[nilesfunnies] Fw: Leftovers


"I was coming to work this morning, and they're
playing Christmas music on the radio, and they were playing
that song, "He knows when you've been sleeping,
he knows when you're awake, he knows when you've
been bad or good ..." So apparently Santa works for
the National Security Agency." --Jay Leno

"President Bush is trying to put the best spin he can
on this eavesdropping scandal, like he said today: "This
proves we have a government that listens to the people."
--Jay Leno

"Bulgaria announced they're pulling all their
troops from Iraq, both of them. No, they said they'll
replace their troops with a non-combat force. That would
be the French army." --Jay Leno

"USC Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush announced
he is available for the NFL draft. Actually, this also marks
the first time in history the words 'Bush' and
'available for the draft' have ever appeared
together in the same sentence." --Jay Leno

"Dick Cheney made a surprise visit to Iraq over the
weekend. He met with the Iraqi prime minister who showed
him his purple finger from the election. Then Cheney showed
the Iraqi minister his purple fingers from bad circulation."
--Jay Leno

"That's the big story, you know. President Bush
and this whole domestic spying thing. Remember the good
old days when the only thing you had to worry about on your
phone were telemarketers." --Jay Leno

"Some groups are now picketing Wal-Mart because
their employees can't say 'Merry Christmas.'
It's not store policy or anything, they just don't
speak English." --Jay Leno
"Time has named former Presidents Bush and Clinton
the partners of the year. These two are now so close they’re
thinking about making a cowboy movie." --David Letterman

"King Kong is so popular right now that there's
talk he may run for governor of California." --David
Letterman

"More Iraqis think things are going well in Iraq than
Americans do. I guess they don't get the New York Times
over there." --Jay Leno

"It's true, everybody is in the holiday spirit.
Last night, Bill Clinton saw the 'Nutcracker.'
Not the ballet, Hillary." --David Letterman

"Heating bills this winter are the highest they've
been in five years, but President Bush has a plan to combat
rising bills. It's called global warming."
--Jay Leno

"Iraqi officials have imposed a nighttime curfew
for the elections and I think that's a great idea, because
if there's one thing the insurgents won't monkey
with, it's a curfew." --David Letterman

"The Energy Department's Argon National Lab
has determined that Beethoven died from lead poisoning.
Now when did he die, 1827? And you thought you had to wait
a long time for your lab results. Apparently, Beethoven
was one of the first members of an HMO plan." --Jay
Leno

Christmas Time in Washington

The Supreme Court ruled there cannot be a Nativity scene
in Washington, D.C. this Christmas. This isn't for
any religious or constitutional reason, they simply have
not been able to find three wise men and a virgin in the nation's
capitol. There was no problem however finding enough asses
to fill the stable.

The small girl had recently received a new watch and some
perfume, which she was very excited about. Their family
asked the pastor over for dinner. The girl wanted so badly
to tell the pastor about her new gifts, but her mother insisted
she wait until after dinner and not interrupt at meal time.

Not able to contain her excitement, and not wanting to disobey,
the little girl leaned over to the pastor during dinner
and whispered, "If you hear a little noise and smell
something, it's me!"

A new study says that it actually takes men longer to shop
on the internet then it does for them to shop in an actual store.
Well of course! There's no naked women at the stores."

The day after Thanksgiving. The busiest shopping day of
the year. I went to the mall and I was pushed, I was shoved,
I was groped, I was fondled - hell, I'm going back tomorrow."

What kind of bread do elves make sandwiches with?
Why, shortbread of course!

What kind of money do elves use?
Jingle bills!

Why did Santa's helper see the doctor?
Because he had low "elf" esteem!

One elf said to another elf, "We had Grandma for Christmas
dinner". And the other elf said, "Really? We had turkey!"

How do elves greet each other?
"Small world, isn't it?"

Santa rides in a sleigh. What do elves ride in?
Mini vans!

What's another name for Santa's helpers?
Subordinate clauses!

The first blonde says, "Let's stop here, and have our picnic under that

One kiss per yard
Walking up to a department store's fabric counter, the pretty girl asked,
"I would like to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it
cost?"

