A man suffered a serious heart attack and had open heart bypass surgery. He awakened from the surgery to find himself in the care of nuns at a Catholic hospital.
As he was recovering, a nun asked him questions regarding how he was going to pay for services. He was asked if he had health insurance.
He replied in a raspy voice, "No health insurance."
The nun asked if he had money in the bank.
He replied, "No money in the bank."
The nun asked, "Do you have a relative who could help you?"
He said, "I only have a spinster sister who is a nun."
The nun got a little perturbed and announced loudly, "Nuns are not spinsters! Nuns are married to God."
The patient replied, "Then send the bill to my brother-in-law."
Give a man a fish and he will eat for the day. Teach him to fish and he will spend the day in a boat drinking beer.
One engineering student comes up to his friend, another engineering student, and notices he has a new bicycle.
"Where'd you get the bicycle?" asks the first student.
"It was the funniest thing. I was walking back to the dorm from the lab and this beautiful blonde chick pulled up on a bicycle."
"Go on..."
"Well, she stops in front of me, gets off the bike, strips naked, throws her clothes on the ground and says 'You can have anything you like, big boy!'"
The first student nods his head and says, "Good choice! The clothes would never have fit you!"
My friend Jim was a fueling-boom operator on a KC-135 tanker for years. This is one of his favorite jokes:
It's Christmas Eve, and Santa is heading out to the flight line to get the sleigh going. A man in aviator glasses walks up to him and says, "Hold it there, Mr. Kringle. I'm from the FAA, and it's past time for your safety-check. If you want to keep your pilot's license, I'll have to ride along and test you on safety procedures."
Santa says, "Well, it's a bit inconvenient, but I can't disappoint the kids."
The FAA instructor watches as Santa goes through a thorough inspection of the sleigh, checking the reindeer's harnesses, the tie-downs on the toys, then they both get in the sleigh and start down the preflight checklist item by item. They finish the list and get clearance to taxi from the tower.
"Oh, I should tell you something," says the FAA inspector as he pulls a shotgun out of his backpack and cocks it.
"I'm going to fail your number-four engine on takeoff!"
(p.s. But that's not the real punchline to the story! When Jim tells his wife SanDe this joke, she instantly came back with, "But how COULD he shoot Vixen????" (I admit I had to run down the list to verify it... That's just the kind of thing that SanDe WOULD know by heart!))
Now you got me thinking about Santa Jokes. Here's one of my favorites.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Santa's Trip
There are approximately two billion children (persons under 18) in the world. However, since Santa does not visit children of Muslim, Hindu, Jewish or Buddhist (except maybe in Japan) religions, this reduces the workload for Christmas night to 15% of the total, or 378 million according to the population reference bureau). At an average (census) rate of 3.5 children per household, that comes to 108 million homes, presuming there is at least one good child in each.
Santa has about 31 hours of Christmas to work with, thanks to the different time zones and the rotation of the earth, assuming east to west (which seems logical). This works out to 967.7 visits per second. This is to say that for each Christian household with a good child, Santa has around 1/1000th of a second to park the sleigh, hop out, jump down the chimney, fill the stocking, distribute the remaining presents under the tree, eat whatever snacks have been left
for him, get back up the chimney, jump into the sleigh and get onto the next house.
Assuming that each of these 108 million stops is evenly distributed around the Earth (which, of course, we know to be false, but will accept for the purposes of our calculations), we are now talking about 0.78 miles per household; a total trip of 75.5 million miles, not counting bathroom stops or breaks. This means Santa's sleigh is moving at 650 miles per second--3,000 times the speed of sound. For purposes of comparison, the fastest man made vehicle, the Ulysses space probe, moves at a poky 27.4 miles per second, and a Conventional reindeer can run (at best) 15 miles per hour.
The payload of the Sleigh adds another interesting element. Assuming that each child gets nothing more than a medium sized LEGO set (two pounds), the sleigh is carrying over 500 thousands tons, not counting Santa himself. On land, a conventional reindeer can pull no more than 300 pounds. Even granting that the "flying" reindeer can pull 10 times the normal amount, the job can't be done with eight or even nine of them---Santa would need 360,000 of them. This increases the payload, not counting the weight of the sleigh, another 54,000 tons, or roughly seven times the weight of the Queen Elizabeth (the ship, not the monarch). 600,000 tons traveling at 650 miles per second creates enormous air resistance - this would heat up the reindeer in the same fashion as a spacecraft reentering the earth's atmosphere. The lead pair of reindeer would adsorb 14.3 quintillion joules of energy per second each. In short, they would burst into flames almost instantaneously, exposing the reindeer behind them and creating deafening sonic booms in their wake. The entire reindeer team would be vaporized within 4.26 thousandths of a second, or right about the time Santa reached the fifth house on his trip.
Not that it matters, however, since Santa, as a result of accelerating from a dead stop to 650 miles per second in .001 seconds, would be subjected to acceleration forces of 17,000 g's. A 250 pound Santa (which seems ludicrously slim) would be pinned to the back of the sleigh by 4,315,015 pounds of force, instantly crushing his bones and organs and reducing him to a quivering blob of pink goo.

