pam Posted November 17, 2008 Report Posted November 17, 2008 (edited) Only in UtahA man was being very closely tailgated by a woman on Foothill Boulevard in Salt Lake City.Suddenly, the light turned yellow just in front of him.He did the right thing, stopping at the intersection crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.The tailgating woman slammed on the brakes and really leaned on the horn. She opened her window, stuck her hand out and made that familiar gesture, all the while screaming in frustration as she missed her chance to get through the intersection before the light had turned red. As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tapping sound on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious SLC Police Officer. He ordered her to exit her car with her hands up. He took her to the Police Station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a cell.After a couple of hours another policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the Arresting Officer was waiting with all her personal effects. He said, 'I'm very sorry for the mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping the guy off in front of you,and cussing a blue streak at him.I also noticed the 'Choose the Right' license plate holder, the 'Families are Forever' bumper sticker, the 'Follow Me to Sunday School' bumpersticker, and the chrome-plated Angel Moroni emblem on the trunk.'Naturally, I assumed you had stolen the car.'

So she goes back home and gets a total makeover and goes to the store and says, "Can I buy this television?" the clerk says "NO! We don't allow blondes in the store!" The blonde asks "How did you know I was a blonde?" "Because that's not a tv; it's a microwave!" Quote

Did you manage to live a well-planned life?" "Oh yes," said her friend. "My first marriage was to a millionaire; my second marriage was to an actor; my third marriage was to a preacher; and now I'm married to an undertaker." Her friend asked, "What do those marriages have to do with a well-planned life?" "One for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go." Quote

Truegrits Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 Three blondes were sitting by the side of a river holding fishing poles with the lines in the water. A game warden came up behind them, tapped one on the shoulder and said, "Excuse me, ladies, I'd like to see your fishing licenses." "We don't have any." replied the first blonde."Well, if you're going to fish," replied the officer "you need fishing licenses." "But officer," replied the second blonde, "we aren't fishing. We all have magnets at the end of our lines, and we're collecting debris off the bottom of the river." The warden lifted up all the lines and, sure enough, there were magnets tied on the end of each line. "Well, I know of no law against it," said the warden, "take all the debris you want." And with that, he left. As soon as he was out of sight, the three blondes started laughing hysterically."What a dumb cop," the second blonde said to the other two, "doesn't he know that there are steelhead trout in this river?!"

He spoke with the wisdom that can only come from experience, like a guy who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at high schools about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it. 4. She grew on him like she was a colony of E. coli and he was room-temperature Canadian beef. 5. She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up. 6.

From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie, surreal quality, like when you're on vacation in another city and Jeopardy comes on at 7:00 p.m. instead of 7:30. 12. Her hair glistened in the rain like a nose hair after a sneeze. 13. The hailstones leaped from the pavement, just like maggots when you fry them in hot grease. 14. Long separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the grassy field toward each other like two freight trains, one having left Cleveland at 6:36 p.m. traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19 p.m. at a speed of 35 mph. 15.

The ballerina rose gracefully en pointe and extended one slender leg behind her, like a dog at a fire hydrant. 24. It was an American tradition, like fathers chasing kids around with power tools. 25. He was deeply in love. When she spoke, he thought he heard bells, as if she were a garbage truck backing up. 26. She was as easy as the TV Guide crossword. 27. Her eyes were like limpid pools, only they had forgotten to put in any pH cleanser. 28. She walked into my office like a centipede with 98 missing legs. 29.

From So, You're a BYU Football Fan by Ryan Stoker We had recently moved to a new town and I was not familiar with the streets. While driving to the grocery store with my three children, I absently said out loud, "oops I took the wrong road." My 5 year old Rebekah asked me if we should pray to Heavenly Father for help. Yes, was my reply as I looked for a place to turn around. "Dear Heavenly Father," she began, "Sorry to wake you from your nap but could you help mommy find the right road?" At the conclusion I asked her if Heavenly Father was napping and she confidently replied. "Yes he has a big job and everybody needs a nap" --Melanie Killman - Castleton Ontario Canada  Recently a new congregation was formed from two nearby wards.

We had been invited to have Christmas dinner with Brother and Sister McDonald and their son and we agreed. One Sunday our then 6 year old son was asked by his Primary teacher how our family was going to spend Chrismas and he responded "We're going to McDonalds's" (meaning the fast food restaurant). Well, The Primary teacher told our very kind-hearted and concerned Bishop who in turn spoke to us. "We hear to will be having fast food on Christmas day" He said softly "We will ensure that you will have a turkey dinner.". Confused, we asked what he was talking about and he relaid the conversation between the primary teacher and our 6 year old. Laughing hard we managed to explain "We're going to the McDonald's home, Brother and Sister McDonald, NOT the restaurant!". We still chuckle about the "Hamburger Christmas"! --Candice Hughes - Calgary, Alberta, CanadaAfter nursery one Sunday I saw my 3 year-old's handout. It was about trying to be like Jesus. I asked him how he could be good like Jesus. He thought for a moment and then responded, "Not be like bad Jesus." Fortunately there is not a bad Jesus, but we couldn't help but laugh at his answer. --Suzy Baller - Orem, Utah, USA Quote

The first guy says to the second, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping service in Mexico." The second guy thinks this is a great idea, so the two pool their money and buy everything they'll need - a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc. They travel to Mexico and begin to set up on the square. As they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more and more people gather to watch them at work. The first guy jumps.

