You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night,when you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for the bus:1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.2. An old friend who once saved your life.3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that therecould only be one passenger in your car? Think before you continue reading.This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as partof a job application. You could pick up the old lady, because she isgoing to die, and thus you should save her first. Or you could takethe old friend because he once saved your life, and this would bethe perfect chance to pay him back. However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS...................The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no troublecoming up with his answer. He simply answered: 'I would give the carkeys to my old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. Iwould stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams.'
Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations.Never forget to 'Think Outside of the Box.'
HOWEVER...., The correct answer is to run the old lady over and puther out of her misery, have sex with the perfect partner on the hoodof the car, then drive off with the old friend for a few beers.God, I just love happy endings!

Apartment for Rent
A businessman met a beautiful girl and agreed to spend
The night with her for $500. They did their thing,
And, before he left, he told her that he did
Not have any cash with him, but he would have his
Secretary write a check and mail it to her, calling
The payment 'RENT FOR APARTMENT.'
On the way to the office, he regretted what he had
done, realizing that the whole event had not been
worth the price. So he had his secretary send a check
For $250 and enclose the following typed note:
'Dear Madam:
Enclosed find a check for $250 for rent of your
Apartment.. I am not sending the amount agreed upon,
Because when I rented the place, I was under the
Impression that:
#1 - it had never been occupied;
#2 - there was plenty of heat; and
#3 - it was small enough to make me feel cozy and at home.
However, I found out that:
#1 - it had been previously occupied,
#2 - there wasn't any heat, and
#3 - it was entirely too large.'
Upon receipt of the note, the girl immediately
Returned the check for $250 with the following note:
' Dear Sir:
#1 - I cannot understand how you could expect a
Beautiful apartment to remain unoccupied indefinitely.
#2 - As for the heat, there is plenty of it, if you
Know how to turn it on.
#3 - Regarding the space, the apartment is indeed of
Regular size, but if you don't have enough furniture
To fill it, please do not blame the management.
So, Please send the rent in full or we will be forced
To contact your present landlady
Think about it!
Think about this:
1. Cows
2. The Constitution
3. The Ten Commandments
------------------------------------------------------------------------
COWS
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during
the mad cow epidemic our government could track a single cow, born in
Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she slept
in the state of Washington ? And, they tracked her calves to their stalls. But
they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around
our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE CONSTITUTION
They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq ... Why
don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart
guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE 10 COMMANDMENTS
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in
a courthouse or Congress is this --you cannot post 'Thou Shalt Not
Steal' 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery' and 'Thou Shall Not Lie' in a
building full of lawyers, judges and politicians ...... it creates a
hostile work environment.

The 11th husband
A young man married a beautiful woman who had previously divorced 10 husbands.
On their wedding night, she told her new husband to "Please be gentle; I'm still a virgin".
"What?" said the puzzled groom. "How can that be if you've been married ten times.?"
"Well, husband No.1 was a Sales Representative; he kept telling me how great it was going to be.
"Husband No.2 was in Software Services; he was never really sure how it was supposed to function; but he said he'd look into it and get back with me.
"Husband No.3 was from Field Services; he said that everything checked out diagnostically but he just couldn't get the system up.
"Husband No.4 was in Telemarketing; even though he knew he had the order, he didn't know when he would be able to deliver.
"Husband No.5 was an Engineer, he understood the basic process but he wanted three years to research, implement, and design a new state of the-art method.
"Husband No.6 was from Administration; he thought he knew how but he wasn't sure whether it was his job or not.
"Husband No.7 was in Marketing; although he had a product, he was never sure how to position it.
"Husband No.8 was a Psychiatrist; all he did was talk about it.
"Husband No.9 was a Gynaecologist; all he did was look at it.
"Husband No.10 was a Stamp Collector; all he ever did was lick it. --- God I miss him.
" But now that I've married you, I'm so excited".
"Wonderful", said the husband, "but why?
"You're with the "GOVERNMENT"..
This time I KNOW I'M gonna get SCREWED!

