New Employee Orientation
 
Five cannibals get appointed as engineers in a high-tech company. During the welcoming ceremony, the boss says, "You're all part of our team now. You can earn good money here, and you can go to the cafeteria for something to eat.
So don't trouble any of the other employees."
 
The cannibals promised not to trouble the other employees.
 
Four weeks later, the boss returns and says, "You're all working very hard, and I'm very satisfied with all of you; however, one of our janitors has disappeared. Do any of you know what happened to him?"
 
The cannibals disavow all knowledge of the missing janitor.
After the boss has left, the leader of the cannibals says to the others, "Which of you idiots ate the janitor?"
 
A hand raises hesitantly, to which the leader of the cannibals says, "You fool! For four weeks we've been eating Team Leaders and Project Managers so no one would notice anything, and you have to go and eat the janitor!"

If Dogs Sent Letters To God...
 
Dear God,   Why do humans smell the flowers, but seldom, if ever, smell one another?
 
Dear God,   When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it the same old story?
 
Dear God,   Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around? We dogs love a nice ride! Would it be so hard to rename the 'Chrysler Eagle' the 'Chrysler Beagle'?
 
Dear God,   If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him, is he still a bad dog?
 
Dear God,   We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals, whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent ID's, electromagnetic energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans understand?
 
Dear God,   More meatballs, less spaghetti, please.
 
Dear God,   When we get to the Pearly Gates, do we have to shake hands to get in?
 
Dear God,   Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize?
 
 
 
Dear God,   Let me give you a list of just some of the things I must remember to be a good dog:
 
I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it or after they throw it up;
 
I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell;
 
I will not munch on "leftovers" in the kitty litter box; although they are tasty, they are not food.
 
The diaper pail is not a cookie jar;
 
The sofa is not a face towel; neither are Mom and Dad's laps;
 
The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff;
 
My head does not belong in the refrigerator;
 
I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and registration;
 
I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet;
 
Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is not an acceptable way of saying 'hello';
 
I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under  the coffee table;
 
I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house;
 
I will not throw up in the car;
 
I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt across the carpet;
 
I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch when company is over;
 
The cat is not a squeaky toy; so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually not a good thing.
 
Dear God,  May I have my testicles back?

No diet will remove all the fat from your body because the brain is entirely fat.  Without a brain you might look good, but all you could do is run for public office.

Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife.  Tearfully she explained, "It's the druggist - he insulted me terribly this morning on the phone."
 
Immediately the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist and demand an apology.
 
Before he could say more than a word or two, the druggist told him, "Now, just a minute - listen to my side of it. This morning the alarm failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I went without breakfast and hurried out to the car, just to realize that I locked the house with both house and car keys inside. I had to break a window to get my keys. Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket.
 
Later, when I was about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire. When I finally got to the store there were a bunch of people waiting for me to open up. I got the store opened and started waiting on these people, and all the time the darn phone was ringing off the hook."
 
He took a deep breath and continued, "Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor! I got down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels - the phone was still ringing - when I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume bottles on it...half of them hit the floor and broke.  Meanwhile, the phone is still ringing with no let up, and I finally got back to answer it.
 
It was your wife - she wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer.......and believe me, Mister, I TOLD HER!"

 The Present...
 
It was the end of the school year, and a kindergarten teacher was receiving gifts from her pupils. The florist's son handed her a gift. She shook it, held it overhead, and said, "I bet I know what it is. Flowers."
 
"That's right!" the boy said, "But, how did you know?"
 
"Oh, just a wild guess," she said.
 
The next pupil was the sweet shop owner's daughter. The teacher held her gift overhead, shook it, and said, "I bet I can guess what it is. A box of sweets."
 
"That's right, but how did you know?" asked the girl.
 
"Oh, just a wild guess," said the teacher.
 
The next gift was from the son of the liquor storeowner. The teacher held he package overhead, but it was leaking. She touched a drop off the leakage with her finger and put it to her tongue. "Is it wine?" she asked.
 
"No," the boy replied, with some excitement.
 
The teacher repeated the process, tasting a larger drop of the leakage. "Is it champagne?" she asked.
 
"No," the boy replied, with more excitement.
 
The teacher took one more big taste before declaring, "I give up, what is it?"
 
With great glee, the boy replied, "It's a puppy! SURPRISE!"

Home remedies
 
1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don't panic. Simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat and presto! The blockage will be almost instantly removed.
 
2. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.
 
3. Avoid arguments with the missus about lifting the toilet seat by simply peeing in the sink.
 
4. High blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed for a while, thus reducing the pressure in your veins.
 
5. A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep when you hit the snooze button.
 
6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, then you will be afraid to cough.
 
7. Have a bad tooth ache? Hit your thumb with a hammer, then you will forget about the tooth ache.
 
Sometimes we Just Need to Remember What The Rules of Life Really Are...
 
A.  You need only two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.
 
B.  The five most essential words for a healthy, vital relationship are "I apologize" and "You are right."
 
C.  Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
 
D.  Never pass up an opportunity to potty.
 
E.  If You Woke up Breathing, Congratulations! You have another chance!
 
F.  And Finally... Be Really Good To Your Family and Friends. You never know when you are going to need them to empty your bedpan.
