None. They have a machine that does that now.

There was a young lady of Natchez
Who chanced to be born with two snatches,
And she often said, "****!
Why, I'd give either tit
For a man with equipment that matches."
There was a young fellow named Locke
Who was born with a two-headed cock.
When he'd fondle the thing
It would rise up and sing
An antiphonal chorus by Bach.
But whether these two ever met
Has not been recorded as yet,
Still, it would be diverting
To see him inserting
His whang while it sang a duet.
How do you know when a drummer is knocking at your door?

Pluralism
We'll begin with a box and the plural is boxes.
But the plural of ox should be oxen, not oxes.
The one fowl is a goose but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone mouse or a whole set of mice,
Yet the plural of house is houses not hice.
If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen?
If I speak of a foot and you show me your feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why should not the plural of booth be called beeth?
Then one may be that and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural wouldn't be hose.
And the plural of cat is cats and not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say Mother, we never say Methren,
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine she, shis and shim,
So English, I fancy you will all agree,
Is the funniest language you ever did see.
Precisely!

The British Government's policy of socialized medicine has recently
been broadened to include a service called "Proxy Fathers". Under the
government plan, any married woman who is unable to become pregnant
through the first five years of her marriage may request the service
of a proxy father--a government employee who attempts to solve the
couple's problem by impregnating the wife.
The Smiths, a young couple, have no children and a proxy father is
due to arrive. Leaving for work, Mr. Smith says, "I'm off. The
government man should be here soon."
Moments later a door-to-door baby photographer rings the bell...
Mrs. Smith: "Good morning."
Salesman: "Good morning, madam. You don't know me, but I've come
to..."
Mrs. Smith: "No need to explain, I've been expecting you."
Salesman: "Really? Well, good. I've made a specialty of babies,
especially twins."
Mrs. Smith: "That's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come
in and have a seat."
Salesman: (Sitting) "Then you don't need to be sold on the idea?
Mrs. Smith: "Don't concern yourself. My husband and I both agree
that this is the right thing to do."
Salesman: "Well, perhaps we should get down to it."
Mrs. Smith: (Blushing) "Just where do we start?"
Salesman: "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub,
one on the couch and perhaps a couple on the bed. Sometimes the
living room floor allows the subject to really spread out."
Mrs. Smith: "Bathtub, living room floor? No wonder it hasn't worked
for Harry and I."
Salesman: "Well, madam, none of us can guarantee a good one every
time, but if we try several locations and I shoot from six or seven
angles, I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results. In fact, my
business card says, 'I aim to please.'"
Mrs. Smith: "Pardon me, but isn't this a little informal?"
Salesman: "Madam, in my line of work, a man must be at ease and take
his time. I'd love to be in and out in five minutes, but you'd be
disappointed with that."
Mrs. Smith: "Don't I know! Have you had much success at this?"
Salesman: (Opening his briefcase and finding baby pictures)
"Just look at this picture. Believe it or not, it was done on top of
a bus in downtown London."
Mrs. Smith: "Oh, my!!"
Salesman: "And here are pictures of the prettiest twins in town.
They turned out exceptionally well when you consider their mother
was so difficult to work with."
Mrs. Smith: "She was?"
Salesman: "Yes, I'm afraid so. I finally had to take her down to
Hyde Park to get the job done right. I've never worked under such
impossible conditions. People were crowding around four and five
deep, pushing to get a good look."
Mrs. Smith: "Four and five deep?"
Salesman: "Yes and for more than three hours, too. The mother got
so excited she started bouncing around, squealing and yelling at the
crowd. I couldn't concentrate. I'm afraid I had to ask a couple of men
no restrain her. By that time darkness was appoaching and I began
to rush my shots. When the squirrels began nibbling on my equipment
I just packed it all in.
Mrs. Smith: "You mean they actually chewed on your, eh..,
equipment?"
Salesman: "That's right, but it's all in a day's work. I consider
my work a pleasure. I've spent years perfecting my technique.
Now take this baby, I shot this one in the front window of a big
department store."
Mrs. Smith: "I just can't believe it."
Salesman: "Well, madam, if you're ready, I'll set up my tripod so
that we can get to work."
Mrs. Smith: "TRIPOD?!?"
Salesman: "Oh yes, I have to use a tripod to rest my equipment on.
It's much too heavy and unwieldy for me to hold while I'm shooting.
Mrs. Smith?... Mrs. Smith?... My word, she's fainted."

