ATTORNEY: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure?

WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law.

Re: Jokes
A tour bus driver is driving with a bus load of senior citizens up to London on the motorway when he is tapped on his shoulder by a little old lady. She offers him a handful of peanuts, which he gratefully munches up.
After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder again and she hands him another handful of peanuts.
She repeats this gesture about five more times.
When she is about to hand him another batch again ....he asks the little old lady, 'Why don't you eat the peanuts yourself?'
'We can't chew them because we've no teeth.' she replied.
The puzzled driver asks, 'Why do you buy them then?' The old lady replied, 'We just love the chocolate around them.'

Re: Jokes
Very good Bill =D> The attorney jokes are priceless and I nearly barfed at the chocolate peanut joke
Erging is out of the window at the moment as I recently melted the rail and stretched the chain on a very fast 500 and C2 can't get me any replacement parts for 18 months (hopefully)
So here are some jokes to cheer me up (but you're welcome to read them too) :
Two scientists go into a bar (we'll call them X and Y)
X: "I'll have a glass of H2O."
Y: "I'll have a glass of H2O too."
Then they sit down.
Y: "How's your drink?"
X: It's a bit plain and tasteless actually."
Y: "Well try mine. It's rocket fuel!" =D> =D> =D> (D'you get it? Oh well. Stan will.)

We cleared out my gran's flat this morning, sorted out the good stuff and put it on eBay, and then went to the estate agents to put her flat on the market.
She'll be well cheesed off when she gets back from the bingo.

Are daytime TV phone-in competitions too easy?
A - Wayne Rooney
B - Yes
C - Eastenders
***
I was standing on the bathroom scales yesterday, desperately sucking my stomach in.
"That won't help" said my wife.
"Yes it will" I replied. "It's the only way I can see the numbers."
***
Apparently, people who talk to their cats are sad and lonely individuals.
My dog's full of useful information like that.
***
This evening my wife arrived home with her hazard lights on.
So that's full marks for honesty.
***
Do you remember those two terrible Winters we had?
Mike and Bernie.
***
I remember our first night together. Twenty years, but it seems like only yesterday.
"You haven't removed many bras have you?" my future wife sighed.
"What gave it away?" I asked.
"The scissors mainly."

Re: Jokes
One of me ancestors, a certain Colorado Will went out to seek his fortune on the frontier of the old West. He finally settled on a sheep ranching town near the very edge of civilisation called Eebaargum. So near, in fact, that there weren't any women to be found for love nor money.
Well, he was young and full of hormones, and after a month, he started getting randy, so he went to the saloon to ask around. After a couple of sort of nervous, whispered conversations, it comes out that you're supposed to use the sheep.
Well, Colorado Will weren't real happy about this, but he was growing real desperate. He bought a bottle to nerve himself up. He then went and found the nearest flock, and decided that if he's going to do this at all, he's going to do it right.
He spent most of that afternoon picking out the prettiest sheep in the flock..
He shampooed her wool and tied ribbons around her neck. Put a little bell on her collar. He also got pretty drunk.
By evening, he'd done cleaning up the sheep, and not thinking real clearly.
He was so proud of the way the sheep looked, he decided to take her in to town and show her off at the saloon.
He walked in with the sheep, and the room went deathly quiet. Everybody's staring at the guy. And not just staring, but kinda recoiling in shock and horror.
He's ashamed, but he was drunk enough;
He mumbled out "Whassamada?, I thought ever'body went out to the sheep?"
Finally, one old timer piped up.
"Yeah, boy, but you got the sheriff's girl!"

Re: Jokes
An old guy is sitting on a bus when a punk rocker gets on.
The punk rocker's mohawk is red, green, yellow and orange. He has feather earrings. When he sees the old man staring at him, the punk rocker says,
"What's the matter old man? Didn't you ever do anything wild when you were a young guy?"
The old guy says in reply "Yeah. One time I screwed a peacock. I thought maybe you were my kid!
Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time - I think I've forgotten this before.
Moving on...............
Isn't it strange how hot sexy women always drive cute little cars?
Which reminds me, the MOT's due on the wife's Transit Van.
I'll get me coat then!

