Howard was very, very depressed.
He had committed a great moral wrong, and he was so consumed by his guilt
that he was on the verge of suicide. Just as he put the barrel of his
gun in his mouth, and inner voice spoke to him.
"Howard," said the voice, "relax, will you? Look, you're not the first
doctor who slept with a patient. And you know the parient isn't pregnant,
nor is she complaining. So lighten up, okay?"
Howard felt better until a second inner voice spoke to him. "Howard,"
said the second voice, "you're a veterinarian."

A lady in her late 40's went to the plastic surgeon for a face lift. The
doctor told her of a new procedure called "The Knob." This small knob
is planted on the back of the woman's head and can be turned to tighten
up the skin to produce the effect of a brand new facelift forever. Of
course, the woman wanted "The Knob."
Fifteen years later the woman went back to the doctor with 2 problems.
"All these years everything had been working just fine. I've had to turn
the knob on lots of occasions and I've loved the results. But now I've
developed two annoying problems. First of all, I've got these terrible
bags under my eyes and the knob won't get rid of them." The doctor looked
at her and said, "Those aren't bags, those are your breasts." She replied,
"Well, I guess that explains the goatee."

The doorbell rang, the farmer got his shotgun and answered the door. A
gentleman said,
Hi, I'm Joe,
I'm here for Flo,
We're goin' to the show,
Is she ready to go?
The farmer frowned but decided to let them go.
The doorbell rang again, the farmer got his shotgun, and answered the
door. A gentleman said,

I'm here for Jenny,
We're gettin' spaghetti
Is she ready?

Ms. Sampson, a sixth-grade science teacher, asked her class, "Who can
tell me which organ of the human body expands to 10 times its usual size
when stimulated ?"
Nobody raised a hand, so Ms Sampson called on the first student who looked
her way.
"Mary, can you tell me which organ of the human body expands to 10 times
of its usual size when stimulated ?"
Mary stood up blushing furiously.
" How dare you ask such a question ?!" she said. " I'm going to complain
to my parents, who will complain to the principal, who will have you fired!"
Ms. Sampson was shocked by Mary's outburst, but undaunted.
She asked the class the question again, and this time Sam raised his hand.
"Ma'am, the correct answer is the iris of the human eye,"
"Very good, Sam, thank you," Replied Ms. Sampson.
She then turned to Mary and said,
" Mary, I have three things to tell you. First, it's clear that you have
NOT done your homework. Second, you have a DIRTY mind. And third, I fear
one day you are going to be sadly disappointed.

"Two nuns and a mother superior are in car crash and all three die and
find themselves at the gates of heaven. St. Peter tells them that in order
to enter the gates they must answer one question correctly. They agree
and he turns to the first nun and says " Who was the first man?" The nun
replies "Adam." "That's correct." says St. Peter and allows her through
the gates. He then turns to the second nun and asks " Who was the first
woman?" "Eve," replies the second nun. "Correct." says St. Peter as he
turns to the mother superior. "Now, sister, I must ask you a more difficult
question because of your position in the church, I hope you understand."
"Of course," she says. "OK, here goes. What was the first thing Eve said
to Adam?" "Ooo, that is a hard one." says the mother superior. "Correct!"

A guy goes into a bar, and brings his monkey in with him. "Hey, get outta
here with that monkey!" says the bartender. "He'll be fine," the guy says,
"he's trained." But the next thing they know, the monkey has jumped up
on the pool table and swallowed the cue ball. "Hey, that was a solid ivory
cue ball!" said the bartender. "Don't worry -- in a couple of days he'll
pass it, I'll wash it up, and it'll be good as new," the guy says. "You
better be right," says the bartender. A couple of days later, the guy
comes back into the bar with the monkey, and the guy has the cue ball
in his hand. "Here you are -- the monkey passed it and I washed it up.
It's as good as new, just as I told you," says the guy. "That's fine,"
says the bartender, "but what's your monkey doing now?" They look down
the bar and the monkey is taking olives out of the drink garnish container,
inserting them into his rear end one by one, and then eating them. "Oh,"
says the guy, "after the cue ball incident he's been sizing everything
he eats."

