orrinjelo Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the archangel, found him, resting on the seventh day.. He inquired, "Where have you been?" God smiled deeply and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds, "Look, Michael.. Look what I've made." Archangel Michael looked puzzled, and said, "What is it?" "It's a planet," replied God, and I've put life on it… I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place to test Balance." "Balance?" inquired Michael, "I'm still confused." God explained, pointing to different parts of earth. "For example, northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while southern Europe is going to be poor. Over here I've placed a continent of white people, and over there is a continent of black people. Balance in all things." God continued pointing to different countries. "This one will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in ice." The Archangel , impressed by God's work, then pointed to a land area and said, "What's that one?" "That’s the State of Texas , the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, forests, hills, beaches and plains. The people from the State of Texas are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, and humorous, and they are going to travel the world. They will be extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace, and producers of good things." Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what about balance, God? You said there would be balance.." God smiled, "There’s Washington DC . Wait till you see the idiots I put there." Quote
slamjet Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 There was a High Priest who began to have heart problems while in High Priest group meeting. Alarmed, the group leader called for the paramedics. The paramedics came, check out the priesthood holder with the heart problem and diagnosed it as indigestion. They gave him some tums and released him. On the way out, the Bishop stopped the paramedics and asked them "is everything alright? To which the paramedics responded "Everything is fine, the patients are getting along well." "Patients?" the Bishop asked. "Patients" the paramedic responded. "We defibrillated a couple of guys on the way up the isle to the original call." Bada-BOOM! Yea, it's me again, but don't think I'm not using this one if I ever become a High Priest. Quote

pam Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 My Kind of Teacher A former Sergeant , having served his time with the Marine Corps, took a new job as a school teacher, but just before the school year started he injured his back. He was required to wear a plaster cast around the upper part of his body.Fortunately, the cast fit under his shirt and wasn't noticeable. On the first day of class, he found himself assigned to the toughest students in the school. The smart-alec punks, having already heard the new teacher was a former Marine, were leery of him and decided to see how tough he really was, before trying any pranks. Walking confidently into the rowdy classroom, the new teacher opened the window wide and sat down at his desk. When a strong breeze made his tie flap, he picked up a stapler and promptly stapled the tie to his chest. Dead silence ... He had no trouble with discipline that year. Quote

Truegrits Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 A man didn't like his wife's cat and decided to get rid of the animal one day by driving it a few blocks from his home and leaving it at the park. As he was getting home, the cat was walking up the driveway. The next day he decided to drive the cat further away. He put the beast out and headed home. Driving back up his driveway, there was the cat! The man kept taking the cat further and further and the cat would always beat him home. At last he decided to drive a long, long way out of town, down a winding path of barely-used roads. Hours later the man called home to his wife: "Honey, is the cat there?" "Yes," the wife answered, "why do you ask?" Frustrated, the man replied, "Put him on the phone, I'm lost and need directions." Quote

KrazyKay Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 I'm sure everyone has heard this one, but it is one of my favorites.A Minnesota couple decided to vacation to Florida during the winter. They planned to stay at the very same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier. Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday. His wife would fly down the following day.The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an e-mail to his wife. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her e-mail address, and without realizing his error, he sent the e-mail. Meanwhile.....somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her husband's funeral. He was a minister of many years who was called home to glory following a sudden heart attack. The widow decided to check her e-mail, expecting messages from relatives and friends. After reading the first message, she fainted. The widow's son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read: To: My Loving WifeSubject: I've ArrivedDate: 16 May 2003I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you are allowed to send e-mails to your loved ones. I've just arrived and have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is not as uneventful as mine was.P.S. Sure is hot down here! Quote

KrazyKay Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 Maybe these math jokes will help me with writing these math proofs, lol. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The math professor just accepted a new position at a university in another city and has to move. He and his wife pack all their belongings into cardboard boxes and have them shipped off to their new home. To sort out some family matters, the wife stays behind for a few more days while her husband has already left for their new residence. The boxes arrive when the wife still hasn't rejoined her husband. When they talk on the phone in the evening, she asks him to count the boxes, just to make sure the movers didn't loose any of them. "Thirty nine boxes altogether", says the prof on the phone. "That can't be", the wife exclaims. "The movers picked up forty boxes at our old place." The prof counts once again, but again his count only reaches 39. The next morning, the wife calls the moving company and complains. The company promises to check; a few hours later, someone calls back and reports that all forty boxes did arrive. In the evening, when the prof and his wife are on the phone again, she asks: "I don't understand it. When you count, you get 39, and when they do, they get 40. That's more than strange..." "Well", the prof says. "This is a cordless phone, so you can stay on the line and count with me: zero, one, two, three,..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Teacher: Now class, whatever I ask, I want you to all answer at once. How much is six plus 4? Class: At once! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If there are ten cats in a boat and one jumps out, how many are left? None, they were all copycats! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The math professor's six-year-old son knocks at the door of his father's study. "Daddy", he says. "I need help with a math problem I couldn't do at school." "Sure", the father says and smiles. "Just tell me what's bothering you." "Well, it's a really hard problem: There are four ducks swimming in a pond, when two more ducks come and join them. How many ducks are now swimming in the pond?" The professor stares at his son with disbelief: "You couldn't do that?! All you need to know is that 4 + 2 = 6!" "Do you think, I'm stupid?! Of course, I know that 4 + 2 = 6. But what does this have to do with ducks!?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "What is Pi?" A mathematician: "Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter." A computer programmer: "Pi is 3.141592653589 in double precision." A physicist: "Pi is 3.14159 plus or minus 0.000005." An engineer: "Pi is about 22/7." A nutritionist: "Pie is a healthy and delicious dessert!" Quote
Truegrits Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 A magician was performing on a cruise ship. The pay was okay, but therewas just one problem: The captain's parrot, who saw the shows every week, knewthe tricks. In the middle of the show, the parrot would squawk: "Look, it's not the same hat... he's hiding the flowers under the table... hey, why are all the cards the Ace of Spades?" The magician couldn't do anything because it was the captain's parrot. One day the ship sank and the magician found himself clinging to a piece of wood... with the parrot perched on the other end. They staredat each other silently for several hours. Fianlly the parrot squawked: "Okay, I give up. What did you do with theboat?" Quote

Kindan Posted July 22, 2011 Report Posted July 22, 2011 You know the thing about making a decision and praying, and if the thing is wrong you get a stupor of thought and forget the thing was wrong? Well, here is a funny story (fictional - but I hope funny). A man thought it would be a good idea to remember what was wrong. He couldn't understand why God would answer questions this way. "I want to remember the wrong thing to make sure I don't do it," he said. So he wrote down his decision on a piece of paper before he prayed. He placed the paper face down on his bed while he knelt. Then he prayed and got the stupor of thought. He couldn't remember at all what he was praying about. "A Ha! I have it on my paper though!" he said to himself. He took the paper and turned it over. In elegant handwriting it said: "This page intentionally left blank." Quote
