"Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh." George Bernard Shaw

Laughter is a great form of medicine.

It changes brain chemistry, releasing endorphins that increase our sense of well-being, improve our reasoning powers and make us less sensitive to pain. Laughter is a proven stress reducer. A good belly laugh both requires and improves deeper breathing and reduces muscle tension. People who have joy in their lives are more likely to feel good about themselves. It also seems fairly obvious that having a sense of humor helps one cope with life's stressors and crises. Humor can ultimately be used as a coping tool for almost any difficulty because it engages an increase in depth of breathing that relaxes, refreshes and restores.

Laughter can also be dangerous when in conjunction with hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, coronary bypass and smoking, some laughter done too hard will cause Valsalva's maneuver

Laughter is powerless without breathing. So is the catharsis of crying.  Ever laugh till your eyes teared or you outright cried?

Do you titter or guffaw, smirk or chuckle, smile undiscernibly or yuck, yuck, yuck?

Humor makes life fun. We lighten up and allow the freedom of the breath and reforming of key thought forms to recreate or re-enforce new aspects of inner perspectives.  We get to take a step back and observe and more appreciate the absurd or the underlying wisdom within the depth of our natural un-forced inhalations. 

Laughter is a primary release mechanism from tension. When ridiculousness occurs and our breath releases, we can more readily see the beauty, joy, wittiness or intelligence and better accept unfamiliar or too familiar forms; even the gems of truth hidden in obscure, and blatantly obvious counterproductive points of view.  I would dearly miss the newspaper comic section.  

On a more somber note, Doonesbury author Gary Trudeau states that "In the shadow of great sorrow, sometimes laughter is the only thing between people and utter despair." 

 
"Wrinkles should merely indicate where the smiles have been. "Mark Twain

Breathing and humor can be a safety valve for the healthy release and expression of anger and other strong feelings and emotions. 

Humor is mentally and physically good for everyone offering perspective and balance while providing temporary relief from the world's restrictive regulations.

Humor is a means of communication and creative expression.

Humor affirms life and brings people together.

Humor is a way to express the truth even when the truth is feared.

Humor is very beneficial in strengthening relationships. It gives one a special   perspective and sense of power. Humor also dispels anger and aggression and relieves tension.

We that learn to find humor even in some of the grim realities and emotion-packed challenges of daily life have an edge on peace of mind. But this mindset takes practice.

And so it goes..

Notice what happens with your breathing after you laugh a lot. My breathing slows down and becomes fuller and deeper. My voice becomes more resonant.

2. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE FEMALES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY SLOWLY INHALING AND EXHALING WHILE USING THE SINK. 

3. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF, EXHALE VERY SLOWLY WHILE YOU BLEED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE ON YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE A TIMER. 

4. A MOUSE TRAP PLACED ON TOP OF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ROLLING OVER AND GOING BACK TO SLEEP AFTER YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON. 

5. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU'LL BE AFRAID TO COUGH

6. YOU NEED ONLY TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE. 

7. IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. 

THOUGHT for the day: 

SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES - NOT REALLY GOOD FOR ANYTHING BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN THEY'RE PUSHED DOWN THE STAIRS. 

NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, TAKE A LAXATIVE AND SLEEPING PILLS ON THE SAME NIGHT!

The Sandwich:

As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection. A thick slab of ham, a fresh bun, crisp lettuce and plenty of expensive, light brown, gourmet mustard. The corners of my jaw aching in anticipation, I carried it to the picnic table in our backyard, picked it up with both hands but was stopped by my wife suddenly at my side. "Hold Johnny (our six-week-old son) while I get my sandwich," she said.

I had him balanced between my left elbow and shoulder and was reaching again for the ham sandwich when I noticed a streak of ivory colored liquid.

on my fingers. 

I love mustard.

I had no napkin.

I licked it off.

It was not mustard.

No man ever put a baby down faster.

It was the first and only time I have sprinted with my tongue protruding. With a washcloth in each hand I did the sort of routine shoeshine boys do, only I did it on my tongue. Later my wife said, "Now you know why they call that mustard 'Poupon.'

One of my favorite birthday cards shows a picture of a "seeker" coming to the "top of the mountain" to ask the great sage and seer of all knowingness,

"Oh great baba, what is the secret of long life?"

Inside the card, baba reveals,

"Keep breathing as long as you can."

SO happy to announce my mother has tested negative for COVID-19...

Doctor said the breathing issues are only pulmonary fibrosis, a collapsed lung, and stage 4 cancer. Phew!

Whenever I feel blue
I start breathing again.


What do you call a cellist with breathing problems?

Mesotheliyoyoma

 

They say yoga without breathing is just stretching.
It's actually called passing out.

 

A man goes to the doctor
"Help me", he says, "I think I might be asthmatic because I have a really hard time breathing"

The doctor performs a couple of tests and tells him: "From now on, I want you to sleep with your windows wide open."

A week later the man comes to the doctor again. The doctor asks him: "So, did you follow my recommendation?"

"Yes sir, I slept with my windows wide open every night"

"And what about your asthma? Did it disappear?"

"No, but what did is my watch, my laptop, my television, ..."

 

The Laughlab, at www.laughlab.co.uk, was created by Richard Wiseman of the University of Hertfordshire in England for what he calls the most comprehensive study ever on the psychology of humor. Since it was launched the site has collected more than 20,000 jokes and ratings from 200,000 people in 70 countries.

The following joke received the highest rating from 47 percent of people who participated:

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are going camping. They pitch their tent under the stars and go to sleep. Sometime in the middle of the night, Holmes wakes Watson up: "Watson, look up at the stars, and tell me what you deduce."

