Soup Ladle
Karl invited his mother over for dinner. During
the meal, his mother eyed his beautiful roommate,
suspicious that there was more than just a "roommate"
situation going on.
Karl saw her staring at Ellen. "I know what you're
thinking, mom, but Ellen and I are just friends."
A week later, Ellen said, "Karl, ever since your
mother came to dinner, I can't find the silver soup
ladle. Surely she wouldn't have taken it, would she?"
"I really don't think so," Karl replied. "I'll write
her a letter to ask, though." He got a sheet of paper,
sat down, and wrote, "Dear Mom, I'm not saying you took
our silver soup ladle, and I'm not saying you didn't
take it. But our soup ladle has been missing ever since
you came to dinner."
A few days later, he received a reply from his mother.
"Dear son, I'm not saying that you're sleeping with
Ellen, and I'm not saying that you're not sleeping with
Ellen. But if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would
have found the soup ladle by now. Love, Mom."

25 YEARS OF MARRIAGE
A man and his wife go to their honeymoon hotel for their 25th
anniversary.
As the couple reflected on that magical evening 25 years ago, the wife
asked the husband,
"When you first saw my naked body in front of you, what was going through
your mind?"
The husband replied,
"All I wanted to do was to f*** your brains out, and suck your tits dry."
Then, as the wife undressed, she asked, "What are you thinking now?"
He replied, "It looks as if I did a pretty good job."

A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad
attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth
was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to
change the bird's attitude by consistently saying polite words, playing soft
music, and anything he could think of to clean up the bird's vocabulary.
Finally, John got fed up, and he yelled at the parrot. The bird yelled back.
John shook the parrot, and the bird got angrier and ruder. John threw his
hands up in desperation, grabbed the bird and put it in the
refrigerator freezer. For a few minutes, the parrot squawked and kicked
and screamed, and then suddenly there was quiet.
Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the bird,
John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped
out onto John's outstretched arm and said, "I believe I may have offended
you with my rude language and actions. I am truly sorry, and I will do every
thing I can do to correct my rude behavior."
John was stunned at the bird's change in attitude. As he was about to ask
the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird
continued, "May I ask what the chicken did?"

I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will take place
on
December 23rd at Luigi's Open Pit Barbecue. There will be lots of spiked
eggnog and a small band playing traditional carols. . . feel free to sing
along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up dressed as Santa Claus
to
light the Christmas tree! Exchange of gifts among employees can be done
at
that time; however, no gift should be over $10.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.

In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our Jewish employees.
We
recognize that Hanukkah is an important holiday that often coincides with
Christmas (though unfortunately not this year). However, from now on we're
calling it our "Holiday Party. " The same policy applies to employees who
are
celebrating Kwanzaa at this time. There will be no Christmas tree and no
Christmas carols sung.
Happy Holidays to you and your family.

Regarding the anonymous note I received from a member of Alcoholics
Anonymous requesting a non-drinking table, I'm happy to accommodate this
request, but, don't forget, if I put a sign on the table that reads, "AA
Only, " you won't be anonymous anymore. In addition, forget about the
gifts
exchange-no gifts will be allowed since the union members feel that $10 is
too much money.

I've arranged for members of Overeaters Anonymous to sit farthest from the
dessert buffet and pregnant women closest to the restrooms. Gays are
allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit with the gay

Yes, there will be a flower arrangement for the gay men's table. Happy

Vegetarians-I've had it with you people! ! We're going to hold this party
at
Luigi's Open Pit whether you like it or not, you can just sit at the table
farthest from the "grill of death, " as you put it, and you'll get salad
bar

feelings,
too. They scream when you slice them. I've heard them scream. I'm
hearing
them right now. . . Ha!
I hope you all have a rotten holiday!

I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Patty Lewis a speedy recovery

Happy Holidays!

