Bad stutter

A big guy with a bad stutter goes to a counter in a department store and asks, “W-w-w-where`s the m-m-m-men`s dep-p-p-partment?”

The clerk behind the counter just looks at him and says nothing.

The man repeats himself: “W-w-w-where`s the m-m-m-men`s dep-p-p-partment?”

Again, the clerk doesn`t answer him.

The guy asks several more times: “W-w-w-where`s the m-m-m-men`s dep-p-p-partment?” And the clerk just seems to ignore him.

Finally, the guy is angry and storms off.

The customer who was waiting in line behind the guy asks the clerk, “why wouldn`t you answer that guy`s question?”

The clerk answers, “D-d-d-do you th-th-th-think I w-w-w-want to get b-b-b-beat up?!!”

A nervous taxpayer was unhappily conversing with the IRS Tax auditor who had come to review her records. At one point the auditor exclaimed, “Ms. Carr, we feel it is a great privilege to be allowed to live and work in the USA. As a citizen you have an obligation to pay taxes, and we expect you to eagerly pay them with a smile.”

“Thank goodness,” returned Ms. Carr, with a giant grin on her face. “I thought you were going to want me to pay with cash!”

What’s With These Guys?

A priest, a doctor and an engineer were getting frustrated one morning because a very slow group of golfers were ahead of them.

Engineer: What’s with these guys? We have been waiting for 30 minutes for them to finish the hole!

Doctor: I don’t know but I have never seen such a slow foursome!

Priest: Hey, here comes the greens keeper. Let’s make our complaint to him… “Hi George. Say, what’s with that group ahead of us? They are ruining our morning being so slow.”

George: Oh yes. That’s a group of blind firefighters. They all lost their sight while saving our club house… You remember the fire. So we let them play here anytime free of charge.

( silence )

Priest: That’s so sad. I will say a special prayer for them at mass.

Doctor: Good idea. And I’m going to contact my ophthalmologist friend and see if there is anything he can do for them.

Engineer: So why can’t those guys play at night?

Cabbie

One dismal rainy night in Sydney a taxi driver spotted an arm waving from the shadows of an alley. Even before he rolled to a stop at the curb, a figure leaped into the cab and slammed the door.

Checking his rear view mirror as he pulled away, he was startled to see a dripping wet, naked woman sitting in the back seat.

‘Where to?’ he stammered.

‘Kings Cross,’ answered the woman.

‘You got it,’ he said, taking another long glance in the mirror.

The woman caught him staring at her and asked, ‘Just what the hell are you looking at, driver?’

‘Well, madam,’ he answered, ‘I was just wondering how you’ll pay your fare.’

The woman spread her legs, put her feet up on the front seat, smiled at the driver and said,
‘Does this answer your question?’

Still looking in the mirror, the cabbie asked, ‘Got anything smaller?’
