				 | After a Beer Festival in London, all the brewery presidents decided to go out for a beer. Corona's president sits down and says, "Señor, I would like the world's best beer, a Corona." The bartender takes a bottle from the shelf and gives it to him.  
 Then Budweiser's president says, "I'd like the best beer in the world, give me 'The King Of Beers', a Budweiser." The bartender gives him one.
 
 Coors' president says, "I'd like the best beer in the world, the only one made with Rocky Mountain spring water, give me a Coors." He gets it.
 
 The guy from Guinness sits down and says, "Give me a Coke." The other brewery presidents look over at him and ask, "Why aren't you drinking a Guinness?" and the Guinness president replies, "Well, if you guys aren't drinking beer, neither will I."

 The local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a standing $1,000 bet.  
The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. 
 
Many people had tried over time (weight-lifters, longshoremen, etc.) but nobody could do it. 
 
One day this scrawny little man came into the bar, wearing thick glasses and a polyester suit, and said in a tiny squeaky voice "I'd like to try the bet." 
 
After the laughter had died down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man. 
 
But the crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and six drops fell into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the $1,000, and asked the little man, "What do you do for a living? Are you a lumberjack, a weightlifter, what?" 
 
The man replied, "I work for the IRS."

				 | John, a wealthy and single professional, decides he has had enough of the "ratrace".
 He finds a farmhouse in Montana miles from the nearest town and settles in.  He is relaxed and content.  He does not see another human being for 4 months.
 
 One day a man comes walking up his driveway.  The man introduces himself as Don explains that he owns the farm over the 'yonder' hill.
 
 Don invites John to his house that evening for a party.
 John replies "That would be great, I haven't been out of the house in months".
 
 Don tells him there will be drunkeness at this party.
 
 John replies " That's great, I could use a few drinks".
 
 Don tells him that drunkeness at one of his parties often lead to brawling.
 
 John replies "I am an ex- USMC officer... I think I can handle my own"
 
 Don then tells him that with all the excitement from the brawling mixed with all that alcohol it could lead to some wild and rough sex.
 
 John replies "Hey... I've been here alone for awhile, if you know what I mean"
 
 As Don is leaving John asks "Oh, by the way, what should I wear?"
 
 Don replies "It doesn't matter, It will be just the two of us".

				 | A young family moved into a house next door to avacant lot.   One day a construction crew turned up
 to start building a house on the empty lot.
 
 The young family's six year old daughter naturally
 took an interest in the activity going on next door
 and started talking with the workers. She hung
 around and eventually the construction crew - gems
 in the rough all of them - more or less adopted her
 as a kind of project mascot. They chatted with her,
 let her sit with them while they had coffee and
 lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here
 and there to make her feel important.
 
 At the end of the first week they even presented her
 with a pay envelope containing a dollar. The little
 girl took it home to her mother who said all the
 appropriate words of admiration and suggested that
 they take the dollar pay she had received to the
 bank the next day to start a savings account.
 
 When they got to the bank the teller was equally
 impressed with the story and asked the little girl
 how she had come by her very own pay cheque at such
 a young age. The little girl proudly replied,  "I've
 been working with a construction crew building a
 house."
 
 "My goodness gracious," said the teller, "and will
 you be working on the house again this week too?"
 
 "I will if those useless bas-tards at Home Depot
 ever bring us the f-ing' drywall," replied the little girl.

				 | A blind man enters a Ladies Bar by mistake. He finds his way to a barstool and orders a drink. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the  bartender, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?" 
 The bar immediately falls absolutely quiet. In a very deep, husky voice the woman next to him says, "Before you tell  that joke, sir, you should know five things..
 
 1 - The bartender is a blonde girl.
 2 - The bouncer is a blonde gal.
 3 - I'm a 6 feet tall, 200-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate.
 4 - The woman sitting next to me is blonde and is a professional
 weightlifter.
 5 - The lady to your right is a blonde and is a professional wrestler.
 
 Now think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?"
 
