A couple went out for dinner to celibrate their 50th anniversey. On the drive home the wife looked over at her husband and saw a tear escape from his eye. She asks him,"are you getting sentimental thinking of our wonderful fifty years together?" He replies,"actually I was thinking about the time before we married." "Your father threathened me with a shotgun and said he would send me to jail for fifty years if I didn't marry you." "Tomorrow, I would be free."
A father watched his daughter playing in the garden. He smiled as he
reflected on how sweet and innocent his little girl was. Suddenly she
just stopped and stared at the ground.
He went over to her and noticed she was looking at two spiders
mating. "Daddy, what are those two spiders doing?" she asked.
"They're mating," her father replied.
"What do you call the spider on top, Daddy?" she asked. "That's a Daddy
Longlegs," her father answered. "So, the other one is Mommy
Longlegs?" the little girl asked. "No," her father replied. "Both of
them are Daddy Longlegs." The little girl thought for a moment, then she
stomped them flat and said........ "Well, it might be okay in
California, Vermont, and New York, but we're not having any of that
crap in Texas

Doctor: Well then, maybe it’s a staff infection
This is the ultimate response to a Dear John letter. You gotta love a man like this. Humor in the face of defeat. A marine was deployed to Afghanistan. While he was there he received a
letter from his girlfriend. In the letter she explained that she had slept with two guys while he had been gone and she wanted to break up with him AND she wanted pictures of herself back. So the marine did what any squared away marine would do. He went around to his buddies and collected all the unwanted photos of women he could find. He then mailed about 25 pictures of women (with clothes and without) to his girlfriend with the following note:
"I don't remember which one you are. Please remove your picture and send the rest back".
Two Cajuns ( we'll say Pierre & Gautreaux)
were riding to Houston down I-10. ( pronounced
" GO - tro " ) All of a sudden a sign appeared
saying Texas left. So the two men turned around
and returned home.
( ok ok it is corny ..... )
Justin Wilson said that you 'Texans' got
some other names for we Cajuns....... but that's
ok cause we got some other names for u too.
LOL...I thought it was Boudreaux and Tibdeaux ; )
speaking of I-10, my husband and I were traveling down highway 90 late one night and were pulled over for speeding, when they officer told him he clocked him at 90 in a 65mph zone, knowing he was going to get the ticket anyways he told the officer"Well, all the signs say 90!!!" And the policeman looks at him and smirked and said.."Right, smart guy, and I suppose you go 10 miles per hour down I-10"...he just looked at him, grinned and said "You mean that's an "I"???? We got the ticket....... I have total respect for the law, but some of those Texas Rangers just don't have a sense of humor ; )
A completely inebriated man was stumbling down the street with one foot on the curb and one foot in the gutter. A cop pulled up and said, "I've got to take you in, pal. You're obviously drunk."
Our wasted friend asked, "Officer, are ya absolutely sure I'm drunk?"
Yeah, buddy, I'm sure," said the copper. "Let's go."
Breathing a sigh of relief, the wino said, "Thank goodness, I thought I was a cripple."
i got pulled over the other day for speeding. The cop says did you know the speed limit here is 70 miles per hour? I replied, "Yeah, but I didnt plan on being out that long."
Three men are in a bar, one from New York City, one from Boston and the other from Texas. The man from Texas asks for a bottle of Tequila, downs two shots and throws the bottle up in the air and shoots it. He says, 'Where I come from in Texas, we got alot of tequila." The man from New York oders a bottle of the finest wine, downs a glass, throws the bottle up in the air and shoots it and says, "In New York, we got alot of good wine". The Boston man looks at them both quietly a moment and then orders a bottle of bourbon. He drinks a shot, takes out his gun and shoots the man from New York, looks over at the Texan and says, "Where I come from, we got alot of New Yorkers and we don't waste good whiskey!"
The Policeman had stopped the man for obvious drunken driving, but since the guy had a clean record, he made him park the car and took him home in the patrol car. "Are you sure this is your house?" the cop asked as they drove into a rather fashionable neighborhood.
"Shertainly!" said the drunk, "and if you'll just open the door f'me, I can prove it to ya." Entering the living room, he said, "You shee that piano? Thash mine. You shee that giant television set? Thast mine too. Now follow me."
The police officer followed the man as he shakily negotiated the stairs to the second floor. The drunk pushed open the first door they came to. "Thish ish my bedroom," he announced. "Shee the bed there? Thast mine! Shee that woman lying in the bed? Thash my wife. An' see that guy lying next to her?
"Yeah?" the cop replied suspiciously. Beginning at this point to seriously doubt the man's story.
Chutzpah!

A husband walks into Frederick's of Hollywood to purchase some sheer
lingerie for his wife. He is shown several possibilities that range from
$250 to $500 in price, the more sheer, the higher the price. He opts for
the most sheer item, pays the $500 and takes the lingerie home. He
presents it to his wife and asks her to go upstairs, put it on and model
it for him. Upstairs, the wife thinks, "I have an idea. It's so sheer
that it might as well be nothing. I won't put it on, do the modeling
naked, return it tomorrow and keep the $500 refund for myself." So she
appears naked on the balcony and strikes a pose. The husband says, "Good
Lord! You'd think that for $500, they'd at least iron it!" He never
heard the SHOT, Funeral services are pending.........
With all the natural disasters, wars and conflicts going on in the world, why would certain people choose to argue, fight and down others on a site that is supposed to bring fun and enjoyment to people. I hear enough garbage in the world, let alone having to read it in fellowship messages and discussion boards. I overlook most of it but then, once in awhile, like now, I have to speak my mind. They should grow up, go to the gym and punch bags to get rid of their hostility and leave this site alone to what is supposed to be. It is a game site for fun and enjoyment and that should be it. Fellowship messages and discussion boards should be kind, considerate, educational and not a sounding board for petty differences that are blown out of proportion. Now I have said my piece and back to my games.
件名: Did not mean to SPAM message boards; not my intention.
Big Bad Wolf, I am sorry and it will not happen again. I thought maybe my opinion about peace and love to all was worth something and wanted everyone to see it. I shall watch my etiquette more carefully from now on and maybe keep my opinions to myself. Did not mean to start anything. I thought it might help; instead it is causing more problems. Oh well, live and learn something new each day. Thank you for taking the time to give me your message.
On a hot, dusty day a cowboy rode into a small frontier town. After
dismounting he walked behind his horse, lifted it's tail and kissed it where
the sun don't shine.
An old man rocking by the general store witnessed the whole thing.
"Whudd'ya do that fer?" he asked.
"Got chapped lips," the cowboy replied.
The old man asked, "Does that help?"
The cowboy said, "Nope, but it keeps me from lickin' 'em."
