Subj:     Grocery Store Manager Stops Thief (S581)
          From: LABLaughsClean on 3/7/2008

 My friend is the manager at a grocery store.  Recently, he
 nabbed a shoplifter in the act.  While escorting the
 suspect to the office at the front of the store (near
 the cash registers), the shoplifter broke free from his
 grip and attempted a brazen escape.

 I should mention that my friend was an all-county
 linebacker in high school, so it was with little effort
 that he brought the shoplifter down with a tackle.  He
 pinned the guy against the pickle display, then looked
 up to see a number of surprised shoppers staring at him.

 "Everything's fine, folks," he reassured them.  "This
 guy just tried to go through the express line with more
 than nine items!"

Subj:     Feisty Old Lady Vs The Electrician (S557b)
          From: ginafm on 9/19/2007

 A feisty old lady had to call the electric company for a
 repairman.  After a quick inspection, Al, the man from the
 power company found the problem and handed her a $70 bill
 for labor.

 "Labor charges!  One hour?" she exclaimed.  "It only took
 you five minutes!"

 Al explained that his company had a minimum one-hour charge
 on every  house call.

 "Well, I want my remaining 55 minutes of labor," the lady
 responded, and she handed him a rake.

 Al spent the next 55 minutes in her yard bagging leaves.

Subj:     Photographer's Test In Florida (S500b)
          From: flovilla on 8/16/2006

 This test only has one question, but it's a very important one.

 By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand
 morally.  The test features an unlikely, completely fictional
 situation in which you will have to make a decision.  Remember
 that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.  Please
 scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.

 THE SITUATION

 You are in Florida, Miami to be specific. There is chaos all
 around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding.  This
 is a flood of biblical proportions.  You are a photojournalist
 working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle
 of this epic disaster.

 The situation is nearly hopeless.  You're trying to shoot career-
 making photos.  There are houses and people swirling around you,
 some disappearing under the water.  Nature is unleashing all of
 its destructive fury.

 THE TEST

 Suddenly you see a man in the water.  He is fighting for his
 life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.  You move
 closer.  Somehow the man looks familiar.  You suddenly realize
 who it is.  It's Jesse Jackson!  At the same time you notice
 that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.
 You have two options--

 You can save the life of Jesse Jackson, or you can shoot a
 dramatic Pulitzer Prize-winning photo, documenting the death
 of one of the world's most powerful politicians.

 THE QUESTION is:

 Please give an honest answer.

 Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go
 with the classic simplicity of black and white?

Subj:     The Wal-Mart Greeter (S497, S676)
          From: auntiegah on 8/1/2006
      and From: sam.hutkins on 12/30/2009

 A very unattractive, mean actin' woman walks into Wal-mart
 with her two kids.  After shoving her way past several
 customers waiting to get carts, she says to the Wal-mart
 greeter, "Go through those carts and find me one that
 doesn't need oiling for once!"

 "Yes Ma'am, happy to oblige," says the Greeter, and goes
 and picks out a cart for her.

 "Here you are, Ma'am, hope this one is okay," he says.

 "If you'd get out of my way, maybe I could find out!"
 snaps the woman.

 "Sorry, Ma'am," the Greeter says, standing aside, "And
 you and the twins have a nice day."

 The woman snarls, "They're not twins, you moron!  They
 don't even look alike."

 The greeter smiles, "No they don't Ma'am.  I just could
 not believe you got laid twice."

Subj:     The Great Zumbrati (S488b)
          From: Joke-Of-The-Day-Mail.com on 5/25/2006

 Upon finishing an exceptionally dangerous tightrope walk over
 Niagara Falls in appalling wind, rain and limited visibility
 'The Great Zumbrati' was met by an enthusiastic supporter,
 who urged him to make a return trip, this time pushing a
 wheelbarrow, which the spectator had thoughtfully brought
 along.

 The Great Zumbrati was extremely reluctant, given the terrible
 conditions, but the supporter pressed him, "You can do it - I
 know you can," he urged.

 "You really believe I can do it?" asked The Great Zumbrati.

 "Yes - definitely - you can do it." the supporter gushed.

 "Are you really 100% Certain, even given these terrible winds",
 Zumbrati queried again.

 "Yes, Yes, Yes?", answered the fan, gushing with expectation.

 "Okay," said Zumbrati, "Get in the wheelbarrow....."

Subj:     Exterminator Tech Phone Call (S478b)
          From: LABLaughs.com on 3/9/2006
          Source: http://www.wtfun.com/fun26.php

 My husband works as a service technician for a large
 exterminating company.  One of the rules of the company
 is that he has to comfirm each appointment by phone the
 night before his service call to that household.

