“New Years parades have a lot in common with Santa Claus. Nobody is awake<br />

to see either of them.” – Melanie White<br />

Father O’Malley<br />

answers the phone:<br />

“Hello, is this Father<br />

O'Malley”<br />

“It is!'”<br />

“This is the IRS. Can<br />

you help us”<br />

“I’ll do my best, said<br />

Father O’Malley.”<br />

“Do you know a Ted<br />

Houlihan” asks the<br />

IRS.<br />

“I do!” responds Father<br />

O’Malley.<br />

“Is he a member of<br />

your congregation”<br />

“He is!”<br />

“Did he donate<br />

$10,000 to the<br />

church” asked the<br />

IRS agent.<br />

“He will,” the Father<br />

responds.<br />

Zippy<br />

Submitted by Jimbo<br />

An elderly man went to<br />

his doctor and<br />

said,”'Doc, I think I'm<br />

getting senile. Several<br />

times lately, I have forgotten<br />

to zip up.”<br />

“That's not senility,”<br />

replied the doctor. “Senility<br />

is when you forget<br />

to zip down.”<br />

Salesmanship<br />

Submitted by Jimmy Benson<br />

The kids filed into class<br />

Monday morning.<br />

They were all very excited.<br />

Their weekend<br />

assignment was to sell<br />

something, then give a<br />

talk on salesmanship.<br />

Little Sally led off. “I<br />

sold Girl Scout cookies<br />

and I made $30,” she<br />

said proudly, “My sales<br />

approach was to appeal<br />

to the customer's<br />

civil spirit and I credit<br />

that approach for my<br />

obvious success.”<br />

“Very good,” said the<br />

teacher.<br />

Little Debbie was next.<br />

“I sold magazines,” she<br />

said, “I explained to<br />

everyone that the magazines<br />

would keep<br />

them up to date on current<br />

affairs, I sold<br />

heaps and I made<br />

$45.”<br />

“Very good, Debbie,”<br />

said the teacher.<br />

Eventually, it was Little<br />

Jimbo's turn. The<br />

teacher held her<br />

breath. Little Jimbo<br />

walked to the front of<br />

the classroom and<br />

dumped a box full of<br />

cash on the teacher's<br />

desk. “$2,467,” he<br />

said.<br />

“$2,467!” cried the<br />

teacher. “What in the<br />

world were you selling”<br />

“Toothbrushes,” said<br />

Little Jimbo.<br />

“Toothbrushes,”<br />

echoed the teacher,<br />

“How could you possibly<br />

sell enough tooth<br />

brushes to make that<br />

much money”<br />

“I found the busiest<br />

corner in town", said<br />

Little Jimbo, “I set up a<br />

Chip & Dip stand and I<br />

gave everybody who<br />

walked by a free sample.<br />

They all said the<br />

same thing, ‘“Hey, this<br />

tastes like dog poop!’”<br />

Then I would say, “It is<br />

dog poop, you wanna<br />

buy a toothbrush”<br />

“I decided to use a<br />

politicians method of<br />

giving you some crap,<br />

dressing it up so it<br />

looks good, telling you<br />

it's free, and then making<br />

you pay to get the<br />

bad taste out of your<br />

mouth.”<br />

Little Jimbo got five<br />

stars for his assignment.<br />

Bless his heart.<br />

"It's not because I'm<br />

lonely, and it's not because<br />

it's New Year's<br />

Eve. I came here<br />

tonight because when<br />

you realize you want to<br />

spend the rest of your<br />

life with somebody, you<br />

want the rest of your<br />

life to start as soon as<br />

possible.''<br />

Bull Talk<br />

Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />

2014 was the first year in nine years that Pixar did not release a new film.<br />

Three bulls heard that<br />

the rancher was going<br />

to bring yet another<br />

bull onto the ranch,<br />

and the prospect<br />

raised a discussion<br />

among them.<br />

Since 1953<br />

Mon-Sun: 9am - 10pm<br />

LuiggisPizzeria.com<br />

First Bull: "Boys, we all<br />

know I've been here 5<br />

years. Once we settled<br />

our differences, we<br />

agreed on which 100 of<br />

the cows would be<br />

mine. Now, I don't<br />

know where this newcomer<br />

is going to get<br />

his cows, but I aint'<br />

givin' him any of mine."<br />

Second Bull: "That<br />

pretty much says it for<br />

me, too. I've been here<br />

3 years and have<br />

earned my right to the<br />

50 cows we've agreed<br />

are mine. I'll fight 'im till<br />

I run him off or kill 'im,<br />

but I'm keeping all my<br />

cows."<br />

Third Bull: "I've only<br />

been here a year, and<br />

so far you guys have<br />

only let me have 10<br />

cows to take care of. I<br />

may not be as big as<br />

you fellows (yet) but I<br />

am young and virile, so<br />

I simply must keep all<br />

my cows."<br />

They no sooner finished<br />

their big talk<br />

when an eighteenwheeler<br />

pulls up in the<br />

middle of the pasture<br />

with only one animal in<br />

it: the biggest baddest<br />

bull these guys had<br />

ever seen! At 4,700<br />

The One That Got Away<br />

Can you find seven number words hidden in<br />

this paragraph Underline the number words in<br />

the phrase at the bottom.<br />

Example: the word eight could be hidden inside<br />

one word, height, or between two words, like<br />

this... We will ride in a sleigh tonight.<br />

Ready... go!<br />

Where has the fat worm gone He was wriggling away from<br />

my reel even before I had the hook on it! If I’ve lost him, I’ll be<br />

sorry. This evening I came prepared with reel, line and bait hoping<br />

to catch plenty of fish. It’s not often that a worm of ours gets away!<br />

Answer is on<br />

page 34. But<br />

at least give<br />

it a shot first!<br />

Tim to Jimbo: You are so old, when you were a kid rainbows were black and white.


I'm actually feeling pretty okay about not accomplishing anything this year.<br />

was doing all my cows<br />

justice, anyway. I think<br />

I can spare a few for<br />

our new friend."<br />

plenty of cows to take<br />

care of if I just stay on<br />

the opposite end of the<br />

pasture from him. I'm<br />

certainly not looking for<br />

an argument."<br />

They look over at their<br />

young friend, the 3rd<br />

bull, and find him pawing<br />

the dirt, shaking his<br />

horns, and snorting.<br />

real quick. Let him<br />

have some of your<br />

cows and live to tell<br />

about it."<br />

Young Love<br />

Submitted by Jimbo<br />

A Scottish lad and lass<br />

were sitting together on<br />

a heathery hill in the<br />

Highlands.<br />

They had been silent<br />

for a while, when the<br />

lass said, "A penny for<br />

your thoughts."<br />

The lad was a bit<br />

abashed, but he finally<br />

said, "Well, I was thinking<br />

how nice it would<br />

be if ye'd give me a<br />

wee bit of a kiss."<br />

So she did so.<br />

But he again lapsed<br />

into a pensive mood<br />

which lasted long<br />

enough for the lass to<br />

ask him, "What are ye<br />

thinking now"<br />

To which the lad grumbled,<br />

"Well, I was hoping<br />

ye hadn't forgotten<br />

the penny!"<br />

In the unlikely event<br />

that Hollywood made a<br />

movie based on their<br />

lives, they wondered<br />

what stars would play<br />

them.<br />

"Who would you pick to<br />

portray you" she<br />

asked him.<br />

He thought about it for<br />

a minute, then answered,<br />

"Dennis<br />

Quaid."<br />

"In that case," she<br />

said, "I’ll play myself."<br />
