with some interesting results..
.A new soldier is preparing for his first battle,
eager and ready to go.
He has his uniform, his hat, everything he needs,
except his weapons
.He goes up to the General, and tells him of his problem.
The General looks around for a moment, before saying,
"Yes, we are running short on supplies here,
and the next shipment won't be in for a couple of days.
Tell you what, all you need to do is believe you have a weapon, and it will work."
The young soldier looks at him incredulously.
"I know it sounds weird, but trust me
, if you believe you have a gun, hold your hands out like a gun,
and shout bamity-bam-bam, it will be like a real gun.
The soldier, a little weary, decides to try it.
Later, when he is marching into battle, he holds up his hands,
pretending to hold rifle, and says bamity-bam-bam.
He watches amazed as he shoots someone down
.He returns to the position,
shouting bamity-bam-bam, bamity-bam-bam into the enemy,
and starts taking out the enemy quickly.
As the battle goes on, the soldier spots a guy on the other side
who is standing off to one side, unguarded.
Quickly taking this to his advantage,
the soldier point to him and goes bamity-bam-bam.
Nothing happens.
He tries again, this time, the guy has noticed him shooting,
and starts to come towards the young soldier.
The soldier frantically shouts bamity-bam-bam, again and again,
as he comes closer, with nothing happening.
Finally, a few feet before the man gets to him,
our soldier is pushed down.
He wonders how this suddenly he hears
"tankity-tank-tank, tankity-tank-tank.

Stagecoach surprise
I had a dream the other night.
I was in the old West riding in a stagecoach.
Suddenly, a man riding a horse pulls up to the left side of the stagecoach,
and a riderless horse pulls up on the right.
The man leans down, pulls open the door,
and jumps off his horse into the stagecoach.
Then he opens the door on the other side
and jumps onto the other horse.
Just before he rode off, I yelled out
,"What was all that about?"
He replied
,"Nothing. It's just a stage I'm going through."

* Time is never wasted when you're wasted all the time.
* Reality is an illusion that is brought upon by the lack of alcohol
.* A woman drove me to drink. I sure regret I didn't get a chance to thank her.
* What contemptible scoundrel has stolen the cork to my lunch?
* One Tequila, Two Tequila, Three Tequila, Floor
.* Beauty is in the Eyes of the Beer Holder
.* If God had intended us to drink beer, He would have given us stomachs
.* When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.
* Life is a waste of time, time is a waste of life, so if you get wasted all of the time,
you'll have the time of your life
.* 24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence?
* Beer is good food.
* It's better to have a beer in the hand than gas in the tank.
* Beer. It's not just for breakfast anymore
.* A beer in the hand beats two in the bush
.* One more drink and I'll be under the host
.* Without question, the greatest invention in the history of Mankind is beer.
The wheel was also a fine invention, but it does not go nearly as well with pizza
.* I don't work out. It cuts into my drinking time
.* People who drink light beer don't like the taste of beer, they just like to pee a lot
.* I don't have a drinking problem. I drink, I get drunk, I fall down. No problem!
* Draft beer, not people!

and wanted to see the Capitol building.
Unfortunately, she couldn't find it,
so she asked a police officer for directions.
"Excuse me, Officer,” she said:
"Excuse me, Officer,” she said:
“how do I get to the Capitol building?"
The officer replied:
The officer replied:
"Wait here at this bus stop for the No. 54 bus.
It'll take you right there."
She thanked the officer and he drove off.
She thanked the officer and he drove off.
Three hours later, the police officer returned to the same area
and, sure enough, the blonde was still waiting at the same bus stop.
The officer got out of his car and said:

Why are you still waiting?"

Its that Colour Pink again
Its that Colour Pink again
Standing in line at the grocery-store checkout,
my dad was pleased to hear bits of classical music.
Unfortunately, the music would begin to play, only to quickly stop.
The store's sound system did not seem to be working properly
.Turning to the woman standing behind him in line.
Dad commented on how lovely the music was
and how he hoped the store would get their system fixed.
As the music started up again.
Dad smiled at the lady and said,
"There it is again! Isn't it lovely?"
"Sir, it is indeed lovely, but it's not from the store," the woman replied with a smile.
"Your cell phone is ringing."

A mother and her young son were flying Southwest Airlines
from Kansas City to Chicago
. The little boy (who had been looking out the window turned
to his mother and asked,
"If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats,
why don't big planes have baby planes?"
The mother (who couldn't think of an answer)
told her son to ask the flight attendant
.So the boy went down the aisle and asked the flight attendant,
"If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats,
why don't big plane have baby planes?"
The busy flight attendant smiled and said,
"Did your mother tell you to ask me?"
The boy said, "Yes, she did."
"Well, then, you go and tell your mother that there are no baby planes
because Southwest always pulls out on time.
Have your mother explain that to you."

PHILS PHILOSOPHY
The Class Reunion
Every five years, as summertime nears,
An announcement arrives in the mail,
A reunion is planned; it'll be really grand;
Make plans to attend without fail.
I'll never forget the first time we met;
We tried so hard to impress.
We drove fancy cars, smoked big cigars,
And wore our most elegant dress.
It was quite an affair; the whole class was there.
It was held at a fancy hotel.
We wined, and we dined, and we acted refined,
And everyone thought it was swell.
The men all conversed about who had been first to achieve great fortune and fame.
Meanwhile, their spouses described their fine houses
And how beautiful their children became
.The homecoming queen, who once had been lean,
Now weighed in at one-ninety-six.
The jocks who were there had all lost their hair
, And the cheerleaders could no longer do kicks.
No one had heard about the class nerd Who'd guided a spacecraft to the moon;
Or poor little Jane, who's always been plain; She married a shipping tycoon
.The boy we'd decreed `most apt to succeed'
Was serving ten years in the pen,
While the one voted `least' now was a priest;
Just shows you can be wrong now and then.
They awarded a prize to one of the guys Who seemed to have aged the least..
Another was given to the grad who had driven The farthest to attend the feast.
They took a class picture, a curious mixture of beehives, crew cuts and wide ties.
Tall, short, or skinny, the style was the mini;
You never saw so many thighs
At our next get-together, no one cared whether
They impressed their classmates or not.
The mood was informal, a whole lot more normal;
By this time we'd all gone to pot
.It was held out-of-doors, at the lake shores;
We ate hamburgers, coleslaw, and beans.
Then most of us lay around in the shade,
In our comfortable T-shirts and jeans.
By the fiftieth year, it was abundantly clear,
We were definitely over the hill.
Those who weren't dead had to crawl out of bed,
And be home in time for their pill
.And now I can't wait; they've set the date;
Our sixtieth is coming, I'm told.
It should be a ball, they've rented a hall
At the Shady Rest Home for the old.
Repairs have been made on my hearing aid;
My pacemaker's been turned up on high.
My wheelchair is oiled, and my teeth have been boiled;
And I've bought a new wig and glass eye
.I'm feeling quite hearty, and I'm ready to party
I'm gonna dance `til dawn's early light.
It'll be lots of fun; But I just hope that there's one
Other person who can make it that night.
thanks Toni
