| 889502 | 2010-05-30 23:23:00 | Yesterday my wife asked why I didn't do something useful with my time . She suggested I go down to the Seniors' Center and hang out with the guys . I did this and when I got home last night I told her that I had joined a Parachute Club . She said "are you nuts? You're almost 73 years old and you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?" She said "are you sure about this?" so I proudly showed her that I even got a membership card . She said to me, "You idiot, where are your glasses! This is membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club!" So, I'm in deep trouble again and don't know what I'm going to do! I signed up for three jumps a week! My life as a senior citizen is just not getting any easier!!!!!!!!! . ********************************* In South Sydney, a fire destroyed a multi-story block of flats . A Nigerian family of six email con artists lived on the first floor, and all six died in the fire . An Islamic group of seven Pakistani welfare cheats, all illegally in the country, lived on the second floor, and they, too, all perished in the fire . Six Vietnamese ex-cons lived on the 3rd floor and they too, died . Four Aboriginal families in the 2 flats on the 4th floor also perished . One European couple lived on the top floor . They survived . Relatives of the deceased and local do-gooders were furious . They flew into Sydney and quickly demanded a meeting with the fire chief . On camera, they loudly demanded to know why the Nigerians, Muslims, Vietnamese and Aboriginals all died in the fire and only the European couple survived . The fire chief quietly replied, "They were both at work . " ********************************* Charlie was installing a new door and found that one of the hinges was missing, so he asked his wife Mary if she would go to Bunnings and pick up a new hinge . Mary went to the local Bunnings branch and while she was waiting for the plumbing department supervisor to finish serving a customer, her eye was caught by a beautiful bathroom tap set . When the supervisor was finished, Mary asked him, "How much is that gold tap set?" The supervisor replied, "That's a real gold plated tap set and the price is $500 . 00 . Mary exclaimed, "My goodness, that is a very expensive set . It's certainly out of my price bracket . " She then proceeded to describe the hinge that Charlie had sent her to buy . The supervisor said that he had them in stock and went into the storeroom to get one . From the storeroom the supervisor yelled . "Hey sweetheart, do you wanna screw for this hinge?" Mary thought for a moment and then shouted back, "No, but I will for the tap set . " This is why you can't send a woman to Bunnings . . . . . . ********************************* If you ever feel a little bit stupid, just dig this up and read it again; you'll begin to think you're a genius .
