Bush Lays Off Congress; will Outsource Lawmaking to India
By Jay Slupesky, Washington
Citing the growing cost of running the Federal government and the need
to cut costs in order to reduce the budget deficit, President Bush
announced today that he was laying off all 535 members of Congress and
transferring lawmaking operations to a legislative support center in
Bangalore, India.
"Hey, outsourcing is the way to go these days," said Bush at an
impromptu news conference where he announced the decision, adding, "The
American people want to see less government waste. Since every one of
those ex-Congressmen had a salary of $150,000, this move will cut our
costs by over $80 million per year, and that's not even counting what
we'll save on health insurance and retirement plans."
Sources indicate that the Indian replacements will be paid approximately
$250 per month. However, the changes won't take effect immediately, Bush
said.
"Members of congress could remain on the job an extra 30 days if they
agree to train their replacements. If you think about it, this really
frees congress up. They now have the opportunity to seek better jobs
elsewhere in the economy. It really is a win-win for both countries", he
went on to say.
The outcry from the newly laid-off Senators and Representatives was
swift. Ex-California Senator Diane Feinstein said, "This is absolutely
outrageous. How can a bunch of replacements over in India run Congress?
What do they know about filibusters and committee hearings?" As she was
being escorted out of the Hart Senate Office Building by U.S. Capitol
Police officers, Feinstein complained that the newly-terminated
lawmakers those who chose not to train their replacements were only
given ten minutes to clean out their desks and leave the building.
"I think it's a great idea," said Vice President Dick Cheney, speaking
from a secure undisclosed location. "The American people were fed up
with that expensive do-nothing Congress which didn't always give the
President everything he asked for. Our new Indian replacements will be
much more cooperative to the President, which is what we all want."
Asked whether the outsourcing may be unconstitutional, Cheney noted,
"That's up to the Supreme Court to decide, but as you know, they usually
see things our way."
The new members of Congress seem thrilled with the attention they are
receiving. Speaking from the offices of All-India Legislative Support
Centre Ltd. in Bangalore, new Mississippi Senator Ramchandra Shekar
Gupta told reporters, "The Indian people are very hard working and we
will do our best as U.S. Congressmen and Congresswomen. And we are going
to have some Fun too. Just think: we have $2 trillion of the American
taxpayers' money to spend!"
A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot. One day
a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot.
The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in
all the activity going on next door and spent much of each day
observing the workers.
Eventually the construction crew, all of them more or less
gems-in-the-rough, adopted her as a kind of project mascot. They
chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and
lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make
her feel important. At the end of the first week they even presented
her with a pay envelope containing a couple of dollars. The little
girl took this home to her mother who said all the appropriate words
of admiration and suggested that they take the two dollar "pay" she
had received to the bank the next day to start a savings account.
When they got to the bank the teller was equally impressed and asked
the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check at such a
young age. The little girl proudly replied, "I worked last week with
the crew building the house next door to us." "My goodness gracious,"
said the teller, "and will you be working on the house again this
week, too?"
The little girl replied, "I will if those assholes at Home Depot ever
delivers the fucking sheet rock ..."

