Thursday, May 1, 2008 -- Kids At The Pharmacy

Two young boys walked into a pharmacy one day, picked out a box of tampons and proceeded to the checkout counter. The man at the counter asked the older boy, "Son, how old are you?"

"Eight," the boy replied.

The man continued, "Do you know what these are used for?"

The boy replied, "Not exactly, but they aren't for me. They're for him. He's my brother. He's four. We saw on TV that if you use these you would be able to swim and ride a bike. Right now, he can't do either one."

Tuesday, May 6, 2008 -- Roll Up The Rim

A little country café was having a promotion by putting little tabs on the coffee cups with a prize named under it.

A woman pulled the tab off of her coffee cup and started shouting, "I WON A MOBILE HOME, I WON A MOBILE HOME!"

A waitress came over to her and said, "Ma'am, you couldn't have won a mobile home."

The woman said, "I DID WIN A MOBILE HOME!"

Finally the owner came over to her and said, "Ma'am, you couldn't have won a mobile home because all of the prizes are food from the café." He then asked her to let him see the tab.

He looked at the tab and said, "Ma'am, it says, 'WIN A BAGEL'."

"It sounds good," said the father. "But when you find it, what kind of container will you keep it in?"

Thursday, May 8, 2008 -- In Her Defence

An 89-year old woman arrived home from bingo to find her husband in bed with another woman. In a jealous rage, she pushed him off the balcony of their apartment and sent him plunging to his death.

She was charged with murder and when her case was heard, the judge asked her whether there was anything she wished to say in her own defence.

"Well, your honour," she said calmly, "I figured that at 94, if he could make love to another woman, he could fly too!"

(Thanks to Monica)

Friday, May 9, 2008 -- A Trip To The Dentist

A young woman had a terrible toothache but was reluctant to go to the dentist because she was frightened of his drill. Eventually, however, she was in such discomfort that she decided to pluck up the courage.

"Well," said the dentist, "make up your mind before I adjust the chair."

(Thanks to Lawrence)

Monday, May 12, 2008 -- Where Did We Come From?

A little girl asked her mother, "How did the human race begin?"

The mother answered, "God made Adam and Eve and they had children and so all mankind began with His creation."

Two days later the girl asked her father the same question. The father answered, "Many years ago there were monkeys from which the human race evolved."

The confused girl returned to her mother and said, "Mom, how is it possible that you told me the human race was created by God, and Dad said they evolved from monkeys?"

The mother answered, "Well, dear, it is very simple. I told you about my side of the family and your father told you about his."

(Thanks to Roddy)

Tuesday, May 13, 2008 -- Dental Pain

A dentist was filling a cavity when he turned to the patient and said, "Would you mind doing me a favour? Could you let out a loud, piercing scream?"

Replied the dentist, "I know. But I've got a waiting room full of people and I don't want to miss the four o'clock ball game."

He replied, "I'm waiting for the first coat to dry, so I can put on another."

(Thanks to Beverly)

Thursday, May 15, 2008 -- Off Her Diet

A woman had been advised by her doctor to go on a strict diet but she couldn't discipline herself and would spend most of the day raiding the fridge. As her weight ballooned, one day she was stuck on the lavatory seat.

"Jim, Jim!" she called to her husband. "The lavatory seat's stuck to my butt. Fetch the doctor!"

The husband asked the doctor to come round as soon as he could but didn't explain what the problem was. In the meantime, the husband managed to remove the seat from the lavatory bowl but it was still wedged fast to his wife's backside. He suggested she go and kneel on the bed until the doctor arrived.

When the doctor showed up, the husband showed him straight into the bedroom where the wife was kneeling with her back to the door.

"What do you think, doc!" asked the husband.

"I think it's very nice," replied the doctor, "but why such a cheap frame?"

(Thanks to Richard)

Friday, May 16, 2008 -- Learning Golf

Two women were talking the other day over tea. "Did I tell you that my husband has taken up golf?" the first lady asked her friend.

"No, as a matter of fact, you didn't," her friend replied, "How's he doing?"

"Evidently, very well," said the first lady. "He's only played three times, but his friends tell me that he's already throwing his clubs as far as men who've been playing the game for years!"

(Thanks to Gary)

Tuesday, May 20, 2008 -- The Pilot & The Navigator

The pilot was sitting in his seat and pulled out a .38 revolver. He placed it on top of the instrument panel, and then asked the navigator, "Do you know what I use this for?"

The navigator replied timidly, "No, what's it for?"

The pilot responded, "I use this on navigators who get me lost!"

The navigator proceeded to pull out a .45 and place it on his chart table.

The pilot asked, "What's that for?"

"To be honest sir," the navigator replied, "I'll know we're lost before you will."

"Oh dear," said Joan. "I'm sorry, But, you know, there could have been a perfectly innocent explanation. Why didn't you follow them into the cinema?"

Friday, May 23, 2008 -- The Check-Up

"That's good," said the doctor. "So what's the problem?"

Replied the old man, "I think I'm going deaf."

Monday, May 26, 2008 -- The Poor Neighbours

"Mom," said the little boy, in from playing. "I think the people who live next door are really, really poor!"

"Why do you say that, my little one?"

"Because you should have seen the fuss they made when their baby swallowed a dime!"

(Thanks to Dennis)

Did you hear about the cowboy who got himself a dachshund?

Wednesday, May 28, 2008 -- Top Gun

A young guy in a single-engine fighter was flying escort for a B-52 and generally being a nuisance, acting like a hot dog, flying rolls around the lumbering old bomber.

The hot dog said over the air, "Anything you can do, I can do better."

The veteran bomber pilot answered, "Try this hot-shot." The B-52 continued its flight, straight and level.

Perplexed, the hot dog asked, "So? What did you do?"

"I just shut down an engine, kid."

(Thanks to Chuck)

Thursday, May 29, 2008 -- Shoes

Friday, May 30, 2008 -- A Great Bar

A man spent six hours in a bar before rolling home to his wife blind drunk.

"Where have you been?" she demanded.

"I've been to this amazing bar," he slurred, rocking on his feet. "It's called the Golden Saloon and everything there is golden. At the front there are two huge golden doors, the floors are golden and even the urinals are golden."

"What rubbish," snapped the wife. "I don't believe a word of it."

"Here," said the husband, rummaging in his pocket for a piece of paper. "Ring this number if you don't believe me."

So the following day she phoned the number on the slip of paper. "Is this the Golden Saloon?" she asked.

"It is," replied the bartender.

"Tell me," said the wife, "do you have two huge golden doors at the front of the building?"

"Sure do," said the bartender.

"And do you have golden floors?"

"Yup."

"What about golden urinals?"

There was a long pause and then the wife heard the bartender yell, "Hey Duke, I think I got a lead on the guy that peed in your saxophone last night!"
