HUMOR FROM BUDDIES

By fred | December 12, 2008

Today I wanted to clean off my messages, as usually I it took a lot longer than I wished — why? If you have all the buddies I have, with their wide range of humor you would know why.

Much of it is from guys and the ladies are targeted, although my gal buddy down under in Australia sent one about getting old and not remembering that was cool.

Don’t worry ladies, much of the humor only goes to show that men should never argue with OR even attempt to compete with the ladies, guys are out of their league.

Yes, before forwarding this to you I did clean it up a bit here and there as boys will be boys. There was one where mostly naked ladies and a few guys were painted with body paint. They did not have a stitch of clothes on but you could not tell it. Took your old Uncle Fred quite a while wondering if it would be O. K. to send, after minute inspections (only looking at the “ART” aspect of it all – honest ladies, oh well, I will admit naked ladies even covered with paint are delightful to look at) I decided it would be best to not present it to you. In another life I may have to take up painting.

Back to the following humor -the ladies seem to come out on top, – sharper minds – there are areas that men should never attempt to complete – winning just never is going to happen, ladies are just basicly sharper when it comes to conversations, fun and games between the sexes!

Haven’t done any ‘HUMOR FROM BUDDIES’ for quite a while, I hope in these times of worry about our economy, our nation’s problems – a laugh, a smile may give your day a lift! Uncle Fred

HUMOR FROM BUDDIES

MARRIAGE SEMINAR

While attending a Marriage Seminar dealing with communication,

Joe and his wife Ann listened to the instructor,

‘It is essential that husbands and wives know each other’s likes and dislikes.’

He addressed the man,

‘Can you name your wife’s favorite flower?’

Tom leaned over, touched his wife’s arm gently and whispered, ‘It’s Pillsbury, isn’t it?

UNDERSTANDING WOMEN

(A MAN’S PERSPECTIVE)

I know I’m not going to understand women.

I’ll never understand how you can take boiling hot wax,

pour it onto your upper thigh, rip the hair out by the root,

and still be afraid of a spider.

TO GIVE THEM A LAUGH.
PASS THIS TO AS MANY WOMEN AS YOU CAN -
TO GIVE THEM A BIGGER LAUGH

The rest of the world cannot understand how after bitter election campaigns, American politicians can return to reality. For instance Sarah Palin has invited to her great state of Alaska the men who defeated her, Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

She has provided a moose hunting trip for their enjoyment and has hired two other prominent men to assist them. Dick Cheney will instruct them in safe gun handling and Ted Kennedy will drive them back to their cabins in the evening.

What a gal, that Sarah is such a sport, and thinks of everything.

Walking can add minutes to your life.
This enables you at 85 years old
to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing
home at $7000 per month.
My grandpa started walking
five miles a day when he was 60..
Now he’s 97 years old and we don’t know where The hell he is.
I like long walks, especially when they are taken
by people who annoy me.
The only reason I would take up walking
is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.
I have to walk early in the morning,
before my brain figures out what I’m doing…
I joined a health club last year,
spent about 400 bucks.
Haven’t lost a pound.
Apparently you have to go there.
Every time I hear the dirty word ‘exercise’,
I wash my mouth out with chocolate.
I do have flabby thighs,
but fortunately my stomach covers them.
The advantage of exercising every day
is so when you die, they’ll say,
‘Well, she looks good doesn’t she.’
If you are going to try cross-country skiing,
start with a small country.
I know I got a lot of exercise the last few years,..
just getting over the hill.
We all get heavier as we get older,
because there’s a lot more information in our heads.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
AND
Every time I start think ing too much
about how I look, I just find a Happy Hour
and by the time I leave, I look just fine.

WOMEN’S REVENGE

‘Cash, check or charge?’ I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase.

As she fumbled for her wallet , I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.

‘So, do you always carry your TV remote?’ I asked.

‘No,’ she replied, ‘but my husband refused to come shopping with me,

and I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him legally.’

NEXT

WIFE VS. HUSBAND

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word.

An earlier discussion had led to an argument and

neither of them wanted to concede their position.

