Typhoon Rips Through Cemetery; Hundreds Dead

Did I read that right?

**************************************


A woman and her boyfriend are out having a few drinks . While they're sitting there having a good time together she starts talking about this really great new drink . The more she talks about it, the more excited she gets, and starts trying to talk her boyfriend into having one . After a while he gives in and lets her order the drink for him .

The bartender brings the drink and puts the following on the bar: - A saltshaker, a shot of Baileys, and a shot of lime juice .

The boyfriend looks at the items quizzically and the woman explains: "First you put a bit of the salt on your tongue, next you drink the shot of Baileys and hold it in you mouth, and finally you drink the lime juice . "

So, the boyfriend, trying to go along and please her, goes for it . He puts the salt on his tongue - salty, but OK . He drinks the shot of Baileys, smooth, rich, cool, very pleasant . He thinks - this is OK .

Finally he picks up the lime juice and drinks it

. . . In one second the sharp lime taste hits . . .

. . . At two seconds the Baileys curdles

. . . At three seconds the salty curdled bitter taste hits .

This triggers his gag reflex but being manly, and not wanting to disappoint his girlfriend, he swallows the now nasty drink .

When he finally chokes it down he turns to his girlfriend, and says, "Jesus, what do you call that drink?"

She smiles sweetly at him and says, "BJ Revenge" .

*********************************


A guy asked a girl in a library; “Do you mind if I sit beside you”?

The girl answered with a loud voice;

NO! I DO NOT WANT TO SPEND THE NIGHT WITH YOU!!!

All the students in the library started staring at the guy and he was embarrassed .

After a couple of minutes, the girl walked quietly to the guy’s table and she told him
“I study psychology and I know what a man is thinking, I guess you felt embarrassed right?”

The guy responded with a loud voice:

"$200 JUST FOR ONE NIGHT!? THAT’S TOO MUCH!!!

All the people in the library looked at the girl in shock, and the guy whispered in her ear;
“I study Law, and I know how to make someone feel guilty"

Golf in the Bedroom
Rules of Play
Each player shall provide his own equipment - normally one club and
two balls.
Play on a course must be approved by the owner of the hole.
Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in the hole and
keep the balls out of the
hole.
For the most effective play, the club owner should have a firm shaft.
Course owners are
permitted to check shaft stiffness before play begins.
Course owners reserve the right to restrict club length to avoid
damage to the hole.
The object of the game is to take as many strokes as necessary until
the course owner is
satisfied that the play is complete. Failure to do so may result in
denied permission to play
the course again.
It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole immediately upon
arrival at the course.
The experienced players will normally take time to admire the entire
course, with special
attention to well formed bunkers.
Players are encouraged not to mention other courses they have played,
or are currently
playing, to the owner of the course being played. Upset owners have
been known to
damage a player's equipment for this reason.
Players are encouraged to bring proper rain gear for their own
protection.
Players should assure themselves that their match has been properly
scheduled, particularly
when a new course is being played for the first time. Previous players
have been known to
become irate if they discover someone else playing on what they
considered to be a private
course.
Players should not assume a course is in shape for play at all times.
Some players may be
embarrassed if they find the course to be temporarily under repair.
Players are advised to be
extremely tactful in this situation. More advanced players will find
alternate means of play
at this time.
Players are advised to obtain the course owner's permission before
attempting to play the
back nine.
Slow play is encouraged. However, players should be prepared to
proceed at a quicker
pace, at least temporarily, at the course owner's request.
It is considered outstanding performance, time permitting, to play the
same course several
times in one month.

1352500 2013-09-03 03:47:00 9 . Why were the Indians the US first? They had reservations .

A touch of historical inaccuracy there I think .

The Indians didn't get reservations until after they'd been screwed, and by then it was too late .

They were also there long before the palefaces arrived, and the US was a long time coming after that .

They seem to be making a comeback of some significance in recent years though, won't be long before the palefaces need reservations!

(Actually they already have them, they are called cities . . . . . . )

History is an interesting subject . . . . . . . . . . it has a habit of repeating itself repeating itself!
