En un restaurante estaban un tipo, su esposa y un pingüino. Se acerca un mesero y pregunta:

¿Puedo tomar su orden caballero?

“Mire, a mí deme un filete, a la señora otro y al pingüino quinientos”.

Muy bien, señor. ¿Y de tomar?

Para mí una cerveza, a la señora otra y al pingüino mil.

¿De postre?

Para mí una rebanada de pastel, otra para mi esposa y al pingüino 200 plátanos.

Muy bien, señor.

Al momento de entregar la cuenta, intrigado, el mesero se dirige al comensal:

“Señor, ¿le puedo hacer una pregunta?”

“Sí”.

“¿Por qué tiene un pingüino?”

“Pues, mire, yo me encontré una lampara mágica; cuando la froté salió un genio que me concedió tres deseos: primero le pedí tener mucho dinero, ya ve usted que hasta en efectivo le pagué”.

“Es cierto. Oiga, ¿y el segundo cuál fue?”

“El segundo fue tener una esposa muy bonita y de buen cuerpo. Ya lo ve usted (dirige la mirada hacia su esposa).”

“Tiene razón, ¿y el tercer deseo?”

“Ése fue mi error, yo pedí tener un pajarote muy grande e insaciable, y ya ve usted, me mandó a este pinche pingüino”.

BECAUSE IM A GUY Because Im a guy, I must hold the television remote control in my hand while I watch TV. If the thing has been misplaced, Ill miss a whole show looking for it, though one time I was able to survive by holding a calculator.

Because Im a guy, when I lock my keys in the car I will fiddle with a wire clothes hanger and ignore your suggestions that we call a road service until long after hypothermia has set in. Oh, and when the car isnt running very well, I will pop the hood and stare at the engine as if I know what Im looking at. If another guy shows up, one of us will say to the other, I used to be able to fix these things, but now with all these computers and everything, I wouldnt know where to start. We will then drink beer.



Because Im a guy, when I catch a cold I need someone to bring me soup and take care of me while I lie in bed and moan. You never get as sick as I do, so for you this isnt an issue.



Because Im a guy, I can be relied upon to purchase basic groceries at the store, like milk or bread. I cannot be expected to find exotic items like cumin or tofu. For all I know these are the same thing. And never, under any circumstances, expect me to pick up anything for which feminine hygiene product is a euphemism.



Because Im a guy, when one of our appliances stops working I will insist on taking it apart — despite evidence that this will just cost me twice as much once the repair person gets here and has to put it back together.



Because Im a guy, I dont think were all that lost, and no, I dont think we should stop and ask someone. Why would you listen to a complete stranger — how the heck could HE know where were going?



Because Im a guy, there is no need to ask me what Im thinking about. The answer is always either sex or football, though I have to make up something else when you ask, so dont.



Because Im a guy, I do not want to visit your mother, or have your mother come visit us, or talk to her when she calls, or think about her any more than I have to. Whatever you got her for Mothers Day is okay, I dont need to see it. Did you remember to pick up something for my mom, too?



Because Im a guy, I am capable of announcing, one more beer and I really have to go, and mean it every single time I say it, even when it gets to the point that the one bar closes and my buddies and I have to go hunt down another. I will find it increasingly hilarious to have my pals call you to tell you Ill be home soon, and no, I dont understand why you threw all my clothes into the front yard. Whats the connection?



Because Im a guy, you dont have to ask me if I liked the movie. Chances are, if youre crying at the end of it, I didnt.



Because Im a guy, yes, I have to turn up the radio when Bruce Springsteen or The Doors comes on, and then, yes, I have to tell you every single time about how Bruce had his picture on the cover of Time and Newsweek the same day, or how Jim Morrison is buried in Paris and everyone visits his grave. Please do not behave as if you do not find this fascinating.



Because Im a guy, I think what youre wearing is fine. I thought what you were wearing five minutes ago was fine, too. Either pair of shoes is fine. With the belt or without it looks fine. Your hair is fine. You look fine. Can we just go now?



Because Im a guy and this is, after all, the 90s, I will share equally in the housework. You do the laundry, the cooking, the cleaning and the dishes. Ill do the rest.

A farmer had 3 beautiful daughters who were getting ready to go out on dates. The first beau came to the door and said, Im Eddie, Im here to pick up Betty. Were going for spaghetti, is she ready? No. The second beau came to the door and said, Im Joe, Im here to pick up Flo to take her to the show. Is she ready to go? No. The third beau came to the door and said to the farmer. Hello, my name is Chuck. The farmer shot Chuck.

Those who live by the sword get shot by those who dont. I feel like Im diagonally parked in a parallel universe. Hes not dead, hes electroencephalographically challenged. Shes always late. Her ancestors arrived on the Juneflower. You have the right to remain silent….Anything you say will be misquoted, then used against you. I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges. Honk if you love peace and quiet. Nothing is fool-proof to a sufficiently talented fool. A day without sunshine is like, you know, night. Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

G. W. Bush was very depressed that people were saying he is stupid. So he calls his good friend Queen Elizabeth, who says, "Now George, what you need to do is to surround yourself with smart people. Let me show you."

She conference calls Tony Blair in and asks, "Tony, your parents had a baby. It isnt your sister and it isnt your brother. Who is it?"

Tony Blair replies, "Its me!" and hangs up.

G.W. Bush then calls Dick Cheney and says, "Dick, your parents had a baby. It isnt your sister and it isnt your brother. Who is it?"

And Cheney says, "Wow, thats a tough one. Let me get back to you."

So Cheney calls Colin Powell and says, "Colin, your parents had a baby. It isnt your sister and it isnt your brother. Who is it?"

And Colin Powell says, "Its me!"

So Cheney calls Bush and says, "Its Colin Powell."

And Bush says, "No, you idiot! Its Tony Blair!"
