Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 There were some counterfeiters who were making bad money. Not only was it bad, but it was particularly bad in as they had screwed up and made $15 dollar bills instead of $10′s or $20’s. But the art was perfect. They looked so real they just couldn’t bear to throw them away. They decided to take them way out into the country and pass them off there where the people are a bit slow. They drove way out away from the city and found a small gas station/convenience store. They went in, and an old man was working behind the cash register. “Can you give me change for this?” The man looked at it and just stood there. “Well, are you going to give me change, or not?” “I can give you change, but I don’t know just what you want. I can give you five Threes, two Fours and a Seven, or a Three and a Twelve.” 5 Quote

Blackwater 53393 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Having thought about this, I wonder what the ballistics, of say a hot .45 Colt 250gr round fired in the vacuum and absence of any discernible gravity of space, from an average 7.5” Blackhawk would be!! Cogitate on that for a spell!😜 1 1 Quote

But then I rewatched the cartoon. It appeared that Marvin was using that as the igniter for whatever huge gun the planet buster was. And Bugs stole it so Marvin could not fire his cannon. https://i.pinimg.com/736x/aa/26/fe/aa26feceac9243b45852a4b1e16534a2--merrie-melodies-looney-tunes.jpg 1 1 Quote

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Jacob, a Russian Jew, was eventually allowed to emigrate to Israel. At Moscow airport, a customs inspector found a statue of Lenin in his luggage and asked: "What is this?" “Bad question, comrade,” replied Jacob. "You should have asked, who is this? This is Comrade Lenin. He laid the foundations of socialism and created the future prosperity of the Russian people. I take it with me in memory of our great hero." The Russian customs officer let him go. At Tel Aviv airport, an Israeli customs officer asked Jacob: "What is this?“ "Wrong question, sir. You should ask who is it? It was Lenin, the bastard who pushed me, a Jew, to leave Russia in shame. I take this statue as a reminder to curse him every day." The Israeli official let him go. In his new home in Tel Aviv, Jacob placed the statue on a table. The next evening he invited friends and relatives to dinner. Spotting the statue, one of his cousins asked: "Who is it"? “Wrong question. You should have asked, what is it? This is five kilograms of solid gold that I managed to bring back from Russia without having to pay customs duties or taxes." The moral: Politics is when you can tell the same story in different ways to fool different people...... 1 6 1 Quote
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 28 Posted January 28 There were two women who were complete strangers. They lived in different cities, they had never met, and had no friends or acquaintances in common. However, they had e-mail addresses that were nearly identical - just off by one letter. The husband of the first woman (Mrs. Smith) had just left on a business trip to Florida. After Mr. Smith had finished his business, Mrs. Smith was going to take a flight down and meet him a few days later. The second woman (Mrs. Jones) was still grieving for her husband who had died a week earlier. Mr. Smith arrives in Florida and checks into his hotel. He gets on his laptop and writes his wife an e-mail to let her know he’s arrived safely. He carelessly mistypes the e-mail address, sending the message to Mrs. Jones. Mrs. Jones sits at her computer and starts reading her e-mails. Her daughter, in another room, hears her mother scream and runs in to find Mrs. Jones has fainted. Looking at the screen, she sees an open e-mail that reads: My Darling Wife, I just arrived here and have settled in. I am eagerly looking forward to your arrival on Wednesday. Your loving husband. P.S. It sure is hot down here. 6 Quote

DocWard Posted January 31 Posted January 31 You know you're having a bad day when your phone rings and you look at the Caller ID and see: Yes, that's my phone. I had forgotten I had taken a picture of it. A veteran had it set as her ID and forgotten about it, until I mentioned it! 1 5 Quote

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 31 Posted January 31 Pat walks into a pub and sees his buddy Mick sitting there nursing a beer, looking real sad. He asks Mick, “What's wrong?” Mick looks at him for a bit and says “Me wife ran off with me best friend.” Pat is shocked… “What are you saying, Mick? I am your best friend.” Mick looks at him for a few seconds, and quietly mumbles “Not any more!” 1 3 Quote
