fruit! " said God.
"Why? "
"Because I am your Father and I
said so! " God replied, wondering why He hadn't stopped creation after
making the elephants. A few minutes later, God saw His children having
an apple break and He was ticked ! "Didn't I tell you not to eat the
fruit ? " God asked.
"Uh huh," Adam replied.
"Then why did you? " said the
Father.
"I don't know," said Eve.
"She started it! " Adam said.
"Did not! "
"Did too! "
"DID NOT! "
Having had it with the two of them, God's
punishment was that Adam and Eve should have children of their own.
Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed.
BUT THERE IS REASSURANCE IN THE STORY !
If you have persistently and
lovingly tried to give children wisdom and they haven't taken it, don't
be hard on yourself.
If God had trouble raising children,
what make s you think it would be a piece of cake for you?
THINGS TO THINK ABOUT !
1. You spend the first two years of
their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next
sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up.
2. Grandchildren are God's reward for not
killing your own children.
3. Mothers of teens now know why some
animals eat their young.
4. Children seldom misquote you. In fact,
they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said.
5. The main purpose of holding children's
parties is to remind yourself that there are children more awful than
your own.
6 We childproofed our homes, but they are
still getting in.
ADVICE FOR THE DAY:
Be nice to your kids. They will choose your nursing home one day.
AND FINALLY:
IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF TENSION AND YOU GET A HEADACHE, DO
WHAT IT SAYS ON THE ASPIRIN BOTTLE:
"TAKE TWO ASPIRIN" AND "KEEP AWAY FROM
CHILDREN"!!!!!

These British 16 years olds have terrific
senses of humour!
These are real, unadulterated
answers from British 16 year-olds, in their GCSE's (end of year
exams...) GEOGRAPHY
Q: Name the four seasons.
A: Salt, pepper, mustard and vinegar.
Q: Explain one of the processes by
which water can be made safe to drink.
A: Flirtation makes water safe to drink because it removes large
pollutants like grit, sand, dead sheep and canoeists.
Q: How is dew formed?
A: The sun shines down on the leaves and makes them perspire.
Q: What is a planet?
A: A body of earth surrounded by sky.
Q: What causes the tides in the
oceans?
A: The tides are a fight between the Earth and the Moon. All water
tends to flow towards the moon, because there is no water on the moon,
and nature abhors a vacuum. I forget where the sun joins in the
fight.

Aa-Ttissue
A man and a woman were
sitting beside each other in the first class section of the plane. The
woman sneezed, took a tissue, gently wiped her nose and then shuddered
quite violently in her seat. The man went back to his reading. A few
minutes passed. The woman sneezed again, took a tissue, gently wiped
her nose and shuddered quite violently in her seat. The man was
becoming more and more curious about the shuddering. A few more minutes
passed and the woman sneezed one more time. Again she took a tissue,
gently wiped her nose and shuddered violently.
The man had finally
had all he could handle. He turned to the woman and said, "You've
sneezed three times you've taken a tissue and wiped your nose then
shuddered violently! Are you all right?"
The woman replied, "I'm sorry
if I disturbed you. I have a rare condition and when I sneeze, I have
an orgasm."
The man, was feeling a little
embarrassed but even more curious and said, "I've never heard of that
before. What are you taking for it?"
The woman looked at him and
said, "Pepper."

