    A primary school teacher in the Bronx decided to see if city kids knew
    what sounds farm animals made. She asked the kids to put their hands up if
    they knew the correct sounds.

    "Who knows what sound a cow makes?" she asked.

    Mary put her hand up and said, "Mooooo!"

    "Very good," replied the teacher. "What sound do sheep make?"

    "Baaaa," answered Billy.

    She continued this for a while. Then she asked, "What sound does a pig
    make?"

    All the hands in the class went up. She was surprised at the response. She
    chose Little Tyrone at the back of the class. He stood up, took a deep
    breath, and screamed, "Up against the wall, mutha-f***a!"

      A group of OAPs were exchanging notes about their ailments.

      "My arm is so weak I can hardly hold this coffee cup."

      "Yes, I know. My cataracts are so bad I can't see to pour
      the coffee."

      "I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck."

      "My blood pressure pills make my dizzy."

      "I guess that's the price we pay for getting old."

      "Well, it's not all bad. We should be thankful that we can still drive!"

        There were two Jewish women (Ruth and Golda) walking along the street.
        Ruth says to Golda, "My son, Irving, is finally getting married. He
        tells me he is engaged to a wonderful girl, but... he thinks she may
        have a disease called herpes.

        Golda says to Ruth, "Do you have any idea what this herpes is, and can
        he catch it?"

        Ruth answers, "No, but I am just so thrilled to hear about Irving's
        engagement. It's past time he's settled. As far as the herpes
        goes...who knows?"

        "Well," Golda says, "I have a very fine medical dictionary at home --
        I'll look it up and call you." So, Golda goes home, looks it up, and
        calls Ruth... "Ruth, keinahurra (thank goodness!), I found it. Not to
        worry! It says herpes is a disease of the gentiles!"

          The Ridley brothers were 4 jugglers that worked the working mens clubs.
          There were not very good, and as time passed they got less and less work.
          After one long resting period they rang their agent and suggested that he
          must be able to get them some work somewhere. Eventually he rang back to
          tell them he had got them a week at a working mens club in Salford, for
          £200. Not £200 each, but between them. And the job didn't start for 3
          weeks. They reluctantly accepted this assignment, and started looking for
          a way to get 4 people to Manchester that wouldn't swallow most of the fee.
          After a couple of days Jack, the youngest and least regarded, said that
          he had got talking to this bloke Harry in a pub who was taking a narrow
          boat to Manchester and would take the four of them free, just for the
          company. Again they were reluctant, but beggars and choosers, and it meant
          they got free accommodation for a fortnight, so they agreed. So they set
          off, slowly wending their way through the waterways. At every lock the
          lock keeper would ask "What're you carrying?" and Harry would answer
          "Twenty tons of horsesh1t and the Ridley brothers." On the last morning,
          while they were eating breakfast, Harry said "I shall miss you, you've
          been good company." At this, Sydney, the senior Ridley, said "In that
          case, next time a lock keeper asks you what you're carrying, is there any
          chance we could have top billing?".

            This guy is on a rooftop about to jump off. His wife has left him, he has
            lost his job and he owes thousands of pounds to the bank.
            Just as he finishes his prayers and closes his eyes, ready to jump, Father
            Christmas taps him on the shoulder.
            "Are you OK?" asks Father Christmas.
            The man explains why he is so miserable and gets ready to jump.
            "Stop !" shouts Father Christmas. "I will grant you three wishes on the
            Understanding that you will do me a favour".
            "Would you ?" the man replies. "That would be wonderful!! Thank you, thank
            you !"
            Father Christmas promises him that:
            1. You shall go home in 1 hour and your wife will be dressed in her
            sexiest underwear, begging for forgiveness and longing for your return,
            she will have no recollection of her new boyfriend.
            2. You shall go into work tomorrow, sit at your desk and continue with
            your work. Your salary will have increased by 50%. Also, nobody will have
            any recollection of your sacking.
            3. You shall go to your bank and you will be in credit, you will have no
            outstanding bills.
            "Oh thank you, thank you !" says the man. "What is it that I can do for
            you?"
            Father Christmas tells the man to drop his pants and bend over.
            After a quite brutal rogering, Father Christmas asks the man how old he
            is.
            "36" replies the man.
            "You're a bit old to believe in Father Christmas!" laughed the jolly fat
            gay bas***d.

              Carlos the ice-cream man's van is parked at the side of the road. Lights
              flashing, music playing, a big queue of excited kids stretches down the
              street. But no sign of Carlos.

              A policeman walking down the road wonders what is going on. Where is
              Carlos? Why is he not dishing out the ice-cream.

              He goes over to the van and peers over the high counter. On the floor he
              spots Carlos, lying very still covered in chocolate sauce, strawberry
              sauce, nuts, hundreds and thousands and those little jelly bits.

              "Get back kids," he shouts. Moving away so the bemused kids cannot
              overhear him he gets on the radio to the station. "Sarge get someone down
              here quick," he stutters, "It's Carlos the ice-cream man ... he's topped
              himself"

                    A professor at the University of Swansea is giving a lecture to the
                    fresher year students on the supernatural. To get a feel for his
                    audience, in one of the biggest lecture halls on the campus, he
                    asks: "How many people here believe in ghosts?" About 90 students
                    raise their hands.
                    "Well that's a good start. Out of those of you who believe in
                    ghosts, do any of you think you've ever seen a ghost?"
                    About 40 students raise their hands.
                    "That's really good. I'm really glad you take this seriously. Now,
                    has anyone here ever talked to a ghost?"
                    15 students raise their hands.
                    "That's a great response. Has anyone here ever touched a ghost?"
                    3 students raise their hands. "That's fantastic. But let me ask you
                    one further question... Have any of you ever made love to a ghost?"
                    At this, one student way in the back raises his hand.
                    The professor is astonished.
                    He takes off his glasses, takes a step back, and says, "Son, all
                    the years I've been giving this lecture, no one has ever claimed to
                    have slept with a ghost... You've simply got to come up here and
                    tell us about your experience."
                    The student, who happens to be a local lad from Tenby, replies with
                    a nod and a grin, and begins to make his way up to the podium. As
                    he ambles slowly toward the podium the professor says,
                    "Well, tell us what it's like to have sex with a ghost."
                    The student replies,
                    "Ghost?!? Shiiiiiite... From way back there I thought you said
                    "goats."

                      There is this atheist swimming in the ocean. All of a sudden he sees this
                      shark in the water, so he starts swimming towards his boat. As he looks
                      back he sees the shark turn and head towards him.

                      His boat is a ways off and he starts swimming like crazy. He's scared to
                      death, and as he turns to see the jaws of the great white beast open
                      revealing its teeth in a horrific splendor, the atheist screams, "Oh God!
                      Save me!"

                      In an instant time is frozen and a bright light shines down from above.

                      The man is motionless in the water when he hears the voice of God say,
                      "You are an atheist. Why do you call upon me when you do not believe in
                      me?"

                      Aghast with confusion and knowing he can't lie the man replies, "Well,
                      that's true I don't believe in you, but how about the shark? Can you make
                      the shark believe in you?"

                      The Lord replies, "As you wish," and the light retracted back into the
                      heavens and the man could feel the water begin to move once again. As the
                      atheist looks back he can see the jaws of the shark start to close down on
                      him, when all of sudden the shark stops and pulls back.

                      Shocked, the man looks at the shark as the huge beast closes its eyes and
                      bows its head and says, "Thank you Lord for this food for which I am about
                      to receive ..."
