    O0kau, let's begin with current events. . . Russia has invaded Ukraine, to annex their gas-rich territory. (8sorry -- to keep the world safe from Nazi-ism) Oh, yes, Russia, the promise of the Communist Dream, as it was in the '80s - you remember, right?

    A conversation perhaps in later 1985, between Gorbaschev, & a soon-to-be- missing brave/stupid/suicidal man in the crowd:

    G: Comrades: I have good news -- if all the potatoes of our crop this year werew to be piled up, they'd reach all the way to Heaven.

    m: But, sir, you've taught us (under penalty of death, mind you) that there ain't no Heaven.

    G: That's okay, because there ain't no potatoes, neither! *signals to KGB*

    Yes, & they want Ukraine to have this 'dream', too. It's called "The Communist Dream," because you have to be asleep to believe it!

    A little Rowan Atkinson for you, when he's not doing the Bean thing, apparently he's hating on the French neighbours of his country:

    We offered kindly to donate them calais, But all they gave us back was the bidet, And now they won't let us go on holiday. That's why i hate the french, mmm,
    That's why i hate the french.

    They all wear berets and they're all called jacques. They even steal from us the words they lack: "le weekend", "le camping" and "cul-de-sac". That's why i hate the french,oh, That's why i hate the french.

    They claim their films are the best we've ever had; Well, i suppose emmanuelle wasn't bad. Charles aznavour is always so depressed; Wouldn't you be if "oui, oui" meant "yes"?

    Sacha distel has raindrops falling on his head. I wonder if jean-paul sartre knows he is dead? What i resent is that they're so good in bed. That's why i hate the french, oh,
    That's why i hate the french.

    They bake their bread in such a naughty shape. They brag about their wine and worship the grape. They criticise our food but then they eat crΩpe. That's why i hate the french, oh,
    That's why i hate the french.

    And now they've started coming here in droves. French cigarettes, french letters and french clothes. I'm sick and tired of eating all this brie And i'll be buggered if i go to gay paris.

    They're pretty cocky 'bout their games in the dark. They think with girls they light a special spark But look what the bastards did to joan of arc. That's why i hate the french, oh,
    That's why i hate the french, mmm,
    That's why i hate the french.

    Are two year olds REALLY so bad?

    L;et's do as the scientists do, & do a twins study; checking in on a neighbour who has identical twins, 15 months old, argying with each other: T1: You're ugly
    T2: No, YOU are ugly!
    T1: Well, you're uglier!
    T2: No way, YOU are the ugliest in the whole world! [continues in the same vein for another ten minutes until mama's teacup goes dry, & she screams, "YOU'RE F*CKING IDENTICAL TWINS, YOU MONSTERS!! NOW SHUT UP AND GET ALONG BEFORE I WRAP BOTH YOUR MOUTHS IN PACKING TAPE!"]

    Much thanks to my AR-Kansas mate, Daryl Stout for this one:

    What did Tennessee?? The same thing Arkansas...her name was Mrs. Ippi, and her daughter is Miss Sooree. They came from the breezy airport in central Oklahoma...where the wind comes sweeping down the plane...because the Texas were too big to the south. And, if there's any doubt further northwest, Alaska, and see what she says...but when I asked "Hawaii", she replied "OK". And, that's my stately humor for today.

    Just listening to thisright now on the radio; well written, well performed, & punny like I like:

