The teacher of the earth science class was lecturing
on map reading.
After explaining about latitude, longitude, degrees and
minutes the teacher asked, “Suppose I asked you to
meet me for lunch at 23 degrees, 4 minutes north
latitude and 45 degrees, 15 minutes east longitude...?”
After a confused silence, a voice
volunteered, “I guess you’d be eating
alone.”

My boyfriend and I met online and
we’d been dating for over a year. I
introduced ryan to my uncle, who was
fascinated by the fact that we met
over the Internet. He asked ryan what
kind of line he had used to
pick me up. Ever the geek,
ryan naively replied, “uhm,
I just used a regular cable
broadband line...”

A taxpayer received a strongly worded “second notice”
that his taxes were overdue. Hastening to the collector’s
office, he paid his bill, saying apologetically that he had
overlooked the first notice.
“Oh,” confided the collector with a smile, “we don’t send
out first notices. We have found that the second notices
are more effective.”

KIDS ICE FISHING
February 4th, 2012, 10AM to 4PM
DERBY
TOURNAMENT
at APlex ‑ 701 Woodward Avenue, February 12, 2012 at Old Orchard Park,
February 18, 2012 in Barton City on
Jewel Lake. Sponsored by Barton
City Improvement Assocation.
Tournament from 10am‑2pm with
trophies and awards ceremony at
2pm. Poles, Bait and assistance
provided along with Ice skating
Hockey Puck shoot out.
Hot Dogs and Hot Cocoa provided.
An old man goes to a diner every day for lunch. He always orders
the soup du jour. One day the manager asks him how he liked his
meal. The old man replies, in a thick acccent, “Wass goot, but you
could give a little more bread.”
So the next day the manager tells the waitress to give him four
slices of bread. “How was your meal, sir?” the manager asks. “Wass
goot, but you could give a little more bread,” comes the reply.
So the next day the manager tells the waitress to give him eight
slices of bread. “How was your meal today, sir?” the manager asks.
“Wass goot, but you could give a little more bread,” comes the
reply.
So … the next day the manager tells the waitress to give him a
whole loaf of bread with his soup. “How was your meal, sir?” the
manager asks, when he comes to pay. “Wass goot, but you could
give just a little more bread,” comes the reply once again.
The manager is now obsessed with seeing this customer say that
he is satisfied with his meal, so he goes to the bakery, and orders
a six-foot-long loaf of bread. When the man comes in as usual the
next day, the waitress and the manager cut the loaf in half, butter
the entire length of each half, and lay it out along the counter, right
next to his bowl of soup. The old man sits down, and devours both
his bowl of soup, and both halves of the six-foot-long loaf of bread.
The manager now thinks he will get the answer he is looking for,
and when the old man comes up to pay for his meal, the manager
asks in the usual way: “How was your meal TODAY, sir?”
The old man replies: “It wass goot as usual, but I see you are back
to giving only two slices of bread.”

A Kindergarten teacher was observing
her classroom of children while they were
drawing. She would occasionally walk around
to see each child’s work. As she got to one
little girl who was working diligently, she
asked what the drawing was.
The girl replied, ‘I’m drawing God.’
The teacher paused and said, ‘But no one
knows what God looks like.’
Without missing a beat, or looking up from
her drawing, the girl replied, ‘They will in a
minute.’

at a roadside stand that sold fruit, vegetables
and crafts. As I went to pay, I noticed the young

“Why the new sign?” I asked. “My boyfriend didn’t
approve of the old one,” she said. When I glanced
at what hung above the counter, I understood. It
declared: “Local Honey Dates Nuts”

After a moment, another voice replied, “Yes, I’m a friendly
bear,” and then another voice, “I’m a friendly bear too!”
At this point, the Officer at Headquarters grabbed his
microphone and let loose a blistering tirade at the operators
for fooling around on a radio link.
When he had finished, there was silence for about ten
seconds. Then a small voice said, “You’re not a very friendly
bear, are you?”

