Why did the chicken cross the road?







To prove to the armadillo that it could be done.

Why did Willie Nelson cross the road?



To do a duet with a chicken!

Joining in (sorry if you've heard 'em before)...

How many mice does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Two, but the trick is getting them inside the light bulb...

Am I too blue for you?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Two elephants fell off a cliff.
Boom! Boom!

(that works better verbally, in fact).

------------------------------------------------------------------------

What's brown and sticky?













A stick!

What ticks on the wall?
Ticky paper!

So there was this rabbit, right? And he's a regular at his local pub. Every evening he goes in there, has a pint of bitter and a packet of cheese toasties. Regular as anything. Then one night, he goes in for his pint of bitter and his cheese toasties, and the barman says to him "look, I'm sorry, mate, but I've run out of cheese toasties," so the rabbit is all "oh, what am I going to do?" and the barman says, "well, I've got ham toasties, you could try those," so that's what the rabbit does. He has his pint of bitter and his ham toasties, then off he goes. The barman then doesn't see him for weeks. Then, one night, just around closing time, in walks the ghost of this rabbit. The barman says to him "Blimey, mate, what happened to you?" and the rabbit says "well, I'm dead aren't I?", and the barman says, "well, yeah, but what did you die of?" and the rabbit says, "Mixing ma toasties."

A man came home from work to find his blond wife working at the kitchen table. "What are you doing?", he asked. His wife replied, "I'm trying to put together a jigsaw puzzle, but it's really hard. Here, look at the box, it's supposed to be a tiger."

The man shook his head slowly. "Honey, put the Frosted Flakes back in the box."

No.

MYXOMATOSIS a real life WMD:

a disease of rabbits, introduced into Australia & UK to kill off those things. Was pretty sad to see when it was going on -- their glands swelled & they were blind for a few days before dying. Running or crawling around in broad daylight, blind, with the ravens or crows picking at them. That's how it looked in Wales.

A man walks into a bar (no, this is not that joke). He orders a drink and says to the bartender, "Hey do you wanna hear this great blonde joke I heard today?"
The bartender replies: "I'm a blonde, and I have a baseball bat under the bar. See that woman next to you? She's a blonde and is an olympic shot-putter. That woman over by the pool table? She's a blonde and she has a black belt in karate. The woman down by the end of the bar? She's a blonde, and she's a national boxing champion. And that woman just coming back from the ladies' room? She's a blonde, and she's a bodybuilder - she can bench press 200 lbs. Now, are you sure you want to tell that blonde joke?"
The fellow looks around and says "Hell, no. I don't wanna have to explain it five times!"

Just making a feeble pun on the similarity between Mister Mxyzptlk and the rabbit disease. But if it has to be explained, it's not a joke...

I don't like scary campfire stories, so I've perfected this little bugger for when somebody says we should tell them. It's...
The Scariest Story Ever!
Okay, so these two countries fired all of their atomic weapons at each other and all of the people got terrible radiation sickness. Then, the dust filled the atmosphere and blocked out the sun and the plants wouldn't grow and everybody died. The End.
Scary, huh?

In the library, my little brother came up to me and said what sounded like "Where is the restroom?"
So I said "You know where that is!"
And he said "No, I don't."
So, I took his hand and started walking to the restroom. About halfway there, he said
"Where are you taking me?"
"The restroom. That's what you asked for."
"No, I said 'Where are the westerns?'"
