Uuuum, guys.... what's the padlock on the door for? The lock should be ON THE INSIDE shouldn't it? To keep people out.... while you're unloading? And not a padlock....lol.
An elderly man and woman were talking, and the man said, "Hey I just bought a new hearing aid the other day. The best hearing aid I've ever had. The thing cost over $4,000."
A lorry driver stopped at a roadside diner for lunch. He ordered a cheeseburger, coffee and a slice of apple pie. As he was about to eat, three motorcycles pulled up outside and presently a trio of Hells Angels came in. One grabbed the trucker's cheeseburger and took a bite from it, the second one took a slurp of the trucker's coffee, and the third wolfed down the apple pie.
The truck driver didn't say a word. He simply got up, paid the cashier, and left.
When he was gone, one of the Angels sneered, "He ain't much of a man, is he?"
"He's not much of a driver, either," the cashier replied, "He's just backed his lorry over three motorcycles."
nobleheart: Hat's off to your expertise in finding these images. The car driver would have been able to read the ad better if he had hit the bus in the middle. But maybe he was already on his mobile calling 13 10 10.
This is a true story told to me by a friend and edited down a bit.
Kevin, on holiday with some friends, walks into a bar and sees his friends already there at a table, except for one, Larry, who was standing at the far end of the bar waiting for his order of drinks. There's a sign posted on the wall, visible just above Larry's head. It says "No Gambling".
On coming inside Kevin spots Larry and then the sign. He points at it, calling out in a voice loud enough to reach Larry, and therefore everyone else, "I bet they don't enforce that here!"
That slowly gathers the bar's patron's attentions as Larry swivels his head up to read the sign. The bartender is just finishing Larry's drinks and is walking back to him as Larry looks back from the sign and replies in a booming voice, "You're on!"
Both guys have big smiles on their faces as everyone in the place turns to look at the bartender to see which one wins the bet. A few seconds goes by with all eyes on the hapless barman, caught in a logical trap, and then the whole place erupts into laughter.
A college student at a recent Carolina football game challenged a
senior citizen sitting next to him, saying it was impossible for
their generation to understand his. "You grew up in a different
world," the student said loud enough for the whole crowd to hear.
"Today we have television, jet planes, space travel, man has walked
on the Moon, our spaceships have visited Mars, we even have nuclear
energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light-speed
processing and, uh .."
Taking advantage of a pause in the student's litany, the geezer said,
"You're right. We didn't have those things when we were young; so we
invented them, son, Now what are you doing for
the next generation??"
I love senior citizens
The one thing I have learned through the aging of my OWN
children, is that they DO eventually realize that Mom and Dad (and
many others) are FAR smarter, and can add value to THEIR lives
once given enough time to mature past the age of "I know everything
and you know nothing"...we just have to give them time to
"grow up"!
An Irishman wants a job, but the foreman won't hire him until he passes a little maths test.
"Here's your first question, the foreman said "Without using numbers, represent the number 9."
"Without numbers?" the Irishman says, "Dat is easy." and proceeds to draw three trees.
"What's this?" the boss asks.
"Ave you got no brain? Tree and tree and tree make nine," says the Irishman.
"Fair enough," says the boss. "Here's your second question. Use the same rules, but this time the number is 99."
The Irishman stares into space for awhile, then picks up the picture that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree. "Ere you go."
The boss scratches his head and says, "How on earth do you get that to represent 99?"
"Each of da trees is dirty now. So, it's dirty tree, dirty tree, and dirty tree. Dat is 99."
The boss is getting worried that he's going to actually have to hire this Irishman, so he says, "all right, last question. Same rules again, but represent the number 100."
The Irishman stares into space some more, then he picks up the picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree and says, "Ere you go. One hundred."
The boss looks at the attempt. "You must be nuts if you think that represents a hundred!"
The Irishman leans forward and points to the marks at the base of each tree and says, "A little dog came along and crapped by each tree. So now you got dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree and a turd, and dirty tree and a turd, which makes one hundred.....So, when do I start?!"
