Runningfox M.	October 16, 2009 4:33 PM The Kiss A cabbie picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and notices that the VERY handsome cab driver won't stop staring at her. She asks him why he is staring. He replies: "I have a question to ask, but I don't want to offend you." She answers, " My son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive. "Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me." She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do about that... 1) you have to be single and 2) you must be Catholic." The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I'm single and Catholic!" "OK" the nun says. "Pull into the next alley." The nun fulfills his fantasy with a kiss that would make a hooker blush. But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying. "My dear child," said the nun, why are you crying?" "Forgive me but I've sinned. I lied and I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish." The nun says, "That's OK. My name is Kevin and I'm going to a Halloween party!" [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	September 22, 2009 9:14 AM Hospital Patient A sweet old lady telephoned St. Joseph's Hospital. She timidly asked, "Is it possible to speak to someone who can tell me how a patient is doing?" The operator said, "I can, what's the name and room number?" The old laday in her weak voice said, "Norma Findlay, Room 302." The operator replied, "Let me place you on hold while I check with her nurse." After a few minutes the operator returned to the phone and said, "Oh, I have good news, her nurse just told me that Norma is doing very well. Her blood pressure is fine; her blood work just came back as normal and her physician, Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged on Tuesday." The old lady said, "Thank you. That's wonderful! I was so worried! God bless you!" The operator replied, "You're more than welcome. Is Norma your daughter?" The grandmother said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in 302. No one tells me %#&!*%."

Runningfox M.	July 07, 2009 5:37 PM SMARTASS ANSWER OF THE YEAR 2006 A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. "Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury, illness, or a death in your immediate family, but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!" A smart-ass guy in the back of the room raised his hand and asked, "What would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?" The entire class is reduced to laughter and snickering. When silence is restored, the teacher smiles knowingly at the student, shakes her head and sweetly says, "Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand." [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	June 03, 2009 5:27 PM A woman was paying for some items in a supermarket - a pint of milk, a packet of bacon, a small bag of rice and a few vegetables. The man at the checkout said, "I bet you're single, aren't you?" "Well yes, I am," the woman replied. "How did you know?" "Because you're really ugly," replied the man. [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	March 10, 2009 4:39 PM If a man is in a forest talking to himself with no women around, is he still wrong? Man's commonest fault is not knowing what he doesn't know. To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research. I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve immortality through not dying. By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends. Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again. Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it. - Mark Twain The cure for insomnia is to get more sleep. Everyone should have a spouse, because there are a number of things that go wrong that one can't blame on the government. Thirty-five is when you finally get your head together and your body starts falling apart. If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to serve as a horrible warning. Life is an endless struggle full of frustrations and challenges, but eventually you find a hair stylist you like. One of the life's mysteries is how a two pound box of candy can make a person gain five pounds. You know you're into middle age when you realize that caution is the only thing you care to exercise.

Runningfox M.	March 08, 2009 6:59 PM Smile, it's the second best thing you can do with your lips. Sex is like air, it's not important unless you aren't getting any. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyways. If vegetable oil is made of vegetables, what is baby oil made of? No guts, no glory, no brain, same story. Cocaine is gods way of telling you that you make too much money. If quiters never win, and winners never cheat, then who is the fool who said, "Quit while you're ahead"? If you don't die from it -- it is healthy. If everything is going well, you don't know what the hell is going on. One good turn gets most of the blankets. It is better to be looked over than overlooked. It is not what a teenager knows that bothers his parents, it's how he found out There are two kinds of pedestrians -- the quick and the dead. Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. An unbreakable toy is useful for breaking other toys. If at first you don't succeed -- give up! No use being a damn idiot. Falling in love is awfully simple. Falling out of love is simply awful. You can only be young once, but you can be immature forever. [ send green star]

Walelu M.	February 20, 2009 9:22 AM RUB MY N I P P L E S Keep this in mind when you have something to return and the store gives you a hard time - A woman went to a K-Mart service counter and told the clerk she wanted a refund for the toaster she bought because it won't work. The clerk told her that he can't give her a refund because she bought it on special. Suddenly, the woman threw her arms up in the air and started screaming, 'RUB MY NIPPLES, RUB MY NIPPLES, RUB MY NIPPLES!' The befuddled clerk ran away to get the store manager in front of a growing crowd of customers. The manager comes to the woman and asks,'Ma'am what's wrong?' She explained the problem with the toaster, and he also told her that he can't give her a refund because she bought it on special. Once again, the woman throws her arms up in the air and screamed, 'RUB MY NIPPLES, RUB MY NIPPLES, RUB MY NIPPLES!' and doing so draws an even bigger crowd! In shock, the store manager pleads, 'Ma'am, why are you saying that?' In a huff, the woman says, 'BECAUSE, I LIKE TO HAVE by Nancy Voorspoels [ send green star]