Watson says, "I see millions of stars and even if a few of those have planets, it's quite likely there are some planets like Earth, and if there are a few planets like Earth out there, there might also be life."

Holmes replied: "Watson, you idiot, somebody stole our tent."

Diagnosis?.
"When I press my forehead with my finger, it really hurts, " a patient complained to his doctor. "And when I do the same to my cheek, it's also painful. Even if I press on my stomach, I suffer. What can it be?"

Stumped, the physician sent the patient to a specialist.

The man returned to his doctor the following week. "What did the specialist say?" the doctor asked.  The man replied. 
"She said I have a broken finger."

--The cute statements below are said to have been written by actual students and are genuine, authentic and not retouched or corrected. 

In the first book of the Bible, God got tired of creating the world, so he took the Sabbath off. 

Adam & Eve were created from an apple tree. Noah's wife was called Joan of Arc.

Noah built the ark, which the animals came to in pears. Lot's wife was a pillar of salt by day, but a ball of fire by night. Samson was a strong man who let himself be led astray by a Jezebel like Dililah.

Samson slayed the Philistines with the axe of the Apostles. Moses led the Hebrews to the Red Sea, where they made unleavened bread, which is bread without any ingredients. 

The Egyptians were all drowned in the desert. Afterwards, Moses went up to Mount Cyanide to get the amendments.

The first commandment was when Eve told Adam to eat the apple. The fifth commandment is to humor thy father & mother. The seventh commandment is thou shalt not admit adultery. Moses died before he ever reached Canada.

Then Joshua led the Hebrews in the battle of Geritol. The greatest miracle in the Bible is when Joshua told his son to stand still & he obeyed him.

David was a Hebrew king skilled at playing the liar. He fought the Finklestines, a race of people who lived in Biblical times. Solomon, one of David's sons, had 300 wives & 700 porcupines. When Mary heard that she was the mother of Jesus, she sang the Magna Carta.  

He also explained, "a man doth not live by sweat alone". 

It was a miracle when Jesus rose from the dead & managed to get the tombstone off the entrance.

The people who followed the Lord were called the 12 decibles. The epistles were the wives of the apostles. One of the opossums was St. Matthew who was also a taximan. St. Paul converted to Christianity. He preached holy acrimony, which is another name for marriage. 

A Christian should have only one spouse. This is called monotony.

PREPARING FOR A MAMMOGRAM

Many women are afraid of their first mammogram but there is no need to worry. By taking a few minutes each day for the week preceding the exam and doing the following practice exercises, you will be totally prepared. Borrowed with permission from the author. "And How Are We Feeling Today?" by Kathryn Hammer (copyright 1993, Contemporary Books).

Best of all, you can do these simple practice exercises right in the privacy of your own home!

Exercise #1: Freeze two metal bookends overnight. Strip to the waist. Invite a stranger into the room. Press the bookends against one of your breasts. Smash the bookends together as hard as you can. Set an appointment with the stranger to meet next year and do it again.

Exercise #2: Open your refrigerator door and insert one breast between the door and the main box. Have one of your strongest friends slam the door shut as hard as possible and lean on the door for good measure. Hold that position for five seconds. Repeat again in case the first time wasn't effective enough.

Exercise #3: Visit your garage at 3:00 a.m. when the temperature of the concrete floor is just perfect. Take off all our warm clothes and lay comfortably on the floor with one breast wedged under the rear tire of the car. Ask a friend to slowly back the car up until the breast is sufficiently flattened and chilled. Turn over and repeat for the other breast. Relieving the Trauma of Mammography

---So there’s this sweet Jewish grandma at this party and she spots a young man and goes over to him and says "well!, you look like a nice young man, tell me something about yourself." He says well, I’ve been gone a long time and it’s nice to be here with my friends. She says "You were gone a long time? Where did you go? He replies. " Well, I was in prison". Prison she says, OH MY, Prison. Goodness, how long were you in prison?.

He confides, 15 years. 
GOODNESS. 15 years. What on earth did you do to get sent to prison for 15 years? He tells her "I killed my wife". 

She raises her head , looks up at him, smiles and says "so you're single?"

---Lawyer and the blonde. Read this one before you prejudge it. (mgw)

A lawyer and a blonde are sitting next to each other on a long flight from LA to NY. The lawyer leans over to her and asks if she would like to play a fun game. The blonde just wants to take a nap, so she politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.

The lawyer persists and explains that the game is really easy and a lot of fun. He explains "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5, and visa-versa." Again, she politely declines and tries to get some sleep.

The lawyer, now somewhat agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $50!", figuring that since she is a blonde that he will easily win the match.

This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring that there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees to the game. The lawyer asks the first question.

"What's the distance from the earth to the moon?" The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a five-dollar bill and hands it to the lawyer.

Now, it's the blonde's turn. She asks the lawyer: "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?" The lawyer looks at her with a puzzled look. He takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references. He taps into the Airphone with his modem and searches the Net and the Library of Congress. Frustrated, he sends E-mails to all his co-workers and friends he knows.

All to no avail. After over an hour, he wakes the blonde and hands her $50. The blonde politely takes the $50 and turns away to get back to sleep. The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, so what IS the answer!?"

Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep.

---Three guys are out having a relaxing day fishing.
 Out of the blue, they catch a mermaid who begs to be set free in return for granting each of them a wish. Now one of the guys just doesn't believe it, and says: "OK, if you can really grant wishes, then double my IQ."

The mermaid says: "Done." Suddenly, the guy starts reciting Shakespeare flawlessly and analyzing it with extreme insight.

