Re: Quotes and jokes!
A physicist, a mathematician and a computer scientist are discussing which is better: a wife or a mistress.
The physicist: "A mistress - you still have the freedom to experiment." The mathematician: :"A wife - you have security" The computer scientist: "Both - if I'm not with my wife, she thinks I'm with my mistress. If I'm not with my mistress, she thinks I'm with my wife. That leaves me free to be with my computer without being disturbed by anyone. |

Re: Quotes and jokes!
A SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish,
unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine. 'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.' 'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.' A student asked, ' What gender is 'computer' ? Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, a male group and a female group, then asked them to decide for themselves whether ' computer ' should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation. The men's group decided that 'computer' would definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computadora'), because ; 1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic 2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else 3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval, and 4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it. ( AND IT GETS BETTER ) The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ('el computador'), because ; 1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on 2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves; 3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem, and 4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model. |

Re: Quotes and jokes!
A hospital posted a printed notice in the nurses' lounge saying, "Remember, the first five minutes of a human's life are the most dangerous!"
Underneath, was a handwritten addition, "The last five are pretty risky too!" |

Re: Quotes and jokes!
The Agricultural College Principal was interviewing a prospective student. "Why have you chosen this career?"
"I dream of making a million dollars in farming like my father." "Your father made a million dollars in farming?" said the impressed Principal. "No," replied the student, "but he always dreamed of it." |

Survival exercise
The SAS, the Parachute Regiment and the Police decide to go on a survival weekend together to see who comes out on top. After some basic exercises the trainer tells them that their next objective is to go down into the woods and catch a rabbit, returning with it ready to skin and cook. Night falls... First up - the SAS. They don infrared goggles, drop to the ground and crawl into the woods in formation. Absolute silence for 5 minutes, followed by the unmistakable muffled "phut-phut" of their trademark silenced "double-tap". They emerge with a large rabbit shot cleanly between the eyes. "Excellent!" remarks the trainer. Next up - the Para 's. They finish their cans of lager, smear themselves with camouflage cream, fix bayonets and charge down into the woods, screaming at the top of their lungs. For the next hour the woods ring with the sound of rifle and machine-gun fire, hand grenades, mortar bombs and blood curdling war cries. Eventually they emerge, carrying the charred remains of a rabbit. "A bit messy, but you achieved the aim; well done", says the trainer. Lastly, in go the Coppers, walking slowly, hands behind backs whistling Dixon of Dock Green. For the next few hours, the silence is only broken by the occasional crackle of a walkie-talkie "Sierra Lima Whisky Tango Fanta One, suspect headed straight for you..." etc. After what seems an eternity, they emerge escorting a squirrel in handcuffs. "What the hell do you think you are doing?" asks the incredulous trainer, "Take this squirrel back and get me a rabbit like I asked you five hours ago!". So back they go. Minutes pass. Minutes turn to hours, night drags on and turns to day. The next morning, the trainer and the other teams are awakened by the police, holding the handcuffed squirrel, now covered in bruises, one eye nearly shut. "Are you taking the p*ss!!??" asks the now seriously irate trainer. The police team leader nudges the squirrel, who squeaks: "Alright, alright, I'm a f****in' rabbit!" |

Re: Quotes and jokes!
Hampshire police thought it would be a good idea to advertise on the rear of a bus. Their planning however, didn't take into account the position of the exhaust pipe!!

Re: Quotes and jokes!
BARRY MANILOW REMIX
I remember all my life Rainin' down as cold as ice Shadows of a man A face through a window Cryin' in the night The night goes into Mornin', just another day Happy people pass my way Lookin' in their eyes I see a memory I never realized How happy you made me, OBAMA Well, you came and you gave without takin' But I sent you away, OBAMA well, you kissed me and stopped me from shakin' and I need you today. OBAMA! I'm standing on the edge of time I've walked away when love was mine Caught up in a world of uphill climbin' The tears are in my mind And nothin' is rhyming, OBAMA Well, you came and you gave without takin' But I sent you away, OBAMA well, you kissed me and stopped me from shakin' And I need you today, OBAMA Yesterday's a dream I face the mornin' Cryin' on a breeze The pain is callin', OBAMA Well, you came and you gave without takin' But I sent you away, OBAMA Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shakin' And I need you today, oh OBAMA You came and you gave without takin' But I sent you away, OBAMA You kissed me and stopped me from shakin' And I need you! |

Re: Quotes and jokes!
A man takes his Rottweiler to the vet.
"My dog's cross-eyed, is there anything you can do for him? " "Well," says the vet, "let's have a look at him" So he picks the dog up and examines his eyes, then checks his teeth. Finally, he says "I'm going to have to put him down." "What? Because he's cross-eyed? " "No, because he's really heavy ----------------------------------------------------------------- "Doctor, I can't pronounce my F's, T's and H's." "Well you can't say fairer than that then" ------------------------------------------------------------------ Two elephants walk off a cliff...... boom boom! ----------------------------------------------------------------- So I went to the dentist. He said "Say Aaah." I said "Why?" He said "My dog's died.'" ------------------------------------------------------------------ "So I got home, and the phone was ringing. I picked it up, and said 'Who's speaking please?' And a voice said 'You are.'" ------------------------------------------------------------------ So I rang up my local swimming baths. I said 'Is that the local swimming baths?' He said 'It depends where you're calling from.'" ----------------------------------------------------------------- " So I rang up a local building firm, I said 'I want a skip outside my house.' He said 'I'm not stopping you.' ------------------------------------------------------------------ Apparently, 1 in 5 people in the world are Chinese. And there are 5 people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother Colin. Or my younger brother Ho-Cha-Chu. But I think it's Colin. |

Re: Quotes and jokes!
A man appeared before St Peter at the Pearly Gates:
"Have you ever done anything of particular merit?" St. Peter asked. "Well, I can think of one thing," the man offered. "Once, upon a trip to the Black Hills out in South Dakota, I came upon a gang of high-testosterone bikers who were threatening a young woman. I directed them to leave her alone, but they wouldn't listen. So, I approached the largest and most heavily tattooed biker and smacked him on the head, kicked his bike over, ripped out his nose ring, and threw it on the ground. I yelled, "Now, back off!! Or you'll answer to me!" St. Peter was impressed: "When did this happen?" "Just a couple minutes ago." |
