Don't Mess with Seniors

We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the 'seniors' special' was two eggs, bacon, hash browns & toast for $1.99. 'Sounds good,' my wife said. 'But I don't want the eggs.'

'Then, I'll have to charge you two dollars & forty-nine cents because you're ordering a la carte,' the waitress warned her.

'You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?' my wife asked incredulously.

'YES!!' stated the waitress.

'I'll take the special then.' my wife said.

'How do you want your eggs?' the waitress asked.

'Raw and in the shell,' my wife replied. She took the two eggs home.

Two Trapped As Car Lodges In House Roof


The Holden Commodore became airborne after striking a concrete median strip. (AAP: Jason Donnelly)



Two men have been rescued after their car hit a dirt mound and became lodged in the roof of a Sydney home in which a couple and baby were sleeping.

The vehicle became airborne after striking a concrete median strip while travelling north along Sunnyholt Road in Parklea about 2:00am (AEDT) on Sunday, police said.

"The car continued on and knocked over a set of traffic control lights and a light pole before hitting a dirt mound," a police statement said.

"The vehicle then became airborne and landed on the roof of a home in Guernsey Way."

Two men - aged 24 and 21 - were trapped in the vehicle for a short time before being rescued by emergency workers.

They were taken to Westmead Hospital in a stable condition, police said.

Two adults and a three-month-old baby were asleep in the home at the time but were not injured.

"The vehicle was extracted from the roof using a crane and seized for forensic examination," police said.

Since I'm about to get on one....

Here are some jokes about taking the bus.

--

A man trying to get on an overcrowded bus was pushed off by the people inside. There's no room,' they said. 'It's full up!' 'But you must let me on!' shouted the man. 'Why, what's so special about you?' they asked. I'm the driver,' replied the man.

Teacher: Tommy Russell, you're late again. Tommy: Sorry, sir. It's my bus - it's always coming late. Teacher: Well, if it's late again tomorrow, catch an earlier one.

Do buses and trains run on time? No, they don't. Buses run on wheels and trains run on the tracks.

When you go for a bus ride, do you like sitting upstairs or downstairs? I prefer to ride on top, but it's very hard getting the horse up the stairs.

A man standing at a bus stop was eating a hamburger. Next to him stood a lady with her little dog, which became very excited at the smell of the man's supper and began whining and jumping up at him. "Do you mind if I throw him a bit?" said the man to the lady. "Not at all," she replied, whereupon the man picked the dog up and threw it over a wall.

As the bus came to the stop, the man at the front of the queue took out his eye, threw it up in the air and caught it before getting on the bus. An amazed conductor said, 'What on earth did you do that for?' 'I wanted to know if there was room on top,' replied the man.

'Is everyone in the bus?' asked the driver before he closed the door. 'No,' called a lady, 'wait until I get my clothes on.' All the passengers in the bus turned towards the door to look at the woman. She got on with a bag full of laundry.

MARRIAGE

The local news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady because she had just gotten married for the fourth time. The interviewer asked her questions about her life, about what it felt like to be marrying again at 80, and then about her new husband's occupation.

"He's a funeral director," she answered.

"Interesting," the newsman replied. "Tell me a little about your first three husbands and what they did for a living."

She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect on all those years. After a short time, a smile came to her face and she answered proudly, "I first married a banker when I was in my early 20's, then a circus ringmaster when in my 40's, and a preacher when in my 60's, and now in my 80's, a funeral director."

The interviewer looked at her, quite astonished, and asked, "Why have you married four men with such diverse careers?"

She smiled and explained, "I married one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go."

One Sunday morning, a priest decided to do something a little different. He said "Today, in church, I am going to say a single word and you are going to help me preach. Whatever single word I say, I want you to sing whatever hymn that comes to your mind." The pastor shouted out, "CROSS."

Immediately the congregation started singing in unison, "THE OLD RUGGED CROSS."

The pastor hollered out, "GRACE."

The congregation began to sing, "AMAZING GRACE, how sweet the sound."

The pastor said, "POWER."

The congregation sang, "THERE IS POWER IN THE BLOOD."

The Pastor said, "SEX."

The congregation fell into total silence.

Everyone was in shock. They all nervously began to look around at each other afraid to say anything.

Then all of a sudden, way from in the back of the church, a little old 87 year old grandmother stood up and began to sing, "MEMORIES."

Marriage changes passion. Suddenly you're in bed with a relative.