"Only one kiss per yard, " replied the smirking male clerk.

"That's fine, " replied the girl. "I'll take ten yards."

With expectation and anticipation written all over his face, the clerk
quickly measured out & wrapped the cloth, then teasingly held it out.

The girl snapped up the package and pointed to a little old man who was
standing beside her. "Grandpa will pay the bill, " she smiled.

Jewish Man Marries A Native American
A young Jewish man falls in love with a Native American woman and they
decide to get married. When his mother hears the news, however, she is
extremely distressed because she wanted him, of course, to marry a nice
Jewish girl.

When she hears that not only is he marrying this Native American girl but
has decided to live with her on the reservation, the mother becomes so
upset that she refuses to even speak to the boy, practically disowning
him.

After a year, the son telephones the mother to tell her that he and his
wife are expecting a child. The mother is happy for him, but there is
still
quite a bit of tension in the air.

Nine months later, the son calls the mother again. "Mom," he says, "just
wanted you to know that last night my wife gave birth to a healthy baby
boy. I also wanted to tell you that we've talked it over and we have
decided to give the boy a Jewish name."

Upon hearing this, the mother is overjoyed. "Oh, son, this is
wonderful, " she gushes. "I've been waiting for this moment all my life.
You have made me the happiest woman in the world."

That's great, Mom, " replies the son.

And what, " asks the mother, "is the baby's name?"

The son proudly replies, "Smoked Whitefish."

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Carpenter Held On Charges Involving Underage Mom

Carpenter Held On Charges Involving Underage Mom
Bethlehem, Judea - Authorities were today alerted by a concerned citizen
who noticed a family living in a barn. Upon arrival, Family Protective
Service personnel, accompanied by police, took into protective care an
infant child named Jesus, who had been wrapped in strips of cloth and
placed in a feeding trough by his 14-year old mother, Mary of Nazareth.

During the confrontation, a man identified as Joseph, also of Nazareth,
attempted to stop the social workers. Joseph, aided by several local
shepherds and some unidentified foreigners, tried to forestall efforts to
take the child, but were restrained by the police.

Also being held for questioning are three foreigners who allege to be wise
men from an eastern country. The INS and Homeland Security officials are
seeking information about these who may be in the country illegally. A
source with the INS states that they had no passports, but were in
possession of gold and other possibly illegal substances. They resisted
arrest saying that they had been warned by God to avoid officials in
Jerusalem and to return quickly to their own country. The chemical
substances in their possession will be tested.

The owner of the barn is also being held for questioning. The manager of
Bethlehem Inn faces possible revocation of his license for violating
health and safety regulations by allowing people to stay in the stable.
Civil authorities are also investigating the zoning violations involved in
maintaining livestock in a commercially-zoned district.

The location of the minor child will not be released, and the prospect for
a quick resolution to this case is doubtful. Asked about when Jesus would
be returned to his mother, a Child Protective Service spokesperson said,
"The father is middle-aged and the mother definitely underage. We are
checking with officials in Nazareth to determine what their legal
relationship is.

Joseph has admitted taking Mary from her home in Nazareth because of a
census requirement. However, because she was obviously pregnant when they
left, investigators are looking into other reasons for their departure.
Joseph is being held without bond on charges of molestation, kidnapping,
child endangerment, and statutory rape.

Mary was taken to the Bethlehem General Hospital where she is being
examined by doctors. Charges may also be filed against her for
endangerment. She will also undergo psychiatric evaluation because of her
claim that she is a virgin and that the child is from God.

The director of the psychiatric wing said, "I don't profess to have the
right to tell people what to believe, but when their beliefs adversely
affect the safety and well-being of others - in this case her child - we
must consider her a danger to others. The unidentified drugs at the scene
didn't help her case, but I'm confidant that with the proper therapy
regiment we can get her back on her feet."

A spokesperson for the governor's office said, "Who knows what was going
through their heads? But regardless, their treatment of the child was
inexcusable, and the involvement of these others frightening. There is
much we don't know about this case, but for the sake of the child and the
public, you can be assured that we will pursue this matter to the end."

