    Shipboard Romance

    A young blonde woman in Sydney was so depressed that she decided to end her life by throwing herself from the Harbour Bridge.


    She went down to the bridge and was about to leap into the frigid water when a handsome young sailor saw her tottering on the edge of the Bridge crying.


    He took pity on her and said 'Look, you have so much to live for. I'm off to Europe in the morning, and if you like, I can stow you away on my ship. I'll take good care of you and bring you food every day.'


    Moving closer, he slipped his arm around her shoulder and added, 'I'll keep you happy, and you'll keep me happy.'


    The girl nodded yes. 'After all, what do I have to lose?'


    Perhaps a fresh start in Europe would give her life new meaning.


    That night, the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a lifeboat.


    From then on, every night he brought her three sandwiches and a piece of fruit, and they made passionate love until dawn.


    Three weeks later, during a routine inspection, she was discovered by the captain. ‘What are you doing here?' the captain asked.


    'I have an arrangement with one of the sailors, who's stowed me away' she explained 'I get food and free passage to Europe, and he's screwing me.'


    ''He certainly is,' the captain said. 'This is the Manly Ferry. '



    The Handjob Protest Song



    I don't know who the artist is but this is hoot!


    Can you believe it?

    This guy wins 181 million in the lottery on a Wednesday, and then finds the love of his life just 2 days later.

    Talk about LUCK !!!!

    Cooter and Gomer

    Bubba died in a fire and his body was burned pretty badly...

    The morgue needed someone to identify the body, so they sent for his two best friends, Cooter and Gomer.

    The three men had always done everything together.

    Cooter arrived first, and when the mortician pulled back the sheet, Cooter said, 'Yup, his face is burned up pretty bad. You better roll him over.'

    The mortician rolled him over and Cooter said, 'Nope, ain't Bubba.'

    The mortician thought this was rather strange. So he brought Gomer in to confirm the identity of the body.

    Gomer looked at the body and said, 'Yup, he's pretty well burnt up...

    Roll him over.'

    The mortician rolled him over and Gomer said, 'No, it ain't Bubba.'

    The mortician asked, 'How can you tell?'

    Gomer said, 'Well, Bubba had two assholes.'

    'What? He had two assholes?' asked the mortician.

    'Yup, we never seen 'em, but everybody used to say:

    'There's Bubba with them two assholes.'

    Something Lite To Start With

    Two old guys are pushing their carts around K-Mart when they collide.

    The first old guy says to the second guy, 'Sorry about that. I'm looking for my wife, and I guess I wasn't paying attention to where I was going.'

    The second old guy says, 'That's OK, it's a coincidence. I'm looking for my wife, too. I can't find her and I'm getting a little desperate.'

    The first old guy says, 'Well, maybe I can help you find her. What does she look like?'

    The second old guy says, 'Well, she is 27 yrs old, tall, with red hair, blue eyes, long legs, and is wearing short shorts. What does your wife look like?'

    To which the first old guy says, 'Doesn't matter, let's look for yours.'