Six retired Floridians were playing poker in the Condo clubhouse when Meyerwitz loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest and drops dead at the table. Showing respect for their fallen comrade, the other five complete their playing time standing up.
Finkelstein looks around and asks, "Now, who is going to tell the wife?" They draw straws and Goldberg picks the short one. They tell him to be discreet, be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse. "Gentlemen! Discreet? I'm the most discreet mensch you will ever meet. Discretion is my middle name, leave it to me."
Goldberg goes over to the Meyerwitz apartment, knocks on the door, the wife answers, and asks what he wants. Goldberg declares, "Your husband just lost $500, and is afraid to come home."
A new monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. He notices, however, that they are copying copies, not the original books.
So, the new monk goes to the head monk to ask him about this. He points out that if there were an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the other copies.
The head monk says, "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son." So the head monk goes down into the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original.
Hours later, nobody has seen him. So, one of the monks goes downstairs to look for him. He hears sobbing coming from the back of the cellar, and
finds the old monk leaning over one of the original books crying. He asks, "What's wrong?"

Once upon a time there were three little pigs. The straw pig, the stick pig
and the brick pig.
One day this nasty old wolf came up to the straw pig's house and said, "I'm
gonna huff and puff and blow your house down." And he did!!!
So the straw pig went running over to the stick pig's house and said,
"Please let me in, the wolf just blew down my house." So the stick Pig let
the straw pig in. Just then the wolf showed up and said, "I'm gonna huff and
puff and blow your house down." And he did!!!
So the straw pig and the stick pig went running over to the brick pig's
house and said, "Let us in, let us in, the big bad wolf just blew our
houses down!"
So the brick pig let them in just as the wolf showed up. The wolf said,
"I'm gonna huff and puff and blow your house down." The straw pig and the
stick pig were so scared!
But the brick pig picked up the phone and made a call. A few minutes passed
and a big, black stretch limo pulls up. Out step two massive pigs in pin
striped suits and fedora hats. These pigs come over to the wolf, grab him
by the neck and beat the living $hit out of him, then one of them pulled
out a gun, stuck it in his mouth and fired, killing the wolf, then they got
back into their limo and drove off.
The straw pig and stick pig were amazed!!! "Who the hell were those
guys?" they asked.
"Those were my cousins from Jersey ... the Guinea Pigs."

As a software engineer is walking along, he looks down and sees a frog.
The frog says, "Ahem. Excuse me! If you kiss me, I'll turn into a beautiful princess and make you very happy!"
He picks up the frog and puts it into his pocket.
A while later, he takes out the frog and the frog says, "Hey! Kiss me! I'll turn back into a beautiful princess, and we'll have wild times together!"
He puts the frog back in his pocket.
A while later he takes the frog out, and the frog says, "Kiss me, and we'll make love all night long every night!"
He puts the frog back in his pocket.
A while later he takes it out again, and the frog asks, "What is wrong with you? why won't you kiss me?"
He says, "I work for Microsoft, I don't have time for a girlfriend. A talking frog, though, is way kewel!"

A foursome of elderly gentlemen came back after a round of golf. At the 19th
hole in the Clubhouse, the Pro asked them, "How did your game go?"
The first said he had a good round with 25 riders. The second said he did OK
with 16 riders. The third said not too bad since I had 10 riders. The fourth
was disappointed and said that he played badly with only two riders.
The Pro was confounded by this term "rider" but not wanting to show his
ignorance just smiled and wish them better golf the next time. He then
approached Jerry the bartender and asked, "Jerry, can you tell me what does
this term 'riders' mean?" Jerry smiled and explained that a "rider" is when
you have hit a shot long enough to take a ride on a golf cart.

While on a car trip, an old couple stopped at a roadside
restaurant for lunch. The old woman unfortunately left her
glasses on the table, but didn't miss them until they were
back on the highway. By then, they had to travel quite a
distance before they could find a place to turn around.
The old man fussed and complained all the way back to the
restaurant.
When they finally arrived, as the old woman got out of the
car to retrieve her glasses, the old man said, "While you're
in there, you might as well get my hat, too."

A man was driving along a rural road one day when he saw a
three legged chicken. He was amused enough to drive along
side it for a while, as he was driving he noticed the
chicken was running 30 mph. Pretty fast chicken, he thought,
I wonder just how fast it can run. So he sped up and the
chicken did too! They were now moving along the road at 45
mph! The man in the car sped up again, to his surprise the
chicken was still running ahead of him at 60 mph!!!
Suddenly the chicken turned off the road and ran down a long
driveway leading to a farmhouse. The man followed the
chicken to the house and saw a man in the yard and dozens of
three legged chickens. The man in the car called out to the
farmer "How did you get all these three legged chickens?"
The farmer replied, "I breed 'em. Ya see it's me, my wife
and my son living here and we all like to eat the chicken
leg. Since a chicken only has two legs, I started breeding
this three legged variety so we could all eat our favorite
piece."
"That's amazing!" said the driver "How do they taste?"
"Don't rightly know, can't catch 'em."

