the seven dwarves went to the Vatican and

when the Pope answered the door, Dopey stepped

forward: "your excellency," he said. "i wonder if you

could tell me if there are any dwarf nuns in Rome?"

"no Dopey, there aren't," the Pope replied.

Behind Dopey, the six dwarves started to titter.

"well, are there any dwarf nuns in Italy?"

Dopey persisted.

"No, none in Italy," the Pope answered a little

more sternly.

a few of the dwarves now began to laugh more

openly.

"well, are there any dwarf nuns in Europe?"

This time the Pope was much more firm.

"Dopey there are no dwarf nuns in Europe."

By this point, all the dwarves were laughing

aloud and rolling around on the ground.

"Pope," Dopey demaded. "are there any dwarf

nuns in the whole world?"

"no Dopey," the Pope snapped. "there are no

dwarf nuns anywhere in the world."

Whereupon the six dwarves started jumping up

and down chanting, "Dopey ++++++ a penguin! Dopey

++++++ a penguin!"

Herre's a couple of lawyer jokes. I hope you're not a lawyer, or else I'll have to charge you for 'em. :)

Q: What's black and brown and looks good on a lawyer?

A: A Doberman.

Q: How many lawyers does it take to roof a house?

A: Depends on how thin you slice 'em.

A country lawyer is visiting a client's farm, and needs to use the toilet, but remembers that there's no running water, so he runs around back to the outhouse. When he opens the door, he sees the handyman is already in there, so he starts to close the door, but the handyman says, "Don't worry, it's a two-holer." So the lawyer takes a seat, finishes quickly, but as he's standing up, he accidentally drops 75 cents down the hole.

So he reaches into his wallet, takes out a $100 bill, and tosses that down the hole, as well. The handyman asks him, "Why'd you do that?", and the lawyer tells him, "I'll be darned if I'm going down there for just 75 cents."

Note to lawyers: Just jokes. Please don't sue. :D

a monk joins an abbey ready to dedicate his

life to copying ancient books by hane. After the first

day though, he reports to the head priest. he's

concerned that all the monks have been copying

from copies made from still more copies.

"if someone makes a mistake," he points out.

"it would be impossible to detect. even worse the

error would continue to be made."

a bit startled, the priest decides that he better

check their latest effort against the original which

is kept in a vault beneath th abbey. a place only he

has accdess to.

Well two days, then three days pass without the

preist resurfacing. finally the new monk decides to

see if the old guys alright. when he gets down there

though, he discovers the priest hunched over both a

newly copied book and the ancient original text. he

is sobbing and by the look of things has been

sobbing for a long time.

"father?" the monk wispers.

"oh Lord Jesus," the priest wails. "the word is

'celebrate.'"

You asked for it.

Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's Mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.

This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank and the cargo was forever lost.

The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning which they still observe to this day.

The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known of course as Sinko de Mayo.... :doh:

Larry gets home late one night and his wife, Linda, says, "Where in the hell have you been?"

Larry replies, "I was out getting a tattoo."

"A tattoo?" she frowned. "What kind of tattoo did you get?"

"I got a tatoo of a hundred dollar bill on my privates," he said proudly.

"What the hell were you thinking?" she said, shaking her head in disdain "Why on earth would an accountant get a hundred dollar bill tattooed on his privates?"

"Well, for one, I like to watch my money grow. Two, once in a while I like to play with my money. Three, I like how money feels in my hand. And, lastly, instead of you going out shopping, you can stay right here at home and blow a hundred bucks anytime you want."

Larry is recovering in room 232 at John Hopkins Hospital
