A seaman meets a pirate in a bar, and take turns boasting of their adventures on the high seas. The seaman notes that the pirate has a peg-leg, hook, and an eyepatch.
The seaman asks "So, how did you end up with the peg-leg?"
The pirate replies "We were in a storm at sea, and I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. Just as my men were pulling me out a shark bit my leg off."
"Wow!" said the seaman. "What about your hook"?
"Well...", replied the pirate, "While my men and I were plundering in the middle east, I was caught stealing from a merchant and the punishment for theft in the middle east is the loss of the hand that steals"
"Incredible!" remarked the seaman. "How did you get the eyepatch?"
"A sea gull dropping fell into my eye.", replied the pirate.
"You lost your eye to a sea gull dropping?" the sailor asked incredulously.
"Well...", said the pirate, "...it was my first day with the hook." -
A young guy from Montana moves to Seattle and goes to a big "everything under one roof" department store looking for a job.
The Manager says, "Do you have any sales experience?" The kid says "Yeah. I was a salesman back in Montana "
Well, the boss liked the kid and gave him the job.
"You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and see how you did."
His first day on the job was rough, but he got through it.
After the store was locked up, the boss came down. How many customers bought something from you today?
The kid says "one".
The boss says "Just one? Our salespeople average 20 to 30 customers a day. How much was the sale for?"
The kid says "$101,237.65".
The boss says "$101,237.65? What the heck did you sell?"
The kid says, "First, I sold him a small fish hook. Then I sold him a medium fishhook. Then I sold him a larger fishhook. Then I sold him a new fishing rod. Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast,so I told him he was going to need a boat, so we went down to the boat department and I sold him a twin engine Cruise Craft. Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to the automotive department and sold him that 4x4 Expedition."
The boss said "A guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a
BOAT and a TRUCK?"The kid said "No, the guy came in here to buy Tampons for his wife", and I said, "Dude, your weekend's shot. You should go fishing!"

John, the farmer, was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young layers (hens), also called 'pullets,' and ten roosters, whose job it was to fertilized eggs. The farmer kept records, and any rooster that didn't perform went into the soup pot and was replaced.
That took an awful lot of his time, so he bought a set of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone so John could tell from a distance which rooster was performing.Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report simply by listening to the bells.
The farmer's favorite rooster was old Butch, a very fine specimen. But on this particular morning, John noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all.John went to investigate. The other roosters were chasing pullets all over the place with bells-a-ringing. The pullets, upon hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. But to Farmer John's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring.
He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.John was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Renfrew County Fair, and he became an overnight sensation among the judges.
The result... The judges not only awarded old Butch the No Bell Piece Prize, but they awarded him the Pulletsurprise as well.Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making: who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most highly
coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention.Vote carefully this year...the bells are not always audible.

The dog food diet
I was buying Oscar a large bag of Purina Dog Chow at Wal-Mart and was about to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had, an elephant?
Anyway, being my usual jerk, I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, and that I was starting the Purina Diet again, although I probably shouldn't, because I'd ended up in the hospital last time, but that I had lost 50 pounds before and wanted to give it another try, even though I had awakened in an intensive care ward with IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet, and the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets, then simply eat one or two whenever you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete, and it's the only diet that has ever worked for me.
By this time, practically everyone in the line was listening. The woman asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish setter's butt and a car hit us both.

AND THEN THE FIGHT STARTED...
When I got home last night, my wife demanded that
I take her someplace expensive... so, I took her to a gas
station...And then the fight started....
After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.
The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.
She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application.When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.
She said, 'you should have dropped your pants.
You might have gotten disability, too.'And then the fight started...
My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table.
My wife asked, 'Do you know her?'
'Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to
drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since.''My God!' says my wife, 'who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?'
I rear-ended a car this morning. So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out of his car. You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little things just seem funny?
Yeah, well I couldn't believe it... he was a DWARF!!!
He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, 'I AM NOT HAPPY!!!'
So, I looked down at him and said, 'Well, then which one are you?'
And then the fight started...

'YES. YES, I DID. I'M A MUSTANG,'HE GLEAMED WITH PRIDE
'WHEN DID YOU GRADUATE?' I ASKED.HE ANSWERED, 'IN 1965. WHY DO YOU ASK?
''YOU WERE IN MY CLASS!', I EXCLAIMED. HE LOOKED AT ME CLOSELY.

Morris and his wife Esther went to the state fair every year and every year Morris would say, āEsther, Iād like to ride in that airplane.ā
Esther always replied, āI know Morris, but that airplane ride costs 50 bucks, and 50 bucks is 50 bucks.ā
One year Morris and Esther went to the fair and Morris said, āEsther, Iām 85 years old. If I donāt ride that airplane I might never get another chance.ā
Esther replied, āMorris, that airplane ride costs 50 bucks, and 50 bucks is 50 bucks.ā
The pilot overheard them and said, āFolks, Iāll make you a deal. Iāll take you both up for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say one word, I wonāt charge you; but if you say one word itās 50 bucks.ā
Morris and Esther agreed and up they went. The pilot did all kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word was heard. He did all his tricks over again, but still not a word.
When they landed, the pilot turned to Morris and said, āBy golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to yell out, but you didnāt.ā
Morris replied, āWell, I was gonna say something when Esther fell out of the airplane, but 50 bucks is 50 bucks....
