Insurance Fee

From My InBox:


A man and his wife moved back home to Cork , from London.

The wife had a wooden leg and to insure it in Britain was £2000.00 a year!

When they arrived in Cork , they went to an Insurance agency to see how much it would cost to insure the wooden leg.

The agent looked it up on the computer and said to the couple, '€39.00.'

The husband was shocked and asked why it was so cheap here in Ireland to insure, because it cost him £2000.00 in England!

The agent turned his computer screen to the couple and said, 'Well, here it is on the screen, it says:

"Any wooden structure, with a sprinkler system over it, is €39.00."

Oz army


From My InBox:
 
   ----- Life in the Australian  Army... Text of a letter from a kid from Eromanga to Mum and Dad. (For Those of you not in the know, Eromanga is a small town, west of Quilpie in the far south west  of  Queensland )  

Dear Mum &  Dad,
I am well. Hope youse are too. Tell me big brothers Doug and Phil that the Army is better than workin' on the farm - tell them to get in bloody quick smart before the jobs are all gone! I wuz a bit slow in settling down at first, because ya don't hafta get outta bed until 6am. But I like sleeping in now, cuz all ya gotta do before brekky is make ya bed and shine ya boots and clean ya uniform. 

No bloody cows to milk, no calves to feed, no feed to  stack - nothin'!! Ya haz  gotta shower though, but its not so bad, coz there's lotsa hot water and even a light to see what ya doing!  

At brekky ya get cereal, fruit and eggs but there's no kangaroo steaks or possum stew like wot Mum makes. You don't get fed again until noon and by that time all the city boys are buggered because we've been on a 'route march' - geez it's only just like walking to the windmill in the back paddock!!

This one will kill me brothers Doug and Phil with laughter. I keep getting medals for shootin' - dunno why. The bullseye is as big as a bloody possum's bum and it don't move and it's not firing back at ya like the Johnsons did when our big scrubber bull got into their prize cows before the Ekka last year! All ya gotta do is make yourself comfortable and hit the target - it's a piece of piss!!  You don't even load your own cartridges, they comes in little boxes, and ya don't have to steady yourself against the rollbar of the roo shooting truck when you reload!

Sometimes ya  gotta wrestle with the city boys and I gotta be  real careful coz they break easy -  it's not  like fighting with Doug and Phil and Jack and  Boori and Steve  and Muzza all at once like we do at home after the muster.
Turns out I'm not a bad boxer either and it looks like I'm the best the platoon's got, and I've only been beaten by this one bloke from the Engineers - he's 6 foot 5 and 15 stone and three pick handles across the shoulders and as ya know I'm only 5 foot 7 and eight stone wringin' wet, but I fought him till the other blokes carried me off to the boozer.

I can't complain about the Army - tell the boys to get in quick before  word gets around how bloody good it is.

Your loving daughter,

Sheila

The can of worms

A  minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon.

Four worms were placed into four separate jars.
The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.
The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke.
The third worm was put into a container of chocolate  syrup.
The fourth worm was put into a container of good clean soil. 

At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the following results:

The first worm in alcohol . . .
. . ..  Dead.
The  second worm in cigarette smoke . . Dead!


 

Third  worm in chocolate syrup . . . Dead!.

Fourth  worm in good clean soil . .  Alive! 
So  the Minister asked the congregation,
"So, my friends? What  did you learn from this demonstration?"

 

Maxine, sitting in the back, quickly raised her hand and said . . .

"As  long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you  won't have worms!"
That pretty much ended the service
!


Today  is International Disturbed People's Day.

Please send an encouraging message to a disturbed friend...
Just  as I've done.
"Hang  in there sunshine, you're special!"

The ultimate golf game

From My InBox:
The Pope met with his Cardinals to discuss a proposal from Benjamin Netanyahu, the leader of Israel.

"Your Holiness," said one of his Cardinals, "Mr. Netanyahu wants to challenge you to a game of golf, to show the friendship and ecumenical spirit shared by the Jewish and Catholic faiths."

The Pope thought this was a good idea; but, he had never held a golf club in his hand. "Don't we have a Cardinal to represent me?" he asked.

"None that plays very well," a Cardinal replied, "but there is a man named Jack Nicklaus, an American golfer, who is a devout Catholic. We can first make him a Cardinal, Then we will ask him to play Mr. Netanyahu as your personal representative. In addition, to showing our spirit of cooperation, we'll also win the match."

Everyone agreed it was a good idea.

Of course, Nicklaus was honored, and agreed to play.

The day after the match, Nicklaus reported to the Vatican " I have some good news and some bad news, your Holiness," said Cardinal Nicklaus.

"Tell me the good news first, Cardinal Nicklaus," said the Pope.

"Well, your Holiness, I don't like to brag, but even though I've played some pretty terrific rounds of golf in my life, this was the best I have ever played, by far. I must have been inspired from above. My drives were long and true, my irons were accurate and purposeful, and my putting was perfect. With all due respect, my play was truly miraculous."

"There's bad news?" the Pope asked.

"Yes," Nicklaus sighed. "I lost to Rabbi Tiger Woods by three strokes."

If you were to go first...

From My InBox:

Now that they are retired, Sally and James were discussing all aspects of their future. "What will you do if I die before you do?" James asked Sally.