Unfortunately, the second guy isn't able catch him, so he falls again, bounces, and then comes back up. This time, he is bruised and bleeding. Again, the second guy misses him.

On the next attempt, the second guy finally catches him and pulls him in. "What happened?" he asks. "Was the cord too long?" The first guy says, "No, the cord was fine, but tell me ... what the heck is a 'piñata'?" Quote
Truegrits Posted November 26, 2008 Report Posted November 26, 2008 There was a man who had worked all of his life and had saved all of his money. He was a real miser when it came to his money. He loved money more than just about anything, and just before he died, he said to his wife, "Now listen, when I die, I want you to take all my money and place it in the casket with me. I want to take my money to the afterlife." So he got his wife to promise him with all her heart that when he died, she would put all the money in the casket with him. Well, one day he died. He was stretched out in the casket, the wife was sitting there in black next to her closest friend. When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers were ready to close the casket, the wife said "Wait just a minute!" She had a shoe box with her, and she placed it in the casket. Then the undertakers locked the casket down and rolled it away. Her friend said, "I hope you weren't crazy enough to put all that money in the casket." She said, "Yes, I promised. I'm a good christian, I can't lie. I promised him that I was going to put that money in that casket with him." "You mean to tell me you put every cent of his money in the casket with him?" "I sure did, " said the wife. "I got it all together, put it into my account and I wrote him a check." Quote

The person next to him answered, "Everything is big in Texas." When he finally arrived in Texas, he decided to visit a bar. Upon arriving in the bar, he ordered a beer and got a mug placed between his hands. He exclaimed, "Wow these mugs are big!" The bartender replied, "Everything is big in Texas." After a couple of beers, the blind man asked the bartender where the bathroom was located. The bartender replied, "Second door to the right." The blind man headed for the bathroom, but accidentally tripped over and skipped the second door. Instead, he entered the third door, which lead to the swimming pool and fell into the pool by accident. Scared to death, the blind man started shouting, "Don't flush, don't flush!" Quote

pam Posted December 1, 2008 Report Posted December 1, 2008 Four expectant fathers were in a Minneapolis hospital waiting room, while their wives were in labor. The nurse arrived and announced to the first man, "Congratulations sir, you're the father of twins." "What a coincidence!" the man said with some obvious pride. "I work for the Minnesota Twins baseball team." The nurse returned in a little while and turned to the second man, "You, sir, are the father of triplets." "Wow, that's really an incredible coincidence " he answered. "I work for the 3M Corporation. My buddies at work will never let me live this one down." An hour later, while the other two men were passing cigars around, the nurse came back. This time, she turned to the 3rd man, who had been quiet in the corner. She announced that his wife had just given birth to quadruplets. Stunned, he barely could reply. "Don't tell me another coincidence?" asked the nurse. After finally regaining his composure, he said "I don't believe it, I work for the Four Seasons Hotel." After hearing this, everybody's attention turned to the 4th guy, who had just fainted, flat out on the floor. The nurse rushed to his side and, after some time, he slowly gained back his consciousness. When he was finally able to speak, everyone could hear him whispering repeatedly the same phrase over and over again. "I should have never taken that job at 7-Up!" Quote
Truegrits Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 An atheist was walking through the woods. "What majestic trees"! "What powerful rivers"! "What beautiful animals"! He said to himself. As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him. He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him. He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder & saw that the bear was closing in on him. He looked over his shoulder again, & the bear was even closer. He tripped & fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw & raising his right paw to strike him. At that instant the Atheist cried out, "Oh my God!" Time Stopped. The bear froze. The forest was still. As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky. "You deny my existence for all these years, teach others I don't exist and even credit creation to cosmic accident." "Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer"? The atheist looked directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask You to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps You could make the BEAR a Christian"? "Very Well," said the Voice. The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head & spoke: "Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty through Christ our Lord, Amen." Quote

Then he went and jumped off the cliff to his death.The Broncos fan didn't want to be outdone so he yelled, "This is for the Broncos," and plunged off the cliff headfirst to his death.The Chargers fan raised both of his hands and cried, "This is for everyone!" He then shoved the Patriots fan off. Quote

What makes you think you can stereotype women that way? What does the color of a person's hair have to do with her worth as a human being? It's guys like you who keep women like me from being respected at work and in the community and from reaching our full potential as a person, because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against, not only blondes, but women in general...and all in the name of humor!'' The ventriloquist is embarrassed and begins to apologize, when the blonde yells, ''You stay out of this, mister! I'm talking to that little jerk on your knee!'' Quote
