  1. "Under The Sea"

    A number of Primary Schools were doing a project on "The Sea." Kids were asked to draw pictures or write about their experiences. Teachers got together to compare the results and put together some of the comments. Here are some of them -- the funny ones. The kids were all aged between 5 and 8 years...

     

    If you are surrounded by sea you are an Island. If you don't have sea all round you, you are in continent. (Wayne age 7)

     

    I think sharks are ugly and mean, and have big teeth, just like Emily Richardson. She's not my friend any more. (Kylie age 6)

     

    A dolphin breaths through an a**hole on the top of its head. (Billy age 8)

     

    When ships had sails, they used to use the trade winds to cross the ocean. Sometimes, when the wind didn't blow, the sailors would whistle to make the wind come. My brother said they would be better off eating beans. (William age 7)

     

    I like mermaids. They are beautiful, and I like their shiny tails. How do mermaids get pregnant? (Helen age 6)

     

    Some fish are dangerous. Jelly fish can sting. Electric eels can give you a shock. They have to live in caves under the sea where I think they have to plug themselves into chargers. (Christopher age 7)

     

    On holiday my Mom went water skiing. She fell off when she was going very fast. She says she won't do it again because water shot up her fanny. (Julie age 7 )

     

     

     

     

     

     

    5th Graders

    About 90 fifth-graders piled into the airliner I was flying, on their way home from a school trip. Once we were in the air, and the crew began serving drinks, I could hear them pleading with the children to settle down and let the other passengers get some sleep.

     

    No amount of reasoning seemed to help, until I thought of the solution that actually worked. I picked up the PA mike in the cockpit and announced, "Children, this is the captain speaking. Don't make me stop this airplane and come back there!"

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Bottle of Wine

    For all of us who are married, were married, wish you were married, or wish you weren't married, this is something to smile about the next time you open a bottle of wine.

     

    Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in Northern Arizona when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road. As the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo woman if she would like a ride.

     

    With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got into the car. Resuming the journey, Sally tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with the Navajo woman. The old woman just sat silently, looking intently at everything she saw, studying every little detail, until she noticed a brown bag on the seat next to Sally.

     

    "What's in the bag?" asked the old woman.

     

    Sally looked down at the brown bag and said, "It's a bottle of wine. got it for my husband." The Navajo woman was silent for another moment or two. Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, she said, "Good trade."

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Off to School...

    A wealthy New York businessman who sent his two daughters to the University of California's Los Angeles campus in the hope that they would find something unusual to study there that would stir them out their apathy. He was considerably alarmed, however, when they wrote back to tell him that they both had decided to specialize in research on ancient Egyptian plumbing.

     

    He immediately sent them a telegram which read, "Under no circumstances will I support a couple of Pharaoh Faucet Majors!"

  2. Senior Breakfast

    We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the "seniors' special" was two eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast for $1.99.

     

    "Sounds good," my wife said. "But I don't want the eggs."

     

    "Then I'll have to charge you two dollars and forty-nine cents because you're ordering a la carte," the waitress warned her.

     

    "You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?" My wife asked incredulously. "I'll take the special."

     

    "How do you want your eggs?"

     

    "Raw and in the shell," my wife replied. She took the two eggs home. DON'T MESS WITH SENIORS

    Squirrel Quarrel

    Two little squirrels were walking along in the forest. The first one spied a nut and cried out, "Oh, look! A nut!"

     

    The second squirrel jumped on it and said, "It's my nut!"

     

    The first squirrel said, "That's not fair! I saw it first!" "Well, you may have seen it, but I have it," argued the second.

     

    At that point, a lawyer squirrel came up and said, "You shouldn't quarrel. Let me resolve this dispute."

     

    The two squirrels nodded, and the lawyer squirrel said, "Now, give me the nut."

     

    He broke the nut in half, and handed half to each squirrel, saying, "See! It was foolish of you to fight. Now the dispute is resolved." Then he reached over and said, "And for my fee, I'll take the meat."

    So the man says sarcastically, mocking the waiter, "Very well, then I'd

    like a gorilla sandwhich, please!"

     

    The waiter replies, "I'm sorry, Sir, but I cannot get you that."

     

    The man laughs and says, "I thought you could get me anything?!"

