| 1384541 | 2014-09-21 22:13:00 | . . 2014 THREAT-ALERTS IN EUROPE The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent events in involving Isis and have therefore raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." The English have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out. As a further indication of concern, terrorists were last week re-categorised from "Tiresome" to "A Bloody Nuisance." This is a significant move, as the last time the British issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada. Following failure of the Indepence Vote, the Scots have raised their threat level from "Pissed Off" to "Let's get the Bastards." They don't have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years. The French government announced yesterday that, as a result of student unrest, it has raised its terror-alert level from "Run" to "Hide." The only two higher levels in France are "Collaborate" and "Surrender." The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France 's white flag factory, effectively paralysing the country's entire military capability. Italy has increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing." Only two more levels remain: "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides." The Germans have increased their alert state from "Disdainful Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs." They also have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbour" and "Lose." Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels. The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish Navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish Navy. Australia, also alert to Isis, meanwhile has raised its security level from "No worries" to "She'll be right, Mate." Two more escalation levels remain: "Crikey! I think we'll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!" and "The barbie is cancelled." So far no situation has ever warranted use of the final escalation level. And as a final thought - Greece is collapsing, the Iranians are getting aggressive, and Rome is in disarray.

BUMP... BUMP... Walking faster, he looks back and through the fog he makes out the image of an upright casket banging its way down the middle of the street toward him. BUMP... BUMP... BUMP... Terrified, the man begins to run toward his home, the casket bouncing quickly behind him FASTER... FASTER... BUMP... BUMP... BUMP... He runs up to his door, fumbles with his keys, opens the door, rushes in, slams and locks the door behind him. However, the casket crashes through his door, with the lid of the casket clapping clappity- BUMP... clappity- BUMP... clappity- BUMP... The terrified man rushes upstairs to the bathroom and locks himself in. His heart is pounding; his head is reeling; his breath is coming in sobbing gasps. With a loud CRASH the casket breaks down the door, bumping and clapping toward him. The man screams and reaches for something, anything, but all he can find is a bottle of cough syrup! Desperate, he throws the cough syrup at the casket... and, (hopefully you're ready for this!!!) .The coffin stops ********************************* Recently, the Psychic Hotline and Psychic Friends Network have launched hotlines for frogs. Here is the story of one frog and his discussion with his psychic. A frog telephones the Psychic Hotline and is told, "You are going to meet a beautiful young girl who will want to know everything about you." The frog says, "This is great! Will I meet her at a party... or what?" "No," says the psychic. "Next semester in her biology class." Cheers Billy 8-{) :) |

| 1384544 | 2014-09-22 01:04:00 | Absolutely luuuurve the 2014 Threats joke! Reminds me of Albino Blacksheep's parody - until Google altered it's algorithms, if you typed in "French Military Victories", it cam up with "Did you mean French Military Defeats?" Then, by clicking on the "I'm Feeling Lucky" link it would take you to this hilarious page (www.albinoblacksheep.com)! | Greg (193) | ||
