Alabama
A group of  Alabama  friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for the day.  That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering under the weight of an eight-point buck.
“Where’s Henry?” the others asked.
“Henry had a stroke of some kind.  He’s a couple of miles back up the trail,” the successful hunter replied.
“You left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?” they inquired.
“A tough call,” nodded the hunter.  “But I figured no one is going to steal Henry!”

Georgia
The owner of a golf course in  Georgia  was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He called her into his office and said, “You graduated from the  University  of  Georgia  and I need some help.  If I were to give you $20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?”
The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, “Everything but my earrings.”

Louisiana
A senior at  Louisiana  was overheard saying … “When the end of the world comes, I hope to be in  Louisiana .” When asked why, he replied, “I’d rather be in  Louisiana  because everything happens in  Louisiana  20 years later than in the rest of the civilized world.”

Mississippi
The young man from  Mississippi  came running into the store and said to his buddy, “Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking lot!”
Bubba replied, “Did you see who it was?”
The young man answered, “I couldn’t tell, but I got the license number.”

North Carolina
A man in  North Carolina  had a flat tire, pulled off on the side of the road, and proceeded to put a bouquet of flowers in front of the car and one behind it.  Then he got back in the car to wait. A passerby studied the scene as he drove by and was so curious he turned around and went back.  He asked the fellow what the problem was.
The man replied, “I have a flat tire.”
The passerby asked, “But what’s with the flowers?”
The man responded, “When you break down they tell you to put flares in the front and flares in the back.  I never did understand it neither.”

Tennessee
A  Tennessee   State  trooper pulled over a pickup on I-65.  The trooper asked, “Got any ID?” The driver replied, “Bout whut?”

Texas
The Sheriff pulled up next to the guy unloading garbage out of his pick-up into the ditch.
The Sheriff asked, “Why are you dumping garbage in the ditch?  Don’t you see that sign right over your head.”
“Yep”, he replied.  “That’s why I dumpin it here, cause it says:  ‘Fine For Dumping Garbage’.”

You can say what you want about the South,  but you never hear of anyone retiring and moving North.

Our friend John sent this recently. Thanks, John!

You have to be old enough to remember Abbott and Costello to fully appreciate this. For those of us who sometimes get flustered by our computers (and who doesn’t?), please read on…

If Bud Abbott and Lou Costello were alive today, their infamous sketch, ‘Who’s on First?’ might have turned out something like this:

COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT

ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?

COSTELLO: Thanks I’m setting up an office in my den and I’m thinking about buying a computer.

ABBOTT: Mac?

COSTELLO: No, the name’s Lou.

ABBOTT: Your computer?

COSTELLO: I don’t own a computer. I want to buy one.

ABBOTT: Mac?

COSTELLO: I told you, my name’s Lou.

ABBOTT: What about Windows?

COSTELLO: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?

ABBOTT: Do you want a computer with Windows?

COSTELLO: I don’t know… What will I see when I look at the windows?

ABBOTT: Wallpaper.

COSTELLO: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.

ABBOTT: Software for Windows?

COSTELLO: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What do you have?

ABBOTT: Office.

COSTELLO: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?

ABBOTT: I just did.

COSTELLO: You just did what?

ABBOTT: Recommend something.

COSTELLO: You recommended something?

ABBOTT: Yes..

COSTELLO: For my office?

ABBOTT: Yes.

COSTELLO: OK, what did you recommend for my office?

ABBOTT: Office.

COSTELLO: Yes, for my office!

ABBOTT: I recommend Office with Windows..

COSTELLO: I already have an office with windows! OK, let’s just say I’m sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?

ABBOTT: Word.

COSTELLO: What word?

ABBOTT: Word in Office.

COSTELLO: The only word in office is office.

ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows.

COSTELLO: Which word in office for windows?

ABBOTT: The Word you get when you click the blue ‘W’.

COSTELLO: I’m going to click your blue ‘w’ if you don’t start with some straight answers. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with?

ABBOTT: Money.

COSTELLO: That’s right. What do you have?

ABBOTT: Money.

COSTELLO: I need money to track my money?

ABBOTT: It comes bundled with your computer.

COSTELLO: What’s bundled with my computer?

ABBOTT: Money.

COSTELLO: Money comes with my computer?

ABBOTT: Yes. No extra charge.

COSTELLO: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much?

ABBOTT: One copy.

COSTELLO: Isn’t it illegal to copy money?

ABBOTT: Microsoft gave us a license to copy Money.

COSTELLO: They can give you a license to copy money?

ABBOTT: Why not? THEY OWN IT!

(A few days later)

ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?

COSTELLO: How do I turn my computer off?

ABBOTT: Click on ‘START’………….

My favorite from this list is Egg Salad. So now try this: ask or email your friends, family and especially your significant other or potential significant other(s) and find out which of the above sandwiches they most prefer. Then see how valid the descriptions are. Fun!

My brother sent this to me and I thought I would share… very cool. Thanks, Michael!

The Dentist pulls out a freezing needle to give the man a shot.
‘No way! No needles! I hate needles,’ the patient said.

The Dentist starts to hook up the laughing gas and the man objects.
‘I can’t do the gas thing. The thought of having the gas mask on is suffocating me!’

The Dentist then asks the patient if he has any objection to taking a pill.
‘No objection,’ the patient says.’I'm fine with pills.’

The Dentist then returns and says, ‘Here’s a Viagra tablet.’
The patient says, ‘Wow! I didn’t know Viagra worked as a painkiller!!!’

‘It doesn’t,’ said the Dentist, ‘but it will give you something to hold onto when I pull your tooth.’

My dad sent this a while back, hehehehe!!!

15 More Images You Won’t Believe Aren’t Photoshopped

Beware, as this site can take you away into the place where time just flies by!!

Today I was looking for some articles on safe driving (for a client) and came across a site which has a collection of funny signs. I’m a sucker for these kinds of things, and some of them are really funny!!

Road Trip America: Funny Signs

We see some strange signs around here, too. When we first moved here, there were signs for “Frash Produce” and “Poduce Ahead” so now we always joke (with a southern accent) about stopping for Frash Poduce!

Today I was cleaning out my links and looked at Oddee.com and found a very funny page on their site. Warning: the first picture is pretty graphic… if you can’t joke about getting hit by a bus tomorrow, you might want to skip it.

Oddee.com – 15 Most Creative Bus Ads

Boy, that site makes me laugh!!! How about you?

My belly hurts from laughing over this one. So cute!!!
