Forrest Gump was sent on his way to
Heaven.

Upon
his arrival, a concerned St Peter met Forrest at the Pearly Gates. 'I'm sorry
Forrest' St Peter said; 'But Heaven is suffering from an overload of goodly
souls and we have been forced to put up an Entrance Exam for new arrivals to
ease the burden of Heavenly Arrivals.'

'That's Cool' said Forrest. 'What does the Entrance
Exam consist of?'

'Just 3 Questions' said St Peter.
'Which are?' asked Forrest.
'The
first' said St Peter, ' Is, which two days of the week start with the letter
'T'?

The second is: How many seconds are there in a
year?

The third is: What was the name of the swagman in
Waltzing Matilda?

Now,' said St Peter, 'Go away and think about those
questions and when I call upon you, I shall expect you to have those answers for
me.'

So Forrest went away and gave those three questions
some considerable thought (I expect you to do the same).

The
following morning, St Peter called upon Forrest and asked if he had considered
the questions, to which Forrest replied, 'I have.

'Well then,'said St Peter, 'Which two days of the
week start with the letter T?'
 
Forrest said, 'Today and
Tomorrow.'

St Peter pondered this answer for some time, and
decided that indeed the answer can be applied to the
question.

'Well then Forrest, could I have your answer to the
second of the three questions?' St Peter went on, 'how many seconds in a
year?'

Forrest replied, 'Just 12!'
'Only 12?' exclaimed St Peter, 'How did you arrive at
that figure Forrest?'
 
'Easy' said Forest, 'there's the
second of January, the second of February right through to the second of
December, giving a total of twelve seconds.'

St
Peter looked at Forrest and said, 'I need some time to consider your answer
before I can give you a decision.' And he walked away shaking his
head.

A short time later St Peter returned to Forrest.
'I'll allow the answer to stand Forrest, but you need to get the third and final
question absolutely correct to be allowed into Heaven.

Now
Forrest, can you tell me the answer to the name of the swagman in Waltzing
Matilda?'

Forrest replied: 'Of the three questions, I found
this the easiest to answer.'

'Really!' exclaimed St Peter, 'And what is the
answer, Forrest?'

'It's Andy.'
'Andy??'
'Yes, Andy' said Forrest
This
totally floored St Peter, and he paced this way and that, deliberating the
answer. Finally, he could not stand the suspense any longer, and turning to
Forrest, asked 'Forrest, how in God's name did you arrive at THAT
answer?'

'Easy' said Forrest 'Andy sat, Andy watched, Andy
waited till his Billy boiled.'

And
Forrest entered Heaven...

A man has both ears ripped off in a rugby match and is rushed to the
Doctor.

The doctor says ' Well, your ear holes are OK so all we need to
do now is find you some donor ears'

A couple of days goes by and the doc
rings up the man and says'Good news.....I've found you some ears.'

The
man says 'what sort of ears are they?'

'Well' says the Doc,' One is from
a dog and the other is a pig's ear. But don't worry, you've got long hair so no
one will see them.'

So the Doctor stitches them on and asks the man how
they are, to which he replies...

'Well this dog's ear is amazing! I can
hear a whisper from ten miles away!'

The Doctor says 'what about the pig's
ear?'

and the man says...

'Ah, well...I'm getting a lot of crackling in
that one!'

Subject: This isnt a joke as such, it is an actual true letter........i hope it makes you smile either way lol
Rt Rt Hon David Miliband MP
Secretary of State,

Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA),

Nobel House

17 Smith Square

London SW1P 3JR

16 May 2007


Dear Secretary of State,


My
friend, who is in farming at the moment, recently received a cheque for
£3,000 from the Rural Payments Agency for not rearing pigs. I would now
like to join the "not rearing pigs" business.


In your
opinion, what is the best kind of farm not to rear pigs on, and which
is the best breed of pigs not to rear? I want to be sure I approach
this endeavour in keeping with all government policies, as dictated by
the EU under the Common Agricultural Policy.


I would
prefer not to rear bacon pigs, but if this is not the type you want not
rearing, I will just as gladly not rear porkers. Are there any
advantages in not rearing rare breeds such as Saddlebacks or Gloucester
Old Spots, or are there too many people already not rearing these?