The second guy is so amazed, he says to the mermaid: "Triple my IQ." The mermaid says: "Done." The guy starts to spout out all the mathematical solutions to problems that have been stumping the scientists in various fields: physics, chemistry, etc.

The last guy is so enthralled with the changes in his friends that he says to the mermaid: "Quintuple my IQ." The mermaid looks at him and says: "You know, I normally don't try to change people's minds when they make a wish, but I really wish you'd reconsider."

The guy says: "No, I want you to increase my IQ times five, and if you don't do it, I won't set you free."

"Please," says the mermaid. "You don't know what you're asking. It will change your entire view on the universe. Won't you ask for something else like a million dollars? Anything!!"

But no matter what the mermaid said, the guy insisted on having his IQ increased by five times its usual power. So the mermaid sighed and said: "Done."

And he became a woman."

12 thoughts for today- December 24, 2004

12. Life is sexually transmitted.

11. Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

10. Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny.  If you see him without an erection, make him a sandwich.

 9. Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.

  8. Some people are like Slinkies .... not really good for anything, but you can't help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

  7. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

  6. Whenever I start feeling blue, I start breathing again.

  5. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no 
attention to criticism.

  4. Why does a slight tax increase cost you two hundred dollars and a substantial tax cut saves you thirty cents.

  3. In the 60's people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

  2. Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.

  And the #1 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

Most "terrorists" are reported to have come to the US legally, but they then hang around on expired visas, some for as long as 10 to 15 years. Now compare that to Blockbuster. If you are 2 days late with a video, those people are all over you like a fat boy on a cupcake. I think we should put Blockbuster in charge of immigration.

---Subject: The Rabbit      

A man was driving along the highway, and saw a rabbit hopping across the middle of the road. He swerved to avoid hitting the rabbit, but unfortunately the rabbit jumped in front of the car and was hit.

The driver, being a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulled over to the side of the road, and got out to see what had become of the rabbit. Much to his dismay, the rabbit was dead.

The driver felt so awful, he began to cry. A woman driving down the highway saw the man crying on the side of the road and pulled over.

She stepped out of her car and asked the man what was wrong.

"I feel terrible," he explained, "I accidentally hit this rabbit and   killed it."

The woman told the man not to worry. She knew what to do. She went to her car trunk, and pulled out a spray can. She walked over to the limp, dead rabbit, and sprayed the contents of the can onto the rabbit.

Miraculously the rabbit came to life, jumped up, waved its paw at the two humans and hopped down the road. 50 yards away the rabbit stopped, turned around, waved and hopped down the road, another 50 yards, turned, waved and hopped another 50 yards.

The man was astonished. He couldn't figure out what substance could be in the woman's spray can!!

He ran over to the woman and asked, "What is in your spray can? What did you spray on that rabbit?

The woman turned the can around so that the man could read the label. It said: "Hair spray.  Restores life to dead hair. Adds permanent wave.

A funny thing happened to me while I was visiting the park in an old London town last year. I had to use the park facility, which was one of those new high-tech automatic outdoor restrooms.

After I finished and was ready to leave, the automatic door opened and there stood another tourist like myself. (His attire obviously showed he was from China.)

I motioned for him to come in and save his admission coin; he'd come in and I'd go out simultaneously. He caught on right away; as I walked out, he walked in and the door closed automatically.

Then I heard this loud rushing of water inside. I then realized this toilet facility had an automatic self-cleaning feature that sounded all-encompassing inside. I quickly realized what was happening - the poor guy was getting all wet - so I walked pretty fast and jumped on a bus.

I often wonder if he still hates me. Maybe there's a new Confucius saying:

"Man who gets in free to use facility gets surprise of his life."

---Kiss that Frog
A man was crossing a road one day when a frog called out to him and said, "If you kiss me, I'll turn into a beautiful princess." He bends over, picked up the frog, and put it in his pocket.

The frog spoke up again and said, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will tell everyone how smart and brave you are and how you are my hero." The man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it, and returned it to his pocket. The frog spoke up again and said, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will be your loving companion for an entire week."

The man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it, and returned it to his pocket. The frog then cried out, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I'll stay with you for a year and do ANYTHING you want." Again the man took the frog out, smiled at it, and put it back into his pocket. Finally the frog asked, "What is the matter? I've told you I'm a beautiful princess, that I'll stay with you for a year and do anything you want.

Why won't you kiss me?"

The man said, "Look, I'm a computer programmer. I don't have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog is cool."

---A Long Happy Life?

A woman walked up to a little old man rocking in a chair on his porch. "I couldn't help noticing how happy you look," she said. "What's your secret for a long happy life?"

"I smoke three packs of cigarettes a day," he said. "I also drink a case of whiskey a week, eat fatty foods, and never exercise."

"That's amazing," the woman said. "How old are you?"

"Twenty-six," he said.

----- I worked with an individual who plugged his power strip back into itself and couldn't understand why his computer would not turn on.

1st Person: "Do you know anything about this fax machine?"

2nd Person: "A little. What's wrong?"

1st Person: "Well, I sent a fax, and the recipient called back to say all she received was a cover-sheet and a blank page. I tried it again, and the same thing happened."

2nd Person: "How did you load the sheet?"

1st Person: "It's a pretty sensitive memo, and I didn't want anyone else to read it by accident, so I folded it so only the recipient would open it and read it."

---I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car.

"I need a battery in this remote door unlocker. Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to a distant convenience store) would have a battery for this?"

"Hmmm, I dunno. Do you have an alarm, too?" I asked.

"No, just this remote 'thingy,' she answered, handing it and the car keys to me. As I took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, "Why don't you drive over there and check about the batteries...it's a long walk."

