One day a man comes home from work to find total mayhem at home. The kids were outside still in their pajamas playing in the mud and muck. There were empty food boxes and wrappers all around.

As he proceeded into the house, he found an even bigger mess. Dishes on the counter, dog food spilled on the floor, a broken glass under the table, and a small pile of sand by the back door. The family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing, and a lamp had been knocked over.

He headed up the stairs, stepping over toys, to look for his wife. He was becoming worried that she may be ill, or that something had happened to her.

He found her in the bedroom, still in bed with her pajamas on, reading a book.

She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, "what happened here today?"

She again smiled and answered, "You know everyday when you come home from work and ask me what I did today?"

"Yes, was his reply."

She answered, "Well, today I didn't do it!"

Gertrude had a beagle who was her constant companion. It even had a bed at the foot of her own bed. But the beagle had one very annoying habit--it snored!

One day Gertrude was talking to her friend and spoke of the annoying snoring. The friend said she had a perfect solution...."You simply tie a red ribbon around the beagle's you know whats," she said.

Gertrude thought the idea was totally ridiculous, and didn't think of it again until later that week. Her husband was going to be gone for most of the evening to attend a bachelor party, and she settled down in bed with a good book--the beagle right beside her in his bed. As she drifted off to dreamland----so did the dog---and started snoring like a jack hammer. Gertrude, being a light sleeper, had had enough. She went to her dresser and fumbled through it until she found a red ribbon, and promptly tied it around the dog's "you know whats". The beagle stopped snoring almost instantly, and Gertrude fell asleep.

A little while later, hubby came home drunker than a skunk---pulled off all his clothes---plopped on the bed---and started snoring like a jack hammer!

Gertrude woke immediately---looked over at her husband---and said, "Well, it worked on the dog!" She fumbled through her dresser, searching for another red ribbon, but couldn't find one. "What the hell, color couldn't matter," she said, and retrieved a blue one. She carefully tied the blue ribbon around her husband's "you know whats" and he immediately stopped the racket.

Gertrude, her husband and the dog were sleeping quietly until the effects of all the drinking hit hubby about 3:00 a.m. He ran to the bathroom adjoing the bedroom and was totally shocked when he looked down and saw the blue ribbon tied to his "you know whats." He then looked over at the dog and saw the red ribbon.

He yelled, "Oh my God, Fido--I don't know where we were or what we did---but I got first prize and you got second!"

The grossest thing for me to see
is my bathroom floor all full of pee
Why can't they make it in the bowl?
Don't they see-there is a hole?
Out in the woods they think it's cute
to see how far a guy can "shoot."
But in the house, it's plain to see...
there is a bowl in which to pee
(It's usually white and kinda round
you hit the water, not the ground.)
Why can't they make it in the bowl?
Is it a problem with control?
If not control, then tell me why...
they make the bathroom such a sty?
Come on guys, get a clue!
You know what you have to do
Be a human not a pig
and don't forget to lift the lid.
When your done, make it flush
don't always be in such a rush.
Then take the lid and push it down
(don't made us women feel like clowns)
Falling in, it is not fun-
getting water on your buns
Zip up your pants and you're all done
now wasn't that alot of fun??
Keep this little poem in mind~
your woman will find you very kind.

One day, an old Indian Chief needed to call his warriors back to camp. So he decided to use the state of the art communication available at the time...the smoke signal. He started a fire and grabbed a blanket and told his warriors to return "pronto".

Well, the warriors came back.......8 hours later. The Chief was pretty upset and asked them, "You no see my smoke signal ?".

One of the warriors replied, "Yes, we see smoke signal. We no understand smoke signal."

Chief say' "Why you no understand smoke signal ?"

Same warrior replies, "Words come in funny shapes."

Just then, another warrior brings over the blanket and began reading the label on it and then asked "Where is China ?"
