daib0 Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Here's a story for you all Once upon a time there was a King who wanted to go fishing. He called the royal weather forecaster and inquired as to the weather forecast for the next few hours. The weatherman assured him that there was no chance of rain in the coming days. So the King went fishing with his wife, the Queen. On the way he met a farmer on his donkey. Upon seeing the King the farmer said, "Your Majesty, you should return to the palace at once because in just a short time I expect a huge amount of rain to fall in this area". The King was polite and considerate; he replied: "I hold the palace meteorologist in high regard. He is an extensively educated and experienced professional, and besides, I pay him very high wages. He gave me a very different forecast. I trust him and I will continue on my way." So he continued on his way. However, a short time later, an absolutely torrential downpour of rain fell from the sky. The King and Queen were totally soaked and, well, their entourage chuckled upon seeing them in such a shameful condition. Rather furious, the King soon returned to the palace and gave the order to sack the professional upon immediate effect. He then summoned the farmer and offered him the prestigious and high paying role of royal forecaster. But the farmer said, "Your Majesty, I do not know anything about forecasting. I obtain my information from my donkey. If I see my donkey's ears drooping, it means with certainty that it will rain." So the King by-passed him and hired the donkey. And thus began the practice of hiring dumb *sses to work in the government and occupy its highest and most influential positions. And what's more, the practice is unbroken to this date...

Lowensda Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 An angry wife was complaining about her husband spending all his free time in a bar, so one night he took her along with him."What'll you have?" he asked."Oh, I don't know. The same as you I suppose," she replied.So, the husband ordered a couple of Jack Daniel's and threw his down in one shot.His wife watched him, then took a sip from her glass and immediately spat it out."Yuck, that's TERRIBLE!" she spluttered."I don't know how you can drink this stuff!""Well, there you go," cried the husband."And you think I'm out enjoying myself every night!"

Cornish Steve Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Mourinho is getting desperate about Chelsea's abysmal performances in the league. He's encouraged the players, threatened the players, and ridiculed the players - but nothing's worked. So last night, he decided to bring in a world-renowned hypnotist. The entire Chelsea squad attended a meeting with him in the dressing room after practice. The hypnotist's voice lulled them into a dreamy state: "Watch the watch. Watch the watch. Watch the watch..." Then, in a moment of clumsiness, the hypnotist dropped the watch and it smashed on the floor. "Crap!" Apparently, it's going to take the janitors until the weekend to clean the dressing room floor.

I can't find one thing fuc%ing funny about corners........we can't defend them and we've only scored one goal from a corner in the last 3 years ! If it's true Martinez doesn't practice them, then he needs a good kick up the arse.And, if it's not true, kick him anyway!

Lowensda Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 A judge was interviewing a woman regarding her pending divorce, and asked, "What are the grounds for your divorce?" She replied, "About four acres and a nice little home in the middle of the property with a stream running by." "No," he said, "I mean what is the foundation of this case? "It is made of concrete, brick and mortar," she responded. "I mean," he continued, "What are your relations like?' "I have an aunt and uncle living here in town, and so do my husband's parents." The judge said, "Do you have a real grudge?" "No," she replied, "We have a two-car carport and have never really needed one." "Please," he tried again, "is there any infidelity in your marriage?' "Yes, both my son and daughter have stereo sets. We don't necessarily like the music, but the answer to your questions is yes." "Ma'am, does your husband ever beat you up?" "Yes," she responded, "about twice a week he gets up earlier than I do." Finally, in frustration, the judge asked, "Lady, why do you want a divorce?" "Oh, I don't want a divorce," she replied. "I've never wanted a divorce. My husband does. He said he can't communicate with me." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 That's not a joke J, it's an unarguable truth. Said to my wife in a supermarket the other day, "When I'm lying on my death bed I'm going to look back and wish I'd spent more time shopping with you." I don't think she even heard me, too engrossed with the task in hand and steering an overloaded trolley (we'd only gone in for milk, bacon and a bottle of red).

johnh Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 We needed some milk. I took her indoors to the local mini-supermarket and confirmed that was all we needed to get. I got a basket, which was a good sign as I was worried she would get a trolley. She then spent five minutes looking at the plants on the rack outside the door. Fortunately, didn't take any. By the time we got to the check-out I had two baskets, both full, on the way home all I got was 'I'm sure I've forgotten something'. Having said that, the bottle of wine, 2 bottles of beer and a six pack of crisps that I got weren't on the list either! markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubecula Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 My wife and I went to the Royal Show and one of the first exhibits westopped at was the breeding bulls.. We went up to the first pen andthere was a sign attached that said, ' THIS BULL MATED 50 TIMES LAST YEAR ' My wife playfully nudged me in the ribs .......Smiled and said, 'Hemated 50 times last year, that's almost once a week.' We walked to the second pen which had a sign attached that said,''THIS BULL MATED 150 TIMES LAST YEAR' My wife gave me a healthy jab and said, 'WOW~~That's more than twice!a week ! .........You could learn a lot from him.' We walked to the third pen and it had a sign attached that said,in capital letters,'THIS BULL MATED 365 TIMES LAST YEAR' My wife was so excited that her elbow nearly broke my ribs, and said,'That's once a day .You could REALLY learn something from this one.' I looked at her and said,'Go over and ask him if it was with the same cow.' My condition has been upgraded from criticalto stable and I should eventually make a full recovery.

rubecula Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Mary recently lost her husband. She had him cremated and brought his ashes home. Picking up the urn that he was in, she poured him out on the patio table. Then, while tracing her fingers in the ashes, she started talking to him.... You know that dishwasher you promised me? I bought it with the insurance money!" She paused for a minute tracing her fingers in the ashes then said, "Remember that car you promised me? Well, I also bought it with the insurance money!" Again, she paused for a few minutes and while tracing her fingers in the ashes she said, "Remember that diamond ring you promised me? I bought that too, with the insurance money!" Finally, still tracing her fingers in the ashes, She said, "Remember that blow job I promised you?" "Here it comes." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
