Not exactly a joke, just a bit of humour from the media. "A soccer-mad vicar was so desperate not to miss his beloved team play that he wore his football shirt underneath his cassock as he performed a wedding ceremony so he could rush straight to Manchester United's Old Trafford ground." Inga :smile:

For all of you out there who've had to deal with an irate customer, this one is for you. An award should go to the United Airlines gate agent in Denver for being smart and funny, and making her point, when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as baggage.

A crowded United flight was canceled. A single agent was rebooking a long line of inconvenienced travelers. Suddenly an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk. He slapped his ticket down on the counter and said, "I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be FIRST CLASS."

The agent replied, "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these folks first, and I'm sure we'll be able to work something out."

The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear, "Do you have any idea who I am?"

Without hesitating, the gate agent smiled and grabbed her public address microphone. "May I have your attention please?" she began, her voice bellowing throughout the terminal. "We

have a passenger here at the gate WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can

help him find his identity, please come to the gate."

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the United agent, gritted his teeth and swore, "F*CK YOU!"

Without flinching, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry, sir, but you'll have to stand in line for that, too!"

In case you were wondering this explains it all. All babies start out with the same number of raw cells, which over nine months, develop into a complete female baby. The problem occurs when cells are instructed by the little chromosomes to make a male baby instead. Because there are only so many cells to go around, the cell necessary to develop a male's reproductive organs have to come from cells already assigned elsewhere in the female Recent tests have shown that these cells are removed from the communications center of the brain, migrate lower in the body and develop into male sexual organs. If you visualize a normal brain to be similar to a full deck of cards, this means that males are born a few cards short, so to speak, and some of their cards are in their shorts. This difference between the male and female brain manifests itself in various ways: Little girls will tend to play things like house or learn to read. Little boys, however, will tend to do things like placing a bucket over their heads and running into walls. This basic cognitive difference continues to grow until puberty, when the hormones kick into action and the trouble really begins. After puberty, not only the size of the male and female brains differ, but the center of thought also differs. Women think with their heads. Male thoughts often originate lower in their bodies where their ex-brain cells reside. Of course, the size of this problem varies from man to man. In some men only a small number of brain cells migrate and they are left with nearly full mental capacity but they tend to be rather dull,sexually speaking. Such men are known in medical terms as "Engineers." Other men suffer larger brain cell relocation. These men are medically referred to as "Fighter Pilots." A small number of men suffer massive brain cell migration to their groins. These men are usually referred to as "Mr. President or Mr. Congressman"

A stewardess approached a gentleman who was voicing his complains rather loudly. "Yes, Sir?" "I want to complain about this airline. Every time I fly, I get the same seat, I can't see the in-flight movie, and there are no window blinds so I can't sleep." "Captain, shut up and land the plane."

This is a platform free shoe zone!

Here's a bit of irony that may well interest you Firefox. "An English pub landlord has taken out an insurance policy against ghosts following fears that the resident poltergeist could hurt customers. The landlord of the Royal Falcon Hotel in Suffolk decided he needed the cover after watching the ghost shoot glasses along the bar one night." Looks like they'll have to take to the bottles or the tap directly in this place. Inga :smile:

A little old couple walked slowly into McDonalds one cold winter evening. They looked out of place amid the young families and young couples eating there that night. Some of the customers looked admiringly at them. You could tell what the admirers were thinking. "Look, there is a couple who has been through a lot together, probably for 60 years or more!" The little old man walked right up to the cash register, placed his order with no hesitation and then paid for their meal. The couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off of the tray. There was one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The little old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. Then he carefully counted out the French fries, divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them. As the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger the crowd began to get restless. Again you could tell what they were thinking. "That poor old couple. All they can afford is one meal for the two of them." As the man began to eat his French fries one young man stood and came over to the old couples' table. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple to eat. The old man replied that they were just fine. They were used to sharing everything. Then the crowd noticed that the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She just sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink. Again the young man came over and begged them to let him buy them something to eat. This time the lady explained that no, they were used to sharing everything together. As the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly with a napkin the young man could stand it no longer. Again he came over to their table and offered to buy some food. After being politely refused again he finally asked a question of the little old lady. "Ma'am, why aren't you eating. You said that you share everything. What is it that you are waiting for?" She answered... "The teeth"

In the Birmingham Sunday Mercury (7th Jan 2001): WORKER DEAD AT DESK FOR 5 DAYS Bosses of a publishing firm are trying to work out why no one noticed that one of their employees had been sitting dead at is desk for FIVE DAYS before anyone asked if he was feeling okay. George Turklebaum, 51, who had been employed as a proof-reader at a New York firm for 30 years, had a heart attack in the open-plan office he shared with 23 other workers. He quietly passed away on Monday, but nobody noticed until Saturday morning when an office cleaner asked why he was still working during the weekend. His boss Elliot Wachiaski said: "George was always the first guy in each morning and the last to leave at night, so no one found it unusual that he was in the same position all that time and didn't say anything. "He was always absorbed in his work and kept much to himself." A post mortem examination revealed that he had been dead for five days after suffering a coronary. Ironically, George was proofreading manuscripts of medical textbooks when he died. You may want to give your co-workers a nudge occasionally. And the MORAL OF THE STORY : "Don't work too hard. Nobody notices anyway." Inga :smile:

How to get to the Melbourne airport from Croydon an outer Melbourne suburb. PS I don't live there anymore thankfully.

