Mildred, the church gossip, self-appointed monitor of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose into other people's business. Several members did not approve of her extra curricular activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence. She made a mistake, however, when she accused Henry, a new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old pickup truck parked in front of the town's only bar one afternoon. She emphatically told Henry and several others that everyone seeing it there would know what he was doing. Henry, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just turned and walked away. He didn't explain, defend, or deny. He said nothing. Later that evening, Henry quietly parked his pickup in front of Mildred's house . . Walked home . . . And left it there all night. You gotta love people like Henry.

During a Eucharistic Congress, a number of priests from different orders are gathered in a church for Vespers. While they are praying, a fuse blows and all the lights go out.

The Benedictines continue praying from memory, without missing a beat.

The Jesuits begin to discuss whether the blown fuse means they are dispensed from the obligation to pray Vespers.

The Franciscans compose a song of praise for God's gift of darkness.

The Dominicans revisit their ongoing debate on light as a signification of the transmission of divine knowledge.

The Carmelites fall into silence and slow, steady breathing.

The parish priest, who is hosting the others, goes to the basement and replaces the fuse.

A Highway patrolman pulled Sister Theresa over for driving too slow on a major highway.

Cop: The minimum speed on this highway is 50 mph - you were driving too slow.

Sister: Your mistaken officier, the sign there says that it is 30 - which is what I was doing.

Cop: That's the highway # not the speed limit. You are on highway 30 and tell me why do all your passingers look so scared?

Sister (sheepishly): We just came off highway 121.

A blonde, wanting to earn some extra money decided to hire herself out as a handywoman and started canvassing the neighborhoods.

She went to the front door of the first house and asked the owner if he had any odd jobs for her to do.

"Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint my porch," he said. "How much will you charge me?" The blonde quickly responded, "How about $50?"

The man agreed and told her that the paint and everything she would need was in the garage.

The man's wife, hearing the conversation, said to her husband, "Does she realize that our porch goes all the way around the house?" He responded, "That's a bit cynical, isn't it?"


The wife replied, "You're right. I guess I'm starting to believe all those dumb blonde jokes ."

A short time later, the blonde handywoman came to the door to collect her money."You finished already?" the husband asked.

"Yes," the blonde replied, "and I had paint leftover, so I gave it two coats - no extra charge."

Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50 and handed it to her.

"And by the way," the blonde added ... "it's not a Porch -- it's a Lexus."

Four blondes walk into a bar and order a round of drinks to mark the obvious occasion of some sort of celebration. They all lifted their glasses and shouted with all due excitement, 27! 27! 27! 27! They finished their drinks, ordered another round and celebrated with the same toast. This happened a third time when the bartender asked what the special occasion was.

"Well," said the tallest blonde, "We completed a puzzle! The box said 3-5 years and it only took us 27 days!"

This farmer had a rather large three-legged pig. It was brought to the attention of the local newspaper, and a reporter was sent out to interview the farmer.

Tell me, said the reporter, how do you come to have a three-legged pig?

Well, said the farmer, this is a valuable pig. One day my four year old son fell in the pond over there, and this pig went running as fast as could be, and jumped into the pond and pushed my son up onto dry ground.

That's amazing, said the reporter, but how is it the pig only has three legs?

Well, said the farmer, this is a valuable pig. One night, we heard this squealing and grunting, and banging on our front door. I got up to see what the ruckus was, and the house was on fire. Thanks to the pig, I was able to save my family.

Truly unbelievable, said the reporter, but how does that relate to the pig only having three legs?

Well, said the farmer,when you have a valuable pig like that, you just don't eat him all at one time!

The Pope in Alaska

The Pope took a couple of days off to visit the mountains of Alaska for some sight-seeing. He was cruising along the campground in the Pope Mobile when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the woods.

A helpless Democrat, wearing sandals, shorts, a "Save the Whales" hat, and a "To Hell with Bush" T-shirt, was screaming while struggling frantically, thrashing around trying to free himself from the grasp of a 10-foot grizzly.

As the Pope watched horrified, a group of Republican loggers came racing up. One quickly fired a .44-magnum into the bear's chest. The other two reached up and pulled the bleeding, semiconscious Democrat from the bear's grasp.

Then using long clubs, the three loggers finished off the bear and two of them threw it onto the bed of their truck while the other tenderly placed the injured Democrat in the back seat.

As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions," he told them. "I heard there was a bitter hatred between Republican loggers and Democratic Environmental activists but now I've seen with my own eyes that this is not true."

As the Pope drove off, one of the loggers asked his buddies "Who was that guy?"

"It was the Pope," another replied. "He's in direct contact with heaven and has access to all wisdom."

"Well," the logger said, "he may have access to all wisdom but he sure as Hell doesn't know anything about bear hunting! By the way, is the bait holding up, or do we need to go back to Massachusetts and snatch another one?"

DEAF WIFE

A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family Doctor to discuss the problem.
 
The Doctor told him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give the Doctor a better idea about her hearing loss. Here's what you do," said the Doctor, "stand about 40 feet away from her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a response."
 