Remember the book "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus"? Well, here's a prime example offered by an English professor at an American university.
"Today we will experiment with a new form called the tandem story. The process is simple. Each person will pair off with the person sitting to his or her immediate right. One of you will then write the first paragraph of a short story. The partner will read the first paragraph and then add another paragraph to the story. The first person will then add a third paragraph, and so on back and forth. Remember to re-read what has been written each time in order to keep the story coherent. There is to be absolutely NO talking and anything you wish to say must be written on the paper. The story is over when both agree a conclusion has been reached."
The following was actually
turned in by two of my English students:
Rebecca -last name deleted, and Gary - last name deleted.
--------------------------------------------------------------
STORY:
(first paragraph by Rebecca): At first, Laurie couldn't decide which kind of tea she wanted. The chamomile, which used to be her favorite for lazy evenings at home, now reminded her too much of Carl, who once said, in happier times, that he liked chamomile. But she felt she must now, at all costs, keep her mind off Carl. His possessiveness was suffocating, and if she thought about him too much her asthma started acting up again. So chamomile was out of the question.
(second paragraph by Gary): Meanwhile, Advance Sergeant Carl Harris, leader of the attack squadron now in orbit over Skylon 4, had more important things to think about than the neuroses of an air-headed asthmatic bimbo named Laurie with whom he had spent one sweaty night over a year ago. "A.S. Harris to Geostation 17", he said into his transgalactic communicator. "Polar orbit established. No sign of resistance so far..." But before he could sign off, a bluish particle beam flashed out of nowhere and blasted a hole through his ship's cargo bay. The jolt from the direct hit sent him flying out of his seat and across the cockpit.
(Rebecca): He bumped his head and died almost immediately but not before he felt one last pang of regret for psychically brutalizing the one woman who had ever had feelings for him. Soon afterwards, Earth stopped its pointless hostilities towards the peaceful farmers of Skylon 4. "Congress Passes Law Permanently Abolishing War and Space Travel," Laurie read in her newspaper one morning. The news simultaneously excited her and bored her. She stared out the window, dreaming of her youth, when the days had passed unhurriedly and carefree, with no newspapers to read, no television to distract her from her sense of innocent wonder at all the beautiful things around her. "Why must one lose one's innocence to become a woman?" she pondered wistfully.
(Gary): Little did she know, but she had less than 10 seconds to live. Thousands of miles above the city, the Anu'udrian mothership launched the first of its lithium fusion missiles. The dim-witted wimpy peaceniks who pushed the Unilateral Aerospace Disarmament Treaty through the congress had left Earth a defenseless target for the hostile alien empires who were determined to destroy the human race. Within two hours after the passage of the treaty the Anu'udrian ships were on course for Earth, carrying enough firepower to pulverize the entire planet. With no one to stop them, they swiftly initiated their diabolical plan. The lithium fusion missile entered the atmosphere unimpeded. The President, in his top-secret Mobile submarine headquarters on the ocean floor off the coast of Guam, felt the inconceivably massive explosion, which vaporized poor, stupid, Laurie and 85 million other Americans. The President slammed his fist on the conference table. "We can't allow this! I'm going to veto that treaty! Let's blow 'em out of the sky!"
(Rebecca): This is absurd. I refuse to continue this mockery of literature. My writing partner is a violent, chauvinistic semi-literate adolescent.
(Gary): Yeah? Well, you're a self-centered tedious neurotic whose attempts at writing are the literary equivalent of Valium. "Oh shall I have chamomile tea? Or shall I have some other sort of FU**ING TEA??? Oh no, I'm such an air headed bimbo who reads too many Danielle Steele novels."
(Rebecca): A**hole.
(Gary): Bit**.
(Rebecca): Wanker.
(Gary): slut.
(Rebecca): Get fu**ed.
(Gary): Eat sh**.
(Rebecca): FU** YOU - YOU NEANDERTHAL!!!
(Gary): Go drink some tea - wh*re.
(teacher):
A+ - I really liked this one!

On a chain of beautiful deserted islands in the middle of nowhere, the
following people are stranded:
- Two Italian men and one Italian woman
- Two French men and one French woman
- Two German men and one German woman
- Two Greek men and one Greek woman
- Two English men and one English woman
- Two Bulgarian men and one Bulgarian woman
- Two Japanese men and one Japanese woman
- Two Chinese men and one Chinese woman
- Two Irish men and one Irish woman
- Two American men and one American woman
One month later, on these absolutely stunning deserted islands in the middle
of nowhere, the following things have occurred:
* One Italian man killed the other Italian man for the Italian woman.
* The two French men and the French woman are living happily together in a
ménage à trois.
* The two German men have a strict weekly schedule of alternating visits with
the German woman.
* The two Greek men are sleeping with each other and the Greek woman is cl
eaning and cooking for them.
* The two English men are waiting for someone to introduce them to the
English woman.
* The two Bulgarian men took one look at the Bulgarian woman and started
swimming to another island.
* The two Japanese have faxed Tokyo and are awaiting instructions.
* The two Chinese men have set up a pharmacy/liquor store/restaurant/laundry,
and have gotten the woman pregnant in order to supply employees for their
store.
* The two Irish men divided the island into North and South and set up a
distillery. They do not remember if sex is in the picture because it gets
somewhat foggy after a few liters of coconut whiskey. However, they're
satisfied because the English aren't having any fun.
* The two American men are contemplating suicide, because the American woman
will not shut up and complains relentlessly about her body, the true nature
of feminism, what the sun is doing to her skin, how she can do anything they
can do, the necessity of fulfillment, the equal division of household chores,
how sand and palm trees make her look fat, how her last boyfriend respected
her opinion and treated her nicer than they do, and how her relationship with
her mother is the root cause of all her problems, and why didn't they bring a
goddamn cell phone so they could call 911 and get them all rescued off this
godforsaken deserted island in the middle of fucking nowhere so she can get
her nails done and go shopping.

