lady on his arm. A couple of days later, when the old man had a second
appointment to get the results of the check-up, the doctor said, "You're
really doing great, aren't you? You seem chirpy enough!" The man replied,
"I'm just doing what you told me I should do: 'Get a hot mama and be
cheerful,' and it works wonders. Horrified, the doctor said: "I didn't
say that! I said 'You've got a heart murmur. Be careful.'"

Joke
of the week [266 = year 6, #6]: The Walker, Billy Connolly (God 3)
(August 20, 2007 - August 26, 2007)
There was a guy, a Glasgow guy, and he was out for a walk and he was
doing "out-for-walk things". I'm not a great "go-for-walk"
person, but he was doing whatever people going for walks do ... Go for a walk,
walking. Oh, a tree, I'm glad I came. Oh, there's a bird, what a walk this is
turning out to be! And he was walking along some cliffs ... He went along
those cliffs and the sea was pounding on the rocks beneath "POUND"!
Oh, sea pounding on rock, it's great. What a walk! Right! So, look at that,
pounding. My legs are walking, they never think. And he fell off!
To get straight to the point: over the top. And he was hurtling towards the
sea, grabbing handfuls of fresh air as he went. "Help, I have fallen in
mid-walk!" And he was passing ... there was a bush sticking out, a bush
was sticking out of the cliff as he was passing it. (He) grabbed on (and) he's
hanging there. "HELP! HELP! ANYBODY UP THERE? ANYBODY UP THERE? - [God
in a soothing voice] "Yes, my son. I am up here, I am everywhere
... [Glasgow guy ] "Look, hey. I was out for a walk there and I
slipped on something and I fell down here and I am hanging onto this bush.
Bush here, I'm hanging on." - [God] "I know. I know all
things, I see all things, I am the father of all things." - [Glasgow
guy] "... very good. Look, I don't think you understand. I'm hanging
onto this bush and my hand is getting sore, I can't hold much longer!" -
[God] "I know. And your hand will get even sorer until you can
stand the pain no longer, you'll let go and plummet to your death on the rocks
below. But fear not, for you shall join me in heaven." - [Glasgow guy]
"IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE UP THERE?"

Joke
of the week [267 = year 6, #7]: The Parachutist, Billy Connolly (God 4)
(August 27, 2007 - September 2, 2007)
A Glasgow guy was learning no parachute and he was in the aeroplane and
he went up to the instructor and said: "Look, ... I don't want to look
stupid or anything, you know what I mean, but you've got to tell me again what
you do, I've totally forgotten, I'm panicking." He said: "Look,
there is nothing to it. Basically, you jump out of the door, a static line
will open your parachute and you'll float gently to the ground." - "Aye,
that's great, but look supposing it doesn't open?" He said: "In the
unlikely event of your parachute failing to open" - they always say
that (on) aeroplanes, don't they? 'In the unlikely event of this aeroplane
crashing into a mountain and bursting into flames, there is a life-jacket
under your seat. ... Put it on, come back to life, no problem!' - So he
said: "In the unlikely event of your parachute failing to open, you have
a reserve parachute in the front (?) with a red little handle. Give it a smart
tug, it will develop, you'll float gently to the ground." He said: "That's
great, sure, but what if it doesn't? Just suppose it doesn't." He said:
"In the EXTREMELY unlikely event of the reserve parachute failing to
develop, pray - preferably to Allah." "Yes," he said, "(but)
I'm a Christian." He said: "It doesn't matter, pray to Allah."
Okay. So he jumped out - nothing! And he is hurtling through the air and he is
trying to get it to open - nothing! So he's (trying to deploy) the reserve (parachute)
- the whole thing comes off. He is looking for his hanky. He is scudding
through the sky. He says: "What's the bloody thing I have to do? Oh, yeah!
ALLAH, ALLAH, HELP ME!" And a big black hand came out of the sky, picked
him (up) gently and placed him softly on the ground. He said: "Well,
thank Christ for that! And a big black foot went ... [sound of smashing]!!!

Joke
of the week [268 = year 6, #8]: cat's heaven (God 5)
(September 3, 2007 - September 9, 2007)
A
cat dies and goes to heaven. God says to him: "You've been a good cat all
these years. Anything you desire is yours, all you have to do is ask."
The cat says: "Well, I lived all my life with a poor family and had to
sleep on hardwood floors." God says: "Say no more." And
instantly a fluffy pillow appears.
A few days later, six mice are killed in a tragic accident and they go to
heaven. God meets them at the gate with the same offer He made the cat and the
mice say in unison: "All our lives we've had to run. We've been chased by
cats, dogs and even women with brooms. If we could only have a pair of roller
skates, we wouldn't have to run anymore." God says: "Say no more."
And instantly each mouse is fitted with a beautiful pair of tiny roller skates.
About a week later, God checks to see how the cat is doing. "How are you
doing? Are you happy here?" He asks. The cat yawns and stretches and says,
"Oh, I've never been happier in my life. And those meals on wheels You've
been sending over are simply delicious."