HOPALONG CASSIDY

Not the brightest of cowboys, Hopalong arrived in town looking for a
little something from the ladies. A saloon barman gave him an address
and told him he could find anything he wanted there.

When the young man arrived, he saw a door with a small panel on it. He
knocked and the panel slid open. A female voice asked what he wanted.

"I want to get screwed," said Hop.

"OK, but this is a private club. Slide twenty bucks in the slot as an
initiation fee," answered the voice.

Hop slid twenty dollars in the slot, the panel closed, and ten minutes
passed. Nothing happened.

Hop then began to pound on the door, and the panel slid open.

"Hey," exclaimed Hop, "I want to get screwed!"

"What?" said the voice, "Again?"

Terrible smell

Maxine took her car to her mechanic. She told him, "Every
time I take any of my friends out in my car, after a while
there is this terrible smell!! It never happens when I am on
my own"

This quite intrigued the mechanic so he said, "OK, lets go
for a spin and see what the problem is". So off they went.
She drove down a one-way street in the wrong direction at 60
MPH, swerving, hitting the curb on both sides of the street,
narrowly missing three pedestrians on pedestrian crossings,
ran several red lights, and just missed a policeman on street
traffic duty.

They returned to the shop and she said, "There it is now;
there's that terrible smell. Can you smell it?"

The mechanic said, "Smell it? Hell lady, I'm sitting on it".

[nilesfunnies] OT: Atrocious Seasonal Joke


One Christmas Eve, a frenzied young man ran into a pet shop
looking for an unusual Christmas gift for his wife. The shop
owner suggested a parrot, named Chet, which could sing famous
Christmas carols. This seemed like the perfect gift.
"How do I get him to sing?" The young man asked, excitedly.

"Simply hold a lighted match directly under his feet." was
the shop owner's reply.
The shop owner held a lighted match under the parrot's left
foot. Chet began to sing:
"Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! ..."
The shop owner then held another match under the parrot's
right foot. Then Chet's tune changed, and the air was filled
with:
"Silent Night, Holy Night..."

The young man was so impressed that he paid the shop-keeper
and ran home as quickly as he could with Chet under his arm.
When the wife saw her gift she was overwhelmed.

"How beautiful!" She exclaimed, "Can he talk?"

"No," the young man replied, "But he can sing. Let me show
you." So the young man whipped out his lighter and placed it
under Chet's left foot, as the shop-keeper had shown him,
and Chet crooned:
"Jingle Bells! Jingle bells!..."
The man then moved the lighter to Chet's right foot, and out came:
"Silent Night, Holy night..."

The wife, her face filled with curiosity, then asked,
"What if we hold the lighter between his legs?"
"No idea - let's try it," he answered, eager to please his wife.
So they held the lighter between Chet's legs. Chet twisted
his face, cleared his throat, and the little parrot sang out
loudly like it was the performance of his life:
"Chet's nuts roasting on an open fire...."

[nilesfunnies] Fw: As a child,

As a child, I remember that easily the most disappointing presents were
the obviously secondhand jigsaw puzzles from my Uncle Alan. First, I
always hated jigsaw puzzles. Second, they were shit pictures of
carnations or Jesus (he was an avid godbotherer, Billy Graham acolyte),
not blazing dogfights between Spitfires and Me109's, or ladies with no
clothes on.
Third, there were invariably pieces missing, quite often pieces from
other puzzles included. On one occasion, the puzzle was in an entirely
unrelated box with a different idyllic country scene on the front.

I tried to pass them on to my sister, who loved puzzles, in an act of
faux generosity, but after the first time she was having none of that.

I think he must have bought a job lot at a Church fete for 1s6d, and
each year for about 7 years, he sent one. Having to write a thankyou
letter for this shite was a lesson in hypocrisy which set me against
polite society for life. These days, kids would grass to Social Services
via a hotline, as anything worth less than £200 is considered child abuse.

