Hello Everyone!

I was just watching the Bonnie Hunt Show today, and she has a feature where her mom, Alice, appears on the show through an internet camera feed. You never know what Alice is going to come up with next--a bizarre household hint or a joke, or ???. This was one of her jokes today:

"A woman was discussing with her husband what she wanted as a gift for her birthday. She said, 'I'll give you a hint. I want something shiny and silver that will go 0 to 150 in about 6 seconds!!'

So can you guess what he gave her?............(drum roll)............ A SCALE!!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

  • Lol!! That's soooo funny!! :laugh:

    Later in the show a comic named George Wallace was a guest, and he was talking about having gained weight from visiting Savannah and eating comfort food at Paula Deen's restaurant. He was explaining how he avoided the healthy "California soy" type of food, and said he was thinking about opening a restaurant called "All this Crap is Bad for You!!":laugh: :laugh:

    He had some hilarious stories, including how he discovered that when you are wearing a Snuggie, using the restroom can be "challenging." Also, since he bought lots of things from tv infomercials, he went to a funeral for the pitchman who recently passed, and he said the service took a long time because every time they tried to wrap it up, someone would stand up and shout "But Wait!!
    :laugh: :laugh:

    You can see his entire segment by going to:

    http://www.bonniehunt.com/videos/

    There will be a link to the right showing his name. If you go to view the page after today, you can search for the video by name on the site. The feel good moment of the day with the Rottweiler puppy is very cute also.

    Have a good day. Remember, you can't EAT when you are laughing!!!!

    Here is a joke I just received today:

    "A man was driving down the road and ran out of gas. Just at that moment, a bee flew in his window.

    The bee said, 'What seems to be the problem?'

    'I'm out of gas,' the man replied.

    The bee told the man to wait right there and flew away. Minutes later, the man watched as an entire swarm of bees flew to his car and into his gas tank. After a few minutes, the bees flew out.

    'Try it now,' said one bee.

    The man turned the ignition key and the car started right up. 'Wow!' the man exclaimed, 'what did you put in my gas tank'?

    The bee answered,
    v

    v

    v

    Wait for it.....wait for it..

    You're just gonna love this..

    "BP":noway: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    (I got this in an email, but the image won't copy into my post, but I will let you guess what the picture showed the bee doing-LOL)

    BTW, Manda, I hope your doggie isn't as big a brat as my Lhasa is. Her philosophy of life is simple: "It's my way or the highway." A neighbor of mine refers to her as my "boss." :laugh:

    In keeping with the philosophy "ya can't eat if your laughing" another day, another joke:

    You Can’t Beat A Dead Horse (For Fun And Profit)

    Young Chuck in Montana bought a horse from a farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the horse the next day. The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad news... the horse died."

    Chuck replied, "Well, then just give me my money back."

    The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already."

    Chuck said, "Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse.":noway:

    The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?"

    Chuck said, "I'm going to raffle him off."

    The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead horse!"

    Chuck said, "Sure I can,:noway: Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead."

    A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, "What happened with that dead horse?"

    Chuck said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998.":smokin: :drinker: :drinker:

    The farmer said, "Didn't anyone complain?"

    Chuck said, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."

    Chuck grew up and now works for the government. He's the one who figured out how this "bail-out" is going to work.:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    " Morning Sex"

    She was standing in the kitchen, preparing our usual
    Soft-boiled eggs and toast for breakfast, wearing only
    The 'T' shirt that she normally slept in.
    As I walked in, almost awake, she turned to me and said
    Softly, “You’ve got to make love to me this very moment!"

    My eyes lit up and I thought, "I am either still dreaming
    Or this is going to be my lucky day!"
    Not wanting to lose the moment, I embraced her and then
    Gave it my all; right there on the kitchen table.

    Afterwards she said, "Thanks," and returned to the stove,
    Her T-shirt still around her neck.