 One evening he made such a call, and when a man answered
 the phone, he said, "Hi, this is Gary from A to Z Pest
 Control Company.  Your wife phoned us."  There was a long
 silence, and then my husband heard the man on the other
 end say, "Honey, it's for you....someone wants to talk to
 you about your relatives."

Subj:     Small Town Ambulance Driver (S477c)
          From: LABLaughs.com on 3/8/2006

 Driving a small town ambulance, it was not uncommon for my
 husband and I to stop at the local grocer to buy food for
 dinner after a call at the end of the day. I had gone in
 to get a head of lettuce and some tomatoes, and unknown to
 me the floor was wet. Down I went, hitting my head hard.

 When I came to, the manager of the store was sitting beside
 me telling me not to move, that he had called 911.

 At the same time my pager went off and he looked at me and
 asked, "What was that?"

"My pager," I said. "I am 911."

Subj:     The Clock Repairman (S464b)
          From: LABLaughsClean on 12/9/2005

 Harvey's grandfather clock suddenly stops working right one
 day, so he loads it into his van and takes it to a clock
 repair shop. In the shop is a little old man who insists he
 is Swiss, and has a heavy German accent. He asks Harvey,
 "Vat sims to be ze problem?"

 Harvey says, "I'm not sure, but it doesn't go
 'tick-tock-tick-tock' anymore. Now it just goes
 'tick...tick...tick.'"

 The old man says, "Mmm-Hm!" and steps behind the counter,
 where he rummages around a bit. He emerges with a huge
 flashlight and walks over the the grandfather clock. He
 turns the flashlight on, and shines it directly into the
 clocks face. Then he says in a menacing voice,

 "Ve haf vays of making you tock!"

Subj:     Harry, The Ice Man (s462b)
          From: LABLaughsAdult on 12/2/2005

 During the summers in the early 1940's, my uncle Harry, a
 young man working his way through college, was working as
 an ice man and drove an ice truck up and down the streets
 and alleys on the north side Chicago looking for the "ice
 cards" hung on the screen doors and windows of the
 residents who wished to purchase ice for their ice boxes.

 The cards usually had 3 settings; 25 lbs, 50 lbs and
 100 lbs. It was a poor time, the country just coming
 out of the depression and facing the start of WW ii.

 There were two spinster sisters that lived alone on the
 second floor of a frame wooden house on our block and
 they sometimes would display their ice card in the window
 for 25 lbs.

 My uncle, knew they could never scrape together the money
 to pay their bill but he always stopped and took all the
 broken ice pieces off his truck and carried it up to their
 place and packed it in their small wooden ice box.

 One day, towards the end of summer, after he had packed
 their box one of the sisters, the younger one, stepped
 out on the back porch and asked to speak to him. She
 seemed a bit shy and seemed flushed in embarrassment,

 "Young man my sister and I know you have helped us this
 summer with the ice, even when knowing we could not pay.
 We've read in books recently that sometimes women offer
 their bodies for sex in exchange for favors. Well since
 we have not been able to raise any money we decided to
 do that for you and since I am the youngest I am
 offering myself."

 Well my uncle always claimed that he tried to convince
 her that it wasn't necessary, but knowing him, that's
 highly doubtful, but he said after she insisted, he
 finally gave in and said, "Okay" and then they
 supposedly went at it with youthful fervor.

 Afterwards, he thanked the woman and dressed, took out
 his receipt book and wrote "PAID IN FULL" and handed it
 to the sister.

 The women looked at the bill for only a second and blurted
 out, "Now, look here, young man, we got that ice a little
 piece at a time and we damn well intend paying for it the
 same way!"

Subj:     The Hypnotist (S448)
          From: RFSlick on 8/16/2005

 A woman comes home and tells her husband, "Remember those
 headaches I've been having all these years? Well, they're
 gone."

 "No more headaches?" the husband asks, "What happened?"

 His wife replies, "Margie referred me to a hypnotist.  He
 told me to stand in front of a mirror, stare at myself and
 repeat 'I do not have a headache; I do not have a headache,
 I do not have a headache.' It worked! The headaches are all
 gone."

 The husband replies, "Well, that is wonderful."

 His wife then says, "You know, you haven't been exactly a
 ball of fire in the bedroom these last few years.  Why don't
 you go see the hypnotist and see if he can do anything for
 that?"  The husband agrees to try it.

 Following his appointment, the husband comes home, rips off
 his clothes, picks up his wife and carries her into the
 bedroom.  He puts her on the bed and says, "Don't move,
 I'll be right back."  He goes into the bathroom and comes
 back a few minutes later and jumps into bed and makes
 passionate love to his wife like never before.