Re: Jokes
I love the Sad cat diary Bill So much so that I wrote this.
Human Owner Manual for Cats
1. If you sit and stare at a door for long enough, it will eventually open itself.
2. Your owner will feed you far more quickly if you meow at him at regular three second intervals while he wrestles with his knackered can opener.
3. Your owner’s hand is dual purpose. It serves to give you squirming enjoyment through stroking and can then be instantly transformed into a soft practice hunting target to be bitten and clawed violently until it retreats in agony.
4. As soon as fresh cat litter arrives it must be scratched and flicked in an even pattern extending 3 yards around the litter tray.
5. A stolen chicken carcass should never be eaten all in the same place. It should be dragged at regular intervals during consumption leaving a trail of bones and flesh through the dining room, up the stairs, along the landing and into the bathroom.
6. You will probably have about fifteen ‘beds’ in your owner’s house but if you are a black cat your preferred sleeping place should be on top of a black jumper on the floor of a darkened bedroom.
7. Whatever your owner is eating is much better than the food he has just given you. Show your disdain for smoked salmon by staring at him with unflinching hatred for at least ten minutes while he tries to enjoy his egg on toast.
8. If your owner calls you over for a stroke then walk purposefully towards him before swerving away at the last second as you carry out your more important mission of leaping onto the window sill and looking at the birds on the lawn.
9. If your owner tries a new catfood on you then wolf down the sample packet with purring enthusiasm before going on hunger strike as soon as he has been out and bought a box of twenty packets of it.
10. In spite of yourself you may occasionally find that you want to treat your owner by doing an inspection walk round his lap before finally settling down for a snooze and a stroke. This should only happen thirty seconds before the nice man from India phones about your owner’s PPI.

Human Owner Manual for Cats
1. If you sit and stare at a door for long enough, it will eventually open itself.
2. Your owner will feed you far more quickly if you meow at him at regular three second intervals while he wrestles with his knackered can opener.
3. Your owner’s hand is dual purpose. It serves to give you squirming enjoyment through stroking and can then be instantly transformed into a soft practice hunting target to be bitten and clawed violently until it retreats in agony.
4. As soon as fresh cat litter arrives it must be scratched and flicked in an even pattern extending 3 yards around the litter tray.
5. A stolen chicken carcass should never be eaten all in the same place. It should be dragged at regular intervals during consumption leaving a trail of bones and flesh through the dining room, up the stairs, along the landing and into the bathroom.

Re: Jokes
A woman went to the doctor who told her she only had 6 months to live.
"Oh my God!" said the woman. "What shall I do?"
"Marry an accountant," suggested the doctor.
"Why?" asked the woman. "Will that make me live longer?"
"No," replied the doctor. "But it will SEEM longer."
The doctor comes to see his heart transplant patient.
"This is good news. It is very unusual, but we have two donors to choose from for your new heart."
The patient is pleased. He asks, "What were their jobs?"
"One was a teacher and the other was an accountant."
"I'll take the accountant's heart," says the patient. "I want one that hasn't been used."
Q: How do you save a drowning accountant?
A: Take your foot off their head.

Re: Jokes
Don't worry Laurence, I understood that one By the way, I hate Sauerkraut.Scoop wrote: I went to a German Restaurant the other day. Not a pleasant experience.
The starter was sauerkraut, and it was dreadful.
But the wurst was yet to come ...
(Peter this is a joke It only works because 'wurst' is the German word for sausage and it sounds like 'worst' in English.)
Here's another one:
The Devil walks into a crowded bar. When the people see who it is,they all run out except this one old man. So the devil walks up to him and says" Do you know who I am?" and the old man sips his beer and answers "yep". The Devil says "Well, why aren't you afraid of me?" The old man looks over and says" I've been married to your sister for 27 years, why the hell should I be scared of you."