Working Out for Weight Loss
This is dedicated to every woman who ever attempted to get into a regular workout routine. A must read!                 

Dear Diary...

For my fiftieth birthday this year, my husband (the dear) purchased a week of personal training at the local health club for me.  Although I am still in great shape since playing on my high school softball team, I decided it would be a good idea to go ahead and give it a try. I called the club and made my reservations with a personal trainer I'll call Bruce, who identified himself as a 26-year-old aerobics instructor and  model for athletic clothing and swimwear. 
My husband seemed pleased with my enthusiasm to get started. The club encouraged me to keep a diary to chart my progress.  

Monday: Started my day at 6:00am. Tough to get out of bed, but found it  was well worth it when I arrived at the health club  to find Bruce waiting for me. He is something of a Greek God - with blond hair, dancing eyes and a dazzling white smile. Woo Hoo!! Bruce gave me a tour and showed me the machines. He took my pulse after five minutes on the treadmill. He was alarmed that my pulse was so fast, but I attribute it to standing next to him in his Lycra aerobic outfit. I enjoyed watching the skillful way in which he conducted his aerobics class after my workout today. Very inspiring. Bruce was encouraging as I did my sit-ups, although my gut was already aching from holding it in the whole time he was around. This is going to be a FANTASTIC week!!

Tuesday: I drank a whole pot of coffee, but I finally made it out the door. Bruce made me lie on my back and push a heavy iron bar into the air, then he put weights on it! My legs were a little wobbly on the treadmill, but I made the full mile. Bruce's rewarding smile made it all worthwhile. I feel GREAT!! It's a whole new life for me.

Wednesday: The only way I can brush my teeth is by laying the toothbrush on the counter and moving my mouth back and forth over it. I believe I have a hernia in both pectorals. Driving was OK as long as I didn't try to steer or stop. I parked on top of a GEO in the club parking lot. Bruce was impatient with me, insisting that my screams bothered other club members. His voice is a little too perky for early in the morning and when he scolds, he gets this nasally whine that is VERY annoying. My chest hurt when I got on the treadmill, so Bruce put me on the stair monster. Why the hell would anyone invent a machine to simulate an activity rendered obsolete by elevators? Bruce told me it would help me get in shape and enjoy life. He said some other stuff too. 

Thursday:  Bruce was waiting for me with his vampire-like teeth exposed as his thin, cruel lips were pulled back in a full snarl. I couldn't help being a half an hour late, because it took me that long to tie my shoes. Bruce put me to work out with dumbbells. When he was not looking, Iran and hid in the ladies room.  He sent Lars to find me, then, as punishment, put me on the rowing machine, which I sank.  

Friday: I hate Bruce more than any human being has ever hated any other human being in the history of the world. Stupid, skinny, anemic little cheerleader wannabe. If there was a part of my body I could move without unbearable pain, I would beat him up. Bruce wanted me to work on my triceps. I don't have any triceps! And if you don't want dents in the floor, don't hand me the <&*@*#$ &*@*#$ barbells or anything that weighs more than  a sandwich. (Which I am sure you learned in the sadist school you attended and graduated magna cum laude from, you Nazi dog.) The treadmill flung me off and I landed on a health and nutrition teacher. Why couldn't it have been someone softer, like the drama coach or the choir director?

Saturday: Bruce left a message on my answering machine in his grating, shrilly voice wondering why I did not show up today. Just hearing him made me want to smash the machine with my planner. However, I lacked the strength to even use the TV remote and ended up catching eleven straight hours of the *$@#&&&&&&&& Weather Channel. 

Sunday: I'm having the Church van pick me up for services today so I can go and thank GOD that this week is over. I will also pray that next year my husband (the dog) will choose a gift for me that is fun -- like a root canal or a hysterectomy.

--- My friend called his car insurance company to tell them to change his address from Texas to Vermont. The woman who took the call asked where Vermont was. As he tried to explain, she interrupted and said,

"Look, I'm not stupid or anything, but what state is it in?"

---I was working the help desk. One day one of the computer operators called me and asked if anything "bad" would happen if she dropped coins into the openings of her PC. I asked her if this was something she was thinking of doing. She said, "never mind" and hung up. So I got out my trusty tool kit and paid her a visit. I opened her CPU case and sure enough - there was 40 cents.

---One of our servers crashed. I was watching our new system administrator trying to restore it. He inserted a CD and needed to type a pathname to a directory named "i386." He started to type it and paused, asking me, "Where's the key for that line thing?"

I asked what he was talking about, and he said, "You know, that one that looks like an upside-down exclamation mark."

I replied, "You mean the letter "i"?" and he said, "Yeah, that's it!"

---I was in a car dealership a while ago when a large motor home was towed into the garage. The front of the vehicle was in dire need of repair and the whole thing generally looked like an extra in "Twister."

I asked the manager what had happened. He told me that the driver had set the cruise control, then went in back to make a sandwich.

"Donated his brain to science before he was done using it."

"The gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train isn't coming."

"He has two brains: one is lost, and the other is out looking for it."

"If he were any more stupid, he'd have to be watered twice a week."

"If you give him a penny for his thoughts, you'd get change."

"If you stand close enough to him, you can hear the ocean."

---Joke of the Week -

A man named Juan comes up to the Mexican border on his bicycle with two large bags over his shoulders. The guard stops him and asks, "What's in the bags?"

"Sand," answers Juan to which the guard replies, "We'll just see about that..." The guard takes the bags, rips them apart, empties them out and finds nothing but sand. He detains Juan overnight and has the sand analyzed, but discovers that it really is nothing but pure sand.

Finally, the guard releases Juan, puts the sand into new bags, hefts them onto the man's shoulders and lets him cross the border.

