The Purpose of Things

Gay Bob goes into the doctor's office and has some tests run.

The doctor comes back and says, "Bob, I'm not going to beat around the bush. You have AIDS."

Bob is devastated. "Doc, what can I do?".

"Eat 1 sausage, 1 head of cabbage, 20 unpeeled carrots drenched in hot sauce, 10 Jalapeno peppers, 40 walnuts and 40 peanuts, 1/2 box of Grape nuts cereal, and top it off with a gallon of prune juice."

Bob asks, "Will that cure me, Doc?"

17. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a No.9.
(Bet you all did this one!?!?!?)
 
Ma and Pa

Ma and Pa got married at an early age. In their golden years they would sit on the front porch swing and rock back and forth.
One day as they were on the porch swing, the old woman reached over and smacked the old man on the back of the head so hard, that he fell out of the swing. "What the heck was that for?" asked the old man. "For 50 years of bad sex!" replied the old woman.

The old man sat down on the porch swing again, rubbing his head. After a few minutes, Pa reaches over and smacks Ma off the porch swing. She looked up at Pa and asked " What the heck was that for?" Pa looked at her and said "Thats for knowing the dang difference!"

TO BE SIX AGAIN

A man asked his wife what she'd like for Mother's Day.
"I'd love to be six again, " she replied.

On the morning of Mother's Day, he arose early, got up made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms and then took her off to the local theme park.

What a day! He put her on every ride in the park: the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller Coaster, everything there was. Five hours later she staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down. Right away, they journeyed to a McDonald's where her loving 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, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure!

Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned over his precious wife with a big smile and lovingly asked, "Well, Dear, what was it like being six again?"

Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed. "You idiot, I meant my dress size!"

The moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it Wrong. . .

The Dinner Party

Wicked Eve prepared a pasta dish for a dinner party she was giving for her fellow poets. In her haste, however, she forgot to refrigerate the spaghetti sauce, and it sat on the counter all day. She was worried about spoilage, but it was too late to cook up another batch.

She called the local Poison Control Center and voiced her concern. They advised the Wicked one to boil the sauce again.

That night, the phone rang during dinner, and smithpeter volunteered to answer it. Eve's face dropped as the poet called out, "It's the Poison Control Center. They want to know how the spaghetti sauce turned out."
 
Management Training

An Indian walks into a Houston bar with a shotgun in one hand and a bucket of buffalo manure in the other. He says to the waiter, "Me want coffee."

The waiter says, "Sure chief, coming right up." He gets the Indian a tall mug of coffee, and the Indian drinks it down in one gulp, picks up the bucket of manure, throws it into the air, blasts it with the shotgun, then just walks out.

The next morning the Indian returns. He has his shotgun in one hand and a bucket of buffalo manure in the other. He walks up to the counter and says to the waiter, "Me want coffee." The waiter says, "Whoa, Tonto. We're still cleaning up your mess from the last time you were here. What the heck was all that about, anyway?"

The Indian smiles and proudly says, "Me training for upper management position. Come in, drink coffee, shoot shit, leave a mess for others to clean up, and disappear for rest of day."
 
Politics and Hot Air

Another from my Texas Friends. :)

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him,

"Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."

The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude."

She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."

"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"

"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."

The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat."

"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," said the man, "you have no idea where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect ME to solve your problem. You're in EXACTLY the same position you were in before we met, but somehow, now it's MY fault!
 
Celibacy

Celibacy can be a choice in life, or a condition imposed by environmental factors.

While attending a Marriage Encounter Weekend, Charlie and his wife listened to the instructor declare,
"It is essential that husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other."

He addressed the men,
"For instance, can you name and describe your wife's favorite flower?"

Charlie leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered,
"Pillsbury All-purpose, isn't it?


And thus began Charlie's life of celibacy.
 
The Pond

An elderly poet had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back, fixed up nice; picnic tables, horseshoe courts, basketball court, etc.

The pond was properly shaped and fixed up for swimming when it was built.

One evening the old poet decided to go down to the pond since he hadn't been there for a while, look it over, and enjoy the peace and serenity he so desired. 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 poets skinny dipping in his pond.