A team of archaeologists was excavating in Israel when they came
upon a cave. Written across the wall of the cave were the
following symbols, in this order of appearance:
A woman, a donkey, a shovel, a fish, and a Star of David.
They decided that this was a unique find and the writings were at
least three thousand years old. They chopped out the piece of
stone and had it brought to the museum where archaeologists from
all over the world came to study the ancient symbols. They held a
huge meeting after months of conferences to discuss what they
could agree was the meaning of the markings. The President of
their society stood up and pointed at the first drawing and said:
"This looks like a woman. We can judge that this race was family-
oriented and held women in high esteem. You can also tell they
were intelligent, as the next symbol resembles a donkey, so, they
were smart enough to have animals help them till the soil. The
next drawing looks like a shovel of some sort, which means they
even had tools to help them. Even further proof of their high
intelligence is the fish which means that if a famine had hit the
earth, whereby the food didn't grow, they would take to the sea
for food. The last symbol appears to be the Star of David which
means they were evidently Hebrews."
The audience applauded enthusiastically and the President smiled
and said, "I'm glad to see that you are all in full agreement
with our interpretations." Suddenly a little old man stood up in
the back of the room and said, "Idiots! You are all wrong about
what the writings say. First of all, everyone knows that Hebrew
is not read from left to right, but from right to left. Look
again. ... It now says: "Holy Mackerel, Dig The Ass On That
Woman!"

Four Dads went golfing one day. Three of them headed to the first
tee while the fourth went into the club house to take care of the bill. The three men started talking, bragging about their sons: The
first man told the others: "My son is a homebuilder and he is so successful that he gave a friend a new home for free."
The second man said: "My son was a car salesman and now he owns a
multiline dealership. He's so successful that he gave a friend a new
Mercedes, fully loaded."
The third man, not wanting to be out done, bragged: "My son is a
stockbroker and he's doing so well that he gave his friend an entire stock portfolio."
The fourth man joined them on the tee after a few minutes of
taking care of business. The first man mentioned, "We were just talking about our sons, how is yours doing?"
The fourth man replied: "Well, my son is gay and dances in a gay
bar. I'm not totally thrilled about the dancing job, but he must be doing good. His last three boyfriends gave him a house, a brand new Mercedes, and a stock portfolio.

The convict-------------
An escaped convict, imprisoned for 1st degree murder, had spent 25
years of his life sentence in prison. He escaped, and while on
the run, broke into a house at midnight and tied up a young couple who
had been sleeping in the bedroom. He tied the man to a chair on one side
of the room and his wife on the bed. He got on the bed right over the
woman, and it appeared he was kissing her neck. Suddenly he got up and
left the room. As soon as possible the husband made his way across the
room to his bride, his chair in tow, and whispered, "Honey, this guy
hasn't seen a woman in years. I saw him kissing on your neck and then he
left in a hurry. Just cooperate and do anything he wants. If he wants to
have sex with you, just go along with it and pretend you like it.
Whatever you do, don't fight him or make ! ! ! ! him mad. Our lives depend
on it! Be
strong and I love you. " After spitting out the gag in her mouth, the
half-naked wife replied, "Dear, I'm so relieved you feel that way. You're
right, he hasn't seen a woman in years, but he wasn't kissing my neck . . .
He was whispering in my ear. He said he thinks you're really cute and
asked if we kept the Vaseline in the bathroom. Here he comes. . . Be
strong and I love you too. " --------------------------
Father, it has been one month since my last confession. I have had sex with
Nookie Green every week for the last month--Nookie Green seems to be very
popular with my male parishioners, the Priest thinks. He tells the sinner,
"you are forgiven. Go out and Say three Hail Mary's" The priest ask, "Who is
Nookie Green? " "A new woman in the neighborhood, " the sinner replies.
The next morning in Church the priest is preparing to deliver his sermon,
when suddenly a gorgeously tall woman enters. All the men's eyes fall upon
her, and she sits down right in front of the priest. Her dress is green and
way to short, with matching shiny emerald green shoes.
The priest and alter boys gasp, as the woman in the matching green shoes and
dress, sits with her legs slightly spread apart revealing the lack of
undergarments. The priest turns to the alter boy and ask, "Is that Nookie
Green? " The alter boy's eyes are popping out of his head, as he replies. "NO
FATHER, I THINK IT'S THE REFLECTION OFF HER SHOES"

"So what's your problem? asked the others.

