So he says "OK I'll be back." He tosses him his keys runs across the street and has a big ol' bowl of ice cream. He comes back, looks at the mechanic and says "Did you figure out what's wrong with my car?" "Well" replies the mechanic "looks like you blew a seal." The penguin quickly wipes off his face and says "OH NO, that's just ice cream!"

5 Best Jewish Jokes Ever ..... *Lawrence Rifkin

This is one of my favourite Jewish jokes. I came across it in one Sigmund Freud's books, maybe "the Psychopathology of Everyday Life". I don't remember.

A Jewish tailor goes to pray in the Prague synagogue. After a while the whole building begins to shake and it fills with a hideous shrieking noise and a foul sulphurous stench. The tailor pays no heed and continues with his prayers. The noise and stench intensifies, cracks appear in the walls and floor and then a fearful demon appears belching fire and smoke. The tailor gives the demon an irritated look and continues with his prayers.

The demon draws himself to his full height and bellows at the tailor:
"You miserable little man, do you not know who I am?"
The tailor snarls back at him
"Of course I know who you are, I've been married to your sister for 30 years"

Recent quote from Steve Martin.....

“I believe that sex is one of the most beautiful, natural, wholesome things that money can buy.”

Some people claim that money can't buy happiness, but I disagree. Money can buy a jet ski. Have you ever seen anyone unhappy on a jet ski? That sure looks like someone just bought happiness in the form of a jet ski.

The only place I ever wanna see a jet ski is in the telescopic site on my hunting rifle.

Grrrrr. *HATE* those noisy, inconsiderate, pointless things.

The keys should come with an appointment for a lobotomy.

The following is a true story, but it still cracks me up over 20 yrs later.


We were on the sub, surfaced, doing about 12 kts in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the sun was getting low on the horizon, dolphins playing in the bow wake. The CO was a cigar smoker, he was in the sail as OOD enjoying a smoke, I was next to him as lookout and the Navigator (who was not well liked) was up there with us to get some fresh air and sun.

The CO decided it was a good time to practice Man Overboard (MOB) drills, so he called down to control and told them to send up an empty 5 gal cardboard milk container in a plastic bag, plus a Magic Marker.

The milk container arrived and the Capt. drew some bushy eyebrows on it, a big moustache and a beak nose and asked me, "Does that look like the Nav to you?"

I replied, "Yes sir! Exactly like him!" The Nav gave me a half scowl/half smile when he saw it. Then the Capt. tossed it over the port side and yelled, "OH NO!! The Navigator just fell overboard!!"

I didn't say a word. The Capt. turns to me and says, "Didn't you hear me? I said he just fell overboard!!" "Yes sir," I replied. He said, "Don't you think you should call away a Man Overboard?!?!!" "Sir, you said the Navigator, correct?"

When the Capt. heard that, he started howling with laughter, so hard, he started coughing between the cigar smoke and the laughing! "I see your point!"

The Nav shot an unamused look at the 2 of us.

The Capt. got on the 1MC (which broadcasts throughout the boat) and said, "I just tossed the Navigator overboard as part of a MOB drill, and ET2 Frakes has decided he doesn't want to go back and get him. Can you please send up another milk container and this time we'll actually try to get him back!"

We could hear the howls of laughter coming up from Control, 20 ft below us, everyone was cheering! The Nav. was now getting a little pissed off, so he said he was going back down to Control to straighten all of the clowns out. LOL

************************************************** ****************



PS:

After he went down below, a new milk container was brought up and we did it again. This time I called away "MAN OVERBOARD - PORT SIDE!" The CO started giving direct helm and throttle orders, we did a tight u-turn and came right back up our old track, and slowed to a dead stop as the milk carton washed up on the sloped bow. If it had been an unconscious man, he would have been up on the deck, lying on his back awaiting medical attention. A perfect recovery!

On the contrary!

Have you ever seen anyone happy around a jetski other than the d*ckhead on it? For every happy jet ski rider, there are many, many unhappy people being annoyed by it. Overall, buying a jet ski buys unhappiness.

And for Buzzman, I'd also be happy to see one under the bow of a large ship

I must admit, I'm getting a big laugh out of the latest furor in the liberal media/crisis machine over the Confederate flag, how they're touting it as a symbol of oppression, racism, intolerance, and all of the other perjoratives they can cook up.

My, how short their memories are.
