  • 'SEX' & 'RELIGION'

    A cabbie picks up a Nun.

    She gets into the cab, and notices that the VERY handsome cab driver won't stop staring at her.

    She asks him why he is staring.

    He replies, "I have a question to ask you but I don't want to offend you."

    She answers, "My son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."

    "Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me."

    She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do about that:
    1, you have to be single, and 2, you must be Catholic."

    The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I'm single and Catholic!"

    "OK," the nun says. "Pull into the next alley."

    The nun fulfils his fantasy, with a kiss that would make a hooker blush.

    But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying.

    "My dear child," says the nun, "why are you crying?"

    "Forgive me but I've sinned. I lied and I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish."

    The nun says, "That's OK. My name is Kevin and I'm going to a fancy dress party."
  • Weeellll, I posted a response yesterday, and it "appears" that it has "disappeared". ;o) Barron, thanks so much for this. I laughed until I could hardly get my breath. What's better for us physically, mentally and emotionally than Truly hardy laughter. Thanks to Jazmin, also, for her funnies. Soooo refreshing to be able to laugh!!!
  • C'EST LA VIE...

    A thief in Paris planned to steal some paintings from the Louvre.

    After careful planning, he got past security, stole the paintings, and made it safely to his van.

    However, he was captured only two blocks away when his van ran out of gas.

    When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error, he replied, "Monsieur, that is the reason I stole the paintings.'

    I had no Monet to buy Degas to make the Van Gogh."


    :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

    See if you have De Gaulle to send this on to someone else.

    I sent it to you because I figured I had nothing Toulouse.
  • NO NEED FOR "PLEASE EXPLAIN"...

    The Smiths were unable to conceive children and decided to use a surrogate father to start their family. On the day the proxy father was to arrive, Mr. Smith kissed his wife goodbye and said, "Well, I'm off now. The man should be here soon."

    Half an hour later, just by chance, a door-to-door baby photographer happened to ring the doorbell, hoping to make a sale. "Good morning, Ma'am", he said, "I've come to..."

    "Oh, no need to explain," Mrs. Smith cut in, embarrassed, "I've been expecting you."

    "Have you really?" said the photographer. "Well, that's good. Did you know babies are my specialty?"

    "Well that's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a seat".

    After a moment she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?"

    "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub, one on the couch, and perhaps a couple on the bed. And sometimes the living room floor is fun. You can really spread out there."

    "Bathtub, living room floor? No wonder it didn't work out for Harry and me!"

    "Well, Ma'am, none of us can guarantee a good one every time. But if we try several different positions and I shoot from six or seven angles, I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results."

    "My, that's a lot!", gasped Mrs. Smith.

    "Ma'am, in my line of work a man has to take his time. I'd love to be In and Out in five minutes, but I'm sure you'd be disappointed with that."

    "Don't I know it," said Mrs. Smith quietly.

    The photographer opened his briefcase and pulled out a portfolio of his baby pictures. "This was done on the top of a bus," he said.

    "Oh, my word!" Mrs. Smith exclaimed, grasping at her throat.

    "And these twins turned out exceptionally well - when you consider their mother was so difficult to work with."

    "She was difficult?" asked Mrs. Smith.

    "Yes, I'm afraid so. I finally had to take her to the park to get the job done right. People were crowding around four and five deep to get a good look"

    "Four and five deep?" said Mrs. Smith, her eyes wide with amazement.

    "Yes", the photographer replied. "And for more than three hours, too. The mother was constantly squealing and yelling - I could hardly concentrate, and when darkness approached I had to rush my shots. Finally, when the squirrels began nibbling on my equipment, I just had to pack it all in."

    Mrs. Smith leaned forward. "Do you mean they actually chewed on your, uh...equipment?"

    "It's true, Ma'am, yes.. Well, if you're ready, I'll set-up my tripod and we can get to work right away."

    "Tripod?"

    "Oh yes, Ma'am. I need to use a tripod to rest my Canon on. It's much too big to be held in the hand very long."

    Mrs. Smith fainted.

  • W - 0 - R - D - S

    On a beautiful summer's day, two English tourists were driving through Wales.

    At Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogoch
    they stopped for lunch, and one of the tourists asked the waitress,

    "Before we order, I wonder if you could settle an argument for us. Can you pronounce where we are, very, very, very slowly?"

    The girl leaned over and said, "Burrrr … gurrrr … kiiiing."
