Once upon a time, a little boy lived by a river. It was a very boring river because the land was so flat there.

One day, the boy was eating lunch by the river, munching on a kosher pickle. All of the sudden, an idea comes to him and he pitches the pickle into the river. Instantly, the river is transformed into a majestic waterfall!

People came from miles around to witness the miracle. After seeing the beautiful waterfall, they turned to the little boy. "How," they asked, "how did you know to toss the kosher pickle into the river?" The little boy smiled and answered, "I just thought of that old adage--you know, that dill waters run steep!"

It was slightly before Thanksgiving. The trip went reasonably well, and this guy was ready to go back. The airport, on the other end, had turned a tacky red and green, and loudspeakers blared annoying elevator renditions of cherished Christmas carols.

Being someone who took Christmas very seriously, and being slightly tired, he was not in a particularly good mood.

Going to check in his luggage (which, for some reason, had become one suitcase with entirely new clothes), he saw hanging mistletoe. Not real mistletoe, but very cheap plastic with red paint on some of the rounder parts and green paint on some of the flatter and pointier parts, that could be taken for mistletoe only in a very Picasso sort of way.

With a considerable degree of irritation and nowhere else to vent it, he said to the attendant, "Even if I were not married, I would not want to kiss you under such a ghastly mockery of mistletoe."

"Sir, look more closely at where the mistletoe is."

"Ok, I see that it's above the luggage scale, which is the place you'd have to step forward for a kiss."

"That's not why it's there."

"Ok, I give up. Why is it there?"

"It's there so you can kiss your luggage goodbye."

DOCTOR: I'm terribly sorry but we were unable to save your wife. I also have to clarify a few things in your story. You claim that while playing golf with your wife, you hit your golf ball and that it hit your wife in the back of the head causing her to fall over unconscious.

Picture an old western town. Into the saloon walks a talking dog. He goes to the barkeep and says, "I want me a smoothe wisky, woof." he is ignored. He repeats, "I want me a smooth wisky, woof, woof." The barkeep says, "We don't serve no talkin' dogs here." The dog pounds the counter and says, "I want me a shot of smooth wisky, woof, woof, woof!" the room goes quite. From across the room a man wearing black stands up from his poker game and says, "you heard the gent, DOG, get on outta here." The dog just stares at him and says, "I want me a shot of smooth wisky, woof, woof, woof, woof!" The man in black says, "All right dog, you asked for it!" His hands move lightning quick, there's a bang and a flash, the smell of burnt fur, and the dog, yelping to himself, limps out of the bar. "I reckon that's the last we'll see of that there talking dog," smirks the man in black.

Now it's some time later, same small town. The same saloon, and in walks the Talking Dog, but this time he's wearing boots with spurs, a calf-skin vest with a gold star, and twin, ivor-butted colts in holsters at his sides. He walks to the bar. The barkeep says, "Uh, hhhhhelllo mr-mr-mr T-t-t-talking D-d-d-d-dog s-s-s-ir, what c-c-c-can I do for you?" The dog pushes his stetson off his forhead and casts a cool eye around the room, then says in a low growl, "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw."

The Russians and the United States were contending about which country would rule the world. They decided to have a dog fight in order to choose. They had five years in which to prepare. The Russians inter-bred several vicious breeds including a weimaramer, pit bull, rotweiller and a German shepherd. A truly mean dog emerged after the five years, and the Russians were confident and ready to take on the U.S.'s dog.

The Russian dog growled loudly as he entered the fight ring. He was met by the U.S. dog, which was a very long and low dachshund. The Russian dog lunged at the dachshund. Immediately, the dachshund bit off the Russian's dog's head. That was the end of the match, and the U.S. won control of the world.

The Russian breeders and leaders came over to talk with the U.S. officials and said "It took us five long years to breed a weimaramer with a pit bull and then a rotweiller and a German shepherd--all into one hybrid dog." Then they asked, "What did you do? How could a dachshund defeat our ferocious dog? The U.S. officials answered, "It took us five long years to figure out how to make a crocodile look like a dachshund."

A husband knew his wife was having an affair with another man but could never prove it. One day he left work early and to try to catch her in the act. Just then his wife and her lover were undressing each other in the living room and luckily happened to notice the husband walking towards their apartment building. The husband got in the elevator and rode up to the 50th floor and as the doors opened he saw his naked wife pushing a naked man out of their apartment door.

Enraged the husband bolted across the hallway as the two lovers slammed the apartment door. Flustered, the man fumbled with his keys and finally got into the apartment. By the time he got in his wife was sitting on the couch acting as if nothing had happened. The husband demanded to know where the naked man was hiding but the wife insisted she didn't know what he was talking about.

The husband searched every room in the apartment but couldn't find the naked man anywhere. He ended up in the kitchen, crazed and frustrated and picked up the refrigerator and threw it out the window. Unfortunately the electrical cord wrapped around his ankle and dragged him out the window 50 floors down to the pavement below and a certain death.

At that instant three people appeared at Heaven's Gate. St. Peter asked the first man how he died and the man said his wife was having an affair, he knew her lover was hiding in their apartment but he couldn't find him and in anger he picked up the refrigerator and tossed it out the window, his foot got tangled in the cord and he and the refrigerator dropped 50 floors to his death. St. Peter asked the second man how he died and he said he was just walking by a 50 story apartment building when a man and a refrigerator came crashing down on him. St. Peter asked the third man, who was naked and shivering, how he died
and he said, "I was just sitting in a refrigerator on the 50th floor of a 50 story apartment building..."

