Submitted by Thomas Hill

Today while making

dinner with the entire

family, my dad asked

my younger sister to

get the meat out the

freezer. My sister opens

the fridge and is on her

toes to reach the meat.

You can hear the determination

in her exhales

as she tries stretching

to reach.

The entire family is

watching intensely

when my dad blurts

out, “The steaks have

never been higher.”

Everyone immediately

walks out of the kitchen,

including my sister.

Domestic

Crustaceans

Submitted by Thomas Hill

A Game Warden is

walking along a beach

one morning when he

spots a man with a

bucket of lobsters.

The Warden walks up

to the man, flashes

his badge and says,

“You’re in big trouble,

buddy. Poaching

lobsters is a serious

offense.”

The man answers,

“You’ve got it all wrong!

These lobsters are my

pets! Every morning I

take them out for some

exercise. I let them

swim around in the

ocean for a few minutes

and then whistle

them back in.”

The Warden looks at

the man skeptically

and says, “Okay then,

prove it.”

The man proceeds to

throw the lobsters into

the ocean and both he

and the Warden stand

there waiting. After a

couple minutes the

Warden looks at the

man and says, “That’s

long enough, now

whistle your lobsters

back in.”

The man turns to the

Warden and says

“Lobsters? What

lobsters?”

“The Powerball is

said Mike.

“That’s a good idea,”

Fresh Walls

Submitted by Tyla Davis

Travis had just moved

into a new neighborhood.

While he was

unpacking, he noticed

a woman next door

smoothing out new

wallpaper. Travis

waited a couple of

days and saw through

the window that the

wallpaper job was

beautifully done.

He went over to the

neighbor’s house and

knocked. When the

woman answered, he

said, “Hi there! I just

moved in next door

and couldn’t help but

notice the new wallpaper

on your walls. I am

interested in doing my

the walls in my home

too and our houses

seem to be the same

size and layout. Can

you tell me how many

rolls of paper you

bought?”

“Welcome to the neighborhood,”

said the

woman. “I bought 16

rolls of wallpaper for

my home. Good luck

with your project.”

I’m seriously thinking about re-marrying my ex-wife,

but I’m pretty sure she’ll figure out I’m just after my money.

Price Change

Submitted by Thomas Hill

My wife and I went to

breakfast at a restaurant

where the “Senior

Special” was two eggs,

bacon, hash browns,

and toast for $4.99.

“Sounds good,” my

wife said, “but I don’t

want the eggs.”

“Then I’ll have to

charge you $5.49 because

you’re ordering

a la carte,” the waitress

warned her.

“You mean I’d have to

pay more for not taking

the eggs?” my wife

asked incredulously.

“Yes,” said the waitress.

“I’ll take the special,

then,” my wife said.

“How do you want your

eggs?” the waitress

asked.

“Raw and in the shell,”

my wife replied.

She took the two eggs

home and baked a

cake.

The Lewiston Police Department wins for the second year in a row,

pulling the 35,000 pound jet 20 feet in 7.7 seconds!

Exercise gives you the energy you need to exercise.

Sounds like a pyramid scheme to me.

Getting Old

Submitted by Thomas Hill

Three old ladies were

sitting at the dinner

table discussing their

problems with getting

old.

The first one said,

“Sometimes I catch

myself with a jar of

mayonnaise in my

hand, while standing in

front of the refrigerator,

and I can’t remember

whether I need to put it

away, or start making a

sandwich.”

The second lady says,

“Yes, sometimes I find

myself on the landing

of the stairs and can’t

remember whether I

was on my way up or

on my way down.”

The third one says,

“Well, ladies, I’m glad

I don’t have any of

those problems, knock

on wood.”

As she hit her knuckles

on the table she

looked up and said,

“That must be the

door... I’ll get it!”

I went to the local baker and tried to order shortbread. They told me they don’t make it any longer.

Final Exam

Submitted by Jimbo

Every time a little boy

went to a playmate’s

house, he found the

friend’s grandmother

deeply engrossed in

her Bible. Finally his

curiosity got the better

of him.

“Why do you suppose

your grandmother

reads the Bible so

much?” he asked.

“I’m not sure,” said his

friend, “but I think she’s

cramming for her finals.”

Teed Off

Submitted by Steve Simard

Every time I leave the door open, my mom asks me if I was raised in a barn.

Weird, you’d think she’d remember.

Joe, a notoriously bad

golfer, hits his ball

off the first tee and

watches as it slices to

the right and disappears

through an open

window.

Figuring that’s the end

of it, he gets another

ball out of his bag and

plays on.

On the eighth hole, a

police officer walks up

to Joe on the course

and says, “Did you hit

a golf ball through a

window back there?”

Joe says, “Yes I did.”

9-1-1

Emergency

Submitted by Tyla Davis

A 9-1-1 operator was

just coming off of her

break when a call

came in. She quickly

put on her headset and

answered.

“9-1-1, what’s your

emergency?” asked

the operator.

“Hurry, I need an ambulance,

quick!” came

the frantic reply. “I just

saw a guy get hit by a

car. He is conscious,

but it looks like his legs

and arms are broken!”

“Okay, sir, calm down,”

the operator instructed.

“What is your location

and we’ll send help

right away.”

“I’m on Eucalyptus

street... hurry!” yelled

the man.

“Help is on the way

soon, sir,” the operator

replied. “Can you

please spell that street

name for me?”

There was a long awkward

pause and the

9-1-1 operator became

concerned.

“Sir, are you still there?

Sir, can you hear me?

If so, please spell the

name of the street that

you are currently on.”

“Yes, I’m still here. I’m

going to drag the guy

over to Pine Street and

I’ll call you right back.”

Two priests recently

passed away and were

on their way to heaven.

When they got to

the pearly gates, St.

Peter said, “I’m sorry,

but our computer is

down and you can’t

come in for a week. So

I am going to give you

both one “free” week

back on earth to do

anything you want to

do and nothing will be

held against you.”

“You mean we can do

whatever we want, and

still get into heaven?”

“Yes,” said St. Peter.

“Okay,” said the first

priest, “I want to soar

over the mountains like

an eagle.”

“That’s easy enough,”

said St. Peter. “Off you

go!”

The second priest

asked, “Are you sure

that whatever I do will

not hinder my chances

of getting into heaven?”

“That’s right,” said St.

Peter.

“Okay,” said the second

priest, “I want to

go back as a stud.”

“A stud?” asked St.

Peter.

“Yes,” said the second

priest.

“Okay, I’ll see you in a

week.”

Finally, the week ended

and the computer

was repaired. God

asked to St. Peter, “Did

you get the two priests

back so they can join

us here?”

“Well,” said St. Peter.

“I got the first priest

back; he was soaring

over the Rocky Mountains

like an eagle.

I’m having a bit of a

problem locating the

second priest; he’s

somewhere in Maine

on a snow tire.”

Pretzels

Submitted by Thomas Hill

A guy walks into a

bar and takes a seat.

Before he can order

a beer, the bowl of

pretzels in front of him

says, “Hey, you’re a

handsome fellow.”

I won a gold medal at the weather forecasting tournament today.

The man tries to ignore

the bowl of pretzels,

and orders a fine Pilsner

beer.

The bowl of pretzels

then says, “Ooooh, a

pilsner, great choice.

You’re a smart man.”

Starting to freak out,

the guy says to the

bartender, “Hey what

the hell, this bowl of

pretzels keeps saying

nice things to me!”

The bartender replies,

“Don’t worry about it,

the pretzels are

complimentary.”