One says, “It’s

years old, and
she’s just 26! What
kind of a wedding is
that?”
“We call it a

The first asks,

wedding?”
The other says,
“She’s waiting for
him to kick off!”
Ever since i was a child, I’ve always had a fear of
someone under my bed at night. So I went to a shrink
and told him, “I’ve got problems. Every time I go to bed
I think there’s somebody under it. I’m scared. I think
I’m going crazy.”
“Just put yourself in my hands for one year,” said the
shrink. “Come talk to me three times a week and we
should be able to get rid of those fears.”
“How much do you charge?”
“Eighty dollars per visit,” replied the doctor.
“I’ll think about it,” I said.
Six months later, I met the doctor on the street. “Why
didn’t you come to see me about those fears you were
having?” he asked.
“Well, eighty bucks a visit three times a week for a year
is an awful lot of money! A bartender cured me for
$10. I was so happy to have saved all that money that I
bought me a new pickup!”
“Is that so!” With a bit of an attitude he said, “And how,
may I ask, did a bartender cure you?”’
“He told me to cut the legs off the bed! -- Ain’t nobody
under there now!!!”

A woman went to the market
one day to buy herring
and a loaf of bread. “How
much is it?” she asked the
storekeeper.

“14 cents,” answered the
storekeeper to the lady.
989-735-2156
“14 cents! For what?” asked
the lady.
The storekeeper explained:
The herring costs 7 cents,
and the loaf of bread costs
7 cents also. So together it
comes to 14 cents.”
“I know different. To the best
of my recollection, 7 and 7
is 11.”
“What are your saying?”
“I’m just burnin’ up the keyboard on my
little pink computah!”
The out-of-work newlywed took a temporary job as a vacuum
cleaner salesman to make ends meet. After 3 days of intensive
training, the sales manager told him to go home and practice his
pitch on his wife.
The next morning, the manager asked the novice how he made
out.
“Well,” the man began, “I did what you said, and after I finished, I
asked her if she would buy the vacuum cleaner from me. She said
‘Yes.’ Then I asked her ‘Why?’ She replied, ‘Because I love you.’”
“As far as I know, 7 and 7
is 11...I had already had
4 children when my first
husband died. When I
married a second time, my
second husband also had 4
children from his first wife.
After getting married, we had
3 children together. So each
of us had 7 children, and
together we had 11!
A young man was driving up a steep, winding and narrow
mountain road. Going round a tight corner, he notices a
woman driver who is coming in the opposite direction begin
to lean out of her window. As they pass each other she yells
at him - “PIG!!!!”
The man immediately leans out of his window and screams
back at her, “WITCH!!!”
Each continues on their way, and as the man rounds the
next bend he crashes into an enormous pig, right in the
middle of the road...
Obviously, 7 and 7 is 11.”
If only men would listen.

When I went to pick
it up, several off-duty
bus drivers surrounded
me. One man handed
me my pocketbook,
two typewritten pages
and a box containing
the contents of my

“We’re required to
inventory lost wallets
and purses,” he
explained. “I think
you’ll find everything
there.”
As I started to put
my belongings back
into the pocketbook,
the man continued, “I
hope you don’t mind
if we watch. Even
though we all tried,
none of us could fit
everything into your
purse. And we’d like
to see just how you do
it.”
A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten
Commandments with her five and six year olds.
After explaining the commandment to ‘honour’
thy Father and thy Mother, she asked, ‘Is there a
commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers
and sisters?’
From the back, one little boy answered,
‘Thou shall not kill.’

My father is an avid fan
of a nearby university’s
football team. During a
recent season, his team
got off to a poor start, and
almost every Saturday
afternoon Dad sat ranting
at the TV screen.
One day, after loud
shouts of disgust, silence
fell. Puzzled, my mother
went into the living
room to find him quietly
watching a World War II
movie.
“I just switched over to
something that I knew
we would win!” Dad
explained.

On New Year’s Eve, Marilyn stood up in the
local pub and said that it was time to get
ready. At the stroke of midnight, she wanted
every husband to be standing next to the one
person who made his life worth living.
Peter, at a party, turns to his friend, Ken, and asks for a cigarette.
‘I thought you made a New Year’s resolution to quit smoking,’ Ken
responds. ‘I’m in the process of quitting,’ replies Peter with a grin.
‘Right now, I am in the middle of phase one.’
‘Phase one?’ wonders Ken.
Well, it was kind of embarrassing. As the
clock struck - the bartender was almost
crushed to death.
‘Yeah,’ replied Peter, ‘I’ve quit buying.’