A blonde walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer.
She says she's going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow
$5,000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for
the loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce. The car
is
parked on the street in front of the bank, she has the title and everything
checks out. The bank agrees to accept the car as
collateral for the loan.
The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the blonde
for using a $250,000 Rolls as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee
of the bank then proceeds to drive the Rolls into the bank's underground
garage and parks it there.
Two weeks later, the blonde returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest,
which comes to $15.41.
The loan officer says, "Miss, we are very happy to have had your business,
and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little
puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a
multimillionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow
$5,000?"
The blonde replies..."Where else in New York City can I park my car for two
weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?"
Finally, a smart blonde joke.

One of the city's top cardiac specialist died. At his funeral, the
coffin was placed in front of a huge mock-up of a heart made up of red
flowers.
When the pastor finished with his sermon, and after everyone said their
good-byes, the large heart opened. The coffin rolled inside and the
heart closed again.
At that moment, one of the mourners burst into a very loud fit of
laughter.
Irritated by his insensitivity, the guy next to him asked. "This is a
Funeral mate, why in the hell are you laughing?"
Trying to hold his laughter for a moment, the man replied, "I was just
thinking about my own funeral, I'm a gynaecologist."
A woman was shopping at her local supermarket, where she selected a quart of
milk, a carton of eggs, some juice, and a package of bacon. As the woman was
placing her items on the belt to check out, a drunk who was standing behind
her watched.
The drunk said, "You must be single."
The woman, a bit startled, looked at her four items on the belt and seeing
nothing particularly unusual about her
selections said, "Well, y'know, that's right. But how on earth did you know
that?"
The drunk said, "Cause you're uglier 'n sh**."

Mildred was a 93-year-old woman who was particularly despondent over the
recent death of her husband, Earl.
She decided that she would just kill herself and join him in death.
Thinking that it would be best to get it over
with quickly, she took out Earl's old Army pistol and made the decision to
shoot herself in the heart, since it was so badly broken in the first place.
Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and burden
someone, she called her doctor's office to inquire as to just exactly where
the heart would be on a woman.
The doctor said, "Your heart would be just below your left breast."
Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound
to her knee.

Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get
there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven...don't step
on the ducks!" So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all
over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although
they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on
one.
Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw. St. Peter
chains them together and says "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to
spend eternity chained to this ugly man!"
The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck, and along comes
St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing, and with him is another extremely ugly
man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first
woman.
The third woman has observed all this and, not wanting to be chained
for all eternity to an ugly man, is very, VERY careful where she steps.
She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St.
Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on
... very tall, long eyelashes, muscular, and thin.
St. Peter chains them together without saying a word. The woman remarks, "I
wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?"
The guy says, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck!"

Cinderella agrees to be home by 2 a.m. The appointed

A wonderful Message by George Carlin:
The paradox of our time in history is that we have
taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider
freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more,
but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have
bigger houses and smaller families, more
conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees
but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment,
more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but
less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too
recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get
too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read
too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our
values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate
too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life.
We've added years to life not life to years. We've
been all the way to the moon and back, but have
trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor.
We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've
done larger things, but not better things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We
write more, but learn less. We plan more, but
accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to
wait. We build more computers to hold more
information, to produce more copies than ever, but
we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow
digestion, big men and small character, steep
profits and shallow relationships. These are the
days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier
houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick
trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one
night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do
everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a
time when there is much in the showroom window and
nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can
bring this letter to you, and a time when you can
choose either to share this insight, or to just hit
delete.
Remember, spend some time with your loved ones,
because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to
you in awe, because that little person soon will
grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you,
because that is the only treasure you can give with
your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.
Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and
your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and
an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep
inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for
someday that person will not be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak, and give time
to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we
take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