    It was April the 41st
    Being a quadruple leap year
    I was driving through downtown Atlantis My Barracuda was in the shop, so
    I was in a rented Stingray
    And it was overheating
    So I pulled into a Shell station
    They said I'd blown a seal
    I said, "Fix the damn thing
    And leave my private life out of it Okay, pal?"
    While they were doing that
    I walked over to a place called the Oyster Bar A real dive
    But I knew the owner
    He used to play for the Dolphins
    I said, "Hi, Gil!"
    You hafta yell, he's hard of herring Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream
    Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Wet dream
    Gil was also down on his luck
    Fact is, he was barely keeping his head below water I gullied up to the sandbar He poured the usual
    Rusty snail, hold the grunion, shaken, not stirred With a peanut butter and jellyfish sandwich on the side Heavy on the mako I slipped him a fin, on porpoise
    I was feeling good
    I even dropped a sand dollar in the box for Jerry's squids For the halibut Well, the place was crowded
    We were packed in like sardines
    They were all there to listen to the big band sounds of Tommy Dorsal What sole Tommy was rockin' the place with a very popular tuna Salmon Chanted Evening And the stage was surrounded by screaming groupers Probably there to see the bass player One of them was this cute little yellowtail And she's giving me the eye
    So I figure, this is my chance for a little fun You know -- a piece of Pisces But she said things I just couldn't fathom She was too deep
    Seemed to be under a lot of pressure Boy, could she drink
    She drank like a... she drank a lot I said, "What's your sign?"
    She said, "Aquarium"
    I said, "Great! Let's get tanked."
    Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream
    Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Wet dream
    I invite her up to my place for a little midnight bait I say, "C'mon baby, it'll only take a few minnows" She threw me that same old line
    "Not tonight, I got a haddock"
    And she wasn't kiddin' either
    'Cause in came the biggest, meanest looking haddock
    I'd ever seen come down the pike
    He was covered with mussels
    He came over to me,
    He said, "Listen shrimp
    Don't you come trolling around here" What a crab
    This guy was steamed
    I could see the anchor in his eyes
    I turned to him
    I said, "Abalone! You're just being shellfish" Well, I knew there was going to be trouble And so did Gil
    'Cause he was already on the phone to the cods
    The haddock hits me with a sucker punch I catch him with a left hook
    He eels over
    It was a fluke
    But there he was, lying on the deck Flat as a mackerel
    Kelpless
    I said, "Forget the cods, Gil
    This guy's gonna need a sturgeon"
    Well, the yellowtail was impressed
    With the way I landed her boyfriend She came over to me, she said
    "Hey big boy, you're really a game fish" "What's your name?"
    I said, "Marlin"
    Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream
    Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Wet dream
    Well from then on, we had a whale of a time I took her to dinner
    I took her to dance
    I bought her a bouquet of flounders And then I went home with her
    And what did I get for my trouble?
    A case of the clams
    Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream
    Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

    Ole and Lena jokes:

    Did you ever hear about the Norwegian who loved his wife so much he almost told her?

    One day, Svend and Ole were hunting and suddenly a man came running out of the bushes, yelling, "Don't shoot! Don't shoot! I'm not a deer!" Ole raised his gun and shot him dead. Svend said, "Ole, why did you shoot that man? He said he wasn't a deer!" And Ole replied, "Oh! I thought he said he was a deer!"

    Blonde jokes:

    A blonde walks down the street and sees a banana peel ahead, and she says: "Here we go again."

    A blonde wanted to buy personalized license plates but she couldn't afford them. So she changed her name to JKM345.

    A blonde and her father are walking down a street when the father says, ''Look, a dead bird.'' And the blonde looks up and says, ''Where?''

    Third-grader jokes:

    How do you fix a broken tuba? With a tuba glue.

    Two missionaries were captured by cannibals and they were stuck naked in a big pot of water over a fire and the water got hotter and hotter and suddenly, one guy started laughing, and the other guy says, "What's so funny?" The first guy replied: "I couldn't help it. I just peed in their soup!"

    Why did the composer only compose in bed? He was writing sheet music.

    What do Alexander the Great and Winnie the Pooh have in common? They have the same middle name.

    How do you make a dog drink? Put it in a blender.

    The pickle says, "Well for starters, I'm celebrating the fact that I can walk."

    Political jokes:

    Hillary Clinton finds out from her doctor that she's pregnant. She is furious. Here she's in her first term as Senator of New York and she calls home, gets Bill on the starts screaming. "How could you have let this happen? You go and get me pregnant! How could you? It is all your fault!!!" she screams. And Bill says, "Who is this?"

