It's coming...

The Internal Revenue Service sent an auditor to a synagogue.
As the auditor reviews all the paperwork, he turns to the Rabbi and says, "I noticed that you buy a lot of candles."
"Yes, we do," responded the Rabbi.
"Well, Rabbi, what do you do with the candle drippings?" He asked.
"A good question," noted the rabbi. "We actually save them up and when we have enough, we send them back to the candle maker and every now and then, they send us a free box of candles."
"Oh," replied the auditor somewhat disappointed that his unusual question actually had a practical answer.
"Rabbi, what about all these matzo purchases? What do you do with all the crumbs from the matzo?"
"Ah, yes," replied the rabbi calmly. "We actually collect up all the crumbs from the matzo and when we have enough, we send them in a box back to the manufacturer; and every now and then they send us a box of matzo balls."
"Oh," replied the auditor, thinking hard how he could fluster the rabbi.
"Well, Rabbi," he continued, "what do you do with all the foreskins from the circumcisions?"
"Yes, here too, we do not waste." The rabbi answered. What we do is save up all the foreskins, and when we have enough we actually send them to the Internal Revenue Service."
"Internal Revenue?" questioned the auditor in disbelief.
"Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi, "Internal Revenue. And about once a year, they send us a Little Prick like you."

Managed to catch football hooligans recently. The show mainly focused on the gangs (or as they call it “firms”) around football grounds in the country… but the only time I abt saw a football was ard the beginning of the movie and it only like lasted 2 minutes? Yup… well… apparently… all of them like abt dress the same… a jacket… preferably paul smith or adidas… if not then at least an umbro… then its jeans… either dark or faded blue… and of course… white shoes… definitely from umbro… a football hooligan’s life then starts with beer… more beer… then off the match… fighting… done fighting… back to the pub… beer… and more beer… it was quite interesting to see Elijah Wood fighting coz he was the hobbit in Lord of the Rings… he dun look fierce though… unlike the other guy… Pete Dunham was his name in the movie… my goodness… got one scene where he juz came out of the shower… wah seh… out from nowhere… his body damn sculpted sia… but of course… he fighter mahz… anywayz… to be honest… I rather enjoyed the movie… juz like wat my colleague said… this was a dick flick… and I honestly do believe this movie isn’t fictitious at all… this sort of thing does happen in the England… actually not only England… Italy… Spain… the rest of Europe for tat matter… dun tell me u haven’t seen the reports… during the world cup or euro championships… English hooligans are always in the news… to think abt it… it’s quite scary…

Kids are getting smarter these days...

A Primary School teacher was having trouble with one of her students.The teacher asked, "Harry, what is your problem?" Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the Primary 1. My sister is in Primary 3 and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in Primary 3 too!"

The teacher took Harry to the principal's office. While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to he principal what the situation was. The principal told the teacher he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the Primary 1, and behave. The teacher agreed. Harry was brought in. The conditions were explained, and Harry agreed to take the test.

Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Harry: "9"
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Harry: "36"

And so it went with every question the principal thought a Primary 1 student should know. The principal looks at the teacher and tells her, "I think Harry can go to Primary 3." The teacher says to the principal, "May I ask him some tougher questions?" The principal and Harry both agree.

Teacher: "What does a cow have four of that I have only two ?"
Harry: "Legs."

Teacher: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?" (The principal wondered, why does she ask such a question!)
Harry: "Pockets."

Teacher: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Harry: "Pants."

Teacher: "What's starts with a C and ends with a T, and it is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?" (The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer....)
Harry: "Coconut."

Teacher: "What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?"
Harry: "Bubblegum."

Teacher: "What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting down and dog do on three legs?" (The principal's eyes open really wide and before he could stop the answer...)
Harry: "Shake hands."

Teacher: "Now I will ask some 'Who am I' sort of questions, okay?"

Teacher: "You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to get me up. I get wet before you do." Who am I??
Harry: "A Tent."

Teacher: "A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when you're bored. The best man always has me first." What am I?? (Principal was looking restless and a bit tense)
Harry: "A Wedding Ring."

Teacher: "I come in many sizes. When I'm not well, I drip. When you blow me, I feel good." What am I??
Harry: "A Nose."

Teacher: "I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a quiver." What am I??
Harry: "An Arrow."

Teacher: "What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of excitement?"
Harry: "Firetruck."

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher,
"Put this ass in Primary 6 ! I got the last 10 questions all wrong myself."

One sad man...

Last week was my 50th birthday and I didn't feel very well when I woke up
that morning. i sat there at breakfast hoping my wife would be pleasant and
say, "happy birthday!", and possibly have a present for me. As it turned
out, she barely said good morning, let alone "Happy Birthday."

I thought... well, that's marriage for you, but the kids will remember. My
kids came into breakfast and didn't say a word so when I left for the
office, I was feeling pretty low and somewhat despondent.

As I walked into my office, my secretary jane said, "Good morning, boss,
happy birthday!"

It felt good that at least someone had remembered.

I worked until one o'clock and then Jane knocked on my door and said, "You
know, it's such a beautiful day outside, and it's your birthday,
let's go out to lunch, just you and me."

I said, "Thanks Jane, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day.

Let's go!"

We went to lunch. But we didn't go where we normally would go.

We dined instead at a little place with a private table. We had two
martinis each and I enjoyed the meal tremendously.

On the way back to the office, Jane said, "You know, it's such a beautiful
day... we don't need to go back to the office, do we?"

I responded, "I guess not. what do you have in mind?"

She said, "Let's go to my apartment."

After arriving at her apartment Jane turned to me and said, "Boss, if you
don't mind, I'm going to step into the bedroom for a moment. I'll be right
back."

"OK," I replied, somewhat nervously.

She went into the bedroom and, after a couple of minutes, she came out
carrying a huge birthday cake... followed by my wife, kids, and dozens of
my friends and co-workers, all singing "Happy Birthday".


and I just sat there...


on the couch...

Limp

So find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files
You must follow, leave this academic factory
You will find me in the matinee
The dark of the matinee
It's better in the matinee
The dark of the matinee is mine
Yes it's mine