 The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head, and declares,
 "Nah,not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times"

				 | An engineer, a psychologist, and a theologian werehunting in the wilderness of Maine.
 Suddenly, the temperature dropped and a furious
 snowstorm was upon them. They came across an
 isolated cabin, far removed from any town. The hunters had
 heard that the locals in the area were quite hospitable,
 so they knocked on the door to ask permission to rest
 and shelter.
 No one answered their knocks, but they discovered the
 cabin was unlocked and they entered. It was a simple
 place; two rooms with a minimum of furniture and
 household equipment. Nothing was unusual about the
 cabin except the stove. It was large, pot-bellied,
 and made of cast-iron. What was strange about it was
 its location; it was suspended in midair by wires
 attached to the ceiling beams.
 "Fascinating," said the psychologist. "It is obvious
 that this lonely trapper, isolated from humanity,
 has elevated this stove so that he can curl up under
 it and vicariously experience a return to the womb."
 "Nonsense!" replied the engineer. "The man is
 practicing the laws of thermodynamics. By
 elevating his stove, he has discovered a way to distribute
 heat more evenly throughout the cabin."
 "With all due respect," interrupted the theologian,
 "I'm sure that hanging his stove from the ceiling
 has religious meaning. Fire "lifted up" has been a
 religious symbol for centuries."
 The three debated the point for several hours without
 resolving the issue. When the trapper finally
 returned, they immediately asked him why he had hung
 his heavy pot-bellied stove from the ceiling.
 His answer was succinct. "Had plenty of wire, not
 Much stove pipe."

				 | A wife arrived home from a shopping trip and was shocked to find her husband in bed with a lovely young woman. Just as she was about to storm out of the house, her husband said, let me tell you how this all came about
 I was driving home on the highway when I saw this young woman looking tired and bedraggled. I brought her home and made her a meal from the roast beef you had forgotten about in the fridge.
 
 She was barefooted so I gave her your good sandals, which you had discarded because they had gone out of style.
 
 She was cold so I gave her the sweater, which I bought for you for your birthday but you never wore because the color didn't suit you.
 
 Her pants were torn, so I gave her a pair of your jeans, which were perfectly good, but too small for you now.
 
 "Then just as she was about to leave, she asked, 'Is there anything else your wife doesn't use anymore ?'"

				 | Subject: Fw: Andy Rooney SpeaksAndy Rooney Speaks
 
 1. Andy Rooney on Vegetarians:
 
 "Vegetarian - that's an old Indian word meaning 'lousy hunter.'"
 
 2. Andy Rooney On Prisoners:
 
 Did you know that it costs forty-thousand dollars a year to house each
 prisoner? Jeez, for forty-thousand bucks apiece, I'll take a few prisoners
 into my house. I live in Los Angeles. I already have bars on the windows. I
 don't think we should give free room and board to criminals. I think they
 should have to run twelve hours a day on a treadmill and generate
 electricity. And if they don't want to run, they can rest in the chair
 that's hooked up to the generator.
 
 3. Andy Rooney On Fabric Softener:
 
 My wife uses fabric softener. I never knew what that stuff was for. Then I
 noticed women coming up to me, sniffing, then saying under their breath,
 "Married!" and walking away. Fabric Softeners are how our wives mark their
 territory. We can take off the ring, but it's hard to get that April fresh
 scent out of your clothes.
 
 4. Andy Rooney On Morning Differences :
 
 Men and women are different in the morning. We men wake up aroused in the
 morning. We can't help it. We just wake up and we want you. And the women
 are thinking, 'How can he want me the way I look in the morning?' It's
 because we can't see you. We have no blood anywhere near our optic nerve.
 
 5. Andy Rooney On Phone-In-Polls:
 
 You know those shows where people call in and vote on different issues? Did
 you ever notice there's always like 18% that say "I don't know." It costs 90
 cents to call up and vote and they're voting "I don't know." Honey, I feel
 very strongly about this. Give me the phone. (Says into phone) "I DON'T
 KNOW!" (Hangs up looking proud.) Sometimes you have to stand up for what you
 believe you're not sure about." This guy probably calls phone sex girls for
 $2.95 to say, "I'm not in the mood."
 