     

    Says the waiter,"I'm sorry, we've run out of bread!"

    Golfing on Sunday

    The Reverend Francis Norton woke up Sunday morning and, realizing it was an exceptionally beautiful and sunny early spring day, decided he just had to play golf. So... he told the Associate Pastor that he was feeling sick and convinced him to say Mass for him that day.

     

    As soon as the Associate Pastor left the room, Father Norton headed out of town to a golf course about forty miles away. This way he knew he wouldn't accidentally meet anyone he knew from his parish. Setting up on the first tee, he was alone. After all, it was Sunday morning and everyone else was in church!

     

    At about this time, Saint Peter leaned over to the Lord while looking down from the heavens and exclaimed, "You're not going to let him get away with this, are you?"

     

    The Lord sighed, and said, "No, I guess not."

     

    Just then Father Norton hit the ball and it shot straight towards the pin, dropping just short of it, rolled up and fell into the hole. It WAS A 420 YARD HOLE IN ONE!

     

    St. Peter was astonished. He looked at the Lord and asked, "Why did you let him do that?"

     

    The Lord smiled and replied, "Who's he going to tell?"

  5. Exercise for seniors...

    Just came across this exercise suggested for seniors, to build musclestrength in the arms and shoulders. It seems so easy, so I thought I'd pass it on to some of my younger friends. The article suggested doing it three days a week.

     

    Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side.

     

    With a 5-lb. potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides, and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, then relax.

     

    Each day, you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer.

     

    After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb. potato sacks.

     

    Then 50-lb. potato sacks, and eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb. potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute.

     

    After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks; but be careful.

     

     

     

     

     

    Hoover!

    Father Murphy was playing golf with a parishioner. On the first hole, he sliced into the rough. His opponent heard him mutter, "Hoover!" under his breath.

     

    On the second hole, the ball went straight into a water hazard. "Hoover!" again, a little louder this time.

     

    On the third hole, a miracle occured & Fr. Murphy's drive landed on the green only six inches from the hole! "Praise be to God!"

     

    He carefully lined up the putt, but the ball curved around the hole instead of going in. "HOOVER!"

     

    By this time, his opponent couldn't withhold his curiosity any longer, and asked why the priest said "Hoover".

     

    "It's the biggest dam I know." he replied. ar native to China. Eats shoots and leaves.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Basic Training

    The story went something like this:

     

    Seargeant: When you are scared, what do you do?

     

    Recruit: Keep on fightin'

     

    Seargeant: Good for you. And now they shoot off your right ear...what then?

     

    Recruit: Keep on fightn'!

     

    Seargeant: Excellent. But now they also shoot off your left ear, what then?

     

    Recruit: Then I can't see.

     

    Seargeant: Can't see? what school did you come from?

     

    Recruit: Well seargeant, when both my ears are gone my helmet falls down...over my eyes.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Promoted

    The boss called one of his employees into the office.

     

    "Rob," he said, "you've been with the company for a year. You started off in the post room, one week later you were promoted to a sales position, and one month after that you were promoted to district manager of the sales department. Just four short months later, you were promoted to vice-chairman.

     

    Now it's time for me to retire, and I want you to take over the company. What do you say to that?"

     

    "Thanks," said the employee.

     

    "Thanks?" the boss replied. "Is that all you can say?"

     

    "I suppose not," the employee said. "Thanks, Dad."

    The Rabbit

    A man is driving along a highway and sees a rabbit jump out across the middle of the road.

     

    He swerves to avoid hitting it, but unfortunately the rabbit jumps right in front of the car. The driver, a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulls over and gets out to see what has become of the rabbit. Much to his dismay, the rabbit is dead. The driver feels so awful that he begins to cry.

     

    A woman driving down the highway sees the man crying on the side of the road and pulls over. She steps out of the car and asks the man what's wrong.

     

    "I feel terrible," he explains, "I accidentally hit this rabbit and killed it."

     

    The blonde says, "Don't worry." She runs to her car and pulls out a spray can. She walks over to the limp, dead rabbit, bends down, and sprays the contents onto the rabbit. The rabbit jumps up, waves its paw at the two of them and hops off down the road.

