One day three old ladies were sitting on a park bench and this guy jumped out of the bushes and flashed them.

Joke...in the heat...memberhoernchenmeister19 Nov '12 - 0:59 
A little girl asked her Mom, "Mom, may I take the dog for a walk around the block?"
 
Mom replies, "No, because she is in heat."
 
"What's that mean?" asked the child.
 
"Go ask your father", answered the mother, "I think he's in the garage."

The little girl goes to the garage and says, "Dad, may I take Belle for a walk around the block? I asked Mom, but she said the dog was in heat, and to come
to you."
 
Dad said, "Bring Belle over here." He took a rag, soaked it with gasoline, and scrubbed the dog's backside with it and said, "Okay, you can go now, but keep Belle on the leash and only go one time around the block."

The little girl left, and returned a few minutes later with no dog on the leash. Surprised, Dad asked, "Where's Belle?"

The little girl said, "She ran out of gas about halfway down the block, so another dog is pushing her home."
JokeMake your bets...memberJoan Murt19 Nov '12 - 0:24 
Two guys where walking down the street when they saw two dogs humping.
 
One said, "I wonder how much liquor it would take to get my wife to do it that way".
 
So they made a bet of 10 bucks on whose wife would do it on the lease amount of liqour.
 
After a week they met in a bar.
 
"Well", said the first guy "How much liquor did it take".
 
"A pint of whiskey", replied the other guy.
 
The first guy said "You win, It took me a whole bottle just to get her out in the yard."

JokeSome things you just can't explainmemberVivic17 Nov '12 - 22:17 
A farmer was sitting in the neighborhood bar getting drunk. A man came in and asked the farmer, "Hey, why are you sitting here on this beautiful day, getting drunk?"
 
The farmer shook his head and replied, "Some things you just can't explain."
 
"So what happened that's so horrible?" the man asked as he sat down next to the farmer.
 
"Well," the farmer said, "Today I was sitting by my cow, milking her. Just as I got the bucket full, she lifted her left leg and kicked over the bucket."
 
"Okay," said the man, "but that's not so bad."
 
"Some things you just can't explain," the farmer replied.
 
"So what happened then?" the man asked. The farmer said, "I took her left leg and tied it to the post on the left."
 
"And then?" the man asked.
 
"Well, I sat back down and continued to milk her. Just as I got the bucket full, she took her right leg and kicked over the bucket."
 
The man laughed and said, "Again?"
 
The farmer replied, "Some things you just can't explain."
 
"So, what did you do then?" the man asked.
 
"I took her right leg this time and tied it to the post on the right."
 
"And then?"
 
"Well, I sat back down and began milking her again. Just as I got the bucket full, the stupid cow knocked over the bucket with her tail."
 
"Hmmm," the man said and nodded his head.
 
"Some things you just can't explain," the farmer said.
 
"So, what did you do?" the man asked.
 
"Well," the farmer said, "I didn't have anymore rope, so I took off my belt and tied her tail to the rafter. In that moment, my pants fell down and my wife walked in.. Some things you just can't explain..!!"

Jokegrandmothers...memberhoernchenmeister16 Nov '12 - 2:23 
A man moves into a nudist colony. He receives a letter from his grandmother asking him to send her a current photo of himself in his new location.

Too embarrassed to let her know that he lives in a nudist colony, he cuts a photo in half, but accidentally sends her the bottom half of the picture.

He is really worried when he realizes that he has sent the wrong half. But then he remembers how bad his grandmother's eyesight is and hopes she won't notice.

A few weeks later, he receives a letter from his grandmother. It says:

"Thank you for the picture. You should change your hair style... it makes your nose look too short"

As we went through the consultation, I couldn't get out of my mind the size of his fecking hands. As I said huge.
 
And yes there was an examination, and yes he did a cavity search, and yes it was with his finger, and YES IT FECKING WELL HURT!

Joke...bear hunting...memberhoernchenmeister15 Nov '12 - 23:53 
The IBM salesman and the IBM system analyst went to spend a weekend in the forest, hunting bear.
 
They hired a log cabin, and when they got there, took their backpacks off and put them inside.
 
