Who knew email was made for sending jokes?

The inventor of email probably didn’t realize its chief purpose was to disseminate jokes.

WILL ROGERS, who died in a plane crash with Wylie Post in 1935, was probably the greatest political sage this country has ever known. Enjoy the following:

1. Never slap a man who’s chewing tobacco.

2. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.

3. There are 2 theories to arguing with a woman ... neither works.

4. Never miss a good chance to shut up.

5. Always drink upstream from the herd.

6. If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

7. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it and put it back in your pocket.

8. There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.

9. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

10. If you’re riding’ ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still there.

11. Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier’n puttin’ it back.

12. After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral:

When you’re full of bull, keep your mouth shut. ABOUT GROWING OLDER...

First – Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

Second – The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

Third – Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know “why” I look this way. I’ve traveled a long way and some of the roads weren’t paved.

Fourth – When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.

Fifth – You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

Sixth – I don’t know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.

Seventh – One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.

Eighth – One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.

Ninth ~ Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

Tenth – Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it’s called golf.

And finally – If you don’t learn to laugh at trouble, you won’t have anything to laugh at when you are old.

JUST IN CASE you weren’t feeling too old today, this will certainly change things.

Each year the staff at Beloit College in Wisconsin puts together a list to try to give the faculty a sense of the mindset of this year’s incoming freshmen.

Here’s this year’s list:

The people who started college this fall across the nation were born in 1986.

They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up on takeoff.

Their lifetime has always included AIDS

Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic

The CD was introduced the year they were born.

They have always had an answering machine.

They have always had cable.

They cannot fathom not having a remote control.

Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show.

Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.

They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.

They can’t imagine what hard contact lenses are.

They don’t know who Mork was or where he was from

They never heard: “Where’s the Beef ?”, “I’d walk amile for a Camel”, or “de plane, Boss, de plane”.

They do not care who shot J. R. and have no idea who J. R. even is.

McDonald’s never came in Styrofoam containers.

They don’t have a clue how to use a typewriter. HERE’S ONE WAY TO MAKE A POINT!

A sexy woman went up to the bar in a quiet rural pub...

She gestured alluringly to the bartender who approached her immediately. She seductively signaled that he should bring his face closer to hers. As he did, she gently caressed his full beard.

“Are you the manager?” she asked, softly stroking his face with both hands.

“Actually, no,” he replied.

“Can you get him for me? I need to speak to him,” she said, running her hands beyond his beard and into his hair.

“I’m afraid I can’t,” breathed the bartender. “Is there anything I can do?”

“Yes. I need for you to give him a message,” she continued, running her forefinger across the bartender’s lips and slyly popping a couple of her fingers into his mouth and allowing him to suck them gently.

“What should I tell him?” the bartender managed to say.

“Tell him,” she whispered, “there’s no toilet paper, hand soap, or paper towels in the ladies room.” IT’S A TOUGH WORLD

A little guy is sitting at a local bar just staring at his drink for half an hour when this big trouble-making truck driver sits down next to him, grabs his drink and gulps it

down in one swig. The poor

little guy starts crying.

“Come on man, I was just

giving you a hard time,” says

the truck driver.

“I’ll buy you another drink.

I just can’t stand to see a man

crying.”

“This is the worst day of my

life,” says the little guy

between sobs. “I can’t do

anything right. I overslept and

was late to an important

meeting, so my boss fired me.

When I went to the parking

lot, I found my car was stolen

and I have no insurance. I

grabbed a cab home but, after

the cab left, I discovered my

wallet was still in the cab. At

home I found my wife in bed

with the gardener. So I came

to this bar trying to work up

the courage to put an end to

my life, and then you show up

and drink the cotton pickin’

poison”!!!

AND FINALLY:

A young man wanted to get

his beautiful blonde wife,

Susie, something nice for

their first wedding anniversary.

So he decided to buy her a cell

phone.

He showed her the phone

and explained to her all of its

features.

Susie was excited to receive

the gift and simply adored her

new phone.

The next day Susie went

shopping. Her phone rang

and, to her astonishment, it

was her husband on the other

end. “Hi Susie,” he said,

“how do you like your new

phone?”

Susie replied, “I just love it!

It’s so small and your voice is

clear as a bell, but there’s one

thing I don’t understand

though...!”

“What’s that, sweetie?”

asked her husband.

“How did you know I was

at Wal-Mart?”

Got a good (clean) one for the August
