Merry Christmas to everyone!
****************************************************************************************************************************************
As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection.
A thick slab of ham, a fresh bun, crisp lettuce and plenty of expensive, light brown, gourmet mustard. The corners of my jaw aching in anticipation, I carried it to the picnic table in our backyard, picked it up with both hands but was stopped by my wife suddenly at my side.
"Hold Johnny, (our six-week-old son), while I get my sandwich," she said.
I had him balanced between my left elbow and shoulder and was reaching again for the ham sandwich when I noticed a streak of mustard on my fingers. I love mustard. And I had no napkin.
I licked it off.
It was NOT mustard. No man ever put a baby down faster.
It was the first and only time I have sprinted with my tongue protruding.
With a washcloth in each hand I did the sort of routine shoeshine guys do, only I did it on my tongue.
Later my wife said, "Now you know why they call that mustard 'Poupon.'"

Halfway down the third bottle of wine and several hours later, Jan blurts out that her husband is really a cashier at Tesco’s. They live in a small apartment in Bromley and have a caravan parked on the front drive.
Sue, chastened and encouraged by her old friend's honesty, explains that she and Clive are both nursing care assistants in an old people’s home. They live in Peckham and take camping holidays in Kent .

The Italian Wedding
|

An old prospector shuffled into the town of
Indio, Texas leading a tired old mule. The old
man headed straight for the only saloon in town,
to clear his parched throat.
He walked up to the saloon and tied his old mule
to the hitch rail.
As he stood there, brushing some of the dust
from his face and clothes, a young gunslinger
stepped out of the saloon with a gun in one
and a bottle of whiskey in the other.
The young gunslinger looked at the old man and
laughed, saying, "Hey old man, can you dance?"
The old man looked up at the gunslinger and
said, "No son, I don't dance... never really
wanted to"
A crowd had gathered as the gunslinger grinned
and said, "Well, you old fool, you're gonna dance
now!" and started shooting at the old man's
feet.
The old prospector, not wanting to get a toe
blown off, started hopping around like a flea
on a hot skillet.
Everybody standing around was laughing.
When his last bullet had been fired, the young
gunslinger, still laughing, holstered his gun and
turned around to go back into the saloon.
The old man turned to his pack mule, pulled out a
double-barreled 12 gauge shotgun and cocked
both hammers.
The loud clicks carried clearly through the
desert air. The crowd stopped laughing
immediately.
The young gunslinger heard the sounds too, and
he turned around very slowly.
The silence was deafening. The crowd watched
as the young gunman stared at the old timer and
the large gaping holes of those twin 12 gauge
barrels.
The barrels of the shotgun never wavered in the
old man's hands, as he quietly said;
"Son, have you ever kissed a mule's ass?"
The gunslinger swallowed hard and said, "No
sir... but... I've always wanted to"
There are a few lessons for all of us here:
* Don't be arrogant.
* Don't waste ammunition.
* Whiskey makes you think you're smarter than you are.
*
Always make sure you know who is in control.
..
* And finally, Don't screw around with old folks;
they didn't get old by being stupid...
I just love a story with a happy ending, don't
you?

A young man was admitted to the E.R. with a foreign object lodged in his rectum. We'll skip over the details as to HOW it got there, but the young man did mutter something about how he slipped and fell in the shower, which caused the nurses and attending doctor to roll their eyes.
After the doctor had a chance to assess the situation, he asked the nurse to bring him the items he'd need to remove it.
She soon returned with at tray. On the tray was a speculum, a pair of rubber gloves and a bottle of beer.
The patient raised his eyebrows as he looked at the tray. "Hey doc, I can understand the speculum and gloves, but what's the beer for?"
The doctor took a look, saw there was indeed a bottle of Budweiser on the tray, opened the exam room door and yelled after the nurse, "Hey Nurse Adams, I asked you for a BUTT LIGHT!"
Another example of mis-communication, this time from real life...
An online friend of mine is from the southern States, and has quite the drawl. She was dining in a restaurant north of the Mason-Dixon line, and asked the waitress for some iced tea.
The waitress soon returned with a bottle of Asti Spumante!

her neighbor's male dog at her house while they were away on vacation.
She had a large house and believed that she could keep them apart. As she was drifting off to sleep she heard awful howling and moaning sounds. She rushed downstairs and found the dogs locked together, in obvious pain and unable to disengage as so frequently happens when they mate.
She was unable to separate them and perplexed as to what to do next. Although it was late, she called the vet, who answered in a very grumpy voice.
Having explained the problem to him, the vet said.. "Hang up the phone and place it down alongside the dogs. I will then call you back and the noise of the ringing will make the male lose his erection and he will withdraw."
"Do you think that will work?" she asked.
"It just worked for me" he replied.
