Smile More Humor: All of us could use a smile.

I know we should be talking about our love of MB. And if not that, Open Discussions of some weight. But maybe it's just time to have a little fun too.

I've got some more links to humor sites below.

I hope you like them.

I'd like to see your web surfing humor too!

http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s3i7892
http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s2i7842
http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s2i6037
http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s4i6651

I also don't want this to be politcal (since it would be against the Forum rules), but also because that defeats the prupose of fun.

Have a good week.

Talking

That old English dead guy, what's his name? Bill Shakespeere...speare...whatever...wrote that brevity is the soul of wit. Actually, the first draft was: "brevity is the soul of wit, really it is". Proving the value of the rewrite.

Anyway, I think the best example of this is that old Jack Benny exchange:
Robber: Your money or your life
LONG SILENCE
Robber: Well?!
Benny: Don't rush me. I'm thinking it over.

That's the only time I can remember where silence was the punchline. Now THAT'S brevity.

Will

I, _________________________ (fill in the blank), being of sound mind and
body, do not wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means.

Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of peckerwood
politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended
on it.

If a reasonable amount of time passes and I fail to sit up and ask for a
cold beer, it should be presumed that I won't do so ever again. When such
a determination is reached, I hereby instruct my spouse, children and
attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes and call it a
day!

Mitch Hedberg.

Was one of the funniest men alive 'til he died a couple of weeks ago. I would say that it's a tragedy, but I bet he'd think it was ****** funny. Probably make a few thousand jokes about it.

A church accepts the low bid for a painter to repaint the steeple.

Painter realizes that he's going to loose a lot of money with his bid, so he sneaks water into the paint to thin it down, stretching the paint to profitability.

After he gets about 1/2 done, a terrifying bolt of lightning and violent thunderclap scare him quickly off the steeple. Then a deluge of biblical (naturally) proportion unloads on his fresh paint. Being watered, the paint quickly washes away.

The rain stops, sun comes out and a voice from heaven booms, "Repaint and thin no more!"

Wanna have some fun? When there's a wait and they ask your name, just tell them with a straight face, "Wilde", or "Blanket", or "Sex".

When they announce you, it will be "Wild party of six", or "Blanket party of eight", or "Sex party of two", etc. Good for a few laughs.
