A man was driving home
late one afternoon, and he was driving above the
speed limit. He notices
a police car with its red lights on in his rear view mirror. He thinks
"I can outrun this guy," so he floors it and
the race is on. The cars are racing down the highway -- 60, 70,80, 90 miles
an hour. Finally, as his speedometer passes 100, the guy figures "what
the heck," and gives up. He pulls over to
the curb. The police officer gets out of his
cruiser and approaches the car. He leansdown and says "Listen mister, I've
had a really lousy day, and I just want to go home. Give me a good
excuse and I'll let you go."
The man thought for
a moment and said... "Three weeks ago, my wife ran off
with a police officer. When I saw your cruiser in my rear view mirror,
I thought that *you* were the officer and
that you were trying to give her back to me!"

A Programmer and an
Engineer are sitting next to each other on a long flight from LA to NY.
The Programmer leans over to the Engineer and asks if he would like to
play a fun game. The Engineer just wants to
take a nap, so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch
a few winks. The Programmer persists and explains that the game is real
easy and a lotta fun. He explains "I ask you a question, and if you don't
know the answer, you pay me $5. Then you ask me a question, and if I don't
know the answer, I'll pay you $5." Again, the Engineer politely declines
and tries to get to sleep. The Programmer, now somewhat agitated, says,
"OK, if you don't know the answer you pay
me $5, and if I don't know the answer, I'll pay you $50!" This catches
the Engineer's attention, and he sees no end to this torment unless
he plays, so he agrees to the game.
The Programmer asks
the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?" The
Engineer doesn't say a word, but reaches into his wallet, pulls out a five
dollar bill and hands it to the
Programmer. Now, it's
the Engineer's turn. He asks the Programmer "What goes up a hill with three
legs, and comes down on four?" The Programmer looks up at him with a puzzled
look. He takes out his laptop computer and searches all of his references.
He taps into the Airphone with his modem and searches the net and the Library
of Congress. Frustrated, he sends e-mail to his co-workers -- all to no
avail.
After about an hour,
he wakes the Engineer and hands him $50. The Engineer politely takes the
$50 and turns away to try to get back to sleep. The Programmer, more than
a little miffed, shakes the Engineer and asks
"Well, so what's the answer?" Without a word, the Engineer reaches into
his wallet, hands the Programmer $5, and turns away to get back to sleep.

This guy is sitting
in a bar getting really drunk. The bar is on the top floor of a hotel.
After a while, he goes to the window, opens
it, and throws himself out. Shocked, two other patrons run to the window
and watch in horror as the drunk plummets toward the pavement below.
Then, miraculously,
the man is swept up an instant before hitting the sidewalk, and seems to
fly right back up and in through the open
window. Amazed, the patrons ask if he can do that again. He complies, gladly.
When he returns the
second time, they ask how he did that. "Simple," he said, slurring his
words badly. "There's an air vent down there,
and just before you hit the pavement, the gush of air lifts youright back
up. You guys should try it." Skeptical, but daring, the two race toward
the open window, plummet to earth, and are
squashed instantly like bugs on the street.
The drunk returns to
the bar and, giggling, orders another scotch. As the bartender serves the
drinks, he says to the man, "You know, Superman,
you're a real jerk when you're drunk!"
*********************************************************************************************************
This one guy was at
a theater and he was sprawled out over 3 seats. The usher came by and told
the guy to move. The guy mumbled but didn't
answer. He went and got the manager. The manager said to
the man, "Sir, if you don't move, I'll call the police to have you removed."
The guy mumbled, but didn't answer.
So the manager called
the police and a cop came over. The cop said to the man, "Hey mister. What's
your name?"
The man said,"Pete."
The cop asked,"Where
ya from, Pete?"
He said, "The balcony."

A very shy guy goes
into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar. After an
hour of gathering up his courage he finally goes over to her and asks,
tentatively, "Um, would you mind if I chatted
with you for a while?"
She responds by yelling,
at the top of her lungs, "No, I won't sleep with you tonight!" Everyone
in the bar is now staring at them.
Naturally, the guy
is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his table.
After a few minutes,
the woman walks over to him and apologizes. She smiles at him and says,
"I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. You see, I'm a graduate student in psychology
and I'm studying how people resond to
embarrassing situations."
To which he responds,
at the top of his lungs, "What do you mean $200?"

