    The Perfect Quarterback

    The coach had put together the perfect team for the New Orleans Saints. The
    only thing missing was a good quarterback. He had scouted all the colleges
    and even the Canadian and European Leagues, but he couldn't find a ringer
    who could ensure a Super Bowl victory.
    Then one night, while watching CNN, he saw a war-zone scene in Afghanistan.
    In one corner of the background, he spotted a young Afghan Muslim soldier
    with a truly incredible arm. He threw a hand-grenade straight into a window
    from 80 yards away. Then he threw another from 50 yards down a chimney, and
    then hit a passing car going 80 miles per hour.
    I've got to get this guy!" coach said to himself. "He has the perfect arm!"
    So, he brings the young Afghan to the States and teaches him the great game
    of football ...... and sure enough the Saints go on to win the Super Bowl.
    The young Afghan is hailed as a hero of football, and when the coach asks
    him what he wants; all the young man wants to do is call his mother.
    "Mom," he says into the phone, "I just won the Super Bowl!"
    "I don't want to talk to you," the old Muslim woman says. "You deserted us.
    You are not my son!"
    "Mother, I don't think you understand," pleads the son, "I've just won the
    greatest sporting event in the world!"
    "No! let me tell you," his mother retorts. "At this very moment there are
    gunshots all around us. The neighborhood is a pile of rubble. Your two
    brothers were beaten within an inch of their lives last week, and I have to
    keep your sister in the house so she doesn't get raped!" The old lady pauses
    then tearfully says, "I will never forgive you for making us move to New
    Orleans!"



    and



    Donald Rumsfeld gave the president his daily briefing which he concluded by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed in an accident"

    "Oh Dear God, no!!!" George W. Bush exclaims. "That's terrible!!"

    His staff sat stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the president cradled his head in hands. Finally, the President, devastated, looked up and asked: "How many is a Brazillion??!"

    The new Embessador of Saudia arrives in Washington and the Secretary of Foreign Affairs shows him the town. The Embessador is very pleased. At the end he says:
    I have to ask you one question. My son is a big fan of Science Fiction, especially Enterprise and Star Wars. He asked me: Why are there so many people from different races like colored or Japanese but not a single Arab?
    The Secretary answers: Well, that is simple. They play in the future, don't they?

    Soly wins the "Punchline of the week" hat.
    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

    A man in Phoenix calls his son in New York the day before Thanksgiving and
    says, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and
    I are divorcing; forty-five years of misery is enough."

    "Pop, what are you talking about?" the son screams.

    "We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the father says. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her."

    Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck
    they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this."

    She calls Phoenix immediately, and screams at her father, "You are NOT
    getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my
    brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a
    thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?" and hangs up.

    The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay," he says,
    "they're coming for Thanksgiving and paying their own way."

    Although some might find the last one offensive, I think...

    Anyway:

    Bill Gates died. When arriving at Heaven's Gate, he encounters St. Peter. St. Peter tells him: "Bill, because I like you, I'm doing you a special favour. I'm going to show you both Heaven and Hell, and then you yourself may decide where you would like to spend eternity." "All right", says Bill Gates, "Sounds good". So Peter shows him Heaven first. Bill looks around him and sees many rather dull clouds on which a few rather boring people spend an eternity singing psalms and praising the Lord and doing rather dull stuff. After this, they go to Hell. Bill sees a big party, with all kinds of beautiful women and all the pleasures he could imagine. Peter asks: "So, where would you like to stay?" "Well," says Bill, "I rather like the sight of Hell, so I think I'll stay here." "All right", says Peter, "I leave you be then. I'll check up on you in about a week to see how it's going."
    A week later, St. Peter returns to Bill Gates in Hell and asks: "And, how do you like it?" "It's horrible!", says Bill Gates, "It's awfully hot and people keep hurting me and burning me and little devils prod me with little pitchforks. It's not like you showed me at all!!" "Ah", says St. Peter. "But that was only a demo."

    NEVER QUESTION A DRUNK
    A woman was shopping at her local supermarket where she selected:

    A half-gallon of 2% milk,
    A carton of eggs,
    A quart of orange juice,
    A head of romaine lettuce,
    A 2 lb. can of coffee,
    And a 1 lb. package of bacon.

    As she was unloading her items on the conveyor belt to check out, a
    drunk standing behind her watched as she placed the items in front of
    the cashier.

    While the cashier was ringing up her purchases, the drunk calmly
    stated," You must be single."

    The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation, but she was
    intrigued by the derelict's intuition, since she was indeed single. She
    looked at her six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about
    her selections that could have tipped off the drunk to her marital status.

