The Buddhist walks up to the hot dog vendor,
hands him $20, and says:
"Make me one with everything."
The hot dog vendor takes the money.
"Where's my change?", says the Buddhist.
Replies the vendor: "Change must come from within."

The DA should relax. Because of them, Cabinet Minister Babalaas-Msimang has had to issue a few statements recently.

"Although I was Absynthe from office for several months, I wish to remind you I Amstel the Minister of Health, am not a dictator but I Amarula and I will continue to Rum the department of health," she stated, announcing her return to office.

When quizzed on the health, she mentioned she had recovered well. "Of course I am well," she retorted, "I am more than well – I am OKWV! Ask a stupid question, get a stupid Hansa."

Despite being asked about her new liver, she made no reference to the Morgan transplant.

President Mbeki has rallied around his friend: "She has my Absolut support. This is why I wiped that silly Smirnoff her former deputy's face!

"The opposition will not be able Tequila career."

Let's face it – no matter how many times the DA has stirred she appears unshaken, and despite her career seemingly being on the rocks, the Minister is still a Mainstay of the ANC government.

The burro: A tale

Posted 2007 May 22 @ 15:01, via Fritz - filed under Tales.

A priest entered his donkey in a race and it won. He was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the next race, and it won again. The following morning's newspaper announced:

PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT

The bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the priest not to enter the donkey in another race. The next day, the local newspaper headline read:

BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS.

This was too much for the bishop, so he ordered the priest to get rid of the donkey. The priest decided to give it to a nun from the nearby convent. The local paper, hearing of the charitable gesture, posted the following headline the next day:

NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN

The bishop fainted. He informed the nun that she would have to get rid of the donkey. She sold it to one of the farmers for £10. The next day the paper read:

NUN SELLS ASS FOR £10

This was too much for the bishop, so he ordered the nun to buy back the donkey, take it out into the back woods and release it into the wild. The next day the headlines proclaim:

NUN ANNOUNCES: HER ASS IS FREE

The bishop was buried the next day.

And the moral of this tale? Being concerned about public opinion can bring you much grief and misery. Worry about your own ass, not someone else's; you'll be a lot happier and live longer.

Shortest straw unearthed

British archaeologists have announced the discovery, in a digsite in East Africa, of the shortest straw. More fascinating details can be found on the Null Hypothesis website, which is well worth bookmarking.

European Security Threat Level Raised

In response to ongoing terrorist threats, the English have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved". Security experts predict that threat levels may soon be raised to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross". Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940. Terrorists have been re-categorized from "Tiresome" to "A Bloody Nuisance". The last time "A Bloody Nuisance" warning level was issued was during the Great Fire of 1666.

Also, the French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide". The only two higher levels in France are "Surrender" and "Collaborate". The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing the country's military capability.

Italy has increased its alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing". Two more levels remain: "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides".

The Germans also increased their alert state from "Disdainful Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs". Two higher levels remain: "Invade a Neighbour" and "Lose".

Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual.

Self service

From the Guardian Unlimited:

Last year Bosnian robber Muradif Hasanbegovic (36) constructed a parcel and mailed himself out of Karlau jail in Austria. He has not been seen since.

At a U2 concert in Ireland Bono asks the audience for some quiet. Then in the silence, he starts to slowly clap his hands. Holding the audience in total silence, he says into the microphone: "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies." A voice from near the front of the audience pierces the silence: "Fookin stop doing it then!"

"This is considered to be a major breakthrough", said Apple CEO Steve Juggs on a Larry King Live interview, "because women are always complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them."

The Devil wins

Posted 2006 December 13 @ 10:01 - filed under Satin.

I just conducted a Google search for the exact phrase "Devil is in the details", which returns about 572 000 hits. However, "God is in the details" only about 117 000 times. "Buddha" (at 46) narrowly outranks "Allah" (42), while "Jesus" just manages to appear nine times in the nitty-gritty. The Devil wins!

How do you know when...

From an Anonymous Male Correspondent:

How do you know you've been observing too many nights without a wench?

When the director of the deep sky section gives you a list and you recognise the catalog numbers...

American gun control & gun deaths

If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theatre of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of 2,112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000 of members of the U.S. Armed Forces.

The firearm death rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000 for the same period.

That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in the U.S. Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq.

Conclusion: The U.S. should pull out of Washington immediately.

ankhIt is important for those of all faiths to recognize these four religious truths:

1. Muslims do not recognize Jews as God's chosen people.

2. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah.

3. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian World.

4. Anglicans do not recognize each other at Teazers.

Addicted

From a programming forum comes this post: "You Know You're Addicted to Coding When..". These are the ones that have or still do resonate with me:

* Triple espresso's start tasting bland

* You walk outside and wonder why the sun doesn't make a lens-flare in your eye....

* Every time you look at your clock, you see a power of 2 (6:40, 1:28, 2:56, 5:12, 10:24)

* You're pressing CTRL+S every 5 minutes, in every application..

* You end each line you type with ";", even plain english ones;

* The people you respect most you have never physically seen or spoken to, but you always bow to their knowledge.

* You look at your old code and cringe

* The first time you use another person's computer it takes you less than 30 seconds to completely disable all useless programs from running at boot and uninstalling all the ad-ware the fools had on the system.

* You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are addicted to coding.
