Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office? And third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?" Just then the bell rings for recess. Hillary Clinton informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess. When they resume Hillary says, "Okay where were we? Oh, that's right, question time.

A squad car driver was covering a quiet beat out in the sticks when he was amazed to find a former lieutenant on the police force covering the beat. He stopped the car and asked, "Why, Sam, this wouldn't be your new beat out here in the sticks, would it?"
"That it is, "Sam replied grimly, "ever since I arrested the judge on his way to the masquerade ball." "You mean you pinched his Honor?" he asked. "How was I to know that his convict suit was only a costume?" demanded Sam. "Well," the squad driver mused, "there's a lesson in this somewhere." "There sure is," replied Irish Sam. "It's wise never to book a judge by his cover." (Thanks to Keith)

Monday, February 9, 2004 -- Everybody Wants Their Pound of Flesh!
A lawyer defending a man convicted of burglary tried this creative appeal: "My client merely inserted his arm into the window and removed a few trifling articles. His arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense committed by his limb."
"Well put," the judge replied. "Using your logic, I sentence the defendant's arm to one year's imprisonment. He can accompany it or not, as he chooses." The gavel hit the bench with a thud. The defendant smiled. With his lawyer's assistance, he detached his artificial limb, laid it on the table, and walked out.
Tuesday, February 10, 2004 -- Farmer Brown & The Rooster
Farmer Brown goes out one day and buys a brand new stud rooster for his chicken coop. The cocky young rooster walks over to the old rooster and says, "Ok, old fella, time to retire."
The old rooster says, "You can't handle all these chickens. Look at what it did to me!" The young rooster replies, "Now, don't give me a hassle about this old man. It's time for the old to step aside and the young to take over -- so take a hike!" The old rooster says, "Aw, c'mon, just let me have those two old hens over there in the corner. I won't bother you." The young rooster snarls, "Scram! Beat it! You're washed up! I'm taking over!" The old rooster thinks for a minute and then says to the young rooster, "I'll tell you what, young fellow, I'll have a race around the farmhouse with you. Whoever wins the race gets full domain over the chicken coop." The young rooster smiles, "You know I'm going to beat you, old man. So just to be fair, I'm even going to give you a head start." The two roosters line up in back of the farm house. A hen clucks "Go!" and the old rooster takes off running. About 5 seconds later the young rooster takes off after him. They round the front of the farm house and the young rooster is only inches behind the old rooster and gaining fast. Farmer Brown, sitting on the porch, hearing the commotion, looks up and sees what's going on. Quickly, he grabs his shotgun and BOOM! The young rooster is blown to smithereens! Farmer Brown sadly shakes his head in disgust: "Damnit! That makes the third gay rooster I bought this week."
Wednesday, February 11, 2004 -- The Mute Golfer
A man was about to tee off on the golf course when he felt a tap on his shoulder and a man handed him a card that read "I am a deaf mute. May I play through, please?"
The first man angrily gave the card back, and communicated that "No, he may NOT play through, and that his handicap did not give him such a right." He then teed up his ball, and with a mighty swing of his pitching wedge lobbed the ball right on the green for a par 3. Just as he was about to put the ball into the hole he was hit in the head with a golf ball, laying him out cold. When he came to a few minutes later, he looked around and saw the deaf mute sternly looking at him, one hand on his hip, the other hand holding up 4 fingers.

Friday, February 13, 2004 -- The Brown Paper Cowboy
A cowboy walked into a bar and ordered a beer. The barman said, "Hey pardner, your hat's made of brown wrapping paper."
"Yep," said the cowboy, "and so's my shirt, my vest, my chaps, my pants, and even my boots and spurs. Truth be told, even the saddle, blanket and bridle on my horse is made of brown paper. Guess that's why folks call me The Brown Paper Cowboy." A few weeks later, another cowboy comes in the bar, the barman says, "We had The Brown Paper Cowboy in here a few weeks back - ever hear of him?" "Yep," says the second cowboy, "I hear he was hanged down in Texas the other week." "What for?" said the barman. "Why for rustling, of course."

