"Daddy, where did I come from?" the seven-year-old asked.
It was a moment for which her parents had carefully prepared. They took her into the living room, got out the encyclopedia and several other books, and explained all they thought she should know about sexual attraction, affection,
love, and reproductions. Then they both sat back and smiled contentedly.
"Does that answer your question?" her father asked.
"Not really," the little girl said. "Marcia said she came from Detroit. I want to know where I came from.

The world's first fully computerized airliner was ready for its maiden flight without pilots or crew. The plane taxied to the loading area automatically, its doors opened automatically, the steps came out automatically. The passengers boarded the plane and took their seats.
The steps retreated automatically, the doors closed, and the airplane taxied toward the runway.
"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen," a voice intoned. "Welcome to the debut of the world's first fully computerized airliner. Everything on this aircraft is run electronically. Just sit back and relax. Nothing can go wrong ... Nothing can go wrong...nothing can go wrong...."
NOTE: OH MY GOSH! HAHAHAH THAT'S HORRIBLE!

"It's just a cold," the doctor said. "There is no cure, and
you'll just have to live with it until it goes away."
"But Doctor," the patient whined, "it's making me so
miserable."
The doctor rolled his eyes toward the ceiling. Then he
said, "Look, go home and take a hot bath. Then put a bathing
suit on and run around the block three or four times."
"What!" the patient exclaimed. "I'll get pneumonia!"
"We have a cure for pneumonia," the doctor said.
A man piloting a hot-air balloon discovers he has wandered
far off course and is hopelessly lost. He descends to a lower
altitude and locates a man down on the ground. He lowers the
balloon to within hearing distance and shouts, "Excuse me,
can you tell me where I am?"
The man below says: "Yes, you're in a hot-air balloon, about
thirty feet above this field."
"You must work in information technology," says the
balloonist.
"Yes, I do," replies the man. "And how did you know that?"
"Well," says the balloonist, "what you told me is technically
correct, but of no use to anyone."
The man below says, "You must work in management."
"I do," replies the balloonist, "how did you know?"
"Well," says the man, "you don't know where you are, or where
you're going, but you expect my immediate help. You're in
the same position you were before we met, but now it's my
fault!"
Children were called upon a classroom to make sentences
with words chosen by the teacher. The teacher smiled when
Jack, a slow learner, raised his hand to participate during
the challenge of making a sentence with the words "Defeat,"
"Defense," "Deduct," and "Detail."
Jack stood thinking for a while, all eyes focused on
him while his classmates awaited his reply. Smiling, he then
proudly shouted out, "Defeat of deduct went over defense
before detail."
Get it? I didn't. Took me a while... Sorry if I am offending your intelligence, but here's what Jack meant:

It seems the US Federal Aviation Administration has a unique
device for testing the strength of windshields on airplanes. The
device is a gun that launches a dead chicken at a plane's
windshield at approximately the speed the plane flies.
The theory is that if the windshield doesn't crack from the
carcass impact, it'll survive a real collision with a bird during
flight. It seems the British were very interested in this and
wanted to test a windshield on a brand new, speedy locomotive
they were developing.
They borrowed the FAA's chicken launcher, loaded the chicken and
fired. The ballistic chicken shattered the windshield, went
through the engineer's chair, broke an instrument panel and
embedded itself in the back wall of the engine cab. The British
were stunned and asked the FAA to recheck the test to see if
everything was done correctly.
The FAA reviewed the test thoroughly and had one recommendation:
"Use a thawed chicken."
A burglar breaks into an isolated country house after watching the whole family depart for a night out on the town. As he creeps across the darkened living room he hears a voice saying: "I can see you..... and Jesus can see you". The burglar shines his penlight torch around the room, but sees nothing. He takes another step, and he hears it again: "I can see you..... and Jesus can see you". This time he realizes the voice comes from above, and when he shines his torch around he sees a parrot sitting on top of a cupboard. It looks him in the eye and says: "I can see you..... and Jesus can see you".
The burglar laughs and says "You're just a parrot".
The parrot looks him in the eye and says "I'm a parrot and my name is Ebenezer".
The burglar laughs again, and says "Ebenezer is a pretty silly name for a parrot".
The parrot looks him in the eye, waits until he has stopped laughing, and says: "I agree completely...... and Jesus is a pretty silly name for a rotweiler".

