Subdeacon Joe Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 this is too good to not share A Brit lands in Sydney, and is waiting at passport control. His turn comes and he steps to the agent. The agent asks his name, and the Brit gives it. The agent asks his occupation, and the Brit gives it. The agent asks "have you ever been convicted of a crime?" The Brit responds "right, so that's still a requirement?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Creek Law Dog Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Back in the 60's I was a correction officer with the Alberta Provincial Gaols. (Old English) A lot of people pronounce it "Goal" because they can't get their brain around the a and the o being in that order. Most people spell it the American way "Jail", but if you drive by a provincial gaol, that is the way it is spelled on the sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which reminds me of the elderly American gentleman who was visiting France. When he got up to the window at Customs, the Customs agent asked for his passport, so he dug it out. The Customs agent got snotty with him about not having his travel documents out and ready, so he pointed out that the last time he came to France, he didn't have to go through all of that rigmarole. The Customs agent asked just when he had visited France that he hadn't had to go through Customs and the American gentleman told him, "June, 1944. We came in through Normandy."

punxsutawneypete Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Don Rickles was guest hosting the Tonight Show, and went out into the audience.. In the audience were some young Japanese tourists who didn't speak much English. Of course, Rickles couldn't resist and the place broke up when he said to one of them, "Three years on account of your father." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