    Happy, but a little puzzled, I asked,
    "What was that all about?"
    She explained, "The egg timer's broken."

    As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door.

    The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you are losing some of your load."

    The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street.
    When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again.
    She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door.

    Again, the trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"

    Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the street.

    At the third red light, the same thing happens again.

    All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck door. The trucker rolls down the window. Again she says "Hi, my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"

    When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next light.

    When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde.


    He knocks on her window, and after she lowers it, he says...

    "Hi, my name is Mark. It's winter in Utah and I'm driving the
    SALT TRUCK!"

    One dark night outside a small town in Minnesota , a fire started inside
    the local chemical plant and in a blink of an eye it exploded into massive
    flames. The alarm went out to all the fire departments for miles around.

    When the volunteer fire fighters appeared on the scene, the chemical
    company president rushed to the fire chief and said, "All our secret formulas
    are in the vault in the center of the plant They must be saved. I will give
    $50,000 to the fire department that brings them out intact."

    But the roaring flames held the firefighters off.

    Soon more fire departments had to be called in as the situation became
    desperate. As the firemen arrived, the president shouted out that the offer
    was now $100,000 to the fire department who could bring out the company's secret files.

    From the distance, a lone siren was heard as another fire truck came
    into sight. It was the nearby Swedish rural township volunteer fire company
    composed mainly of Swedes over the age of 65. To everyone's amazement,
    that little run-down fire engine roared right past all the newer sleek engines that
    were parked outside the plant.

    Without even slowing down it drove straight into the middle of the
    inferno. Outside, the other firemen watched as the Swedish old timers jumped
    off right in the middle of the fire fought it back on all sides. It was a
    performance and effort never seen before.

    Within a short time, the Swedish old timers had extinguished the fire and
    had saved the secret formulas. The grateful chemical company president announced
    that for such a superhuman feat he was upping the reward to $200,000,
    and walked over to personally thank each of the brave fire fighters.

    The local TV news reporter rushed in to capture the event on film,
    asking their chief, "What are you going to do with all that money?"

    "Vell," said Ole Larsen, the 70-year-old fire chief, "Da first thing ve
    gonna do is fix da brakes on dat focking truck!!"

    Well, RoadDog, you've done it again!! Hilarious.


    Here is one for everyone, not quite as knee-slapping funny as the previous story, but I think we can all relate to it. Thanks to "exermom," on another thread that I participate in, for this little gem:
    A short prayer:
    Dear God:

    For 2011, all I ask for is a big fat bank account and a slim body.

    Please do not mix up the two like you did last year.

    Amen

    Happy Super Bowl, everyone

    Lewinsky and Kaczynski

    The Washington Post runs a weekly contest in its Style section called
    the 'Style Invitational'.

    The requirements were to use the two words 'Lewinsky' (the Clinton White House Intern) and 'Kaczynski' (the Unabomber) in the same limerick.

    Now, remember, the following winning entries were actually printed
    verbatim in the newspaper, no bleeps or xxxs:


    Third place:

    There once was a girl named Lewinsky
    Who played on a flute like Stravinsky
    'Twas 'Hail to the Chief'
    On this flute made of beef
    That stole the front page from Kaczynski.


    Second place:

    Said Clinton to young Ms. Lewinsky,
    We don't want to leave clues like Kaczynski,
    Since you made such a mess,
    Use the hem of your dress
    And please wipe that stuff off your chinsky.



    And the winning entry:

    Lewinsky and Clinton have shown
    What Kaczynski must surely have known,
    That an intern is better
    Than a bomb in a letter,
    When deciding how best to be blown.