An airline captain was
breaking in a new
blonde stewardess. The
route they were flying
had a layover in another
city. Upon their arrival,
the captain showed the
stewardess the best place
for airline personnel
to eat, shop and stay
overnight.
The next morning, as
the pilot was preparing
the crew for the day’s
route, he noticed the
new stewardess was
missing. He knew which
room she was in at the
hotel and called her
up wondering what
happened. She answered
the phone, crying, and
said she couldn’t get out
of her room. “You can’t
get out of your room?”
the captain asked, “Why
not?”
The stewardess replied:
“There are only three
doors in here,” she
sobbed, “one is the
bathroom, one is the
closet, and one has a
sign on it that says ‘Do
Not Disturb’!”

A Senator was once asked about his
attitude toward whisky.
“Dear Lord
So far this year I’ve done well.
I haven’t gossiped, I haven’t lost my
temper, I haven’t been gossipy, grumpy,
nasty, or overindulgent. I’m very
thankful for that. But in a few minutes,
Lord, I’m going to get out of bed, and
from then on I’m probably going to
need a lot more help.
Amen.”
‘If you mean the demon drink that
poisons the mind, pollutes the body,
desecrates family life, and inflames
sinners, then I’m against it. But if you
mean the elixir of a New Year toast,
the shield against winter chill, the
taxable potion that puts needed funds
into public coffers to comfort little
crippled children, then I’m for it. This is
my position, and I will not compromise.’

- Raising teenagers is like trying to nail Jell-O to a tree.
- There’s always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it.
For example, I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles
don’t hurt.
- Reason to smile: Every seven minutes of every day someone in an
aerobics class pulls a hamstring.
- The best way to keep kids at home is to make the home a pleasant
atmosphere...and let the air out of their tires.

On New Year’s Eve, Daniel
was in no shape to drive,
so he sensibly left his van
in the car park and walked
home. As he was wobbling
along, he was stopped by
a policeman. ‘What are
you doing out here at four
o’clock in the morning?’
asked the police officer.
‘I’m on my way to a lecture,’
answered Roger.
‘And who on earth, in their
right mind, is going to give
a lecture at this time on
New Year’s Eve?’ enquired
the constable sarcastically.
‘My wife,’ slurred Daniel.

OFFSPRING
Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows
about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favorite
foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.
A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.
“Who is it?” my friend
asked nervously.
“Honey,” a woman on the
other side yelled, “you left
your key in the door.”
A grocer put up a sign that read “Eggplants, 25 each -three for a dollar.”
All day long, customers came in exclaiming: “Don’t be
ridiculous! I should get four for a dollar!”
Meekly the grocer capitulated and packaged four
eggplants. The tailor next door had been watching these
antics and finally asked the grocer, “Aren’t you going to
fix the mistake on your sign?”
“What mistake?” the grocer asked. “Before I put up that
sign no one ever bought more than one eggplant.”

The Lawyer and the Butcher
a lawyer’s dog, running about unleashed, beelines for a
butcher shop and steals a roast.
The butcher goes to the lawyer’s office and asks, “If a dog
running unleashed steals a piece of meat from my store, do
i have a right to demand payment for the meat from the
dog’s owner?”
the lawyer answers, “absolutely.”
“then you owe me $8.50. Your dog was loose and stole a
roast from me today.”
the lawyer, without a word, writes the butcher a check for
$8.50 (attorneys don’t carry cash).
Several days later, the butcher opens the mail and finds
an envelope from the lawyer: it was a bill for $100 for a
consultation!

