The one about 3 Preachers...

Three preachers were on their way to a conference with their wive's when they had a car accident and they were all killed. They found themselves at the Pearly Gates and St Peter greeted them warmly.

Well, what do we have here," he said. "Three preachers and their wives? Well you must all be good people and I am sure you will all be inside enjoying yourselves in just a jiffy," he said, "but first I have to do the paperwork."

He called the first couple forward, and opened the big book. He looked down the entries with a smile on his face until he suddenly frowned.

"Oh,oh," he said, "it seems we have a problem."

"Whats the matter?" the first preacher asked, " I have always done good works, what could be wrong?"

"I know", said St Peter, " but the book also says that throughout your life you always lusted for money, so much so, that you never married until you found a woman named Penny."

The preacher admitted that it was true and left in shame.

The second couple came forward and St Peter again looked at the book, and again his smile turned to a frown. "It says here that  throughout your life you always lusted after  alcohol, so much so that you never married until you found a woman named Sherry," he said. The preacher admitted it was true and left in shame.

Before St Peter could ask him to come forward, the 3rd preacher turned to his wife and said "there's no point in hanging around here, Fanny"

One Night Recently...

After a long night of intercourse, the young guy rolled over, pulled out a cigarette from his jeans and searched for his lighter.

Unable to find it, he asked the girl if she had one at hand.

"There might be some matches in the top drawer," she replied.

He opened the drawer of the bedside table and found a box of matches sitting neatly on top of a framed picture of another man.

Naturally, the guy began to worry.

"Is this your husband?" he inquired nervously.

"No, silly," she replied, snuggling up to him.

"Your boyfriend then?" he asked.

"No, not at all," she said, nibbling away at his ear.

"Well, who is he then?" demanded the bewildered guy.

Calmly, the girl replied, "That's me before the operation."

  • You can talk about commitment, and the chocolate doesn't get worried.
  • Chocolate doesn't complain when you need a bit in the middle of the night.
  • Chocolate never gets a headache, nor is it ever too tired.
  • You don't have to wait for everyone to go to sleep before having chocolate at your parents place.
  • You can have chocolate on your desk at work without being frightened that the boss will catch you.
  • If you get red blotchy marks after chocolate it's only pimples.
  • You don't have to shower before or after chocolate.
  • Your spouse won't mind you finding a new place to get chocolate.
  • Even when its soft, chocolate is just as enjoyable.
  • The wrapping looks just as good after chocolate, as before chocolate.
  • You can have chocolate with someone without them going to sleep as soon as they are finished.

Computer jokes...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kim Beazley, Bill Gates, and Bob Brown were in an aeroplane that crashed.

When they arrived in heaven they found God sitting on his throne.

God talks to Bob Brown first. "Bob, what do you believe in?"

Bob replies, "I beleive that dams are evil, that pollution is killing us, and that we need to sign the Kyoto Accord."

God smiles and says, "I reckon you might be right. Come and sit at my left side."

God then addresses Kim Beazley. "Kim, what do you believe in?"

Kim replies, "Well, I beleive in a fair go. I think people should be able to make their own choices about things, but that government needs to facilitate a fairer sharing of resources."

God thinks about that and says, "Okay, that sounds good. Come and sit at my right."

God then addresses Bill Gates. "Bill, what do you believe in?"

Bill Gates said, "I believe you're sitting in my chair."

The first man was enthusiastic. He said "It's the best drug I have ever taken. It's like the Fountain of Youth! It makes you feel 50 years younger."

"Can you get it over the counter?" asked his friend.

"Thats quite likely, especially if you took two pills," was the reply.

Following a major Viagra shortage in Sydney, Qantas agreed to fly a special shipment in from 'The 'States'. Unfortunately the secret flight was reported in the papers and the shipment was hijacked shortly after leaving the terminal at Sydney Airport.

Police have issued warnings that they are searching for a gang of hardened criminals.

Drinking Jokes

A school science teacher decided to illustrate the evils of alcohol to a grade 6 class. On her desk she put a glass of water, a glass of vodka, and two worms. "Everyone watch the worms closely," she said as she put one of the worms into the water. The worm swam about, as worms do in water. She put the second worm into the glass of vodka, and it writhed painfully, and sank to the bottom, dead as dead could be. "What can we learn from this?" She asked the wide-eyed class. Young Will from Woolloomooloo piped up "Drink alcohol and you won't get worms!"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A guy was drinking in the Goldfish Bar, and in walks a bloke carrying a tiny piano, he puts it on the bar and orders a drink. Curious the first bloke asks him what the toy piano is for, so the guy with the piano lifts his hat and a 12 inch man is revealed dressed in concert top hat and suit. He looks every bit a famous concert pianist, and to prove it he climbs down the blokes shoulder, down his arm, leaps onto the bar and starts to play wonderful music on the piano.