A week later, the same thing happens -- Juan approaches the border on his bicycle with two bags of sand. The guard asks him, "What have you got?" and Juan replies, "Sand." Again the guard does a thorough examination and discovers that the bags contain nothing but sand. He gives the sand back to Juan, who crosses the border. This sequence is repeated every day for several months until finally the guard is sitting in a Cantina in Mexico and Juan walks in.

"Hey, Buddy," says the guard to Juan, "I know you're smuggling something... It's been driving me crazy. It's all I think about! I can't sleep. Just between you and me, what are you smuggling?"

Juan sips his beer and says, "Bicycles."

---Let There Be Peace -

A wise old gentleman retired and purchased a modest home near a junior high school. He spent the first few weeks of his retirement in peace and contentment.

Then a new school year began. The very next afternoon three young boys, full of youthful, after-school enthusiasm, came down his street, beating merrily on every trash can they encountered. The crashing percussion continued day after day, until finally the wise old man decided it was time to take some action.

The next afternoon, he walked out to meet the young percussionists as they banged their way down the street. Stopping them, he said, "You kids are a lot of fun. I like to see you express your exuberance like that. Used to do the same thing when I was your age. Will you do me a favor? I'll give you each a dollar if you'll promise to come around every day and do your thing."

The kids were elated and continued to do a bang-up job on the trashcans. After a few days, the old-timer greeted the kids again, but this time he had a sad smile on his face.

"This recession's really putting a big dent in my income," he told them. "From now on, I'll only be able to pay you 50 cents to beat on the cans."

The noisemakers were obviously displeased, but they did accept his offer and continued their afternoon ruckus.

A few days later, the wily retiree approached them again as they drummed their way down the street. "Look," he said, "I haven't   received my Social Security check yet, so I'm not going to be able to give you more than 25 cents. Will that be okay?"

"A lousy quarter?" the drum leader exclaimed. "If you think we're going to waste our time, beating these cans around for a quarter, you're nuts! No way, mister. We quit!"

And the old man enjoyed peace and serenity for the rest of his days.

---The Perfect Story

There was a perfect man who met a perfect woman. After a perfect courtship, they had a perfect wedding. Their life together was, of course, perfect.

One snowy, stormy Christmas Eve this perfect couple was driving a perfect car along a winding road when they noticed someone at the roadside in distress. Being the perfect couple, they stopped to help.

There stood Santa Claus with a huge bundle of toys. Not wanting to disappoint any children on the eve of Christmas, the perfect couple loaded Santa and his toys into their vehicle. Soon they were driving along delivering the toys.

Unfortunately, the driving conditions deteriorated and the perfect    couple and Santa Claus had an accident. Only one of them survived the accident.

Who was the survivor? (scroll down for the answer)

The perfect woman.

She's the only one that really existed in the first place.   Everyone knows there is no Santa Claus and there is no such thing as a perfect man.

===================================

* A Male's Response * (Scroll Down )

 So, if there is no perfect man and no Santa Claus, the perfect woman must have been driving. This explains why there was a car accident.

---JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO GO BACK IN THE WATER: When two fishermen from Puglia, Italy, found a hand grenade, they didn't turn it over to authorities, they took it fishing. And when they saw some bubbles coming from the deep, they tossed the grenade in the water "hoping to stun fish". The bubbles weren't coming from fish, but from Teodoro Zuccaro's scuba tank. The blast killed the 43-year-old diver. The two fishermen have been charged with manslaughter, detonating an explosive, and poaching...Poaching?: apparently divers weren't in season yet.

TELEPHONE ANSWERING MACHINE OUTGOING MESSAGES
---My wife and I can't come to the phone right now, but if you'll leave your name and number, we'll get back to you as soon as we're finished.

---This is John: If you are the phone company, I already sent the money. If you are my parents, please send money. If you are my financial aid institution, you didn't send me enough money. If you are my friends, you owe me money. If you are a female, don't worry, I have plenty of money.

---(Narrator's voice:) There Dale sits, reading a magazine. Suddenly the telephone rings! The bathroom explodes into a veritable maelstrom of    toilet paper, with Dale in the middle of it, his arms windmilling at incredible speeds! Will he make it in time? Alas no, his valiant effort is in vain. The bell hath sounded. Thou must leave a message.

---Hi, I'm not home right now but my answering machine is, so you can talk to it instead. Wait for the beep." "Hello. I am David's answering machine.

What are you?"

---He-lo! This is Sa-to. If you leave message, I call you soon. If you leave *sexy* message, I call sooner!

---"Hi! John's answering machine is broken. This is his refrigerator. Please speak very slowly, and I'll stick your message to myself with one of these magnets."

---"Hello, you are talking to a machine. I am capable of receiving messages. My owners do not need siding, windows, or a hot tub, and their carpets are clean.

They give to charity through their office and do not need their picture taken. If you're still with me, leave your name and number and they will get back to you."

---This is not an answering machine - this is a telepathic thought-recording device. After the tone, think about your name, your reason for calling and a number where I can reach you, and I'll think about returning your call."

---"Hi. I am probably home, I'm just avoiding someone I don't like. Leave me a message, and if I don't call back, it's you."

---"If you are a burglar, then we're probably at home cleaning our weapons right now and can't come to the phone. Otherwise, we probably aren't home and it's safe to leave us a message."

---"You're growing tired. Your eyelids are getting heavy. You feel very sleepy now. You are gradually losing your willpower and your ability to resist suggestions. When you hear the tone you will feel helplessly compelled to leave your name, number, and a message."

