The basketball<br />
coach storms into<br />
the university president’s<br />
office and<br />
demands an immediate<br />
raise.<br />
The president says,<br />
“But you already<br />
make more than<br />
anyone else in our<br />

The coach says angrily,<br />
“Maybe so, but<br />
you don’t know what<br />
I have to put up with<br />
every single day.<br />
Watch this...”<br />
With that the coach<br />
goes into the hall<br />
and grabs one of the<br />
basketball players<br />
who is jogging down<br />
the hallway.<br />

In Mourning<br />
Submitted by Tyla Davis<br />
A man placed some<br />
flowers on the grave<br />
of his dearly departed<br />
mother and<br />
started back toward<br />
his car.<br />
His attention was<br />
diverted to another<br />
man kneeling at<br />
a grave. The man<br />
seemed to be praying<br />
with profound<br />
intensity.<br />
The man kept<br />
repeating, “Why did<br />
you have to die?<br />
Why did you have to<br />
die?”<br />
The first man approached<br />
him and<br />
said, “Sir, I don’t<br />
wish to intrude on<br />
your private grief,<br />
but this demonstration<br />
of pain is more<br />
than I’ve ever seen<br />

A man buys a Powerball<br />
ticket and wins<br />
the lottery. He goes<br />
to claim his money<br />
and the clerk verifies<br />
his winning number.<br />
The man says, “Here<br />
is my ticket. I would<br />
like my $524 million,<br />
please.”<br />
The clerk replied,<br />
“No, sir. It doesn’t<br />
work that way. We<br />
give you the first<br />
million dollars today<br />
and then you’ll get<br />
the rest spread out<br />
over the next 19<br />
years.”<br />
The man, annoyed,<br />
says, “Oh, no. I want<br />
all my money right<br />
now! I won it, and I<br />
want it.”<br />
Again the clerk patiently<br />
explains that<br />
he would only get<br />
one million dollars<br />
that day and the<br />
rest over the next 19<br />
years.<br />
The man, furious<br />
with the clerk,<br />
screams out, “I<br />
WANT MY MONEY!<br />
If you’re not going<br />
to give me my $524<br />
million right now,<br />
then you’d better go<br />
right into that cash<br />
register and refund<br />
me the $2 that it cost<br />
me to buy the ticket<br />
in the first place!”<br />

a brown paper<br />
bag. He ran into one<br />
of his friends, who<br />
asked, “Hey! What<br />

bag?” asked his<br />
friend.<br />
The man tells his<br />
friend that he has<br />
some fish in the bag.<br />
His friend says,<br />
“Well, I’ll make you<br />
a bet. If I can guess<br />
how many fish you<br />
have in the bag,<br />
you’ll have to give<br />
me one.”<br />
The man replied, “I’ll<br />
tell you what. If you<br />
tell me how many<br />
fish I have in this<br />
bag, I’ll give you both<br />
of them.”<br />

for bear while<br />
the other stayed in<br />
camp and got things<br />
organized.<br />
Soon, the first hunter<br />
spotted a great big<br />
grizzly, and took his<br />
shot, but he only<br />
wounded the bear.<br />
Enraged, the bear<br />
charged after the<br />
hunter, who threw<br />
down his rifle and<br />
started running for<br />
the safety of the cabin.<br />
He was running<br />
as fast as he could,<br />
but the bear was<br />
gaining on him.<br />
Just as he was<br />
reaching the cabin,<br />
he stumbled and fell.<br />
The bear was so<br />
close now that he<br />
couldn’t stop. The<br />
bear tripped over<br />
the fallen hunter and<br />
tumbled through the<br />
cabin door.<br />
Jumping to his feet,<br />
the first hunter quickly<br />
closed the cabin<br />
door and yelled,“You<br />
skin this one and I’ll<br />
go find another!”<br />

