New Born Redneck

In the back woods of Arkansas, Mr. Stewart’s wife went into labor in the middle of the night, and the doctor was called out to assist in the delivery. To keep the nervous father-to-be busy, the doctor handed him a lantern and said, “Here, you hold this high so I can see what I’m doing.”

Soon, a wee baby boy was brought into the world. “Whoa there Scotty!” said the doctor. “Don’t be in a rush to put the lantern down…I think there’s yet another wee one to come.”

Sure enough, within minutes he had delivered another little baby. “No, no, don’t be in a great hurry to be putting down that lantern, young man…It seems there’s yet another one besides!” cried the doctor.

The new father scratched his head in bewilderment, and asked the doctor. “Do ye think it’s the light that’s attractin’ them?”

But I’m not a Giants Fan…

Two boys are playing football in Central Park when one is attacked by a rabid Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other boy rips off a board of the nearby fence, wedges it down the dogs collar and twists, breaking the dogs neck.

A reporter who was strolling by sees the incident, and rushes over to interview the boy.

“Young Giants Fan Saves Friend From Viciou Animal,” he starts writing in his notebook.
“But I’m not a Giants fan,” the little hero replied.

“Sorry, since we are in New York, I just assumed you were.” said the reporter and starts again.
“Little Jets Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific Attack” he continued writing in his notebook.
“I’m not a Jets fan either,” the boy said.

“I assumed everyone in New York was either for the Giants or Jets.
“What team do you root for?” the reporter asked.
“I’m a Cowboys fan.” the child said.

The reporter starts a new sheet in his notebook and writes,
“Little Redneck Bastard Kills Beloved Family Pet!”

Letter

Dear Mother and Dad,

It has been three months now since I left for college. I have been remiss in
writing and I am very sorry for my thoughtlessness in not writing before. I
will bring you up to date now, but before you read
on, please sit down. You are not to read further unless you are sitting down,
okay?

Well, then, I’m getting along pretty well now. The skull fracture and the
concussion I got when I jumped out of the window of my dormitory when it caught
fire shortly after my arrival here is pretty well healed. I only spent two
weeks in the hospital and now I can see almost normally and only get those sick
headaches once a day.

Fortunately, the fire in the dormitory and my jump was witnessed by an
attendant at the gas station near the dorm, and he was the one who called the
fire department and the ambulance. He also visited me in
the hospital and since I have nowhere to live because of the burnt-out
dormitory, he was kind enough to invite me to share his apartment. It’s really a
basement room, and it’s kind of cute. He is a very fine boy and we have fallen
deeply in love and are planning to get married.

We haven’t set the exact date yet, but it will be before my pregnancy begins
to show. I know how much you are looking forward to being grandparents, and I
know you will welcome the baby and give it the same love and devotion and tender
care you gave me when I was a child.

The reason for the delay in our marriage is that my boyfriend has a minor
infection that prevents us from passing our premarital blood tests and I
carelessly caught it from him. I have bumps all over my
“down there” but this will soon clear up with the penicillin injections I am
taking daily. I know that you will welcome him into our family with open arms.
He is kind and although not well educated,he is ambitious. Although he is of a
different race, color and religion than ours, I know your often-expressed
tolerance will not permit you to be bothered by this fact.
Now that I have brought you up to date, I want to tell you that there was no
dormitory fire. I did not have a concussion or a skull fracture. I was not in
the hospital. I am not pregnant. I am not engaged. I do not have a disease
and there is no miscegenation in my
life. However, I am getting a “D” in history and an “F” in science, and I
wanted you to see those marks in the proper perspective.

Your loving daughter, Kimberly!

Saving George W. Bush

George W. Bush was out jogging one morning along the parkway
when he tripped, fell over the bridge railing, and landed in the
creek below. Before the Secret Service guys could get to him, 3
kids who were fishing pulled him out of the water. He was so
grateful he offered the kids whatever they wanted.

The first kid said, “I want to go to Disneyland.” George W.
said, “No problem. I’ll take you there on Air Force One”.

The second kid said, “I want a new pair of Nike Air Jordan’s.”
George W. said, “I’ll get them for you and even have Michael
sign them!”

The third kid said, “I want a motorized wheelchair with a built
in TV and stereo headset!” George W. was a little perplexed by
this and said, “But you don’t look like you are handicapped.”
The kid replied, “I will be, after my dad finds out I saved your
ass from drowning!”

Healthcare Reform

Hilary Clinton was taking a tour of a D.C. hospital while working to reform
healthcare in the U.S.
as she is touring, a doctor is explaining all the different functions of the
hospital to her. Eventually, they pass an open room in the inpatient ward, where
Hilary could clearly see a middle aged man masturbating with great enthusiasm.
The doctor quickly instructed the floor nurse to close the door. It was too
late, Hilary had already seen. She fiercely looked at the doctor and said, “What
kind of hospital are you running here Doctor?”

The doctor calmly explained to the First Lady that the man had a very rare
ailment, which required him to ejaculate three times daily, or his testicles
would swell and he would die.

Hilary accepted the doctor’s explanation and they moved on.

A few minutes later, they came across another open room, yet this time they
witnessed a nurse on her knees giving a different middle aged man oral sex.

Hilary was outraged and called for an immediate explanation.

“It’s very simple Mrs. Clinton”, said the doctor. “This man suffers from the
same ailment as the last man, however he has a much better health plan.”