I was driving to work the other day, when I saw a cute liitle rabbit on the side of the road. Unfortunately, the rabbit wanted to get a closer look at the car and ran under it. I immediately pulled over and ran over to the rabbit, who was quivering and gasping for air. I ran back to my car to see if I had any first aid supplies to help this poor little rabbit. I noticed a spray can in the back seat, grabbed it and rushed back to the rabbit. I quickly sprayed the rabbit,and, amazingly enough, it got up and hopped away.

THe next day I took the same route to work, and saw the rabbit on the side of the road, and I could have sworn that it waved to me! The next day, there he was, waving again. . On the third day, there was the rabbit in the same spot, waving. When I got to work I looked in the back seay of the car and saw the can that had used on the rabbit. It was labeled: Hare Spray, for Permanent Wave.

There was this party in the woods and all of a sudden there was a downpour of thunder and rain. These two young guys ran for about 10 minutes in the pouring rain, finally reaching their car just as the rain let up. They jumped in the car, started it up and headed down the road, laughing and, of course, still drinking one beer after the other.

All of a sudden an old Indian man's face appeared in the passenger window and tapped lightly on the window! The passenger screamed out, "Eeeeekkk! Look at my window!!! There's an old Indian guy's face there!" This old Indian man kept knocking, so the driver said, "Well open the window a little and ask him what he wants!"

So the passenger rolled his window down part way and said, scared out of his wits, "What do you want???" The old Indian softly replied, "You have any tobacco?" The passenger, terrified, looked at the driver and said, "He
wants tobacco!" "Well offer him a cigarette! HURRY!!" the driver replies.

So he fumbles around with the pack and hands the old man a cigarette and yells, "Step on it!!!" rolling up the window in terror.

Now going about 80 miles an hour, they calm down and they start laughingagain, and the passenger says, "What do you think of that?" The driversays, "I don't know? How could that be? I am going pretty fast?" Then allof a sudden AGAIN there is a knock on the window and there is the old Indianman again. "aaaaaaaaaaaaa, there he is again!", the passenger yells.

Well see what he wants now!" yells back the driver. He rolls down the windowa little ways and shakily says "Yes?" "Do you have a light?" the old Indian
quietly asks. The passenger throws a lighter out the window at him and rollsup the window and yells, "STEP ON IT!"

They are now going about 100 miles an hour and still guzzling beer, trying to forget what they had just seen and heard, when all of a sudden again there is more knocking! "Oh my God! HE'S BACK!" He rolls down the window and screams out, "WHAT DO YOU WANT?" in stark fear. The old man gently replies, "You want some help getting out of the mud"?

A woman boards a train in Ireland. She is carrying a small, fluffy little dog, and proceeds to sit down and place the dog in the seat next to her. The train fills up quickly, with many people unable to find a seat. Finally, just before the train leaves, an American gets on. He sees the dog in the seat and asks the lady to hold it so he can sit down. She refuses, saying the dog is a highly-pedegreed show dog. The man asks again, a little more strongly. Again, the woman refuses. Things go on this way for a while, until finally the man picks up the dog, opens the window, and throws it out. He sits down calmly as the woman begins to shriek and pound him with her fists. An old Irishman across the way leans over and says to the man: "Ah, ya foolish Yanks. Ye do everythin' backwards. Not only do ye drive on the wrong side of the road but ye just threw the wrong bitch out the window."

Her next stop is for a little boy that bounds into the bus and says, "Hi, I'm Lester East", and he runs back to a seat behind the little girl with the rabbits.
The bus driver notices that Lester is creating problems by kicking the seat in front of him and making the little girl with the rabbits cry and yell.

Two guys are out fishing in the wilderness on a blazing hot summer afternoon. Eventually, they decide to take off their socks and shoes and wade into the stream, so that they can cool off. Just after they do this, a huge grizzly bear appears on the opposite bank of the stream. The bear takes one look at the two fishermen and instantly charges. Naturally, both men immediately rush for the shore. Both men reach the shore at the same time, but one of them immediately stops to grab his shoes. His friend, still running, yells "What are you doing? Those shoes won't help you outrun the bear!" The first fisherman replies, "It isn't the BEAR I have to outrun!"

A farmer comes down the driveway and asks what's all the tire noise and goins on. The man asks about the three legged hog. The farmer says, "That hog is the smartest hog in the world . . . why last month that hog smelled smoke coming from my house--woke me up and it saved my family from a firey death. The man then said how wonderful that was, but still wanted to know the story behind the three legged hog. The farmer just looked real hard at the stranger and proceeded to tell another story about the hog. Seems the hog caught,ran down and sat on a would be thief one night and kept the robber at bay until the law got there. The stranger,although impressed with this story, still wanted to know the story behind the three legged hog. Well, the farmer knew the man was not going to stop asking about the missing leg until he got the story.

A cat presented the family tennis racket to a psychiatrist, who quickly diagnosed," Your brother is too high strung."

Duck walks into a 7-11, looks around a little, and then approaches the cashier and asks, "You, uh, got any grapes?"

The cashier impatiently replies, "Uh, no. We're 7-11. We don't sell fresh produce." Duck walks out.

The next day the Duck walks back into the same 7-11 with the same cashier behind the counter and says, "Got any grapes?"

The cashier, clearly irritated replies, "No, we don't have any grapes, nor will we ever have any grapes. This is a 7-11. We don't sell fresh produce." Duck walks out.

Duck walks in the third day in a row and walks up to the same cashier and asks, "Got any grapes?"

The cashier infuriated replies, "No, we do NOT have any grapes, nor will we ever have any grapes. Furthermore, if you ever come back in here again askng for grapes I'll nail your bill to the floor!" So, the Duck walks out.

Fourth day in a ROW, the Duck walks into the same 7-11 with the same cashier behind the counter and asks, "Got any nails?"

Cashier, "No."

Duck, "Got any grapes?"
