Too Bad It's Monday (TBIM) Jokes

CONCERN: For the thousands of people in eastern Australia stranded by some of the worst flooding Australia has seen in 20 years. BBC Report is HERE.

Below are what I judge to be the best of the humor I have received in my emails during the past week. You may not agree with all of my choices, but if even one joke brings you a smile on Too Bad It’s Monday, my goal has been achieved.

Bob and his wife live in Toledo, Ohio. One winter morning while listening to the radio, they hear the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even numbered side of the street, so the snowplow can get through." Bob's wife goes out and moves her car.

A week later while they are eating breakfast, the radio announcer says, "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd numbered side of the street, so the snowplow can get through."

Bob's wife goes out and moves her car again.

The next week they are having breakfast again, when the radio announcer says "We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow today. You must park..........." then the electric power goes out.

Bob's wife is very upset, and with a worried look on her face she says, "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the snowplow can get through?”

With the love and understanding in his voice like all men who are married to Blondes exhibit, Bob says, "Honey, why don't you just leave it in the garage this time?"

A small town prosecuting attorney called his first witness to the stand in a trial—a grandmotherly, elderly woman. He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"

She responded, "Why, yes, I do know you Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were a young boy. And frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a rising big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you never will amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do he pointed across the room and asked, "Mrs. Williams, do you know the defense attorney?"

She again replied, "Why, yes I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too. I used to baby-sit him for his parents. And he, too, has been a real disappointment to me. He's lazy, bigoted, he has a drinking problem. The man can't build a normal relationship with anyone and his law practice is one of the shoddiest in the entire state. Yes, I know him."

At this point, the judge rapped the courtroom to silence and called both counselors to the bench. In a very quiet voice, he said with menace, "If either of you idiots ask her if she knows me, you'll be in jail for contempt of court in a heart beat!"

Two fraternity brothers decide to go sailing one afternoon and become lost. After twenty hours with nothing to eat or drink, one of them spots a lamp floating by. He picks it up and a genie pops out. The genie notices the poor condition of the brothers and grants them one wish between the two of them.

After a lot of arguing over who gets the wish, one of them blurts out, "I wish the ocean was made of beer."

Magically, the ocean turns to beer. Infuriated, the other guy yells, "You idiot! Now we have to piss in the boat!"

AND THE NUMBER 1 THOUGHT FOR 2008:

"Life is like a jar of jalapeños. What you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow".

A West Virginia evangelist was holding forth in a tent meeting regarding the evils of believing in the spirit world and he asked the faithful, "How many of you have seen a ghost?"

Hands go up.

"OK, now, how many of you have talked to a ghost?"

Not so many hands go up.

"Now, brothers and sisters, how many of you have played cards with a ghost?"

Still fewer hands.

In summation, the preacher asks, "Dearly beloved, how many of you have had sex with a ghost?".

This time, only one hand goes up, all the way in the back. It's a little old man with thick bifocals and overalls. The preacher exhorts, "Come forth, brother!"

The little old man comes up front and the preacher dramatically leaves the podium and puts his arm over the shoulders of the old man and says, "Now, relate your experience of having sex with a ghost."

The little old man adjusts his hearing aid and says, "Ghost? I thought you said goat."

We purchased an old home in Northern New York State from two elderly sisters. Winter was fast approaching and I was concerned about the house's lack of insulation. "If they could live here all those years, so can we!" my husband confidently declared.

One November night the temperature plunged to below zero, and we woke up to find interior walls covered with frost. My husband called the sisters to ask how they had kept the house warm. After a rather brief conversation, he hung up.

"For the past 30 years," he muttered, "they've gone to Florida for the winter."