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Quick Thinking

An office manager was given the task of hiring an individual to fill a job
opening. After sorting through a stack of resumes he found four people who
were equally qualified. He decided to call the four in and ask them only
one question. Their answer would determine which of them would get the
job.

The day came and as the four sat around the conference room table the
interviewer asked, "What is the fastest thing you know of?"

Acknowledging the first man on his right, the man replied, "A THOUGHT". It
just pops into your head. There's no warning that it's on the way; it's
just there. A thought is the fastest thing I know of."

"That's very good!" replied the interviewer. "And now you sir?" he asked
the second man.

"Hmm.... let me see. A blink! It comes and goes and you don't know that it
ever happened. A BLINK is the fastest thing I know of."

"Excellent!" said the interviewer. "The blink of an eye, that's a very
popular cliché for speed."

He then turned to the third man who was contemplating his reply.

"Well, out at my dad's ranch, you step out of the house and on the wall
there's a light switch. When you flip that switch, way out across the
pasture the light in the barn comes on in less than an instant. Yep,
TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of."

The interviewer was very impressed with the third answer and thought he
had found his man. "It's hard to beat the speed of light" he said.
Turning to the fourth and final man, the interviewer posed the same
question.

The last man replied, "After hearing the three previous answers, It's
obvious to me that the fastest thing known is DIARRHEA."

"WHAT!?" said the interviewer, stunned by the response.

"Oh I can explain." said the fourth man. "You see the other day I wasn't
feeling so good and I ran for the bathroom. But, before I could THINK,
BLINK, or TURN ON THE LIGHT, I had already shit in my pants.

He got the job.

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Marriage


You have two choices in life: You can stay single and be miserable, or
get married and wish you were dead.

At a cocktail party, one woman said to another, "Aren't you wearing your
wedding ring on the wrong finger?" "Yes, I am. I married the wrong
man."

A lady inserted an ad in the classifieds: "Husband Wanted". Next day she
received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have
mine."

When a woman steals your husband, there is no better revenge than to let
her keep him.

A woman is incomplete until she is married. Then she is finished.

A little boy asked his father, "Daddy, how much does it cost to get
married?" Father replied, "I don't know son, I'm still paying."

A young son asked, "Is it true Dad, that in some parts of Africa a man
doesn't know his wife until he marries her?" Dad replied, "That happens in
every country, son."

Then there was a woman who said, "I never knew what real happiness was
until I got married, and by then, it was too late."

Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.

If you want your spouse to listen and pay strict attention to every word
you say -- talk in your sleep.

Just think, if it weren't for marriage, men would go through life thinking
they had no faults at all.

First guy says, "My wife's an angel!" Second guy remarks, "You're lucky,
mine's still alive."

Husband and wife are waiting at the bus stop with their nine children.
A blind man joins them after a few minutes. When the bus arrives, they
find it overloaded and only the wife and the nine kids are able to fit

a while, the husband gets irritated by the ticking of the stick of the

A Minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his
Sunday sermon. Four worms were placed into four separate jars.

The first worm was put into a jar of alcohol.
The second worm was put into a jar of cigarette smoke.
The third worm was put into a jar of sperm.
The fourth worm was put into a jar of good, clean soil.

At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the following
results:

The first worm in alcohol - dead.
Second worm in cigarette smoke - dead.
Third worm in sperm - dead.
Fourth worm in good, clean soil - Alive

So the Minister asked the congregation - "What can you learn from this

At a Senior Citizen's luncheon,....

At a Senior Citizen's luncheon, an elderly gentleman and an elderly lady
struck up a conversation and discovered that they both loved to fish.

Since both of them were widowed, they decided to go fishing together the
next day. The gentleman picked the lady up, and they headed to the river
to his fishing boat and started out on their adventure.

They were riding down the river when there was a fork in the river, and
the gentleman asked the lady, "Do you want to go up or down?"

All of a sudden the lady stripped off her shirt and pants and made mad
passionate love to the man right there in the boat!

When they finished, the man couldn't believe what had just happened, but
he had just experienced the best sex that he'd had in years.

They fished for a while and continued on down the river, when soon they
came upon another fork in the river.