    Curiosity getting the better of her, she said "Well, you know what,
    you're absolutely correct. But how on earth did you know that?"

    The drunk replied, "'Cause you're ugly"

    For some reason, I didn't find that one to be as funny as I thought I should- I will say, however, that is a very good joke.

    As long as we are on the subject of drunks:

    Two drunks are sitting at a bar. Suddenly, one of them starts sniffing the air. He turns to the other drunk and says, "Did you just **** your pants?"

    The second drunk replies, "No, I didn't!"

    The two sit in silence for a little while, until finally the first drunk says, "Are you sure?"

    The second drunk says, "I did not **** my pants!"

    The first drunk sniffs the air again and says, "You lyin' bastard, you did! You sat right there and **** in your pants!"

    The second drunk replies, "Like hell I did!"

    The first drunk says, "I'll bet you twenty dollars that you **** in your pants!"

    The second drunk says, "All right!"

    So they go out back, and the first drunk tells the other to pull down his pants. He does so, and the first drunk points: "See? Right there! You did **** your pants!"

    The second drunk replies, "Aw hell, I thought you meant today."

    This joke is probably better told face to face.

    The next week the farmer goes to town again. The horse and chicken play in the yard and this time the chicken gets stuck in some mud. The chicken yells at the horse for him to go get the BMW to pull him out. The horse instead stradles the mud and the chicken hangs on to his member while the horse pulls him to safety.

    Facts scarier than fiction:

    20% of Americans believed the sun revolves around the earth.
    (that is true btw - PB, Nov 2005)
    17% know better, and know the earth revolves around the sun - however, they believe it happens every 24 hours.

    Facts are funnier than fictitious jokes. Some Americans are just plain jokes (take Bush for instance).

    Bill Clinton and the Pope died on the same day and, due to an administrative foulup, Clinton was sent to heaven and the Pope was sent to hell.

    The Pope explained the situation to the devil, who checked out all of the paperwork, and the error was acknowledged. The Pope was told, however, that it would take about 24 hours to correct the error.

    The next day, the Pope was called in and the devil said his good-bye to the Pope as he went off to heaven.

    On his way up, the Pope met Clinton who was on his way down, and they stopped to chat.

    "Sorry about the mix up," the pope says.

    "No problem!" Clinton replies, always the schmoozer.

    "Well, I'm really excited about going to heaven," the pontiff says.

    "Why is that?" Clinton said, speaking from his experience. "It's not that big a deal. The streets aren't really paved with gold or anything."

    "It's not the luxuries that matter to me," the pope replies, "it's the people there. All my life I've wanted to meet the Virgin Mary."

    "Oh, sorry, your Holiness," Clinton says, suddenly feeling a bit sheepish. "But you're about a day late."

    A wealthy old man decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking his
    faithful aged poodle named Curly, along for the company.

    One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long, Curly
    discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a leopard heading
    rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.

    The old poodle thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep doo-doo now!" Noticing some
    bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the
    bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to
    leap, the old poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard!
    I wonder if there are any more around here?"

    Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of
    terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!", says the
    leopard, "That was close! That old poodle nearly had me!"

    Meanwhile, a monkey who had been wat ching the whole scene from a nearby
    tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for
    protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old poodle sees him
    heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must
    be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and
    strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.

    The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here,
    monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving
    canine!"

    Now, the old poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and
    thinks, "What am I going to do now?", but instead of running, the dog sits
    down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and
    just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle says: "Where's that
    damn monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"

    Moral of this story..

    An old one, from the cold war...

    The CIA administration, enraged that all of their agents are uncovered and them being unable to plant a successful spy in mother Russia, take it seriously and elect the most talented one at hand. He's given a perfect education in Russian language, various dialects and accents of it, its literature; Russian customs, culture, lifestyle et al. After a long time's hard work, the agent is a perfect Russian.

    They drop him under utmost stealth near a godforsaken village in Siberia. He advances to the village and perfectly imitates a lost farmer from a remote village. They give him blankets, vodka et al and seat nearby a stove.

    One of the elderly asks:

    ― So, you're American eh?

    Shocked, the agent proclaims in his perfect Russian:

    ― How come?! How do you think such nonsense?

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    ― Well, we don't have many black people in these parts.

    An exhibition of a Soviet painter's artist is organized in New York. Both Soviet and American diplomats show up as a sign of mutual friendship hoax. One of the Americans tell his Russian colleague:

    ― Honestly, excellency, I don't see anything outstanding in these paintings. They're all mediocre.

    The Russian calmly replies:

    ― And you killed children in Vietnam!
