An old country farmer with serious financial problems
bought a mule from another old farmer for $100, who
agreed to deliver the mule the next day.
However, the next day he drove up and said,

"Sorry, but I have some bad news: The mule died."

"Well, then, just give me my money back."

"Can't do that. I went and spent it already."

"OK, then. Just unload the mule."

"What ya gonna do with a dead mule?"

"I'm going to raffle him off."

"You can't raffle off a dead mule!"

"Sure I can. I just won't tell anybody he's dead."

A month later the two met up and the farmer who
sold the mule asked,

"Whatever happened with that dead mule?"

"I raffled him off just like I said I would. I sold 500
tickets at $2 a piece and made a profit of $898."

"Didn't anyone complain?"

"Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."

What a great story AnthonyN wrote on page 2 of this thread.
"WHAT REALLY COUNTS."

Take a well done!

hunters
 

heres one for all you huntin fans out there (not me)


A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head.

The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: "My friend is dead! What can I do?"

The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: "Just take it easy. I can help.
First, let's make sure he's dead."

There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: "OK, now what?"

:laughs: :laughs:

Sherlock Joke
 

and another, for all you mystery fans:

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep. Some hours later , Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see." '"I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes," replies Watson.

"And what do you deduce from that?"

Watson ponders for a minute.

"Well, astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.
Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three.
Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and
insignificant part of the universe. What does it tell you, Holmes?"

Holmes is silent for a moment. "Watson, you idiot!" he says. "Someone has stolen our tent!"

:laughs: :laughs:

Once upon a time, Hercules, Snow White, and Quasimodo were talking over a picnic lunch.

Hercules says, "You know, everyone says I am the strongest mortal on the earth, but I don't know how to prove it. That bothers me a lot."

Snow White said "You're right! Everyone says I am the fairest, but how can I be sure?"

Quasimodo agrees. "Yeah, and I'm supposed to be the ugliest!"

Suddenly Snow White has an idea. "You know, guys, I've got the answer. Let's pray about this and ask God to tell us the truth."

Hercules says "Great, Let's meet tomorrow and tell our tales."
Quasimodo gets up to leave and says "See you tomorrow. Boy, I'm going to find out for certain that I'm the ugliest."

The next day, they meet at a restaurant in town. Hercules says, "I talked to God, and He says that I am truly the strongest."

Snow White says, "So did I, and I am truly the fairest."

Quasimodo has his head down, leaning on the table and says, "Who the hell is _______________?"

(fill in the __________ with your buddy that deserves to get some grief.)

errr, bump :eek5:

It's ALIVE.............

Longest thread
 

Holy Smokes!!!!!!! Ya'll really have one going here!!!!! Hey John and friends- picked up on this board from the seacraft site- wasn't going to post because you guys seem to be localized from Mass, but our local board (Virginia) has a pretty long thread going also. Check us out:

http://www.tidalfish.com/boards2/vie...78799&id=14409

Thanx, and please send those big rockfish(striped bass) soon, the dinks under 40" are getting old.:D :D :D

Hey Miles - welcome to S-B :kewl: ... Yeh, I like that site. Tidalfish is a good and BIG site for down that way. I don't get much chance to read in there, but I've always liked that site.

Now I have a question for ya - Are you actually towing "Miles" with a Wrangler? Ouch ;) talk about the boat walking the truck on the highway

This thread was a competition of sorts between different sites that use this same message board, we have some 4700+ messages on this thread and 21K views but it was a big running joke/chat thread...

I think the winner of the competition had some 25 THOUSAND posts on a "Lord of the Rings" movie website...

But they didn't have a "Team Looney" :hs: :hihi:

And most (but not all) of the big gals have already passed here on their way to ya... Hope the back gets better!

Thanx John-

That is a jeep wrangler towing my baby the first time I put her in the water. Since the inlet is only a couple of miles from the house here it did ok. (it also was the last time I used it). I thought it was a cool pic though and really shows off the size of the hull for a 23' boat!!!!

Glad you guys are sending the big gals on down. I do here of some 40" fish showing up more and more on a daily basis. Hopefully the tournament thing that the dealer is trying to put on this month will be a sucess. I would like to see it as an annual event but not necessarily here every year. We truly have superb fishing basically starting now and weather dependant, running thru february. Maybe next year after my back gets a little better you might take a trip down so you can see for yourself. Do you guys have a slot limit up there??? We had one up to a couple of years ago and they removed it last year:confused: . Anyways enough of my jabbering- I will keep an eye on you guys up there :D and if you come on any hot baits, let me know- I would be happy to do the same- MoJo's Parachutes etc- Craig

Hey Miles - at least tell me it was a 4.0 Litre Wrangler :) ...

To be honest, we're not letting you have them willingly :p . This fall run wasn't all that great in my mind, not bad, but it did not live up to it's potential when the weather crashed hard.

That dealer tourney could be interesting for next year but I'm on a short leash after draining the cookie jar during the fall. It would be nice to see it move around a bit too.

Up in Rhody - no slot, 2 fish over 28 inches (not that I'd keep a 28 inch fish). In Mass, 1 fish over 28 inches. With A-6 around the corner, I doubt a slot is going to happen around here like it originally looked. A lot more potential problems with a slot up here than down there I suppose.

See ya...

Just thought I'ld let ya know my daughter is an awsome flute player. :)

I think its almost time again!!! :rolleyes: :smash:

yep...think your right

should have a few more looneys this year

Just checking in.............

I may play...:laughs:

are you certifiable????:happy:

HI!:)

hey no one really NEEDS to be certifiable.......just hang around enough and you'll get your degree!!! HA!HA!:eek:

Sure just ask my doc...:smash: Ok I'm hearing voices again where are my pills!

Are we there yet??:D

http://www.striped-bass.com/images/bloo/teamlooney2.gif

I do have one request - when the Team Looney logo just needs to go up, use this link: <>http://www.striped-bass.com/images/bloo/teamlooney2.gif<> but relpace the <> with an "[img]" bracket at the front and "[/img]" at the back, this will call it upi from memory instead for the 4 megs of TeamLooney images we had earlier on the Longest Thread :laughs:

:eek5:

Thats a lot of Looney

John, you better re-read the fineprint.

There are NO rules in LooneyVille...unless created & approved by the LooneyVille committee which has yet been formed. Chapter V. - Article VII: verse; 34. This Bible can be accessed thru our website, which is currently closed to all Non-Looney-ians due to the fact that Jenny Lopez married Ben Afleck. For further information on the type of registration which requires very little compensation but rewards with great amounts of constipation, you must get a prescription from you Dr. and submit it - via Post, PM, email, currier pigeon, burro etc....

"Act your Age!!" ...will NOT be tolerated here!!!....so don't do it!


Party on!!!......fellow Looney-ians >>>:D:D<<<

Twas the month after New Year's, and all through the house
Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste
At the holiday parties had gone to my waist.
When I got on the scales there arose such a number!
When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).

I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared;
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared,
The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese
And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please."
As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt
And prepared once again to do battle with dirt---
I said to myself, as I only can
"You can't spend a winter disguised as a man!"


So--away with the last of the sour cream dip,
Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip
Every last bit of food that I like must be banished
'Till all the additional ounces have vanished.
I won't have a cookie--not even a lick.
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.


I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie,
I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry.
I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore---
But isn't that what January is for?
Unable to giggle, no longer a riot.
Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!
