He called the royal weather forecaster and asked about the upcoming weather conditions. The weatherman assured him that there was no chance of rain in the days ahead. So the King went fishing with his wife, the queen. On the way he met farmer on his donkey. Upon seeing the king the farmer said, "Your Majesty, you should return to the palace at once because in just short time I expect a huge amount of rain to fall in this area". The king was polite and considerate, he replied: "I hold the palace meteorologist in high regard. He is an extensively educated and experienced professional. And besides, I pay him Very high wages. He gave me a very different forecast. I trust him and I will continue on my Way." A short time later torrential rain fell from the sky. The king and queen were totally soaked. Their entourage chuckled upon seeing them in such a drenched condition. Furious, the king returned to the palace and fired the weatherman at once! Then he summoned the farmer and offered him the prestigious and high paying role of Royal Forecaster. The farmer said, "Your Majesty, I do not know anything about forecasting. I obtain my information From my donkey. If I see my donkey's ears drooping, it means with certainty that it will rain." So the king hired the donkey. And thus began the practice of hiring asses to work in the government and occupy its highest and most influential advisory positions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack goes to his friend Mike and says ..."I'm sleeping with the minister's wife. Can you keep him back in church for an hour after service for me?" Mike doesn't like it, but being a friend, he agrees. After the service, Mike starts talking to the minister, asking him all sorts of stupid questions, just to keep him occupied. Finally the minister gets annoyed and asks Mike what he's really up to. Mike, feeling guilty, finally confesses to the minister... "My friend is sleeping with your wife right now, so he asked me to keep you occupied." The minister thinks for minute, smiles, puts brotherly hand on Mike's shoulder and says... "You better hurry home now. My wife died a year ago". ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Baldrick: "What I want to know, Sir is, before there was Euro there were lots of different types of money that different people used. And now there's only one type of money that the foreign people use. And what I want to know is, how did we get from one state of affairs to the other state of affairs" Blackadder: "Baldrick. Do you mean, how did the Euro start?" Baldrick: "Yes Sir" Blackadder: "Well, you see Baldrick, back in the 1980s there were many different countries all running their own finances and using different types of money. On one side you had the major economies of France, Belgium, Holland and Germany, and on the other, the weaker nations of Spain, Greece, Ireland, Italy and Portugal. They got together and decided that it would be much easier for everyone if they could all use the same money, have one Central Bank, and belong to one large club where everyone would be happy. This meant that there could never be situation whereby financial meltdown would lead to social unrest, wars and crises". Baldrick: "But this is sort of crisis, isn't it Sir?". Blackadder: "That's right Baldrick. You see, there was only one slight flaw with the plan". Baldrick: "What was that then, Sir?" Blackadder: "It was bollocks". ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Things Dad Would Never Say ... 10.) Well, how about that! I'm lost. Looks like we'll have to stop and ask for directions. 9.) You know, pumpkin. Now that you're thirteen, you'll be ready for unchaperoned car dates. Won't that be fun? 8.) I noticed that all your friends have a certain negative attitude. I like that! 7.) Here's a credit card and the keys to my new car. Go crazy! 6.) What do you mean you want to play football? Figure skating not good enough for you, son? 5.) Your Mother and I are going away for the weekend. You might want to consider throwing a party. 4.) Well, I don't know what's wrong with your car. Probably one of those doo-hickey thingies. You know, that makes it run or something. Just have it towed to a mechanic and pay whatever he asks. 3.) No son of mine is going to live under this roof without an earring. Now, quit your belly aching and let's go to the mall. 2.) What do you want to go and get a job for? I make plenty of money for you to spend. 1.) Father's Day? Ah, don't worry about that. It's not important. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- One evening a husband, thinking he was being funny, said to his wife 'Perhaps we should start washing your clothes in Slim Fast. Maybe it would take a few inches off of your butt!' His wife was not amused, and decided that she simply couldn't let such a comment go unrewarded. The next morning the husband took a pair of underwear out of his drawer. 'What the Hell is this??' he said to himself as a little 'dust' cloud appeared when he shook them out. 'April,' he hollered into the bathroom, 'why did you put talc*m powder in my underwear?' She replied with a snicker...'It's not talc*m powder...... It's 'Miracle Grow' ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
