A male whale and a female whale were swimming off the coast of Japan when they noticed a whaling ship. The male whale recognized it as the same ship that had harpooned his father many years earlier.
He said to the female whale, "Lets both swim under the ship and blow out of our air holes at the same time and it should cause the ship to turn over and sink."
They tried it and sure enough, the ship turned over and quickly sank. Soon however, the whales realized the sailors had jumped overboard and were swimming to the safety of shore. The male was enraged that they were going to get away and told the female "lets swim after them and gobble them up before they reach the shore."
At this point, he realized that the female was becoming reluctant to follow him. "Look," she said, "I went along with the blow job, but I absolutely refuse to swallow the seamen."

Penguin's car has been running
rough for weeks, so he finally
decides to take it in and have a
mechanic check it out.

"Can you have a look at this? It's
running really rough," he says.

"No problem," replies the
mechanic. "But I won't be able to
get around to it for a half-hour."

Rather than sitting in the shop's
rather unpleasant waiting room,
Penguin decides to take a stroll
down the street, where he happens
upon an ice cream shop. Not
having eaten all day, he orders a
triple scoop of vanilla, which he
consumes with reckless abandon.
"Man, that was good," Penguin
says to himself with a mess of ice
cream dripping off his beak.

When Penguin arrives back at the
shop, the mechanic greets him with
the bad news.

"It looks like you blew a seal," he
says, nodding his head.

"Oh... no... that's just ice cream,"
replies Penguin.