    What were George W. Bush's three hardest years? Second grade.

    Doctors and medicine:

    A guy goes into a doctor's office wearing nothing but a piece of cling film around his waist. The doctor says, "I can clearly see you're nuts."

    This man is walking by an insane asylum and he hears the inmates inside chanting inside "Thirteen, thirteen, thirteen--" He is so fascinated that he walks up to the door and puts his eye up the keyhole and somebody pokes him in the eye with a sharp stick and the inmates start changing "Fourteen, fourteen, fourteen--"

    I woke up this morning and I felt so bad that I tried to kill myself by taking a thousand aspirin. But after the first two, I felt better.

    One-liners:

    I got an A in philosophy last semester by proving that my professor doesn't exist.

    Copy-editing is a very stressful line of work. Every time one of us misses a period, we get really nervous.

    So the dyslexic walked into the bra.

    Men and Women:

    Why does an archeologist make a good husband? Because the older you get, the more interested he is in you.

    "Hey. Nice earring. How long have you been wearing an earring?" "Ever since my wife found it in the car."

    My wife came home the other night and told me to take off her blouse. Then she told me to take off her skirt. Then she told me never to wear her clothes again.

    Odds 'n' Ends:

    An elephant was walking through the jungle when he saw a turtle sitting on a log. And he said, "Hey, you're the same turtle who bit me 45 years ago." And he kicked the turtle and it flew a hundred feet and bounced off a tree and into the river. And the giraffe said, "Wow, you've got quite a memory" and the elephant said, "I have turtle recall."

    Did you hear about the exhibitionist who was going to retire? He changed his mind, and decided to stick it out for one more year.

    What do you get if you cross a Jehovah's Witness and a Unitarian: Some one who goes around knocking on doors but isn't sure why.

    A man walks into a bar with a newt on his shoulder. He told the bartender that the newt's name was Tiny. "Why?" asks the bartender. "Because he's my newt!" replied the man.

    A man walked out of the bar and got in his car and a policeman came over and said, "Sir, your eyes seem to be bloodshot. Have you been drinking?" The man looked at the police officer and replied, "Officer, your eyes seem to be glazed. Have you been eating doughnuts?"

    A Baptist pastor was presenting a children's sermon.

    During the sermon, he asked the children if they knew what the resurrection was.

    Asking questions during children's sermons is crucial. Asking children questions in front of a congregation can also be very dangerous.

    After the pastor asked the children if they knew the meaning of the resurrection, a little boy raised his hand. The pastor called on him And the little boy said, "I'm not sure, but I know that if you have a resurrection that lasts more than four hours you are supposed to call the doctor."

    He said, "Up until Last week, I still had it all! All my meals were prepared for me, my room was cleaned, my clothes were washed, pressed, I had a roof over my head, I had TV, internet, I went to the gym, the pool, the library, I could still go to school."

    Larry's barn burned down and his wife, Susan, called the insurance company.

    Susan spoke to the insurance agent and said, "We had that barn insured for fifty thousand, and I want my money."

    The agent replied, "Whoa there, just a minute. Insurance doesn't work quite like that. An independent adjuster will assess the value of what was insured, and then we'll provide you with a new barn of similar worth."

    There was a long pause, and then Susan replied, "If that's how it works, then I want to cancel the life insurance policy on my husband."

    Two hunters were relaxing in their lodge, making small talk.

    One of them asked, "So, what do you hunt?"

    "Unicorns," came the surprising answer.

    Startled, the first hunter gasped, "Really? How do the hell do you do that?"

    "Well, I find a virgin and hire her to help me. They're the only thing that attracts unicorns. I have her wait in the woods until a unicorn comes up to her. When it does, it sets off a snare."

    The first hunter sighed, "Boy, they must be hard to find. I've heard of 'em, but I've never seen one."

    The second hunter said, "Yeah, and there ain't many unicorns either."

    John O'Reilly hoisted his beer and said, "Here's to spending the rest of me Life, between the
    legs of me wife!"

