I was taking the motorway out of London. A policeman pulled me over and said: 'Put it back.'
I've just been on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday. I'll tell you what, never again.
Velcro... what a ripoff.
Do you ever get that when you're half way through eating a horse and you think to yourself, 'I'm not as hungry as I thought I was?'
Crime in multi-storey car parks: it's wrong on so many levels.
One-armed butlers - they can take it but they can?t dish it out.
I used go out with an anesthetist - she was a local girl.
When I left home, my mum said: 'Don't forget to write.' I thought: 'That's unlikely - it's a basic skill, isn't it?'
We live in a world where losing your phone is more dramatic than losing your virginity.
A little kid walks into a city bus and sits right behind the driver and
Starts yelling? ?if my dad was a bull and my mom a cow i?d be a little
Bull.? the driver ignored kids noise.. The kid continued? till the driver gets angry and said. ?what if your dad was gay
And your mom was a
Prostitute?!? the kid smiles and says? ?i would be a bus driver like you!?
To tell the weather, Go to your back door and look for the dog.
If the dog is at the door and he is wet, it's probably raining. But if the dog is standing there really soaking wet, it is probably raining really hard.
If the dog's fur looks like it's been rubbed the wrong way, it's probably windy.
If the dog has snow on his back, it's probably snowing.
Of course, to be able to tell the weather like this, you have to leave the dog outside all the time, especially if you expect bad weather.
Sincerely,
The CAT
A man woke up in a hospital bed and called for his doctor. He asked "Give it to me straight. How long have I got?"
The physician replied that he doubted that his patient would survive the night. The man then said "Call for my lawyer."
When the lawyer arrived, the man asked for his physician to stand on one side of the bed, while the lawyer stood on the other. The man then laid back and closed his eyes. When he remained silent for several minutes, the physician asked what he had in mind. The man replied "Jesus died with a thief on either side, and I thought I'd check out the same way."
Two Russian hunters meet. I shot a gigantic bear yesterday, says Ivan. Look at the hide!
How do you find such huge bears? Sergei asks.
Easy, says Ivan. You stand in front of a cave and whistle. When the bear comes out, you shoot.
Weeks later the two meet again. Sergei is covered in bandages. Didn't you follow my advice? Ivan asks.
Sure I did. I stood, in front of a cave and whistled, Sergei replies.
And what came out?
To me, says Sergei, it looked like the Trans-Siberian Express
In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the neighbors listen.
A reporter was interviewing a 104 year-old woman: "And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?" She simply replied, "No peer pressure."
One man calls emergency:
- Come immediately, my little son has swallowed a condom!
After five minutes, the same man calls back:
- It is OK, I found another one.

I realized that I made it sound like I was different or superior to the others in the court room. That isn't true. I have been in the place four times, including in the holding area with some in shackles! Last time I was there, there was an attorney who was obviously impaired. Never want to see the place again.