As
I see it, the hardest part of this programme will be keeping an
accurate record of how many pigs I haven't reared. Are there any
Government or Local Authority courses on this? My friend is very
satisfied with this business. He has been rearing pigs for forty years
or so, and the best he ever made on them was £1,422 in 1968.  That is -
until this year, when he received a cheque for not rearing any. If I
get £3,000 for not rearing 50 pigs, will I get £6,000 for not rearing
100?


I plan to operate on a small scale at first, holding
myself down to about 4,000 pigs not raised, which will mean about
£240,000 for the first year. As I become more expert in not rearing
pigs, I plan to be more ambitious, perhaps increasing to, say, 40,000
pigs not reared in my second year, for which I should expect about £2.4
million from your department.


Incidentally, I wonder if I
would be eligible to receive tradable carbon credits for all these pigs
not producing harmful and polluting methane gases? Another point: These
pigs that I plan not to rear will not eat 2,000 tonnes of cereals. I
understand that you also pay farmers for not growing crops. Will I
qualify for payments for not growing cereals to not feed the pigs I
don't  rear?


I am also considering the "not milking cows"
business, so please send any information you have on that too. Please
could you also include the current DEFRA advice on set aside fields?
Can this be done on an e-commerce basis with virtual fields (of which I
seem to have several thousand hectares)?


In view of the
above, you will realise that I will be totally unemployed, and will
therefore qualify for unemployment benefits. I shall of course be
voting for your party at the next general election.


Yours faithfully,


Nigel Johnson-Hill.

For the Froggie speakers amongst you..................


A thief, in Paris , planned to steal some paintings from the Louvre.

After carefully planning, he got past security, stole the paintings and  made it safely to his van.

However, he was captured only two blocks away when his van ran out of petrol.

When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error,
 
He replied:

"Monsieur, that's the reason I stole the paintings.

I had no Monet

to buy Degas

to make the Van Gogh."

Council Tax Revaluation

Council tax re-valuers want to charge us more if we live in a nice area.

That ought to mean discounts for those of us who live in rough areas.

We have a huge council house in our street. The extended family is run
by a grumpy old woman with a pack of fierce dogs.

Her car isn't taxed or insured, and doesn't even have a number plate,
but the police still do not do anything.

Her bad tempered old man is famous for upsetting foreigners with racist
comments. A shopkeeper blames him for ordering the murder of his son's
future wife but nothing has been proved yet.

All their kids have broken marriages except the youngest, who everyone
thought was gay.

Two grandsons are meant to be in the Army but are always seen out in
 nightclubs. The family's odd antics are always in the papers.

They are out of control. ..........

George Phillips of Meridian , Mississippi was going up to bed when his
wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she
could see from the bedroom window.

George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that
there were people in the shed stealing things.

He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?" and he
said "no". Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should
simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available George
said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again.
"Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people in
my
shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I've just
shot
them all." Then he hung up.

Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response unit, and an
ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the burglars
red-handed.

One of the Policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot

them!"
George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"

Subject: Italian logic


An old Italian man lived alone in the country.

He wanted to dig his tomato garden but it was very hard work as
the
ground was too hard.

His only son Vincenzo, who used to help him, was in
prison.

The old man wrote a letter to his son and described
his
predicament.

Dear Vincenzo,

I am feeling pretty bad
because it looks like I won't be able to
plant my tomato garden this year. I
am getting too old to be
digging up a garden plot.

If you were here,
my troubles would be over. I know you would dig
the garden for me.


Love, Papa



A few days later he received a letter from
his son.


Dear Papa,

I'd do anything for you Papa, except dig
up that garden. That's
where I buried the bodies.

Love, Vinnie



At 4 a.m. The next morning, FBI and local police arrived and
dug
up the entire area without finding any bodies.

They apologized to
the old man and left.

The same day the old man received another letter
from his son.


Dear Papa,

Go ahead and plant the tomatoes
now. That's the best I could do
under the circumstances.

Love, Vinnie

A large company, feeling it was time for a shakeup, hired a
new CEO. This new boss was determined to rid the company of all
slackers.

On a tour of the facilities, the CEO noticed a guy leaning on a wall.
The room was full of workers and he wanted to let them know that
he meant business!

The new CEO walked up to the guy leaning against the wall
and asked, "How much money do you make a week?"
A little surprised, the young fellow looked at him and replied,
"I make $300 a week. Why?"