Morris was removing some engine valves from a car on the lift when he spotted the famous heart surgeon Dr. Michael DeBakey, who was standing off to the side, waiting for the service manager. Morris, somewhat of a loud mouth, shouted across the garage, " Hey DeBakey...Is that you? Come over here for a minute." 
The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to where Morris was working on a car. Morris in a loud voice, all could hear, said argumentatively, " So Mr. fancy doctor, look at this work. I also take valves out, grind 'em, put in new parts, and when I finish this baby will purr like a kitten. So how come you get the big bucks, when you and me are doing basically the same work ? " DeBakey, very embarrassed, walked away, and said softly, to the man. "while the engine's still running?

The Meaning of Life

by Cukey Sapodillo taken from http://www.livingnutrition.com/laugh.html 

The American businessman was at an outdoor fresh food market at a coastal Costa Rican farm village when a small truck filled with boxes of fruit pulled up. The American complimented the driver on the quality of his fruit and asked how long it took to pick it all. The Costa Rican farmer replied, only a little while. The American then asked why didn't he pick more fruit? The Mexican said he had enough to support his family's immediate needs. The American then asked, but what do you do with the rest of your time? The Costa Rican farmer said, "I sleep late, tend to the orchard, pick fruit, have lunch, play with my children, take siesta with my wife, Maria, stroll into the village each evening and play guitar with my amigos, I have a full and busy life, senor."

The American scoffed, "I am a Harvard MBA and could help you. You should pick more fruit, plant more trees, spend more time farming and with the proceeds, buy a bigger orchard, and with the proceeds from the bigger orchard you could buy several orchards. Eventually you would have a fleet of trucks. Instead of selling your harvest at fruit stalls in small villages you would sell directly to city markets, and eventually open your own fruit exporting business. You would control the product and distribution."

"You would need to hire orchard and distribution managers, leave this small coastal village and move to San Jose, then Mexico City, then Los Angles, then New York City where you will run your expanding enterprise."

The Costa Rican farmer asked, "But senor, how long will this all take?"

To which the American replied, "15-20 years."

"But what then, senor?"

The American laughed and said: "That's the best part. When the time is right you would announce an IPO and sell your company stock to the public and become very rich, you would make millions."

"Millions, senor? Then what?"

The American said, "Then you would retire. Move to a small coastal farming village where you would sleep late, tend to your orchard, pick fruit, have lunch, play with your grandchildren, take siestas with your wife, stroll into the village each evening and play guitar with your amigos.

Six retired Irishmen were playing poker in O'Leary's apartment when Paddy Murphy loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest, and drops dead at the table.  Showing respect for their fallen brother, the other five continue playing standing up. Michael O'Conner looks around and asks, 'Oh, me boys, someone got's to tell Paddy's wife. Who will it be?' They draw straws. Paul Gallagher picks the short one. They tell him to be discreet, be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse. 'Discreet??? I'm the most discreet Irishmen you'll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name. Leave it to me.' Gallagher goes over to Murphy's house and knocks on the door.  Mrs. Murphy answers, and asks what he wants.  Gallagher declares, 'Your husband just lost $500, and is afraid to come home.' 'Tell him to drop dead!', says Murphy's wife. 'I'll go tell him.' says Gallagher.

'I did all right,' the drunk says with a smile. 'Did you know,' says the cop, standing straight, and folding his arms across his chest, 'that a few intersections back, your wife fell out of your car?' 'Oh, thank heavens,' sighs the drunk.

 Important Notice:    Check with your tax advisor to confirm.  
Your income taxes are normally due on April 15th unless that date falls on a Saturday or Sunday in which case they are due on Monday the 16th or 17th.

The good news is that I have learned of a recent change. For the next 4 years, your income taxes will not be due until you are nominated to a cabinet position.

 As a young bagpiper, I was asked by a funeral director to play at a grave-side service for a homeless man, with no family or friends. The funeral was to be held at a cemetery way back in the country, and this man would be the first to be laid to rest there. As I was not familiar with the backwoods area, I became lost; and being a typical man did not stop for directions. 

I finally arrived an hour late. 

I saw the backhoe and the crew, who were eating lunch, but the hearse was nowhere in sight. I apologized to the workers for my tardiness, and stepped to the side of the open grave, where I saw the vault lid already in place. I assured the workers I would not hold them up for long, but this was the proper thing to do. The workers gathered around, still eating their lunch. 

I played out my heart and soul. As I played, the workers began to weep. I played, and I played, like I'd never played before: From My Home & The Lord is my Shepherd to Flowers of the Forest. I closed the lengthy session with Amazing Grace and walked to my car. 
As I was opening the door and taking off my coat, I overheard one of the workers saying to another, "Jeezuz, Mary'n Joseph, I never seen nothin' like that before - and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."

An elderly man suffered a massive heart attack. The family drove wildly to get him to the emergency room. After what seemed like a very long wait, the ER Doctor appeared, wearing his scrubs and a long face.  Sadly, he said, "I'm afraid he is brain-dead, but his heart is still beating." 
"Oh, Dear God," cried his wife, her hands clasped against her cheeks with shock! "We've never had a Republican in the family before!"

A lawyer and a senior citizen are sitting next to each other on a long flight. The lawyer is thinking that seniors are so dumb that he could get one over on them easy. So the lawyer asks if the senior would like to play a fun game. 
The senior is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and tries to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists, saying that the game is a lot of fun.  I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me only $5. Then you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500, he says.  This catches the senior's attention and to keep the lawyer quiet, he agrees to play the game. The lawyer asks the first question. 'What's the distance from the Earth to the Moon?'  The senior doesn't say a word, but reaches into his pocket, pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer. Now it's the senior's turn. He asks the lawyer, 'What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?' 
The lawyer uses his laptop and searches all references he could find on the Net. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows; all to no avail. After an hour of searching, he finally gives up.