Nick the Dragon Slayer was an official in King Arthur's court. He had a long-standing obsession to nuzzle the beautiful Queen's voluptuous
breasts, but he knew the penalty for this would be death.
One day he revealed his secret desire to his colleague, Horatio the
Physician, who was the King's chief doctor. Horatio the Physician exclaimed
that he could arrange for Nick the Dragon Slayer to satisfy his desire, but
it would cost him 1,000 gold coins to arrange it. Without pause, Nick the
Dragon Slayer readily agreed to the scheme.
The next day, Horatio the Physician made a batch of itching powder and
poured a little bit into the Queen's brassiere while she bathed.
Soon after she dressed, the itching commenced and grew intense.
Upon being summoned to the Royal Chambers to address this incident, Horatio
the Physician informed the King and Queen that only a special saliva, if
applied for four hours, would cure this type of itch, and that tests had
shown that only the saliva of Nick Dragon Slayer would work as the antidote
to Cure the itch.
The King quickly summoned Nick the Dragon Slayer. Horatio the Physician then
slipped Nick the Dragon Slayer the antidote for the itching powder, which he
quickly put it into his mouth, and for the next four hours, Nick worked
passionately on the Queen's voluptuous and magnificent breasts.
The Queen's itching was eventually relieved, and Nick the Dragon Slayer left
satisfied and touted as a hero.
Upon returning to his chamber, Nick the Dragon Slayer found Horatio the
Physician demanding his payment of 1,000 gold coins.
With his obsession now satisfied, Nick the Dragon Slayer couldn't have
cared less, and knowing that Horatio the Physician could never report this
matter to the King and shooed him away with no payment made.
The next day, Horatio the Physician slipped a massive dose of the same
itching powder into the King's loincloth. The King quickly summoned Nick the Dragon Slayer...........................

you're naive enough to believe that as a man.

A woman was walking along the beach when she stumbled upon a Genie's lamp.
She picked it up and rubbed it, and
lo-and-behold a Genie appeared. The amazed woman asked if she got three
wishes.
The Genie said, "Nope... due to inflation, constant downsizing, low wages
in third-world countries, and fierce global competition, I can only grant
you one wish. So...what'll it be?"
The woman didn't hesitate. She said, "I want peace in the Middle East. See this map? I want these countries to stop fighting with each other."
The Genie looked at the map and exclaimed,
"Gadzooks, lady! These countries have been at war for thousands of years.
I'm good, but not THAT good! I don't think it can be done. Make another
wish."
The woman thought for a minute and said, "Well, I've never been able to
find the right man. You know, one that's considerate and fun, likes to cook and
helps with the housecleaning, is good in bed and gets along with my family,
doesn't watch sports all the time, and is faithful. That's what I
wish for. A good mate."
The Genie let out a long sigh and said, "Let me see that fuckin' map
again!"

It has come to our attention from several emergency rooms that many EMS narratives have taken a decidedly creative direction lately. Effective immediately, all members are to refrain from using slang and abbreviations to describe patients, such as the following:
Cardiac patients should not be referred to with MUH (messed up heart), PBS (pretty bad shape), PCL (pre-code looking) or HIBGIA (had it before, got it again).
Stroke patients are NOT "Charlie Carrots." Nor are rescuers to use CCFCCP (Coo Coo for Cocoa Puffs) to describe their mental state.
Trauma patients are not FDGB (fall down, go boom), TBC (total body crunch) or "hamburger helper". Similarly, descriptions of a car crash do not have to include phrases like "negative vehicle to vehicle interface" or "terminal deceleration syndrome."
HAZMAT teams are highly trained professionals, not "glow worms."
Persons with altered mental states as a result of drug use are not considered "pharmaceutically gifted."
Gunshot wounds to the head are not "trans-occipital implants."
The homeless are not "urban outdoorsmen", nor is endotracheal intubation referred to as a "PVC Challenge".
And finally, do not refer to recently deceased persons as being "paws up," ART (assuming room temperature), or CTD (circling the drain).
know you will all join me in respecting the cultural diversity of our patients to include their medical orientations in creating proper, narratives and log entries.
Sincerely, Director of Human Resources

