After Bravo found that page of jokes for passer I was surprised we didn't have a 'Jokes' topic on the forum. So I've started one! My starter for ten are two links that prove that even science can be amusing. For our younger listeners: The Elements. And for grown-ups. Silly, and sometimes rather rude Molecules. Oops, that first link seems not to work. Be back later...... Fixed the link - Bravo

Who knew science could be such fun, we never learnt those ones at school ;D My friend sent me this the other day which i thought was sick but funny Lipstick in School -- Priceless!! According to a news report, a certain private school in Washington was recently faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom. That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints. Every night the maintenance man would remove them and the next day the girls would put them back. Finally, the principal decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night. To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required. He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it. Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror. There are teachers, and then there are educators. ;D She also sent me another ruder one but that's a cartoon so i shall have to upload that EDIT: had to take a screenshot of my email as i couldn't save the picture Anyway here it is ;D img.photobucket.com/albums/v186/Calislahn/misc/fred.jpgYour links still not working Mebyon, even when i took out the mistake at the beggining of it where it repeats, and yes i did copy and paste

Oh, the link was very messed up, repeats all over the place...it should work now though. Here's an email from me mum: My FavoriteStep on ToesIncentive PlanMeetingsManual BackupLottery TicketOnly a TestDoing a Good JobBulletinAttitude...and here's a Romanian joke, I've done my best to retell it in English: In his tent, Stephan the Great, Romanian hero of old: Squire: My Lord, 1,000 Turks approaching! Stephan: This day we shall be victorious, bring me my sword! The next day... Squire: My Lord, 10,000 Turks approaching! Stephan: Bring me my red shirt so that the men do not see me get wounded The third day... Squire: My Lord, 100,000 Turks approaching! Stephan: Bring me my brown pants...

I'm rather worried that you'll all have read this before, but I'm bit short on quotable jokes ;D

Bravo, I meant to say. Thanks for fixing the link and, in the spirit of never stop learning, where did I go wrong? (This is, after all, a joke thread and my use of the 'features' on the forum has been described as a joke!)

You pasted your link once, must have clicked in the very middle of it and pasted again, thus creating something like: www.google.comto http://www.gohttp://www.google.comogle.com ...Cali caught the first part, but not the last...

There's always one, isn't there! How the four-ale-bar did I manage that. (Maybe the trembling hands of old age!) OK thanks, I'll know what to look out for next time.

Oh those are real groaners ;D
Here's one my dad got emailed today.
Corporate Cannibals
A big corporation recently hired several cannibals.
"You are part of our team now" said Human Resources during the welcoming briefing. "You get all the usual benefits and you can go to the cafeteria for something to eat, but please do not eat any of the other employees."
The cannibals promised they would not.
Four weeks later their boss remarked, "You're all working very hard, and i'm very satisfied with you. However, one of our secretaries has dissapeared. Do any of you know what happened to her?"
The cannibals all shook their heads. After the boss left, the leader of the cannibals said to the others, "Which one of you idiots ate the secretary"
A hand rose hesitantly, to which the leader of the cannibals shouted, "You fool! For four weeks we've been eating managers and no one noticed anything! But nooooooooo, you had to go and eat someone important!"
;D
BTW Regan i take your feeling better now?