    That won him the top prize at the pub for the best toast of the night!

    He went home and told his wife, Mary, "I won the prize for the Best toast of the night."

    She said, "Aye, did ye now. And what was your toast?"

    John said, "Here's to spending the rest of me life, sitting in church beside me wife."

    "Oh, that is very nice indeed, John!" Mary said.

    The next day, Mary ran into one of John's drinking buddies on the street corner. The man
    chuckled leeringly and said, "John won the prize the other night at the pub with a toast about
    you, Mary."

    She said, "Aye, he told me, and I was a bit surprised myself. You know, he's only been in

    ~# from the world-famous ICE-Man: #~

    The mayor of Phoenix was very worried about a plague of pigeons in Phoenix . He could not remove the pigeons from the city. All of Phoenix was full of pigeon poop. The people of Phoenix could not walk on the sidewalks, or drive on the roads. It was costing a fortune to keep the streets and sidewalks clean. One day a man came to City Hall and offered the Mayor a proposition.
    'I can rid your beautiful city of its plague of pigeons
    without any cost to the city. But, you must promise not to ask me any questions, or you can pay me one million dollars to ask one question.' The mayor considered the offer briefly and accepted the free proposition.. The next day the man climbed to the top of City Hall, opened his coat, and released a blue pigeon. The blue pigeon circled in the air and flew up into the bright blue Arizona sky. All the pigeons in Phoenix saw the blue pigeon and gathered up in the air behind the blue pigeon. The Phoenix pigeons followed the blue pigeon as she flew southward out of the city. The next day the blue pigeon returned completely alone to the man atop City Hall. The Mayor was very impressed. He felt the man and the blue pigeon had performed a wonderful miraculous feat to rid Phoenix of the plague of pigeons. Even though the man with the pigeon had charged nothing, the mayor presented him with a check for 1 million dollars and told the man that, indeed, he did have a question to ask and even though they had agreed to no fee and the man had rid the city of pigeons, he decided to pay the 1 million just to get to ask ONE question. The man accepted the money and told the mayor to ask his ONE question. Do you think
    the Mayor is going to ask how the blue pigeon led all the pigeons away?
    Do you think
    the Mayor is going to ask where all the pigeons went? Do you think
    He is going to ask where the man got the blue pigeon? Nooooooo!
    This will get a smile out of you!
    The mayor asked: "Do you have a blue Mexican?"

    I love when my jokes or puns get secondary life. . .

    I'm a stinker; if asked to translate I'd likely have said, "Manure takes place" & keep on coming up with a new pair of synonyms until they clue in, or as is more usual, someone else gives it away! *at which I say, "Dammit, I could've got 3 more in before she got it!"

    I tend to always bushwhack when asked to translate my punny euphemisms, like, on hearing a bad person has left town, I'll say, "G.F.R." & translate it to just "Good riddance."

    This way they can't get offended, because only they supply the so-called offensive element.

    & when I tel one of these stuck up prigs to "get bent" & they are dumb enough to ask what that means, I say, "Imagine you don't just look & act like a hippo or rhino, but you smell like one in heat, & a male of the species is running towards you, & you have a wardrobe malfunction & are standing there, bent, with no clothes on. . . This is my thinking when I tell you to get bent. It's my new "Happy Place," picturing that scene.

    They still use the Pantone charts, in some paint stores -- I guess it was a useful & enduring creation -- although I might trust a computer image better, as it won't discolour over time. . .

    Q: Why is it spelled "Color" in the US but "Colour" in Britain? A:
    Because after the revolutionary war, the freed United States told
    Britain defiantly, "We're getting rid of you".
    They talk and spell funny compared to the US. <G>

    Umm, yeah, they somehow, prior to to the existence of the US, botched the language?

    I like the meme that plays on the oft-seen Chinese translation: "Simplified / Traditional" by saying:
    English:
    Traditional (UK flag)
    Simplified (US Flag)

    Canada is a funny one; we spell UK, bit pronounce US.