Two actors that haven't
seen each other in several weeks run in to each other on the street.
1st Actor: Haven't
seen you in a while, how's everything going?
2nd Actor: Pretty good.
Two weeks ago I got a call from a lawyer in Florida. It seems I had an
aunt that I never knew about that died and left me $2,000,000.
#1: That's great!
#2: Yeah. And then
last week I hit the lottery and won $7,000,000.
#1: That's wonderful!
#2: Yeah, but this
week, nothing!
*********************************************************************************************************A
Jew, a Christian, and a Muslim were having a discussion about who was the
most
religious.
"I was riding my camel
in the middle of the Sahara," exclaimed the Muslim. Suddenly a
fierce sandstorm appeared
from nowhere. I truly thought my end had come as I lay next to my camel
while we were being buried deeper and deeper under the sand. But I did
not lose my faith in the Almighty Allah. I prayed and prayed and suddenly,
for a hundred metres all around me, the storm had stopped. Since that day
I am a devout Muslim and am now learning to recite the Quran by memory."
"One day while fishing,"
started the Christian, " I was in my little dinghy in the middle of the
ocean. Suddenly a fierce storm appeared from nowhere. I truly thought my
end had come as my little dinghy was tossed up and down in the rough ocean.
But I did not lose my faith in Jesus Christ. I prayed and prayed and suddenly,
for 300 metres all around me, the storm had stopped. Since that day I am
a devout Christian and am now teaching young children about Him."
"One day I was walking
down the road," explained the Jew, " I was in my most expensive
designer outfit in
the middle of New York city. Suddenly I saw a black bag on the ground in
front of me appear from nowhere. I put my hand inside and found that it
was full of cash. I truly thought my end had come as it was a Saturday
and we are not allowed to handle money on the Sabbath. But I did not lose
my faith in Jehovah. I prayed and prayed and suddenly, for 500 metres all
around me, it was Tuesday... "
*********************************************************************************************************Argument
There was a guy telling
his friend that he and his wife had a serious argument the night
before. "But it ended,"
he said, "when she came crawling to me on her hands and knees."
"What did she say?"
asked the friend.
The husband replied,
"She said, 'Come out from under that bed, you coward!'"
*********************************************************************************************************A
drunk phoned police to report that thieves had been in his car.
"They've stolen
the dashboard, the steering wheel, the brake pedal, even the accelerator,"
he cried out.
However, before the
police investigation could start, the phone rang a second time and the
same voice came over the line.
"Never mind,"
he said with a hiccup, "I got in the back seat by mistake."

their money? In Snowbanks!

There was this guy
& he had just bought a brand new Farrari F-50 and he was taking it
for a cruise. He was stopped at a red light and this little boy on a mopehead
stopped next to him and was at awe over the car. He asked the guy if he
could ake a quick look inside and he agreed. Just as he was getting out
of the car the boy asked the man how fast his car could go and he said.
"oh, around 175-200. Want to see?" Of couse the boy nodded and waited for
the light to turn green. The man took off
at a very high rate of speed. As he was traveling down the road he saw
a little light catching up with him and then flew right past him. 'no!
it couldnt be the boy on the mopehead could it?" He asked to himself. Then
the light came flying back and went way behind him. The guy then ralized
that it indeed WAS the boy on the mopehead. Then the light started to catch
up with him again. He slowed down a bit to catch up with the boy to find
out exactly how he got the little bike to go that fast and in a stunned
voice the boy looked at the man and said.."Would you mind taking my suspenders
off your rear view mirror?"

"Questions"
A father and son
went fishing one day. While they were out in the boat, the boy suddenly
became curious about the world around him. He asked his father, "How does
this boat float?
The father replied,
"Don't rightly know son."
A little later, the
boy looked at his father and asked, How do fish breath underwater?"
Once again the father
replied, "Don't rightly know son."
A little later the
boy asked his father, "Why is the sky blue?"
Again, the father replied.
"Don't rightly know son."
Finally, the boy asked
his father, "Dad, do you mind my asking you all of these questions?"
The father replied,
"Of course not, you don't ask questions, you never learn nothin'."
*********************************************************************************************************
A boy was taking care
of his baby sister while his parents went to town shopping. He decided
to go fishing so he took her with him.
"I'll never do that
again!" he told his mother that evening. "I didn't catch a thing!"
"Oh, next time I'm
sure she'll be quiet and not scare the fish away," his mother said.
The boy said, "It wasn't
that. She ate all the bait."