I saw a woman wearing a sweat shirt with 'Guess' on it So I said 'Implants?' She hit me.

How come we choose from just two people to run for President and over 50 for Miss Universe ?

Now that food has replaced sex in my life, I can't even get into my own pants.

I signed up for an exercise class and was told to wear loose fitting clothing. If I HAD any loose fitting clothing, I wouldn't have signed up in the first place!

When I was young we used to go 'skinny dipping,' now I just 'chunky dunk.'

Never argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

Wouldn't it be nice if whenever we messed up our life we could simply press 'Ctrl Alt Delete' and start all over? AMEN, AMEN !!

Why is it that our children can't read a Bible in school, but they can in prison?

Ole the Wrestler

A Russian and Ole the Norwegian wrestler were set to square off for the Olympic Gold Medal. Before the final match, the Norwegian wrestling coach came to Ole and said, "Now, don't forget all the research we've done on this Russian. He's never lost a match because of this 'pretzel' hold he has". Whatever you do, do not let him get you in that hold! If he does, you're finished'. Ole nodded in acknowledgment.

As the match started, Ole and the Russian circled each other several times, looking for an opening. All of a sudden, the Russian lunged forward, grabbing Ole and wrapping him up in the dreaded pretzel hold. A sigh of disappointment arose from the crowd and the coach buried his face in his hands, for he knew all was lost. He couldn't watch the inevitable happen.

Suddenly, there was a scream, then a cheer from the crowd and the coach raised his eyes just in time to watch the Russian go flying up in the air. His back hit the mat with a thud and Ole collapsed on top of him making the pin and winning the match. The crowd went crazy. The coach was astounded.

When he finally got his wrestler alone, he asked, "How did you ever get out of that hold? No one has ever done it before!"

Ole answered, "Vell, I vas ready to give up ven he got me in dat hold, but at da last moment, I opened my eyes and saw dis pair of testicles right in front of my face...I had nuttin' to lose so wid my last ounce of strength I stretched out my neck and bit dose babies just as hard as I could."

So the trainer exclaimed, "That's what finished him off!"

"Vel not really. You'd be amazed how strong you get ven you bite your own nuts!"

No more was said, not even when they went to bed.
Around 2 AM the husband got up, went to the kitchen and returned with a sandwich and a beer. "Here," he said to the statue, have this. I stood like that for two days at the Smith's house and nobody offered me a damned thing."

Dolphins Attack!

Lawsuit abuse is getting out of hand! A Chicago woman has taken lawsuit abuse to a whole new level by suing the Brookfield Zoo for reckless Dolphins.

"Allecyn Edwards sued the Chicago Zoological Society and the zoo because she claims they "recklessly and willfully trained and encouraged the dolphins to throw water at the spectators in the stands making the floor wet and slippery.""

Ollie the Pug

I'm not quite sure what shenanigans Ollie the Pug gets up to when we're at work. But the evidence points to a doggy equivalent of a Roman orgy.

By the time we leave for work in the morning, Ollie will have been walked, watered and fed. He'll seem relatively placid. He will either (1) lie down on a plaid quilt on the couch, or (2) sit obediently on the window seat and solemnly regard us as we walk down the garden path.

But sometimes, when we return, the house is in disarray. Ollie will have upended his cot, the one decorated with cute Dalmatian paw prints. His water dish will have been flung on its side, his chew toys scattered askew, the venetian blinds yanked into disarray.

[snip]

Why do pets indulge in such bad craziness? It reminds me of a TV clip I once saw, provided by the owners of a wayward Lab. This dog was carefully trained not to prance about on living room couches and chairs. But its owners had a funny feeling their pet was, in their absence, breaking the all rules.

So they installed a video camera.

Just before Rover (I'll call him "Rover" to spare him public embarrassment) was left at home for the day, the dog would sit perfectly still in the middle of the living room. Nano-seconds after the door closed, he'd dash over to the window, tail wagging like a metronome. And then Rover would commence jumping on the couches and chairs like a maniac. He'd roll about, legs in the air, achieving some rarefied level of doggy nirvana.

The weirdest part is that Rover did not disrupt the arrangement of cushions on the couches and chairs.

When the front door opened upon the owners' return, Rover snapped out of his reverie, like a man roused from a three-day bender. He perched once again in the middle of the living room, unaware he'd been caught red-handed, thanks to the wonders of modern technology (not to mention the mildly disturbing paranoia of his owners).

