A Joke for Today

[andrews]

A Kiwi biker was riding his Harley beside a Sydney beach when suddenly the sky clouded above his head and in a booming voice,
The Lord said.
'Because you have TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish.'

The biker pulled over and said, 'Build a bridge to New Zealand so I can ride over anytime I want to visit my relatives.'

The Lord said; 'Your request is materialistic and personal, think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking, the supports required reaching the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete and steel it would take!

It will nearly exhaust so many natural resources. I can do it, but it's hard to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of something that could possibly help mankind.'

The biker thought hard about it for a long time. Finally, he said,
'Lord, I wish that I and all men could understand our wives.

I want to know how she really feels inside, what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she rejects my amorous advances, why she cries when I give my honest answer to her question about a new dress, what she means when she says 'nothing's wrong', and how I can make her truly happy'.

The Lord replied;
'About that bridge, do you want two lanes or four?

THE IRISH PRIEST

An Irish priest was transferred to Texas .. Father O'Malley rose from his bed one morning. It was a fine spring day in his new Texas mission parish.

He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside.

He then noticed there was a jackass lying dead in the middle of his front lawn.

He promptly called the local police station......

The conversation went like this:

''Good morning. This is Sergeant Jones. How might I help you?''

''And the best of the day te yerself.. This is Father O'Malley at St. Ann 's Catholic Church. There's a jackass lying dead in me front lawn "

Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a smirk, ''Well now Father, it was always my impression that you people took care of the last rites!''

There was dead silence on the line for a long moment..........................................

Father O'Malley then replied:

''Aye, 'tis certainly true; but we are also obliged to notify the next of kin.''

When you have an 'I Hate My Job day' (Even if you're retired, you sometimes have those days)

Try this out:

On your way home (from work), stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and p*rchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson.

Be very sure you get this brand.

When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed.

Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favourite chair.
Open the package and remove the thermometer.
Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.

...and here's where the fun part begins...

Take out the literature from the box and read it, carefully.
You will notice that in small print there is a statement:

"Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized."

Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times,' I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson.'

HAVE A NICE DAY; AND REMEMBER, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE ARSE THAN YOURS!
..Remember, if you haven't got a smile on your face and laughter in your heart....
Then you are just an old sour fart [ironic]

Maybe you should go and work for Johnson & Johnson!!!!!