The barmaid comes over amazed, "Where did he come from?" she asks. "I have a genie in a bottle" the man says, and to prove it He pulls it out from his pocket. Naturally she begs to have a wish, and so she wishes for a million bucks.

Instantly the Goldfish Bar is filled with a million quacking ducks. The barmaid screams "what happened? I asked for a miilion bucks."

The bloke leans over to her and says "Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you, the genie is a little hard of hearing, and gets things wrong sometimes, after all, you don't think I would have wished for a 12 inch pianist, do you?"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A pig walks into the Empire and orders a beer and asks if he can use the toilet and the bartender says "sure, it's just over there."

A second pig walks into the Empire and orders a beer and asks if he can use the toilet and the bartender says "sure, it's just over there."

Then a third pig walks in and orders a beer. "I suppose you want to use the toilet?" asks the barman. "No," said the pig, "I'm the little pig that goes wee, wee, wee, all the way home."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back at the Vegas a man is at the bar drinking beers on his own. First he looks inside his suit coat and then orders a beer, drinks it, looks in his coat and orders a beer. He does this five times in a row until the barmaid gets curious and asks him why the strange behaviour. "It's my way of knowing when to go home," he says.

"How can it do that?" she asked. "Well," he said, "I have a photo of my mother-in-law in the pocket, and when she starts looking good, then it's definitely time to go home."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back at the Empire a bloke was drinking, but he realised that he needed to go home when everytime he tried to stand up, he would fall flat on his face. So he crawled out the back door trying to sober up. After a while he tried to stand up again, but sure enough, he fell flat on his face. So knowing he couldn't go back into the bar in that condition, he started to crawl home. Every few metres he would try to stand up, but each time he would fall flat on his face.

He managed to get to his apartment building, into the lift, all the way to his door. Again he tried to stand up, and again he fell flat on his face. So he crawled to his bed, where one last time he tried to stand up, but this time he just fell onto the bed and immediately fell asleep.

The next morning his wife started giving him a hard time, "You were out drinking last night," she said, "and whats more you were making a fool of yourself again," she said.

"How would you know that?" he asked.

"The Empire rang first thing," she said, "you left your wheelchair at the bar again."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Men And Women

A married couple were arguing over some trivial matter. Sounding frustrated the man said to his wife "I can't understand how you can be so beautiful and yet so stupid at the same time."

"Hah!" said the wife, "thats easy to explain. God's the cause. You see when he created me He made me beautiful so you would want to be with me, and He made me stupid so I would want to be with you."

---------------------------------------------------------

Another couple had taken a drive in the country, but still manged to have an argument while they drove. As they passed a farm the man noticed several farm animals, cows, sheep and goats.

"Relatives of yours?" he asked.

"Yes," she said, "in-laws."

It's All In The Name

Who is Jack Schitt you ask? It seems many people mistakenly believe that I am not acquainted with the family. Just the other day in a disagreement someone said to me "you don't know Jack Schitt". The person seemed agitated when I tried to explain he is my father. Right at the beginning you see, I was a little Schitt.

Jack, my father was the only son of Awe Schitt and O Schitt.

Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate was my grandfather, he married O Schitt, who owned  Kneedeep N. Schitt, Inc.  one of his biggest customers

In turn, my father Jack Schitt married my mother, Noe Schitt, and they produced six children: Holie Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, the twins Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt, and me. My name is Fulla.

Against our parents' wishes, Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout.

After being married 15 years, my parents divorced. My mother later married my step father Bob Sherlock, and because us kids were living with them, she wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt-Sherlock.

Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt and they have a son, Chicken Schitt.

My sisters Holie and Giva Schitt were inseparable throughout our childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony.

The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens wedding.

They had 3 children, Dawge, Byrde, and Horse.

Bull Schitt, the prodigal son left home to tour the world, and recently returned from Italy with his new bride, Pisa Schitt.

So now when someone says, "you don't know Jack Schitt", you can correct them. You now have the full story, and after all, if this story isn't true my name wouldn't be Fulla Schitt.
