The problems with old age

Desmond, Gary and Michael - all gentlemen of age 80 plus are enjoying each others company in a park in Washington DC.

Desmond brings up the subject of life at their age, and says, "It's a wretched life. I am at an age where I can afford exotic food. You all know what a foodie I am. But the doctor will allow me only boiled vegetables."

Gary has his own tale of woes. He says, "I sure agree with Desmond. When I come to a point in my life where I can afford the best wines, what do I have? A bad liver. It sucks."

Michael joins the cribbing club and says, "I know the feeling folks. Last night, I woke up the missus at 3 am and asked if she would like to do it. She yelled at me asking me if I was in my senses cos we had just finished doing it for the 2nd time last night."

There was a pause, and then Desmond asked, "So, what is the problem?"

Michael replied, "Can't you see guys? I am losing my memory!"

Cherrapunji

Janco, a tourist from China visited Cherrapunji in India. Janco was unaware of the fact that Cherrapunji is one of the wettest places on earth. It was raining the day Janco arrived. It rained the next day and the day after that. She was there for almost a week and there was not a day without rain.

Sipping a cup of hot tea at a local joint, she saw a kid and asked him, "Hello, does it ever stop raining in this town?"

The little fellow replied, "How would I know? I am only 5."

Fear of Freddie

Freddie and Mary were married for many years but all they did was fight. They would not agree on anything and would quarrel day in and day out. In fact, the neighbours had all become tired of this constant bickering and fighting. One thing they often heard during these arguments was the man's hiss-like warning saying, "When I am dead, I am going to dig up and walk out of my grave to give you nightmares all your life."

The neighbours thought Freddie practiced voodoo. There were strange happenings in the small town like strays getting hurt, and they thought Freddie was responsible.

One night, Freddie suddenly died under mysterious circumstances. After the funeral, Mary headed for the local pub and had the time of her life.

She partied every night and would come home very late.

Some of her neighbours asked her, "Aren't you tensed about what Freddie used to repeatedly tell you. With all the voodoo practice he indulged in, and his threat that he would dig up and walk out of his grave to stalk you, aren't you scared?"

Mary replied, "Let him dig all he wants. I buried the joker upside down."

The village fools

Gerald and Tony were the village fools who were made fun of all the time.

They were riding together on their bicycles, when Gerald stopped abruptly, got off his bicycle and began to let air out of the tyres.

Tony said to him, "What the hell are you doing?"

Gerald replied, "I wanted my seat to be low as I have to stretch too much while pedaling."

Tony could not stand such display of stupidity. He got off his bicycle, loosened his seat and turned it in the opposite direction.

Now, it was Gerald who was surprised. He asked, "And what are you doing?"

Tony replied, "Listen buddy, if you will continue doing such idiotic things, I am going back home."

Buffalo on the road

Jerry was driving his car in the countryside, when a very fat woman on a scooter zipped past him.

Jerry yelled, "Hey! Buffalo!"

The fat woman turned her head and yelled back, "You idiotic moron!"

The next thing she knew was that she was lying flat on on road and her scooter lay upside down. She realized she had an accident. It was a buffalo crossing the road that Jerry was warning her about!

Can't smoke here

Mike buys a pack of cigarettes from a store and proceeds to light a cigarette.

The store-keeper yells, "Hey, you can't smoke in here!"

Mike says, "But I bought it from your store."

The store-keeper shoots back, "Oh really, smart fella! We also sell condoms here, that does not imply that you can start using them here."

Encounters with the supernatural

It was a seminar on the existence of the supernatural and people who had encountered it.

The speaker, Dr. Reiss, posed a question before the audience, "Has anyone here seen a spirit?"

Almost everyone raised their hands. Dr. Reiss then asked, "Has anyone had a conversation with a spirit?"

A number of people raised their hands. Dr. Reiss asked next, "Has anyone here touched a spirit?"


A few people raised their hands. Dr. Reiss then asked, "Has anyone made love to a spirit?"

An old man at the back raised his hand. Dr. Reiss tried to figure out who had said that, and repeated his question, "Do you mean you really made love with a spirit?"

 The old fellow replied, "Oh, Guess I didn't hear you right the first time. I thought you said 'egret.'"
