A man in his 40's bought a new BMW and was out on the Pacific Highway
for a nice evening drive. The top down, breeze blowing through what was
left of his hair, and he decided to open her up.

As the needle went over 140 km/h, he suddenly saw flashing red and blue
lights behind him.

"There's no way they can catch my BMW," he thought to himself and
opened
her up further.

The needle hit 160, 180.... then the reality of the situation hit him.

"What am I doing?" he thought and pulled over.

The cop came up to him, took his license without a word, and examined
it
and the car.

"It's been a long day, this is the end of my shift, and it's Friday. I
don't feel like more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for
your
driving that I haven't heard before, you can go."

The guy thinks for a second and says, "Last week my wife ran off with a
cop. I was afraid you were trying to give her back."

"Have a nice weekend," said the officer.

An employee comes into her manager’s office to take a day off from work. The manager replies, So you want a day off. Let's take a look at what you are asking for. There are 365 days per year available for work. There are 52 weeks per year in which you already have 2 days off per week, leaving 261 days available for work. Since you spend 16 hours each day away from work, you have used up 170 days, leaving only 91 days available. You spend 30 minutes each day on coffee break, which counts for 23 days each year, leaving only 68 days available. With a 1-hour lunch each day, you used up another 46 days, leaving only 22 days available for work. You normally spend 2 days per year on sick leave. This leaves you only 20 days per year available for work. We are off 5 holidays per year, so your available working time is down to 15 days. We generously give 14 days vacation per year which leaves only 1 day available for work and I'll be darned if you are going to take that day off!

Getting into heaven
You can't fool the kids in Sunday school; they are way too smart...

"If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale, and gave all my money to the church, would I get into heaven?" I asked the children in my Sunday school class.
"NO!" all the children answered.

"If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything neat and tidy, would I get into heaven?"
Again the answer was, "NO!"

"Well," I continued, "then how can I get to heaven?"

A five-year-old boy shouted, "You gotta be dead!"

Scientists are complaining that the new Dinosaur movie shows dinosaurs with lemurs, who didn't evolve for another million years. They're afraid the movie will give kids a mistaken impression. What about the fact that the dinosaurs are singing and dancing?

A woman accompanied her husband to the doctor's office. After
his checkup, the doctor called the wife into his office alone.

He said, "Your husband is suffering from a very severe stress
disorder. If you don't do the following, your husband will
surely die. Each morning, fix him a healthy breakfast. Be
pleasant at all times. For lunch make him a nutritious meal.
For dinner prepare an especially nice meal for him. Don't
burden him with chores or discuss your problems with him - it
will only make his stress worse. No nagging. And most impor-
tantly, you have to increase your frequency of intimacy. If
you can do this for the next 10 months to a year, I think your
husband will regain his health completely."

On the way home, the husband asked his wife. "What did the
doctor say?"

"He said you're going to die," she replied.

Eternal Truths

Once over the hill, you pick up speed.

If it weren't for STRESS I'd have no energy at all.

Whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

I know God won't give me more than I can handle. I just wish He didn't trust me so much.

If the shoe fits...buy it in every color.

If you look like your passport picture, you probably need the trip.

Men are from earth. Women are from earth. Deal with it.

A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand.

Middle age is when broadness of the mind and narrowness of the waist change places.

Junk is something you've kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.

Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends.

Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.

A flight attendant was stationed at the departure gate to check
tickets. A man approached, she extended her hand for the ticket,
he opened his trench coat and flashed her. Without missing a beat
she said,"Sir, I need to see your ticket, not your stub."

**************************************************
A guy is reading his paper when his wife walks up behind him and smacks him on the back of the head with a frying pan.
He asks, "What was that for?"
She says, "I found a piece of paper in your pocket with 'Betty Sue' written on it."
He says, "Jeez, honey, remember last week when I went to the track? 'Betty Sue' was the name of the horse I went there to bet on." She shrugs and walks away. Three days later he's reading his paper when she walks up behind him and smacks him on the back of the head again with the frying pan.
He asks, "What was that for?"
She answers, "Your horse called."