 His wife says, "Boy, that was wonderful!"

 The husband says, "Don't move! I will be right back."

 He goes back into the bathroom, comes back and round two
 was even better than the first time.  The wife sits up and
 her head is spinning.

 Her husband again says, "Don't move, I'll be right back."

 With that, he goes back in the bathroom.  This time, his
 wife quietly follows him and there, in the bathroom, she
 sees him standing at the mirror and saying, "She's not my
 wife.  She's not my wife. She's not my wife!"

 His funeral services will be held on Monday.

Subj:     Night Watchman At A Factory (S422)
          From: DafterLafter on 2/23/2005
          (Also see 'Smuggling From Mexico' in Bicycle)

 A man got a job as a night watchman at a factory. There
 had been a lot of thefts by the workers on the night shift,
 and so every morning when the night shift workers passed
 through his gate it was his job to check their bags and
 pockets to make sure that nothing was being stolen.

 Things were going along very well the first night on the job
 until a man pushing a wheelbarrow of newspaper came through
 his gate. Aha, he thought, that man thinks he can cover up
 what he is stealing with that newspaper. So he removed the
 paper only to find nothing.

 Still he felt that the man was acting strangely, so he
 questioned him about the paper.

 "I get a little extra money from newspapers I recycle, so I go
 into the lunchroom and pick up all the ones people have
 thrown away."

 The guard let him pass, but decided to keep a close eye on
 him.

 The next night it was the same, and the night after that.
 Week after week it went on. The same guy would push the
 wheelbarrow of newspapers past the guard's checkpoint. The
 guard would always check and find nothing.

 Then one night, about a year later, the guard reported for
 work only to find a message had been left for him telling
 him to report to his supervisor.

 He walked into the supervisor's office and before he could
 say a word, the boss said, "You're fired!"

 "Fired?" he asked in total surprise. "Why? What did I do?"

 "It was your job to make sure that no one stole anything
 from this plant and you have failed. So you're fired."

 "Wait a minute, what do you mean failed. Nobody ever stole
 anything from this place while I was on guard."

 "Oh, really," the boss answered. "Then how do you account
 for the fact that there are 365 wheelbarrows missing?"

Subj:     Finding A Claim Ticket From WWII (S421b)
          From: Joke-Of-The-Day.com on 2/17/2005

 Stanley comes home after his mother's funeral to try to put
 her place in order.  He goes up to the attic to look around
 and finds an old trunk. Looking in it, he discovers his
 father's WWll uniform.

 So he tries it on and it's a little tight on him.  Before
 taking it off, he puts his hand in the pocket and comes up
 with a ticket. Looking at it, he finds a shoe repair ticket
 for Herman's on West 53rd Street in New York, dated January
 17th, 1942.

 He can barely believe it.  An unclaimed ticket from 55 years
 ago. Weeks later, Stabley happens to be in the area of West
 53rd and wanders over to see where the shoe repair was.  He
 can't believe his good luck; the shoe repair store is still
 there.  He wanders in and tells the story of finding the
 ticket to the old man.

 The man says his name is Herman and has owned the shop for
 60 years.  "Gimme the ticket" says Herman and wanders to the
 back of the shop.  Stanley is amazed.  What good fortune!
 What a coincidence!

 Herman comes back.  "I've got your shoes.  They'll be done
 tomorrow!"

Subj:     Door-To-Door Vacuum Cleaner Salesman (S410b, S634c)
          From: LABLaughsClean on 11/25/2004

 A little old woman answered a knock on the door one day,
 only to be confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying
 a vacuum cleaner. "Good morning," said the young man.  "If
 I could take a couple of minutes of your time, I would like
 to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered vacuum cleaners.

 "Go away!" said the old woman. "I haven't got any money!" and
 she proceeded to close the door.

 Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in the door
 and pushed it wide open.  "Don't be too hasty!" he said.
 "Not until you have at least seen my demonstration."
 In addition, with that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure
 onto her hallway carpet.  "If this vacuum cleaner does not
 remove all traces of this horse manure from your carpet,
 Madam, I will personally eat the remainder."

 The old woman stepped back and said, "Well I hope you've got
 a darned good appetite, because they cut off my electricity
 this morning.”

Subj:     How To End The Careers Of Professionals (S402b)
          From: jokes on 10/5/2004

 If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it
 follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted,
 cowboys deranged, models deposed (and eventually disfigured)
 and dry cleaners depressed?

