    The Lie Clock

    A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of
    St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him.

    He asked, 'What are all those clocks?'

    St. Peter answered, 'Those are Lie-Clocks.
    Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock.

    Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move.'
    'Oh,' said the man, 'whose clock is that?'

    'That's Mother Teresa's.. The hands have never moved, indicating
    that she never told a lie.'

    'Incredible,' said the man. 'And whose clock is that one?'

    St. Peter responded, 'That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life.'

    'Where's President OBamas clock?' asked the man.

    Obama’s clock is in Jesus' office.

    He's using it as a ceiling fan.

        The Kid from Brooklyn

        This is hilarious. I think it's been out for awhile, but this guy is unhappy about the price Starbucks charges for coffee. If the F word offends anyone, you might want to skip this one. I thought some here might enjoy.

        Best,

          Vinnie >>we love ya !

          Italian Tomato Garden:




          An old Italian lived alone in New Jersey. He wanted to plant his annual tomato garden, but it was very difficult work as the ground was hard.

          His only son, Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament:




          Dear Vincent,
          I am feeling pretty sad, because it looks like I won't be able to plant my tomato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. I know if you were here my troubles would be over.. I know you would be happy to dig the plot for me, like in the old days.
          Love, Papa

          A few days later he received a letter from his son.





          Dear Pop,
          Don't dig up that garden. That's where the bodies are buried.
          Love,
          Vinnie


          At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left.


          That same day the old man received another letter from his son.




          Dear Pop,
          Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances.

          Love you,
          Vinnie

            Diet? Excercise?

            I love this Doctor

            Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
            A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.

            Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
            A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.

            Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
            A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit.. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!

            Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
            A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.

            Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
            A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!

            Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
            A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!! ..... Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?

            Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
            A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.

            Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
            A: Are you crazy? HELLO Cocoa beans ! Another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!

            Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
            A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.

            Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?
            A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!

            Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.

            And remember:
            'Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO HOO, What a Ride'

              Midlife Crisis!

              Older Women Are So Reasonable

              AFTER BEING MARRIED FOR 44 YEARS, I TOOK A CAREFUL LOOK AT MY WIFE ONE DAY AND SAID, '44 YEARS AGO WE HAD A CHEAP APARTMENT, A CHEAP CAR, SLEPT ON A SOFA BED AND WATCHED A 10-INCH BLACK AND WHITE TV, BUT I GOT TO SLEEP EVERY NIGHT WITH A HOT 25-YEAR-OLD GIRL".

              NOW I HAVE A$1,500,000.00 HOME, A $45,000.00 CAR, NICE BIG BED AND PLASMA SCREEN TV, BUT I'M SLEEPING WITH A 65-YEAR-OLD WOMAN. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU'RE NOT HOLDING UP YOUR SIDE OF THINGS.'

              MY WIFE IS A VERY REASONABLE WOMAN. SHE TOLD ME TO GO OUT AND FIND A HOT 25-YEAR-OLD GIRL AND SHE WOULD MAKE SURE THAT I WOULD ONCE AGAIN BE LIVING IN A CHEAP APARTMENT, DRIVING A CHEAP CAR, SLEEPING ON A SOFA BED AND WATCHING A 10-INCH BLACK AND WHITE TV.

              AREN'T OLDER WOMEN GREAT? THEY REALLY KNOW HOW TO SOLVE YOUR MID-LIFE CRISES.

                The Dept Of Defense briefed the president this morning. They told President Obama that 2 Brazilian soldiers were killed in Iraq .

                To everyone's surprise, all the color drained from Obama's face.

                Then he collapsed onto his desk, head in his hands, visibly shaken, almost in tears.





                Finally, he composed himself and asked, 'Just how many is a brazilian?'





                This is not surprising, since he obviously has no understanding of billion or trillion either.

                    When I read this, I thought the "he has no understanding of billion or trillion" a bit lame and asked myself if this couldn't have been a Bush joke. Apparently it was: A funny Bush joke. (I think the second comment has the better version.)

                    The old ones are the best, I suppose.

                      Pete,
                      Two are 14 and one is 15. Where did they get those voices? Unbelievable.

                        How the Stimulus Package Works

                        It is the month of August, a resort town sits next to the shores of a lake. It is raining, and the little town looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.

                        Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town.

                        He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 dollar bill on the reception counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one.

                        The hotel proprietor takes the 100 dollar bill and runs to pay his debt to the butcher.

                        The Butcher takes the 100 dollar bill, and runs to pay his debt to the pig raiser.

                        The pig raiser takes the 100 dollar bill, and runs to pay his debt to the supplier of his feed and fuel.

                        The supplier of feed and fuel takes the 100 dollar bill and runs to pay his debt to the town's prostitute that in these hard times, gave her "services" on credit.

                        The hooker runs to the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 dollar bill to the hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that she rented when she brought her clients there.

                        The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 dollar bill back on the counter so that the rich tourist will not suspect anything.

                        At that moment, the rich tourist comes down after inspecting the rooms, and takes his 100 dollar bill, after saying that he did not like any of the rooms, and leaves town.

                        No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now without debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism .

                        And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the United States Government is doing business today.

                          It's hard to be nostalgic when you can't remember anything.

                                That was back in the day, when you could actually support a family on one income....Of course you didn't have a bill for cable, internet, cell phone, etc....
