    I was told when i was young that putting lard on your uh-huh would make it grow. Unfortunately all we had in the house was crisco shortening. Wish i would have read the label a little better.

    Blond: Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with those expensive double-glazed energy efficient kind, but this week I got a call from the contractor, complaining his work had been completed a year ago and I had yet to pay for them. Boy, oh boy, did we go around and around! Just because I'm a blonde does not mean I'm automatically stupid. So, I proceeded to tell him just what this fast-talking sales guy had told me last year - namely, that in one year, the windows would pay for themselves. There was silence on the other end of the line, so I just hung up. I have not heard anything back. Guess I won that stupid argument.



    A teacher is explaining biology to her 4th grade students. "Human beings are the only animals that stutter," she says. A little girl raises her hand. "I had a kitty-cat who stuttered," she volunteered. The teacher, knowing how precious some of these stories could become, asked the girl to describe the incident. "Well", she began, "I was in the back yard with my kitty and the Rottweiler who lives next door got a running start and before we knew it, he jumped over the fence into our yard!" "That must've been scary," said the teacher. "It sure was," said the little girl. "My kitty went 'Fffff, Fffff, Fffff,' and before he could say 'F*&%,' the Rottweiler ate him!"



    How can you tell a poisonous water snake from a non-poisonous one? Well, if you get bit and you die, that would be the poisonous one.




    The train was quite crowded, so a U. S. Marine walked the entire length looking for a seat, but the only seat left was taken by a well dressed, middle-aged, French woman's poodle. The war-weary Marine asked, "Ma'am, may I have that seat?" The French woman just sniffed and said to no one in particular, "Americans are so rude. My little Fifi is using that seat."

    The Marine walked the entire train again, but the only seat left was under that dog. "Please, ma'am. May I sit down? I'm very tired." She snorted, "Not only are you Americans rude, you are also arrogant!"

    This time the Marine didn't say a word; he just picked up the little dog, tossed it out the train window, and sat down. The woman shrieked, "Someone must defend my honor! Put this American in his place!"

    An English gentleman sitting nearby spoke up, "Sir, you Americans often seem to have a penchant for doing the wrong thing. You hold the fork in the wrong hand. You drive your autos on the wrong side of the road. And now, sir, you seem to have thrown the wrong bitch out the window."



    Three blondes are sitting by the side of a river holding fishing poles with the lines in the water. A Game Warden comes up behind them, taps them on the shoulder and says, "Excuse me, ladies, I'd like to see your fishing licenses."

    "We don't have any." replied the first blonde. "Well, if your going to fish, you need fishing licenses." said the Game Warden. "But officer," replied the second blonde, "we aren't fishing. We all have magnets at the end of our lines and we're collecting debris off the bottom of the river." The Game Warden lifted up all the lines and, sure enough, there were horseshoe magnets tied on the end of each line.

    "Well, I know of no law against it," said the Game Warden, "take all the debris you want." And with that, the Game Warden left. As soon as the Game Warden was out of sight, the three blondes started laughing hysterically. "What a dumb Fish Cop," the second blonde said to the other two, "doesn't he know that there are steelhead trout in this river?!"

    It was a sweltering August day in 1937 when the Cohen brothers entered the posh Dearborn, Michigan, offices of Henry Ford. "Mr. Ford," announced Norman Cohen, the eldest of the three. "We have a remarkable invention that will revolutionize the automobile industry." Ford looked skeptical, but their threat to offer it to the competition kept his interest piqued. "We would like to demonstrate it to you in person." After a little cajoling, they brought Mr. Ford outside and asked him to enter a black automobile parked in front of the building. Hyman Cohen, the middle brother, opened the door of the car and said, "Please step inside, Mr. Ford." "What!" shouted the tycoon, "Are you crazy? It must be two hundred degrees in that car!"

    "It is," smiled the youngest brother, Max, "but sit down Mr. Ford, and push the white button." Intrigued, Ford pushed the button. All of a sudden a whoosh of freezing air started blowing from vents all around the car, and within seconds the automobile was not only comfortable, it was quite cool. "This is amazing!" exclaimed Ford. "How much do you want for the patent?" Norman spoke up, "The price is one million dollars." Then he paused. "And there is something else: The name 'Cohen Brothers Air-Conditioning' must be stamped right next to the Ford logo!"

    "Money is no problem," retorted Ford, "but no way will I have a Jewish name next to my logo on my cars!" They haggled back and forth for a while and finally they settled. Five million dollars, but the Cohens' name would be left off. However, the first names of the Cohen brothers would be forever emblazoned upon the console of every Ford air conditioning system. And that is why, even today, whenever you enter a Ford vehicle, you will see those three names clearly printed on the air conditioning control panel: NORM, HI and MAX.

    A man goes to the dentist to have a tooth pulled. The dentist takes out a needle to give the man a shot of Novocain but the man objects, saying "No way, no needles, I can't stand needles." The dentist starts to hook up the nitrous but the man again objects, "No gas, please, the mask on my face is suffocating to me." The dentist then asks if the man has any objection to taking a pill. "No," said the patient, "I'm fine with pills." The dentist then returns and says, "Here's a Viagra tablet." The patient says "Wow, I didn't know Viagra worked as a pain pill." "It doesn't," said the dentist, "but it will give you something to hold on to when I pull out your tooth."