Runningfox M.	February 01, 2009 4:08 PM The grass may be greener on the other side on the fence but someone still has to cut it. If a book about failures doesn't sell, is it a success? What do you do when you see an endangered animal that eats only endangered plants? Is it possible to be totally partial? If a parsley farmer is sued, can they garnish his wages? Can you be a closet claustrophobic? Why do people who know the least know it the loudest? If the funeral procession is at night, do folks drive with their lights off? If a stealth bomber crashes in a forest, will it make a sound? If a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked? When it rains, why don't sheep shrink? Should vegetarians eat animal crackers? If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain silent? Why is the word abbreviation so long? When companies ship Styrofoam, what do they pack it in? [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	February 01, 2009 3:53 PM Dear employees, Due to the current financial situation caused by the slowdown of economy, Management has decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early retirement. This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early). Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to management to be eligible for the SHAFT scheme (Special Help After Forced Termination) . Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW program (Scheme Covering Retired Early Workers). A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as Management deems appropriate. Persons who have been RAPED can get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependants & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).. Obviously persons who got AIDS or HERPES is not eligible to be SHAFTed or SCREWed any more. Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much %#&!% (Special High Intensity Training) as possible. Management has always prided itself on the amount of %#&!% it gives employees. Should you feel that you do not receive enough %#&!%, please bring it to the attention of your Supervisor. They have been trained to give you all the %#&!% you can handle. Sincerely, The Management [ send green star]

Runningfox M.	November 14, 2005 4:33 PM Vegas BROTHEL funded by US Government Grants! You guys won't believe this. I just got back from the wildest trip to vegas (buddy's bachelor party). Of the many fiascos that I could share with you from this 5 day romp there is a specific story that needs to be retold. Keep in mind my blood type was probably Heineken at the time so some of the details will be fuzzy. Anyways, one night our group ended up at a vegas brothel that we will call, "The Hump Street Hotel". This night turned out to be a blast. The girls are hot here and eveyone forked out for a lap dance. I think one of our friends spent his lap dance time reciting poetry to his girl because he seemed to get VIP treatment. She ended up inviting us to hang out and drink with some of the girls in the private lounge. After awhile the brothel owner (Mr. Hump) joined us. This guy was a true pimp. Strolled in with 2 hot could-be-models on each side. He was happy to buy a few rounds for our party. I'm sure he could afford it! Now Mr.Hump got really interesting after he started to get a few drinks in him. He began telling us how he started the vegas brothel that we were enjoying so much. Apparently, when he was 36 he was broke and stuck in a dead-end job. His only enjoyment was the weekly visit to a vegas brothel. One day he decided to act on the dream that every man has...open his very own vegas brothel. But he was broke, where is he going to get that kind of dough? You will never believe what he accomplished! He did some research on Google and decided to apply for a government grant. Of course this is a long shot, what government institution is going to fund a vegas brothel?! Well he ended finding a grant entitled the Society Health Support Initiative (or something like that). This grant was created to fund programs that helped senior citizens in the state of Nevada improve their health through exercise. Lo and behold, by doing his homework and submitted a well-written proposal he was awarded $175,000! Of course, he never mentioned the nature of the "exercise" that was going to occur in his establishment. =) There you have it, first-hand knowledge that there is a vegas brothel funded by government grants. Only in America! Everything About Government Grants [ send green star]

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to flight number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles. The weather ahead is good and we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. Now, sit back and relax - - - OH MY GOD!!!!" Dead silence followed. After a few minutes, the captain came back on the intercom and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I apologize. I am so sorry if I scared you earlier. But while I was speaking, the Flight Attendant brought me a cup of hot coffee and spilled the coffee all over my lap. You should see the front of my pants!" A passenger in coach shouted back, "That's nothing. You should see the back of mine!" [report anonymous abuse]

Toot my own horn Pull out all the stops Add fuel to the fire Open a can of worms Put my foot in my mouth Start the ball rolling Go over the edge. Pick up the pieces.

Runningfox M.	Sick Joke How To Tell Someone bad news March 31, 2005 9:00 AM Phil goes to Europe and leaves his favorite dog with his brother James. While in Europe, Phil calls James to check on his dog and asks, "So James, hows my favorite dog doing??" James very tersely says, "Your dog is dead!" "What?" says Phil "you can't just tell someone their favorite dog is dead without a warning, you have to ease them into it." "How?" says James. "Well, the first day I call, tell me my dog is on the roof," remarked Phil "tell me the dog is going to be fine and not to worry. The next day, when I call to ask about my dog, tell me that you were about to get her down, when it jumpped off of the roof and broke its leg, tell me the doctors say it will be ok, but it will have to stay at the vets for a while. Are you getting all of this?" "Yes." says James" "Good!" remarks Phil. "Then the next day when I call back, tell me that there was severe internal bleeding that the vet didn't pick up and that my favorite dog died at 2:00 this morning. That way it won't be such a shock to me. Got it?" "Yes." "Good, so, how's Grandma doing?" asks Phil. "Well..." James replies, "She's on the roof!" [ send green star]

I went to see the chiropractor yesterday, and when he was finished with me, it seemed that things wanted to start moving again. Well, as it usually seems to happen, I was feeling a little gassy... There we were, at a red light, when suddenly, I said, "Excuse me," to my husband, who looked at me and asked, "What'd ya do? Fart?" "Actually, yes," I said, feeling the heat of embarrassment burning in my face. Suddenly, my husband's face screwed up in a grimace, like he'd just eaten the most potent lemon in his life, and he gasped, "Whoa!" as he frantically tore the cap from his head and rolled down the window to "escort" the sour fragrance out. I started laughing. I couldn't help it. And the harder I laughed, the more I released! By the time that stoplight turned green again, my poor husband's face was positively glowing with a sickly green color from the lack of clean oxygen! I apologized like crazy to him, but it was pretty pointless, because I was laughing so hard I was in tears, myself! [report anonymous abuse]
