    Re: Joke of the Day

    Father O'Connor keeps chickens in a coup behind the church. One Sunday he goes to feed them and finds the cock's gone missing.
    He knows there's been cock fighting in the village so at mass he questions the congregation.
    "Has anybody got a cock"?
    All the men stand up.
    "No, No. I meant, has anybody seen a cock"?
    All the women stand up.
    "No, No. That's not what I meant either. Has anybody seen my cock"?
    16 alter boys, two priests and a goat stood up...
    A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
    Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

          Only a farm kid would see it this way!



          When you're from the farm, your perception is a little bit different.



          A farmer drove to a neighbor's farmhouse and knocked at the door. A boy, about 9, opened the door. "Is your dad or mom home?" said the farmer.



          "No, they went to town."



          "How about your brother, Howard? Is he here?"



          "No, he went with Mom and Dad."



          The farmer stood there for a few minutes, shifting from one foot to the other, mumbling to himself, when the young boy says, "I know where all the tools are if you want to borrow one, or I can give Dad a message."



          "Well," said the farmer uncomfortably. "No, I really want to talk to your Dad, about your brother Howard getting my daughter Suzy pregnant".



          The boy thought for a moment, then says, "You'll have to talk to my Dad about that. I know he charges $500 for the bulls and $150 for the pigs, but I have no idea how much he charges for Howard.

                The Green Thing

                Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment.

                The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this
                green thing back in my earlier days."

                The clerk responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations."

                She was right -- our generation didn't have the
                green thing in its day.

                Back then, we
                returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled. But we didn't have the green thing back in our day.

                We
                walked up stairs, because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks. But she was right. We didn't have the green thing in our day.

                Back then, we
                washed the baby's diapers because we didn't have the throw-away kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy gobbling machine burning up 220 volts -- wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing. But that young lady is right; we didn't have the green thing back in our day.

                Back then, we had
                one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana . In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran onhuman power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity. But she's right; we didn't have the green thing back then.

                We
                drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull. But we didn't have the green thing back then.

                Back then, people took
                the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school orwalked instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service. We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest pizza joint.

                But isn't it sad the current generation
                laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the green thing back then?

                Please forward this on to another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from a smart-alecky young person.

                  So right brother! So right! Makes perfect sense to me. Btw I'm 45 and we're anklets compared to my father's generation.

                              Driving home from the pub earlier, we were pulled over by a Police Car.

                              "Everything alright officer?" I asked.

                              "Not really sir," he replied, "Your car was weaving across the road in a very uncontrolled manner."

                              "What do you expect?" I said, "I've had eight pints."

                              He laughed, "In that case, I fully understand why you let your wife drive home."
                              A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
                              Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

                                Ahkmed the Arab came to the United States from the Middle East , and he was only here a few months when he became very ill. He went to doctor after doctor, but none of them could help him.

                                Finally, he went to an Arab doctor who said,
                                'Take dees bocket, go into de odder room, poop in de bocket, pee on de poop, and den put your head down over de bocket and breathe in de fumes for ten minutes.'

                                Ahkmed took the bucket, went into the other room, pooped in the bucket, peed on the poop, bent over and breathed in the fumes for ten minutes.

                                Coming back to the doctor he said,
                                'It worked. I feel terrific! What was wrong with me?'

                                The doctor said .... You were homesick
                                A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
                                Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
