Not particularly
amusing, but this happened. Several years ago, Bud & I were at a
friend's apartment, enjoying dinner & conversation with him, his wife &
their bobcat. Yes, I said bobcat!!
I don't remember what we were discussing, but I was shocked when our friend
used the "N" word. I said that I didn't appreciate that kind of
language. He told me that it was his home
& that he could use any kind of language he wanted inside those walls.
I thought about it & decided he was right, but I didn't have to
listen. I stepped out onto the front porch & asked him to tell me
when he was through.

How much should you spend on beer?
CRITICAL THINKING AT ITS BEST.
Woman: Do you drink beer?
Man: Yes.
Woman: How many beers a day?
Man: Usually about 3.
Woman: How much do you pay per
beer?
Man: $5.00, which includes
a tip.
Woman: And how long have you
been drinking?
Man: About 20 years, I suppose.
Woman: So a beer costs $5 and
you have 3 beers a day which puts your spending each month
at $450. In one year, it would be approximately$5,400 …correct?
Man: Correct.
Woman: If in 1 year you spend
$5,400, not accounting for inflation, the past 20 years puts your
spending at $108,000, correct?
Man: Correct.
Woman: Do you know that if you
didn’t drink so much beer, that money could have been put in a step-up
interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 20 years, you could have now bought a Ferrari?
Man: Do you drink beer?
Woman: No.
Man: Where’s your Ferrari?

How to handle the police:
One night a police officer was staking out a particularly rowdy bar for
possible DUI violations. At closing time, he saw a fellow tumble out of the
bar, trip on the curb, and try his keys in five different cars before he found
his. Then he sat in the front seat fumbling around with his keys for several
minutes. Everyone else left the bar and drove off. Finally he started his
engine and began to pull away. The police officer was waiting for him. He
stopped the driver, read him his rights and administered the Breathalyzer test.
The results showed a reading of 0.0. The puzzled officer demanded to know how
that could be. The driver replied, "Tonight I'm the designated decoy.”

Personal hygiene:
There's an old sea story about a ship's Captain who inspected
his sailors, and afterward told the first mate that his men smelled
bad. The Captain suggested perhaps it would make everyone happier if the sailors would
change their underwear occasionally. The first mate responded, "Aye, aye sir, I'll see
to it immediately!" He went straight to the sailor’s berth deck and announced,
"The Captain thinks you guys smell bad and wants you to change your
underwear."
He continued, "Pittman, you change with Jones. McCarthy, you change with Jenkins. Brown, you change with Schultz..."

Top ten reasons why the bible would be different if it were written by today's college students:
10. The Last Supper would have been eaten the next morning, cold.
9. The Ten Commandments would be actually only five, double-spaced, and written in large font.
8. Promiscuous females would be dated, not stoned.
7. Forbidden fruit would still have been eaten; anything is better than college food.
6. Paul's letter to the Romans becomes Paul's e-mail to abuse@romans.gov.
5. Reason Cain killed Abel: they were rooming together and the dishes weren't getting done.
4. The time and place where the end of the world occurs would be lecture halls in October.
3. Mary would have made a complaint to the sexual harassment committee concerning God’s unwanted advances.
2. The reason why Moses and his followers wandered through the desert for forty years; they didn't want to ask directions and look like freshmen.
1. Instead of God creating the world in six days and resting on the seventh, He would have put it off until the night before it was due and then pulled an all-nighter.
