Mary
Poppins was traveling home, but due to worsening weather, she decided to stop at
a hotel for the night. She approached the receptionist and asked for a room for
the night.
"Certainly
madam," he replied courteously.
"Is
the restaurant open still?" inquired Mary.
"Sorry,
no," came the reply, "but room service is available all night. Would
you care to select something from this menu?"
Mary
smiled and took the menu and perused it. "Hmm, I would like cauliflower
cheese please," said Mary.
"Certainly,
madam," he replied.
"And can I have breakfast in bed?" asked Mary politely.
The receptionist nodded and smiled.
"In that case, I would love a couple of poached eggs, please," Mary mused.
After confirming the order, Mary signed in and went up to her room for the night.
The night passed uneventfully and the next morning Mary came down early to check out. The same guy was still on the desk.
"Morning madam...sleep well?"
"Yes, thank you," Mary replied.
"Food to your liking?"
"Well,
I have to say the cauliflower cheese was exceptional, I don't think I have had
better. Shame about the eggs, though.... They really weren't that nice at
all," replied Mary truthfully.
"Oh...well,
perhaps you could contribute these thoughts to our Guest Comments Book. We are
always looking to improve our service and would value your opinion," said
the receptionist.
"OK,
I will...thanks!" replied Mary....who checked out, then scribbled a comment
into the book. Waving, she left to continue her journey.
Curious,
the receptionist picked up the book to see the comment Mary had written:
"Supercauliflowercheesebuteggswerequiteatrocious!"
A
young executive was leaving the office one evening when he found the CEO
standing in front of a shedder with a piece of paper in his hand.
"Listen," said the CEO, "This is very important and my assistant
has left. Can you make this thing work?"
"Certainly," said the young man, flattered that the CEO had asked him
for help. He turned the machine on, inserted the paper and pressed the start
button.
"Excellent, excellent!" said the CEO as his paper disappeared inside
the shredder.
"I just need one copy."
A
concerned husband went to a doctor to talk about his wife.
He
says to the doctor, "Doctor, I think my wife is deaf because she never
hears me the first time and always asks me to repeat things."
"Well,"
the doctor replied, "go home and tonight stand about 15 feet from her and
say something to her. If she doesn't reply move about 5 feet close and say it
again. Keep doing this so that we'll get an idea about the severity of her
deafness".
Sure
enough, the husband goes home and does exactly as instructed. He starts off
about 15 feet from his wife in the kitchen as she is chopping some vegetables
and says, "Honey, what's for dinner?" He hears no response. He moves
about 5 feet closer and asks again. No reply. He moves 5 feet closer. Still no
reply. He gets fed up and moves right behind her, about an inch away, and asks
again, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
She replies, "For the fourth time, vegetable stew!"
The
efficiency expert concluded his lecture with a note of caution. "You don't
want to try these techniques at home." "Why not?" asked someone
from the back of the audience. "I watched my wife's routine at breakfast
for years," the expert explained. "She made lots of trips to the
refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying just a single item at a
time.
'Hon,' I suggested, 'Why don't you try carrying several things at once?'" The voice from the back asked, "Did it save time?" The expert replied, "Actually, yes. It used to take her 20 minutes to get breakfast ready. Now I do it in seven."
During the Great Depression, there was this man who walked into a bar one day.
He walked up to the bartender and said, "Bartender, I'd like to buy the
house a round of drinks". The bartender said, "That's fine, but we're
in the middle of the Depression, so I'll need to see some money first". The
guy pulls out a huge wad of bills and sets them on the bar. Well, the bartender
can't beleive what he's seeing. "Where did you get all that money?",
asked the bartender. "I'm a professional gambler", replied the man.
The bartender said, "There's no such thing! I mean, your odds are 50-50 at
best, right?". "Well, I only bet on sure things" said the guy.
"Like what?" asked the bartender.
"Well,
for example, I'll bet you $50 that I can bite my right eye." The bartender
thought about it. "OK". So, the guy pulls out his false right eye and
bites it. "Aw, you screwed me", said the bartender, and paid the guy
his $50. "I'll give you another chance. I'll bet you another $50 that I can
bite my LEFT eye" said the stranger. The bartender thought again and said,
"Well, I know you're not blind, I mean I watched you walk in here. I'll
take that bet". So, the guy pulls out his false teeth and bites his left
eye. "Aw, you screwed me again". "That's how I win so much money,
bartender. I'll just take a bottle of your best scotch in leiu of the $50",
said the man.