Some years ago, a mountain man was captured by hostile Indians. He was
brought before the Chief, who told him, "the penalty for violating our
lands is death." "However," the Chief continued, "we are not without mercy;
if you can pass three tests of manhood, we will make you an honorary member
of our tribe and set you free." The mountain man saw that he had no choice,
so he agreed to the trials.
The Chief pointed to three large tipis, and told the mountain man that
each tipi contained one of his tests. "In the first tipi, a blazing fire
has been built. To pass the test, you must stay in the tipi for a full
day and night. If you try to leave the tipi you will be put to death,
but if you can withstand the heat until this time tomorrow, you will have
passed the first test." Then the Chief pointed to the second tipi and
said, "In that tipi is the largest, meanest grizzly bear in this area.
He has an infected tooth, which means that he is in constant pain. You
will be sent into the tipi naked, and with nothing but your bare hands,
you must remove the bad tooth. If you succeed -- and survive -- you will
have passed the second test." Finally, the Chief pointed to the third
tipi. "In that tipi," he said, "is the final and most difficult test.
In that tipi lives our most lusty squaw, 'She Who Is Insatiable.' You
must make love to her, and you will not be allowed to leave the tipi until
she is satisfied. If you try to leave before she is completely satisfied,
you will be put to death."
"Do you understand all that is required of you?" the Chief asked the mountain
man. The mountain man replied that he did, and so he was led into the
first tipi.
The next day, at the appointed time, the mountain man staggered out of
the tipi. He was drenched in sweat, but very much alive. There was much
rejoicing in the tribe, and the mountain man was congratulated for his
hardihood. He was given a few moments to recover, then stripped naked
and sent into the second tipi. Soon thereafter, fierce roars and growls
could be heard coming from the tipi. Hours passed. Finally, the growls
began to grow quieter, and then ceased altogether. Soon thereafter, the
mountain man staggered out of the tipi. The bear's claws had left deep
gashes over the man's entire body, and he was bloody from head to toe,
but he was alive. The members of the tribe were awestruck, and they could
only stare at him silently as he emerged from the tipi.
"Boy," the mountain man said, "you sure weren't kidding about how hard
that would be. Just give me a few minutes to rest up, then you can lead
me to the tipi with the bear in it."

Once there was a woman who had several guests in her house. She was quite
busy serving the food and making sure that everyone was comfortable. Partway
through the gathering, she found out that the toilet paper in the bathroom
had been used up, and that she had no more left in the house. She was
wondering what to do when she suddenly thought of her sewing room. Rushing
in, she gathered up bits and pieces of pattern paper, and put them in
the bathroom. Not too long afterward, a guest needed to use the bathroom.
After he came out, he drew his hostess aside. "My gosh," he whispered
in awe, "I've heard of fancy toilet paper, but I had never seen this kind
that says 'front' and 'back'!"

A guy walks into a bar and sits down. After a few minutes,he starts dialing
numbers like a telephone, but on the back of his hand. He then flips his
hand over and starts talking into the palm of his hand.
The bartender walks over and tells him that this is a very tough neighborhood
and he doesn't need any trouble from weirdos. The guy says, "You don't
understand. I'm very hi-tech. I had a phone installed in my hand because
I was tired of carrying the cellular."
The bartender says "Prove it!" so the guy dials up a number and hands
his hand to the bartender. The bartender talks into the hand and carries
on a brief conversation.
"That's incredible," says the bartender. "I would never have believed
it!"
"Yeah," said the guy. "I can keep in touch with my broker, my wife, you
name it. By the way, where is the men's room?" The bartender directs him
to the men's room.
The guy goes in, and 5, 10, 20 minutes go by, and he doesn't return. Fearing
the worst, given the violence in the neighborhood, the bartender goes
into the men's room. The guy is spread-eagle against the wall. His pants
are pulled down, and he has a roll of toilet paper shoved up his butt.
"Oh my god!" said the bartender. "Did the locals rob you? Are you hurt?"
The guy casually turns around, and says: "No, I'm OK. I'm just waiting
for a fax."