 Laundry workers could decrease, eventually becoming depressed
 and depleted!  Even more, bedmakers will be debunked, baseball
 players will be debased, landscapers will be deflowered, bull-
 dozer operators will be degraded, organ donors will be delivered,
 the BVD company will be debriefed, and even musical composers
 will eventually decompose.  As a student, I spent all my time
 wishing to be detested and degraded.

 On a more positive note though, perhaps we can hope politicians
 will be devoted.

Subj:     TV Repairman And The Housewife (S402b)
          From: Anonymous Junior on 10/02/04

 The little sexy housewife was built so well the TV repairman
 couldn't keep his eyes off of her. Every time she came in the
 room, he'd near about jerk his neck right out of joint looking
 at her.

 When he'd finished she paid him and said, "I'm going to make
 a . .well .  unusual request.  But you have to first promise
 me you'll keep it a secret."

 The repairman quickly agreed and she went on.  "Well, it's
 kind of embarrassing to talk about, but while my husband is
 a kind, decent man -- sigh -- he has a certain physical
 weakness. A certain disability.  Now, I'm a woman and you're
 a man . .  "

 The repairman could hardly speak, "Yes yes!"

 "And since I've been wanting to ever since you came in the
 door . . ."

 "Yes yes!"

 "Would you help me move the refrigerator?"

Subj:     Texas Pharmacy Sells Drugs At Cost (S399b)
          From: jerry on 8/9/2004

 McKinney pharmacy of Texas has announced that they will now
 sell prescription drugs to uninsured and underinsured customers
 at cost.  This is good.

 But the article indicates, as an example, that a drug, normally
 costing $240 will cost just $16.68 for these folks.  And you
 thought it was the drug companies who were making all the profit
 on drugs, didn't you?  This is bad.

Subj:     Lady Talks To Pharmacist (S371b)
          From: dmswitzer1325 on 2/28/2004

 A lady walks into a drug store and tells the pharmacist she
 needs some Cyanide.  The pharmacist said, "Why in the world
 do you need cyanide?"

 The lady then explained she needed it to poison her husband.
 The pharmacist's eyes got big and he said, "Lord have mercy,
 I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband!  That's
 against the law!  They'll throw both of us in jail and I'll
 lose my license."

 The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of
 her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife and handed it
 to the pharmacist.  The pharmacist looked at the picture
 and replied, "Well now, you didn't tell me you had a
 prescription."

Subj:     Shoe Repair (S341b)
          From: LABLaughs.com on 7/23/2003

 Arnold and his wife were cleaning out the attic one day when
 he came across a ticket from the local shoe repair shop. The
 date stamped on the ticket showed that it was over eleven
 years old. They both laughed and tried to remember which of
 them might have forgotten to pick up a pair of shoes over a
 decade ago.

 "Do you think the shoes will still be in the shop?" Arnold
 asked.

 "Not very likely," his wife said.

 "It's worth a try," Arnold said, pocketing the ticket. He
 went downstairs, hopped into the car, and drove to the
 store.

 With a straight face, he handed the ticket to the man
 behind the counter.

 With a face just as straight, the man said, "Just a
 minute. I'll have to look for these."

 He disappeared into a dark corner at the back of the shop.
 Two minutes later, the man called out, "Here they are!"
 "No kidding?" Arnold called back. "That's terrific! Who
 would have thought they'd still be here after all this
 time."

 The man came back to the counter, empty-handed.

 "They'll be ready Thursday," he said calmly.

Subj:     The Clock Repairman (S309)
          From: LABLaughs.com on 1/1/2003

 Harvey's grandfather clock suddenly stops working right one
 day, so he loads it into his van and takes it to a clock
 repair shop.  In the shop is a little old man who insists
 he is Swiss, and has a heavy German accent.  He asks Harvey,
 "Vat sims to be ze problem?"

 Harvey says, "I'm not sure, but it doesn't go 'tick-tock-
 tick-tock' anymore.  Now it just goes 'tick...tick...tick.'"

 The old man says, "Mmm-Hm!" and steps behind the counter,
 where he rummages around a bit.  He emerges with a huge
 flashlight and walks over the the grandfather clock.  He
 turns the flashlight on, and shines it directly into the
 clocks face. Then he says in a menacing voice,

"Ve haf vays of making you tock!"

 A blacksmith had just gotten done making a new horseshoe.
 It had just turned from red back to brown when a boy walked
 into the shop.  Holding the horseshoe with a set of tongs,
 the blacksmith thrust it forward and said "Here boy look
 at this."

 The boy took the horseshoe in his hand and immediately
 handed it back.

 The blacksmith asked "Why did you return it so fast?"

 The boy answered "It doesn't take me long to look at
 a horseshoe."