 6. Andy Rooney On Cripes:
 
 My wife's from the Midwest. Very nice people there. Very wholesome. They use
 words like 'Cripes'. 'For Cripe's sake.' Who would that be -- Jesus Cripe's?
 The son of 'Gosh' of the church of 'Holy Moly'? I'm not making fun of it.
 You think I wanna burn in 'Heck'?
 
 7. Andy Rooney On Grandma:
 
 My grandmother has a bumper sticker on her car that says, 'Sexy Senior
 Citizen.' You don't want to think of your grandmother that way, do you? Out
 entering wet shawl contests. Makes you wonder where she got that dollar she
 gave you for your birthday.
 
 8. Andy Rooney On Answering Machines:
 
 Did you ever hear one of these corny, positive messages on someone's
 answering machine? " Hi , it's a great day and I'm out enjoying it right
 now. I hope you are too. The thought for the day is: "Share the love." Beep.
 "Uh, yeah...this is the VD clinic calling....Speaking of being positive,
 your test results are back. Stop sharing the love."
 
 9. Andy Rooney on Research:
 
 Because over the past few years, more money has been spent on breast
 implants and Viagra than is spent on Alzheimer's Disease research, it is
 believed that by the year 2030 there will be a large number of people
 wandering around with huge breasts and erections...who can't remember what
 to do with them.

				 | Almost 150 years ago, President Lincoln found it necessary to hire aprivate investigator Alan Pinkerton - for protection. That was the
 beginning of the Secret Service.
 
 Since that time federal police authority has grown to a large number
 of multi-letter agencies - FBI, CIA, INS, IRS, DEA, BATF, etc. Now comes
 the "Federal Air Transportation Airport Security Service."
 Can't you see them now, these highly trained men and women in their
 black outfits with their initials in large white letters across
 their backs:
 "FATASS." I feel safer already.

 Two guys were sittin' at the bar, enjoying a couple Blooberries   .
 
One guy says, "I had a wonderful dream last night. It was just me and my fishin' rod on a beautiful lake. Just wonderful!"
 
The other guy says, "Really? Well I had a dream that I was in bed with two beautiful women!"
 
The first guys says, "What??? You were in bed with two beautiful women and you didn't call me???"
 
The other guys says, "Well... when I called, your wife said you were out fishing!"
 
DOH'!

				 | Hangover Ratings 
 One Star Hangover (*)
 
 No pain. No real feeling of illness. You're able to function relatively
 well. However, you are still parched. You can drink 5 sodas and still
 feel this way. For some reason, you are craving a philly sub and steak
 fries.
 
 
 Two Star Hangover (**)
 
 No pain, but something is definitely amiss. You may look okay but you
 have the mental capacity of a staple gun. The coffee you are chugging
 is only increasing your rumbling gut, which is still tossing around the
 fruity pancake from the 3:00 AM Waffle House excursion. There is some
 definite havoc being wrought upon your bowels.
 
 
 
 Three Star Hangover (***)
 
 Slight headache. Stomach feels crappy. You are definitely not
 productive. Anytime a girl walks by you gag because her perfume reminds
 you of the flavored schnapps' shots your alcoholic friends dared you to
 drink.  Life would be better right now if you were home in your bed
 watching Lucy reruns. You've had 4 cups of coffee, a gallon of water,
 3 iced teas and a diet Coke-yet you haven't peed once.
 
 
 
 Four Star Hangover (****)
 
 Life sucks. Your head is throbbing. You can't speak too quickly or else
 you might puke. Your boss has already lambasted you for being late and
 has given you a lecture for reeking of booze. You wore nice clothes, but
 that can't hide the fact that you only shaved one side of your face.
 (for the ladies, it looks like you put your make-up on while riding the
 bumper cars.) Your eyes look like one big red vein and even your hair
 hurts. Your sphincter is in perpetual spasm, and the first of about
 five sh**s you take during the day makes the eyes water of everyone
 who enters the bathroom.
 