A devoted wife had spent her lifetime taking care of her
husband. Now he had been slipping in and out of a coma for
several months, yet she stayed by his bedside every single
day.
When he came to senses, he motioned for her to come near him.
As she sat by him, he said, "You know what? You have been
with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were
there to support me. When my business failed, you were there.
When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house,
you gave me support. When my health started failing, you were
still by my side. You know what?"
"What dear?" she asks gently.
"I think you bring me bad luck."
A honeymooning couple is in the Watergate Hotel in
Washington.
The bride is concerned about the room being bugged.
The groom says, "I'll look for a bug."
He looks behind the drapes, behind the pictures, under the
rug. "A-HA!" Under the rug was a disc with four screws. He
gets his Swiss army knife, unscrews the screws, and throws
them and the disc out the window.
The next morning, the hotel manager asks the newlyweds, "How
was your room? How was the service? How was your stay at the
Watergate Hotel?"
The groom says, "Why are you asking me all of these
questions?"
The hotel manager says, "Well, the room under you complained
of the chandelier falling on them!"

All evening long four cardplayers had been pestered by a
busybody who commented on everyone's hand and style of play.
When he went out of the room for a moment, they hit on a plan
to silence him.
"Let's make up a game no one ever heard of," one of them
said. "Then he'll have to shut up."
The busybody returned. The dealer tore two cards in half and
gave them to the man on his left. He tore the corners off
three cards and spread them out in front of the man opposite
him. Then he tore five cards in quarters, gave 15 pieces to
the man on his right and kept five himself.
"I have a mingle," he said. "I'll bet a dollar."
"I have a snazzle," the next man announced. "I'll raise you a
dollar."
The third man folded without betting, and the fourth, after
much deliberation, said, "I've got a farfle. I'll raise you
two dollars."
The busybody shook his head vehemently. "You're crazy," he
said. " You're never going to beat a mingle and a snazzle
with a lousy farfle!"
A minister would up the services one morning by saying, "next
Sunday I am going to preach on the subject of liars. And in
this connection, as a preparation for my discourse, I would
like you all to read the seventeenth chapter of Mark."
On the following Sunday, the preacher rose to begin, and
said, "Now, then, all of you who have done as I requested and
read the seventeenth chapter of Mark, please raise your
hands."
Nearly every hand in the congregation went up.
Then said the preacher, "You are the people I want to talk
to. There is no seventeenth chapter of Mark."
A young college student had stayed up all night studying for
his zoology test the next day. As he entered the classroom,
he saw ten stands with ten birds over each bird and only the
legs showing.
He sat right in the front row because he wanted to do the
best job possible. The professor announced that the test
would be to look at each set of bird legs and give the common
name, habitat, genus, species, and identifying
characteristic.
The student looked at each set of bird legs. They all looked
the same to him. He began to get upset. He had stayed up all
night studying, and now he had to identify birds by their
legs. The more he thought about it, the madder he got.
Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore.
He went to the professor's desk and said "What a stupid test!
How could anyone tell the difference between birds by looking
at their legs?" With that the student threw his test on the
professor's desk and walked out the door.
The professor was surprised. The class was so big that he
didn't know every student's name, so as the student reached
the door, the professor called out "One moment, son, what's
your name?"
The enraged student pulled up his pant legs and said "You
guess buddy! You guess!"
A cheerful truck driver pulled up at a roadside cafe in the
middle of the night for a dinner stop. Halfway through his
meal, three wild-looking motorcyclists roared up--bearded,
leather-jacketed, filthy.
For no reason at all, the selected the truck driver as a
target. One poured pepper over his head, another stole his
apple pie, the third deliberately tipped his coffee over. The
truck driver never said one word, just stood up, paid hia
check, and left.
"That truck driver sure ain't much of a fighter," sneered one
of the bikers.
The girl behind the counter, peering out into the night,
added, "He doesn't seem to be much of a truck driver, either.
He just ran his truck right over three motorcycles."

Peter looked them over and ordered, "All men who were
henpecked on earth, please step to the left; all those who
were bosses in their own homes, step to the right."
The line quickly formed on the left. Only one man stepped to
the right.
Peter looked at the frail little man standing by himself and
inquired, "What makes you think you belong on that side?"
Without hesitation, the meek little man explained, "Because
this is where my wife told me to stand."

