    Paul's height is six feet, he's an assistant at a butcher's shop,has a 42 inch chest with a 34 waist, and wears size 9 shoes. What does he weigh? meat

    There was a green house. Inside the green house there was a white house. Inside the white house there was a red house. Inside the red house there were lots of babies. What is it? a melon

    Which word in the dictionary is spelled incorrectly? incorrectly





    Judas: Still on for Friday?

    Jesus: Friday?

    Judas: Yeah, the Last Supper.

    Jesus: The what?

    Judas: ermm Supper. Normal supper with the lads.


    A fire has ripped through the Torch skyscraper in Dubai, one of the tallest residential buildings in the world.

    And also one of the most appropriately named buildings in the world.

    My boss phoned me.

    He said, "You're fired."

    I said, "Why? I haven't done anything!"

    He said, "Exactly."

    I was watching Jurassic park the other day, when I thought, "Not only does my son have a stupid name, but he's also a shit driver".

    Taking the decision to bend over and tie your shoelaces on a moving escalator injects the added thrill of a 'time limit'.

    somebody asked me today 'whats the capital of Greece??'


    Apparently 'about £1.53' was the wrong answer..

    Show of hands: Who here is an Iraqi thief?

    I let my sister use my car to go to the shops, and she came back with a full tank.

    Now I just need the rest of it.

    As a matter of fact, I am God's gift to women.

    But then again,yes I am a cake.

    My wife thinks I steal the covers. I think they just have further to go her side.


    todays puzzles ..oops forgot em!!


    THINK TWICE
    Which weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of bricks?


    PUZZLING PRATTLE (BY SAM LOYD)
    Two children, who were all tangled up in their reckoning of the days of the week, paused on their way to school to straighten matters out. "When the day after tomorrow is yesterday," said Priscilla, "then 'today' will be as far from Sunday as that day was which was 'today' when the day before yesterday was tomorrow!"
    On which day of the week did this puzzling prattle occur?


    APPLES
    Apple Riddle
    A basket contains 5 apples. Do you know how to divide them among 5 kids so that each one has an apple and one apple stays in the basket?


    PEARS
    There are a few trees in a garden. On one of them, a pear tree, there are pears (quite logical). But after a strong wind blew, there were neither pears on the tree nor on the ground.
    How come?


    SACK
    A poor farmer went to the market to sell some peas and lentils. However, as he had only one sack and didn't want to mix peas and lentils, he poured in the peas first, tied the sack in the middle, and then filled the top portion of the sack with the lentils. At the market a rich innkeeper happened by with his own sack. He wanted to buy the peas, but he did not want the lentils.
    Pouring the seed anywhere else but the sacks is considered soiling. Trading sacks is not allowed. The farmer can't cut a hole in his sack.
    How would you transfer the peas to the innkeeper's sack, which he wants to keep, without soiling the produce?


    SEA TALES
    The captain of a ship was telling this interesting story: "We traveled the sea far and wide. At one time, two of my sailors were standing on opposite sides of the ship. One was looking west and the other one east. And at the same time, they could see each other clearly."
    How can that be possible?

    hi there,quick whizz in - did nothing yesterday until evening - gig and home at 2am as a long drive.Did nothing in a good way,thinking that I'm really doing ok and don't have to deal with all work issues in one go - that I am definitely going to quit rollerderby and may message coaches this week.I finally realised angst it adds to my life - done fighting it trying to skirt round unpleasant issues.I'm stubborn and didn't want to be bullied out,but it's unpleasant to be around,plus there are other issues injury,time pressure etc.

    So that's one thing sorted,feel quite sad as it can be fun,leaving some nice people but overall relieved and it's right decision.

    Anyway,saturday happy days - day 35.
    happy weekend everyone.

    Off to meet ex rollergirls for lunch and shopping trip,should be fun.
    Tomorrow gym and cleaning/sorting house out.
    one day at a time

        Mornin' Mick, Happy to see the watermelon puzzle answer; that one had me going. Did you select a tile installer? And yes, totally hogging the heat here, for a few more days, anyhow.

        Well done, SL!

        Hi Bear, and everyone.

          Good morning Abbers,

          Well, I found out late last evening that my DIL needs to be at her church all day for some sort of training for something 7 my son is at work all day SO I will be watching the boys 8:30am to 3:30 pm or thereabouts. I'm not taking any prisoners today, LOL

          Thanks for the startup Mick! Great on getting the professional in to do the tile job, you won't regret that

          I'll check in later tonight if I have any brains left, ha ha!
          Have a good AF Day everyone.

              MAE ALL.....

              Mick...thanks for kicking us off this morning. Yup, the snow has arrived covering the frozen rain we got yesterday. Hopefully the road will improve before heading down to Dads. Good plan on having the tiles installed by someone else.

              Bear...making a decision is great. It doesn't matter if it's right or wrong it's been decided and now you can move on. Enjoy your lunch and shopping trip.

              Pie...I was glad to see that answer too. You hold onto that heat as long as you can, everyone else can wait their turn.

              Lav...hope you have a successful time with the grandkids. Stick to your guns.

              Morning Sam....

              SL.....CONGRATS ON YOUR 1 YEAR

              Must be off and rustle something up for breakie. Have a Super Sober Saturday all and all to come....:smile:PPQP

                    Mae everybody, late check in for me, glad all went good with the boys Lav,still having a horrible time with sleep but I just accept it I guess, I just don't like that full body exhaustion that makes me sort of twitchy, I'm tapering off of an anti anxiety med that I've been on for years and I know that's most of the reason, however you guys know I've had insomnia way before this,getting through work today took a miracle but I did it,hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday
                    I have too much shit to do today and tomorrow to drink:sohappy:

                    I'm taking care of the "tomorrow me":thumbsup:
                    Drinkin won't help a damn thing! Will only make me sick for DAYS and that ugly, spacey dumb feeling-no thanks!

                            I'm embarrassed to tell you how long it took me to finally get this joke. Good one, Mick!
