Marriage Joke
A man asked his wife what she'd like for her birthday. "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. Right to a McDonald's they went, where her husband ordered
her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a refreshing chocolate shake. Then it was
off to a movie, the latest Star Wars epic, a hot dog, popcorn, soda, and M&Ms.
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 idiot, I meant my dress size."
The moral of this story: Even when the man is listening, he's still gonna get it wrong.
The Older View
Reporters interviewing a 104
year-old woman:" And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?" the
reporter asked. She simply replied, "No peer pressure"
The nice thing about being senile is you can hide your own Easter eggs.
Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly
widow and asked, "How old was your husband?" "98," she replied. "Two years
older than me." "So you're 96," the undertaker commented. She responded,
"Hardly worth going home is it?"
I've sure gotten old. I've had 2 By-pass surgeries. A hip replacement, new
knees. Fought prostate cancer, and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything
quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy,
winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia. Have poor
circulation, hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or
92. Have lost all my friends. But.... Thank God, I still have my Florida
driver's license!
A 97 year old man goes into his doctor's office and says, "Doc, I want my sex
drive lowered." "Sir", replied the doctor, "You're 97. Don't you think your sex
drive is all in your head?" "You're ang right it is!" replied the old man.
"That's why I want it lowered!"
God, grant me the senility To forget the people I never liked anyway, The good
fortune To run into the ones I do, And the eyesight to tell the difference.
An elderly woman from Brooklyn decided to prepare her will and make her final
requests. She told her rabbi she had two final requests. First, she wanted to
be cremated, and second, she wanted her ashes scattered over Bloomingdale's.
"Bloomingdale's!" the rabbi exclaimed. "Why Bloomingdale's?" "Then I'll be sure my
daughters visit me twice a week."
G. W. Bush
A different twist of the sales guy version
While walking down the street
one day, George "Dubya" Bush is shot by a disgruntled NRA member. His soul
arrives in heaven and he is met by St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.
"Welcome to Heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a
problem: We seldom see a Republican around these parts, so we're not sure what
to do with you."
"No problem, just let me in; I'm a believer." says Dubya.
"I'd like to just let you in, but I have orders from the Man Himself: He says
you have to spend one day in Hell and one day in Heaven. Then you must choose
where you'll live for eternity."
"But, I've already made up my mind; I want to be in Heaven."
I'm sorry, but we have our rules." And with that, St. Peter escorts him to an
elevator and he goes down, down, down, all the way to Hell.
The doors open and he finds
himself in the middle of a lush golf course; the sun is shining in a cloudless
sky, the temperature - a perfect 72 degrees. In the distance
is a beautiful clubhouse. Standing in front of it his dad, and thousands of
other Republicans who had helped him out over the years: Karl Rove, Dick Cheney,
Jerry Falwell...The whole of the "Right" was there... Everyone - laughing,
happy.... casually but expensively dressed. They run to greet him, hug him, and
reminisce about the good times they had getting rich at the expense of the
"suckers and peasants". They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on
lobster and caviar.
The Devil himself comes up to Bush with a frosty drink: "Have a Margarita and
relax, Dubya!"
"Uh, I can't drink no more, I took a pledge," says Junior, dejectedly.
"This is Hell, son: you can dri! nk and eat all you want and not worry, and it
just gets better from there!" Dubya takes the drink and finds himself liking the
Devil, who he thinks is a really very friendly guy who tells funny jokes and
pulls hilarious nasty pranks, kind of like a Yale Skull and Bones brother with
real horns.
They are having such a great time that, before he realizes it, it's time to go.
Everyone gives him a big hug and waves as Bush steps on the elevator and heads
upward.
When the elevator door reopens, he is in Heaven again and St. Peter is waiting
for him. "Now it's time to visit Heaven," the old man says, opening the gate. So
for 24 hours Bush is made to hang out with a bunch of honest, good-natured
people who enjoy each other's company, talk about things other than money, and
treat each other decently. Not a nasty prank or frat boy joke among them; no
fancy country clubs and, while the food tastes great, it's not caviar or
lobster. And these people are a! ll poor, he doesn't see anybody he knows, and
he isn't even treated like someone special! Worst of all, to Dubya, Jesus turns
out to be some kind of Jewish hippie with his endless 'peace' and 'do unto
others' jive. "Whoa," he says uncomfortably to himself, "Pat Robertson never
prepared me for this!"
The day done, St. Peter returns and says: "Well, then, you've spent a day in
Hell and a day in Heaven. Now choose where you want to live for eternity."
With the 'Jeopardy' theme playing softly in the background, Dubya reflects for a
minute, then answers: "Well, I would never have thought I'd say this -- I mean,
Heaven has been delightful and all -- but I really think I belong in Hell with
my friends." So Saint Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down,
down, all the way to Hell.
The doors of the elevator open and he is in the middle of a barren scorched
earth covered with garbage and toxic industrial waste.. kind of like Houston.
He is horrified to see all of his friends, dressed in rags and chained together,
picking up the trash and putting it in black bags. They are groaning and moaning
in pain, faces and hands black with grime. The Devil comes over to Dubya and
puts an arm around his shoulder.
I don't understand," stammers a shocked Dubya, "Yesterday I was here and there
was a golf course and a clubhouse and we ate lobster and caviar... drank booze.
We screwed around and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of
garbage and everybody looks miserable!"
The Devil looks at him, smiles slyly and purrs: "Yesterday we were campaigning;
today you voted for us."
Nice Watch
Jake is
struggling through a bus station with two huge and obviously heavy suitcases
when a stranger walks up to him and asks, "Have you got the time?"
Jake sighs, puts down the suitcases and glances at his wrist. "It's a
quarter to six," he says.
"Hey, that's a pretty fancy watch!" exclaims the stranger.
Jake brightens a little. "Yeah, it's not bad. Check this out" - and he
shows him a time zone display not just for every time zone in the world,
but for the 86 largest metropolis.
He hits a few buttons and from somewhere on the watch a voice says, "The time is
eleven 'til six" in a very West Texas accent. A few more buttons and the same
voice says something in Japanese. Jake continues "I've put in regional accents
for each city." The display is unbelievably high quality and the voice is
astounding real.
The stranger is struck dumb with admiration.
"That's not all," says Jake. He pushes a few more buttons and a tiny but very
high-resolution map of New York City appears on the display. "The flashing dot
shows our location by satellite positioning," explains Jake. "View recede ten,"
Jake says, and the display changes to show eastern New York state.
"I want to buy this watch!" says the stranger.
"Oh, no, it's not ready for sale yet; I'm still working out the bugs," says the
inventor. "But look at this." He proceeds to demonstrate that the watch is also
a very creditable little FM radio receiver with a digital tuner, a sonar device
that can measure distances up to 125 meters, a pager with thermal paper printout
and, most impressive of all, the capacity for voice recordings of up to 300
standard-size books, "though I only have 32 of my favorites in there so
far," says Jake.
"I've got to have this watch!" says the stranger.
"No, you don't understand; it's not ready."
"I'll give you $1000 for it!"
"Oh, no, I've already spent more than -"
"I'll give you $5000 for it!"
"But it's just not -"
"I'll give you $15,000 for it!" And the stranger pulls out a checkbook.
Jake stops to think. He's only put about $8500 into materials and development,
and with $15,000 he can make another one and have it ready for merchandising
in only six months.
The stranger frantically finishes writing the check and waves it in front of
him. "Here it is, ready to hand to you right here and now. $15,000. Take
it or leave it."
Jake abruptly makes his decision. "OK," he says, and peels off the watch.
They make the exchange and the stranger starts happily away.
"Hey, wait a minute," calls Jake after the stranger, who turns around warily.
Jake points to the two suitcases he'd been trying to wrestle through the bus
station. "Don't forget your batteries."