Two old former baseball pros were sitting on the front porch talking one day. They both were in their 80's, and both had successful careers in the Major Leagues back in their day.
They were wondering about whether or not there was baseball in heaven, so they made a pact that whoever died first would come back from the spirit world and tell the other if indeed there was baseball in heaven. Sure enough one of the old men passed away the very next morning. That night, as promised, his spirit returned to the home of his friend. Surprised and excited, his friend asked, "So tell me, is there baseball in heaven?" The spirit answered, "Well I've got good news and bad news. The good news is there IS baseball in heaven, and it's like nothing you've ever seen before. The weather is always sunny and perfect, the fields are beautiful and green, the umps never make a bad call, and all the old greats are there" "That's great!", said the other guy, "but what's the bad news?" The spirit replied, "The bad news is you're pitching tomorrow!"

A man calls in to work and tells his boss, "I can't come in today, I'm really sick. I've got a headache, a stomach ache and my legs hurt. I've gotta stay home."
The boss says, "You know, I really need you today. When I feel like that I go to my wife and make love to her. That makes everything better and I can go to work. Try it!" Two hours later the man calls his boss again: "I did what you said and I feel great. I'll be at work soon. And let me say, you've got such a nice house!" (Thanks to Douglas)

Friday, February 20, 2004 -- This Could Cause New Visions
A preacher was completing a temperance sermon: with great expression he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river!"
The congregation nodded their approval. With even greater emphasis he added, "And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river, too!" The people clapped and were saying "Amen." And then finally, he concluded, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river!" As he sat down, the song leader then stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, "For our closing song, let us sing Hymn #365: 'Shall We Gather at the River.'"
Monday, February 23, 2004 -- The Jogger
A woman was having an affair while her husband was at work. One wet and lusty day while her boyfriend was over, to her horror she heard her husband's car pull up in the driveway.
" Oh my gosh - Hurray! grab your clothes and jump out the window. My husband's home early!" " I can't jump out the window - it's raining out there!" "My husband is a big man and he has a gun, he'll shoot both of us." So the boyfriend scoots out of bed, grabs his clothes and jumps out the window. As he runs down the street in the rain, he quickly discovers that he has run right into the middle of the town's marathon. So he starts running along side of the other runners, about 300 of them. Being naked, with his clothes tucked under his arms, he tries to blend in as best he can. After a little while a group of the runners who had been watching him with some curiosity, jogged a little closer. "Do you always run in the nude?" one asked. "Oh yes," he replied, gasping for air. "It feels so wonderfully free!" Another one of the runners moved alongside. " Do you always run carrying your clothes with you under your arm?" "Oh, yes" our friend answered breathlessly. "That way I can get dressed right at the end of the run, get into my car and drive home!" Then a third runner cast his eyes a little lower and asked, "DO you always wear a condom when you run?" " Nope...just when it's raining!" (Thanks to Patricia)

Realizing she had forgotten to title the assignment; she reaches to the very top of the chalkboard. Suddenly there is an even louder giggle from another male student. She quickly turns and asks,"What's so funny Billy?" "Well miss, I just saw both of your garters." Again she yells, "Get out of my classroom!" This time the punishment is more severe, "I don't want to see you for three weeks." Embarrassed and frustrated, she drops the eraser when she turns around again. So she bends over to pick it up.

"Well teacher, from what I just saw, my school days are over."

"How do you feel about sex?" he asks. "Well," she says, responding very carefully, "I'd have to say I'd like it infrequently." The old guy sits quietly for a moment. Then he peers over his glasses, looks her in the eye and asks, "Infrequently, was that one or two words?" (Thanks to Rebecca)
Thursday, February 26, 2004 -- The Contractors
Three contractors were visiting a tourist attraction on the same day. One was from New York, another from Texas, and the third from Florida.
At the end of the tour, the guard asked them what they did for a living. When they all replied that they were contractors, the guard said, "Hey, we need one of the rear fences redone. Why don't you guys take a look at it and give me a bid?" So, to the back fence they all went to check it out. First to step up was the Florida contractor. He took out his tape measure and pencil, did some measuring and said, "Well I figure the job will run about $900. $400 for materials, $400 for my crew, and $100 profit for me." Next was the Texas contractor. He also took out his tape measure and pencil, did some quick figuring and said, "Looks like I can do this job for $700. $300 for materials, $300 for my crew, and $100 profit for me." Without so much as moving, the New York contractor said, "$2,700." The guard, incredulous, looked at him and said, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?" "Easy," he said. "$1,000 for me, $1,000 for you and we hire the guy from Texas."
