A man was flying his private airplane into New York City. However, the day was foggy and the air was smoggy, and he couldnt make out any landmarks. He became worried, as hed need to find a specific airfield in order to land his plane. As a New Yorker, he knew where it was in relation to other buildings, but as he couldnt see any other buildings through the fog, that was a moot point.Suddenly, a patch of fog cleared for a minute, and the man saw another man standing on what was obviously the roof of a very tall building. Hello, said the man in the airplane, can you tell me about where I am?The man on the building looked at him and said, Youre in an airplane.Thank you! called the man as he sped off in the right direction. He now knew exactly where he was. Directly over the Microsoft building.

A man came home from work early one day, and found his wife naked and
panting on the bed. Honey, she said, thinking quickly, I think Im
having a heart attack! While rushing to call the doctor, he nearly
stumbled over his crying four year old, who told him there was a naked
man in the closet. He ran to the closet, opened the door, and there was
his best friend. Damn it, Dave he shouted, Jills having a heart
attack and here you are scaring the hell out of the kids!

A lawyer had a client who was accused of bank robbery. He was caught with the money shortly after he left the bank. He stood and addressed the bench.
Your honor, my client is innocent of bank robbery. He was actually borrowing the money. He wanted to open an account at another bank which offered higher interest rates and needed at least $10,000. He would have paid back the money in a few years.

This joke could be offensive to Norwegians, but I can assure you its not.
Any Norwegian reader would just tell an even better joke about a Swede instead.
Read in a book about the Joke-war between Norway and Sweden.
Its mid December some year, and Norway has had a new ambassador in the USA
for about a month. He is, as a matter of fact not only new as ambassador
to the USA, he is a novice ambassador of any sort.
He is just about getting familiar with his
work, but hes not always sure about what to do. Suddenly the phone rings..
– Yees… he says, a bit confused. (His phone hardly ever rings.)
– Good morning Mr Ambassador. This is Mike Giordano from the New York Times.
Id like to know what you want for a Christmas present.
– Eh, Sveind (Yes, thats his name) said. Christmas present… Eh…
Im very sory Mike, I cant accept any gifts, but tanks anyway.
– Yes, of course… I understand, said Mike with a voice telling a deaf he
didnt understand at all, Bye then.
– Good bye Mike.
The day goes a usual. Sveind thought this was a bit unusual, but he soon
forgot about it, and went back to the normal ambassadoring.
The next morning the phone rings again.
– Yes, Sveind speaking.
– Hello Sveind. This is Mike Giordano from the New York Times again. Im
wondering if youre really serious about what you said yesterday?
– Ah.. Hello… Eh. Yes, unfortunately I meant it. You see, vere not
allowed to accept personal gifts. They could be seen as bribes, and
I dont vant to cause any scandal. Im very sorry, but I hope you understand.
– Yes, of course.. Sorry… Bye.
– Good bye.
That was funny, Sveind thought. Didnt he believe what I said? Maybe some
misunderstanding. After all my pronunciation isnt the best.
The next morning the phone rings again.
– Yes, Sveind heere.
– Hello Sveind. This is Mike Giordano again. I suppose you know what I want?
– Yes I know vhatt you want, Sveind said, not without irritation. I thought I
explained vhy I cant accept any gifts.
– Yes you did, but I dont think you….
– Yes I understand, Sveind said, quite angrily. I understand perfectly vell.
Vhat do you vant really? Do you vant to get rid of me, or vhat? Anyvay, you
vont have any success, I will go strictly by the book. No… Vait a
minute. Now I know. I vant a fruit bowl (He is sure a fruit bowl
is absolutely harmless, and wont cause any scandal.)
– A fruit bowl?? Are you serious??
– Yes. A fruit bowl. Is there anything vrong vith a fruit bowl?
– No. Nothing wrong, but a bit unusual maybe..
– Unusual?? Vell that doesnt matter, does it?
– No. Of course not. Merry Christmas then, and bye bye.
– Good bye, and eh, Merry Christmas.
A few days later, this could be read in the New York Times.