With
that, the guy went to the back room and spent the better part of the night
playing cards with some of the locals. After many hours of drinking and card
playing,
he stumbled up to the bar. The guy, drunk as a skunk, said, "Bartender,
I'll give you one last chance. I'll bet you $500 that I can stand on this bar
here on one foot and pee into that whiskey bottle on that shelf behind you
without spilling a drop".
The
bartender once again pondered the bet. The guy couldn't even stand up straight
on two feet, much less one. "OK, you're on". The guy climbed up on the
bar, stood on one leg, and began peeing all over the place. He hit the bar, the
bartender, himself, but not a drop made it into the whiskey bottle.
The
bartender was ecstatic. Laughing, the bartender said, "Hey pal, you owe me
$500!". The guy climbed down off the bar and said, "That's OK. I just
bet each of the guys in the card room $1000 each that I could pee all over you
AND the bar and still make you laugh!"
On
the first day of college, the Dean addressed the students, pointing out some of
the rules: "The female dormitory will be out-of-bounds for all male
students, and the male dormitory to the female students. Anybody caught breaking
this rule will be fined $20 the first time." He continued, "Anybody
caught breaking this rule the second time will be fined $60. Being caught a
third time will cost you a fine of $180. Are there any questions?" At this
point, a male student in the crowd inquired: "How much for a season
pass?"
A Mom is driving a little girl to her friends house for a play
date.- "Mommy," the little girl asks, "how old are you?"
- "Honey, you are not supposed to ask a lady her age," the mother warns.
"It is not polite."- "Ok," the little girl says, "How much do you weigh?"
- "Now really," the mother says, "These are personal questions and are
really none of your business."Undaunted, the little girl asks,
- "Why did you and daddy get a divorce?"
- "That is enough questions, honestly!" The exasperated mother
walks away as the two friends begin to play.- "My Mom wouldn't tell me anything," the little girl says to her friend.
- "Well," said the friend, "all you need to do is look at her
drivers license. It is like a report card, it has everything on it."Later that night the little girl says to her mother,
- "I know how old you are, you are 32."
The mother is surprised and asks, "How did you find that out?"
"I also know that you weigh 140 pounds."
The mother is past surprise and shock now. "How in heavens
name did you find that out?"- "And," the little girl says triumphantly, "I know why you
and daddy got a divorce."- "Oh really?" the mother asks. "Why?"
- "Because you got an F in sex."
A
man and his wife are awoken at 3 o'clock in the morning by a knock on the door.
The man gets up and goes to the door where a stranger is asking for a push.
"Not
a chance" says the husband -- "It's three o'clock in the
morning!" He closes the door and returns to bed.
"Who
was it?" asks his wife.
"Just
a stranger asking for a push" he answers.
"Did
you help him? she asks.
"No
I didn't -- it's three in the morning"
"Well
you've got a short memory" says his wife, "Can't you remember about
three months ago when we broke down on holiday and those two guys helped us?. I
think you should help him."
The
man does as he is told and returns to the front door and calls out into the dark
"Hello -- are you still there?"
"Yes",
comes the answer.
"Do
you still want a push?" calls out the husband.
"Yes
please!" comes the reply from the dark.
"Where
are you?" asks the husband
"Over
here on the swing" the man replies.
One
day an out of work mime is visiting the zoo and attempts to earn some money as a
street performer.
Unfortunately, as soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zoo keeper grabs him and
drags him into his office.
The zoo keeper explains to the mime that the zoos most popular attraction, a
gorilla has died suddenly and the keeper fears that attendance at the zoo will
fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla until
they can get another one. The mime accepts.
So the next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before
crowd comes. He discovers that its a great job. He can sleep all he wants, play
and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever
did as a mime.
However, eventually the crowds tire of him and he tires of just swinging on
tires. He begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion
in the cage next to his. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he
climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition, and dangles from the
top to the lions cage.
