Gunney's Sack of Jokes 5


THE CHECKOUT LINE

A woman was waiting in the check-out line at a shopping center. Her arms were laden with a mop and broom and other cleaning supplies. By her actions and deep sighs, it was obvious she was in a hurry, and was not happy about the slowness of the line.

When the cashier called for a price check on a box of soap, the woman remarked indignantly, "Well, I'll be lucky to get out of here and home before Easter!"

"Don't worry, ma'am," replied the clerk. "With that wind kicking up out there and that brand new broom you have there, you'll be home in no time."

WHY GOD MADE BIKERS by Animal

God made the world with long streets and bright lights.
Beautiful women and bars with Bud Light
Then he paused and said 'It needs just one more thing!'
Someone to drink and fight, and get his ass in a sling.
A man to ride his Harley down the streets at a 100mph
Just to hit one more bar before the closing hour.
He has long hair and he wears a long beard
He's loved by most women, but by most men he's feared.
He wears oil stained Levis and black Tees,
A cut off Levi jacket and a bandana tied to his leg just above his knee.
The cops don't like him, to them he's just a pest,
Just because we're different from all the rest.
They pull our ass over every chance they get,
And ya know 90% of the time we ain't done shit.
So ya see us bikers aren't all mean and tough,
We even do lots of good stuff.
Like Toys for Tots, we do this run every year,
For this alone ya should buy him a beer.
We give of our time, and money to children's hospitals is another.
Some of these kids never get a visit,
Not even from their mothers.
So ya see God didn't make bikers
Any different than most others.
He just blessed us with a world
Full of Damn Rigtheous Brothers.

GOD WILL HELP ME

There was a man, call him Jim, who lived near a river.
Jim was a very religious man. One day, the river rose over the banks and flooded the town, and Jim was forced to climb onto his porch roof.
While sitting there, a man in a boat comes along and tells Jim to get in the boat with him.
Jim says "No, that's ok. God will take care of me." So, the man in the boat drives off.
The water rises, so Jim climbs onto his roof. At that time, another boat comes along and the person in that one tells Jim to get in.
Jim replies, "No, that's ok. God will take care of me." The person in the boat then leaves.
The water rises even more, and Jim climbs on his chimney.
Then a helicopter comes and lowers a ladder. The woman in the helicopter tells Jim to climb up the ladder and get in.
Jim tells her "That's ok." The woman says "Are you sure?" Jim says, "Yeah, I'm sure God will take care of me.
Finally, the water rises too high and Jim drowns. Jim gets up to Heaven and is face-to-face with God.
Jim says to God "You told me you would take care of me!
What happened?" God replied "Well, I sent you two boats and a helicopter.
What else did you want?"

 

Signs it's your last day at work...

You hand a bank teller an envelope,
and when she asks, "What's this?"
you realize you just dropped the company's deposit in a mailbox
and gave her your mail.

As a woman comes into the store,
you turn to the other salesman and say,
"I waited on the last fat ugly old lady. This one's your turn!"
Your boss is standing behind you.
And it's his wife.

While your boss is at lunch, you sneak in
and look at some confidential information on his computer.
You spill coffee on the keyboard.
It shorts out.

You return from a week's vacation to find
that you had scheduled *this* week as vacation,
not last week.

You take a "sick" day.
The next morning the boss asks you,
"So, how was the fishing on Rock Creek yesterday?"

You wake up hung over.
You have a black eye and barked knuckles.
Your underwear is missing.
You're in jail.
Last night was the company Christmas party.

 

THE SMARTER SEX

A woman and a man are involved in a car accident; it's a bad one.
Both of their cars are totally demolished but amazingly neither of them are hurt.
After they crawl out of their cars, the woman says,
"So you're a man, that's interesting. I'm a woman. Wow, just look at our cars!
There's nothing left, but fortunately we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days."
The man replied, "I agree with you completely."
"This must be a sign from God!" The woman continued,
"And look at this, here's another miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune."
Then she hands the bottle to the man,
The man nods his head in agreement, opens it and drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman.
The woman takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the man.
The man asks, "Aren't you having any?"
The woman replies, "No. I think I'll just wait for the police..."