 
 
 Five Star Hangover (*****)
 
 
 You have a second heartbeat in your head, which is actually annoying the
 employee who sits in the next cube. Vodka vapor is seeping out of every
 pore and making you dizzy. You still have toothpaste crust in the
 corners of your mouth from brushing your teeth in an attempt to get the
 remnants of the poop fairy out. Your body has lost the ability to
 generate saliva so your tongue is suffocating you. You don't have the
 foggiest idea who the hell the stranger was passed out in your bed this
 morning. Any attempt to defecate results in a fire hose-like discharge
 of alcohol-scented fluid with a rare 'floater' thrown in. The sole
 purpose of this 'floater' seems to be to splash the toilet water all
 over your ass. Death sounds pretty good about right now.

				 | From: Santa Claus
 I regret to inform you that, effective immediately, I will no longer
 serve the states of Georgia, Florida, Virginia, North and South
 Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas, and Arkansas on Christmas
 Eve.
 
 Due to the overwhelming current population of the earth, my contract
 was renegotiated by North American Fairies and Elves Local 209. As
 part of the new and better contract, I also get longer breaks for
 milk and cookies, so keep that in mind.
 
 However, I'm certain that your children will be in good hands with
 your local replacement, who happens to be my third cousin, Bubba
 Claus. His side of the family is from the South Pole. He shares my
 goal of delivering toys to all the good boys and girls; however,
 there are a few differences between us.
 
 Differences such as:
 
 1. There is no danger of the Grinch stealing your presents from Bubba
 Claus. He has a gun rack on his sleigh and a bumper sticker that
 reads: "These toys insured by Smith and Wesson."
 
 2. Instead of milk and cookies, Bubba Claus prefers that children
 leave an RC cola and pork rinds or a moon pie on the hearth. And
 Bubba doesn't smoke a pipe. He dips a little snuff though, so please
 have an empty spit can handy.
 
 3. Bubba Claus' sleigh is pulled by floppy-eared, flyin' coon dogs
 instead of reindeer. I made the mistake of loaning him a couple of my
 reindeer one time, and Blitzen's head now overlooks Bubba's
 fireplace.
 
 4. You won't hear "On Comet, on Cupid, on Donner and Blitzen.." when
 Bubba Claus arrives. Instead, you'll hear, "On Earnhardt, on
 Andretti, on Elliott and Petty."
 
 5. "Ho, Ho, Ho!" has been replaced by "Yee Haw!" And you also are
 likely to hear Bubba's elves respond, "I hear'd dat!"
 
 6. As required by Southern highway laws, Bubba Claus' sleigh does
 have a Yosemite Sam safety triangle on the back with the words "Back
 Off."
 
 7. The usual Christmas movie classics such as "Miracle on 34th
 Street" and "It's a Wonderful Life" will not be shown in your
 negotiated viewing area. Instead, you'll see "Boss Hogg Saves
 Christmas" and "Smokey and the Bandit IV" featuring Burt Reynolds as
 Bubba Claus and dozens of state patrol cars crashing into each other.
 
 And finally,
 
 8. Bubba Claus doesn't wear a belt. If I were you, I'd make sure you,
 the wife, and the kids turn the other way when he bends over to put
 presents under the tree.
 
 Sincerely Yours,
 
 Santa Claus

				 | A woman goes into Wal-Mart to buy a rod and reel. She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one
 and goes over to the register. A Wal-Mart associate
 is standing there with dark shades on.
 
 She says, ''Excuse me, sir, can you tell me
 anything about this rod and reel?''
 
 
 
 He says, ''Ma'am, I'm blind but if you drop it on the counter
 I can tell you everything you need to know
 about it from the sound that it makes.''
 
 
 
 She didn't believe him, but dropped it on the counter anyway.
 
 He said, ''That's a 6' graphite rod with Zebco 202 reel and 10 lb. test line.
 It's a good all-around rod and reel and it's $20.00.''
 
 
 
 She says, ''That's amazing that you can tell all that just
 by the sound of it dropping on the counter.
 I think it's what I'm looking for so I'll take it.''
 
 He walks behind the counter to the register.
 Just then, the woman farts. At first she is embarrassed but
 then realizes that there is no way he could tell it was her—
 being blind he wouldn't know that she was the only person around.
 
 
 He rings up the sale and says, ''That will be $25.50.''
 
 She says, ''But didn't you say it was $20.00?''
 