Golfer: "How do you like my game?"

Shyness Test
A very shy young man goes into a bar, sees a beautiful woman sitting alone.
After an hour of gathering his courage he approaches her and asks, "Mind if I
sit with you and chat?"
The woman looks up at him and screams, "No, I won't sleep with you
tonight!!!"
Everyone in the crowded room turns and stares at the hapless fellow and the
woman. The young man is hopelessly embarrassed as he slinks back to his seat.
After a few minutes the woman gets up and approaches the still red faced
fellow.
She smiles, "Sorry I exploded like that but I'm a graduate student in
psychology and I'm doing research. I'm studying people's response to
embarrassing situations."
The young man nods and shouts, "Whattaya mean 200 dollars!!!" >>

Two men get on a plane and go to coach...they peer into first class and see a gentleman in a funny hat reading the paper.
"Look, there's the Pope," says one.
"Can't be," says the other.
"I swear that's the Pope," says the one.
"I'm very sure the Pope is going to fly commercial," says the other.
"I'm certain that's the Pope," says the the one, "I'm going up to ask him!"
He saunters up to first class, sticks his head through the curtain, and adresses the gentleman, "Excuse me sir, aren't you the Pope?"
The gentleman puts down his paper, glowers at him, and says, "Why don't you just f**k off!!"
The man goes back to his seat.
"Well, was it the Pope?" the other man asked.
"I don't know, he wouldn't say"

Q. How do you identify a bald eagle?
A. All of his feathers are combed to one side.
Q. What do you do if your girlfriend starts smoking?
A. Slow down and, perhaps, try using lubrication.
Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs,
and Hillary got $8 million for hers.
That's $20 million for two people who for eight years
repeatedly testified they couldn't remember anything.
Q. Have you heard about the amazing new discovery?
A. It's a pill that is half aspirin and half glue for people
who have splitting headaches.
A man approached a local in a village he was visiting.
"What's the quickest way to York?"
The local scratched his head.
"Are you walking or driving?" he asked the stranger.
"I'm driving."
"That's the quickest way!"

A rich couple was going out for the evening when the woman
of the house decided to give the butler, Jeeves, the rest
of the night off. She said they would be home very late
and he should just enjoy his night. Well, as it turned out
the wife wasn't having a good time at the party, and came
home early. As she walks into the house she sees Jeeves
sitting by himself in the dining room. She calls for him to
follow her. She leads him into the master bedroom, where
she closes and locks the door. She looks at him and smiles.
"Jeeves. Take off my dress." He does this carefully.
"Jeeves. Take off my stockings and garter." He silently
obeys her. "Jeeves. Take off my bra and panties." Again,
he silently obeys her. The tension was really getting tight
as she smiles and look at Jeeves. "Jeeves" she said "If I
ever catch you wearing my clothes again, you're fired"

An escaped convict, imprisoned for 1st degree murder, has spent
25years of his life sentence in prison. He escapes, and while on the run,
breaks into a house and ties up a young couple who had been sleeping in the
bedroom. He ties the man to a chair on one side of the room and his wife on
thebed. He got on the bed right over the woman and it appeared he was kissing
her neck.
Suddenly he got up and left the room. As soon as possible, the
husband made his way across the room to his bride, his chair in tow, and
whispered, "Honey, this guy hasn't seen a woman in years. I saw him kissing
your neck and then he left in a hurry. Just cooperate and do anything he
wants.
If he wants sex with you, just go along with it and pretend you like it.
Whatever you do don't fight him or make him mad.
Our lives depend on it! Be strong and I love you."
She says, "Dear, I'm so relieved you feel that way. You're right,
he hasn't seen a woman in years, but he wasn't kissing my neck...
He was whispering in my ear. He said he thinks you're really cute
and asked if we kept the vaseline in the bathroom.
Be strong, and I love you too

excathedra
A new monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. He notices, however, that they are copying copies, not the original books.
So, the new monk goes to the head monk to ask him about this. He points out that if there were an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the other copies.
The head monk says, "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son." So the head monk goes down into the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original.
Hours later, nobody has seen him. So, one of the monks goes downstairs to look for him. He hears sobbing coming from the back of the cellar, and
finds the old monk leaning over one of the original books crying. He asks, "What's wrong?"
"The word is CELEBRATE," says the old monk.

Steve!
A man joins a monastery, to become a monk.
The abbott there says, "We have a vow of silence. You may speak only 2 words every 5 years."
The man agrees.
5 years go by, and the abbott says, "What would you like to say?"
He says, "Cold food." The abbott says, "I'll look into it."
5 more years go by. The abbott says, "What would you like to say?"
The man says, "Hard bed." The abbott replies, "I'll take care of that."
5 more years, the abbott says, "What would you like to say?"
He says, "I QUIT!"
Abbott says, "Good, you've done nothing but complain since you got here!"
