I was working out at
the gym
when I spotted a "sweet young thing" walking in...
I asked the
trainer standing next to me, "What machine should I use to impress
that young lady over there"?
The trainer looked at me and said, "I would recommend the ATM in the
lobby"!
A father told each of his 3 sons when he sent them off
to college, "I feel it's my
duty to provide you with the best possible education, and you do not
owe me anything for that. However, I want you to appreciate it. As a
token, please each put $1,000 into my coffin when I die."
And so
it happened. His sons became a doctor, a lawyer and a financial
planner, each very successful financially. When their father's time
had come, and they saw their father in the coffin, they remembered his
wish.
First, the doctor put 10 newly printed crisp $100 bills onto the chest
of the deceased.
Then,
the financial planner also put $1,000 there in 20 newly printed crisp
$50 bills.
Finally,
it was the heartbroken lawyer's turn. He reached into his pocket, took
out his checkbook, wrote a check for $3,000, put it into his father's
coffin, and took the $2,000 cash.
The
lawyer is now running for Congress in your district.
One night a blonde
nun was praying in her room when God appeared before her.
"My daughter, you have pleased me greatly. Your heart is full of
love for your fellow creatures and your actions and prayers are always
for the benefit of others. I have come to you, not only to thank and
commend you, but to grant you anything you wish," said God.
"Dear Heavenly Father, I am perfectly happy. I am doing what I
love. I lack for nothing material since the Church supports me. I am
content in all ways," said the nun.
"There must be something
you would have of me," said God.
"Well, there is one thing," she said.
"Just name it," said God.
"It's those blonde jokes. They are so demeaning to blondes
everywhere, not just to me. I would like for blonde jokes to
stop."
"Consider it done," said God. "Blonde jokes shall be
stricken from the minds of humans everywhere. But surely there is
something that I could do just for you."
"There is one thing. But it's really small, and not worth your
time," said the nun.
"Name it. Please," said God.
"It's the M&M's," said the nun. "They're so hard to
peel."
I rear-ended a car
this morning.
So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got
out of his car.
You know how sometimes you just get so stressed that little things
seem funny?
Yeah, well I couldn't believe it - he was a dwarf!
He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, 'I AM NOT
HAPPY!!!'
So, I looked down at him and said, 'Well, then which one are you?'
Meet Walter Barnes.
All
golfers should live so long as to become this kind of old man!
Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked,
"How many of you have forgiven your enemies?"
80% held up their hands. The Minister then repeated his
question. All responded this time, except one man, Walter
Barnes.
"Mr. Barnes, are you not willing to forgive your
enemies?"
"I don't have any," he replied gruffly.
"Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are
you?"
"Ninety-nine," he replied. The congregation
stood up and clapped their hands.
"Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front and
tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years and not
have an enemy in the world?"
The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the
pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply,
"I outlived all them assholes."
Then he calmly returned to his seat.
Jose and Carlos are
panhandlers that panhandle in different areas of town.
Carlos
panhandles just as long as Jose but only collects $2-3 every
day.
Jose
brings home a suitcase full of $10 bills every day, drives a
Mercedes, lives in a mortgage-free house and has a lot of money
to spend.
One
day, Carlos asked Jose, "I work just as long and hard as you
do, but how do you bring home a suitcase full of $10 bills every
day?"
"Look
at your sign, what does it say?" replies Jose.
Carlos'
sign reads, "I have no work, a wife and six kids to
support."
Jose
says, "no wonder you only get $2-3."
Carlos
says, "So what does your sign say then?"
Jose
shows Carlos his sign - it reads: "I
only need another $10 to move back to Mexico"