Joke
of the week [300 = year 6, #40]: mistranslation
(April 14, 2008 - April 20, 2008)
A
woman was terribly overweight, so her doctor put her on a diet. "I want
you to eat normally for two days, then skip a day, and repeat this procedure
for three weeks. The next time I see you, you'll have lost at least five kilos."
When the woman returned three weeks later, the doctor was surprised to see
that she had lost over 10 kilos. "Why, that's amazing!" the doctor
said. "Did you follow my instructions?" The woman nodded. "I
tell you what though, I thought I was going to drop dead that third day."
"From hunger, you mean?" "No, from skipping."
Joke
of the week [301 = year 6, #41]: detective joke (2): jealous husband
(April 21, 2008 - April 27, 2008)
A jealous husband hires a private detective to check up
on his wife. The husband tells the detective, he wants both a written account
and as many videos of her in any kind of compromising situations as the man
can get. Two weeks later, the detective calls the man and tells him he has all
the evidence he needs. They make an appointment for a meeting. The two of them
are sitting there watching the videos. The man sees his wife meeting another
man, then the two of them are walking in the park laughing. Another series
shows her with a different man laughing and dancing. All together, he watches
a dozen or so different activities, each with a different man, each time both
she and the man are sharing obvious utter glee. "Amazing," said the
shocked husband, "simply amazing ! I just can't believe it." "What
can't you believe ?" asked the detective, "It's all right there for
you to see, plus I have all the times and dates in my log." "I know,
I know!" said the man, still in shock, "I just can't believe my wife
could be that much fun."

(May 12, 2008 - May 18, 2008)
A
depressed-looking man is sitting in a cheap, greasy diner in a Leeds suburb.
He picks up the menu and sees that it contains just three dishes: meatloaf,
shepherd's pie and Yorkshire pudding. The waitress comes over to take his
order. "I'll have the Yorkshire pudding," says the man glumly,
"and if you could throw in a few kind words that would be mighty welcome."
The waitress leaves and returns a few minutes later with a plate of Yorkshire
pudding. She bangs the plate on the table in front of the man and starts to
walk off. "Hey," says the man. "I got my dinner; how about
those kind words?" The waitress turns, takes the cigarette out her mouth
and says, "Don't eat the pudding."

Two
Jewish men go to a Chinese restaurant. While they are talking, one of them
wonders how many Jewish people there are in China. They both agree that there
must be some, but neither is sure how many. When the waiter comes over, they
ask him if there are any Chinese Jews. "I don't know," replies the
waiter. "I ask in the kitchen. They will know." So the waiter goes
to the kitchen, then comes back. "Sorry. No Chinese Jews," he says.
"What?" says one of the men. "No Chinese Jews at all?"
"Sorry," repeats the waiter. "We got orange Jews, apple Jews,
but no Chinese Jews."

Tony
goes into his favourite restaurant and orders his favourite dish: a bowl of
tomato soup. The soup arrives and Tony looks at it for a moment before
signalling the waiter to come back. "Taste the soup," says Tony.
"Why?" asks the waiter. "Just taste the soup!" says Tony.
"Sir, you've been coming in here almost every day for many years,"
says the waiter. "You've always enjoyed our soup." Tony says, "
I know. Taste the soup!" The waiter protests, "But what's wrong? Is
it too hot? Not hot enough? Tony says, "Taste the soup!" "But I
don't understand, sir," splutters the waiter. "Did we leave out the
salt? Perhaps you don't have enough bread? Is it the bread? Do you want more
bread? "Tony glares at the waiter, "Just - taste - the bloody -
soup!" he shouts. The waiter gives in, "All right, sir, all
right, I'll taste the soup!" He looks around, "Where's the spoon?"
"Aha!" says Tony.

Joke
of the week [308 = year 6, #48]: the English gentleman
(June 9, 2008 - June 15, 2008)
From
the Xenophobe's Guide to the English, Oval Books (2008):
Since the English
rarely say what they mean and tend towards reticence and understatement, their
humour is partly based on an exaggeration of this facet of their own character.
So, while in conversation they avoid truths which might lead to confrontation;
in their humour, they mock that avoidance. For instance:
At dinner in a great country house, one of the guests drinks rather too much
wine and, without warning, slumps across the table. The host rings for the
butler and when he arrives says. "Smithers, could you please prepare a
room. This gentleman has kindly consented to stay the night."
Joke
of the week [309 = year 6, #49]: Irish joke (13)
(June 16, 2008 - June 22, 2008)
An
Irishman and an Apache are walking through the Navajo desert when they hear a
"Woo! Woo!" sound coming from a nearby cave. The Apache tears off
his clothes and runs towards the cave, shouting "Woo! Woo!" in
return. "Why are you making this sound?" calls out the Irishman.
"And why are you stripped stark naked?" The Apache shouts back over
his shoulder, "It's a mating call and there's a woman in the cave who's
more than ready for you know what. Woo! Woo!" With that, the Apache runs
over to the cave and disappears inside. Suddenly the Irishman hears another
"Woo! Woo!" coming from over the hill. He runs to the top of the
hill and sees a large cave in the next valley. The "Woo! Woo!" noise
comes from the cave once more. "Hang on, me darlin'!" shouts the
Irishman. "I'm coming!" The Irishman runs down the slope tearing off
his clothes. "Woo! Woo!" he shouts, and runs into the cave. Next
day, the headline in THE DENVER POST reads, "NAKED IRISHMAN RUN
OVER BY FREIGHT TRAIN."

Joke
of the week [311 = year 6, #51]: Irish joke (15)
(June 30, 2008 - July 6, 2008)
There
once was a 98-year-old Irish nun, who lived out her days in her convent in
County Tipperary. She was very frail and her health was beginning to fail. So
her doctor prescribed her a shot of whisky three times a day to "fortify"
her, as he put it. However, the nun would hear none of it, saying that she
hadn't had even the tiniest drop of alcohol throughout her whole life and
certainly wouldn't give in to the devil's worldly temptations now, at the end
of her days. But the mother superior found a way out of the dilemma. She knew
that the elderly sister loved milk. So she instructed the kitchen to spike the
milk three times a day. Eventually, the pious nun approached her final hour.
As several sisters gathered around her at her bedside, the mother superior
asked if she wanted to leave them any words of wisdom. "Oh, yes."
she replied. "Never sell that cow!"