The Ad Game with Jesus and His Disciples

This is an improv game that was created by Del Close, who trained such comic geniuses as Steve Martin, Bill Murray, John Belushi, Martin Short, George Wendt and many others. The game is used to teach the improvisers that agreement is more funny than disagreement on stage. The Ad Game is played with six or eight actors, and the group is given five minutes to create an ad campaign for an ordinary product with an unusual quality. For example, cereal that plays music when milk is poured on it. The group must come up with a name for the product, a package design, a slogan, a spokesperson, and a jingle to create an entire marketing strategy and finished commercial. Naturally, the only way to do this in five minutes is through complete and total agreement. Every idea is accepted enthusiastically and remembered, each step is built off the previous idea. Over-acceptance of ideas is encouraged.

This is an example of an Ad Game played by some improvisers. The scene takes place between Jesus and his disciples in a brainstorming session for ideas to enhance the number of Jesus' followers.

They immediately agree that rumors of a couple of miracles would be helpful, and agree to say that his mother was a virgin (although some resist this idea, thinking it too unbelievable).

Judas has an idea for a jingle. He sings, "Silent Night, Holy Night/We're gonna rock around the clock tonight."

All the other disciples laugh and chide him for his musical ideas, especially his earlier suggestion for a musical play called "Godspell." He becomes angry and storms out. Trying in vain to get Judas to return, Jesus calls out to him, "Come on, Judas, turn the other cheek!"

Peter seizes this opportunity to use Jesus' statement as their new slogan. "After all," he says, "It's so much easier to understand than 'It is easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get to heaven."

All the disciples agree.

Now a spokesperson is needed. Simon shouts, "John the Baptist!"

"Yes," all agree. "There's a man with a head on his shoulders." (The audience groans here set off the Joke Alarm, warning the players not to get too "jokey.")

In heavy thought, Jesus paces back and forth across the room. He says, "We still need something else. Something big that will sell the crowd."

Meanwhile, the waitress begins removing the dinner dishes from the table. Noticing that Jesus' plate is still full, she asks, "Is he finished, or is he coming back?"

In unison, the disciples scream with delight, "HE'S COMING BACK!"

Using the Ad Game, the players rewrote biblical history.

Dark humor at its finest.

True, this isn't necessarily MEANT to be funny, but a simulation about being a virus that spreads across the world has to draw a shocked chuckle or two.

"Bubba, take whatever you want."

New Office Protocol From Management


These guidelines are in effect immediately:

SICK DAYS:
We will no longer accept a doctor statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.

SURGERY:
Operations are now banned. As long as you are an employee here, you need all your organs. You should not consider removing anything. We hired you intact. To have something removed constitutes a breach of employment.

PERSONAL DAYS:
Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called Saturday and Sunday.

VACATION DAYS:
All employees will take their vacation at the same time every year. The vacation days are as follows: Jan. 1, July 4 & Dec. 25

BEREAVEMENT LEAVE:

This is no excuse for missing work. There is nothing you can do for dead friends, relatives or coworkers. Every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early, provided your share of the work is done enough.

OUT FROM YOUR OWN DEATH:

This will be accepted as an excuse. However, we require at least two weeks notice, as it is your duty to train your own replacement.

RESTROOM USE:
Entirely too much time is being spent in the restroom. In the future, we will follow the practice of going in alphabetical order. For instance, all employees whose names begin with 'A' will go from 8:00 to 8:20, employees whose names begin with 'B' will go from 8:20 to 8:40 and so on. If you're unable to go at your allotted time, it will be necessary to wait until the next day when your turn comes again. In extreme emergencies employees may swap their time with a coworker. Both employees' supervisors in writing must approve this exchange. In addition, there is now a strict 3-minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, and the stall door will open.

LUNCH BREAK:
Skinny people get an hour for lunch as they need to eat more so that they can look healthy, normal size people get 30 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain the average figure. Fat people get 5 minutes for lunch because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim Fast and take a diet pill. Sondra gets none.

DRESS CODE:
It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary, if we see you wearing $350 Prada sneakers and carrying a $600 Gucci bag we assume you are doing well financially and therefore you do not need a raise.

Thank you for your loyalty to our company. We are here to provide a positive employment experience. Therefore, all questions comments, concerns, complaints, frustrations, irritations, aggravations, insinuations, allegations, accusations, contemplations, consternations or input should be directed elsewhere. Have a nice week.