    The Italian Nursing Home
    A Mexican family was considering putting their grandfather (Abuelo) in a nursing home. All the Hispanic facilities were completely full so they had to put him in an Italian home.
    After a few weeks in the Italian facility, they came to visit Grandpa.
    'How do you like it here?' asks the grandson.
    'It's wonderful! Everyone here is so courteous and respectful, says grandpa.
    'We're so happy for you. We were worried that this was the wrong place for you. You know, since you are a little different from everyone.'
    Oh, no! Let me tell you about how wonderfully they treat the residents. Abuelo says with a big smile. 'There's a musician here -- he's 85 years old. He hasn't played the violin in 20 years and everyone still calls him 'Maestro'!'
    There is a judge in here -- he's 95 years old. He hasn't been on the bench in 30 years and everyone still calls him 'Your Honor'!'
    'There's a dentist here -- 90 years old. He hasn't fixed a tooth for 25 years and everyone still calls him Doctor!'
    And me -- I haven't had sex for 35 years and they still call me 'The F__king Mexican'

    A depressed young woman was so desperate that she decided to end her life by throwing herself into the ocean. When she went down to the docks, a handsome young sailor noticed her tears, took pity on her, and said, "Look, you've got a lot to live for. I'm off to Europe in the morning, and if you like, I can stow you away on my ship. I'll take good care of you and bring you food every day."

    Moving closer, he slipped his arm around her shoulder and added, "I'll keep you happy, and you'll keep me happy."

    The girl nodded 'yes.' After all, what did she have to lose?
    That night, the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a life-boat. From then on, every night he brought her three sandwiches and a piece of fruit, and they made passionate love until dawn.

    Three weeks later, during a routine search, she was discovered by the captain.
    "What are you doing here?" the Captain asked.
    "I have an arrangement with one of the sailors," she explained.
    "He's taking me to Europe, and he's screwing me."
    To which the Captain replied, "He sure is, lady... This is the Staten Island Ferry."

    A virile, middle-aged Italian gentleman named Guido was relaxing at his favorite bar
    in Rome when he managed to attract a spectacular young blonde woman.

    Things progressed to the point where he invited her back to his apartment and, after
    some small talk, they retired to his bedroom where he rattled her senseless.

    After a pleasant interlude he asked with a smile, "So, you finish?"

    She paused for a second, frowned, and replied, "No."

    Surprised, Guido reached for her and the rattling resumed. This time she thrashed
    about wildly and there were screams of passion..

    The sex finally ends and, again, Guido smiles and asks, "You finish?"

    Again, after a short pause, she returns his smile, cuddles closer to him and softly
    says, "No."

    Stunned, but damned if he was going to leave this woman unsatisfied, Guido reaches
    for the woman yet again. Using the last of his strength, he barely manages it, but they
    end together screaming, bucking, clawing and ripping the bed sheets.

    Exhausted, Guido falls onto his back, gasping. Barely able to turn his head, he looks
    into her eyes, smiles proudly and asked again, "You finish?"

    Barely able to speak, the beautiful blond whispers in his ear, "No, I'm Norwegian."

    Here's one:

    I, P. Niss, hereby request a raise in salary on the following terms:

    - I do physical labour
    - I work at great depths
    - I work in high temperatures
    - I work in a damp environment
    - I plunge head first into everything I do
    - I do not get weekends or public holidays off
    - My work exposes me to contagious diseases
    - I work in a dark work place that has poor ventilation

    Sincerely,
    P. Niss

    The Response:

    Dear P. Niss,

    After assessing your request, and considering the arguments you have raised, the administration rejects your request under the following reasons:

    - You are unable to work double shifts
    - You do not work 8 hours straight
    - You will retire well before you are 65
    - You fall asleep after brief work periods
    - You do not always follow the orders of the management team
    - You do not stay in your designated work area and are often seen visiting other locations
    - You do not take initiative - you need to be pressured and stimulated in order to start working
    - You leave the work place rather messy at the end of your shift
    - You do not always observe necessary safety regulations, such as; wearing the required protective clothing
    - You sometimes leave your designated work area before you have completed an assinged task
    - And if that were not all, you have been seen constantly entering and exiting the workplace carrying two suspicious looking bags.

    Sincerly,
    V. Gine
