Don't Blame Congress

"I don't blame congress. If I had $600 billion, I'd be irresponsible too."

God Created Man

On the first day, God created the dog. God said, “Sit all day at the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past, I will give you a lifespan of 20 years.”

The dog said, “That’s too long to be barking. Give me 10 years and I’ll give you back the other 10. So God agreed.

On the second day, God created the monkey. God said, “Entertain people. Do monkey tricks and make them laugh. I’ll give you a lifespan of 20 years.”

The monkey said, “How boring. Monkey tricks for 20 years? I don’t think so. Dog gave you back 10, so that’s what I’ll do too. OK? And God agreed.

On the third day, God created the cow. God said, “You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of 60 years.”

The cow said, “That’s a tough life you want me to live for 60 years. Let me have 20 and I’ll give back the other 40. And Gad agreed again.

On the fourth day, God created man. God said, “Eat, sleep, play. Marry and enjoy your life. I’ll give you 20 years.

Man said, “Only 20 years? Tell you what. I’ll take my 20, as well as the 40 cow gave back, the 10 the monkey gave back and the 10 the dog gave back. That makes 80.”

“OK,” God said. “You’re got a deal.”

That’s why the first 20 years we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves. For the next 40 years we slave in the sun to support our family. Then, for the next 10 years, we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren, our last 10 years, we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.

Leopard vs. Poodle

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her poodle along for company.

One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long, discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a hungry-looking leopard heading rapidly in his direction.

The poodle thinks, "Oh, oh!" Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap, the poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?"

Hearing this, the leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!” says the leopard, "That was close! That poodle nearly had me!"

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the poodle sees him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.

The leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back so you can watch me chew that poodle to bits!"

Now, the poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?", but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and waits until they get just close enough to hear.

"Where's that damn monkey?" the poodle says, "I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"

Hot Enough For You?

After dying a grisly death in an Afghan cave, Osama made his way to the pearly gates.

There, he was greeted by George Washington.

"How dare you attack the nation I helped conceive!" yelled Washington, slapping Osama in the face.

Patrick Henry came up from behind. "You wanted to end America's liberty, so they gave you death!" Henry punched Osama in the nose.

James Madison came next, and said, "This is why I allowed the government provide for the common defense!" He took a sledge hammer and whacked Osama's knees.

Osama was subjected to similar beatings from John Randolph, James Monroe, and 65 other people who had the same love for liberty and America. As he writhed on the ground, Thomas Jefferson hurled him back toward the gate where he was to be judged.

As Osama awaited his journey to his final very hot destination, he screamed, "This is not what I was promised!"

An angel replied, "I told you there would be 72 Virginians waiting for you. What did you think I said?"