A salesman was traveling through the country side, flogging insect
repellent. He came to a farmhouse and tried his pitch on the farmer.
"Sir, my bug spray is so good you will never be bitten again. I guarantee
it."
The farmer was dubious. "Young man, I'll make you a proposition. I'll tie
you out in my cornfield buck naked, covered with that bug spray. If there
is not a single bite on you come morning, I'll buy a whole case from you."
The salesman was delighted. They went to the field and he stripped.
The farmer sprayed him thoroughly with the bug spray and tied him to a
stake. Back to the house went the farmer.
The next morning, the farmer and his family trooped out to the cornfield.
Sure enough, the salesman was there, hanging in his bonds, not a single
bite on him. Yet he was a total wreck! Pale, ghastly, haggard, and
drawn,
but not one bite on him.
The farmer was perplexed. "Son," he said, "Now, you don't have a bite on
you but you look like hell! What the devil happened?"
The salesman looked up through bloodshot eyes and croaked, "Jeezus
Christ,
Mister, Doesn't that calf have a mother?!!!"
A young boy had just gotten his driving permit. He asked his
father, who was a minister, if they could discuss the use of the
car. His father took him to his study and said to him, "I'll
make a deal with you. You bring your grades up, study your bible
a little and get your hair cut and we'll talk about it."
After about a month the boy came back and again asked his father
if they could discuss use of the car. They again went to the
father's study where his father said, "Son, I've been real proud
of you. You have brought your grades up, you've studied your
bible diligently, but you didn't get your hair cut!"
The young man waited a moment and replied, "You know Dad, I've
been thinking about that. You know, Samson had long hair, Moses
had long hair, Noah had long hair, and even Jesus had long
hair...."
To which his father replied... "Yes, and they WALKED every where
they went!"
An Illinois man left Chicago for a vacation in Florida.
His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him the next day.
When he reached his hotel he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail.
Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her e-mail address, he did his best to type it from memory.
Unfortunately, he missed one letter and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher’s wife, whose husband had passed away only the day before.
When the grieving widow checked her e-mail, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing scream, and fell to the floor dead.
At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen:
Dearest Wife,
Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your arrival tomorrow.
Your Loving Husband.
P.S: Sure is hot down here.
Two parents take their son on vacation and go to a nude beach. The
Father goes for a walk on the beach and the son goes to play in the water.
Shortly thereafter, the boy runs to his mother and says, "Mommy, I saw some ladies with boobies a lot bigger than yours!"
The mother cleverly replies, "The bigger they are, the dumber they are!"
With that, the little boy runs back into the water and continues to play. Several minutes later, though, the little boy runs back to his mother and says, "Mommy, I saw some men with dongs a lot bigger than Daddy's!"
"The bigger they are, the dumber they are!" she replies.
With that, the little boy runs back into the water and continues to
play.
Several minutes later, though, the little boy runs back to his mother
and says, "Mommy, I just saw Daddy talking to the dumbest lady I
ever saw and the more he talked, the dumber he got!"
CREATION
God created the mule, and told him, "You will be mule, working
constantly from dusk to dawn, carrying heavy loads on your back.
You will eat grass and lack intelligence. You will live for 50 years."
The mule answered, "To live like this for 50 years is too much.
Please, give me no more than 20." And it was so.
Then God created the dog, and told him, "You will hold vigilance
over the dwellings of Man, to whom you will be his greatest
companion. You will eat his table scraps and live for 25 years."
And the dog responded, "Lord, to live 25 years as a dog like that
is too much. Please, no more than 10 years." And it was so.
God then created the monkey, and told him, "You are monkey. You
shall swing from tree to tree, acting like an idiot. You will be
funny, and you shall live for 20 years." And the monkey
responded, "Lord, to live 20 years as the clown of the world is
too much. Please, Lord, give me no more than 10 years." And it
was so.
Finally, God created Man and told him, "You are Man, the only
rational being that walks the earth. You will use your
intelligence to have mastery over the creatures of the world. You
will dominate the earth and live for 20 years."
And the man responded, "Lord, to be Man for only 20 years is too
little. Please, Lord, give me the 20 years the mule refused, the
15 years the dog refused, and the 10 years the monkey rejected."
And it was so.
And so God made Man to live 20 years as a man, then marry and
live 20 years like a mule working and carrying heavy loads on his
back. Then, he is to have children and live 15 years as a dog,
guarding his house and eating the leftovers after they empty the
pantry; then, in his old age, to live 10 years as a monkey,
acting like an idiot to amuse his grandchildren. And it is so.