He made the young lady poets aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end of the pond. One of the women (named Judo) shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave!"

The elderly poet calmly replied, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim or make you get out of the pond naked."

"I'm here to feed the alligator."

Moral: Old age and cunning will triumph over youth and enthusiasm every time

IDIOTS

IDIOTS IN SERVICE

This week, our phones went dead and I had to contact the telephone repair people. They promised to be out between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. When I asked if they could give me a smaller time window, the pleasant gentleman asked, "Would you like us to call you before we come?" I replied that I didn't see how he would be able to do that since our phones weren't working.

IDIOTS AT WORK:

I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card. She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the card was signed. When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature I had just signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared the signature to the one I had just signed on the receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.


IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD:

I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: cars were hitting too many deer and she didn't want them to cross there anymore.


IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE:

I went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. I asked the person behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.


IDIOT SIGHTING #1:

I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" To which I replied, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?" She smiled knowingly and nodded, "That's why we ask."


IDIOT SIGHTING #2:

The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with a co-worker when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?"


IDIOT SIGHTING #3:

At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker who is leaving the company due to "downsizing," our manager commented cheerfully, "This is fun. We should do this more often."
Not a word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the-headlights stare.


IDIOT SIGHTING #4:

I worked with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the life of her couldn't understand why her system would not turn on.


IDIOT SIGHTING #5:

When I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up my car, I was told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "it's open!" To which he replied, "I know - I already got that side."
 
Health Insurance

Two men are in the doctor's office waiting to get vasectomies.

A nurse comes in and asks the men to strip and put on their
medical gowns while they wait for the doctor.

A few minutes later she comes back, reaches under
one man's gown and begins to masturbate him.

Shocked, he says, "My God, what are you doing?"
To which she replies,
We have to vacate the sperm from your system to have a clean procedure."

Not wanting to cause a problem, the man relaxes
and enjoys it as she completes her task.

The second man watches all of this and by the time
the nurse turns to him he is quite ready for his turn.
To his surprise, she drops to her knees, opens her lips
and begins to give him a blow job.

The first man says, "Hey, what is this? Why is it
that I get a hand job and he gets a blow job?"

The nurse says, "That, sir, is the difference
between Government Health Care and Private Insurance."
 
A Story for Xtaabay

When NASA was preparing for the Apollo Project, they took the Astronauts to a Navajo Reservation in Arizona for training. One day, a Navajo elder and his son came across the space crew walking among the rocks.

The elder, who spoke only Navajo, asked a question. His son translated for the NASA People: “What are these guys in the big suits doing?” One of the Astronauts said that they were practicing for a trip to the moon.

When his son relayed this comment to the Navajo elder, the elder got all excited, and asked if it would be possible to give to the Astronauts a message to deliver to the Moon?

Recognizing a promotional opportunity when he saw one, a NASA Official accompanying the Astronauts said, “Why certainly!” and told an underling to get a tape recorder.

The Navajo elder’s comments into the microphone were brief. The NASA Official asked the son if he would translate what his father had said.

The son listened to the recording and laughed uproariously. But he refused to translate. So the NASA people took the tape to a nearby Navajo Village and played it for other members of the tribe. They too laughed long and loudly, but refused to translate the elder’s message to the Moon.

Finally, an Official government translator was summoned. After he finally stopped laughing the translator relayed the message:
“Watch out for these assholes! They have come to steal your land!!!”
 
Divorce and the Holidays

A man in Houston calls his son in New York the day before Thanksgiving and says, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; forty-five years of misery is enough."

"Dad, what are you talking about?!" the son wails.

"We can't stand the sight of each other any longer." the father says.
"We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her."

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "No way they're getting divorced!" she shouts, "I'll take care of this."

She calls Houston immediately and yells at her father, "You are not getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?!" and hangs up.

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay," he says, "They're coming for Thanksgiving and paying their own way."

Two Middle Eastern terrorists are chatting.

One pulls his wallet out and starts flipping through pictures.
"This is my oldest son. He's a martyr."
"Here's my second son. He's a martyr too."

After a pause and a deep sigh, the second terrorist wistfully says,
"They blow up so fast, don't they?"
