Try spelling Evian backwards: NAIVE (Right!)

3. If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhoea ... does that mean that one enjoys it?
4. There are three religious truths:
A. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah.

5. If people from Poland are called Poles, then why aren't people from Holland called Holes?
6. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?
7. Why do croutons come in airtight packages? Aren't they just stale bread to begin with?

10. If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, then doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners depressed?

** Two guys were discussing popular family trends on sex, marriage, and values.

** In a Divorce Court
"Mr. Clark, I have reviewed this case very carefully," the Judge said, "And I've decided to give your wife $775 a week,"

"That's very fair, your honour," the husband said. "And every now and then I'll try to send her a few bucks myself."
** The Diagnose
A doctor examining a woman who had been rushed to the Emergency Room, took the husband aside, and said,
"I don't like the looks of your wife at all."

"Me neither doc," said the husband. "But she's a great cook and really good with the kids".
** The curse
An old man goes to the Wizard to ask him if he can remove a curse he has been living with for the last 40 years.
The Wizard says, "Maybe, but you will have to tell me the exact words that were used to put the curse on you".
The old man says without hesitation, "I now pronounce you man and wife."

"OOPS"
** The Bikini
While shopping for vacation clothes, my husband and I passed a display of bathing suits. It had been at least ten years and twenty pounds since I had even considered buying a bathing suit, so sought my husband's advice.
"What do you think?" I asked. "Should I get a bikini or an all-in-one ?"
"Better get a bikini," he replied. "You'd never get it all in one."

He's still in intensive care!

Amusing Short Stories

Nov 17A
** Wrong Train
Some time ago, I decided to visit my sister who was living in France. I assumed that most French would speak English. I found that many people spoke only their own language and this included the ticket inspector on the train. He punched my ticket, then chatted cordially for a bit, making several expansive gestures. I simply nodded from time to time to show him that I was interested.
When he had gone, an American tourist, also on the train, leaned forward and asked if I spoke French.
"No," I admitted.
'Then that explains, he said, 'why you didn't bat an eyelid when he told you that you were on the wrong train.'
** Pinot Wines
There are many "pinot" wines on the market these days: Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Grigio are but a few.
There is also marketing research on a product for senior citizens from a new hybrid grape that acts as a diuretic and will reduce the number of trips an older person has to make to the bathroom during the night.
They will be marketing the new wine as ... Pinot More.
** Right Neighbourly
Archie, a successful business man becomes fed up with all the stress of big city life and decides to chuck it all. He takes his savings and buys a large ranch in the middle of the outback, just north of Barossa Valley in South Australia.
After a couple of months of enjoying the quietness and solitude he hears the drumming of hoofs outside his home. Seizing his rifle he challenges the man riding up on the horse, "G’day neighbour, hold it right there.”
The rider says, 'I'm your neighbour, I have a ranch only 20 miles from here, and I want to invite you to a Welcome Party I'm throwing for you next Saturday. There's going to be music, dancing, hugging, kissing, drinking, fighting ... we'll have a great time.'
Not wanting to be unfriendly the new rancher lowers the rifle and asks, "How should I dress?'
'Blimey, mate, it don't matter,' replied the neighbour, 'There’s only gonna be the two of us.'
** The Cadge
Every time, Peter, the man next door headed toward Paul's house, Paul knew he was coming to borrow something, he was always doing so and it was driving him mad.
'Peter won't get away with it this time,' muttered Paul to Liz, his wife, 'Watch this.'
'Er, I wonder if you'd be using your hedge trimmer this morning?" asked Paul the neighbour.
'Crikey, I'm terribly sorry,' said Paul with a smug look, 'but the fact of the matter is, I'll be using it all day.'
'In that case,' smiled Peter, 'You won't be using your golf clubs, mind if I borrow them?