 

The Magician and The Parrot

A magician was working on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. The audience would be different each week, so the magician allowed himself to do the same tricks over and over again.
There was only one problem: The captain's parrot saw the shows every week and began to understand what the magician does in every trick.
Once he understood that, he started shouting in the middle of the show:
Look, it's not the same hat
Look, he is hiding the flowers under the table!
Hey, why are all the cards the Ace of Spades?
The magician was furious but couldn't do anything, it was the captain's parrot after all.
One day the ship had an accident and sunk. The magician found himself on a piece of wood, in the middle of the ocean, with the parrot of course.
They stared at each other with hate, but did not utter a word.
This went on for a day, and another, and another.
After a week the parrot finally said: OK. I give up.
What'd you do with the boat?

 

The Wizard

An old man goes to the Wizard to ask him if he can remove a curse he has been living with for the last 40 years.

The old man says without hesitation, "I now pronounce you man and wife."

 

The Bear and The Rabbit

Now Mr. Bear and Mr. Rabbit didn't like each other very much and one day, whilst they were walking through the woods they came across a golden frog.
The frog turned to them and said: "Ooh, I don't often meet anyone in these parts."
They were amazed that the frog had talked to them.
The golden frog admitted: "Mind you, when I do meet someone I always give them six wishes.
You can have three wishes each in this case.
Mr. Bear immediately wished that all the other bears in the forest were females.
The frog granted his wish.
Mr. Rabbit, after thinking for a while, wished for a crash helmet. One appeared immediately, and he placed it on his head.
Mr.. Bear was amazed at Mr. Rabbit's wish, but carried on with his second wish.
He wished that all the bears in the neighboring forests were females as well, and the frog granted his wish.
Mr. Rabbit then wished for a motorcycle. It appeared before him, and he climbed on board and started revving the engine.
Mr. Bear could not believe it and complained that Mr. Rabbit had wasted two wishes that he could have had for himself.

Shaking his head, Mr. Bear made his final wish, that all the other bears in the world were females as well, leaving him as the only male bear in the world.
The frog replied that it had been done, and they both turned to Mr. Rabbit for his last wish.
Mr. Rabbit revved the engine, thought for a second, then said:
"I wish that Mr. Bear was gay!" and rode off as fast as he could!

SPEEDING

Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a State Police Officer sees a car puttering along at 22 MPH. He thinks to himself, "This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder!" So he turns on his lights and pulls the driver over.

Approaching the car, he notices that there are five old ladies -- two in the front seat and three in the back - eyes wide and white as ghosts.

The driver, obviously confused, says to him, "Officer, I don't understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?"

"Ma'am," the officer replies, "You weren't speeding, but you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers."

"Slower than the speed limit?" she asked. No sir, I was doing the speed limit exactly... Twenty-Two miles an hour!" the old woman says a bit proudly. The State Police officer, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that "22" was the route number, not the speed limit. A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned and thanked the officer for pointing out her error.

"But before I let you go, Ma'am, I have to ask... Is everyone in this car ok?
These women seem awfully shaken and they haven't muttered a single peep this whole time." the officer asks.

"Oh, they'll be alright in a minute officer. We just got off Route 119."

"But officer, I just wanted to say...."

"And I said to keep quiet!  You're going to jail!"

A few hours later the officer looked in on his prisoner and said, "Lucky for you that the chief is at his daughter's wedding. He'll be in a good mood when he gets back."

"Don't count on it," answered the fellow in the cell. "I'm the groom."

DIXIE PRIDE

A bus driver is conducting a tour of famous Civil War battle sites. "Here," he points out at one spot, "is where the Southern troops routed a whole regiment of Yankees.  Over there, the Rebs wiped out a whole platoon of Yanks.  Down about a mile, there's another valley where we captured a thousand Union soldiers."

A tourist says, "Didn't the North ever win a battle?"

"Yes ma'am.  But not while I'm driving this bus."

