  1. Couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. During a check-up, the doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember ..

    Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. 'Want anything while I'm in the kitchen?' he asks.

    'Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?'

    'Sure.'

    'Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?' she asks.

    'No, I can remember it.'

    'Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should write it down, so as not to forget it?'

    He says, 'I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.'

    'I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, write it down?' she asks.

    Irritated, he says, 'I don't need to write it down, I can remember it! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream - I got it, for goodness sake!'

    Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, the old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment.

    'Where's my toast?'

     

     

    An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.

    The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, 'Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly.'

    The other man said, 'What is the name of the restaurant?'

    The first man thought and thought and finally said, 'Whats the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know, the one that's red and has thorns.'

    'Do you mean a rose?'

    'Yes, that's the one,' replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, 'Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?'

     

     

    Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital.

    After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator.

    On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.

    'I don't know,' he said. 'She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown.'

     

     

     

    A senior citizen said to his eighty-year old buddy:

    'So I hear you're getting married?'

    'Yep!'

    'Do I know her?'

    'Nope!'

    'This woman, is she good looking?'

    'Not really.'

    'Is she a good cook?'

    'Naw, she can't cook too well.'

    'Does she have lots of money?'

    'Nope! Poor as a church mouse.'

    'Well, then, is she good in bed?'

    'I don't know.'

    'Why in the world do you want to marry her then?'

    'Because she can still drive!'

     

     

    A man was telling his neighbour, 'I just bought a new hearing aid. It cost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art. It's perfect.'

    'Really,' answered the neighbour. 'What kind is it?'

    'Twelve thirty.'

     

     

    Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical.

    A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.

    A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, 'You're really doing great, aren't you?'

    Morris replied, 'Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get a hot mamma and be cheerful.''

    The doctor said, 'I didn't say that.. I said, 'You've got a heart murmur; be careful.'

     

     

    One more. . .!

    A little old man shuffled slowly into an ice cream parlour and pulled himself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool... After catching his breath, he ordered a banana split.

    The waitress asked kindly, 'Crushed nuts?'

    'No,' he replied, 'Arthritis.'

     

     

     

  2. You've been waiting for them with bated breath, so without further ado, here are the 2016 Darwin Awards: 

     

    8th Place

     In Detroit, a 41-year-old man got stuck and drowned in two feet of water after squeezing head first through an 18-inch-wide sewer grate to retrieve his car keys. 

     

    7th Place

     A 49-year-old San Francisco stockbroker who, "totally zoned when he ran," accidentally jogged off a 100-foot high cliff on his daily run. 

     

    6th Place

    While at the beach, Daniel Jones, 21, dug an 8 foot hole for protection from the wind and had been sitting in a beach chair at the bottom, when it collapsed, burying him beneath 5 feet of sand. People on the beach used their hands and shovels trying to get him out but could not reach him. It took rescue workers using heavy equipment almost an hour to free him. Jones was pronounced dead at a hospital. 

     

    5th Place 

    Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed as he fell through the ceiling of a bicycle shop he was burglarizing. Death was caused when the long flashlight he had placed in his mouth to keep his hands free rammed into the base of his s kull as he hit the floor. 

     

    4th Place

    Sylvester Briddell, Jr., 26, was killed as he won a bet with friends who sa id he would not put a revolver loaded with four bullets into his mouth and pull the trigger. 

     

    3rd Place

    After stepping around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door, a man walked into H&J Leather & Firearms intent on robbing the store. The shop was full of customers and a uniformed officer was standing at the counter. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up and fired a few wild shots from a target pistol. 

     The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, and several customers also drew their guns and fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47 expended cartrid ge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from 7 different weapons. No one else was hurt. 

     

    Honorable Mention

    Paul Stiller, 47, and his wife Bonnie were bored just driving around at 2 A.M. so they lit a quarter stick of dynamite to toss out the window to see what would happen. Apparently they failed to notice that the window was closed. 

     

    Runner-Up

     Kerry Bingham had been drinking with several friends when one of them said they knew a person who had bungee-jumped from a local bridge in the middle of traffic. The conversation grew more excited, and at least 10 men trooped along the walkway of the bridge at 4:30 AM. Upon arrival at the midpoint of the bridge, they discovered that no one had brought a bungee rope. Bingham, who had continued drinking, volunteered and pointed out that a coil of lineman's cable lay nearby. They secured one end around Bingham's leg and then tied the other to the bridge. His fall lasted 40 feet before the cable tightened and tore his foot off at the ankle. He miraculously survived his fall into the icy water and was rescued by two nearby fishermen. Bingham's foot was never located. 

     

    And the Winner is....

     Zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt (Paderborn, Germany) fed his constipated elephant 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally got relief. Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded. The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock as the elephant continued to evacuate 200 pounds of dung on top of him. It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that proves... 'Shit happens'

  3. A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk and if they have avocados, get 6.

     

    A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk.  The wife asks him, "Why did you buy 6 cartons of milk?"