He wakes the senior and hands him $500. The senior pockets the $500 and goes right back to sleep. 
The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the senior up and asks, 'Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?' 
The senior reaches into his pocket, hands the lawyer $5 and goes back to sleep.

A man was walking along a California beach and was in deep prayer to the Lord. He said " Lord, you have promised to give me the desires of my heart. That's what I am asking you right now. Please give me a confirmation that you will grant my wish". 

Suddenly, the sky clouded up over his head and the Lord in a booming voice spoke to him. "I have searched your heart and determined it to be pure. The last time I issued a blank wish request, it was to Solomon. He didn't disappoint me with his request for wisdom".

"I think I can trust you won't disappoint me either. Because you have been faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish you ask for." 

The man sat and thought about it for a while and said, "I've always wanted to go to Hawaii, but I'm deadly afraid of flying and I get very sick on boats. Could you build me a bridge to Hawaii, so I can drive over there to visit whenever I want?"

The Lord laughed and said, "That's impossible! Think of the logistics of that! How would the supports reach the bottom of the Pacific? Think of how much concrete....How much steel"!!!

"Your request is very materialistic and frankly, a little disappointing. I could do it, but it's hard for me to justify your craving for worldly things". 

"Take a little more time and think of another wish, a wish you think would honor and glorify Me as well". 

The man thought about it for a long time, and tried to think of a really good wish. Finally, he said, "Here's the deal Lord, I've been married and divorced four times. My wives have always said that I don't care and that I'm insensitive". 

"So here is my wish: I wish that I could understand women...I want to know how they feel inside and what they are thinking when they give me the silent treatment...I want to know why they are crying...I want to know what they really mean when they say 'nothing'...I want to know how to make them truly happy...That's the wish I want, Lord." 

Than after a few minutes, God said.........., "You want two lanes or four on that bridge?".

STRESSED?  OVERWORKED?

For a couple years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep and too much pressure from my job, but now I found out the real reason: I'm tired because I'm overworked. The population of this country is 310 million. 64 million are retired. That leaves 246 million to do the work. There are 110 million in school, which leaves 136 million to do the work. Of this there are 52 million employed by the federal government, leaving 84 million to do the work. 6.0 million are in the Armed Forces, which leaves 78 million to do the work. Take from the total the 65 million people who work for State and City Governments and that leaves 13 million to do the work. At any given time there are 11,100,026 people in hospitals, leaving 1,899,794 to do the work. Now, there are 1,899,792 people in prisons. That leaves just two people to do the work. You and me. And you're sitting at your computer reading jokes.

AN OLD MAN AND HIS DOG

An old man lived with his hound, Mace, in a run-down shack on the outskirts of town. He had no family and only a few meager possessions including a few tools.. He used the tools to do odd jobs in town, Mace and his master lived from one day to the next on the little these jobs would bring in. Mace was a normal bloodhound, with one exception, while most dogs like to chew on grass occasionally, Mace loved it. When the old man was in town, Mace would spend the day in the yard in front of the house, chewing away on the lawn. One bright, sunny day the old man headed into town to work. He had a plumbing repair job in one of the homes there that would take him most of the day and would probably pay enough food for the remainder of the week. 
He headed for town with a spring in his step and a whistle his lips. Inside the house, the old man reached into the bag for his pipe wrench. To his surprise, he didn't feel it. He looked in the bag, then dumped its contents on the floor, but no wrench. Without it he couldn't finish the job, and without the pay he couldn't buy food for tonight's supper. He told the lady who had hired him, what the situation was. She said that if the old man couldn't do it, she would have to hire someone else. 
"I'll check at home to see if the wrench is there," he said. The old man packed his tools and headed home. When he reached home there was Mace munching away on the lawn.   When the bloodhound saw his master, he came running, tail wagging, letting the old man know how glad he was to see him. Kneeling beside the hound, the man began to pet him.   Without money to buy a new wrench, he had no idea what the future held. It was the loneliest, most helpless feeling he ever had! 
Then, he caught a glimpse of something shining in the grass. It was the wrench. The old man had dropped it on the way out that morning, and it would have been lost forever had Mace not been eating the grass around the house.  The old man grabbed the dog and gave him a hug and ran into the house. Reaching for a pencil and the only piece of paper he had, he wrote a  moving tribute to his canine companion. Few people have ever heard these words....until now, that is. One man who did happen to read them changed them a bit and has had his name recorded in history. The old man never did get the credit he deserved. But now you are privileged to read the opening line of his original poem, which began: 

"A grazing Mace, how sweet the hound that saved a wrench for me."

ARE DOCTORS REALLY HUMAN?

Just to prove that doctors are human and make mistakes like all the rest of us, we decided to show you some patient chart notes which allegedly came from actual medical records as dictated by physicians.  Surely they could not all be transcription errors...

LIFE

The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A death. What's that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards.

You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for school. You go to primary school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating ..and then finish off as an orgasm!

For Mothers and a few fathers.

The Sandwich:

As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection. A thick slab of ham, a fresh bun, crisp lettuce and plenty of expensive, light brown, gourmet mustard. The

corners of my jaw aching in anticipation, I carried it to the picnic table in our backyard, picked it up with both hands but was stopped by my wife suddenly

at my side. "Hold Johnny (our six-week-old son) while I get my sandwich," she said.

I had him balanced between my left elbow and shoulder and was reaching again for the ham sandwich when I noticed a streak of mustard on

my fingers. 

I love mustard.

I had no napkin.

I licked it off.

It was not mustard.

No man ever put a baby down faster.

