TUESDAY OCTOBER 9,2007
My husband and I took our two-year-old daughter
to the home-improvement
store. Madison got tired of walking, so my husband let her ride on his shoulders. As he walked, Madison began pulling his hair. Although he asked her to stop several times, she kept on. Getting annoyed, "But, Daddy," she replied, "I'm just trying to get my gum
back."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mrs. Jamison kept her sense of humor while she was in the hospital for a very serious condition. She could only be fed intravenously, which isn't very pleasant at all. She asked the Nurse if she could have a couple of extra bottles this one day. The Nurse asked her Whatever for?" She kinda giggled and said, "I'm having people over for lunch." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lena called the airlines information desk and inquired, "How long does it take to fly from Minneapolis to Fargo?" "Just a minute," said the busy clerk. "Vell, said Lena, "if it has to go dat fast, I tink I'll just take da bus." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ole and Lena got married. On their honeymoon trip they were nearing Minneapolis when Ole put his hand on Lena's knee. Giggling, Lena said, "Ole, you can go a little farther now if ya vant to." So Ole drove to Duluth. ~~~~~~ Monica's daughter's friend was having a baby. The whole family was invited to the baby shower. Her 6-year-old nephew asked if there was a baby in her tummy. She said yes. Then he asked, "Want me to help you get it out?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Four-year-old Natalie was in the garage with her daddy when she suddenly piped up with: "Why is there Red Sox all over this house?" Her daddy explained he loves the Boston Red Sox baseball team. She looked to his feet and said, "If you like Red Sox, why are you wearing white socks?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NASA was interviewing professionals to be sent to Mars. Only one could go, and he couldn't return to Earth. The first applicant, an engineer, was asked how much he wanted to be paid for going. "A million dollars," he answered, "because I want to donate it to M.I.T." The next applicant, a doctor, was asked the same question. He asked for two million dollars. "I want to give a million to my family", he explained, "and leave the other million for the advancement of medical research." The last applicant was a lawyer. When asked how much money he wanted, he whispered in the interviewer's ear, "Three million dollars." "Why so much more than the others?" the interviewer asked. The lawyer replied, "If you give me $3 million, I'll give you $1 million, I'll keep $1 million, and we'll send the engineer." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ole is so cheap that after his airplane landed safely he grumbled, "Vell, dere gose five dollars down da drain for dat flight insurance!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ QUESTIONS ABOUT THE WAR 1. What is the Iraqi air force motto? I came, I saw, Iran. 2. Have you heard about the new Iraqi air force exercise program? Each morning you raise your hands above your head and leave them there. 3. What's the five-day forecast for Baghdad? Two days. 4. What do Miss Muffet and Saddam Hussein have in common? They both have Kurds in their way. 5. What is the best Iraqi job? Foreign ambassador. 6. Did you hear that it is twice as easy to train Iraqi fighter pilots? You only have to teach them to take off. 7. How do you play Iraqi bingo? B-52 ... F-16 ... 8. What is Iraq's national bird? Duck. 9. What do Saddam Hussein and General Custer have in common? They both want to know where those Tomahawks are coming from! 10. Why does the Iraqi navy have glass bottom boats? So they can see their air force. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On a recent vacation at a resort with my in-laws, we planned to spend an afternoon at the pool with our kids. We wanted to bring our own drinks, but were unsure of the hotel's policy. My brother-in-law called the front desk, and assuming everyone was familiar with the brand of ice chest he had, asked if it was all right if he brought a Playmate to the pool. After a pause, the clerk asked, "Does she have her own towel?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mike: Do you remember first meeting your wife? John: Sure, I found Jill lying face down in the gutter. I lifted her to her feet and promised her that if she agreed to marry me, she would begin a new life and I'd never allow her near the gutter again. Mike: Wow, I hope she appreciates what you did for her. John: Not really. Jill hated to give up bowling ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The pastor was known for the clarity and brevity of his sermons. His talks were well organized and always ended promptly at 20 minutes. One Sunday, he seemed to wander and drift around a bit and was still preaching to the congregation after 35 minutes. His wife managed a small signal, which fortunately he recognized as a sign he should come to a close. When they got home after the service, the wife asked the pastor why he got so muddled and why he went on speaking so long. He answered, "Well, I've gotten into the habit of tucking a lozenge in my mouth before I stand to speak. When the lozenge has dissolved, I know it is time to stop. This morning, unfortunately I picked up a collar button instead of a lozenge." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ While practicing autorotations during a military night training exercise a Huey Cobra screwed up the landing and landed on the tail rotor. The landing was so hard that it broke off the tail boom. However, the chopper fortunately remained upright on its skids, sliding down the runway doing 360s. As the Cobra slid past the tower, trailing a brilliant shower of sparks, this was the radio exchange that took place: Tower: "Sir, do you need any assistance?" Cobra: "I don't know Tower, we ain't done crashin' yet." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bert took his Saint Bernard to the vet. "Doctor," he said sadly, "I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to cut off my dog's tail." The vet stepped back, "Bert, why should I do such a terrible thing?" "Because my mother-in-law's arriving tomorrow, and I don't want anything to make her think she's welcome."

Know:
Which medium do kids ages 8-17 favor
most?
Internet: Boys - 38% Girls - 28% TV: Boys - 34% Girls - 17% Phone: Boys - 12% Girls - 31% Radio: Boys - 12% Girls - 17% The peanut: Is it a pea or a nut? The peanut is a legume. It bears fruit in the form of pods that contain one or more seeds. The peanut is more closely related to peas than to nuts. Georgia produces more peanuts than any other U.S. state- -about 40% of the nation's annual crop. However, Asia and Africa produce about 90% of the world's peanuts. Top growers include China, India, Indonesia, and Nigeria. Peanut butter is nutritious, although quite high in calories. Nuts and peanuts are packed with fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Their monounsaturated fat fights heart disease. Industry sources say 60% of consumers prefer creamy over crunchy. Women and kids opt for creamy; men go for the crunchy stuff. The original Uncle Ben was a black
rice farmer known to rice
millers in and around Houston in the 1940s for consistently delivering the highest quality rice for milling. Uncle Ben harvested his rice with such care that he purportedly received several honors for full-kernel yields and quality. Legend holds that other rice growers proudly claimed their rice was "as good as Uncle Ben's." Unfortunately, further details of Uncle Ben's life (including his last name) were lost to history. Golf was invented in Scotland on October 3, 1100 at 11:15 AM. The very first golf joke was created at 1:30 PM the same day. A cicada can chirp so loud you can hear it from half a mile away. In 1457, King James II of Scotland banned golf because its popularity threatened the practice of archery for national defense. And even today, husbands still suffer the slings and arrows of wives who don't quite get the essence of golf. Early in his career, William
F. Buckley, Jr. was employed as a Spanish teacher at Yale. The cat was the symbol of liberty in ancient Rome. If a person is "aerophobic," they have an irrational fear of drafts. It takes 100,000 years for a red giant to change into a white dwarf. By astronomical standards, this is practically instantaneous, a mere one-thousandth of the star's life. The Colosseum received its name not for its size, but for a colossal statue of Nero that stood close by, placed there after the destruction of his palace. ![]() &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& You can join The Funnies IT'S FREE To subscribe, Click on link below 25438-subscribe@zinester.com &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& **** Reader's Submissions
