University assignments

There was a university in New England where the students operated a bank of term papers and other homework assignments. There were papers to suit all needs and as it would look odd if an undistinguished student suddenly handed in a brilliant essay, there were papers for an A grade, B grade and C grade.

A student who had spent the weekend on pursuits other than his assignment, went to the bank and as his course was a standard one he took out a paper for a inconspicious C, retyped it and handed the work in.

In due course he received it back with the professors comments I wrote this paper myself twenty years ago. I always thought it should have had an A, and now I am glad to give it one!

Mad Cows

(I hope youve all been following the latest European agricultural problems.)

So there were these two cows, chatting over the fence between their fields.
The first cow said, I tell you, this mad-cow-disease is really pretty
scary. They say it is spreading fast; I heard it hit some cows down on
the Johnson Farm.

The other cow replies, Hell, I aint worried, it dont affect us ducks.

Diplomacy

[The following, possibly apocryphal story appeared in this mornings
(28/03/91) Glasgow Herald.]

Lord George Brown, when the band struck up at an embassy function,
asked: Beautiful lady in scarlet, will you waltz with me?

Certainly not, was the reply. First, you are drunk. Second, it
is not a waltz, but the Venezualan national anthem; and third, I am
not a beautiful lady in scarlet, but the papal nuncio.

What is God?

One morning at church, the pastor was preaching about what God was and wasnt.

He said God is neither white, nor black. God is neither male nor female.

After hearing all this, a curious 5 year old turned to his dad and asked -Daddy, is God Michael Jackson?

Coyboy In Church

One Sunday a cowboy went to church. When he entered, he saw that he and the preacher were the only ones present. The preacher asked the cowboy if he wanted him to go ahead and preach.

The cowboy said, Im not too smart, but if I went to feed my cattle and only one showed up, Id feed him.

So the minister began his sermon.

One hour passed, then two hours, then two-and-a-half hours. The preacher finally finished and came down to ask the cowboy how he liked the sermon.

The cowboy answered slowly, Well, Im not very smart, but if I went to feed my cattle and only one showed up, I sure wouldnt feed him all the hay.

Un fsico, un qumico y

Un físico, un químico y un informático van en coche por la carretera. De repente, el auto comienza a hacer un ruido extraño. Detienen el coche, y dejando el motor en marcha, empiezan a elaborar hipótesis sobre lo que está sucediendo. El físico dice:

Evidentemente, es un problema de rozamiento entre los pistones lo que provoca el ruido. Este coche necesita cuanto antes un ajuste de motor.

El químico replica:

No estoy tan seguro. Creo que el ruido se debe a que la gasolina está mal mezclada. Deberíamos agregar un aditivo especial al tanque de combustible.

El informático opina:

Yo diría que mejor lo apagamos, lo encendemos, lo apagamos, lo encendemos, lo apagamos, lo encendemos…

La hiena es un animal

La hiena es un animal que vive en el norte de África; come carroña y se aparea una vez al año, expone la maestra a sus alumnos.

A ver, Jaimito, ¿qué entendiste?

La hiena es un animal que vive en África; come carne podrida, y se aparea una vez al año.

¡Muy bien, Jaimito! Tú, Pablito.

La hiena es un animal que vive lejos, en África, creo; come carne podrida y ve a su pareja una vez al año.

Mmm… Bueno, has aprendido algo. ¿Y tú, Pepito?

Yo sólo tengo una pregunta maestra: la hiena, con lo lejos que vive, la porquería que come y lo poco que ve a su pareja, ¿de qué carajos se ríe?
