John was a clerk in a small drugstore but he was not much of a salesman. He could never find the item the customer wanted. Bob, the owner, had had about enough and warned John that the next sale he missed would be his last. Just then a man came in coughing and he ask John for their best cough syrup. Try as he might John could not find the cough syrup. Remembering Bob's warning he sold the man a box of Ex-Lax and told him to take it all at once. The customer did as John said and then walked outside and leaned against a lamp post. Bob had seen the whole thing and came over to ask John what had transpired. "He wanted something for his cough but I couldn't find the cough syrup. I substituted Ex-Lax and told him to take it all at once" John explained. "Ex-Lax won't cure a cough" Bob shouted angrily. "Sure it will" John said, pointing at the man leaning on the lamp post. "Look at him. He's afraid to cough."

Totally tasteless and hopefully largely unappreciated. When you die I hope those you leave behind don't have to suffer the indignity that you have bestowed upon premature death. I'm glad I don't know you. My apologies to those who came here for humour. Dan Byrne

SK, Thanks, funny. There will be others critical of this humor, but don't let them get you down. They may also attempt to have the SI PC police remove the post, again don't sweat it. Keep 'em coming

re princess diana jokes, funny. Mean though. Of course this has been a very mean week! Halloween tomorrow. lBeware! Things will get better in November. Joke:(I apologize if I have posted it before.) Sid was golfing with his friend Karl. They stopped for a moment between holes and Sid took out his Bic and had a smoke. His Bic was the longest Karl had ever seen, about a foot long. "Where did you get that?" asked Karl. "I found a GEnie" he said to Karl. "And the genie is supposed to grant wishes. " "May I see?" asked Karl. Sid took the genie out from his golf bag. "Just one wish, please?" begged Karl. "Well go ahead" said Sid. Karl thought about it and then wished for 1 million bucks. Nothing happened. The golfers continued on to the next hole. Suddenly there was a very loud quacking noise above them. About a million ducks were flying over head. "Damn" said Karl. "I asked for a million bucks, not ducks." Sid shook his head sadly. " I think the genie is hard of hearing" he said. "You dont think I asked for a foot long Bic do you?" Laugh and be happy. But its hard with a margin account and dell below 80 and compaq below 65.
