[nilesfunnies] Fwd: A True Scot

A Scottish soldier in full dress marches into a pharmacy to speak to
the chemist.

The Scot opens his sporran and pulls out a neatly folded cotton
bandanna, unfolds it to reveal a smaller silk square, which he also
unfolds to reveal a condom.

The condom has a number of patches on it. He holds it up, and eyes it
critically. 'How much to repair it?' the Scot asks the pharmacist.

'Six pence,' says the pharmacist.

'How much for a new one?' 'Ten pence,' says the pharmacist.

The Scot folds the condom into the silk square and the cotton
bandanna, places it in his sporran and marches out the door of the
pharmacy, kilt swinging.

A moment or two later the pharmacist hears a great shout go up,
followed by an even greater shout.

The Scot walks back into the pharmacy, and again speaks to the
pharmacist. 'The regiment has taken a vote,' the Scot says. 'We'll
have a new one.'

[nilesfunnies] Fwd: Fw: Mental Health Issues

Mental Health Issues
A man who had been in a mental home for some years finally seemed to have
improved to the point where it was thought he might be released.

The head of the institution, in a fit of commendable caution, decided,
however, to interview him first.

"Tell me," said he, "if we release you, as we are considering doing, what
do you intend to do with your life?'

The inmate said, "It would be wonderful to get back to real life and if I
do, I will certainly refrain from making my former mistake. I was a
nuclear physicist, you know, and it was the stress of my work in weapons
research that helped put me here. If I am released, I shall confine myself
to work in pure theory, where I trust the situation will be less difficult
and stressful."

"Marvellous," said the head of the institution.

"Or else," ruminated the inmate. "I might teach. There is something to be
said for spending one's life in bringing up a new generation of
scientists."

"Absolutely," said the head.

"Then again, I might write. There is considerable need for books on
science for the general public. Or I might even write a novel based on my
experiences in this fine institution."

"An interesting possibility," said the head.

"And finally, if none of these things appeals to me, I can always continue
to be a teakettle."

[nilesfunnies] Fwd: frisbee

I was standing in the park, wondering why a frisbee gets bigger as it
gets closer. Then it hit me.

[nilesfunnies] William Penn

William Penn, the founder and mayor of Philadelphia, had two aunts:
Hattie and Sophia, who were skilled in the baking arts. "Big Bill" was
petitioned by the citizens of his town because the three bakeries in the
town had during the Revolution raised the price of pies to the point
that only the rich could afford them.

He turned to his aunts and asked their advice. The wonderful old ladies
were so incensed over this situation that they offered to bake 100 pies
and sell them for 2 cents lower that any of the bakeries were charging.

They were not only successful in bringing the price of pastry down in
Philadelphia, but they established an historical item for the reference
books.

To this day, scholars still talk about the remarkable pie rates of
Penn's aunts.

[nilesfunnies] Fwd: Fw: HiFi

I bought some new headphones the other day. The left
one just went "Steak and kidney", while the right
one just went "Chicken and mushroom!"

That's the last time I buy anything from Pioneer.