The CEO then handed the guy $1,200 in cash and screamed,
"Here's four weeks' pay, now GET OUT and don't come back!"

Feeling pretty good about himself, the CEO looked around
the room and asked, "Does anyone want to tell me what that
goof-off did here?"

From across the room came a voice, "Pizza delivery guy from Domino's!"

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four
youngmothers and their small children...
"You all have obsessions," he observed.

To the first mother, Mary, he said, "You are obsessed with eating.
You've even named your daughter Candy."

He turned to the second Mom, Ann: "Your obsession is with money.
Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."

He turns to the third Mom, Joyce: "Your obsession is alcohol. This
too manifests itself in your child's name, Brandy."

At this point, the fourth mother, Kathy, gets up, takes her little
boy by the hand and whispers. "Come on, Dick, we're leaving."

As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushes over to him, and asks for
his autograph. Instead, Spielberg gives him a slap and says, "You

The astonished Chinese man replied, "It was not the Chinese who bombed
your Pearl Harbor, it was the Japanese". "Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese,
you're all the same," replied Spielberg. In return, the Chinese gives Spielberg a slap and says, "You sank the
Titanic, my forefathers were on that ship. "


Shocked, Spielberg replies, "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not

The Chinese replies, "Iceberg, Spielberg, Carlsberg, you're all the

ACTUAL AUSTRALIAN COURT DOCKET 12659---CASE OF THE PREGNANT
LADY 
 
 A lady about 8 months pregnant got on a bus. She noticed
the man 
 opposite her was smiling at her. She immediately moved to
another 
 seat. 
 This time the smile turned into a grin, so she
moved again. The man 
 seemed more amused. When on the fourth move, the
man burst out 
 laughing, 
 she complained to the driver and he
had the man 
 arrested. 
 
 The case came up in court. The
judge asked the man (about 20 years 
 old) 
 what he had to say
for himself. The man replied, "Well your Honor, it 
 was like this: When
the lady got on the bus, I couldn't help but 
 notice 
 her
condition. She sat down under a sign that said, 'The Double Mint 
 Twins
are Coming' and I grinned." "Then she moved and sat under a sign 
 that
said, 'Logan's Liniment will reduce the swelling', and I had to 
 smile.
"Then she placed herself under a deodorant sign that said, 
 "William's
Big Stick Did the Trick", and I could hardly contain 
 myself." 
 "BUT, your Honor, when She moved the fourth time and sat under a sign 
 that said, 'Goodyear Rubber could have prevented this Accident'...I

Beware confusing cause & effect....


 
It was October and the Indians on a remote reservation asked their
new
 
Chief if the coming winter was going to be cold or mild. Since he
was
 
a Chief in a modern society he had never been taught the old
secrets.
 
When he looked at the sky he couldn't tell what the winter was
going to
 
be like. Nevertheless, to be on the safe side he told his tribe
that

the winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the

village should collect firewood to be prepared.
 
But being a practical leader, after several days he got an idea. He

went to the phone booth, called the National Weather Service and
asked,
 
"Is the coming winter going to be cold?" "It looks like this
winter is
 
going to be quite cold" the meteorologist at the weather service
 
responded. So the Chief went back to his people and told them to
 
collect even more firewood in order to be prepared.
 
A week later he called the National Weather Service again. "Does it
 
still look like it is going to be a very cold winter?" "Yes," the
man
 
at National Weather Service again replied, "it's going to be a very
 
cold winter." The Chief again went back to his people and ordered
them to




 
collect every scrap of firewood they could find.
> Two weeks later the Chief called the National Weather Service
again.

"Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?"

"Absolutely," the man replied. "It's looking more and more like it
is
 
going to be one of the coldest winters ever."
 
"How can you be so sure?" the Chief asked.
 
The weatherman replied, "Those  bloody  Indians are collecting
firewood like crazy."

After every flight, Quantas pilots fill out a form, called a
"gripe sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The
mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form, then the
pilots review the gripe sheets right before the next flight. Never let it be
said that ground crews lack a sense of humour.

Here are some of the
actual maintenance complaints submitted by the Qantas' pilots (as marked with a
P) and the solutions recorded (as marked with an S) by the maintenance
engineers.

By the way, it is relevant to note that Qantas is the only

priest's breath and then
sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car.