     

    Ten feet away the rabbit stops, turns around and waves again, he hops down the road another 10 feet, turns and waves, hops another ten feet, turns and waves, and repeats this again and again and again, until he hops out of sight.

     

    The man is astonished.

     

    He runs over to the woman and demands, "What is in that can? What did you spray on that rabbit?"

     

    The woman turns the can around so that the man can read the label.

     

    It says...

     

    (Are you ready for this?)

     

    "Hair Spray: Restores life to dead hair, adds permanent wave."

    The Book

    As chaplain in a university residence hall, I am supposed to uphold all of the school rules, which include a ban on pets. That changed when a kitten adopted me.

     

    The freshmen in my dorm kept my secret. They covered for me by calling my kitten "the Book," since I had so many in my room.

     

    One morning I was leaving the dorm with the kitten in a carrier. A student stopped me and asked, "Where are you taking the Book?"

     

    I explained that I was taking the kitten to the vet. "She's getting neutered today," I told him.

     

    "Hmmm," the student responded, "no sequels."

  7. CEO on a rampage

    A large company, feeling it was time for a shakeup, hired a new CEO. This new boss was determined to rid the company of all slackers. On a tour of the facilities, the CEO noticed a guy leaning on a wall. The room was full of workers and he wanted to let them know that he meant business!

     

    The new CEO walked up to the guy leaning against the wall and asked, "How much money do you make a week?"

     

    A little surprised, the young fellow looked at him and replied, "I make $300.00 a week. Why?"

     

    The CEO then handed the guy $1,200 in cash and screamed, "Here's four weeks' pay, now GET OUT and don't come back."

     

    Feeling pretty good about himself, the CEO looked around the room and asked, "Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-off did here?"

     

    From across the room came a voice, "Pizza delivery guy from Domino's."

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Anniversary Dinner

    On their anniversary night, the husband sat his wife sat down in the den with her favorite magazine, turned on the soft reading lamp, slipped off her shoes, patted and propped her feet and announced that he was preparing dinner all by himself.

     

    "How romantic!" she thought.

     

    Two-and-a-half hours later, she was still waiting for dinner to be served. She tiptoed to the kitchen and found it a colossal mess.

     

    Her hurried husband, removing something indescribable from the smoking oven, saw her in the doorway. "Almost ready!" he vowed. "Sorry it took me so long but I had to refill the pepper shaker."

     

    "Why, honey, how long could that have taken you?"

    keypad on the palm of my hand. It's fantastic."

     

    The bartender is astonished, and the guy goes to sit down & drink his

    beer.

     

    Ten minutes later, he rushes out of the bar into the Men's room. The

    bartender hears groans and screams coming from behind the door, so he

    goes to investigate.

     

    He walks into the bathroom to see the guy, finger to mouth and thumb in

    ear, on the floor with his trousers round his ankles, groaning in

    agony.

     

    "What is it, can I help?" the bartender asks, worried.

     

    "No..," the guy grunts back, "it's okay... I'm just waiting for a fax

    to come through..."

    After being with her all evening, the man couldn't take another minute with his blind date.

     

    Earlier, he had secretly arranged to have a friend call him to the phone so he would have an excuse to leave if something like this happened.

     

    When he returned to the table, he lowered his eyes, put on a grim _expression and said, "I have some bad news. My grandfather just died."

     

    "Thank heaven," his date replied. "If yours hadn't, mine would have had too."

    Hearing Aids

    An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%. The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again."

     

    The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to the conversations. I've changed my will three times!"

    The woman freed the frog and the frog said, "Thank you, but I failed to

    mention that there was a condition to your wishes (naturally) -that

    whatever you wish for, your husband will get 10 times more or better!"

     

    The woman said, "That would be okay," and for her first wish, she

    wanted to be the most beautiful woman in the world.

     

    The frog warned her, "You do realize that this wish will also make your

    husband the most handsome man in the world, an Adonis, that women will

    flock to."

     

    The woman replied, "That will be okay because I will be the most

    beautiful woman and he will only have eyes for me."

     

    So, KAZAM - she's the most beautiful woman in the world!

     

    For her second wish, she wanted to be the richest woman in the world.

