Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica ?
Where do they go? Wonder no more! It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and complex life. The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as maintain a form of compassionate contact with its off spring throughout life. If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their beaks and vestigial wings, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into and buried. The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing: "Freeze a jolly good fellow." "Freeze a jolly good fellow." Then they kick him in the ice hole. |

One goldfish says to the other, "If there's no God, who changes our water every week?"

Why are pickup lines called so, when the purpose is contrary?
Shouldn't they rather be called lay-lines? |

A woman went to the doctor's office where she was seen by one of the younger doctors.
After about four minutes in the examination room, she burst out screaming as she ran down the hall. An older doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was, and she told him her story. After listening, he had her sit down and relax in another room. The older doctor marched down the hallway back to where the young doctor was writing on his clipboard. "What the hell is the matter with you?!" the older doctor demanded. “Mrs. Terry is 71 years old, has four grown children and seven grandchildren, and you told her she was pregnant?" The younger doctor continued writing and without looking up said, "Does she still have the hiccups?" |

I was more nervous than a ceiling fan store owner with a comb-over.

And I'm more nervous than a repairman for wind turbines in a tropical storm.

My wife told me she's loving me because I don't listen to her properly.

If your feet smell and your nose runs, you're built upside down.