He again asked the lady, "Up or down?"

There she went again, stripped off her clothes, and made wild passionate
love to him again.

This really impressed the elderly gentleman, so he asked her to go
fishing again the next day. She said yes and there they were the next
day, riding in the boat when they came upon the fork in river, and the
elderly gentleman asked, "Up or down ?"

The woman replied, "Down."

A little puzzled and disappointed, the gentleman guided the boat down the
river when he came upon another fork in the river and he asked the lady,
"Up or down ?"

She replied, "Up."

This really confused the gentleman so he asked,

"What's the deal? Yesterday, every time I asked you if you wanted to go up

Ex-minister Stephen Twigg has been given a £50 fixed penalty notice
after being arrested for being drunk.

Mr Twigg was arrested at 1915 GMT on Monday in central London for being
drunk and incapable in a public place and taken to Marylebone police
station.

He was given a fixed penalty notice and released just before 2330 GMT.

Mr Twigg, who lost his seat in May, is best known for toppling Michael
Portillo at the 1997 election.

Schools minister

A spokeswoman for Scotland Yard said: "At 7.19pm a 38-year-old was
arrested in Orchard Street, W1, for being drunk and incapable in a
public place.

"He was taken to Marylebone Police Station. He was issued with a fixed
penalty notice for being drunk in a public place."

After his surprise victory over Mr Portillo in 1997, which came to be
seen as a symbol of Tony Blair's landslide victory, Mr Twigg rose
through the ranks to be schools minister.

But earlier this year, he narrowly lost Enfield South seat his seat to
Conservative candidate David Burrowes.

He has been working as the chairman of Blairite think tank Progress and
is director of the Foreign Policy Centre.

Wilson runs a nail factory and decides his business needs a bit of
advertising. He has a chat with a friend who works in marketing and he
offers to make a TV ad for Wilson's Nails.

"Give me a week," says the friend, "and I'll be back with a tape."

A week goes by and the marketing executive comes to see Wilson. He puts
a cassette in the video and presses play. A Roman soldier is busy
nailing Jesus to the cross. He turns to face the camera and says with a
grin "Use Wilson's Nails, they'll hold anything."

Wilson goes mad shouting: "What is the matter with you? They'll never
show that on TV. Give it another try, but no more Romans crucifying
Jesus!"

A week passes and Wilson waits impatiently. The marketing executive
arrives and puts on the new video. A naked man with long hair, gasping

over the hill, hot on his trail. One of them turns to camera and says

[nilesfunnies] Fw: 10 Top Tips for Life


10 Top Tips for Life

*10 Top Tips for Life*

1. Don't waste money on expensive ipods. Simply think of your favourite
tune and hum it. If you want to "switch tracks", simply think of
another song you like and hum that instead.

2. Men: When listening to your favourite CD, simply turn up the sound to
the volume you desire; then turn it down three notches. This will
save your wife from having to do it.

3. Banging two pistachio nutshells together gives the impression that a
very small horse is approaching.

4. Ladies: If invited to a fancy party, go wearing hair rollers,
so that the hostess will think you are going somewhere REALLY
important afterwards.

5. Homeowners: Don't hesitate to tell the rest of us how much your house
has appreciated in value since you bought it. The more frequently you
give us updates, the greater will be our delight at your good fortune
and our admiration and respect for your financial prescience.

6. White wine splashed onto a red wine stain will clean it up quickly.
Similarly, fat splashes on clothes can be easily removed by rubbing
salad onto the affected area.

7. Drivers: If a car breaks down or stalls in front of you, beep your
horn and wave your arms frantically. This should help the car start
and send the stranded driver on his way.

