En la tienda de mascotas,

En la tienda de mascotas, un tipo est� mirando a los animales en venta. De pronto, un loro le llama mucho la atenci�n, pero se asombra cuando ve el precio: 5 mil d�lares. Intrigado se dirige al due�o:

“�Por qu� este loro cuesta tan caro?”

“Ah, porque si usted le levanta la patita con el list�n azul, el animal habla en franc�s; y si le levanta la patita con el list�n rojo, entonces habla en ingl�s”.

“�Y qu� pasa si le levanto las dos patitas al mismo tiempo?”, pregunta timorato el tipo.

“�Pues me caigo, idiota!”, responde el loro.

Marriage Secrets…

Secret tips for making a marriage last…

My wife and I have the secrets to making a marriage last…

1. Two times a week, we go to a nice restaurant, a little wine, good
food and companionship. She goes Tuesdays. I go Fridays.

2. We also sleep in separate beds. Hers is in Florida, mine is in NY.

3. I take my wife everywhere, but she keeps finding her way back.

4. I asked my wife, “Where do you want to go for our anniversary?”
“Somewhere I haven’t been in a long time!”
So I suggested, “How about the kitchen?”

5. We always hold hands. If I let go, she shops.

6. She has an electric blender, electric toaster, and electric bread maker. Then she said “There are too many gadgets, and no place to sit down !”
So I bought her an electric chair.

7. My wife told me the car wasn’t running well, there was water in the carburetor. When I asked where the car was, she told me “In the lake.”

8. My wife is on a new diet. Coconuts and bananas. She hasn’t lost weight, but BOY, can she climb a tree now!

9. She got a mudpack and looked great for two days. Then the mud fell off…

10. She ran after the garbage truck, yelling, “Am I too late for the garbage?”
The driver said, “No, jump in!”

The Terrible Golfer

A pretty terrible golfer was playing a round of golf for which he had hired a caddie. The round proved to be somewhat tortuous for the caddie to watch and he was getting a bit exasperated by the poor play of his employer. At one point the ball lay about 180 yards from the green and the as the golfer sized up his situation, he asked his caddie, “Do you think I can get there with a 5-iron?”And the caddie replied, “Eventually.”

I want Natalie

The madam opened the brothel door to see an elderly Jewish man. His
clothes were all disheveled and he looked needy. “Can I help you?” the
madam asked. “I want Natalie,” the old man replied. “Sir, Natalie is one
of our most expensive ladies, perhaps someone else…” “No, I must see
Natalie.”

Just then Natalie appeared and announced to the old man that she charges
$1,000 per visit. The man never blinked and reached into his pocket and
handed her ten $100 bills. The two went up to a room for an hour whereupon
the man calmly left.

The next night he appeared again demanding Natalie. Natalie explained that
no one had ever come back two nights in a row and that there were no
discounts… it was still $1,000. Again the old man took out the money,
the two went up to the room and he calmly left an hour later.

When he showed up the third consecutive night, no one could believe it.
Again he handed Natalie the money and up to the room they went. At the end
of the hour Natalie questioned the old man: “No one has ever used my
services three nights in a row… where are you from?” The old man
replied, “I am from Minsk.” “Really?” replied Natalie, “I have a sister
who lives there.” “Yes, I know,” said the old man. “She gave me $3,000 to
give to you.”

Memo From Accounting Department

It has come to our attention recently that many of you

have been turning in timesheets that specify large amounts

of “Miscellaneous Unproductive Time” (Code 5309). However,

we need to know exactly what you are doing during your

unproductive time.

Attached below is a sheet specifying a tentative extended

job code list based on our observations of employee activities.

The list will allow you to specify with a fair amount of

precision what you are doing during your unproductive time.

Please begin using this job-code list immediately and let

us know about any difficulties you encounter.

Thank you,

Accounting

Shot To The Heart

Aging Mildred was a 93 year-old woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband Earl.She decided that she would just kill herself and join him in death. Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she took out Earl’s old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart since it was so badly broken in the first place.Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and burden to someone, she called her doctor to inquire as to just exactly where the heart would be.”On a woman,” the doctor said, “your heart would be just below your left breast.”Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her knee.