Bats in the Belfry
Get Married Again?
Three Pastors in the south were having
lunch in a diner.
a husband and wife are sitting quietly in
bed reading when the wife looks over at
him and asks “the” question.
One said, “Since summer started I’ve
been having trouble with bats in my loft
and attic at church. I’ve tried everything-noise, spray, cats--nothing seems to scare
them away.”
Another said, “Me too. I’ve got hundreds
living in my belfry and in the narthex
attic. I’ve even had the place fumigated,
and they won’t go away.”
The third said, “I baptized all mine,
and made them members of the church.
Haven’t seen one back since.”
The children were lined up
in the cafeteria of a Catholic
elementary school for lunch. At
the head of the table was a large
pile of apples. The nun made a
note, and posted on the apple
tray:
‘Take only ONE . God is watching.’
Moving further along the lunch
line, at the other end of the table
was a large pile of chocolate chip
cookies. A child had written a
note:
‘Take all you want. God is
watching the apples...’
WIFE: “What would you do if i died?
Would you get married again?”
HUSBAND: “Definitely not!”
WIFE: “Why not? Don’t you like being
married?”
HUSBAND: “Of course i do.”
WIFE: “then why wouldn’t you
remarry?
HUSBAND: “Okay, okay, i’d get married
again.
WIFE: “You would?” (with a hurt look)
HUSBAND: (makes audible groan)
WIFE: “Would you live in our house?”
HUSBAND: “Sure, it’s a great house.”
WIFE: “Would you sleep with her in our
bed?”
HUSBAND: “Where else would we
sleep?”
WIFE: “Would you let her drive my car?”
HUSBAND: “Probably, it is almost new.”
WIFE: “Would you replace my pictures
with hers?”
HUSBAND: “that would seem like the
proper thing to do.”
WIFE: “Would you give her my
jewelry?”
HUSBAND: “No, i’m sure she’d want
her own.”
WIFE: “Would you take her golfing with
you?”
HUSBAND: “Yes, those are always good
times.”
WIFE: “Would she use my clubs?”
HUSBAND: “No, she’s left-handed.”
WIFE: ( ... silence ... )
HUSBAND: “Crap.”

The Message
One day, God was looking down at earth and saw all of the
rascally behavior that was going on. So He called one of His
angels and sent the angel to earth for a time.
When he returned, he told God, “Yes, it is bad on earth; 95%
are misbehaving and only 5% are not.”
God thought for a moment and said, “Maybe I had better
send down a second angel to get another opinion.”

God was not pleased. So He decided to send a message to the
5% who were good, because he wanted to encourage them,
and give them a little something to help them keep going.
Do you know what the message said?

were surveyed and asked for
stories of unusual behavior by
job applicants. The lowlights:
- “...stretched out on the
floor to fill out the job
application.”
- “She wore a Walkman and
said she could listen to me
and the music at the same
time.”
- “a balding candidate
abruptly excused himself.
Returned to office a few
minutes later, wearing a

isn’t it ironic..?

“The past is an old armchair in the attic,
the present an ominous ticking sound, and
the future is anybody’s guess.”
– James Thurber
A woman was having a medical problem - her husband’s snoring. So she
called the doctor one morning and asked him if there was anything he
could do to relieve her “suffering.”
“Well, there is one operation I can perform that will cure your husband,
but it is really rather expensive. It will cost $1000 down and payments of
$450 for 24 months, plus payments for extras.”
“My goodness!” the woman exclaimed, “it sounds like leasing a new
sports car!”
“Humm,” the doctor murmured, “too obvious, huh?”

When the grieving widow

in a faint. at the sound, her

and saw this note on the

“No, it’s not that,” says George. “There was that case from
many years ago where a person that was buried here in
Jerusalem rose from the dead after three days. I just can’t
take that chance.”
Standish Motel
Two old men were arguing the merits of their doctors.
The first one said, “I don’t trust your fancy doctor.
He treated old Jake Waxman for a kidney ailment for
nearly a year, and then Jake died of a liver ailment.”
“So what makes you think your doctor is any better?”
asked his friend.
“Because when my doctor treats you for a kidney
ailment, you can be sure you’ll die of a kidney
ailment.”

for the remains normally decides to bury the body here. This
would only cost $150.00.
The Consul, after hearing this, says, “You must have loved
your mother-in-law very much consdering the difference in

The Consul, after hearing of the death of the mother-in-law
told George that the sending of a body back to the states
for burial is very, very expensive. It could cost as much as
$5,000.00.
George thinks for some time and answers, “I don’t care how
much it will cost to send the body back; that’s what I want to
do.”