As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs,

the husband asked sarcastically, ‘Relatives of yours?’

‘Yep,’ the wife replied, ‘in-laws.’

NEXT

CREATION

A man said to his wife one day, ‘I don’t know how you can be

so stupid and so beautiful all at the same time.

‘The wife responded, ‘Allow me to explain.

God made me beautiful so you would be attracted to me;

God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you !

NEXT

WHO DOES WHAT

A man and his wife were having an argument about who

should brew the coffee each morning.

The wife said, ‘You should do it because you get up first,

and then we don’t have to wait as long to get our coffee.

The husband said, ‘You are in charge of cooking around here and

you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for my coffee.’

Wife replies, ‘No, you should do it, and besides, it is in the Bible that the man should do the coffee.’

Husband replies, ‘I can’t believe that, show me.’

So she fetched the Bible, and opened the New Testament and showed him at the top of several pages, that it indeed says ‘HEBREWS’

NEXT

The Silent Treatment

A man and his wife were having some problems at home

and were giving each other the silent treatment.

Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him

at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.

Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper,

‘Please wake me at 5:00 AM.’ He left it where he knew she would find it.

The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn’t wakened him,

when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.

The paper said, ‘It is 5:00 AM. Wake up.’

Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

God may have created man before woman, but there is always a rough draft before the masterpiece

If you ever feel stupid, then just read on. If you’ve learned to speak fluent English, you must be a genius! This little treatise on the lovely language we share is only for the brave. Peruse at your leisure, English lovers.
A. Reasons why the English language is so hard to learn:

1) The bandage was wound around the wound.

2) The farm was used to produce produce.

3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.

4) We must polish the Polish furniture.

5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.

6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.

7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present.

8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.

9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.

10) I did not object to the object.

11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.

12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.

13) They were too close to the door to close it.& nbsp;

14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.

15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.

16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.

17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail

18) After a number of injections my jaw got number.

19) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.

20) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.

21) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?

B. By the way…

1) There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple.

2 )English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France.

3) Sweet meats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet nor breads.

4) Quicksand works slowly.

5) Boxing rings are square.

6) A guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

7) Why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham?

8) If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth beeth?

9) One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese?

10)Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend.

11)If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? Is it an odd, or an end?

12)If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught?

13)If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?

14)In what language do people recite a t a play and play at a recital?

15)Ship by truck and send cargo by ship?

16)Have noses that run and feet that smell?

17)How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?

C. You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which:

1) your house can burn up as it burns down,

2) in which you fill in a form by filling it out, and

3)in which, an alarm goes off by going on.

D. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

P.S. – Why doesn’t “Buick” rhyme with “quick”?

HOW THE FIGHT STARTED

When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her someplace expensive…. so, I took her to a gas station….. and then the fight started….

*********************************************************

I tried to talk my wife into buying a case of Miller Light for $14.95. Instead, she bought a jar of cold cream for $7.95. I told her the beer would make her look better at night than the cold cream. And that’s when the fight started.

************************************************************
After retiring, I went to the Social Security offi ce to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver’s license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, ‘Unbutton your shirt’. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, ‘That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me’ and she processed my Social Security appli cation.
When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.
She said, ‘You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability, too.’ And then the fight started…..

************************************************************

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table. My wife asked, ‘Do you know her?’ ‘Yes,’ I sighed, ‘She’s my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn’t been sober since.’ ‘My God!’ says my wife, ‘Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?’ And then the fight started…..

************************************************************

I rear-ended a car this morning. So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out of his car. You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little thing s just seem funny?
Yeah, well I couldn’t believe it…. he was a DWARF!!! He stormed over to my car, looked up at me , and shouted, ‘I AM NOT HAPPY!!!’ So, I looked down at him and said, ‘Well, then which one are you?’
And that’s how the fight started…..

*************************************************************

I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order first. ‘I’ll have the strip steak, medium rare, please.’ He said, ‘Aren’t you worried about the mad cow?’ ‘Nah, she can order for herself.’
And that’s how the fight started…..
