1. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused his dentist's
Novocain during root canal work? He wanted to transcend dental
medication.
2. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were
standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories.
After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and
asked them to disperse. "But why?," they asked,
as they moved off. "Because," he said, "I can't
stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer."
3. A doctor made it his regular habit to stop off at a bar
for a hazelnut daiquiri on his way home. The bartender knew
of his habit, and would always have the drink waiting at precisely
5:03 p.m. One afternoon, as the end of the workday approached,
the bartender was dismayed to find that he was out of hazelnut
extract. Thinking quickly, he threw together a daiquiri made
with hickory nuts and set it on the bar. The doctor came in
at his regular time, took one sip of the drink and exclaimed,
"This isn't a hazelnut daiquiri!" "No, I'm
sorry," replied the bartender, "it's a hickory daiquiri,
doc."
4. A hungry lion was roaming through the jungle looking for
something to eat. He came across two men. One was sitting
under a tree and reading a book; the other was typing away
on his typewriter. The lion quickly pounced on the man reading
the book and devoured him. Even the king of the jungle knows
that readers digest and writers cramp.
5. There was a man who entered a local paper's pun contest.
He sent in ten different puns, in the hope that at least one
of the puns would win. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
6. A guy goes to a psychiatrist. "Doc, I keep having
these alternating recurring dreams. First I'm a tepee; then
I'm a wigwam; then I'm a tepee; then I'm a wigwam. It's driving
me crazy. What's wrong with me?" The doctor replies:
"It's very simple. You're two tents."
7. A woman has twins, and gives them up for adoption. One
of them goes to a family in Egypt and is named "Amal."
The other goes to a family in Spain; they name him "Juan."
Years later, Juan sent a picture of himself to his mom. Upon
receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wishes
she also had a picture of Amal. Her husband responds, "But
they are twins-if you've seen Juan, you've seen Amal."
Experience is something
you don't get until just after you need it.