 He says, ''Yes, ma'am, the rod and reel is $20.00,
 the duck call is $3.00, and the catfish stink bait is $2.50.''

				SALESMAN
			 
 A little old lady answered a knock on the door one day, only tobe confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum cleaner.
 
 "Good morning", said the young man. "If I could take a couple of
 minutes of your time, I would like to demonstrate the very latest in high powered vacuum cleaners."
 
 "Go away!!!" said the old lady. 'I haven't got any money!'!! and she proceeded to close the door.
 
 Quick as a flash, the polished young man wedged his foot in the door and pushed it wide open. "Don't be too hasty!" he said. "Not until you have at least seen my demonstration." And with that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure onto her hallway carpet. "If this vacuum cleaner does not remove "all" traces of this horse manure from your carpet, Madam, I will "personally" eat the remainder."
 
 "Well now", she said, "I hope you've got a damned good appetite fella, because the electricity was cut off this morning because, like I told you, I don't have any money."

				 | A guy goes into a store and tells the clerk,"I'd like some Polish sausage."
 
 The clerk looks at him and says,
 "Are you Polish?"
 
 
 
 The guy, clearly offended, says,
 "Well, yes I am. But let me ask you
 something. If I had asked for Italian
 sausage would you ask me if I was
 Italian?
 
 Or if I had asked for German
 bratwurst, would you ask me if I was
 German?
 
 Or if I asked for a kosher
 hot dog would you ask me if I was
 Jewish?
 
 
 Or if I had asked for a taco
 would you ask if I was Mexican?
 
 Would ya, huh? Would ya?"
 
 The clerk says sheepishly, "Well, no."
 
 With deep, self-righteous indignation,
 the guy says, "Well, all right then,
 why did you ask me if I'm Polish just
 because I ask for Polish sausage?"
 
 The clerk replies, "Because this is Home Depot."

				 | Joe and John were identical twins.
 Joe owned an old dilapidated boat and kept pretty much to himself.
 
 One day he rented out his boat to a group of out-of-staters who ended up
 sinking it.
 
 He spent all day trying to salvage as much stuff as he could from the sunken
 vessel and was out of touch all that day and most of the evening.
 Unbeknownst
 to him, his brother John's wife had died suddenly in his absence.
 
 When he got back on shore he went into town to pick up a few things at the
 grocery. A kind old woman there mistook him for John and said, "I'm so sorry
 for your loss. You must feel terrible."
 
 Joe, thinking she was talking about his boat said, "Hell no! Fact is I'm
 sort
 of glad to be rid of her. She was a rotten old thing from the beginning. Her
 bottom was all shriveled up and she smelled like old dead fish. She was
 always holding water. She had a bad crack in the back and a pretty big hole
 in the front too. Every time I used her, her hole got bigger and she leaked
 like crazy."
 
 "I guess what finally finished her off was when I rented her to those four
 guys looking for a good time. I warned them that she wasn't very good and
 that she smelled bad. But they wanted her anyway. The damn fools tried to
 get
 in her all at one time and she split right up the middle."
 
 The old woman fainted.

				 | TRY THIS GAME DON'T PEAK AHEAD
 MIND GAME
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 2% or 98%
 
 This is strange...can you figure it out?
 
 Are you the 2% or 98% of the population?
 
 Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD!
 
 * Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow.
 
 * There's no trick or surprise.
 
 * Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a
 time and as quickly as you can!
 * Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until  you've done
 each of them . really.        * Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you
 might miss something).
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Think of a number from 1 to 10
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Multiply that number by 9
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Now subtract 5
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to  the number
 you ended up with
 
 (example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c,etc.)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Think of a country that starts with that letter
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Remember the last letter of the name of that country
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Remember the last letter in the name of that animal
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Think of the name of a fruit that starts with that  letter
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange?
 
 
 
 
 
 I told you this was FREAKY!! If not, you're among the 2% of the
 population whose minds are different enough to  think of something else. 98%
 of people will answer  with kangaroos in Denmark when given this exercise.
 Keep this message going. This one is actually worth  sending on to others.
 Forward it to people you know so they can find out if they are usual or
 unusual