12) "Not the sharpest knife in the drawer."
13) "Got into the gene pool while the lifeguard wasn't watching."
14) "A room temperature IQ."
15) "Got a full 6-pack, but lacks the plastic thingy to hold it all together."
16) "A gross ignoramus -- 144 times worse than an ordinary ignoramus."

20) "One-celled organisms out score him in IQ tests."
21) "Donated his brain to science before he was done using it."
22) "Fell out of the family tree."
23) "Gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train isn't coming."
24) "Has two brains; one is lost and the other is out looking for it."
25) "He's so dense, light bends around him."
26) "If brains were taxed, he'd get a rebate."
27) "If he were any more stupid, he'd have to be watered twice a week"
28) "If you give him a penny for his thoughts, you'd get change."
29) "If you stand close enough to him, you can hear the ocean."
30) "It's hard to believe that he beat out 1,000,000 other sperm."
31) "One neuron short of a synapse. "
32) "Some drink from the fountain of knowledge; he only gargled"

It was last Wednesday night, and I was sitting in my room
watching television when the phone rang.
"Hello?"
A girl's voice came over the line. "Can I speak to Ben, please?"
I live by myself, and my name definitely is not Ben. It was
probably a wrong number and I was bored.
"I'm sorry, he's not in right now. Can I take a message?"
"Do you know what time he'll be back?" she responded.
"I think he said he'd be home around 10:00."
Silence on the other end... a confused silence.
"Is this Steve?"
My name isn't Steve, either. This was definitely a wrong number.
"Yes, it is. Do you want to leave a message for Ben?"
"Well... he said he would be home tonight and asked me to
call him..." she said in a slightly irritated voice.
I replied, "Well, he went out with Karen about an hour ago,
and said that he would be back at 10:00."
A shocked voice now: "Who's Karen?!"
"The girl he went out with."
"I know that! I mean... who is she?"
"I don't know her last name. Look, do you want me to leave a
message for Ben?"
"Yes... please do. Tell him to call me when he gets home."
She was sounding pretty irate at this point, and I could hear
her temper flaring. "I sure will. Is this Jennifer?"
She exploded this time. "Who's Jennifer?"
Apparently she wasn't.
"Well... he's going out with Jennifer at 10:00. I thought you
were her. Sorry... it was an honest mistake."
"Ben's the one that's made the mistake! Tell him that Alice
called him and the she's very upset and that I would like him
to call me as soon as he gets home."
I smiled and said, "Okay, I will... but Becky isn't going to
like this..."

Q: What's the difference between love, true love and showing

A: Spit, swallow and blowing bubbles
The local United Way office realized that it had never received
a donation from the town's most successful lawyer, so a
volunteer was sent to solicit his donation.
"Sir, you have a successful law practice. You must be worth
millions. Surely you could give back a little to your community
through The United Way."
The lawyer said, "First, are you aware that my mother is dying
from a long, painful illness? And that she has medical bills far
beyond her ability to pay?"
Embarrassed, the United Way rep mumbled, "Uh, no."
"Second, did you know my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind,
confined to a wheelchair, and unable to support his wife and six
children?"
The stricken United Way rep mumbled another, "Uh, no."
"Third, do you realize that my sister's husband died in a
dreadful traffic accident leaving her penniless, with a huge
mortgage and three young children?"
The United Way rep was humiliated. "No, sir. I had no idea."
The lawyer concluded, "Well, then. If I don't give any money to
them, why do you think I'd give any to you?!"