Some Darwin
Awards!
They
are finally out again. Last year's winner was the fellow who was killed
by a Coke machine which toppled over on top of him as he was attempting
to tip a free soda out of it.
And the
2002 nominees are:
9. A young
Canadian man, searching for a way of getting drunk cheaply, because he
had no money with which to buy alcohol, mixed gasoline with milk. Not
surprisingly, this concoction made him ill, and he vomited into the
fireplace in his house. The resulting explosion and fire burned his
house down, killing both him and his sister.
8. A
34-year-old white male found dead in the basement of his home died of
suffocation, according to police. He was approximately 6'2" tall and
weighed 225 pounds. He was wearing a pleated skirt, white bra, black
and white saddle shoes, and a woman's wig. It appeared that he was
trying to create a schoolgirl's uniform look. He was also wearing a
military gas mask that had the filter canister removed and a rubber
hose attached in its place. The other end of the hose was connected to
one end of a hollow wooden tube approx. 12" long and 3" in diameter.
The tube's other end was inserted into his rectum for reasons unknown,
and was the cause of his suffocation. Police found the task of
explaining the circumstances of his death to his family very awkward.
7. Three Brazilian
men were flying in a light aircraft at low altitude when another plane
approached. It appears that they decided to moon the occupants of the
other plane, but lost control of their own aircraft and crashed. They
were all found dead in the wreckage with their pants around their
ankles.
6. A
police officer in Ohio responded to a 911 call. She had no details
before arriving, except that someone had reported that his father was
not breathing. Upon arrival, the officer found the man face down on the
couch naked. When she rolled him over to check for a pulse and to start
CPR, she noticed burn marks around his genitals. After the ambulance
arrived and removed the man-who was declared dead on arrival at the
hospital the police made a closer inspection of the couch, and noticed
that the man had made a hole between the cushions. Upon flipping the
couch over, they discovered what had caused his death. Apparently, the
man had a habit of putting his penis between the cushions, down into
the hole and between two electrical sanders (with the sandpaper
removed, for obvious reasons). According to the story, after his orgasm
the discharge shorted out one of the sanders, electrocuting him.
5. A
27-year-old French woman lost control of her car on a highway near
Marseilles and crashed into a tree, seriously injuring her passenger
and killing herself. As a commonplace road accident, this would not
have qualified for a Darwin nomination, were it not for the fact that
the driver's attention had been distracted by her Tamagotchi key ring,
which had started urgently beeping for food as she drove along. In an
attempt to press the correct buttons to save the Tamagotchi's life, the
woman lost her own.
4. A
22-year-old, Glade Drive, Reston, VA, man was found dead after he tried
to use octopus straps to bungee jump off a 70-foot railroad trestle.
Fairfax County police said Eric Barcia, a fast-food worker, taped a
bunch of these straps together, wrapped one end around one foot,
anchored the other end to the trestle at Lake Accotink Park, jumped and
hit the pavement. Warren Carmichael, a police spokesman, said
investigators think Barcia was alone because his car was found nearby.
"The length of the cord that he had assembled was greater than the
distance between the trestle and the ground" Carmichael said. Police
say the apparent cause of death was "Major trauma".
3. A man in
Alabama died from rattlesnake bites. It seems that he and a friend were
playing a game of catch, using the rattlesnake as a ball. The friend-no
doubt a future Darwin Awards candidate - was hospitalised.
2.
Employees in a medium-sized warehouse in west Texas noticed the smell
of a gas leak. Sensibly, management evacuated the building
extinguishing all potential sources of ignition; lights, power, etc.
After the building had been evacuated, two technicians from the gas
company were dispatched. Upon entering the building, they found they
had difficulty navigating in the dark. To their frustration, none of
the lights worked. Witnesses later described the sight of one of the
technicians reaching into his pocket and retrieving an object that
resembled a cigarette lighter. Upon operation of the lighter like
object, the gas in the warehouse exploded, sending pieces of it up to
three miles away. Nothing was found of the technicians, but the lighter
was virtually untouched by the explosion. The technician suspected of
causing the blast had never been thought of as 'bright' by his peers.
1.Based on
a bet by the other members of his foursome, the last nominee for this
year's Darwin Award (awarded to people for incredible feats of mental
lapses whose demise aids in improving the gene pool) goes to ....
Everitt Sanchez who tried to wash his own "balls" in a ball washer at
the local golf course. Proving once again that beer and testosterone
are a bad mix, Sanchez managed to straddle the ball washer and dangle
his scrotum in the machine Much to his dismay, one of his buddies upped
the ante by spinning the crank on the machine with Sanchez's scrotum in
place, thus wedging them solidly in the mechanism. Sanchez, who
immediately passed his threshold of pain, collapsed and tumbled from
his perch. Unfortunately for Sanchez, the height of the ball washer was
more than a foot higher off the ground than his testicles are in a
normal stance, and the scrotum was the weakest link. Sanchez's scrotum
was ripped open during the fall, and one testicle was plucked from him
forever and remained in the ball washer, while the other testicle was
compressed and flattened as it was pulled between the housing of the
washer, and the rotating machinery inside. To add insult injury,
Sanchez broke a new $300.00 driver that he had just purchased from the
pro shop, and was using to balance himself. Sanchez was rushed to the
hospital for surgery, and the remaining threesome was asked to leave
the course. Now, obviously, this last nominee did not expire; however,
since he is forever sterilized, the nominating committee believed he
warranted an opportunity in this year's competition.