Bob," she said. With his last breath John said, "I do!" >
A man picks up a young woman in a bar and convinces her to come back to
his hotel. When they are relaxing afterwards, he asks, "Am I the first
man you ever made love to?" She looks at him thoughtfully for a second
before replying. "You might be," she says. "Your face looks
familiar."
A man goes to see the Rabbi. "Rabbi, something terrible is happening and I have
to talk to you about it." The Rabbi asked, "What's wrong?" The man
replied, "My wife is poisoning me." The Rabbi, very surprised by this,
asks, "How can that be?" The man then pleads, "I'm telling you, I'm
certain she's poisoning me, what should I do?" The Rabbi then
offers, "Tell you what. Let me talk to her, I'll see what I can find
out and I'll let you know." A week later the Rabbi calls the man and says,
"Well, I spoke to your wife. I spoke to her on the phone for three hours.
You want my advice?" The man said yes and the Rabbi replied, "Take the
poison."
A
couple of dollars
Jon was standing on a street corner waiting to cross when a man approached him
and asked him for a couple of dollars for dinner. Jon took out his wallet,
extracted two dollars and asked, "If I gave you this money, will you take it and
buy whiskey?"
"No, I stopped drinking years ago," the bum said.
"Will you use it to gamble?"
"I don't gamble. I need everything I can get just to stay alive."
"Will you spend the money on greens fees at a golf course?"
"Are you NUTS! I haven't played golf in 20 years!"
Jon said, "Well, I'm not going to give you two dollars. Instead, I'm going to
take you to my home for a terrific dinner cooked by my wife."
The bum was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that? I
know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty bad."
"Hey, man, that's OK!" Jon responded, "I just want her to see what a man looks
like who's given up drinking, gambling, and golf!"
Only

1,000 Valentines

His curiosity getting the better of him, he went up and asked the balding guy
what he was doing.
The man said, "I'm sending out 1,000 Valentines cards signed, 'guess who?'"
"But why?"
"I'm a divorce lawyer," the man replied.
TEXAN MEN
It takes a Texan Man to make you feel like a WOMAN! On a recent flight, a
plane passes through a severe storm. The turbulence is awful, and things go from
bad to worse when one wing is struck by lightning.
One woman in particular loses it. Screaming, she stands up
at the front of the plane. "I'm too young to die," she wails. Then she yells,
"Well, if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on earth to be memorable! Is
there ANYONE on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN?"
For a moment there is silence. Everyone has forgotten their own peril. They all
stared, riveted, at the desperate woman at the front of the plane. Then a Texan
stands up at the rear of the plane. He is gorgeous: tall, well built, with dark
brown hair and hazel eyes. He starts to walk slowly up the aisle, unbuttoning
his shirt.....one button at a time.
....... No one moves......He removes his shirt. .......Muscles ripple across his chest. ...... She gasps..........He whispers: ....... "Iron this, and get me something to eat...."