Of course, this makes the lion furious, but the crowd loves it.
At the end of the day the zoo keeper comes and gives the mime a raise for being
such a good attraction. Well, this goes on for some time, the mime keeps
taunting the lion, the crowds grow larger, and his salary keeps going up.
Then one terrible day when he is dangling over the furious lion he slips and
falls. The mime is terrified. The lion gathers itself and prepares to pounce.
The mime is so scared that he begins to run round and round the cage with the
lion close behind. Finally, the mime starts screaming and yelling, 'Help, Help
me!', but the lion is quick and pounces.
The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the angry lion and
the lion says, 'Shut up you idiot! Do you want to get us both fired?'
A
man on a camel rode through miles of the sun-drenched desert searching for some
sign of life. His supplies were running low when his camel died. Now on foot, he
desperately sought refuge from the heat, and, most importantly, a source for
water. Suddenly, he came across a vendor in the middle of the desert.
"Thank God I found you!" the man cried. "Please help me. I'm in
dire need of some water."
"Well,"
said the vendor, "I don't have any water. But would you like to buy one of
these fine ties."
"What
am I going to do with a tie?" the man asked.
"That's
what I'm selling sir. If you don't like it, I can't help you."
The
man left the vendor and walked on for many more miles, praying each minute that
he would find refuge from the scorching sun. His eyes squinted a bunch of times
when he came across a restaurant in the distance. Unable to comprehend a
restaurant located in the middle of the desert, he assumed the place was a
mirage, but decided to check it out anyway. As he approached the door, his mouth
opened in amazement, seeing that the place actually existed.
The
doorman stopped him before he entered. "Excuse me sir," the doorman
said, "But you can't come in here without a tie!"
Recently,
scientists suggested that, considering the results of a recent analysis that
revealed the presence of female hormones in beer, men should reconsider their
beer consumption.
The
theory is that drinking beer makes men turn into women. To test the theory, 100
men were fed six pints of beer each within a one-hour period.
It
was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without
making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think
rationally, argued over nothing and refused to apologize when wrong. No further
testing is planned....
Two
girls were having coffee when one noticed that the other girl seemed troubled
and asked her, "Is something bugging you? You look anxious."
"Well,
my boyfriend just lost all his money and life savings in the stock market,"
she explained.
"Oh,
that's too bad," the other girl sympathized. "I'm sure you're feeling
sorry for him."
"Yeah,
I am," she said. "He'll really miss me."
A
young husband returned home to find his new bride preparing to bake a ham. He
noticed she had cut off both ends, so he asked her why since it looked like
perfectly good ham. She told him, "I learned that from my mother." He
accepted that, ate the ham, and it was great.
At
the next family gathering, the young husband asked his new mother-in-law about
the ham. She said, "I learned that from my mother."
Grandma
came home for Christmas, and the young husband finally had the chance to solve
the riddle. He told Grandma about his wife, her mother, and how they had both
learned this from her.
Grandma
said, "Well...I had a short pan!"
Four
college seniors had a week of exams coming up, but they decided to party
instead. Their biggest exam was on Wednesday, and they showed up telling the
professor that their car had broken down the night before due to a very flat
tire and they needed a bit more time to study.
The
professor told them that they could have another day to study. That evening, all
of the boys crammed all night until they were sure that they knew just about
everything. Arriving to class the next morning, each boy was told to go to
separate classrooms to take the exam. Each boy just shrugged and went to the
different parts of the building.
As
each sat down, they read the first question. "For 5 points, explain the
contents of an atom." At this point, they thought that this was going to be
a piece of cake, and answered the question with ease. Then, the test continued.
"For
95 points, tell me which tire it was."
Once
upon a time, the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert.
Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night." So they created a
night watchman position and hired a person for the job.
Then
Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?"
So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write
the instructions, and one person to do time studies.
Then
Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks
correctly?" So they created a Quality Control department and hired two
people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.
Then
Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?" So they
created the following positions, a time keeper, and a payroll officer, then
hired two people.
Then
Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?" So
they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative
Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.
Then
Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one year and we
are $18,000 over budget, we must cutback overall cost."
So
they laid off the night watchman.