Customer: Hi. How much is your paint?
Clerk: Well, sir, that all depends on quite a lot of things.
Customer: Can you give me a guess? Is there an average price?
Clerk: Our lowest price is $12 a gallon, and we have 60 different prices up to $200 a gallon.
Customer: What's the difference in the paint?
Clerk: Oh, there isn't any difference; it's all the same paint.
Customer: Well, then I'd like some of that $12 paint.
Clerk: When do you intend to use the paint?
Customer: I want to paint tomorrow. It's my day off.
Clerk: Sir, the paint for tomorrow is the $200 paint.
Customer: When would I have to paint to get the $12 paint?
Clerk: You would have to start very late at night in about 3 weeks. But you will have to agree to start painting before Friday of that week and continue painting until at least Sunday.
Customer: You've got to be *&% #¿* kidding!
Clerk: I'll check and see if we have any paint available.
Customer: You have shelves FULL of paint! I can see it!
Clerk: But it doesn't mean that we have paint available. We sell only a certain number of gallons on any given weekend. Oh, and by the way, the price per gallon just went to $16. We don't have any more $12 paint.
Customer: The price went up as we were talking?
Clerk: Yes, sir. We change the prices and rules hundreds of times a day, and since you haven't actually walked out of the store with your paint yet, we just decided to change. I suggest you purchase your paint as soon as possible. How many gallons do you want?
Customer: Well, maybe five gallons. Make that six, so I'll have enough.
Clerk: Oh no, sir, you can't do that. If you buy paint and don't use it, there are penalties and possible confiscation of the paint you already have.
Customer: WHAT?
Clerk: We can sell enough paint to do your kitchen, bathroom, hall and north bedroom, but if you stop painting before you do the bedroom, you will lose your remaining gallons of paint.
Customer: What does it matter whether I use all the paint? I already paid you for it!
Clerk: We make plans based upon the idea that all our paint is used, every drop. If you don't, it causes us all sorts of problems.
Customer: This is crazy!! I suppose something terrible happens if I don't keep painting until after Saturday night!
Clerk: Oh yes! Every gallon you bought automatically becomes the $200 paint.
Customer: But what are all these, "Paint on sale from $10 a liter" signs?
Clerk: Well that's for our budget paint. It only comes in half-gallons. One $5 half-gallon will do half a room. The second half-gallon to complete the room is $20. None of the cans have labels, some are empty and there are no refunds, even on the empty cans.
Customer: To hell with this! I'll buy what I need somewhere else!
Clerk: I don't think so, sir. You may be able to buy paint for your bathroom and bedrooms, and your kitchen and dining room from someone else, but you won't be able to paint your connecting hall and stairway from anyone but us. And I should point out, sir, that if you paint in only one direction, it will be $300 a gallon.
Customer: I thought your most expensive paint was $200!
Clerk: That's if you paint around the room to the point at which you started. A hallway is different.
Customer: And if I buy $200 paint for the hall, but only paint in one direction, you'll confiscate the remaining paint.
Clerk: No, we'll charge you an extra use fee plus the difference on your next gallon of paint. But I believe you're getting it now, sir.
Customer: You're insane!
Clerk: Thanks for painting with Delta!