He says, "Sir, have
you been drinking?

Just water," says the priest.

The trooper says,
"Then why do I smell wine?"

The priest looks at the bottle and says,
"Good Lord! He's done it
again!"

Walking into the bar, Mike
said to Charlie the bartender, "Pour me a stiff one - just had another fight
with the little woman."

"Oh yeah?" said Charlie "And how did this one
end?"

"When it was over," Mike replied, "she came to me on her hands and
knees.

"Really," said Charles, "now that's a switch! What did she
say?"

She said, "Come out from under the bed, you little
chicken."

An Irishman walks into a bar in Dublin, orders three pints of Guinness
and sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in
turn. When he finished all three, he comes back to the bar and orders
three more.

The bartender says to him, "You know, a pint goes
flat after I draw it; it would taste better if you bought one at a
time." The Irishman replies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers. One
is in America, the other in Australia, and I'm here in Dublin. When we
all left home, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the
days we all drank together."

The bartender admits that this is
a nice custom, and leaves it there. The Irishman becomes a regular in
the bar and always drinks the same way: he orders three pints and
drinks the three pints by taking drinks from each of them in turn.

One
day, he comes in and orders two pints. All the other regulars in the
bar notice and fall silent. When he comes back to the bar for the
second round, the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief, but
I wanted to offer my condolences on your great loss."

The
Irishman looks confused for a moment, then a lights dawns in his eye
and he laughs. "Oh, no," he says, "Everyone is fine. It's me.....I've
quit drinking!"

A jockey and his horse are in the starting blocks at Flemmington pumped up on nervous energy, ready to run the big one, then, the starter sounds and they're off!

As the jockey takes a small lead he's hit in the shoulder with some fruit mince pies, then some chocolates, next came some crackers and then some antipasto mix, finally, just as he was nearing the finish line, a bottle of bubbly hits him in the head and he's pipped at the post.

After he comes to and realises what has happened he storms off to speak with the steward...

"Sir" he says, "Sir. I must protest! I have been severely HAMPERED!"

In the 16th and 17th centuries, everything had to be transported by ship and it was also before commercial fertilizer's invention, so large shipments of manure were common.
It was shipped dry, because in dry form it weighed a lot less than when wet, but once water (at sea) hit it, it not only became heavier, but the process of fermentation began again, of which a by product is methane gas. As the stuff was stored below decks in bundles you can see what could (and did) happen. Methane began to build up below decks and the first time someone came below at night with a lantern, BOOOOM!
Several ships were destroyed in this manner before it was determined just what was happening.
After that, the bundles of manure were always stamped with the term "Ship High In Transit" on them, which meant for the sailors to stow it high enough off the lower decks so that any water that came into the hold would not touch this volatile cargo and start the production of methane.
Thus evolved the term "S.H.I.T ", (Ship High In Transport) which has come down through the centuries and is in use to this very day.
You probably did not know the true history of this word. Neither did I.
I had always thought it was a GOLF term.

The older you are the funnier it gets...........
This is a story of two elderly people living in a mobile home park in
Florida. He was a widower and she was a widow. They had known one
another for a number of years.

One evening there was a community supper in the Club House, and the
widower and widow made a foursome with two other singles. They had a wonderful evening and spirits were high. The widower sent a few admiring glances across the table, and the widow smiled coyly back at him. Finally, he plucked up his courage to ask her, "Will you marry me?" After about six seconds of careful consideration, she answered, "Yes. Yes, I will. "

The meal ended with a few more pleasant exchanges and they went to their respective homes. The next morning, the widower was troubled. Did she say 'Yes', or did she say 'No'? He couldn't remember. Try as he would, he just could not recall. He went over the conversation of the previous evening, but his mind was blank. He remembered asking the question, but for the life of him he could not recall her response.

With fear and trepidation, he picked up the phone and called her. First,
he explained that he didn't remember as well as he used to. Then he
reviewed the lovely evening past. As he gained a little more courage he then inquired of her, "When I asked if you would marry me, did you say 'Yes' or did you say 'No'?"
"Why, you silly man, I said 'Yes. Yes I will.' And I meant it with all
my heart. "The widower was delighted. He felt his heart skip a beat.

Then she continued, "And I am so glad you called because I couldn't
remember who asked me."
