All right back to the topic After being married for 50 years, I took a careful look at my wife one day and said, "Fifty years ago we had a cheap house, a junk car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10-inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep with a hot 23-year-old girl every night. Now, I have a $500,000 home, a $45,000 car, a nice big bed and a large screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 69-year-old woman. It seems to me that you're not holding up your side of things." My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 23-year-old girl and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap house, driving a junk car, sleeping on a sofa bed and watching a 10-inch black and white TV. Aren't older women great? They really know how to solve an old guy's problems.
They have a mechanical bull in a gin joint called "Cowgirls" on the corner of Iberville and Bourbon Street in the French Quarter. Nice place. Been there a few times myself. Anyway, at times in the wee hours a nekkid cowgirl can be seen riding the bull at a very slow speed. Pure art it is gents. And they say that there's nothing of any social value in the French Quarter. Ok here's a joke for you people to keep with the spirit of the thread. You know that the tooth brush was invented in England right, because if it was invented in the US it would have been called the teeth brush.... A bit harsh eh?
You know that the tooth brush was invented in England right, because if it was invented in the US it would have been called the teeth brush.... A bit harsh eh? I signed in just to 'like' that!
That's ok, it'll be our little secret. Besides I mentioned the old WW2 saying that the American troops in England had about "under dressed, under paid, under sexed and under IKE" before. Didn't go over too well. Tough crowd those Englishmen.
Ok here's another borderline tasteless (non-pc types=funny) joke that can be used in most places depending on whose (who's) around of course. I first heard it told as a joke about the people from Livingston Parish, which has a high rate of "trailer park" and "camps" that people occupy. On the job we referred to them as Livingston Parish Dirt Bags. Anyway.... What's the most common conversation between a father and his 15 year old daughter in Livingston? "Daddy, daddy get off of me, you're crushing my cigarettes!!!!" What, too much? I thought it was funny.
I hope this isn't posted earlier in this thread. It's one of those email things that get passed around endlessly.

We've already notified our caterers." [/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]One day the pilot of a Cherokee 180 was told by the tower to hold short of the active runway while a DC-8 landed. The DC-8 landed, rolled out, turned around, and taxied back past the Cherokee. Some quick-witted comedian in the DC-8 crew got on the radio and said, [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]"What a cute little plane. Did you make it all by yourself?" [/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]The Cherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by, came back with a real zinger: [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]"I made it out of DC-8 parts. Another landing like yours and I'll have enough parts for another one."[/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]The German air controllers at Frankfurt Airport are renowned as a short-tempered lot. They not only expect one to know one's gate parking location, but how to get there without any assistance from them. So it was with some amusement that we (a Pan Am 747) listened to the following exchange between Frankfurt ground control and a British Airways 747, call sign Speedbird 206. Speedbird 206: [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]" Frankfurt , Speedbird 206! Clear of active runway."[/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]Ground: [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]"Speedbird 206.

[/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]Ground (with quite arrogant impatience): [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]"Speedbird 206, have you not been to Frankfurt before?"[/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]Speedbird 206 (coolly): [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]"Yes, twice in 1944, but it was dark -- [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]a[/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]nd I didn't land." [/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]While taxiing at London '[/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]s [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]Gatwick [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]Airport, the crew of a US Air flight departing for Ft. Lauderdale made a wrong turn and came nose to nose with a United 727.. An irate female ground controller lashed out at the US Air crew, screaming: [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]"US Air 2771, where the hell are you going? I told you to turn right onto Charlie taxiway! You turned right on Delta! Stop right there. I know it's difficult for you to tell the difference between C and D, but get it right!" [/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]Continuing her rage to the embarrassed crew, she was now shouting hysterically: [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]"God! Now you've screwed everything up! It'll take forever to sort this out! You stay right there and don't move till I tell you to! You can expect progressive taxi instructions in about half an hour, and I want you to go exactly where I tell you, when I tell you, and how I tell you! You got that, US Air 2771?"[/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]"Yes, ma'am," [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]the humbled crew responded. Naturally, the ground control communications frequency fell terribly silent after the verbal bashing of US Air 2771. Nobody wanted to chance engaging the irate ground controller in her current state of mind. Tension in every cockpit out around Gatwick was definitely running high. Just then an unknown pilot broke the silence and keyed his microphone, asking: [/SIZE] [SIZE=14pt]"Wasn't I married to you once?"[/SIZE]

Then there was the time a pilot made a hot landing at a naval air station. The tower demanded to know who was flying that plane. "Captain Smith" came the reply. "Is that a Navy captain or a Marine captain?" "Navy captain!" "Nice landing, captain."
I know this is an old one but ; My wife and I were sitting at a table at her high school reunion, and she kept staring at a drunken man swigging his drink as he sat alone at a nearby table. I asked her, "Do you know him?" "Yes", she sighed, "He's my old boyfriend. I understand he took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear he hasn't been sober since." "My God!" I said, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?"
