March 6, 2009 2:40 am at 2:40 am #1172597kapustaParticipantThe Palestinian Authority just published its first stamp, with the
portrait of Chairman Arafat on it. After a while the Palestinian postal
service reported that the new stamps are having real problems
staying attached to the envelopes and keep falling off.
Arafat demanded an explanation for this, and his assistants
finally found out the reason: “Abu Amar, it seems the people are
spitting on the wrong side…

A man once asked Gandhi what he thought of Western civilization.
He replied, “I think it would be a good idea.”

March 6, 2009 9:27 am at 9:27 am #1172603JayMatt19ParticipantA man stops to ask directions from a farmer sitting on his porch and is amazed to see a three-legged pig sitting at the farmer’s feet. “That’s a weird-looking pig,” the man says. The farmer is furious. “Don’t you ever say anything bad about this pig!” he says. “Just last week my wife and I were sleeping, and a fire broke out. This pig dragged us both to safety. Last month a robber broke into the house. The pig knocked him down, dialed 911 with his snout and sat on him until the police arrived. So don’t ever say anything bad about him.”
“I’m sorry,” the man says. “But what’s the deal with the three legs?”
“Mister,” the farmer says, “a pig like this you don’t eat all at once.”

March 8, 2009 1:40 am at 1:40 am #1172606kapustaParticipantA church congregation sent out requests to all the professional painters listed in their local Yellow Pages, requesting a bid on a price to repaint their church building. Almost all of the painters were within a few dollars of their competition, as expected, with the exception of one well-known, well-established, local company, which had been in business for years and had an excellent reputation in the community. This particular painter’s bid was about half of what his competitions had bid, and naturally, was selected by the congregation to do the job.
On the morning the job began, the painter realized that he had underbid the job by 50%! Not wanting to lose the job, he decided to thin the paint out with water, so he would be able to complete the job for the price quoted.
One week later, he received a call from the priest, explaining that after the first rain, half of the paint had washed off the church. The painter returned, looked at the building, and sure enough, the job was ruined. He went inside to pray about the situation, knowing that his business’ reputation was on the line. “What can I possibly do, Lord?” prayed the discouraged businessman.
Suddenly, God, in a loud voice from the altar replied, “Repaint, and thin no more!”

In America all stamps are like stickers that dont need to be licked. in fact my sister’s kids love to play with stickers so she went to the post office and bought 100 1 cent stamps for $1.00, its her best going prize!!!
March 9, 2009 2:27 am at 2:27 am #1172610squeakParticipantMod39, I am beyond insulted. But not deterred. I am determined to keep at it until someone more qualified steps forward (u’malchuso yitain l’ru’uso hatov mimenu to paraphrase a timely phrase).
I’ll change tactics:
A man was walking down the street and he met a small boy. The man asked what was his name.
The boy replied, ‘six and seven-eighths.’
The man asked him why his parents had given him such a strange name, and he replied, ‘they just picked it out of a hat.’
A man walks into a bar and asks for a pint of lager and a packet of helicopter crisps.
‘Sorry’, said the barman, ‘we don’t have any helicopter crisps, we only have plane.’
A man goes into a fish and chip shop and says ‘Can I have fish and chips twice please?’
The shop owner says, ‘I heard you the first time.’
A policeman walked over to a parked car and asked the driver if the car was licensed. ‘Of course it is,’ replied the driver.
‘Great, I’ll have a pint then.’
March 9, 2009 2:41 am at 2:41 am #1172611squeakParticipantFor those of us safely on the other side of the pond, here is my worst:
A blind man with a seeing eye dog at his side walks into a grocery store. The man walks to the middle of the store, picks up the dog by the tail, and starts swinging the dog around in circles over his head. The store manager, who has seen all this, thinks this is quite strange. So, he decides to find out what’s going on. The store manager approaches the blind man swinging the dog and says, “Pardon me. May I help you with something.” The blind man says, “No thanks. I’m just looking around.”

March 9, 2009 1:48 pm at 1:48 pm #1172614aussieboyParticipant4 college students had an exam. They decided to go party instead and come up with an excuse the next day. They walk in the next day and tell the professor that they were driving to take the exam and a tire blew out and asked if he could give them a chance to take the test now. He agreed but let them know that the test would be a bit different, it would only have one question, if they answered it correctly they would pass, if not they would fail. They all agreed.
The next day he sat them all down in seperate corners of the room and handed them all a sheet with one question. “Which tire?”

March 11, 2009 6:25 pm at 6:25 pm #1172632squeakParticipantThe shamash from Chelm goes to visit Minsk and learn from the wise scholars there. He asks the first scholar he meets to share a bit of wisdom with him, and the scholar agrees. He offers a riddle: “He is my father’s son, but he is not my brother. Who is he?”
The shamash sits down to think this over. After pondering for many hours he admits that he is stumped.
The scholar then triumphantly says, “Why, it is ME”!
The shamash thanks the scholar profusely, and returns to his village armed with this clever riddle. When he arrives home, he gathers all the people and tells them that he has learned wisdom in Minsk and he would like to share it with them. Excitedly, he tells the riddle: “He is my father’s son, but he is not my brother. Who is he?”
The people think and think, but not one can come up with the answer. They beg the shamash to tell them the answer, and finally he agrees. “Why, it is the scholar from Minsk!”

March 11, 2009 7:35 pm at 7:35 pm #1172635kapustaParticipantareivim, yes what about it? 🙂
Three old ladies are sitting in a diner, chatting about various things. One lady says, “You know, I’m getting really forgetful. This morning, I was standing at the top of the stairs, and I couldn’t remember whether I had just come up or was about to go down.”
The second lady says, “You think that’s bad? The other day, I was sitting on the edge of my bed and I couldn’t remember whether I was going to sleep or had just woken up!”
The third lady smiles smugly, “Well, my memory is just as good as it’s always been, knock on wood,” she says as she raps on the table. Then with a startled look on her face, she asks, “Who’s there?”

March 11, 2009 8:34 pm at 8:34 pm #1172636ChattyMemberJoke I heard:
Wife: How come you never tell me that you love me?
Husband: Didn’t I tell you in the Yichud room when we got married that I love you?
Wife: Yes, so?
Husband: Did I tell you that I would change my mind?

March 12, 2009 9:07 pm at 9:07 pm #1172648moish01Memberareivim, you’re already marrind if you already have a mother-in-law (another skeleton??) so the shadchans are gonna lay off for a while.
…unless you’re up to marrying off kids?? no way!
March 12, 2009 11:19 pm at 11:19 pm #1172649kapustaParticipantA couple was getting married, and it was only
three days before the wedding. The bride calls her mother with some bad news. “Mom,” she says, “I just found out that my fiance’s mother has bought the exact same dress as you to wear to the wedding.”
The bride’s mother thinks for a minute. “Don’t worry,” she tells her daughter. “I’ll just go and buy another dress to wear to the ceremony.”
“But mother,” says the bride, “that dress cost a fortune. What will you do with it? It’s such a waste not to use it.”
“Who said I won’t use it?” her mother asked.
“I’ll just wear it to the rehearsal dinner.”

I accept! all kapustas titles, queen, board member, and now joke of the day gabbai (is gabbai also for females?)
btw, I never actually said your jokes were so awful, but I think you got voted down because you made such high standards for yourself with your own humor (yes, there was a compliment in there,) 🙂
