Scotch and Water
This story is for Senior Citizens. If you don't yet qualify,
save a copy till you do.
A lady goes to the bar on a cruise ship and orders a Scotch
with two drops of water.
The bartender gives her the drink, and she says, "I'm on this
cruise to celebrate my 80th birthday and it's today."
The bartender says, "Well, since it's your birthday, this one
is on me."
As the woman finishes her drink, the woman to her right says,
"I would like to buy you a drink, too."
The woman says, "Thank you, how sweet of you.
OK then, Bartender, I want a Scotch
with two drops of water."
"Coming up," says the bartender.
As she finishes that drink, the man to her left says,
"I would like to buy you a drink too."
The woman says, "Thank you very much my dear.
Bartender, I'll have another Scotch
with two drops of water."
"Coming right up," the bartender says.
As he gives her the drink this time, he says,
"Ma'am, I'm dying of curiosity.
Why the Scotch with only two drops of water?"
The old woman giggles and replies,
"Sonny, when you're my age,
you've learned how to hold your liquor.
Water, however, is a whole other issue!"

Mary the Mental Patient Saves Jim - Sort of!
Jim and Mary were both patients in a Mental Hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim
suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sunk to the bottom & stayed there.
Mary promptly jumped in to save him.
She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.
When the medical director became aware of Mary's heroic act he immediately
ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as he now considered her
to be mentally stable.
When he went to tell Mary the news he said, "Mary, I have good news & bad
news. The good news is you're being discharged because since you were able
to jump in and save the life of another patient, I think you've regained
your senses. The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself
with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom. I am so sorry, but he's dead."
Mary replied "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry."

a nearby French Army garrison to surrender to a group of Czech
tourists.

Miss Beatrice, the church organist, was in her eighties and had never
been married. She was admired for her sweetness and kindness to all.
One afternoon the pastor came to call on her and she showed him into her
quaint sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while she prepared
tea.
As he sat facing her old pump organ, the young minister noticed a
cut-glass bowl sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled with water. In
the water floated, of all things, a condom!
When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat. The pastor
tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange
floater, but soon it got the better of him and he could no
longer resist.
"Miss Beatrice", he said. "I wonder if you would tell me about this?"
pointing to the bowl.
"Oh, yes" she replied, "isn't it wonderful? I was walking
through the park a few months ago and I found this little package on the
ground. The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it
wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease. Do you know I
haven't had the flu all winter.