Day 1. Just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary without much to celebrate. When it came time to re-enact our wedding night, he locked himself in the bathroom and cried.
Day 2. Today, he says he has a big secret to tell me. He's impotent, he says, and he wants me to be the first to know. Why doesn't he tell me something I don't know! I mean, he actually thinks I haven't noticed.
Day 3. This marriage is in trouble. A woman has needs. Yesterday, I saw a picture of Nelson's Column and burst into tears.
Day 4. A miracle has happened! There's a new drug on the market that will fix his 'problem.' It's called Viagra. I told him that if he takes Viagra things will be just like they were on our wedding night. I think this will work. I replaced his Prozac with the Viagra, hoping to lift something other than his mood.
Day 5. What absolute bliss!!.
Day 6. Isn't life wonderful but it's difficult to write while he's doing that.
Day 7. This Viagra thing has gone to his head. No pun intended! Yesterday, at Burger King, the manager asked me if I'd like a Whopper. He thought they were talking about him. But I have To admit it's very nice - I don't think I've ever been so happy.
Day 8. I think he took too many over the weekend. Yesterday, instead of mowing the lawn, he was using his new friend as a weed whacker. I'm also getting a bit sore down there.
Day 9. No time to write. He might catch me.
Day 10. Okay, I admit it. I'm hiding. I mean, a girl can only take so much. And to make matters worse, he's washing the Viagra down with neat whisky! What am I going to do? I feel tacky all over....
Day 11. I'm basically being screwed to death. It's like living with a Black and Decker drill. I woke up this morning hot-glued to the bed. Even my armpits hurt. He's a complete pig.
Day 12. I wish he was gay. I've stopped wearing make-up, cleaning my teeth or even washing but he still keeps coming after me! even yawning has become dangerous.
Day 13. Every time I shut my eyes, there's a sneak attack! It's like going to bed with a scud missile. I can hardly walk and if he tries that "Oops, sorry" thing again, I'll kill the bastard.
Day 14. I've done everything to turn him off. Nothing is working. I even started dressing like a nun but this just seems to make him hornier. Help me.
Day 15. I think I'll have to kill him. I'm starting to stick to everything I sit on. The cat and dog won't go near him and our friends don't come over any more. Last night I told him to go and f**k himself and he did.
Day 16. The bastard has started to complain about headaches. I hope the bloody thing explodes. I did suggest he might try stopping the Viagra and going back on Prozac.
Day 17. Switched the pills but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. Christ, here he comes again.
Day 18. He's back on Prozac. The lazy sod just sits there in
front of the TV all day with that remote control in his hand and expects me to
do everything for him. What absolute bliss!!

I
was having lunch with one of my favorite clients last week and the
conversation turned to the government's recent round of tax cuts.
"I'm
opposed to those tax cuts," the retired college instructor declared,
"because they benefit the rich. The rich get much more money back than
ordinary taxpayers like you and I and that's not fair."
"But the rich pay more in the first place," I argued, "so it
stands to
reason that they'd get more money back." I could tell that my friend was
unimpressed by this meager argument. Even college instructors are a
prisoner of the myth that the "rich" somehow get a free ride..
Nothing
could be further from the truth. Let's put tax cuts in terms everyone
can understand.
Suppose that everyday 10 men go to dinner. The bill for all ten comes to
$100. If it was paid the way we pay our taxes, the first four men would
pay nothing; the fifth would pay $1; the sixth would pay $3; the seventh
$7; the eighth $12; the ninth $18. The tenth man (the richest) would pay
$59.
The 10 men ate dinner in the restaurant every day and seemed quite happy
with the arrangement until the owner threw them a curve. Since you are
all such good customers, he said, I'm going to reduce the cost of your
daily meal by $20. Now dinner for the 10 only costs $80.
The first four are unaffected. They still eat for free. Can you figure
out how to divvy up the $20 savings among the remaining six so that
everyone gets his fair share? The men realize that $20 divided by 6 is
$3.33, but if they subtract that from everybody's share, then the fifth
man and the sixth man would end up being paid to eat their meal.
The restaurant owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each
man's bill by roughly the same amount and he proceeded to work out the
amounts each should pay.
And so the fifth man paid nothing, the sixth pitched in $2, the seventh
paid $5, the eighth paid $9, the ninth paid $12, leaving the tenth man
with a bill of $52 instead of $59. Outside the restaurant, the men began
to compare their savings. "I only got a dollar out the $20," declared
the sixth man pointing to the tenth, "and he got $7!"
>"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. I only saved a
dollar,
too. It's unfair that he got seven times more than me! "That's true,"
shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $7 back when I got only
$2?
The wealthy get all the breaks." "Wait a minute," yelled the
first four
men in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits
the
poor."
The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up. The next night he
didn't show up for dinner, so the nine sat down and ate without him.
But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something
important. They were $52 short!
And that, boys and girls and college instructors, is how the tax system
works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a
tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and
they just may not show up at the table anymore.
There are lots of good restaurants in Switzerland
and the Caribbean.

Dad walks into a market with his young son. The
kid is holding a quarter.
Suddenly, the boy starts choking, going blue in the
face. The dad realizes the boy has swallowed the quarter
and starts panicking, shouting for help.
A well dressed, attractive, but serious looking woman in
a blue business suit is sitting at a coffee bar in the
market reading her newspaper and sipping a cup of
coffee. At the sound of the commotion, she looks up,
puts her coffee cup down on the saucer, neatly folds the
newspaper and places it on the counter, gets up from her seat
and makes her way, unhurried, across the market.
Reaching the boy, the woman carefully takes hold of the
boy's testicles and starts to squeeze, gently at first and
then ever more firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses
violently and coughs up the quarter, which the woman deftly
catches in her free hand. Releasing the boy, the woman hands
the coin to the father and walks back to her seat in the
coffee bar without saying a word.
As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no
lasting ill effects, the father rushes over to the woman
and starts thanking her saying, "I've never seen anybody
do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a
doctor?"
"No," the woman replies... "Divorce Attorney."

