  • Tax inspector

    A tax inspector decided to investigate religion, he first went to the Bishop and asked, 'What do you do with all the leftover wax from the candles you burn??' 'We collect it and send it back to the candle makers who give us a few candles in return..'he said.

    Next he goes to the Pope, 'What do you do with all the crumbs from the wafers after Holy Communion...? The Pope replied, 'We send them back to the wafer makers who give us a few extra in return...'

    Lastly he goes to the Rabii and askes him what he does with all the bits of left over skin after doing a 'snip'. The Rabii replies. 'We collect them all and send them to the tax office who then send out pricks like you'.... BOOM, BOOM,

  • Boring

    My surname is Bradbury and our family crest is a shield with 3 'buckles' on it which implies our family made buckles at some time or other, it's not very exciting so I thought you could help me to write a more macho past. i.e. our family saved a king from being killed by a hit man and evryone knows the 'buckler' did it....What do you think???

  • Poor Dog

    A highly timid little man, ventured into a biker bar in the Bronx and clearing his throat asked, "Um, err, which of you gentlemen owns the Doberman tied outside to the parking meter?" A giant of a man, wearing biker leathers, his body hair growing out through the seams, turned slowly on his stool, looked down at the quivering little man and said, "It's my dog. Why?"

    "Well," squeaked the little man, obviously very nervous, "I believe my dog just killed it, sir." "What?" roared the big man in disbelief. "What in the hell kind of dog do you have?" "Sir," answered the little man, "it's a little four week old female puppy." "Bull!" roared the biker, "how could your puppy kill my Doberman?" "It appears that your dog choked on her, sir."

  • Terrorists

    I'm over 60 and the Armed Forces say I'm too old to track down terrorists. (You can't be older than 35 to join the military.)

    They've got the whole thing backwards. Instead of sending 18 year-olds off to fight, they ought to take us old guys. You shouldn't be able to join a military unit until you're at least 35.

    For starters:

    Researchers say 18 year-olds think about sex every 10 seconds.

    Old guys only think about sex a couple of times a day, leaving us more than 28,000 additional seconds per day to concentrate on the enemy.

    Young guys haven't lived long enough to be cranky, and a cranky soldier is a dangerous soldier. If we can't kill the enemy we'll complain them into submission. "My back hurts! I'm hungry! Where's the remote?"

    An 18-year-old hasn't had a legal beer yet and you shouldn't go to war until you're at least old enough to drink. The average old guy, on the other hand, has consumed 126,000 gallons of beer, and a jaunt through the desert heat with a beer and an M-60 Machine-gun would do wonders for the old beer belly. (Note there are 24 hours in a day and 24 bottles in a case...another convenient way to measure time!)

    An 18-year-old doesn't like to get up before 10 a.m.

    Old guys always get up early to pee.

    If captured we couldn't spill the beans because we'd forget where we put them. In fact, name, rank, and serial number would be a real brain-teaser.

    Boot camp would be easier for old guys. We're used to getting screamed and yelled at and we like soft food. We've also developed an appreciation for guns.

    We like them almost better than naps.

    They could lighten up on the obstacle course however. I've been in the service and didn't see a single 20-foot wall with rope hanging over the side, nor did I ever do any push-ups after completing training. I can hear the Drill Sgt now, "Get down and give me ... er .. one."

    Actually, the running part is kind of a waste of energy. I've never seen anyone outrun a bullet.

    An 18-year-old has the whole world ahead of him. He's still learning to shave, to carry on a conversation, and to wear pants without the top of his butt crack showing and his shorts sticking out. He hasn't figured out that a pierced tongue catches food particles, and that a 400-watt speaker in the back seat of a Honda can rupture an eardrum, and that a baseball cap has a brim to shade eyes, not the back of his head.

    These are all great reasons to keep our kids at home to learn a little more about life before sending them off into harm's way.

    Let us old guys track down those dirty rotten cowards who attacked us on September 11. The last thing an enemy would want to see right now is a couple of million old farts with attitudes.

    Share this with your senior friends. It's purposely in big type so you can read it.
