You Gotta Laugh<br />
By: Bill Caserta / Bill’s Blurbs<br />
The Anniversary Present: Bob<br />
forgot his wedding anniversary. His<br />
wife was mad.<br />
She told him, “Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in<br />
the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds and it better<br />
be there!”<br />
The next morning when his wife woke up, she looked out<br />
the window to find a box gift wrapped in the middle of the<br />
driveway. She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.<br />
One final note: Bob has been missing since Friday!<br />
French Computer: A language teacher was explaining<br />
to her class that in French, nouns unlike their English<br />
counterparts, are grammatically designated as masculine<br />
or feminine. “House” in French, is feminine - “la maison”,<br />
while “pencil” in French is masculine - “le crayon.”’<br />
One puzzled student asked, “What gender is a computer?”<br />
The teacher thought it would be a good exercise to have the<br />
students decide what they thought the gender should be.<br />
So she split the class into two groups appropriately enough,<br />
by gender and asked them to decide whether “computer”<br />
should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Both groups were<br />
required to give four reasons for their recommendation.<br />
The men’s group decided that computer should definitely be<br />
of the feminine gender (“la computer”), because:<br />
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic.<br />
2. The native language they use to communicate with other<br />
computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.<br />
3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term<br />
memory for possible later review.<br />
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you constantly<br />
find yourself spending more money on accessories for it.<br />
The women’s group, however, concluded that computers<br />
should be masculine (“le computer”) because:<br />
1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them<br />
on.<br />
2. They have a lot of data, but still can’t think for themselves.<br />
3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but most of<br />
the time, they ARE the problem.<br />
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had<br />
waited a little longer you could have gotten a better model!<br />
Survey Says: There is a new survey about women and how<br />
they feel about their asses. The results were pretty interesting:<br />
30% of women think their ass is too fat; 10% of women think<br />
their ass is too skinny and 60% of women say they don’t care.<br />
They still love him, he’s a good man and they wouldn’t trade<br />
him for the world!<br />

. It is better to have loved and<br />
lost…much better!<br />

when he stops wanting to go out with girls and wants to stay<br />
home with them.<br />
3. Irving: “It’s our 10th anniversary and you look the<br />
same as you did when I married you.” Sarah: “I should. I’m<br />
wearing the same dress!”<br />
4. Wife: “Before we got married, you told me you were well<br />
off.” Husband: “I was and I didn’t know it!”<br />
5. Reporter: “You play beautifully. What made you take up<br />
the piano?” Musician: “My glass of beer kept falling off the<br />
violin.”<br />
6. Shirley: “What a beautiful coat. It must have cost a<br />
fortune.” Sylvia: “No, it only cost one kiss.” Shirley: “One<br />
that you gave your husband?” Sylvia: “No. One he gave to our<br />
maid!”<br />
7. Times sure have changed. When did you ever see a liquor<br />
store with a “Back to School” sale?<br />
8. Whether or not a girl can be had for a song depends on a<br />
man’s pitch!<br />
9. The wildest thing happened in New York last month.<br />
Some guy held up a Sperm Bank!<br />
10. Remember: No naked man ever lost his keys.<br />

afterwards that’s tough.<br />