A travelling salesman is going door to door selling "bee-salve" to farmers
who have honey bees. He knocks on a farmer's door and says I'm selling
bee salve. Farmer says what's bee salve? Guy says, It's salve you put
on your body, and the bees stay away, then you don't have to wear the
mask and the suit! Farmer says How do I know it works? Guy says here's
what we'll do: We'll go out into your pasture, I strip all the way down,
smear the salve on my whole body, you then tie me to a tree, dump a whole
hive of bee on me, and come back in one hour. I won't have a single sting
on my whole body! The farmer say's I'll take you up on that! So out they
go and the salesman strips down, and puts salve on his whole body, and
the farmer lashes him tightly to the tree, dumps the hive of bees on him
and walks away. The farmer goes back into his shed and gets to tinkering
with things and ends up foprgetting about the salesman out in the pasture.
By the time he finally checks his watch, its like three hours later. Farmer
looks out the window and there's the guy still tied to the tree passed
out and slumped over. He rushes out to the guy and he's slapping his cheecks
trying to bring him around. "Mr. Mr. are you okay?!!" The salesman comes
around, takes one look at the farmer and yells "Doesn't that calf have
a mother?"

to him, he notices the man is depressed.
"What's the matter, pal?"
"I just found out my oldest son is gay."
The man returns for another double the next night.
"I just found out my youngest son is gay."
The next night, ANOTHER double
"I just found out I'm gay."

It was a busy day in Heaven, so St. Peter was interviewing the recently
deceased and admitting only those who'd had a truly traumatic death. The
first guy in line is asked, "So, how did you die?" And he says, "Well,
for months now I've been suspecting that my wife has been having an affair;
today I came home from work early to try to catch her. I didnt' find anyone
with her, but she was acting awfully suspicious, so I went into the bedroom
for a closer look; I was just about to leave, when i noticed out on the
deck there were two man's hands visible--I ran over, saw her lover hanging
from our deck, and stamped on his feet until he dropped; he miraculously
landed in some bushes, and I was so angry I went inside, grabbed our refrigerator,
and hurled it over the balcony onto the guy. Well, doing that gave me
a heart attack, and here I am." "Whew, yeah, that's pretty rough; okay,
you're in," ST. Peter told him. "Next! How did you die, sir?" the next
fellow in line says, "Listen, you're not going to believe it, but I was
working out on my deck, it was such a beautiful day, and while doing back-bends
I went over too far and fell over the railing! Luckily I caught myself
on the deck below mine, and was hanging there trying to figure out how
to save myself when this crazy guy came and started stomping on my fingers,
screaming at me! Well, I had to let go, but luckily I landed on some bushes.
I though I'd be okay then, but the guy had grabbed his refrigerator and
threw it down on me...and now here I am!" "You poor fellow--how bizarre!
You're in. Next!" St. Peter turned to the next man in line. "How about
you, sir?" The guy says to him, "All right, now, picture this: I'm naked,
hiding in a refrigerator..." !!!!!

After an evening at the pub, Angus was staggering home feeling the effects
of his whiskey. He needed to relieve himself so he lurched over to the
ditch by the side of the road to conduct his business. While standing
there he passed out and fell along the shoulder of the road where he slept
off his evening with Bacchus.
Very early the next morning, two touring female American college students
were walking past and checked to make sure Angus was alive. Finding he
was breathing alright one girl turned to the next and decided to answer
the age old question of "What does a Scotsman wear under his kilt?"
Seeing the answer displayed before, one of the young ladies pulled a light
blue ribbon from her hair and tied it to Angus to commemorate the event.
They then went on their merry way.
A short time later Angus awoke and staggered to his feet and prepared
to conduct the normal morning business. As he reached under his kilt he
felt the ribbon. Startled, he looked down at himself and a grin slowly
spread across his face. He then said:
"Ah Laddie! I don't know where ya been but you must have won First Prize!"

An American tourist went into a restaurant in a Spanish provincial city
for dinner, and asked to be served the specialty of the house. When the
dish arrived, he asked what kind of meat it contained. "Sir, these are
the COJONES", the waiter replied. "The what, you say?", exclaimed the
tourist. "They are testicles of the bull killed in the ring today," explained
the waiter. The tourist gulped, but tasted the plate anyway, and found
it delicious. Returning the following evening, he asked for the same dish.
After he finished the meal, the tourist commented to the waiter: "Today's
COJONES are much smaller than the ones I had yesterday." "True, sir,"
said the waiter, "...you see the bull, he does not always lose!"

A woman went to her doctor for a follow-up visit after the doctor had
prescribed testosterone (a male hormone) for her. She was a little worried
about some of the side effects she was experiencing.
”Doctor, the hormones you‘ve been giving me have really helped, but I‘m
afraid that you‘re giving me too much. I‘ve started growing hair in places
that I‘ve never grown hair before.”
The doctor reassured her. “A little hair growth is a perfectly normal
side effect of testosterone. Just where has this hair appeared?”
”On my testicles.”
