Titanic Story...
A man was on the Titanic. He went to the bar and said to the barman, "Can I have a pint of lager please?"
The barman looked at him with amazement
and said" Sir , don't you realize that the ship is sinking!"
The man
then said "Look, I paid £1000 for my passage to America, I am a first
class passenger and when I ask for a pint of lager I expect one right away,
I'm going for a pee and when I get back I expect my drink to be on the
bar"
When he got back to the bar there were two pints of lager
there waiting for him, he then asked "Why are there two pints on the
bar, I only ordered one?"
The barman said, " It's Happy Hour"
Float
How do you make a golf ball float? Take two scoops of ice cream, add
root beer, then drop in the golf ball.
Wes..not West.. When I introduced my friend Wes to the proprietor of my favorite Chinese
restaurant, the owner greeted him enthusiastically, saying,
"Welcome,
West."
Wes shook his hand and smiled despite the mispronounced
name.
All through the meal, the proprietor checked to make sure "West"
was pleased. Finally, Wes corrected him, "It's Wes, not
West."
"West, not West?" asked the confused man.
Wes smiled
patiently and nodded. "Yes," he said, "Wes, no 't'."
"Ah..." said
the proprietor ... as he walked away with our teapot.
Womans Tee...
It was a sunny Saturday morning on the course and he was beginning his
pre-shot routine, visualizing his upcoming shot, when a voice came over
the clubhouse loudspeaker:
"Would the gentleman on the woman's tee
please back up to the men's tee!!"
Our man was still deep in his
routine, seemingly impervious to the interruption. Again the
announcement:
"Would the MAN on the WOMEN'S tee kindly back up to the
men's tee."
Our golfer simply ignored the guy and kept concentrating,
when once more the man yelled:
"Would the man on the woman's tee
back up to the men's tee, PLEASE!"
Finally our focused golfer stopped. He
turned, looked through the clubhouse window directly at the person with
the mike and shouted back, "Would the person in the clubhouse kindly
shut the up and let me play my second stroke for this hole?"
Marriage...
After nearly 45 years of marriage,
a couple was lying in bed one evening, when the wife felt her husband, begin to
massage her in ways he hadn't in quite some time.
It almost tickled as
his fingers started at her neck, and then began moving down past the small of
her back. He then caressed her shoulders and neck, slowly worked his hand down,
stopping just over her stomach.
He then proceeded to place his hand on
her left inner arm, working down her side, passing gently over her buttock and
down her leg to her calf.
Then, he proceeded up her thigh, stopping just
at the uppermost portion of her leg. He continued in the same manner on her
right side, then suddenly stopped, rolled over and became silent.
As she
had become quite aroused by this caressing, she asked in a loving voice, 'Honey,
that was wonderful. Why did you stop?'
To which he responded:
'I
found the remote.'
Don't Fool with Minnesotans!
After having dug to a depth of 10 meters last year, New York scientists found traces of a copper wire dating back 100 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago.
Not to be outdone by New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed, California scientists dug to a depth of 20 meters, and shortly after, headlines in the California newspaper read: "California archaeologists have found traces of 200 year old coper wire and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced hgh-tech communications network a hundred years earlier than the New Yorkers."
One week later, "The Aitkin Age", a local newspaper in Aitkin, Minnesota, reported the following: "After digging as deep as 30 meters in peat fields just north of Palisade, Minnesota, Ole Johnson, a self taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing (he had help digging from his buddy Sven). Ole has there fore concluded that 300 years ago, Minnesota had already gone wireddless."