8. Don't promise what you can't deliver - you'll always get found out in
the end.

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Tomato c*****y

I would consider it a great kindness if everyone could avoid mentioning
tomato chutney at this time of year for this is when I become a c*****y
widower. When great seething cauldrons of the stuff glurp and slurp to
volcanic mud bath arbitrarily defined perfection; when every erupting
tetter gives off a greenish gas of unknown toxicity; when every square
centimetre of cat-sprawling space in the kitchen is occupied by a huge
variety of glass jars that have been saved all year in an as yet
undiscovered dungeon to await filling with the stuff. It is when the
spidery copper plate characters in her grandmother's hand-written
notebook, dated 1860 because it belonged to *her* grandmother, are pored
over like spells on ancient papyri. It is when I'm tasked with tracking
down an enormous .TIFF file I created some years ago for printing on
six-up self-adhesive labels which proclaim the contents of the filled jars
as "Mothers' Union Home Maid Tomato Chutney".

Actually I'm quite proud of that file. It took ages to get right. In each
corner is a tiny clipart picture of a cluster of plums that pass muster as
tomatoes. The main title is set in a semi-circle banner of Avanti
calligraphy fonts. To comply with the law, there's a list of ingredients
which I'd set in almost unreadable 6pt old English. About four years ago,
when she'd sold at least a 100 jars of stuff at the MU Christmas Fayre,
the local newspaper, the Messenger, discovered that buried among the
ingredients was 'eye of newt, ear of bat, tongue of toad'. They enlarged
the label and splashed it on the front page with the eye-catching
headline: 'Witches Launch Takeover Bid for village Mothers' Union'. My
punishment was thirty days cold suppers and no nookie, and since then my

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Leprechaun

Leprechaun
Bob is in a casino playing blackjack. He's been there all evening. He's
had a miserable run and lost almost everything. "Surely my luck must
change" he thinks to himself. "I'll give it one last go." He pulls from
his jacket pocket the deeds to his house. This represents everything he
has left in this world.

The croupier deals the cards and he picks them up. First a jack - looks
hopeful. Then a six "Sh*t !!!" he says to himself. "Sixteen - what am I
going to do?" He stares vacantly at the two cards in his hand as his
future seems to ebb away. What is he going to do ??

Suddenly a leprechaun appears on his shoulder and looks at the cards and
then at Bob. It starts jumping up and down saying "Twist, twist". Bob is
awakened from his reverie by the noise and looks, slightly disbelievingly
at the leprechaun.

"Who are you?" Bob says.

"Twist, twist" says the leprechaun.

"But I've got everything riding on this. I've already lost all of my money
and my car. If I lose this I've lost my house as well."

"Twist, twist" cries the leprechaun.

Bob looks at the leprechaun and thinks "Well perhaps ....." Eventually he
decides to trust the leprechaun. "Twist" he says to the croupier. He turns
the card offered. It is a two. Huge sigh of relief, perspiration wiped
from brow, buttocks unclenched. "I'm OK" Bob thinks.

"Twist, twist" the leprechaun says, jumping up and down again.

"But, it's eighteen. That's a good score. I've got a good chance with
that."

"Twist, twist"

"Are you sure??"

"Yeah, you'll be OK. Twist, twist"

Bob agonises for a few seconds and eventually reasons that the leprechaun
was right last time so he goes for it. "Twist, please" The croupier draws
another card - an ace!

"Wow" says Bob to himself and sits back thinking he could now recover all
he lost earlier. He is just about to place his cards face down when .....

"Twist, twist"

"What? But I've got 19. If I twist I'll probably go bust."

"Twist, twist. Go on!"

Bob thinks to himself that the leprechaun hasn't let him down yet so he
decides to back it one last time.

"Twist please."

The croupier draws the card. Slowly Bob reaches for it and pulls it up to
his hand. He looks at it. A two. Twenty One, a five card trick. He has
done it. He's got his house back, recovered all his money and made a few
grand on top. Yeeesssss!!!!!

The leprechaun who has now stopped jumping up and down is motionless,
staring at the cards. It turns to Bob and says "You jammy b*stard!!"

Leap and gambol through the hay,
As we watch the sunlight dance upon
A lake as smooth as glass,
And the many-coloured flowers that wave
From swirling seas of grass,
As we gaze out o'er the meadows
Soaked in silver morning dew,
We are glad to be here, once again,
On Platform 6 at Crewe."