     

    He replied, "They had avocados."

     

    If you're a woman, I'm sure you're going back to read it again!  Men will get it the first time.

     

    My work is done here.

     

     

    WATER IN THE CARBURETOR

     

    WIFE:  "There is trouble with the car.  It has water in the carburetor."

     

    HUSBAND:  "Water in the carburetor?  That's ridiculous "

     

    WIFE:  "I tell you the car has water in the carburetor."

     

    HUSBAND:  "You don't even know what a carburetor is.  I'll check it out.

     

    Where's the car?

     

    WIFE: "In the pool".

     

    STATISTIC

     

    THIS IS A FRIGHTENING STATISTIC , PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST WORRISOME IN RECENT YEARS.

     

    25% of the women in this country are on medication for mental illness.

     

    That's scary.  It means 75% are running around untreated...

     

    THE PHONE 

    A young man wanted to get his beautiful blonde wife something nice for their first wedding anniversary.  So he decided to buy her a cell phone.  He showed her the phone and explained to her all of its features.

     

    Meg was excited to receive the gift and simply adored her new phone.

     

    The next day Meg went shopping.  Her phone rang and, to her astonishment, it was her husband on the other end.

     

    "Hi Meg," he said, "how do you like your new phone?"

     

    Meg replied, "I just love it!  It's so small and your voice is clear as a bell, but there's one thing I don't understand though..."

     

    "What's that, sweetie?" asked her husband.

     

    "How did you know I was at Wall-Mart?"

     

    HE MUST PAY

     

    Husband and wife had a tiff. Wife called up her mom and said, "He fought with me again, I am coming to live with you."

     

    Mom said, "No darling, he must pay for his mistake.  I am coming to live with you.

     

     

    TODAY'S SHORT READING FROM THE BIBLE

     

    From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."

     

    Then he made the earth round... and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

     

  4. Donald Trump and Barack Obama went to the same barbershop for a shave.
    As they sat there, each being worked on by a different barber, not a word was spoken.
    The... barbers were even afraid to start a conversation, for fear it would turn to politics.
    As the barbers finished their shaves, the one who had Trump in his chair reached for the aftershave.
    Trump was quick to stop him saying, 'No thanks, if my wife smells that she will think I've been in a whorehouse,'
    The second barber turned to Obama and said, 'How about you?'
    Obama replied, 'Go ahead, my wife doesn't know what a whorehouse smells like.'1f642.png

  5. Little Johnny watched his daddy's car pass by the school playground and go into the woods. Curious, he followed the car and saw Daddy and Aunt Jane in a passionate embrace.

     

    Little Johnny found this so exciting that he could hardly contain himself as he ran home and started to tell his mother. 'Mummy, I was at the playground and I saw Daddy's car go into the woods with Aunt Jane. I went back to look and he was giving Aunt Jane a big kiss, and then he helped her take off her shirt. Then Aunt Jane helped Daddy take his pants off, then Aunt Jane...'

     

    At this point Mummy cut him off and said, 'Johnny, this is such an interesting story, lets save the rest of it for supper time. I want to see the look on Daddy's face when you tell it tonight.'

     

    At the dinner table that evening, Mummy asked little Johnny to tell his story. Johnny started his story, 'I was at the playground and I saw Daddy's car go into the woods with Aunt Jane. I went back to look and he was giving Aunt Jane a big kiss, then he helped her take off her skirt. Then Aunt Jane helped Daddy take his pants off, then Aunt Jane and Daddy started doing the same thing that Mummy and Uncle Bill used to do when Daddy was away on the oil rigs...'

     

    Mummy fainted!

    Moral:

    Sometimes you need to just shut up and listen to the whole story before you interrupt!

    8) Your wife's hairdo was once ruined by a ceiling fan.

    9) Your junior prom offered day care.

    10) You think the last words of the Star-Spangled Banner are 'Gentlemen, start your engines.'

    11) You lit a match in the bathroom and your house exploded, right off its wheels.

    12) The Halloween pumpkin on your porch has more teeth than your spouse.

    13) You have to go outside to get something from the fridge.

    14) One of your kids was born on a pool table.

    15) You need one more hole punched in your card to get a freebie at the House of Tattoos.

    16) You can't get married to your sweetheart because there's a law against it.

    17) You think loading the dishwasher means getting your wife drunk.

    And in closing . . .

    Two good ol' boys in a Arkansas trailer park were sitting around talking one afternoon over a cold beer after getting off work at the local horse trailer manufacturing plant.

    After a while the first guy says to the second, "If'n I was to sneak over to your trailer Saturday and make love to your wife while you was off huntin' and she got pregnant and had a baby, would that make us kin?"

    The second guy crooked his head sideways for a minute, scratched his head and squinted his eyes, thinking real hard about the question.  Finally, he says, "Well, I don't know about kin, but it sure would make us even!"

     

    NOW Y'ALL HAVE A GOOD DAY!