Pearly<br />
Gates<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
St. Peter is checking<br />
ID’s at the Pearly<br />
Gates. The first to<br />
arrive that day was a<br />
Texan.<br />
“Tell me, what have<br />
you done in life,” says<br />
St. Peter.<br />
The Texan replied,<br />
“Well, I struck oil, so I<br />
became rich. I divided<br />
all my money among<br />
my entire family in my<br />
will. Our descendants<br />
are all set for about<br />
three generations.”<br />
St. Peter says, “That’s<br />
quite something. The<br />
next person can come<br />
on through!”<br />
The second guy in<br />
line has been listening,<br />
so he says,<br />
“I struck it big in the<br />
stock market, but I<br />
didn’t selfishly just<br />
provide for my own<br />
like that Texan. I<br />
donated five million to<br />
Make-A-Wish Maine.”<br />
“Wonderful!” says<br />
Saint Peter. “Who’s<br />
next?”<br />
My ATM offers a service where I can buy tickets for an Elvis tribute show.<br />
Press 1 for the money, 2 for the show.<br />

What’s for<br />
Dinner?<br />
Submitted by<br />
Steve Simard<br />
Jimbo thinks his<br />
wife, Sue, is losing<br />
her hearing so he<br />
calls their doctor.<br />
The doctor tells<br />
Jimbo, “We need to<br />
figure out how bad<br />
her hearing is. Using<br />
a normal tone, talk<br />
to her at various<br />
distances until she<br />
can hear you. Once<br />
we have a better<br />
idea of how far her<br />
hearing range is, we<br />
can come up with<br />
treatment options.”<br />
That night Jimbo<br />
decides to try this.<br />
He estimates he<br />
is sitting about 30<br />
feet from Sue and<br />
asks her, “What’s for<br />
dinner?”<br />
L to R: Mark Turner, Jason Carrier, and Jon Mercier<br />
He hears nothing<br />
so he moves a little<br />
closer, about 20 feet<br />
away.<br />
He asks her again,<br />
“What’s for dinner?”<br />
Still nothing.<br />
Finally, he gets right<br />
next to her and asks,<br />
“What’s for dinner?”<br />
Sue’s face got really<br />
angry and she spun<br />
around to face Jimbo,<br />
slammed down<br />
the pan, and yelled,<br />
“For the third time,<br />
chicken!”<br />
You haven’t experienced true heartbreak until you’ve been thinking<br />
about leftovers all day and come home to find that someone’s eaten them.<br />

Keith invites his<br />
friend Bob to go fishing<br />
out on his boat.<br />
Keith rows out to the<br />
center of the lake.<br />
He opens his tackle<br />
box, pulls out a stick<br />
of dynamite, lights it,<br />
and throws it<br />
overboard.<br />
Bob exclaims, “What<br />
are you doing? You<br />
can’t do that, it’s<br />
illegal.”<br />
Keith calmly lights<br />
another stick, hands<br />
it to Bob, and says,<br />
“Are you gonna talk<br />
or fish!”<br />

An 8 year old girl<br />
went to the office<br />
with her father on<br />
‘Take your daughter<br />
to work Day’.<br />
As they walked<br />
round the office she<br />
started crying and<br />
getting cranky. Her<br />
father asked what<br />
was wrong.<br />
As the staff gathered<br />
around she sobbed<br />
loudly, “Daddy,<br />
where are all the<br />
clowns you said you<br />
worked with?”<br />

Interview<br />
Submitted by Tyla Davis<br />
Stephanie was interviewing<br />
with Jimbo<br />
for her job at <strong>Uncle</strong><br />
Andy’s <strong>Digest</strong>.<br />
Reaching the end of<br />
a job interview, Jimbo<br />
asked Stephanie,<br />
“And what starting<br />
salary are you looking<br />
for?”<br />
Stephanie replied,<br />
“In the region of<br />
$125,000 a year,<br />
depending on the<br />
benefits package.”<br />
Jimbo thought about<br />
it for a second and<br />
replied, “Well, what<br />
would you say to<br />
a package of ten<br />
weeks vacation, 18<br />
paid holidays, full<br />
medical and dental,<br />
company matching<br />
retirement fund to<br />
50% of salary, and a<br />
company car leased<br />
every two years; say,<br />
a red Corvette?”<br />
Stephanie sat up<br />
straight and exclaimed,<br />
“Wow! Are<br />
you kidding?”<br />
Jimbo answered,<br />
“Yeah, but you<br />
started it.”<br />