 

Subject: Letter

Someone who teaches at a Middle School in Safety Harbor, Florida forwarded the following letter. The letter was sent to the principal's office after the school had sponsored a luncheon for the elderly. This story is a credit to all human kind. Read it and forward it to all those who think could use a lift. It's a heartwarming story...

Dear Safety Harbor Middle School:
God blesses you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent senior citizen's luncheon. I am 84 years old and live at the Safety Harbor Assisted Home for the Aged.
All of my family has passed away. It's nice to know that someone really thinks of me. God blesses you for your kindness to an old, forgotten lady. My roommate is 95 and always had her own radio, but would never let me listen to it, even when she was napping. The other day her radio fell off the night stand and broke into a lot of pieces. It was awful and she was in tears. She asked if she could listen to mine, and I said fuck you.

 

PASSENGERS ON PLANE

A man and a woman are riding next to each other in first class on a plane. The woman sneezes, then takes a tissue and gently wipes it between her legs. The man isn't sure he saw what she did, and decides he is probably hallucinating.

A few minutes pass. The woman sneezes again. She takes a tissue and gently wipes it between her legs. The man is about to go nuts. He can't believe that he's seeing what he's seeing.

A few more minutes pass. The woman sneezes yet again. She takes a tissue and gently wipes it between her legs yet again. The man has finally had all he can handle. He turns to the woman and says, "Three times you've sneezed, and three times you've taken a tissue and wiped it between your legs! What kind of signals are you sending me, or are you just trying to drive me crazy?"

The woman replies, " I am sorry to have disturbed you, sir.
I have a rare condition such that when I sneeze, I have an orgasm."
The man, now feeling badly, says, "Oh, I'm sorry. What are you taking for it?"

The woman looks at him and says, "Pepper."

 

A moral question

Often, it is good practice to imagine a moral question, an imaginary situation, decide what you would do in that situation, and discuss the ramifications of the question and your actions with good friends. With your indulgence, I'd like to pose just such a hypothetical situation, and get some reactions.

The situation: You are in the Midwest, and there is a huge flood in progress. Many homes have been lost, water supplies compromised, and infrastructure destroyed. Let's say you're a photographer out getting still photos for a news service, traveling alone, looking for particularly poignant scenes.

If you were to stumble across Bill Clinton struggling to keep from being swept away in a raging river and you had a choice of rescuing him or getting a Pulitzer prize-winning photograph of the death of a President, what shutter speed would you use?

 

WARNING - BEER ADVISORY

On October 21st 1999, scientists for Health Canada suggested that men should monitor their beer consumption. This study was precipitated by a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer.

The theory implied that drinking beer turns men into women. To test the theory, scientists fed 100 men six pints of beer each. They then observed the men and their actions. Their conclusions were that 100 percent of men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing, and refused to apologize when proven wrong. No further testing is planned.

 

MONICA'S WISH

Monica Lewinsky was walking along the beach and kicked an old bottle. She said, "Hey, this looks like a genie in a bottle." So she rubbed it three times and a genie came out.

Monica asked, "Do I get three wishes?"

The genie said, "No, you have been a naughty girl so you only get one wish so make it good."

Monica thought long and hard and said, "Hmm, I wish my lovehandles would disappear."

So the genie blinked and Monicas ears fell off.

 

MORE LITTLE KNOWN FACTS

 

GOTTA GO

An American tourist in Moscow found himself needing to take a leak very badly. After a long search he just couldn't find anyplace to relieve himself. So he just went down one of the side streets to take care of business.

Before he could even get unzipped a Moscow police officer said, "Hey you, what are you doing?"

"I gotta go, man," replied the tourist.

"You can't go here. Look, follow me," the policeman offered.

The police officer led him to a beautiful garden with lots of grass, pretty flowers, and manicured hedges. "Here," said the cop, "whiz away." The American shrugs, turns, unzips, and starts right on the flowers. "Ahhh. Whew. Thanks. This is very nice of you. Is this Russian courtesy?" asked the tourist.

"No. This is the American Embassy."
