WORLD WAR III IN THE PLANNING STAGES

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and Lord (Mandy) Mandelson are sitting in a pub. A bloke walks in and asks the landlord, 'Isn't that Brown and Mandy sitting over there?'

The Landlord says, “Yes, that's them.”

So the bloke walks over and says, “What are you two doing in here? Shouldn’t you be in London fixing the economy?”

Brown says, “ No! We're doing a much more important job. We’re planning World War III.'

The bloke says, “Really? What's going to happen?”

Mandy says, “Well, we're going to kill 140 million Muslims and one blonde with big knockers.”

The bloke exclaimed, “A blonde with big knockers?

Why kill a blonde with big knockers?”

Mandy turns to Brown and says, “See! I told you. No one will give a s**t about the 140 million Muslims.”

BEING IN A CRASH
Going to the brink of death and back, in a nine car pile-up on a dual carriage-way, is.. very much like making love to a beautiful woman.
First of all, brace yourself, hold on tight - particularly if it's a rear-ender. And pray you make contact with her twin airbags as soon as possible.

Dr. Epstein was a renowned physician who earned his undergraduate, graduate, and medical degrees in his home town and then left for Manhattan where he quickly rose to the top of his field.

Soon he was invited to deliver a significant paper at a conference, coincidentally held in his home town. He walked on stage and placed his papers on the lectern, but they slid off onto the floor. As he bent over to retrieve them, at precisely the wrong instant, he inadvertently farted. The microphone amplified his mistake resoundingly through the room and reverberated it down the hall!

He was quite embarrassed but somehow regained his composure just enough to deliver his paper. He ignored the resounding applause and raced out the stage door, never intending to be seen in his home town again.

However, decades later, when his elderly mother was ill, he returned to visit her. He reserved a hotel room under the name of Levy and arrived under cover of darkness. He just knew no one would remember him.

The desk clerk asked him, "Is this your first visit to our city, Mr. Levy?"

Dr. Epstein replied, "Well, young man, no, it isn't. I grew up here and received my education here, but then I moved away."

Why haven't you visited?" asked the desk clerk.

Actually, I did visit once, many years ago, but to tell you the truth an embarrassing thing happened, and since then I've been too ashamed to return."

The clerk consoled him. "Sir, while I don't have your life experience, one thing I have learned is that often what seems
embarrassing to me isn't even remembered by others. I bet that's true of your incident, too. No one would ever remember something that happened many years ago"

Dr. Epstein replied, "Son, I doubt that's the case with my incident."

"Was it a long time ago?" asked the clerk

"Yes, many years." replied the good doctor.

The clerk asked, "Was it before or after the Epstein Fart?"

Finally got around to going fishing this morning but after a while I ran out of worms. Then I saw a cottonmouth snake with a frog in his mouth, and frogs are good bass bait. Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in his mouth; I grabbed him right behind the head, took the frog and put it in my bait bucket. Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit.


I grabbed my bottle of Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth. His eyes rolled back and he went limp. I released him into the lake without incident and carried on my fishing with the frog.


A little later, I felt a nudge on my foot. There was that same damn snake


with two frogs in his mouth.
