801. A programmer and an engineer
A Programmer and an Engineer were sitting next to each other on an airplane. The Programmer leans over to the Engineer and asks if he wants to play a fun game. The Engineer just wants to sleep so he politely declines, turns away and tries to sleep. The Programmer persists and explains that it's a real easy game. He explains,"I ask a question and if you don't know the answer you pay me $5. Then you ask a question and if I don't know the answer I'll pay you $5." Again the Engineer politely declines and tries to sleep. The Programmer, now somewhat agitated, says, "O.K., if you don't know the answer you pay me $5 and if I don't know the answer I pay you $50! " Now, that got the Engineer's attention, so he agrees to the game. The Programmer asks the first question, "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?" Then Engineer doesn't say a word and just hands the Programmer $5. Now, its the Engineer's turn. He asks the Programmer,"What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down on four?" The Programmer looks at him with a puzzled look, takes out his laptop computer, looks through all his references and after about an hour wakes the Engineer and hands the Engineer $50. The Engineer politely takes the $50 turns away and tries to return to sleep. The Programmer, a little miffed, asks, "Well what's the answer to the question?" Without a word, the Engineer reaches into his wallet, hands $5 to the Programmer, turns away and returns to sleep. 802. Exploratory surgery

I said to him.."Do you think we'll ever find them." He said.."I don't know kid.. there are so many places they can hide." I remember I was so depressed I was going to jump out a window on the tenth floor.. so they sent a priest up to talk to me. He said.."On your mark..." On Halloween..the parents send their kids out looking like me. Last year.. one kid tried to rip my face off! Now it's different.. when I answer the door the kids hand me candy. When my old man wanted sex.. my mother would show him a picture of me. I had a lot of pimples too. One day I fell asleep in a library. I woke up and a blind man was reading my face. My wife made me join a bridge club. I jump off next Tuesday. One time I went to a hotel. I asked the bellhop to handle my bag. He felt up my wife! It's tough to stay married. My wife kisses the dog on the lips.. yet she won't drink from my glass! Last week my tie caught on fire. Some guy tried to put it out with an axe! For two hours..some guy followed me around with a pooper scooper. I met the Surgeon General. He offered me a cigarette! This morning when I put on my under wear I could hear the Fruit of the Loom guys laughing at me. A travel agent offered me a 21 day special. He told me I would fly from New York to London. Then from Tokyo back to New York. I asked him.. "How am I supposed to get from London to Tokyo?" He told me.."That is why we give you 21 days." Another travel agent told me I could spend 7 nights in Hawaii. No days..just nights. My problem is that I appeal to everyone that can do me absolutely no good. They say.."Love thy neighbor as thy self." What am I supposed to do? Jerk him off too? At Christmas time I sat on Santa's lap. His fly was open. Boy..what a present he gave me! My sex life is terrible. My wife put a mirror over the dogs bed. Actually she did put the mirror over our bed. She says she likes to watch herself laugh. I'm a bad lover. Once I caught a peeping tom booing me. My wife only has sex with me for a purpose. Last night she used me to time an egg. I asked my wife if she would put out the garbage. She said.."Why should I.. you never put out for me." I asked her if she enjoys a cigarette after sex. She said.."No.. one drag is enough." I got myself good this morning too. I did my push ups in the nude.. but I didn't see the mouse trap. A girl phoned me and said.."Come on over there's nobody home." I went over. Nobody was home! A hooker once told me she had a headache. I went to message parlor. It was self service. My only thrill is self inflicted hickies. If it weren't for pick-pocketers I'd have no sex life at all. I was making love to this girl and she started crying. I said.. "Are you going to hate yourself in the morning?" She said.. "No.. I hate myself now." She was no bargain either. She showed up with pigtails... under her arms. 804. PRISON LIFE VS FULL-TIME JOB

805. Drunk Then there's the drunk who went out on a long bender. Somewhere in the course of his wanderings the right pocket in his trousers was ripped out of his pants. The drunk, sobering up somewhat after several days, begins to take stock of himself and his condition. He reaches into his coat pocket, pulls out the contents and inventories them. All is well. He reaches into his left pants pocket, pulls out the contents - again all is well. Then he reaches into his right pants pocket. He feels around a bit then, with a quizzical look on his face says to himself, "Prunes, prunes. . . now why in the hell did I buy prunes?" 806. A present On preparing to return home from an out of town trip, this man got a small puppy as a present for his son. Not having time to get the paper work to take the puppy onboard, the man just hid the pup down the front of his pants and snunk him onboard the airplane.. About 30 minutes into the trip a stew noticed the man shaking and quivering. "Are you OK, sir?" asked the stew? "Yes, I'm fine." said the man. Sometime later the stew noticed the man moaning, and shaking again.. "Are you sure you're alright sir?" "Yes." said the man, "but I have a confession to make. I didn't have time to get the paperwork to bring a puppy onboard, so I hid him down the front of my pants." "Whats wrong?" asked the stew, "Is he not house broken?" "No, that's not the problem. The problem is he's not weaned yet!" 807. A priest and rabbi in a bar