    Two women are walking home after a girlie night out. They are very drunk and the walk home is taking some time due to their intoxicated state. Eventually, they find themselves desperate for a wee. At that particular moment, they are passing a church and decide to go behind the headstones in the graveyard. As they finish they both realize they have nothing to 'freshen-up' with so the first woman decides to use her knickers and then throw them away.

    The second woman is wearing very expensive underwear and is reluctant to lose them, when she notices a new grave nearby with lots of fresh flowers, amongst which is a very lavish bouquet with a thick soft ribbon. Just the job' she decides and without another thought, duly drags the bouquet over and uses the ribbon to dry herself. Their task completed, the women continue staggering home.

    The next morning, the husband of the first woman phones the husband of the second. "We need to keep an eye on our wives. Mine came home with no knickers on last night." "You think you've got problems" exclaims the second husband "My wife came home last night with a card stuck up her *($# that said, "We'll Never Forget You - From All the Lads at the Fire Station"

    Sorry folks, but this is the end of the "Humor" thread.

    Also I am sorry for posting this Mr Moderator but it is how I feel and I see nothing wrong with it.


    When a so-called joke get pulled because of being political that is a bit much. I re-read that joke and not one 4-letter word was printed, however, the two words, Conservative and Liberal were used. When we have to blot out something like that in a funny, I think it is time to delete the entire thread on humor because there is no longer any humor.

    Sorry to have offended but then, I am also offended and think this a bit silly.

    Dennis,

    We certainly appreciate your humor that you share here in this thread, I personally enjoy quite a bit of it.

    Rules are rules however and we all know that political controversy has no place here on FHC. While many here may have found your liberal vs conservative joke funny, a few almost certainly would not. So yes, even political funnies are subject to moderation.

    I appreciate where you are coming from.

    The part that really gets me is that this was all about beer; not politics. And here I read over and over and over how people on this forum like to talk about beer. I stand corrected.

    I lost a very dear friend and drinking buddy in a tragic accident this weekend.

    He got his finger caught in a wedding band.

    A man wanted to become a monk so he went to the monastery and talked to the head monk.
    The head monk said, "You must take a vow of silence and can only say two words every three years."
    The man agreed and after the first 3 years, the head monk came to him and said, "What are your two words?"
    "Food cold!" the man replied.
    Three more years went by and the head monk came to him and said "What are your two words?"
    "Robe dirty!" the man exclaimed.
    Three more years went by and the head monk came to him and said, "What are your two words?"
    "I quit!" said the man.
    "Well," the head monk replied, "I am not surprised. You have done nothing but complain ever since you got here!"

    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 only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to 'clean up' the bird's vocabulary.

    Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even more rude. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer.

    For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.

    Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."

    John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude.

    As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird spoke-up, very softly, ...


    "May I ask what the turkey did?"

    A big city lawyer went duck hunting in South Louisiana. He shot and dropped a bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a fence. As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up onhis tractor and asked him what he was doing. The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field, and now I'm going into retrieve it."

    The old farmer replied. "This is my property, and you are not coming over here."

    The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial attorneys in the U.S. and, if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and take everything you own."

    The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we do things in Louisiana. We rule ourselves under the Napoleonic Code. We settle small disagreements like this with the Louisiana Three Kick Rule."

    The lawyer asked, "What is the Louisiana Three Kick Rule?" The Farmer replied. "Well, first I kick you three times and then you kick me three times, and so on, back and forth, until someone gives up."

    The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local custom. The old farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the city feller.

    His first kick planted the toe of his heavy work boot into the lawyer's groin and dropped him to his knees where he immediately vomited.

    The geezer's second kick nearly ripped the man's nose off his face.

    The barrister was flat on his belly when the farmer's third kick to a kidney nearly caused him to give up.

    The lawyer summoned every bit of his dark heart, vengeful will and managed to get to his feet and said, "Okay, you old coot now it's my turn."

    The old farmer smiled and said, "Naw, I give up. You can have the duck."

    A man receives a phone call from his doctor.
    The doctor says, "I have some good news and some bad news."
    The man says, "OK, give me the good news first."
    The doctor says, "The good news is, you have 24 hours to live."
    The man replies, "Oh no! If that's the good news, then what's the bad news?"
    The doctor says, "The bad news is, I forgot to call you yesterday."

    Terrorists in training boarded a flight out of London . One took a window seat and the other sat next to him in the middle seat.

    Just before take-off, a Royal Marine sat down in the aisle seat.

    After take-off the Marine kicked his shoes off, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Terrorist in the window seat said 'I need to get up and get a Coke.'

    'Don't get up,' said the Marine 'I'm in the aisle seat, 'I'll get it for you.'

    As soon as he left one of the Terrorists picked up the Marine's shoe and spat in it. When the Marine returned with the Coke, the other Terrorist said, 'That looks good. I'd really like one too.' Again, the Marine obligingly went to fetch it.

    While he was gone the other Terrorist picked up the Marine's other shoe and spat in it. When the Marine returned they all sat back and enjoyed the flight.

    As the plane was landing the Marine slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened. He leaned over and asked his still seated neighbors, 'Why does it have to be this way?'

    'How long must this go on? This fighting between our nations? This hatred? This animosity? This spitting in shoes and peeing in Cokes?'

    Yesterday, I got sent home from work for not wearing a mask while I was using an angle grinder.


    Today, I got sent home for looking like Ronald Reagan.


    I wish they would make their minds up.