    The frog said, "That will make your husband the richest man in the world

    and he will be ten times richer than you. " The woman said, "That will

    be okay because what is mine is his and what is his is mine."

     

    So, KAZAM she's the richest woman in the world! The frog then inquired

    about her third wish, and she answered, "I'd like a mild heart attack."

    "Hey, want to hear a really great blond joke?" He says when the bartender

    brings him his drink.

     

    The place goes quiet, then the guy sitting on his left leans over and says in a

    low voice: "Before you tell that joke, you should know something. The bartender

    is blond, the bouncer is blond and I'm a 6' tall, 200 lb blond with a black belt

    in karate. The guy sitting on your right is 6'2," weighs 225 and he's a rugby

    We're all blonds. Think about it, Pal. You really wanna tell that joke?"

     

    The blind guy thinks for a minute, then says, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to

    explain it five times."

    Darn Women Drivers

    This morning on the Freeway I looked over to my left and there was a woman in a brand new Cadilac doing 65 mph with her face up next to her rear view mirror putting on her eyeliner.

     

    I looked away for a couple of seconds and when I looked back she was halfway over in my lane, still working on that makeup.

     

    As a man, I don't scare easily. But she scared me so much; I dropped my electric shaver, which knocked the donut out of my other hand. In all the confusion of trying to straighten out the car using my knees against the steering wheel, it knocked my cell phone away from my ear which fell into the coffee between my legs, splashed, and burned everything it touched, ruined the darn phone, soaked my trousers and disconnected an important call.

     

    Darn women drivers...

    Teenage Driver

    I decided to stop worrying about my teenage son's driving and take advantage of it.

     

    I got one of those bumper stickers that say, "How's my driving?" and put a 900 number on it.

     

    "At 50 cents a call, I've been making $38 a week!"

  14. Buttercup,

     

    Sorry to hear about your brother and his truck and thank goodness he is o.k. I don't know what it is with people driving fast, willing to kill someone or be killed to get to where they are going. I drive a van and it never fails everyone pulls out in front of me because they don't want to be behind a van, well a van weighs alot more than a car and has to brake sooner to stop with the weight. I was driving home on 278 towards Dallas and some moron coming out at the red light at Checkers decided he didn't want to yeild and pulled out onto 278 I had to slam on my brakes because of this moron! Hope your brother gets his truck fixed soon what a shame with it being new and all.

    School Lunch

    At the head of the serving line was a large pile of apples. One of the nuns made a note that said: "Take only one, God is watching."

     

    Seeing this Little Johnny made a note of his own and placed it at the other end of the serving line, in front of a large pile of chocolate chip cookies.

    "Yes," said her friend, "My first marriage was to a millionaire;

    my second marriage was to an actor;

    my third marriage was to a preacher;

    and now I'm married to an undertaker."

    couldn't step. She reached behind her and lowered the zipper a bit and

    tried again.

     

    The skirt was still too tight. She reached behind her and lowered the

    zipper some more.

     

    She still couldn't get on the bus and lowered the zipper a third time.

    All of a sudden, she felt two hands on her butt, which proceeded to

    push her up onto the bus.

     

    She spun around, with anger in her eyes and said very indignantly,

    "Sir, I do not know you well enough for you to behave in such a manner."

     

    The man smiled coyly and said, "Lady, I don't know you well enough

    either for you to unzip my fly three times either!"

    Before the man could even react to the eye-poking, the people on the

    other side of the fence begin a monotone chant of...

     

    "Fourteen! Fourteen! Fourteen!"

    The next morning as the pilot was preparing the crew for the day's

    route, he noticed the new stewardess was missing. He knew which room she

    was in at the hotel and called her up to ask what happened to her.

     

    She answered the phone, crying, and said, "I can't get out of the

    room!"

     

    "You can't get out of your room?" the captain asked. "Why not?"

    "Don't make such a big deal, it's only an earring," he replies sheepishly.

    "So, how long have you been wearing one?"

     

    "Ever since my wife found it in my truck."

    I like the cage idea. We live in a subdivison and my cat has long fur and is constantly cleaning herself to make her beautiful so if she got out she probably wouldn't go far because she is a neat freak. Too many loose dogs so the cage is ideal, will give that a try Thanks!