Three engineers and three accountants are traveling by train
to a conference. At the station, the three accountants each
buy tickets and watch as the three engineers buy only a
single ticket. "How are three people going to travel on only
one ticket?" asks an accountant. "Watch and you'll see,"
answers an engineer.
They all board the train. The accountants take their
respective seats but all Three engineers cram into a restroom
and close the door behind them. Shortly after the train has
departed, the conductor comes around collecting tickets.
He knocks on the restroom door and says, "Ticket, please."
The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a
ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.
The accountants saw this and agreed it was quite a clever
idea. So after the conference, the accountants decide to copy
the engineers on the return trip and save some money.
When they get to the station, they buy a single ticket for
the return trip. To their astonishment, the engineers buy no
tickets at all.
"How are you going to travel without a ticket?" says one
perplexed accountant. "Watch and you'll see," answers an
engineer.
When they board the train the three accountants cram into a
restroom and the three engineers cram into another one
nearby. The train departs. Shortly afterward, one of the
engineers leaves his restroom and walks over to the restroom
where the accountants are hiding. He knocks on the door and
says, "ticket please."

asking what time the bar opens.
"It opens at noon" answers the clerk.

sounding even drunker.
"What time does the bar open?" he asks.
"Same time as before... Noon." replies the clerk.
Another hour passes and he calls again, plastered "Whatjoo

wait, I can have room service send something up to you."
"No... I don't wanna git in... Ah wanna git OUT!!!"
The principal had a problem with some girls who were starting
to use lipstick. When applying it in the bathroom they would
blot their lips on the mirrors, leaving lip prints.
Before it got out of hand, he thought of a way to stop it.
One day he gathered together all the girls who wore lipstick.
He then took them into the bathroom and lectured about how
hard it was to clean the lipstick off the mirrors. The
principle then asked the custodian, who was present, to
demonstrate.
The custodian took a long handled brush, dipped it into the
toilet and vigorously rubbed the lipstick off the mirror.
From that day forward, the mirrors stayed lipstick free.
A former friend of mine was married to a great gal;
unfortunately, he had to put up with his wife's mother who
was a very cranky and spiteful person. In the morning
when my buddy got up to go to work, his mother-in-law would
sneak around a hallway corner and hiss at him, "If you
don't treat my daughter right when I die I'll dig up from
the grave and haunt you!"
When the poor guy would stop in for lunch, his mother-in-
law would blurt out while hiding behind a drape, "If you
don't treat my daughter right when I die, I'll dig up from
the grave and haunt you. Alas, in the evening while having
a well-deserved cocktail, my friend's mother-in-law would
pop up from behind the bar and say, "If you don't treat my
daughter right when I die, I'll dig up from the grave and
haunt you."
Well, I happened to bump into my buddy a month ago and
while having a beer I asked him how his mother-in-law was
feeling. He said, she isn't feeling anything; she died two
months ago!" I quickly asked him if he was worried about
her ominous threat? He said, "Hell, no! I buried her face
down; let her dig; I don't care!"
An incompetent counterfeiter spent all day making his funny
money. At the end of the day he realizes he spent all his
time making $15 bills.
He figures that the only way he's going to get anything from
this batch of money, is to find a place where the people
aren't too bright and change his phony money for real cash.
He travels to a small town in West Virginia and walks into a
small Mom and Pop grocery store. He goes to the old man
behind the counter and asks him, "Do you have change for a
$15 bill?"
The old man replies, "I sure do...How would you like that? An
8 and a 7 or two 6s and a three?"

perfume.

want something called 'Perhaps'; I want something called 'You
Can Bet Your Sweet Bippy on It'!"

Three engineering students were gathered together discussing
the possible designers of the human body.
One said, "It was a mechanical engineer. Just look at all the
joints."
Another said, "No, it was an electrical engineer. The nervous
system has many thousands of electrical connections."
The last said, "Actually, it was a civil engineer. Who else
would run a toxic waste pipeline through a recreational

It's wise to remember how easily email -- this wonderful
technology -- can be misused, sometimes unintentionally, with
serious consequences.
Consider the case of the Illinois man who left the snow-
filled streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida. His wife
was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the
next day. When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his
wife a quick email.
Unfortunately, when typing her address, he missed one letter,
and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher's
wife whose husband had passed away only the day before. When
the grieving widow checked her email, she took one look at
the monitor, let out a piercing scream, and fell to the floor
in a dead faint.
At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this
note on the screen:
Dearest Wife,
Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your arrival
tomorrow.
P.S. Sure is hot down here.
"Evangelists say Halloween is the devil's holiday. What a
lame-ass devil! Sitting down in the depths of hell, going,
"I've got control of the major corporations, churning out
weapons and toxic waste, but how can I get candy? Let me
think--I'll get the children of the world to dress up as
hobos and Power Rangers--and then I'll have all the bite-size
Three Musketeers I need! I am Satan!"