Andy Rooney On Prisons: Did you know that it costs forty-thousand dollars a year to house each prisoner? Jeez, for forty-thousand bucks a piece I'll take a few prisoners into my house. I live in Los Angeles. I already have bars on the windows. I don't think we should give free room and board to criminals. I think they should have to run twelve hours a day on a treadmill and generate electricity. And if they don't want to run, they can rest in the chair that's hooked up to the generator.
Andy Rooney On Ads In Bills: Have you ever noticed that they put advertisements in with your bills now? Like bills aren't distasteful enough, they have to stuff junk mail in there with them. I get back at them. I put garbage in with my check when I mail it in. Coffee grinds, banana peels...I write, "Could you throw this away for me? Thank You."
Andy Rooney On Fabric Softener: My wife uses fabric softener. I never knew what that stuff was for. Then I noticed women coming up to me (sniff) 'Married' (walk off). That's how they mark their territory. You can take off the ring, but it's hard to get that April fresh scent out of your clothes.
Andy Rooney On Morning Differences: Men and women are different in the morning. The men wake up aroused in the morning. We can't help it. We just wake up and we want you. And the women are thinking, 'How can he want me the way I look in the morning?' It's because we can't see you. We have no blood anywhere near our optic nerve.
Andy Rooney On Phone-In-Polls: You know those shows where people call in and vote on different issues? Did you ever notice there's always like 18% that say "I don't know." It costs 90 cents to call up and vote and they're voting "I don't know." "Honey, I feel very strongly about this. Give me the phone." Says Into Phone) "I DON'T KNOW!" (Hangs up looking proud.) "Sometimes you have to stand up for what you believe you're not sure about." This guy probably calls up phone sex girls for $2.95 to say "I'm not in the mood".
Andy Rooney On Cripes: My wife's from the Midwest. Very nice people there. Very wholesome. They use words like 'Cripes'. 'For Cripe's sake.' Who would that be, Jesus Cripe's? The son of 'Gosh' of the church of 'Holy Moly'? I'm not making fun of it. You think I wanna burn in 'Heck'?
Andy Rooney On Grandma: My grandmother has a bumper sticker on her car that says, 'Sexy Senior Citizen.' You don't want to think of your grandmother that way, do you? Out entering wet shawl contests. Makes you wonder where she got that dollar she gave you for your birthday.
Andy Rooney On Answering Machines: Did you ever hear one of
these corny, positive messages on someone's answering machine? "Hi, it's a
great day and I'm out enjoying it right now. I hope you are too. The thought for
the day is 'share the love. " Beep." "Uh, yeah...this is the VD
clinic calling.... Speaking of being positive, your test results are back. Stop
sharing the love."

Before moving to the South, there are a few things you should know that will help you adapt to the difference in lifestyles
The North has sun-dried toe-mah-toes .. The South has 'mater samiches.
The North has coffee houses .. The South has Waffle Houses.
The North has dating services .. The South has family reunions.
The North has switchblade knives .. The South has Lee Press-on Nails.
The North has double last names .. The South has double first names.
The North has Ted Kennedy .. The South has Jesse Helms.
The North has an ambulance .. The South has an amblance.
The North has Cream of Wheat .. The South has grits.
The North has green salads .. The South has collard greens.
The North has lobsters .. The South has crawdads.
If you run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in a four- wheel drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them; just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.
Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store. ...don't buy food at this store.
Remember, "y'all" is singular, "all y'all" is plural, and "all y'all's" is plural possessive.
Get used to hearing 'You ain't from round here, are ya?'
The first Southern expression to creep into a transplanted Northerner's vocabulary is the adjective 'big ol' truck or 'big ol' boy'. Most Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of them are in denial about it.
Be advised that 'He needed killin' is a valid defense here.
If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this," you should stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he'll ever say.
If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not. You just have to go there.
Do not be surprised to find that 10-year-olds own their own shotguns, they are proficient marksmen, and their mammas taught them how to aim.
AND REMEMBER: If you do settle in the South and bear children,
don't think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had
kittens in the oven, we wouldn't call them biscuits.

