At the construction job

Theres this cathedral thats still being worked on, and the workers have rigged a cage elevator inside so they can get material up and down to the upper floors. A characteristic of these cage elevators is that the doors (gate) must be closed manually for them to be called to another floor.

One day one of the workers, Peter by name, takes the elevator to the top floor, and it is subsequently needed on the first floor by the sexton. Unfortunately, Peter forgot and left the door open. After the sexton rings for the elevator a couple times, to no avail, he yells up for the worker to send the lift back down. Visitors to the cathedral were treated to this sight: The sexton of the cathedral, head tipped up, yelling up to the heavens:

Peter! CLOSE THE GATES!!!

Expressing Stupidity!

Lets face it, there are a lot of dumb people out there. Sometimes you want to express how stupid they really are and heres how…

An intellect rivaled only by garden tools.

As smart as bait.

Doesnt have all his dogs on one leash.

Doesnt know much, but leads the league in nostril hair.

Elevator doesnt go all the way to the top floor.

Forgot to pay his brain bill.

His belt doesnt go through all the loops.

If he had another brain, it would be lonely.

Missing a few buttons on his remote control.

Proof that evolution CAN go in reverse.

Receiver is off the hook.

Surfing in Nebraska.

An experiment in Artificial Stupidity.

A few beers short of a six-pack.

A few peas short of a casserole.

The cheese slid off his cracker.

Warning: Objects in mirror are dumber than they appear.

Couldnt pour piss out of a boot with instructions on the heel.

He fell out of the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down.

Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Old Ladies Nipple

One day poor old Lena decided she didnt want to be in this world any longer. She resolved to commit suicide. She figured the best way was to shoot herself in the heart…but she didnt know just where her heart was. She called a doctor for the information.

The doctor said that usually on a women, the heart is located about four inches below the left nipple.

Lena followed the directions perfectly and was therefore very surprised to regain consciousness in a hospital.

I should be dead! she wailed.

Dont worry, lady, the orderly answered, your knee will mend before you know it!

Y2K Ballad

(sing to the tune of Gilligans Island)

Just sit right back and youll hear a tale

Of the doom that is our fate.

That started when programmers used

Two digits for a date

Two digits for a date



RAM memory was smaller then;

Hard drives were tiny, too.

Four digits are extravagant,

So lets get by with two.

So lets get by with two.



This works through 1999,

The programmers did say.

Unless we write new code by then

The data goes away.

The data goes away.



But management had not a clue;

It works fine now, you bet!

Rewriting code cost money,

We wont do it just yet.

We wont do it just yet.



Now when 2000 rolls around

It all goes straight to hell,

For zero less then ninety-nine,

As anyone can tell.

As anyone can tell.



The mail wont bring your pension check;

It wont be sent to you

When youre no longer sixty-eight

But minus thirty-two.

But minus thirty-two.



The problems were about to face

Are frightening, for sure.

And reading every line of codes

The only certain cure.

The only certain cure.



[[ key change, the big finish coming]]



Theres not much time, theres too much code,

And COBOL-coders, few.

When the century is finished,

We may be finished, too.

A pirate at the local bar discusses his past

A seaman meets a pirate in a bar, and talk turns to their adventures on the sea. The seaman notes that the pirate has a peg-leg, a hook, and an eye patch.

The seaman asks, So, how did you end up with the peg-leg? The pirate replies, We were in a storm at sea, and I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. Just as my men were pulling me out, a shark bit my leg off.

Wow! said the seaman. What about your hook? Well, replied the pirate, We were boarding an enemy ship and were battling the other sailors with swords. One of the enemy cut my hand off.

Incredible! remarked the seaman. How did you get the eye patch? A seagull dropping fell into my eye, replied the pirate.

You lost your eye to a seagull dropping?, the sailor asked incredulously. Well, said the pirate, it was my first day with my hook

Hot Air Balloon

Three men are in a hot air balloon. Soon, they find themselves lost in a canyon
somewhere.

One of the three men says, I have got an idea. We can call for help in this
canyon and the echo will carry our voices far. He leans over the basket and
yells out, Helllloooooo! Where are we?

They hear the echo several times. 15 minutes later, they hear this echoing
voice, Helllloooooo! You are lost!

One of the men says, That must have been a mathematician.

Puzzled, one of the other men asks, Why do you say that?

The man replies, For three reasons: 1) he took a long time to answer, 2) he was
absolutely correct, and 3) his answer was absolutely useless.
