Well this is dangerous, but still it is one of my favoutites in English. I will change it a little, maybe it avoids me from getting banned:

"What is the difference between American beer and making love on a boat?"

"There is no difference, both is very close to water"

(now replace very by a word not to be used on this forum)

Hey wait ... stop throwing those beer cans at me .. ouch....

Why did the dumb pilot think Southwest was a clothing store?
Because somebody said working there would suit him!

What did one astronaut say to another as they approached Venus?

did you know that the answer to life the universe and everything was really 42.165482895106546735784567764433356842? but deepthought rounded it off because he didn't think people could handle that much truth.

I thought it was because he used a Pentium chip, and that was as close an approximation as he could get.

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was. When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen. He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.

"WHICH ONE OF YOU SIDEWINDERS STOLE MY HORSE?" he yelled with surprising forcefulness.

No one answered.

"ALRIGHT, I'M GONNA HAVE ANOTHA BEER, AND IF MY HORSE AIN'T BACK OUTSIDE BY THE TIME I FINISH, I'M GONNA DO WHAT I DUN IN TEXAS! AND I DON'T LIKE TO HAVE TO DO WHAT I DUN IN TEXAS!"

Some of the locals shifted restlessly.

He had another beer, walked outside, and his horse was back! He saddled-up and started to ride out of town.

The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say partner, before you go... what happened in Texas?"

The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home."

When white men discovered this country, Indians were running it...

No Taxes.

No Debt.

Women did most of the work.

Indian men hunted and fished all the time!

And then, white men were dumb enough to think they could improve a system like that.

On Halloween, a "Martian", a "werewolf" and a "soldier" go into a restaurant. The "Martian" turns around and says
"Is this supposed to be a joke?"

Harry & Sam are clams. Although they were best friends, Harry the Clam was a very good clam, and Sam was a very bad clam. In a tragic accident, both clams were killed. Harry, the good clam, went to Heaven. Sam, being a bad clam, went to Hell.
Six months pass. St. Peter was checking up on the newest entrants and had a chance to chat with Harry. "Harry, is everything good for you up here?" he asked.
Harry replied, " Everything is perfect, and I don' t wish to complain, but I really miss by best friend Sam."
St Peter offered " Why don't you get a pass and visit him for a few days?"
Astonished, Harry inquired " How is this possible?"
St Peter smiled "As an angel, you are given a special harp as a passport back into heaven. Just show the Pearly Gatekeeper the harp and you are admitted back in."
Not believing his good fortune, Harry requested the harp, and proceeded down to the pits of Hell to see his old friend Sam. "Good to see you old friend! How is life in hell?" greeted Harry when he first saw Sam.
" Fantastic! The people are great - and the nightlife, unbelievable! In fact, I own my own disco & night club down here. Want to come see it?" teased Sam.
"Why not, as long as I have my passport harp, what can be the problem?" thought Harry, and off they went.
After a week of reveling at the nightclub, Harry thought it prudent to get back up to heaven. Upon arriving at the Pearly Gates, Harry hollered at the closed gates, " Hey, it's Harry the clam, let me in!" The gatekeeper replied "Harry, if that's really you, where's your harp?"
"Oh my gosh! " said Harry, and then he sang " I left my harp in Sam Clams disco."

I told everybody your cowboy joke, MetalAvenger, and they all cracked up as much as I did.
