A blonde bought two horses, and could never remember which was which.
A neighbour suggested that she cut the tail of one horse and that worked great until the other horse got his tail caught in a bush.
It tore just right and looked exactly like the other horse's tail and our blonde friend was stuck again.
The neighbour suggested she put a notch in the ear of one horse.
That worked fine until the other horse caught his ear on a barbed wire fence.
Once again our friend couldn't tell them apart.
The neighbour suggested she measure the horses for height.
When she did, she was very pleased to find that the white horse was 2 inches taller than the black one.

A blonde was speeding in a 35 mile per hour zone when a police car pulled her over and walked up to her car. The police officer also happened to be a blonde and she asked for the blonde's driving licence.
The driver searched frantically in her purse for a while and finally said to the blonde policewoman "What does a driving licence look like?" Irritated, the blonde cop said "You dummy, it's got your picture on it!"
The blonde driver frantically searched her purse again and found a small rectangular mirror down at the bottom. She held it up to her face and said, "Aha! This must be my driving licence" and handed it to the blonde policewoman.
The blonde cop looked in the mirror, handed it back to the driver and said, "You're free to go. And, if I had known you were a police officer too, we could have avoided all this hassle."

Default Living Will

Last night my sister and I were sitting in the den and I said to her,

"I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and fluids from a bottle to keep me alive. That would be no quality of life at all. If that ever happens, just pull the plug."

So she got up, unplugged the computer, and threw out my wine.

You Might Be A Psychiatric Nurse If .......

you have ever restrained someone and it was not a sexual experience
you believe that 75% of people are a waste of space
discussing self harm over dinner seems quite normal to you
you find humour in other peope's stupidity
you have your weekends off planned for a year
you believe that unspeakable evils will befall you if anyone says 'isn't it quiet'
your diet consists of food that has gone through more processing than a computer can track
you believe chocolate is a food group
you have always wanted to hold a seminar called 'Suicide-Getting it Right First Time'
when you mention vegetables you are not referring to a food group
you think caffeine should be available in IV form
your favourite hallucinogen is exhaustion
you are the only person you know who uses the word 'liaise'
you have a nose finely tuned to the smells of cannabis, alcohol, stale body odour and decomposition

An autopsy professor was giving an introductory lecture to a class of students. Standing over a corpse, he addressed the class.
"There are two things you need to make a career in medical forensics. First, you must have no fear".
Having said that, he shoved his finger up the corpses anus and licked it.
"Now you must do the same", he told the class.

After a couple of minutes of uneasy silence, the class did as instructed.

"Secondly", the professor continued, "you must have an acute sense of observation. For instance, how many of you noticed that I put my middle finger up this mans anus, but licked my index finger?"

Default Overseas Call Centre

Mujibar was trying to get a job in India.

The Personnel Manager said, 'Mujibar, you have passed all the tests, except one. Unless you pass it, you cannot qualify for this job.'

Mujibar said, 'I am ready.'

The manager said, 'Make a sentence using the words Yellow, Pink and Green ' .'


Mujibar thought for a few minutes and said, 'Sir, I am ready'


The manager said, 'Go ahead.'


Mujibar said, 'The telephone goes "green green", and I pink it up, and
say,'Yellow', this is Mujibar.'


Mujibar now works at a call center.


No doubt you have spoken to him. I know I have.

George Bush met The Queen, and he turns round and says, "As I'm the President, I'm thinking of changing how the country is referred to, and I'm thinking that it should be a Kingdom."

To which the Queen replies, "I'm sorry Mr. Bush, but to be a Kingdom, you have to have a King in charge - and you're not a King."

George Bush thought a while and then said, "How about a Principality then?"

To which the Queen replied, "Again, to be a Principality you have to be a Prince - and you're not a Prince, Mr. Bush."

Bush thought long and hard and came up with, "How about an Empire then?"

The Queen, getting a little teed off by now, replied, "Sorry again, Mr. Bush, but to be an Empire you must have an Emperor in charge - and you are not an Emperor."

Before George Bush could utter another word, the Queen said, "I think you're doing quite nicely as a Country."

Default The Spoon

For all of you who frequent restaurants and understand the need for the service to be faster, this short story is a timeless lesson on how consultants can make a difference to an organisation.

Last week, we took some friends out to a new restaurant and noticed that the waiter who took our order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket. It seemed a little strange.

When another waiter brought our water, I noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then I looked around and saw that all the staff had spoons in their pockets.

When the waiter came back to serve our soup I asked, 'Why the spoon?'

'Well', he explained, 'the restaurant's owners hired a top international consultancy to revamp all our processes. After several months of analysis, they concluded that the spoon was the most frequently dropped utensil. It represents a drop frequency of approximately 3 spoons per table per hour. If our personnel are better prepared, we can reduce the number of trips back to the kitchen and save 15 man-hours per shift.'

As luck would have it, I dropped my spoon and he was able to replace it with his spare. 'I'll get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen, instead of making an extra trip to get it right now.'

I was impressed. I also noticed that there was a string hanging out of the waiter's zip. Looking around, I noticed that all the waiters had the same string hanging from their zips. So before he walked off, I asked the waiter, 'Excuse me, but can you tell me why you have that string right there?'

'Oh, certainly!' Then he lowered his voice.

'Not everyone is so observant. That consulting firm I mentioned also found out that we can save time in the lavatory. By tying this string to the tip of your know what, we can pull it out without touching it and eliminate the need to wash our hands, shortening the time spent in the toilet by 76.39 percent.

I asked 'After you get it out, how do you put it back?'

'Well,' he whispered, 'I don't know about the others, but I use the spoon.'.

I mind my own, and my own minds me