Two Little Trouble
Makers
A couple had two little mischievous boys, ages 8 and 10.
They were always getting into trouble, and their parents knew that if
any mischief occurred in their town, their sons would get the blame.
The boys' mother heard that a clergyman in town had been successful in
disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys.
The clergyman agreed and asked to see them individually. So, the mother
sent her 8-year-old first, in the morning, with the older boy to see
the clergyman in the afternoon. The clergyman, a huge man with a
booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, "Where
is God?" They boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response,
sitting there with his mouth hanging open. The clergyman repeated the
question. "Where is God?" Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. So,
the clergyman raised his voice some more and shook his finger in the
boy's face and bellowed, "Where is God!?" The boy screamed and bolted
from the room. He ran directly home and dove into his closet, slamming
the door behind him. When his older brother found him in the closet, he
asked, "What happened?" The younger brother, gasping for breath,
replied: "We are in real BIG trouble this time! God is missing, and
they think we did it!"

services for an animal in the church. But there are some Baptists down
the lane, and there's no tellin' what they believe. Maybe they'll do
something for the creature."
Muldoon
said, "I'll go right away Father. Do ya' think $5,000 is enough
to donate to them for the service?" Father Patrick exclaimed, "Sweet

Retribution
Obnoxious
arrogant schoolmates; how to show them their
place:
If you're sure the offender is the next person to use the shower
you're in luck and that person will be blue. Here's how: Go to
the VET and purchase some fairly large empty gelatine capsules,
fill them with something like RIT, a dye used to dye clothes in
the washing machine. Personally I prefer Woad Blue, but then I'm
a Scot. Purchase some plain gelatine at the grocery. Mix it up in
hot water and after the surface becomes the least bit sticky dip
the capsule in and dry it with an hair dryer, repeat this several
times. Admittedly this part is a bit tricky. Zip into the WC, carefully
remove the shower head, pop a few capsules in the pipe and
replace the shower head. Then when the water flows at first no
color will flow, about the time your schoolmate gets soapy and
closes the eyes -- well then the color will flow. OBTW There is
no cure, it has to wear off. Usually humility wears on at the
same time.
---<<>>---
Another
outstanding trick is to sneak into the WC and stretch
Saran Wrap over the toilet bowl. Make a really neat job of it.
This is best done late Friday or Saturday night. When the
offender returns from a night of revelry that person will
approach the white throne depending on their specific degree of
devotion, they may reverently kneel, respectfully stand or sit in quiet
spiritual contemplation. In any case they will be dazed and
amazed.
---<<>>---
In
rather cold damp climates I've found the early morning
application of Super Glue to the appropriate door knob a few
minutes before it will be grasped is quite a bonding experience. As a
person so joined as it might be said, is usually in a state of undress
the opportunities for contumely and opprobrium are virtually
infinite.
---<<<>>>---
If the
offending person has been out drinking and is now abed and if perchance
a hand of the offender dangles from the bed, well, hummm. Fill a
small bowl with slightly cooled water, stack some stuff so you can
sit the bowl on it and carefully immerse the offender's hand in
the slightly cooled water... Beat a silent but hasty retreat.
Shortly the offender will awaken realizing he had a liquid
problem and now has to lay in it.