 
That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in the den. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens." Then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?"
 
No response.
 
So the husband moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
 
Still no response.
 
Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his wife and asks, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
 
Again he gets no response.
 
So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away. "Honey, what's for dinner?" Again there is no response.
 
So he walks right up behind her. "Honey, what's for dinner?"
 
"Ralph, for the FIFTH  time,



CHICKEN!"

A doctor, a nurse, and the CEO of an HMO were involved in a fatal three-car crash. At the gate of heaven Saint Peter asked each of them in turn what they had done while on earth to merit entrance into heaven. The doctor said, "I treated anyone who needed care without concern for their ability to pay." Saint Peter said, "Welcome to the joy of heaven!" Then he turned to the nurse who answered, "I also cared for the poor without concern for money." "You also are welcome to enter heaven" said Peter. Finally he turned to the CEO and asked, "What have you done while on earth?" "I was the president of an HMO! We provided managed access to healthcare for all our paying members." Saint Peter paused and thought about this, then responded, "You also may come into heaven -- but you can only stay for five days."

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept
staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby
table.

My wife asked, 'Do you know her?' 'Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend.
I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since.'

'My God!' says my wife, 'Who would think a person could go on celebrating
that long?'

And then the fight started.....

I rear-ended a car this morning.
So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out

You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and things just

He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, 'I AM NOT HAPPY!!!'

So, I looked down at him and said, 'Well, then which one are you?'

While shopping in a food store, two nuns happened to pass by the
beer, wine, and liquor section. One asked the other if she would like a
beer.

The second nun answered that, indeed, it would be very nice to have
one, but that she would feel uncomfortable about purchasing it.

The first nun replied that she would handle that without a
problem. She picked up a six-pack and took it to the cashier.

The cashier had a surprised look, so the nun said, "This is for
washing our hair."

Without blinking an eye, the cashier reached under the counter and
put a package of pretzel sticks in the bag with the beer.

"The curlers are on me."

3 farmers are sitting around a bar. An Irishman a Muslim and an Australian.
One of the picks up an old dusty bottle and gives it a rub and a huge Genie pops out.

"Ok gentlemen" he says "I normally give out 3 wishes to one person but seeing that there are 3 of you her you can have one wish each.

The Irishman goes first and wishes that Ireland be green for evermore.

The Muslim wishes that there be a huge wall built around every Muslim community around the world, no one gets in, no one gets out and they can live in peace and harmony. "Done sir" says the Genie.

The Genie looks at the Ozy and says 'Ok sir, your turn, what would you like?'
The Australian thinks about it for a little while and then asks 'Tell me more about this wall you just built for the Muslims" "Well it's 5000 feet high and 5000 feet wide no one can get in and no one can get out"replies the Genie. So the Aussie says....

In the South...

If you run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in a four-wheel drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them, just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.
 
 
Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store....do not buy food at this store.

 
Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later on how to use it.
 
 
Get used to hearing 'You ain't from round here, are ya?'
 
 
Don't be worried at not understanding what people are saying. They can't understand you either. The first Southern statement to creep into a transplanted Northerner's vocabulary is the adjective 'big'ol,' truck or big'ol' boy. Most Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of them are in denial about it.
 
 
The proper pronunciation you learned in school is no longer proper.
 
 
Be advised that 'He needed killin.' is a valid legal defense here.
 
 
If you hear a Southerner exclaim, 'Hey, y'all, watch this,' you should stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he'll ever say.
 
 
If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest accuмulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not. You just have to go there.
 
 
Do not be surprised to find that 10-year olds own their own shotguns, they are proficient marksmen, and their mammas taught them how to aim.
 
 
In the South, we have found that the best way to grow a lush green lawn is to pour gravel on it and call it a driveway.

 
AND REMEMBER: If you do settle in the South and bear children, don't think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had kittens in the oven, we wouldn't call 'em biscuits.

One day a traveling salesman was driving down the road about 30 mph when he noticed running along side the car was a three legged chicken. The salesman stepped on the gas and brought the car up to 50 but the chicken was still outpacing him when a mile down the road the chicken ran up a driveway to a farm and into the barn behind it the man just had to follow. At the farmhouse he knocked on the door and told the farmer what he had seen. The farmer said he knew about the chicken and in fact his son who a geneticist had developed this breed of bird. He said he had developed it because there were three of them and when they had chicken for supper they each wanted a drumstick. This way they only had to kill one chicken to satisfy everyone. The salesman declared,"That is the most fantastic story I've ever heard,how do they taste?"  "I don't know" replied the farmer "Never caught one"

And promptly jumps out of the plane to his death.

Shocked by his sacrifice they find the next words of the pilot hard to bear
"We still need to lose more weight! Someone else has to go!"

Paddy scots man steps up to the door
giving one last moving look to the others he says
"I do this for the glory of Scotland!" and jumps to his death.

Pilot: "Just one more and I think we can make it!"

Paddy Irishman and paddy Englishman are the only 2 left.

Paddy Irish man thinks for a moment and then says
"I do this for the glory of Ireland"
he then grabs paddy Englishman and throws him out of the plane.
