An elderly gentleman walks into an upscale cocktail lounge.   He is in his mid-eighties, very well-dressed, hair well-groomed, great looking suit, flower in his lapel and smelling slightly of an expensive after shave.  He presents a very nice image.

Seated at the bar is a classy looking lady in her mid-seventies.

The sharp old gentleman walks over and sits alongside her. He orders a drink and takes a sip.  He slowly turns to the lady and says: "So, tell me..... do I come here often?"

A Texas attorney, realizing he was on the verge of unleashing a stupid question, interrupted himself and said, "Your Honor, I'd like to strike the next question."  

Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica?  Have you ever wondered where they all go?

 
Wonder no more!  It is a well-established fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird and lives an extremely ordered and complex life within a well-organized community.  Penguins are extremely committed to their family and will mate for life, as well as maintain a form of compassionate contact with their offspring and they will remain with their original colony throughout the remainder of their life.

If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of their family and the social circle in their colony have been known to dig holes in the ice, using only their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into it.  The dead penguin is then buried by packing the ice back in the hole.  The final phase of the burial ceremony occurs when the male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing: 

"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."

John Smith lived in Staten Island, New York and worked in Manhattan. He had to take the ferryboat home every night. One evening, he got down to the ferry and found there was a wait for the next boat, so John decided to stop at a nearby tavern. Before long he was feeling no pain. When he got back to the ferry slip, the ferryboat was just eight feet from the dock. Smith, afraid of missing this one and being late for dinner, took a running leap and landed right on the deck of the boat.

"How did you like that jump, buddy?" said a proud John to a deck hand.

"It was great," said the sailor. "But why didn't you wait? We were just pulling in!"

A young female clerk, with a penchant for wearing very short skirts, was hired by the owner of a small general store. One day, a young man entered the store and glanced at the loaves of bread behind the counter.

"I'd like some raisin bread, please," he said to the clerk.

She climbed up a ladder to reach the raisin bread which was located on the uppermost shelf, providing the man standing beneath her with an excellent view.

As she retrieved the bread, a small group of male customers had gathered around the young man, and all were looking in the same direction. Pretty soon, each one of them was asking for raisin bread, just so they could see the clerk climb up and down the ladder.

After several trips, the clerk had become tired and irritated. Stopping and fuming at the top of the ladder, she glared down at the men below and noticed an elderly man standing among them.

"Do you want a loaf of raisin bread too?" she yelled.

"No,” the old man croaked.

So the young lady descended the ladder and asked the elderly man what he wanted.

He responded, “I’d like two loaves of raisin bread please.” 

A nun, badly needing to use the restroom, walked into a local Hooters restaurant.

The place was hopping with music and loud conversation and every once in a while the lights would turn off. Each time the lights would go out, the place would erupt into cheers. However, when the revelers saw the nun, the room went dead silent.

She walked up to the bartender, and asked, "May I please use the restroom?"

The bartender replied, "OK, but I should warn you that there is a statue of a naked man in there wearing only a fig leaf."

"Well, in that case, I'll just look the other way," said the nun.

So, the bartender showed the nun to the back of the restaurant.

After a few minutes, she came back out, and the whole place stopped just long enough to give the nun a loud round of applause.

She went to the bartender and said, "Sir, I don't understand. Why did they applaud for me just because I went to the restroom?"

"Well, now they know you're one of us," said the bartender. "Would you like a drink?"

"But, I still don't understand," said the puzzled nun.

"You see," laughed the bartender, "every time someone lifts the fig leaf on the statue, the lights go out.”

While making his rounds with a group of medical students, the doctor draws their attention to an x-ray.

 "As is clearly visible on the x-ray, the patient limps because her right fibula and tibia are radically arched. Simon, what would you do in a case like this?"

 "Well sir," says Simon, pondering the question, "I guess I'd limp too."

Finally, Jack had made it to the last round of the $5,000,000 Question. The night prior to the big question, he advised the show's host that he desired a question in American History.

When the big night arrived, Jack made his way on stage in front of the studio and TV audience. He was the best guest the show had ever seen and had become the talk of the town. The host stepped up to the mic.

"Jack, for your final question you have chosen American History. If you answer this question correctly, you will walk away $5,000,000 richer. Are you ready?"

Jack nodded with a cocky confidence and the crowd went wild. He hadn't missed a question all week.

"Jack, your American History question is a two-part question. As you are already aware, you may answer either part first. As a rule, the second half of the question is always easier. Which part would you prefer to take a stab at first?" said the host.

Jack was now becoming more noticeably nervous. He couldn't believe it, but he seemed to be drawing a blank. American History was his easiest subject, but he thought he'd better play it safe. "I'll try the easiest part first," he said.

The host nodded approvingly. "OK, Jack, here we go. I'll ask you the second half first, then the first half."