An cowboy walks into a cafe with a shotgun in one hand and pulling a male

A funeral service is being held for a woman who
has just passed away. At the end of the service the
pallbearers are carrying the casket out when they
accidentally bump into a wall, jarring the casket.
They hear a faint moan. They open the casket and find
that the woman is actually alive! She lives for ten more
years, and then finally dies. A ceremony is again held
at the same place, and at the end of the ceremony the
pallbearers are again carrying out the casket. As they
are walking, the husband cries out,
“Watch the wall!”

candy dispenser that was shaped like a miniature person.
“How does that thing work?” she asked.
As I turned the figurine’s arm to pop candy out, my

said. “You have to twist his arm to get anything out of
him.”

Lots of heart at the Bolton where we
toast to the good people of the world!
A man left work Friday afternoon, but, instead of going home,
he stayed out the entire weekend, hunting with the boys and
spending his paycheck without telling his wife.
When he appeared at home, Sunday night, he was confronted by
his very angry spouse, who barraged him for two hours with a
tirade of yelling.
Finally, she stopped the nagging and simply said to him, “How
would you like it if you didn’t see me for two or three days?”
To which he replied, “That would be fine with me.”
So, Monday went by and he didn’t see his wife.
Tuesday and Wednesday came and went with the same results.
“Technology is a way of organizing the universe
so that man doesn’t have to experience it.”

I would like to go to
Conclusions, but you have to
jump, and I’m not too much on
physical activity anymore.
I have also been in Doubt. That
is a sad place to go, and I try
not to visit there too often.
I’ve been in Flexible, but only
when it was very important to
stand firm.
Sometimes I’m in Capable, and
I go there more often as I’m
getting older.
One of my favorite places to be
is in Suspense! It really gets the
adrenalin flowing and pumps
up the old heart! At my age I
need all the stimuli I can get!
I may have been in Continent,
and I don’t remember what
country I was in. It’s an age
thing.

So the doctor brought the jar out, opened it, and told Mr. Thompson to taste
it. He tasted it and immediately spit it out, “This is gross!” he yelled. “Looks
like I just restored your sense of taste Mr. Thompson,” said the doctor. So
Mr. Thompson went home.... very mad.
The doctor scratched his head and mumbled to himself a little, then told Mr.
Thompson, “What you need is jar number 47.”
Grumpy old Mr. Thompson went to visit this ‘miracle doctor’ to prove that he
wasn’t anybody special. When it was time for his appointment he told the
doctor, “Hey, doc, I’ve lost my sense of taste. I can’t taste nothin’, so what
are ya goin’ to do?”
A new doctor had arrived in town. He could cure anything and anybody.
Everyone was amazed with what he could do - everyone except for Mr.
Thompson, the town skeptic.

A boy is about to go on his first date, and is nervous about what to talk about. He
asks his father for advice.
the father replies: “My son, there are three subjects that always work. these are
food, family, and philosophy.”
the boy picks up his date and they go to a soda fountain. ice cream sodas in front
of them, they stare at each other for a long time, as the boy’s nervousness builds.
He remembers his father’s advice, and chooses the first topic.
He asks the girl: “Do you like spinach?” She says “No,” and the silence returns.
after a few more uncomfortable minutes, the boy thinks of his father’s suggestion
and turns to the second item on the list. He asks, “Do you have a brother?” again,
the girl says “No” and there is silence once again.

Leaving Minnesota for
Colorado, I decide to make
a stop at one of those rest
areas on the side of the road.
I go in the washroom. The
first stall was taken so I went
in the second stall. I just sat
down when I hear a voice
from the next stall...
IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU...

- “Hi there, how is it going?”
Amazing Paths
Okay, I am not the type to
strike conversations with
strangers in washrooms on
the side of the road. I didn’t
know what to say so finally

Then the voice says:
- “So, what are you doing?”
I am starting to find that a bit
weird, but I say:
A visitor to a certain college paused to admire
the new Hemingway Hall that had been built on
campus.
- “Well, I’m going back to
Colorado...”
“It’s a pleasure to see a building named for Ernest
Hemingway,” he said.
Then I hear the person say all
flustered:
“Actually,” said his guide, “it’s named for Joshua
Hemingway. No relation.”
- “Look I’ll call you back,
every time I ask you a
question this idiot in the next
stall keeps answering me.”
The visitor was astonished. “Was Joshua
Hemingway a writer, also?”
“Yes, indeed,” said his guide. “He wrote a check.”
