A 90-year-old man was having his annual checkup. The doctor asked him
how he was feeling.

"I've never been better," the old man replied. "I've got an
eighteen-year-old bride who's pregnant & delivered a child.

What is your opinion about that, Doc?" the old man asked.

The doctor thought for a moment, then said, "Well, let me tell you a
story.
I know a guy who is a hunter. He never misses a season for hunting.
But, one day he's in a bit of a hurry and he accidentally grabs his
umbrella instead of his gun.
The doctor continued, "So he's walking in the woods near a creek, and
suddenly he spots a lion in some brush in front of him. He raises up his
umbrella, points it at the lion and squeezes the handle.

BAM! The lion drops dead in front of him."

"That's impossible!" said the old man in disbelief. Someone else must
have shot that lion."


"Exactly"... Said the Doc

I'd like to visit Beirut, perhaps the week between Christmas and New Years, or really any time. I'm looking to find a way to travel for free, for someone to pay me to go there.

I'm a teacher and photographer, as well as being trained in writing English. I've also worked in security and transportation. I am willing to do about anything to not pay $1400 for a ticket to Damascus. Any suggestions?

(IF YOU DON'T KNOW, AND ARE ONE OF THESE PEOPLE THAT JUST RESPOND TO SEVERAL ADS WITH THINGS LIKE 'I DON'T KNOW, BUT...' THEN SKIP TO THE NEXT QUESTION. I ONLY WANT ANSWERS FROM PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT!)

Everyone wants to trick you or to steal your money just when they see you're white. A taxy driver drove us 15 km more just so he can take more money. When we told him that we want to go by the sea when we return (that's the shorter way) he says 'OK' and we saved 5 euros. And everyone thinks they are soooo funny but their jokes are soooo lame. I am sooooo disappointed.

Saw this in the Madam & Eve cartoon.
Will tell it as a joke.
There is a conference room full of Politicians.
The main speaker stands up, and says:
"Hello everyone, and welcome to "Gay sensitvity training for politicians. " Before this course is over you will be cured of you're homophobic tendencies and learn to tolerate and appreciate the gay lifestyle.
By the way, my name is Mr. Bruce... and incase you're wondering I'll say it loud; I'm Gay and Proud!"
Suddenly there is a rattle at the back door.
The speaker roll's his eye up and says:
"All the doors are locked Mr. Zuma, you're not going anywhere, please sit down"

It's better in the cartoon, but I think is worth a chuckle.