This information is extracted from from the following url: http://www.skybus.com.au/toairport.html

Trip to the airport

from your starting point at 5:51am (5:51!? Apparently I am walking to Heathmont from Croydon! At least they gave me plenty of time to do this...) to Melbourne Airport by 9:45am on Thursday 6/6/2002

A

1.The trip planner could not find a full route because some transports have not yet been incorporated into the planner. Please make your way to using other means.(These instructions are very informational)

2.Catch Belgrave train departing 7:56am from stop 29, Heathmont to stop 6, Richmond arriving 8:30am.(Something wrong with the Lilydale line??)

B

1.Walk to stop 7E, Punt Rd from Richmond (distance = 100m)

2.Catch tram 70 departing 8:41am from stop 7E, Punt Rd to stop 5, Swanston St arriving 8:51am.

(Let's get off this perfectly good train which is going to Spencer St anyway, and take a tram)

C

1.Walk to Flinders Street from Swanston St (distance = 150m)

2.Catch Glen Waverley train departing 8:58am from stop 1, Flinders Street to stop 2, Spencer Street arriving 8:49am. (Good God, what? Why didn't I get on a tram that GOES to Spencer St?)

D

1.Catch bus Skybus departing 9:00am from Spencer Street Railway Station to Melbourne Airport arriving 9:30am. (Unless the Skybus driver got his instructions from this website, in which case we'll drive to Adelaide, get a plane to Canberra, a bus to Lismore and hitch-hike the rest of the way to Brisbane)

2.The results of this trip planner should be used as a rough guide only.(No shit Sherlock!) We take no responsibility for flights missed as the result of following this advice. (We also deny any responsibility for emotional disturbance, chronic disorientation and total bewilderment caused by following these instructions)

I'd expect simular services would exist in other parts of the globe. (ie a ferry service to the airport with no sence of direction!)

Inga :smile:

Here's a classic from the media: "H'Angus the Monkey has been elected mayor of Hartlepool, England, in a victory for the mascot of the town's football team. Stuart Drummond, alias H'Angus the Monkey, used the slogan "free bananas for schoolchildren" to win the position." Inga :smile:

Much to the Gov's embarassment, this wasn't a joke. The guy did actually get elected as an independant candidate.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/uk_politics/newsid_1965000/1965569.stm

However, it's not quite as silly as it sounds. There was a semi-sensible person behind the monkey suit who used it to successfully promote his campaign as an independant candidate.

In a murder trial, the defense attorney was cross-examining a pathologist. Attorney: Before you signed the death certificate, had you taken the pulse? Coroner: No. Attorney: Did you listen to the heart? Coroner: No. Attorney: Did you check for breathing? Coroner: No. Attorney: So, when you signed the death certificate, you weren't sure the man was dead, were you? Coroner: Well, let me put it this way. The man's brain was sitting in a jar on my desk. But I guess it's possible he could be out there practicing law somewhere.

A guy goes over to his buddy's house, rings the bell, but his buddy's wife answers. "Hi is Tony home?" "No he went to the store." "Well, you mind if I wait?" "No come in." They sit down and the friend says "You know Nora, you have the greatest breasts I have ever seen. I'd give you a hundred bucks if I could just see one." Nora thinks about this for a second and figures what the hell,.... It's worth one hundred bucks. She opens her robe and shows one. He promptly thanks her and throws 100 bucks on the table. They sit there a while longer and Chris says "They are so beautiful. I must see the both of them. I'll give you another 100 bucks if I could just see the both of them together." Nora thinks about this and says what the hell, opens her robe and gives Chris a nice long look. She feels bad for him, so she pushes her breasts into his face for a moment and she let's him have a few squeezes. Chris thanks her and throws another 100 bucks on the table then says he can't wait any longer for Tony and he leaves. A while later Tony arrives home and his wife says "You know your weird friend Chris came over." Tony thinks about this for a second and asks, "Well,... did he drop off the 200 bucks he owes me...?"

A dustman is going along a street picking up the wheely bins and emptying them into his dustcart lorry. He gets to one house where the bin hasn't been left out so he has a quick look for it, goes round the back but still can't see it so he knocks on the door. There's no answer so he knocks again.

Eventually a Japanese bloke answers..."Harro", says the Japanese bloke .

"Alright mate, where's ya bin?" asks the dustman

"I bin on toilet" replies the Japanese bloke, looking perplexed.

Realising the Japanese fellow has misunderstood, the binman smiles and says

"No mate, where's ya dust bin?"

"I dust bin on toilet. I told you" says the Japanese man.

"Mate" says the dustman... "you're misunderstanding me... Where's your Wheely Bin?"

"OK" "OK" , says the Jap, "I wheely bin having a rank!"
