Two drunks were walking home along the railway tracks.
The first drunk says, "There's a hell of a lot of steps here."
The second drunk says, "I'll tell you what's worse, this handrail is far too low down."

An obnoxious drunk stumbles through the front door of a bar and orders a whisky. The bartender says, "Sorry, chum, but you're too drunk."
A few minutes later, the drunk comes in through the back door. Again he slurs, "Gimme a drink," and the bartender says, "No man, I told you last time - you're too drunk."
Five minutes later the guy comes in through the bathroom window and orders a drink. Again the bartender says, "You're too drunk."
The drunk scratches his head and says "Blimey, I suppose I must be. The last two places said the same thing."

A man walks into a bar with his Golden Retriever. "Hey, can I get a drink on the house if my dog talks to you?" The barman laughs, "Dogs can't talk, pal. But if you can prove to me yours does, I'll give you a drink. If not, you're barred." "OK," says the guy. He turns to his dog, "OK, fella. Tell me, what's on top of your doghouse?" "Roof!" The man turns and smiles at the barman. "THAT ain't talking! Any dog can bark!" "OK, boy. Tell me, how does sandpaper feel?" "Ruff!" "What the hell are you tryin' to pull, mister?" "OK, OK," says the man. "One more question, please. OK, buddy, tell me, who is the greatest ball player who ever lived?" "Ruth*!" The barman beats the hell out of the guy and throws him onto pavement outside of the bar, then throws the dog out next to him. The dog gets up and looks at his owner. "Geez. D'ya think I shoulda said DiMaggio**?"

John Wayne enters a bar. Everybody stops drinking and an uneasy silence fills the room. They are all aware that the fastest hand in the West has entered the room and they all get out of his way. John sits at the bar and orders a whisky. The cowboy next to him tries to play it cool and not attract attention. John looks at him and says: "Two plus two?" The guy is so scared that he can barely talk. He manages to say: "What?" John fixes his glare on him and repeats: "Two plus two. Answer me NOW!" The guy is now completely terrified, but realizes he had better answer. He starts thinking really hard and does his best to add the two numbers. He comes up with the answer: "Five?" A few seconds later he is dead from a shot in the head. John puts his gun back and orders another whisky. The barman, shocked, manages to ask: "Excuse me, Mr Wayne, but why did you shoot him?" John drinks his whisky, looks at the barman and says: "The man knew too much."

A Texan walks into a bar in Ireland and clears his voice to the crowd of drinkers. He says: "I hear you Irish are a bunch of hard drinkers. I'll give 500 American dollars to anybody in here who can drink 10 pints of Guinness back-to-back*." The room is quiet and no one takes up the Texan's offer. One man even leaves. Thirty minutes later the same gentleman who left shows back up and taps the Texan on the shoulder. "Is your bet still good?" asks the Irishman. The Texan says yes and asks the bartender to line up ten pints of Guinness. Immediately the Irishman tears into all ten of the pint glasses, drinking them all back-to-back*. The other pub patrons cheer as the Texan sits in amazement. The Texan gives the Irishman the $500 and says, "If ya don't mind me askin', where did you go for that 30 minutes you were gone?" The Irishman replies: "Oh, ... I had to go to the pub down the street to see if I could do it first."
* back-to-back: consecutively, one after another, in a row

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher who's hand was caught in the gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Palin and her bid.
The old rancher said, "Well, ya know, Palin is a 'Post Turtle'"*.Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a 'post turtle' was.
The old rancher said, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top - that's a 'post turtle".
The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so he continued to explain. "You know she didn't get up there by herself, she doesn't belong up there, and she doesn't know what to do while she's up there, and you just wonder what kind of dummy put her up there to begin with".

A one-dollar bill meets a twenty-dollar bill. "Hey, where have you been?" asks the one-dollar bill. "I haven't seen you round in a while." The twenty-dollar bill replies, "I've been here and there, you know, hanging out at the casino and places like that. I went on a cruise in January, went round the Caribbean a few times, then back home, went to a couple of football games, did some shopping, the movies,  that kind of stuff, never a dull moment. So how about you?" The one-dollar bill sighs and replies, "Just the same old stuff: church, church, church!"

A businessman was in a great deal of trouble. His business was failing, he had put everything he had into the business, he owed everybody-- it was so bad he was even contemplating suicide. As a last resort he went to a priest and poured out his story of tears and woe.

