    Re: Todays Joke

    An American photographer on holiday was inside a church in Blackburn taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '£10,000 per call'.

    The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for.

    The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for £10,000 you could talk to God.

    The American thanked the priest and went along his way.

    Next stop was in Preston.

    There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it.

    He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in Blackburn and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.

    She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for £10,000 he could talk to God.

    'OK, thank you,' said the American.

    He then travelled to Nelson, Colne, Bury, Rochdale and Oldham.

    In every church he saw the same golden telephone with the same '£10,000 per call' sign under it.

    The American, upon leaving Lancashire, decided to travel across to Yorkshire to see if they had the same phone.

    He arrived in Leeds and again, in the first church he entered, there was the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read '50 pence per call.'

    The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign. 'Father, I've travelled all over Lancashire and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to heaven, but in Lancashire the price was £10,000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?'

    The priest smiled and answered, 'You're in Yorkshire now, son, God's own county ... it's a local call.'

    During training at the England camp, Steven Gerrard over hears Fabio Capello talking to Wayne Rooney.

    He hears Fabio saying to Rooney…

    Emma come first. Den I come.
    Den two asses come together.
    I come once-a-more!
    Two asses, they come together again.
    I come again and pee twice.
    Then I come one lasta time.

    Gerrard can’t take this anymore, and asks “Fabio what’s going on, even Sven waited till after the Tournament before he boasted about his sexual conquests…..”

    “Hey, coola down Gerrard”, Fabio said. “Who talkin’ abouta sexual conquests? I’m a
    justa tellin’ Rooney how to spell ‘ Mississippi ‘!”

    Sorry if you don't find this funny, just grin and bear it ;-)


    A bear walks into a bar in Billings, Montana and sits down. He bangs on the bar with his paw and demands a beer. The bartender approaches and says,
    'We don't serve beer to bears in bars in Billings.'


    The bear, becoming angry, demands again that he be served a beer.
    The bartender tells him again, more forcefully,
    'We don't serve beer to belligerent bears in bars in Billings.'

    The bear, very angry now, says, 'If you don't serve me a beer, I'm going to eat that lady sitting at the end of the bar.'

    The bartender says, 'Sorry, we don't serve beer to belligerent, bully bears in bars in Billings.'

    The bear goes to the end of the bar, and, as promised, eats the woman. He comes back to his seat and again demands a beer.

    The bartender states, 'Sorry, but we especially don't serve beer to belligerent, bully bears in bars in Billings who are on drugs.'

    The bear looks at him quizzically and says, 'I'm not on drugs.'






    The Bartender Says,
    'You Are Now. That Was A Barbitchyouate.'

    Re: Todays Joke

    Two Mexicans are stuck in the desert after crossing into the United States , wandering aimlessly and starving. They are about to just lie down and wait for death, when all of a sudden Luis says.........

    "Hey Pepe, do you smell what I smell. Ees bacon, I theenk."

    "Si, Luis, eet sure smells like bacon. "

    With renewed hope they struggle up the next sand dune, and there in the distance, is a tree loaded with bacon.

    There's raw bacon, there's fried bacon, back bacon, double smoked bacon ... every imaginable kind of cured pork.

    "Pepe, Pepe, we ees saved. Ees a bacon tree."

    "Luis, maybe ees a meerage? We ees in the desert don't forget."

    "Pepe, since when deed you ever hear of a meerage that smell like bacon...ees no meerage, ees a bacon tree."

    And with that, Luis staggers towards the tree. He gets to within five metres, Pepe crawling close behind, when suddenly a machine gun opens up, and Luis drops like a wet sock. Mortally wounded, he warns Pepe with his dying breath,

    "Pepe... go back man, you was right, ees not a bacon tree!"

    "Luis, Luis mi amigo... what ees it? "

    "Pepe.. ees not a bacon tree. Ees


    Ees


    Ees


    Ees



    Ees a ham bush..."

    **New Standard Operating Procedures released today please learn**

    BBQ RULES We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
    Routine...
    (1) The woman buys the food.
    (2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.
    (3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.
    (4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three meter exclusion zone where the exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the interference of the woman.
    Here comes the important part:
    (5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
    More routine...
    (6) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.
    (7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat
    Important again:
    (8) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
    More routine...
    (9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
    (10) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
    And most important of all:
    (11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
    (12) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off", and, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.