It was the first and only time I have sprinted with my tongue protruding. With a washcloth in each hand I did the sort of routine shoeshine boys do,

only I did it on my tongue. Later my wife said, "Now you know why they call that mustard 'Poupon.'

Swami Beyondananda's Ten Guidelines for Enlightenment

  1. Be a Fundamentalist--ensure that the FUN always comes before the MENTAL.

Realize that life is a situation comedy that will never be canceled. A laugh track has been provided and the reason we are put in the material world  is to get more material. Have a good "laughsitive" twice a day, which will ensure regularity.

  1. Remember that each of us has been given a special gift just for entering, so you're already a winner!
  2. The most powerful tool on the planet today is TELL-A-VISION. That's where I tell a vision to you and you tell a vision to me. That way, if we don't like the programming we're getting, we can change the channel.
  3. Life is like photography: use the negative to develop.
  4. It is true: as we go through life making heavy thoughts, thought particles tend to get caught between the ears and cause a condition called "TRUTH DECAY." Be sure to use mental floss twice a day, and when you're tempted to practice "TANTRUM YOGA," remember what we teach in the Swami's Abusdiveness Training Class: DON'T GET EVEN, GET ODD!
  5. If we want world peace, we must let go of our attachments and truly live like nomads. That's where... I no mad at you and you no mad at me.

That way there'll surely be nomadness on the planet. Peace begins with each of us. A little peace here, a little peace there. Pretty soon all the peaces will fit together to make one big peace everywhere.

  1. I know great changes have been predicted for the future, so if you're looking to avoid earthquakes, my advice is simple: when you find a fault, don't dwell on it.
  2. There's no need to change the world. All we have to do is toilet train the world, and we'll never have to change it again.
  3. If you're looking for the key to the Universe, I've got some good news and bad news. The bad news: there's no key to the Universe. The good news: it was never locked.
  4. Finally, everything I've told you is channeled. That way, if you don' t like it, it's not my fault. But remember: Enlightenment is not a bureaucracy, so you don't have to go through the channels.

Some great Irish jokes. (I'm Irish)

As a young bagpiper, I was asked by a funeral director to play at a grave-side service for a homeless man, with no family or friends. The funeral was to be held at a cemetery way back in the country, and this man would be the first to be laid to rest there. As I was not familiar with the backwoods area, I became lost; and being a typical man did not stop for directions. 

I finally arrived an hour late. 

I saw the backhoe and the crew, who were eating lunch, but the hearse was nowhere in sight. I apologized to the workers for my tardiness, and stepped to the side of the open grave, where I saw the vault lid already in place. I assured the workers I would not hold them up for long, but this was the proper thing to do. The workers gathered around, still eating their lunch. 

I played out my heart and soul. As I played the workers began to weep. I played, and I played, like I'd never played before: From My Home & The Lord is my Shepherd to Flowers of the Forest. I closed the lengthy session with Amazing Grace and walked to my car. 
As I was opening the door and taking off my coat, I overheard one of the workers saying to another, "Jeezuz, Mary'n Joseph, I never seen nothin' like that before - and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."

An elderly man suffered a massive heart attack. The family drove wildly to get him to the emergency room. After what seemed like a very long wait, the ER Doctor appeared, wearing his scrubs and a long face.  Sadly, he said, "I'm afraid he is brain-dead, but his heart is still beating." 
"Oh, Dear God," cried his wife, her hands clasped against her cheeks with shock! "We've never had a Republican in the family before!"

 

If you're not familiar with the work of Steven Wright, he's the famous Erudite (comic) scientist who once said:

  "I woke up one morning, and all of my stuff had been stolen and replaced by exact duplicates."

    His mind sees things differently than most of us do. Here are some of his gems 

   1 -  I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.

2 - Borrow money from pessimists -- they don't expect it back.

3 - Half the people you know are below average.

4 - 99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name.

5 - 82.7% of all statistics are made up on the spot. 

6 - A conscience is what hurts when all your other parts feel so good.

7 - A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

8 - If you want the rainbow,  you have  got to put up with the rain.

9 - All those who believe in  psycho kinesis, raise my hand.

10 - The early bird may get  the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

11 - I almost  had a psychic girlfriend... But she left me before we met.

12  - OK, so what's the speed of dark?

13 - How do you tell when  you're out of invisible ink?

14 - If everything seems to be  going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

15 -  Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.

16 - When  everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

17 -  Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be  lazy.

18 - Hard work pays off in the future; laziness pays  off now.

19 - I intend to live forever... So far, so good.

20 - If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy  her friends?

21 - Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get  sucked into jet engines.

22 - What happens if you get scared  half to death twice?

23 - My mechanic told me, "I couldn't  repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder." 

24 - Why do  psychics have to ask you for your name.

25 - If at first you  don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

26 - A  conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

27 -  Experience is something you don't get until just after you need  it.

28 - The hardness of the butter is proportional to the  softness of the bread.

29 - To steal ideas from one person is  plagiarism; to steal from many is research.

30 - The problem  with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

31 - The  sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.  

32 - The colder the x-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it.

33 - Everyone has a photographic  memory; some just don't have film. 

34 - If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

And the all-time  favourite:

35 - If your car could travel at the speed of light, would your headlights  work?

ABOUT GROWING OLDER


First ~ Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.


Second ~ The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.


Third ~ Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.


Fourth ~ When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to your youth, think of algebra…


Fifth ~ You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.


Sixth ~ I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.


Seventh ~ One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it’s such a nice change from being young.


Eighth ~ One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.


Ninth ~ Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable and relaxed.


Tenth ~ Long ago, when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's called golf.


And finally ~ If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you're old.