When he had finished, the priest said, "Here's what I want you to do: Put a beach chair and your Bible in your car and drive down to the beach. Take the beach chair and the Bible to the water's edge, sit down in the beach chair, and put the Bible in your lap. Open the Bible; the wind will rifle the pages, but finally the open Bible will come to rest on a page. Look down at the page and read the first thing you see. That will be your answer, that will tell you what to do."

A year later the businessman went back to the priest and brought his wife and children with him. The man was in a new custom-tailored suit, his wife in a mink coat, the children shining. The businessman pulled an envelope stuffed with money out of his pocket, gave it to the priest as a donation in thanks for his advice.

The priest recognized the benefactor, and was curious. "You did as I suggested?" he asked.

"Absolutely," replied the businessman.

"You went to the beach?"

"Absolutely."

"You sat in a beach chair with the Bible in your lap?"

"Absolutely."

"You let the pages rifle until they stopped?"

"Absolutely."

"And what were the first words you saw?"

"Chapter 11*."

Murphy applied for a position at an Irish firm. An American applied for the same job and as both applicants had the same qualifications the manager asked them to take a test. Upon completing the test both men had missed one question. The manager said to Murphy, "Thanks for your interest, but we've given the job to the American." Murphy said, "Why would you do that? We both got nine questions correct. This is Ireland and I'm Irish. I should get the job!" The manager replied, "Well, we based our decision on the question you missed." "And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?" Murphy wanted to know.  "Well", replied the manager, "that's simple. The American's answer to question five was, 'I don't know.' Yours was 'Neither do I'."

In danger of drowning they decide that one of them should swim through the dangerous waters to the shore for help. The lawyer volunteers. The priest says, "You'll get killed, there are hundreds of hungry sharks between here and the land. We'll just have to pray, God will save us."

"No, that's professional courtesy," says the psychiatrist.

A magician on a cruise ship was performing the highlight of the show when a parrot flew onstage and squawked, "It's in his sleeve!"
The magician chased the bird away.
The next day the magician was performing his highlight again, when the parrot flew onstage and declared, "It's in his pocket!"

They stared at each other for three full days, neither of them saying anything, until finally the parrot said, "I give up, what did you do with the ship?"

The owner replied, "Well, that parrot knows how to use a computer." Then the man asked about the next parrot. The owner said, "This parrot costs $ 1000. It can do everything the other parrot can, plus it knows how to program in several different languages." The increasingly startled man asked about the third parrot. The owner said that it cost $ 2000 and, of course, the man had to ask, "Well, what can it do?" The owner replied, "To be honest, I've never seen it do anything, but the other two call him boss."

After driving for about eight hours, a trucker decides to pull over and sleep a little while. As soon as he falls asleep, he is awoken by someone knocking on the door of his cab. Can you tell me the time, please?" asks a jogger. "Yeah, it's 5:30," answers the trucker. He falls asleep again only to be woken by another jogger who, too, wants to know the time. "It's 5:40!" yells the trucker. Really needing to catch some sleep before he can continue driving, he writes on a piece of paper: I DON'T KNOW THE TIME. He sticks the paper behind his windscreen. But hardly has he fallen asleep again when he is awoken again by yet another jogger who tells him, "Glad to oblige, it's 5:45."

A priest woke up one Sunday morning and looking outside he saw that it was a beautiful day. He decided to skip church and go play a round of golf instead. He drove about 40 miles out of town to avoid being spotted by his parishioners. As he was setting up his first drive on the first hole, Jesus leaned over to God and asked him, "Are you going to let him get away with this?" God told him not to worry, he would handle it. Just as God said that, the priest hit the drive of his life. The ball travelled 500 feet to the green, bounced once and rolled into the hole. The priest stabbed the air with his right fist in ecstatic joy, shouting, "Wow, what a shot!" Jesus asked God, "Why would you let him do that?" To which God only replied, "Because, who is he going to tell?"

"Can you pay in cash?", persisted the nun. "I'm afraid I cannot, Sister." "Do you have any close relatives?" the nun asked. "Just my sister. But she's a humble spinster nun just like yourself." "Oh, I must correct you, Mr Hoskins. Nuns are not 'spinsters'. They are married to God." "Wonderful," said Mr Hoskins. "In that case, just send the bill to my brother-in-law."