Tyla and her lawyer<br />
are on a plane<br />
together. The pilot<br />
comes on the speaker<br />
and announces<br />
that the flight will<br />
take up to 16 hours.<br />
The lawyer turns<br />
to Tyla and says,<br />
“Okay, I have a<br />
game we can play<br />
while we pass the<br />
time. You ask me<br />
any question, and if<br />
I can’t answer it, I’ll<br />
give you $50. Then,<br />
I get to ask you a<br />
question, any question,<br />
and if you can’t<br />
answer it, you give<br />
me $5.”<br />
Tyla says, “Okay,<br />
what has four legs<br />
going up a hill, and<br />
three legs at the<br />
bottom?”<br />
The lawyer thinks<br />
for a moment, then<br />
hands her $50 and<br />
says, “Wow, that was<br />
tough. I don’t know,<br />
what does have four<br />
legs going up a hill<br />

The Boss<br />
Submitted by Jimbo<br />
A man died and went<br />
up to heaven. Upon<br />
arriving he noticed<br />
two signs. One sign<br />
said “Men Who Are<br />
Bossed By Their<br />
Wives.” The other<br />
one said, “Men Not<br />
Bossed By Their<br />
Wives.”<br />
Upon closer inspection<br />
he noticed that<br />
while next to the first<br />
sign was a big line,<br />
by the second sign<br />
there was just one<br />
man. After getting<br />
even closer he realized<br />
it was his friend,<br />
Harry.<br />
“Hey Harry,” the man<br />
said, “what in the<br />
world are you doing<br />
here? Your wife<br />
bosses you around<br />
more then anybody.”<br />
“I don’t know,” Harry<br />
replied “my wife told<br />
me to stand here.”<br />
Just so everybody’s clear… I’m going to put my glasses on.<br />

After an explosion at a local cheese factory, the only thing that was left was de Brie…<br />
Steve was playing so<br />
badly that his caddie<br />
was getting increasingly<br />
exasperated.<br />
On the 11th hole, his<br />
ball lay about 160<br />
yards from the green.<br />
As he eyed up the<br />
shot, he asked his<br />
caddie, “Do you think<br />
I can get there with a<br />
4 iron?”<br />
“Eventually,” replied<br />
the caddie, wearily.<br />

Pull The<br />
Plug<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
Out in Kansas, tornadoes<br />
often hit with<br />
sudden devastation,<br />
and without warning.<br />
In one case, a house<br />
was completely<br />
whisked away,<br />
leaving only the<br />
foundation and first<br />
floor.<br />
A silver-haired farm<br />
lady was seen sitting<br />
dazed, in a bathtub.<br />
It was the only<br />
remaining part of the<br />
house left above the<br />
floor.<br />
The rescue squad<br />
rushed to her aid<br />
and found her<br />
unhurt. She was<br />
just sitting there in<br />
the tub, talking to<br />
herself.<br />
I burnt my Hawaiian pizza last night. I should have put it on Aloha setting.<br />

Ma’am?” asked one<br />

Neighborly<br />
Submitted by Thomas Hill<br />
Mrs. Silver and her<br />
son, Timmy, were<br />
sitting in their home<br />
having lunch one<br />
day. Mrs. Silver realized<br />
that she hadn’t<br />
heard from her elderly<br />
widowed neighbor<br />
in quite some time.<br />
She thought it best<br />
that someone go and<br />
check on her.<br />
Mrs. Silver said to<br />
her son, “Timmy,<br />
would you go next<br />
door and see how<br />
old Mrs. Kirkland is?”<br />
A few minutes later,<br />
Timmy returned.<br />
“Well,” asked Mrs.<br />
Silver, “is she all<br />
right?”<br />

Sick of It<br />
Submitted by Tyla Davis<br />
Two men are discussing their lives.<br />
One says, “I’m getting married.<br />
I’m sick of a messy apartment,<br />
dirty dishes, and no clothes to<br />
wear.”<br />
The other one says, “Hey, I’m<br />
getting divorced for the same<br />
reasons.”<br />
“She’s fine, except<br />
that she’s angry at<br />
you.”<br />
“At me?” the woman<br />
exclaimed. “Whatever<br />
for?”<br />
“She said ‘It’s none<br />
of your business how<br />
old she is,’” snickered<br />
Timmy.<br />
