Why did the Pilgrims' have trouble keeping their pants from falling down?

Two brooms were hanging in the closet and after a while they got to know each other so well, they decided to get married.

One broom was, of course, the bride broom, the other the groom broom.

The bride broom looked very beautiful in her white dress. The groom broom was handsome and suave in his tuxedo. The wedding was lovely.

After the wedding, at the wedding dinner, the bride broom leaned over and said to the groom broom, 'I think I am going to have a little whisk broom!'

'Impossible!' said the groom broom


'We haven't even swept together!'

THE JOKES ON US!!!

I was going to pontificate on several issues today, but I was reminded of something so funny and horrific at the same time, I have decided this is the only message of the day.

What was the reason given for developing the Department of Energy during the Carter administration?

We have spent multi billions of dollars in support of this agency and I am willing to bet not one person who reads this will remember the reason given. It was very simple.

THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY WAS INSTITUTED TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

NOTE: In 2008 the Budget for this department is now at 24.2 billion a year. They have 16,000 federal employees and approximately 100,000 contract employees.

WHAT DO THEY DO ANYWAY!

What's your point? They are Government Employees aren't they? That would be an oxymoran to expect them to work too?

One day a florist goes to a barber for a haircut.
After the cut he asks about his bill and the barber replies,
'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The florist is pleased and leaves the shop.

When the barber goes to open his shop the next morning there is a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.

Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the
barber again replies, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.'
The cop is happy and leaves the shop.

The next morning when the barber goes to open up there is a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.

Later that day, a college professor comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replies, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.'
The professor is very happy and leaves the shop.

The next morning when the barber opens his shop, there is a 'thank you' card and a dozen different books, such as 'How to Improve Your Business' and 'Becoming More Successful.'

Then, a Congressman comes in for a haircut, and when he goes to pay his bill the barber again replies, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.'
The Congressman is very happy and leaves the shop.

The next morning when the barber goes to open up, there are a dozen congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.

Top 10 reasons ~~~SENIORS~~~ should Not trick or treat

10. You get winded from knocking on the door.

9. You have to have another kid chew the candy for you.

8. You ask for high fibre candy only.

7. When someone drops a candy bar in your bag, you lose your Balance and fall over.

6. People say: 'Great Boris Karloff Mask,' And you're not wearing a mask.

5. When the door opens you yell, 'Trick or '.....And can't remember the rest.

4. By the end of the night, you have a bag full of restraining orders.

3. You have to carefully choose a costume that won't dislodge your hairpiece.

2. You're the only Power Ranger in the neighbourhood with a walker.

And the number one reason Seniors should not go Trick Or Treating...

1. You keep having to go home to potty

For Trade: One 13 year old who knows everything.

Except:
How to cook.
How to clean.
How to manage money.
How to wipe up spilled water.
How to drive.
How to write a check.
How to answer a phone.
How to do math.
How to be polite.
How gas is paid for.
How cell phone bills are paid.
How to work the can opener.
How to sweep, dust or vacuum.
How to make a bed.
How to do laundry.
How dictatorships work.
How to stop talking.
How to get a job.
How important it is to finish high school.
How the world actually works.

She can text. And she can argue. What else does she *possibly* need to
know in life??

I'd like to trade her in. For a puppy.

Hey wait a minute. I was a government worker for 18 years and I worked my rear end off.