Billy Joe's great song
Click here for this great song We Didn't Start the Fire. It really represents the first part of our generation.
Whether you are a Billy Joel fan or not, you probably remember his great song, 'We Didn't Start the Fire.'
Here it is, set to pictures... very, very cool. Had to share this one. It's a neat flashback through the past half century. I never did know the words. Turn up volume, sit back and enjoy a review of 50 years of history in less than 3 minutes! Thanks to Billy Joel and some guy from the University of Chicago with a lot of spare time and Google.

Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.

12 Italian prists
Twelve Italian priests were about to be ordained. The final test was for
them to line up in a straight row, totally nude, in a garden while a
sexy, beautiful, big breasted, nude model danced before them.....
Each priest had a small bell attached to his weenie,
and they were told that anyone whose bell rang
when she danced in front of them would not be ordained
because he had not reached a state of spiritual purity.
The beautiful model danced before the first candidate with no reaction.
She proceeded down the line with the same response from all the priestsuntil she got to the final priest, Carlos. Poor Carlos.
As she danced,his bell began to ring so loudly that it flew off,
clattering across the ground and laid to rest in nearby foliage.
Embarrassed, Carlos quickly scrambled to where the bell came to rest.
He bent over to pick it up...

内地政冶笑話四則
網友傳來幾則內地的政治笑話,具中國特色,具創意,也能引起聯想,笑話如下:
1. 毛主席臨終
毛主席臨終前把鄧小平叫到床邊說:「平平,有件事我放心不下,我擔心黨內有些同志不願跟著你走。」
小平回答:「放心吧,東哥,不願跟我走的我讓他跟你走!」
2. 你進來,我出去
胡錦濤去看毛澤東,拉開水晶棺說:「毛叔,天上沙塵不散、地上污染不斷、北方缺水大旱、南方雪雨泛濫、奧運聖火難看、西藏喇嘛亂竄、官員貪污扯爛、人民暴動千萬、股市一片混亂、黑心商品太爛、港澳不聽使喚、地方政府蠻幹、台灣民主單幹、美帝逼我一戰,我該怎麼辦?」
毛說:「你進來,我出去,嚇死這群王八蛋!」
3. 兩頭牛
話說胡錦濤到農村視察,他想知道人民對黨的忠誠度,就問一位農夫:「如果你有兩畝田地,你願意奉獻其中一畝給偉大的黨嗎?」
農夫答:「噢,是的,我願意。」
胡又問:「如果你有兩幢房屋,你願意奉獻其中一幢給黨嗎?」
農夫答:「是的,我願意。」
胡又問:「如果你有兩部汽車,你願意奉獻其中一部給黨嗎?」
農夫答:「我願意。」
胡又問:「如果你有兩頭牛,你願意奉獻一頭給黨嗎?」
農夫答:「不,我不能。」
胡感奇怪地問:「你既然肯奉獻一畝田、一幢房子、一部車,為甚麼不肯奉獻一頭牛呢?」
農夫說:「因為我真的有兩頭牛啊!」
4. 江澤民是他的司機
江澤民還是國家主席的時候,一天因私外出,嫌司機車開的太慢,催促了好幾次。但因交通擁擠,還是不能讓他滿意。
最後江澤民一把搶過方向盤,把司機推到後面,自己開起來。他一路橫衝直撞,造成一片混亂。
有人打電話向交通局長反映。局長大怒,質問該地段交警。
局長:「看到肇事者沒有?」
警察:「看到了。」
局長:「爲什麽! 不逮捕他?」
警察:「我不敢?」
局長:「爲什麽?」
警察:「他的官很大。」
局長:「有多大?」
警察:「不知道,反正江澤民是他的司機。」
覺得好笑要大聲笑出來,否則會中內傷的!
哈 哈 哈.........

Top Jokes
A young man went to his father one day to tell him that
he wanted to get married.
His father was happy for him. He asked his son who the
girl was, and he told him that it was Samantha, a girl from
the neighborhood.
With a sad face the old man said to his son,
''I'm sorry to say this son but I have to. The
girl you want to marry is your sister, but please don't tell your mother.''
The young man again brought three more names to his
father but ended up frustrated because the response was
still the same.
So he decides to go to his mother.
''Mom I want to get married but all the girls that
I love, dad said they are my sisters and I mustn't tell
you.''
His mother smiling said to him,
''Don't worry my son, you can marry any of
those girls. You're not his son.