[nilesfunnies] Fwd: Letter to God


There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose
job it was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses.

One day just before Christmas, a letter landed on
his desk, simply addressed in shaky handwriting to "God".

With no other clue on the envelope, he opened the
letter and read, "Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow living
on the State pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse.
It had £100 in it, which was all the money I had in
the world and no pension due until after Christmas.

Next week is Christmas and I had invited two of my
friends over for Xmas dinner. Without that money, I have
nothing to buy food with. I have no family to turn to, and
you are my only hope. God; can you please help me?"

The postal worker was really touched, and put a copy
of the letter up on the Staff Notice board, at the main
sorting office where he worked.

The letter touched the other postmen and they all
dug into their pockets and had a whip round. Between
them they raised £96.

Using an official franked Post Office envelope, they
sent the cash on to the old lady, and for the rest of the day,
all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of the nice thing
they had done.

Christmas came and went. A few days later, another
letter simply addressed to "God" landed in the Sorting Office.
Many of the postmen gathered around while the letter was
opened.

It read, "Dear God, How can I ever thank you enough
for what you did for me? Because of your generosity,
I was able to provide a lovely dinner for my friends.
We had a very nice day, and I told my friends of your
wonderful gift - in fact we haven't gotten over it and our
Vicar is beside himself with joy.

By the way, there was £4 missing. I think it must
have been those thieving cunts at the Post Office."

2 This firm has reduced the hours of work and the clerical staff still
now only have to be present between the hours of 7.00 a.m. and 6.00
p.m, on weekdays.

3 Daily prayers will be held each morning in the main office. The
clerical staff will be present.

4 Clothing must be of a sober nature. The clerical staff will not
disport themselves in raiment of bright colours, nor will they wear
hose, unless in good repair.

5 Overshoes and top-coats may not be worn in the office, but neck.
scarves and headwear may be worn in inclement weather.

6 A stove is provided for the benefit of clerical staff. Coal and wood
must be kept in the locker. It is recommended that each member of
staff bring 4 pounds of coal each day during cold weather.

7 No members of clerical staff may leave the room without permission
from Mr Rogers. The calls of nature are permitted and clerical staff
may use the garden below the second gate. This area must be kept in
good order.

8 No talking is allowed during business hours.

9 The craving for tobacco, wines and spirits is a human weakness and,
as such, is forbidden to all members of the clerical staff.

10 Now that the hours of business have been drastically reduced, the
partaking of food is allowed between the hours of 11.30 and noon, but
work will not on any account cease.

11 Members of clerical staff will provide their own pens. A new
sharpener is available, on application to Mr Rogers.

12 Mr Rogers will nominate a senior clerk to be responsible for the
cleaning of the main office, and all boys and juniors will report 40
minutes before prayers, and will remain after closing hours for
similar work. Brushes,-brooms, scrubbers and soap are provided by the
owners.

13 The new increased weekly wages are as hereunder detailed. Junior
hoes (up to 11 years) Is. 4d. Boys (to 14 years) 2s. ld. Juniors 4s.
3d. Junior clerks 8s. 7d. Clerks lOs. 9d. Senior clerks

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Blonde jokes - fourth bit


"Did you hear what happened?" Jim asked when he saw me walking down the
hallway at work.

"Hear what" I asked, my curiosity aroused.

"The Managing Director died this morning!"

"What?!" I asked, totally stunned. "What happened?"

"He was working through lunch when he had a heart attack" Jim began
explaining. "Everyone was gone except his secretary. You know the one."

"Boy do I. She's that young blonde babe."

"Yeah that's the one. Turns out she isn't too smart, though."

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"He kept yelling at her to 'call 9 9 9'. and she just stood there
waiting for him to give her the rest of the phone number."

buys a gun.

She goes to his apartment unexpectedly and when she opens the door she
finds him in the arms of a redhead. Well, the blonde is really angry. She
opens her purse to take out the gun, and as she does so she is overcome
with grief. She takes the gun and puts it to her head.

The boyfriend yells, "No, honey, don't do it."

The blonde replies, "Shut up, you're next."