Road Rage - Women & Why Math is Taught in School
Why Math is taught in School
(Written By A Very Wise Man)
I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut
right in front of a pickup truck, causing him to have to drive onto
the shoulder to avoid hitting her.
This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his arm out
his window and gave the woman the finger.
"Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself.
I ALWAYS smile nicely and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a
female does anything to me in traffic, and here's why I drive 48
miles each way every day to work. That's 96 miles each day.
Of these, 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the
bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane highway.
There are 7 cars every 40 feet for 32 miles. That works out to be
982 cars every mile, or 31,424 cars.
Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper-to-bumper, I
figure I pass at least another 4000 cars.
That brings the number to something like 36,000 cars that I pass
every day. Statistically, females drive half of these.
That's 18,000 women drivers!
In any given group of females, 1 in 28 has PMS. That's 642.
According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life is
dissatisfying or unrewarding.
That's 449.
According to the National Institute of Health, 22% of all females
have seriously considered suicide or homicide.
That's 98.
And 34% describe men as their biggest problem. That's 33.
According to the National Rifle Association, 5% of all females carry
weapons and this number is increasing.
That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least one female
that has a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has
seriously considered suicide or homicide, has PMS, and is armed.
Give one the finger? ...... I think not.
*************************************************
Strange 'New Rules'
NEW RULES
New Rule: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it
doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above the crack of your ass.
And it translates to "beef with broccoli." The last time you did
anything spiritual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant.
You're not spiritual. You're just high.
New Rule: Stop giving me that pop-up ad for Classmates.com! There's
a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years. Because you don't
particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the captain of
the football team is doing these days: mowing my lawn.
New Rule: Don't eat anything that's served to you out a window
unless you're a seagull. People are acting all shocked that a human
finger was found in a bowl of Wendy's chili. Hey, it cost less than
a dollar. What did you expect it to contain? Trout? Luckily, it was
only a finger! If it was a whole hand, Congress would have voted to
keep it alive.
New Rule: Stop saying that teenage boys who have sex with their hot,
blond teachers are permanently damaged. I have a better description
for these kids: lucky bastards.
New Rule: Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone. Here's how much men
care about your eyebrows: do you have two of them? Okay, we're done.
New Rule: There's no such thing as flavored water. There's a whole
aisle of this crap at the supermarket, water, but without that
watery taste. Sorry, but flavored water is called a soft drink. You
want flavored water? Pour some scotch over ice and let it melt.
That's your flavored water.
New Rule: The more complicated the Starbucks order, the bigger the
asshole. If you walk into a Starbucks and order a "decaf grande
half-soy, half-low fat, iced vanilla, double-shot, gingerbread
cappuccino, extra dry, light ice, with one Sweet-n'-Low and one
NutraSweet," ooh, you're a huge asshole.
New Rule: Competitive eating isn't a sport. It's one of the seven
deadly sins. ESPN recently televised the US Open of Competitive
Eating, because watching those athletes at the poker table was just
too damned exciting. What's next, competitive farting? Oh wait.
They're already doing that. It's called "The Howard Stern Show."
New Rule: If you're going to insist on making movies based on
crappy, old television shows, then you have to give everyone in the
Cineplex a remote so we can see what's playing on the other screens.
Let's remember the reason something was a television show in the
first place is the idea wasn't good enough to be a movie.
New Rule: No more gift registries. You know, it used to be just for
weddings. Now it's for babies and new homes and graduations from
rehab. Picking up the stuff you want and having other people buy it
for you isn't gift giving, it's the white people version of looting.
New Rule, and this one is long overdue: No more bathroom attendants.
After I zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint like I
just had sex with George Michael. I can't even tell if he's supposed
to be there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don't want to be on
your web cam, dude. I just want to wash my hands.
New Rule: When I ask how old your toddler is, I don't need to know
in months. "27 Months." "He's two," will do just fine. He's not a
cheese. And I didn't really care in the first place.
*************************************************
A limo driver, after getting all of Pope Benedict's luggage loaded
into the limo (and he doesn't travel light), notices that the Pope is
still standing on the curb.
"Excuse me, Your Holiness," says the driver, "Would you please
take your seat so we can leave?
"Well, to tell you the truth," says the Pope, "they never let me
drive at the Vatican, and I'd really like to drive today"
"I'm sorry but I cannot let you do that I'd lose my job! What if
something should happen?" protests the driver, wishing he'd never
gone to work that morning.
"There might be something extra in it for you," says the Pope.
Reluctantly, the driver gets in the back as the Pope climbs in
behind the wheel.
The driver quickly regrets his decision when, after exiting the
airport, the Supreme Pontiff floors it, accelerating the limo to
105 mph.
"Please slow down, Your Holiness!!" pleads the worried driver, but
the Pope keeps the pedal to the metal until they hear sirens. "Oh, my
God, I'm gonna lose my license," moans the driver.
The Pope pulls over and rolls down the window as the cop
approaches, but the cop takes one look at him, goes back to his motorcycle,
and gets on the radio.
"I need to talk to the Chief," he says to the dispatcher. The
Chief gets on the radio and the cop tells him that he's stopped a limo
going a hundred and five.
"So bust him," said the Chief.
"I don't think we want to do that, he's really important," said
the cop.
The Chief then asked, "Who ya got there, the Mayor?"
Cop: "Bigger"
Chief: "Governor?"
Cop: "Bigger"
Chief: "Senator?"
Cop: "Bigger"
"Well," said the Chief, "Who is it?"
Cop: "I think it's Jesus!"
Chief: "What makes you think it's Jesus?"
Cop: "He's got the Pope for a limo driver!"

THE TOY
There was this couple that had been married for 20 years.
Every time they made love the husband always insisted on turning off
the light.
Well, after 20 years the wife felt this was ridiculous.
She figured she would break him out of this crazy habit.
So one night, while they were in the middle of a wild, screaming,
romantic session, she turned on the lights.
She looked down... and saw her husband was holding a
battery-operated leasure device... a vibrator!
Soft, wonderful and larger than a real one. She went completely
ballistic.
"You impotent bastard," She screamed at him, "how could you be lying
to me all of these years?
You better explain yourself!"
The husband looks her straight in the eyes and says calmly: "I'll
explain the toy . . . you explain the kids."