A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day. "In English," he said, "A double negative forms a positive. In some languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative."
A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."
"I was walking along the beach with your new girlfriend the
other day, and the wind blew her hair in her face."
"Oh?"
"Yes, then the wind blew her hair in my face."
"Yes, so what?"
"Well, then the wind blew her hair in the ocean."
A woman was worried whether or not her dead husband made it
to heaven, so she decided to try to contact his spirit by
having a seance.
Sure enough, after the usual mumbo-jumbo of calling to the
spirits, her husband's voice was heard answering, "Hello
Margaret, this is meeee..."
"Fred," she answered. I just have to know if you're happy
there in the afterlife. What's it like there?"
"Ooooooh, it's much more beautiful here than I ever
imagined," Fred answered. "The sky is bluer, the air is
cleaner, and the pastures are much more lush and green than I
ever expected. And the only thing we do, all day long, are
eat and sleep, eat and sleep, over and over."
"Thank God, you made it to heaven," his wife cried.
"Heaven?" he answered. "What heaven? I'm a buffalo in
Montana."
"Mr. Clark, I'm afraid I have bad news," the doctor told his
anxious patient. "You only have six months to live."
The man sat in stunned silence for the next several minutes.
Regaining his composure, he apologetically told his physician
that he had no medical insurance. "I can't possibly pay you
in that time."
"Okay," the doctor said, "let's make it nine months."
A cowboy rode into town and stopped at the saloon for a
drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of
picking on newcomers. When he finished, he found his horse
had been stolen.
He comes back into the bar, handily flips his gun into the
air, catches it above his head without even looking and fires
a shot into the ceiling. "Who stole my horse?" he yelled with
surprising forcefulness.
No one answered.
"I'm gonna have another beer and if my horse ain't back
outside by the time I'm finished, I'm gonna do what I dun
back in Texas and I don't want to have to do what I dun back
in Texas!"
Some of the locals shifted restlessly.
He had another beer, walked outside, and his horse was back!
He saddled up and started to ride out of town.
The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say
partner, what happened in Texas?"
The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home!"
Picture it: rural area, Sunday morning, church is packed and
the devil decides to pay a visit.
The doors burst open, and a roiling black cloud rolls in with
the devil in its midst. People jump out of the pews and run
outdoors, screaming - all except for two. One is the Pastor,
the other is an elderly farmer.
Satan is a bit perplexed. He points to the Pastor and says,
"You! I can understand why you didn't run away, you are in
your Lord's house, you preach against me everyday and you
aren't afraid of me. But YOU (points to the farmer), why
didn't you run out scared like everyone else?"
The farmer crosses one leg over the other and drawls, "Why,
I'm surprised you don't recognize me...I've been married to
your sister for 36 years!"
Teacher: Well, at least there's one thing I can say about
your son.
Parent: What's that?
Teacher: With grades like these, he couldn't be cheating.
The manager of a large office noticed a new man one day and
told him to come into his office.
"What's your name?" he asked the new guy.
"John," the new guy replied.
The manager scowled, "Look... I don't know what kind of a
namby-pamby place you worked before, but I don't call anyone
by their first name. It breeds familiarity and that leads to
a breakdown in authority. I refer to my employees by their
last name only ... Smith, Jones, Baker ... That's all. I am
to be referred to only as Mr. Robertson. Now that we got that
straight, what is your last name?"
The new guy sighed, "Darling. My name is John Darling."
"Okay John, the next thing I want to tell you is . . . "
The doctor was examining a young model who was having
tremendous pain in her side.
"My dear, you have acute appendicitis," the doctor said.
The woman became quite angry and said, "Don't try hitting on
me doctor, I just want to be examined, not complimented."
It was one of the most gruesome cases ever to come before the
court in the small town, and if found guilty, the defendant
would spend the rest of his life behind bars.
The case had not been proceeding well for the defense. Though
there was no direct evidence, the circumstantial evidence was
quote compelling.
The only chance the lawyer had was to cast some doubt in the
minds of the jurors. His only hope was to attack the
testimony of the medical examiner.
Lawyer: "And prior to declaring the victim dead, did you
check his pulse"?
Doctor: "No."
Lawyer: "Did you perform CPR?"
Doctor: "No."
Lawyer: "Did you do anything to determine if the victim was
still alive prior to declaring him dead?"
Doctor: "No."
Lawyer: "Then, Doctor, isn't it possible that prior to
declaring the victim dead that, in fact, he may have been
alive and that it was your negligence that caused the death?"
Doctor: "Aside from the fact that his brain was in a jar, I
suppose he could have been out practicing law."