An Irishman who had a little too much to drink is driving home from the city one night and, of course, his car is weaving violently all over the road. A cop pulls him over. "So," says the cop to the driver, "where have ya been?" "Why, I've been to the pub of course," slurs the drunk. "Well," says the cop, "it looks like you've had quite a few to drink this evening." "I did all right," the drunk says with a smile. "Did you know," says the cop, standing straight and folding his arms across his chest, "that a few intersections back, your wife fell out of your car?" "Oh, thank heavens," sighs the drunk. "For a minute there, I thought I'd gone deaf." ********************************* Into a Belfast pub comes Paddy Murphy, looking like he'd just been run over by a train. His arm is in a sling, his nose is broken, his face is cut and bruised and he's walking with a limp. "What happened to you?" asks Sean, the bartender. "Jamie O'Conner and me had a fight," says Paddy. "That little guy, O'Conner," says Sean, "he couldn't do that to you, he must have had something in his hand." "That he did," says Paddy, "a shovel is what he had, and a terrible lickin' he gave me with it." "Well," says Sean, "you should have defended yourself, didn't you have something in your hand?" "That I did," said Paddy. "Mrs. O'Conner's left breast, and a thing of beauty it was, but useless in a fight." ************************************** Brenda O'Malley is home making dinner, as usual, when Tim Finnegan arrives at her door. "Brenda, may I come in?" he asks. "I've somethin' to tell ya." "Of course you can come in, you're always welcome, Tim. But where's my husband?" "That's what I'm here to be tellin' ya, Brenda. There was an accident down at the Guinness brewery..." "Oh, God no!" cries Brenda. "Please don't tell me..." "I must, Brenda. Your husband Shamus is dead and gone. I'm sorry." Finally, she looked up at Tim. "How did it happen, Tim?" "It was terrible, Brenda. He fell into a vat of Guinness Stout and drowned." "Oh my dear Jesus! But you must tell me true, Tim. Did he at least go quickly?" "Well, no Brenda... no. Fact is, he got out three times to pee." ******************************************* Mary Clancy goes up to Father O'Grady after his Sunday morning service, and she's in tears.

An Irish girl went to London to work as a secretary and began sending home
money and gifts to her parents. After a few years they asked her to come home
for a visit, as her father was getting frail and elderly. She pulled up to the
family home in a Rolls Royce and stepped out wearing furs and diamonds. As she
walked into the house her father said "Hmmm -they seem to be paying
secretaries awfully well in London." The girl took his hands and said
"Dad - I've been meaning to tell you something for years but I didn't want
to put it in a letter. I can't hide it from you any longer. I've become a
prostitute." Her father gasped, put his hand on his heart and keeled over.
The doctor was called but the old man had clearly lost the will to live. He was
put to bed and the priest was called. As the priest began to administer Extreme
Unction, with the mother and daughter weeping and wailing, the old man muttered
weakly "I'm a goner -- killed by me own daughter! Killed by the shame
of what you've become!" "Please forgive me", his daughter sobbed,
"I only wanted to have nice things. I wanted to be able to send you money
and the only way I could do it was by becoming a prostitute." Brushing the
priest aside, the old man sat bolt upright in bed, smiling. "Did you say
prostitute? I thought you said Protestant."

After much arguing and deliberation, historians this week have come up with a phrase to describe the Clinton Era. It will be called: SEX BETWEEN THE BUSHES. The Center for Disease Control in Atlanta announced that Clinton has proven that you can get sex from Aides. Gennifer Flowers was asked if her relationship with Clinton was anything like Monica Lewinski's. She replied, "Close, but no cigar." The FBI has coined a technical term for the stains found on Monica's dress: "Presidue." Clinton now recruits interns from only four colleges: Moorhead, Oral Roberts, Ball State and Brigham Young. Did you know that Clinton had asked to change the Democratic emblem from a donkey to a condom? It represents inflation, halts production, and gives you a false sense of security while you are being screwed. Arkansas is very proud of Bill Clinton. All these women coming forward, and not one is his sister! Finally, Hillary Clinton recently went to a fortuneteller who intoned, "Prepare to become a widow. Your husband will soon suffer a violent death!" Hillary took a deep breath and asked, "Will I be acquitted?" [TOP]
A blonde walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer. She says she's going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.
The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for the loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce. The car is parked on the street in front of the bank, she has the title and everything checks out. The bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the blonde for using a $250,000 Rolls as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then proceeds to drive the Rolls into the bank's underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks later, the blonde returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.
The loan officer says, "Miss, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"
The blond replies....."Where else in New York City can I park my car for
two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?"

