    Paul McCartney once said that he only writes music about things that are real.

    Really Paul? And would you say you do this eight days a week?

    I don't think the singing frogs were very realistic either.

    Reilly joined the British Parachute Regiment and was on his first drop. Falling from the plane he pulled his ripcord but his chute never deployed. He pulled the handle for his reserve chute but discovered that was useless as well. Falling towards earth he noticed something approaching him at high speed. It was Murphy the plumber.
    "Do you know anything about parachutes?" cried Reilly.
    "No" shouts Murphy. "Do you know anything about gas cookers?"

    On a recent trip to the United States , Tony Blair, Ex. Labour Prime Minister of the UK and now U.N. Middle East Peace Envoy, addressed a major gathering of Native American Indians.

    He spoke for almost two hours on his success in bringing about a lasting peace settlement amongst the warring nations of the Middle East, likening it to the way that the U.S. Government found a suitable agreement with the North American tribes.

    At the conclusion of his speech, the crowd presented him with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name - Walking Eagle.

    A very chuffed Tony then departed in his motorcade, waving to the crowds..

    A news reporter later asked one of the Indians how they came to select the new name given to Tony Blair. They explained that Walking Eagle is the name given to a bird so full of shít that it can no longer fly.

    A man with one testicle finally goes to the doctor. He's ashamed of telling the doctor(male) about his condition directly so he whispers in the doctor's ear, "the sum of mine and your testicles is 3". The doctor looks at the man astonished and asks "You don't have any?".

    Another version:
    Man with 3 testicles goes to the doctor.
    He's ashamed of telling the doctor(male) about his condition directly so he whispers in the doctor's ear, "the sum of mine and your testicles is 5"
    The doctor looks at the man astonished and asks "You don't have any?"

    Another version:
    A man with 5000000 testicles goes to the doctor.
    He is ashamed to tell the doctor(male) so he leans in and whispers to the doctor "the sum of your testicles and mine is 5000002"
    The doctor replies "So you have none?"


    Another version:
    A man with n testicles goes to the doctor.
    He is ashamed to tell the doctor(male) about his condition so he leans in and whispers in the doctor's ear "∑testiclesi = testiclesn + testiclesn+2"
    The doctor replies "Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a mathematician"

    A man with 3 balls was after a heavy days punting in the bookies. After losing his whole weeks wages, he dug deep into his pocket to find a last, solitary crumpled up tenner.

    He walked over to the bookie and asked, what odds would you give me that me and you have 5 balls between us......

    The bookie thought for a second, and said 10-1.

    Ok says the punter. You go first.

    The bookie pulls down his jeans and boxers, says to the man, here's my 1 ball, show me your 4.

    A woman in her eighties made the evening news because she was getting married for the fourth time. The following day she was being interviewed by a local TV station, and the commentator asked about what it felt to be married again at that age and would she share part of her previous experiences, since it seem quite unique the fact that her new husband was a ‘funeral director.’ After a short time to think, a smile came to her face and she proudly explained that she had first married a banker when she was in her twenties, in her forties she married a circus ring master, and in her sixties she married a pastor and now in her eighties, a funeral director. The amazed commentator asked her why she had married men with such diverse carriers. With a smile on her face she explained, ‘I married one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go.’

    Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end.

    He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.
    Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled him out. When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.
    When she went to tell Edna the news she said, 'Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged, since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of the person you love.... I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.
    The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead.'
    Edna replied, 'He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry.
    How soon can I go home?'

    A farmer stopped by the local mechanics shop to have his truck fixed. They couldn't do it while he waited, so he said he didn't live far and would just walk home.

    On the way home he stopped at the hardware store and bought a bucket and a gallon of paint. He then stopped by the feed store and picked up a couple of chickens and a goose. However, struggling outside the store he now had a problem - how to carry
    all of his purchases home.

    While he was scratching his head
    , a little old lady approached him and told him she was lost. She asked, 'Can you tell me how to get to1603 Mockingbird Lane ?'

    The farmer said, 'Well, as a matter of fact, my farm is very close to that house. I would walk you there but I can't carry this lot.'

    The old lady suggested, 'Why don't you put the can of paint in the bucket. Carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm and carry the goose in your other hand?''

    ’Why thank you very much,' he said and proceeded to walk the old girl home. On the way he says 'Let's take my short cut and go down this alley. We'll be there in no time.'

    The little old lady looked him over cautiously then said, 'I am a lonely widow without a husband to defend me. How do I know when we get in the alley you won't hold me up against the wall, pull up my skirt, and have your way with me?'

    The farmer said, 'Holy smokes lady! I'm carrying a bucket, a gallon of paint, two chickens, and a goose. How in the world could I possibly hold you up against the wall and do that?'

    The old lady replied, 'Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket, put the paint on top of the bucket, and I'll hold the chickens.’
