Boy on a Bus

A little boy got on the bus by himself and sat behind the driver.

“If my mom was a cow and my dad was a bull, I’d be a calf,” said the little boy.

The bus driver ignored him.

“If my mom was a hen and my dad was a rooster, I’d be a chick.”

The bus driver started to get slightly annoyed.

“If my mom was a gander and my dad was a goose, I’d be a little gosling.”

These peculiar observations went on for some time. Tired of listening to the little boy ramble on, the bus driver turned and said, “What if your mom was a drunk and your dad was a bum?”

Without hesitation the boy replied, “I’d be a bus driver.”

The Politician’s New Suit

A young politician was getting his first tailor-made suit. A week after the tailor took the measurement, the young man went in for his first fitting.

The new suit looked amazing. He was convinced that his sharp appearance would win him many votes.

As he admired himself in front of the mirror, he reached down to put his hands in the pockets, but to his surprise, there were no pockets!

“Why doesn’t this suit have any pockets?” queried the candidate.

“You’re running for office.” the tailor stated flatly.

The young man retorted, “Of course, but what does that have to do with anything?”

The tailor remarked, “Well who ever heard of a politician putting his hands in his own pockets?”

Look at Me Like You Used to

“It’s kind of sad. While we still get along, my wife just doesn’t look at me the way she used to,” said Keith.

“You think that’s bad,” replied Terry. “These days, my wife looks at me exactly the same way as the day we first met!”

“What’s so bad about that?” asked Keith.

“She looks at me like I’m a complete stranger, and she thinks she could do way better.”

Contagious

While instructing her class, the teacher informed her students that the word of the day is contagious.

She asked if anyone could use this word in a sentence. Several students raised their hands, and the teacher picked on Danny

Danny said, “My dad told me to stay away from kids with mumps, ’cause they’re contagious.”

“Very good,” said the teacher.

Then she picked Mary, who said, “The atmosphere was contagious.”

The teacher says, “Excellent, Mary!” Then she noticed that little Johnny had his hand up at the back of the class. “Yes, Johnny?” she said.

Johnny cleared his throat and said, “The other day, me and my dad’s a-sittin’ around, and we saw our blonde neighbor painting her fence. She had a tiny little model car paintbrush, and she was going in tiny little strokes up and down the fence, and my dad says to me, ‘Jesus, it’s gonna take that cunt ages to finish that fence.'”

The Daughters’ Names

A man had three daughters ages 5, 7, and 9. One morning, the oldest daughter came up to him and asked, “Dad, why am I named Rose?”

The father responded by saying “Because on the day you were born, a rose petal fell on your head.”

The next day the middle daughter asked the father, “Daddy, why am I called Daisy?”

The father again responded by saying “Because when you were a baby, a daisy petal fell on your head.”

Another day went by and the youngest daughter started screaming gibberish. The father looked at her and yelled, “Shut up, Brick!”

The Jury’s Verdict

A man was on trial for the crime of stealing his neighbor’s TV.

After both sides rested, the jury left to deliberate. An hour later they returned.

“Have you reached a verdict?” asked the judge.

“We have, your honor,” the foreman said. “We find the defendant not guilty, but he has to return the television.”

Miffed, the judge informed them, “If you find him not guilty, then that means you don’t believe he stole the television. If he didn’t steal the TV, then how can he return it? Go deliberate some more until you can come back with a verdict that makes sense!”

The jury left again, and an hour later they returned once more.

“Have you reached a more consistent verdict?” asked the judge.

“We have, your honor,” the foreman said. “We find the defendant not guilty, but he can keep the TV.”

Computer Careers and Car Care

A computer engineer, a systems analyst, and a programmer were driving down a mountain when the brakes gave out. They screamed down the mountain, gaining speed, and by sheer luck finally managed to grind to a halt merely inches from a steep drop off to jagged rocks below. They all got out of the car.

The computer engineer said, “I think I can fix it.”

The systems analyst said, “No, I think we should take it into town and have a specialist look at it.”

The programmer said, “OK, but first I think we should get back in and see if it does it again.”

Poker Emergency

A surgeon was relaxing on his sofa. As he settled in for a quiet evening at home, the phone rang. The doctor calmly answered it.

A medical colleague said, “We need a fourth for poker!”

“I’ll be right over,” said the doctor.

As he put on his coat his wife asked, “Is it really serious?”

“Quite serious, it would seem,” said the doctor gravely. “There are already three other doctors there!”

The Lost Balloonist

A man flying in a hot air balloon realized he was lost, so he reduced altitude and spotted a man walking down below. As he lowered the balloon further, he shouted to the person on the ground, “Excuse me, can you tell me where I am? ”

The pedestrian replied, “Yes. You’re in a hot air balloon, about 30 feet above the ground.”

Miffed, the balloonist retorted, “You must work in IT.”

“I do,” replied the man. “How did you know?”

“While everything you told me is technically correct, I won’t be able to find my landing site because the information you gave me is completely useless!”

The man below replied, “Then I presume you work in management.”

“I do,” replied the balloonist, “But how did you know?”

“Because you got where you are by means of a lot of hot air, you don’t know where you are or where you’re going, you expect someone beneath you to solve your problem, and while you’re in the same position you were in before we met, somehow it’s now my fault.”

Hooked

An old seaman met an old pirate in a bar, and talked about their adventures on the sea. The seaman noted that the pirate had a peg-leg, a hook, and an eye patch.

The seaman asked, “So, how did you end up with the peg-leg?”

The pirate replied, “We were in a storm at sea, and I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. Just as my men were pulling me out, a shark bit my leg off.”

“Wow!” exclaimed the seaman. “What about your hook”?

“We were boarding an enemy ship and were battling the other sailors with swords,” recalled the pirate. “In the skirmish, one of the enemy managed to cut off my hand.”

“Incredible!” remarked the seaman. “And how did you get the eye patch?”

“A seagull dropping fell into my eye,” replied the pirate.

“You lost your eye to a seagull dropping?,” the sailor asked incredulously.

“Well,” sighed the pirate, “it was my first day with the hook”