After some thought, she said that she'd probably look for a house-sharing situation with three other single or widowed women who might be a little younger than herself, since she is so active for her age.

Then Sally asked James, "What will you do if I die first?"

He replied, "Probably the same thing."

Sued for laughing

From My InBox:

Sued for laughing
This is from an actual trial in the UK.

A young 
woman who was several months pregnant was sitting in a bus.

When she noticed a young man smiling at her she began feeling humiliated on
 account of her condition.

She changed her seat & he seemed more amused.

She moved again and then on seeing him laughing more, she filed a court case
 on him.

In the court the Man's defence was:

"When the lady boarded the bus I couldn't help noticing she was pregnant.
   She sat under an advertisement, which read 'Coming Soon- The unknown boon'.
I was even more amused when she then sat under a shaving advertisement,
 which read: 'William's stick did the trick'."

"Then I could not control myself any longer, when on the third move she sat
 under an advertisement, which read: 'Dunlop Rubber would have prevented this accident.'
The case was dismissed... the judge fell off his chair laughing....

Arrogance of Authority

From My InBox:

A DEA  (Drug Enforcement Agency) officer stopped
at a ranch in Texas , and  talked with an old  rancher.
He told the rancher, "I need to inspect  your ranch for
illegally grown drugs."
The rancher said, "Okay , but  don't go in  that field over there.....",
as he pointed out the  location.
The  DEA officer verbally exploded saying,
" Mister, I  have the authority of  the
Federal Government of the United States of America with me!"
Reaching  into his rear pants pocket, the arrogant
officer removed his badge and  proudly displayed it to the  rancher.

"See this f*****g badge? This badge means I am allowed to
go wherever I  wish.... On any land!
No questions asked or answers given!
Have I made myself clear? ...... Do you understand?"
The rancher then nodded politely,
apologized and went about his chores.
A short time later, the old rancher heard loud screams,
looked up, and saw the DEA officer running for his life,
being chased by the rancher's big Santa Gertrudis bull.



With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer,
and it seemed likely that he'd sure enough get gored before
he reached safety.
The  officer was clearly terrified.
The rancher threw down his  tools,
ran to the fence and yelled at the top of his lungs.
                 
(I just  love this  part....) 
     
   

"Your  badge!
Show him your f*****g BADGE........ !"

A Loving Wife……..

From My InBox:


A woman accompanied her husband to the doctor's office. After his checkup, the doctor called the wife into his office alone.

He said, "Your husband is suffering from a very severe disease, combined with horrible stress. If you don't do the following, your husband will surely die.
... 
Each morning, fix him a healthy breakfast. Be pleasant, and make sure he is in a good mood. For lunch make him a nutritious meal he can take to work. And for dinner, prepare an especially nice meal for him. Don't burden him with chores, as this could further his stress.

Don't discuss your problems with him; it will only make his stress worse. Try to relax your husband in the evening by wearing lingerie and giving him plenty of back rubs. Encourage him to watch some type of team sporting event on television. And most importantly, make love with your husband several times a week and satisfy his every whim. If you can do this for the next 10 months to a year, I think your husband will regain his health.

On the way home, the husband asked his wife, "What did the doctor say?"

"You're going to die," she replied.

Wives don't find this funny

From My InBox:

A bookseller conducting a market survey asked a woman – "Which book has helped you most in your life?"
The woman replied – "My husband's cheque book !!"

A prospective husband in a book store "Do you have a book called, 'Husband – the Master of the House'?
Sales Girl : "Sir, Fiction and Comics are on the 1st floor!".

Someone asked an old man : "Even after 70 years, you still call your wife – Darling, Honey, Luv. What's the secret ?
Old man : I forgot her name and I'm scared to ask her.


Wife : I wish I was a newspaper. So I'd be in your hands all day.
Husband : I too wish that you were a newspaper. So I could have a new one every day !

Husband to wife – Today is a fine day. Next day he says : Today is a fine day. Again next day, he says same thing – Today is a fine day. Finally after a week, the wife can't take it and asks her husband – since last one week, you are saying this "Today is a fine day'. I am fed up. What's the matter?
Husband : Last week when we had an argument, you said, "I will leave you one fine day." I was just trying to remind you……"

About getting older

From My InBox:


I just took a leaflet out of my mailbox,
informing me that I can have sex at 73.
I'm so happy, because I live at number 71.
So it's not too far to walk home afterwards.
And it's the same side of the street.
I don't even have to cross the road!
~~~~~
Answering machine message,
"I am not available right now,
But thank you for caring enough to call.
I am making some changes in my life.
Please leave a message after the beep.
If I do not return your call,
you are one of the changes."
~~~~~
My wife and I had words,
but I didn't get to use mine.
~~~~~
Frustration is trying to find your glasses
without your glasses.
~~~~~
Blessed are those who can
give without remembering
and take without forgetting.
~~~~~
The irony of life is that,
by the time you're old enough
to know your way around,
you're not going anywhere.
~~~~~
God made man before woman
so as to give him time
to think of an answer
for her first question.
~~~~~
I was always taught to respect my elders,
but it keeps getting harder to find one.
~~~~~
Every morning is the dawn of a new error.
~~~~~
Aspire to inspire before you expire.