A lady goes into a bar in TEXAS and sees a cowboy with his feet propped up on a table. He has the biggest feet she's ever seen.
The woman asks the cowboy "Is it true what they say about men with big feet?"
The cowboy says, "Sure is, why don't you come back to my place and let me prove it?"
The woman says, "Why not" and spends the night with him. The next morning she gives the cowboy $100.
Blushing, he says, "I'm flattered. No one has ever paid me for my services before."
The woman replies, "Well, don't be. Take this money and buy
yourself some cowboy boots that fit."

Start with a cage containing five monkeys. Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the banana. As soon as he touches the stairs, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water.
After a while, another monkey makes an attempt with the same result - all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.
Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one. The new monkey sees the banana and wants to climb the stairs. To his surprise and horror, all of the other monkeys attack him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted.
Next, remove another of the original five monkeys and replace it with a new one. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment with enthusiasm!
Likewise, replace a third original monkey with a new one, then a fourth, then the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked.
Most of the monkeys that are beating him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs or why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey.
After replacing all the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, no monkey ever again approaches the stairs to try for the banana. Why not? Because as far as they know that's the way it's always been done around here.
And that, my friends, is how company policy begins.

It was the first day of school and a new student named Suzuki, the son of a Japanese businessman, entered the fourth grade. The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American history. Who said "Give me Liberty, or give me Death?" She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Suzuki, who had his hand up.
"Patrick Henry, 1775."
He said. "Very good! Who said 'Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth'"? Again, no response except from Suzuki:
"Abraham Lincoln, 1863.", said Suzuki
The teacher snapped at the class, "Class, you should be ashamed. Suzuki, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do." She heard a loud whisper: "Screw the Japs." "Who said that?" she demanded. Suzuki put his hand up.
"Lee Iacocca, 1982."
At that point, a student in the back said, "I'm gonna puke." The teacher glares and asks "All right! Now, who said that?" Again, Suzuki says,
"George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991."
Now furious, another student yells, "Oh yeah? Suck this!" Suzuki jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher,
"Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!"
Now with almost a mob hysteria someone said, "You little shit. If you say anything else, I'll kill you." Suzuki frantically yells at the top of his voice,
"Gary Condit to Chandra Levy 2001."
The teacher fainted. And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, "Oh shit, we're in BIG trouble! ..and Suzuki said,
"The Taliban! 2001."

Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him, but was moved by Arthur's youth and ideals. So the monarch offered him freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer; if, after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death. The question: What do women really want? Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, and, to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end. He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everybody: the princess, the prostitutes, the priests, the wise men, the court jester. He spoke with everyone, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer. Many people advised him to consult the old witch--only she would know the answer. The price would be high; the witch was famous throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged. The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no alternative but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer his question, but he'd have to accept her price first. The old witch wanted to marry Gawain, the most noble of the Knights of the Round Table and Arthur's closest friend! Young Arthur was horrified; she was hunchbacked and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene noises... etc. He had never encountered such a repugnant creature. He refused to force his friend to marry her and have to endure such a burden. Gawain, upon learning of the proposal, spoke with Arthur. He told him that nothing was too big a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life and the preservation of the Round Table. Hence, their wedding was proclaimed, and the witch answered Arthur's question thus: What a woman really wants is to be in charge of her own life. Everyone instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth and that Arthur's life would be spared. And so it was. The neighboring monarch granted Arthur total freedom. What a wedding Gawain and the witch had! Arthur was torn between relief and anguish. Gawain was proper as always, gentle and courteous. The old witch put her worst manners on display, and generally made everyone very uncomfortable. The hour approached. Gawain, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But what a sight awaited him! The most beautiful woman he'd ever seen lay before him! The astounded Gawain asked what had happened. The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she'd appeared as a witch, she would henceforth be her horrible, deformed self half the time, and the other half, she would be her beautiful maiden self. Which would he want her to be during the day, and which during the night? What a cruel question! Gawain pondered his predicament. During the day, a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at night, in the privacy of his home, an old witch?