The audience held their breath with gross anticipation ...

"Jack, here is your question: And in what year did it happen?"  

 The Wolf Man comes home one day from a long day at the office.

"How was work, dear? " his wife asks.

"Listen! I don't want to talk about work!" he shouts.

"Okay. Would you like to sit down and eat a nice home cooked meal?" she asks nicely.

"Listen!" he shouts again. "I'm not hungry! I don't wanna eat! All right! Is that all right with you? Can I come home from work and just do my own thing without you forcing food down my throat? Huh?"

At this moment, the wolf man started growling, and throwing things around the apartment in a mad rage. Looking out the window, his wife sees a full moon and says to herself, "OH!  I guess it’s that time of the month again."

A married couple was in a terrible accident where the woman's face was severely burned. The doctor told the husband that they couldn't graft any skin from her body because she was too skinny. So the husband offered to donate some of his own skin.

However, the only skin on his body that the doctor felt was suitable would have to come from his buttocks. The husband and wife agreed that they would tell no one about where the skin came from, and requested that the doctor also honor their secret. After all, this was a very delicate matter.

After the surgery was completed, everyone was astounded at the woman's new beauty. She looked more beautiful than she ever had before! All her friends and relatives just went on and on about her youthful beauty! One day, she was alone with her husband, and she was overcome with emotion at his sacrifice. She said, "Dear, I just want to thank you for everything you did for me. How can I possibly repay you?"

"My darling," he replied, "I get all the thanks I need every time I see your mother kiss you on the cheek."

Q: Why is an astronaut like a football player?
A: They both want touchdowns!

Q: Why did the moon burp?
A: Because it was full.  

A ham sandwich walks into a bar.

The bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve food here."

A woman called her husband during the day and asked him to pick up some organic vegetables for that night's dinner on his way home.

The husband arrived at the store and began to search all over for organic vegetables before finally asking the produce guy where they were.

The produce guy didn't know what he was talking about, so the husband said: "These vegetables are for my wife. Have they been sprayed with poisonous chemicals?"

To which the produce guy replied, "No, sir, you’ll have to do that yourself."

  
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Once there was a beautiful woman who loved to work in her organic vegetable garden, but no matter what she did, she couldn't get her organic tomatoes to ripen.

Admiring her neighbor's garden, which had beautiful bright red organic tomatoes, she went one day and inquired of him his secret.

"It's really quite simple," the old man explained. "Twice each day, in the morning and in the evening, I expose myself in front of the tomatoes and they turn red with embarrassment."

Desperate for the perfect organic garden, she tried his advice and proceeded to expose herself to her plants twice daily.

Two weeks passed and her neighbor stopped by to check her progress. "So," he asked, "any luck with your tomatoes?"

"No," she replied excitedly... "but you should see the size of my cucumbers!"

19. After 60 if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you're probably dead.

I think I might have screwed up. Several of us local retired pilots were asked to address a junior high gathering put on by the PTA. I was the only speaker to show up, so I had the stage to myself. I talked about staying in school, getting good grades and all that usual bull$hit; and since I had plenty of time because those other guys didn't show, I threw it open for questions.

God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the archangel, found him, resting on the seventh day.

Two young businessmen in Florida were sitting down for a break in their soon-to-be new store in the shopping mall.  As yet, the store's merchandise wasn't in -- only a few shelves and display racks set up.  

One said to the other, "I'll bet that any minute now some old senior is going to walk by, put his face to the window, and ask what we're selling."  

Sure enough, just a moment later, a curious senior gentleman walked up to the window, looked around intensely and rapped on the glass, then in a loud voice asked, What are you selling here?"  

One of the men replied sarcastically, "We're selling a$$-holes."  

Without skipping a beat, the old timer said, "You must be doing well…only two left."

A little boy opened the large old family Bible, and he looked with fascination at the ancient pages as he turned them one by one.

He was still in Genesis when something fell out of the Bible. He picked it up and looked at it closely. It was a very large old tree leaf that had been pressed between the pages of the Bible long ago."Momma, look what I found!" the boy called out.

"What do you have there?" his mother asked.

With astonishment in his voice, the young boy answered, "I think it's Adam's underwear!"

A little girl was in church with her mother when she started feeling ill.

"Mommy," she said, "can we leave now?"

"No," her mother replied.

"Well, I think I have to throw up!" exclaimed the girl.

"Then go out the front door and around to the back of the church and throw up behind a bush," said her mother.

After about sixty seconds, the little girl returned to her seat.

"Did you throw up?" her mother asked.

"Yes," the little girl replied.

"How could you have gone all the way to the back of the church and returned so quickly?" her mother asked.

"I didn't have to go out of the church, Mommy. They have a box next to the front door that says, 'For the Sick’." 

On the sixth day, God created the platypus. And God said: Let's see the evolutionists try and figure this one out.