At which point the salesman said to the systems analyst: "You unpack while I go and find us a bear."
 
The analyst finished unpacking and then went and sat outside to await events. He did not have to wait too long.
 
Soon he could hear noises in the forest. The noises got nearer - and suddenly there was the salesman, running across the clearing
 
toward the cabin, pursued by one of the largest and most ferocious Brown Bears the analyst had ever seen.
 
"Open the door!" shouted the salesman. The analyst opened the door. The salesman ran to the door, suddenly stopped, and stepped
 
aside.
 
The Bear carried by its momentum, continued though the door and disappeared inside.
 
The salesman promptly shut the door on it, turned, looked at the analyst, and said:
 
"Ok, you skin that one while I go rustle us up another."

Mom was overjoyed, but just couldn't believe her luck. "I suppose it's too much to ask that she's Jewish."
"Mom, not only is she Jewish, but she comes from a wealthy and prominent Beverly Hills family."
Mom was beside herself with joy. "You don't know how happy you've made me! What's her name?" "Monica Lewinsky." Mom was silent for a moment. "Whatever happened to that nice Catholic boy you were dating?"

A girl was a prostitute, but she didn't want her grandma to know. One day, the police raided a whole group of prostitutes at a sex party in a hotel and the girl was among them. The police took them outside and had all the prostitutes line up along the driveway when suddenly, the girl's grandma came by and saw her granddaughter.
 
Grandma asked, "Why are you standing in line here, dear?" Not willing to let her grandmother know the truth, the girl told her grandmother that the policemen were there passing out free oranges and she was just lining up for some.
 
"Why, that's awfully nice of them. I think I'll get some for myself," and she proceeded to the back of the line.
 
A policeman was going down the line asking for information from all of the prostitutes. When he got to Grandma, he was bewildered and exclaimed, "Wow, still going at it at your age? How do you do it?"
 
Grandma replied, "Oh, it's easy, dear. I just take my dentures out, rip the skin back and suck them dry."

Jokethe city boy...memberhoernchenmeister15 Nov '12 - 4:16 
A fellow from the city was driving through the country one day when he came upon a quaint farmhouse alongside of the road - and there was even a farmer standing out front. So the city boy decided to stop and talk to the farmer.
 
"Good morning, sir," he said, "I was driving by, admiring the country, 'cause I'm a city boy, and I couldn't help but notice that you have a field full of cows on your farm. Now I've lived in the city all my life and I've never tried any fresh country milk. If it's all right with you, I'd like to try some fresh country milk from your cows."
 
The farmer replied, "Son, those are bulls! You don't get milk from bulls!!"
 
And the city boy said, "But I won't hurt your cows. All I want to do is to try some fresh country milk."
 
The farmer had to try again, "Son, those are BULLS!! You don't get milk from BULLS!!!"
 
But the city boy persisted, "Really, I won't hurt your COWS! I just want to try some fresh country milk!!"
 
So the farmer reluctantly gave in, "Son, knock yourself out."
 
In a half an hour the city boy returned from the fields carrying a pail of fresh country milk. The farmer scratched his head and started to speak, but the city boy jumped in with, "You know, while I was out in the field getting this lovely fresh country milk, I saw a fence covered with honeysuckles. And you know, I've been city boy all my life and I've never had any fresh country honey. If it's all right with you, I'd like to try some fresh country honey from your honeysuckles."
 
And the farmer replied, "Son, honeysuckles are flowers. You get honey from bees."
 
But the city boy persisted, "I won't hurt your flowers. I just want to try some fresh country honey."
 
So the farmer tried again, "Son, honey comes from BEES!"
 
But the city boy was adamant, "Really, I won't hurt your FLOWERS! I just want to try some fresh country honey!!"
 
And the farmer reluctantly gave in again, "Son, be my guest."
 
In a half an hour the city boy boy returned with 2 mason jars full of honey. The farmer scratched his head harder than before and started to speak. Just then the city boy said, "You know, I'm a city boy - been a city boy all my life. Now while I was out getting some of that fresh country honey, I noticed that you have a field full of pussy willows ..."
 
"Son," interrupted the farmer, "let me get my hat."
