Certainly. But there's a strict limit of one per customer.

Although I have heard most of these years ago, they never fail to make me giggle. Thanks for sharing and bringing back the memories Mike.

Please join me in remembering a great icon. Veteran Pillsbury spokesperson, The Pillsbury Doughboy, died yesterday of a severe yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes to the belly. He was 71. Doughboy was buried in a slightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, the California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, Captain Crunch and many others.

The graveside was piled high with flours as long-time friend, Aunt Jemima, delivered the eulogy, describing Doughboy as a man who "never knew how much he was kneaded."

Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times, even as a crusty old man, he was still considered a roll model for millions.

Toward the end it was thought he'd raise once again, but he was no tart.

Doughboy is survived by his second wife, Play Dough. They have two children and one in the oven. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

Don't interrupt me when I'm ignoring you!

I'd love to see things from your point of view but I can't get my head that far up my bum.

Wedding story !!

What about this .........

This is a true story about a recent wedding that took place at Clemson University.
It made the local newspaper; even Jay Leno mentioned it on his show.

It was a huge wedding with about 300 guests.

After the wedding, at the reception, the groom got up on stage with a microphone to talk to the
crowd. He said he wanted to thank everyone for coming, many from long distances, to support them at
their wedding. He especially wanted to thank the bride's family & to especially thank his new father-in-law
for providing such a lavish reception. As a token of his deep appreciation he said he wanted to give everyone
a special gift just from him. So taped to the bottom of everyone's chair, including the wedding party, was an envelope.
He stressed that this was his gift to everyone, & asked them to open their envelope. Inside each manila envelope
was an 8 x 10 glossy of his bride having sex with his best friend, the best man. The groom had gotten suspicious
of them weeks earlier & had hired a private detective to tail them. After just standing there, just watching the guests' reactions
for a couple of minutes, he turned to his best man & said, "*--- you!" Then he turned to his bride & said, "*--- you!"

Then he turned back to the dumbfounded crowd & said, "I'm outta here."
He had the marriage annulled first thing the following morning.
While most people would have cancelled the Wedding immediately after finding out about the affair, this guy goes
through with the charade, as if nothing were wrong. His revenge....making the bride' s parents pay over $32,000 for a 300+ guest wedding & reception, & best of all, trashing the bride's & his best man's reputations in front of 300+ friends & family members.

This guy has balls the size of church bells.
Do you think we might get a Master Card "PRICELESS" commercial out of this?

Elegant wedding reception for 300 family members & friends: $32,000...

Wedding photographs commemorating the Occasion: $3,000...

Deluxe two week honeymoon accommodations in Maui: $8,500...

The look on everyone's face when they see the 8x10 glossy of the bride humping his best man:

Priceless.