    Australia has their own words; whatever looks right after 8 pints of warm pissy tasting beer is valid & defend to their death anyone's disagreement of your rendition.

    Irish English is what you get after getting hammered on Guinness Stout then getting into a dozen bar fights

    Fitzhenry & Fitzpatrick were in court, answering to charges of fighting in a local pub.

    The judge asked Fitzpatrick what instigated the fight & he answered, "Well, your honour, he had a broken beer bottle in his left hand, & a knife in his right."

    "& what did you have yin your hand?" asked hizzonner

    "Mrs. Fitzhenry's tit, & a fine thing it was sir, but not much good in a fight, I'll tell ya."

    George,

    Not So useful a colour-matching chart when it no longer was the colour
    it was supposed to represent, eh?

    The fluorescent lights caused the colors to fade.

    They still use the Pantone charts, in some paint stores -- I guess it
    was a useful & enduring creation -- although I might trust a computer image better, as it won't discolour over time. . .

    That is true.

    Umm, yeah, they somehow, prior to to the existence of the US, botched
    the language?

    Pardon me, I speak doofus. <G>

    Canada is a funny one; we spell UK, bit pronounce US.

    One letter does make the difference.

    Australia has their own words; whatever looks right after 8 pints of
    warm pissy tasting beer is valid & defend to their death anyone's disagreement of your rendition.

    Everyone is entitled to my opinion. <G>

    Irish English is what you get after getting hammered on Guinness Stout then getting into a dozen bar fights

    When someone talked about the Grinch messing with the Christmas gifts on
    a ham radio net last night, I growled "I resemble that remark". I said that
    I sent Santa a letter saying "Define Naughty"...he's skipping my place. <G>

    Thanks for the mammaries, it was the breast of times, for a titilating experience, just to get the booby prize, bra none. <G>

    It's Monday...time to be in a nether mood. <G>

    Some ethnic jokes reworded
    Shout out to Prime Minister Justin True-Dope of Canada Q: Did you hear about the politician Santa Claus? A: He showed up for Easter!
    Q: How many politicians do you need to shingle your roof? A: Just 9, if you slice them real thin

    An Irishman, an Italian and a politician are on death row, awaiting electrocution.
    The warden takes the first man, and asks him if he has any last words.
    He says, 'I'm
    innocent. Perhaps years from now, evidence will show I"m telling the truth'.
    The warden says, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what they all say. I was
    hoping you would say
    something so that the family of the man that you killed, would have some closure'.
    They strap the Irishman into the chair, and the warden tells them to
    throw the switch.
    Nothing happens. The executioner wiggles the handle, throws the switch
    again, nothing.
    The warden comes down, and says, 'That was a million to one chance; but,
    you know the
    rules, you survived the execution, so you will now go free'.
    The Irishman is ecstatic, gets up shakes the warden's hand, and says,
    'See, I told you! God
    has saved me because I'm innocent! I will dedicate the rest of my life, to helping spread the
    word of god, I will only do good works from now on Thank you, sir, I'm very lucky to have had
    this second chance in life'.
    Then they walk the Italian in; again the warden asks if he has any final words.
    The Italian says, 'I'm an innocent; yoosa making a big mistake'.
    The warden shakes it off, and says, 'Yeah, I've heard that one
    before'.
    They strap him into the chair, and throw the switch. Again, nothing,
    again and again.
    The warden comes in, and says, 'This is amazing; this the second time in
    a row that this has
    happened; it has to be a billion to one chance. It must be a sign from god that you're telling
    the truth. I'm sorry I doubted you. You may go free'.
    The Italian gets up, joyful, tear in his eyes, and says, 'Thanka you
    thanka you thanka you!
    I'a wasa so ascared, anda yet, chance hasa smiled ona me! He gets up and leaves.
    Then they bring in the politician. The warden again asks, 'Do you have
    any final words?'
    The politician says, 'Yes. But first, look, that chair is unplugged'.