Dimocracy -- Government by the intellectually
challenged
~~~|ALKALYN|~~~
Be
aware that the French government announced yesterday that it has
raised its terror alert level from RUN to HIDE. The only two higher
levels in France are Surrender and Collaborate. The rise was
precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France's white flag
factory, effectively paralysing their military capability.
It's
not only the French that are on a heightened level of alert, The
Italians have increased their alert level from "shout loudly and
excitedly" to "elaborate military posturing". Two more levels remain,
"ineffective combat operations" and "change sides".
The
Germans also increased their alert state from "disdainful
arrogance" to "dress in uniform and sing marching songs". They have two
higher levels, "invade a neighbour" and "lose".
Seeing
this reaction in continental Europe the Americans have gone from
"isolationism" to "find somewhere else in the Middle East ripe for
regime change". Their remaining higher alert states are "take on the
world" and "ask the British for help".
Finally
here in the UK we've gone from "pretend nothing's happening" to
"make another cup of tea".

An
elderly man in Florida had owned a large farm for several years. He
had a large pond in the back, fixed up nice; picnic tables, horseshoe
courts, and some apple and peach trees. The pond was properly shaped
and fixed up for swimming when it was built. One evening, the old
farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn't been there for a
while, and look it over. He grabbed a five gallon bucket to bring back
some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and
laughing with glee. As he came closer he saw it was a bunch of young
women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his
presence and they all went to the deep end. One of the women shouted to
him, "We're not coming out until you leave!" The old man frowned, "I
didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get
out of the pond naked." Holding the bucket up he said, "I'm here to
feed the alligator."

The Son's Note
A
father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished to see the bed
was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then he saw an envelope
propped up prominently on the center of the bed. It was addressed,
"Dad"
With the worst premonition, he opened the envelope and read the letter
with trembling hands:
Dear
Dad,
It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you.
I had to elope with my new girlfriend because I wanted to avoid a
scene with Mom and you.
I've been finding real passion with Joan and she is so nice-even with
all her piercing, tattoos, and her tight Motorcycle clothes. But it's
not only the passion dad, she's pregnant and Joan said that we will be
very happy.
Even though you won't care for her as she is so much older than I, she
already owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of firewood for
the whole winter. She wants to have many more children with me and
that's now one of my dreams too.
Joan taught me that marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone and we'll be
growing it for us and trading it with her friends for all the cocaine
and ecstasy we want. In the meantime, we'll pray that science will
find a cure for AIDS so Joan can get better; she sure deserves it!
Don't worry Dad, I'm 15 years old now and I know how to take care of
myself. Someday I'm sure we'll be back to visit, so you can get to
know your grandchildren.
Your loving son,
John
PS: Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at the neighbor's house.
I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than
my report card that's in the center drawer of my desk. I love you!
Call when it is safe for me to come home.

PLANE RIDE JOKE
A photographer for a national magazine was assigned to take pictures of
a great forest fire. He was advised that a small plane would be waiting
to fly him over the fire.
The photographer arrived at the airstrip an hour before sundown. Sure
enough, a small Cessna airplane was waiting.
He jumped in with his equipment and shouted, "Let's go!" The tense man
sitting in the pilot's seat swung the plane into the wind and soon they
were in the air, though flying erratically.
"Fly over the north side of the fire," said the photographer, and make
several low-level passes."
"Why?" asked the nervous pilot.
"Because I'm going to take pictures!" yelled the photographer. "I'm a
photographer, and photographers take pictures."
After a long pause the "pilot" replied, "You mean, you're not my
instructor?"
