Here's another oldie.

 

A man was walking down the street when he saw a beggar sitting in a doorway, begging for money for a meal.

 

The man said, "If I give you $20, will you spend it on alcohol?"

 

The beggar replied, "No, I gave up drinking 18 years ago."

 

The man said, "If I give you $25, will you spend it on fishing?"

 

The beggar replied, "No, I sold my boat and fishing gear 15 years ago."

 

The man said, "OK, come home with me and my wife will cook you a nice homecooked meal, and I'll still give you the $25."

 

The beggar asked, "Won't your wife be angry?"

 

The man replied, "Maybe, but I just want her to see what a man looks like when he gives up drinking and fishing."

Paddy was visiting Mick's house where they were playing cards and enjoying a few drinks. When Paddy went to leave, they noticed it was pouring with rain.

 

Mick said to Paddy, "Stay here for the night, I'll go and make up a bed." Then he headed upstairs.

 

When he came back down, Paddy was standing there soaked to the skin.

 

"What happened?" asked Mick.

 

Paddy replied, "I went home for my pyjamas."

A guy is being interviewed for a job.

 

Interviewer:   Do you have any allergies?

 

Applicant:     Caffeine.

 

Interviewer:   Have you ever worked in public service?

 

Applicant:     I was in the military, I did two tours in Iraq.

 

Interviewer:  Very good. That gives you a lot of points. Do you have any disabilities?

 

Applicant:    A bomb went off close to me and I lost both testicles.

 

Interviewer (winces):   Wow! That gives you enough points for me to hire you straight away. Our hours at 8: am to 400 pm. You can start at 10:00 am tomorrow and every other day.

 

Applicant:    How come 10:00 am? I don't want any special privileges.  

 

Interviewer.   Remember, this is a council job. We spend the first two hours standing around drinking coffee and scratching our balls. There is no need for you to be here for that.

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.
The whole aim of modern politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
And it makes it even harder for the average ape to believe that he has descended from man.

When I met an attractive 58 year old woman at a bar last night I thought she was very sexy looking so I also thought to myself if she has a daughter she wouldn't look too bad either. We had a few drinks together.Then she asked me if I'd ever had a thing called a Ploughman's Double? "What's that?" I asked. "It's a mother and daughter threesome," she replied. I was really thinking this could be my lucky night so we drank a little more. Then we went back to her place. When we got in the front door I couldn't contain my excitement and then she shouts up stairs, "Mother, are you still awake?"

I dug this one up from back in 2004. You can change the names but the message still applies today.....

 

"President George Bush was in the Oval Office wondering which country to upset next, when his telephone rang...

"Hallo, President Bush" a heavily accented voice said. This is Archie, up 'ere at the Harp Seal Pub in Badger's Cove, Newfoundland, Canada ey? I am
callin' to tells ya dat weare officially declaring war on you ey!"

"Well Archie," George replied, "This is indeed important news! How big is your army?"

"Right now," said Archie, after a moments calculation "there is myself,
me cousin Harold, me next-door-neighbor Mick, and the whole dart team from
the pub. That makes eight!"

George paused. "I must tell you Archie, that I have one million men in my army waiting to move on my command."

"Holy jeez," said Archie. "I'll have ta call ya back!"

Sure enough, the next day, Archie called again. "Mr. Bush, the war is still on! We have managed to acquire some infantry equipment!"

"And what equipment would that be Archie?", George asked.

"Well sir, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and Harry's farm tractor."

President Bush sighed. "I must tell you Archie, that I have 16,000 tanks and 14,000 armoured personnel carriers. Also I've increased my army to one and a half million since we last spoke."

"Lard T'underin' Jaysus, bye", said Archie, "I'll be getting back to ya."

Sure enough, Archie rang again the next day. "President Bush, the war is still on! We have managed to git ourselves airborne! We up an' modified Harrigan's ultra-light wit a couple of shotguns in the cockpit, and four byes from the Legion have joined us as well!"

George was silent for a minute then cleared his throat. "I must tell you Archie that I have 10,000 bombers and 20,000 fighter planes. My military complex is surrounded by laser-guided, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I've increased my army to TWO MILLION!"

"Jeysus, Mary and Joseph," said Archie,"I'll have ta call youse back."

Sure enough, Archie called again the next day. "President Bush! I am sorry to have to tell you dat we have had to call off dis 'ere war."

"I'm sorry to hear that" said George. "Why the sudden change of heart?"

"Well, sir," said Archie, "we've all sat ourselves down and had a long chat over a bunch of pints, and come to realize dat dere's no way we can feed two million prisoners."

CANADIAN CONFIDENCE CANNOT BE SHAKEN!

I saw a meme today of classic bridges around the world.

 

San Fancisco  -  Golden Gate Bridge.

London            -  Tower Bridge.

Sydney            -  Harbour Bridge.

Melbourne      -  Montague Street Bridge - with a truck jammed under it.

 

The Montague Street bridge in Melbourne strikes again : r/IdiotsInCars

 

Another Melbourne Classic is the York St underpass under the railway line that becomes a swimming pool when it rains.

 

Victoria weather: Month's worth of rain in an hour as flash flooding ...
