Prince Charles was driving his Range Rover around on the Sandringham estate when suddenly a corgi rushed out in front of him from behind a bush. He didn't have time to stop or swerve, and squished it flat.

He got out of the car, and recognising that the corgi he had just turned to mush was his mother's favourite just stood there distraught, head in hands.

"What am I going to do? Mama's favourite corgi and I've flattened it. Oh dear me......"

Just when he had plucked up the courage to go and tell the Queen of her loss, out from behind a tree popped a leprechaun!!!

"It'll be your lucky day, Sir, it will" said the leprechaun.

"Lucky day?! I've just run over my mother's favourite corgi......how can it be my lucky day?"

"Well, you've just met Seamus the Leprechaun, and he grants you two wishes"

"You have magic powers?" asks the Prince.

"Of course" said Seamus, "and you can have two wishes".

"Ok", said Charles quickly......."My first wish is that you restore this corgi to life".

Seamus walked over to the flattened corgi, took one look at the squished body and said "No chance, sorry. That dog is squashed flat and beyond even my powers. Absolutely nothing can be done for it, poor soul. Its gone. Dead. History. Kaput."

Charles thought for a minute and then asked...."I still have one wish left?"

"Surely, you do" said Seamus.

"Right, my good man......my second wish is that you make Camilla beautiful"

Seamus replied:

A game of golf



Four old-timers were playing their weekly game of golf, and one remarked how nice it would be to wake up on Christmas morning, roll out of bed and without an argument, go directly to the golf course, meet his buddies and play a round.

His buddies all chimed in and said, 'Let's do it! We'll make it a priority, figure out a way and meet here early Christmas morning.'

Months later, that special morning arrives, and there they are on the golf course.

The first guy says, 'Boy this game cost me a fortune! I bought my wife such a diamond ring that she can't take her eyes off it.'

Number 2 guy says, 'I spent a ton, too. My wife is at home planning the cruise I gave her. She was up to her eyeballs in brochures.'

Number 3 guy says 'Well my wife is at home admiring her new car, reading the manual.'

They all turned to the last guy in the group who is staring at them like they have lost their minds.

'I can't believe you all went to such expense for this golf game. I woke up, slapped my wife on the butt and said, 'Well babe, Merry Christmas! It's a great morning for either sex or golf.'



......and she said





'Take a sweater'.
 
My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire
while we were in bed. I turned to her and said,

"Do you want to have sex?"

"No," she answered.

I then said, "Is that your final answer?"

She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying "Yes."

So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend."

And then the fight started....


********

After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security.

The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age.
I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home.

I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later

The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'.

So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.

She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me'

And she processed my Social Security application.

When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience
at the Social Security office.

She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have
gotten Disability, too'

And then the fight started.....

Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my
lunch, grabbed the dog, and slipped quietly into the garage .

I hooked up the boat up to the truck, and proceeded to back
out into a torrential downpour .

The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the
garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather
would be bad all day.

I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped
back into bed.

I cuddled up to my wife's back, now with a different
anticipation, and whispered, 'The weather out there is terrible.'

My loving wife of 10 years replied, 'Can you believe my
stupid husband is out fishing in that?'

And that's how the fight started ...


****

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school
reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she
sat alone at a nearby table.

My wife asked, 'Do you know her?'

'Yes,' I sighed, 'she's my old girlfriend. I understand she
took to drinking right after we split up those many & years ago, and I
hear she hasn't been sober since.'

'My God!' says my wife, 'Who would think a person could go o n
celebrating that long?'

And then the fight started.....


****

I rear-ended a car this morning.

So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other
driver got out of his car.

You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little
things just seem funny?

Yeah, well I couldn't believe it.... He was a DWARF!!!

He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, 'I
AM NOT HAPPY! !!'

So, I looked down at him and said, 'Well, then which one are
you?'

And then the fight started.....


****

I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason,
took my order first.

'I'll have the strip steak, medium rare, please.'

He said, 'Aren't you worried about the mad cow?'

'Nah, she can order for herself.'

And then the fight started.....


****

A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror.

She is not happy with what she sees and says to her husband,
'I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me
a compliment.'

The husband replies, 'Your eyesight's darn near perfect.'

And then the fight started.....

A woman went to a WalMart service counter and told the clerk she wanted a refund

for the toaster she bought because it won't work The clerk told her that he can't give her

a refund because she bought it on special.

Suddenly, the woman threw her arms up in the air and started screaming,



'PINCH MY NIPPLES,PINCH MY NIPPLES,PINCH MY NIPPLES!!!!!!'

The befuddled clerk ran away to get the store manager In front of a growing crowd of customers.

The manager comes to the woman and asks, 'Ma'am what's wrong?'

She explains the problem with the toaster, and he also tells her that he can't give her a refund because she bought it on special.

Once again, the woman throws her arms up in the air and screams,



'PINCH MY NIPPLES,PINCH MY NIPPLES,PINCH MY NIPPLES!!!'?

Which begins to draw an even bigger crowd!

In shock, the store manager pleads,

'Ma'am, why are you saying that?'



In a huff, the woman says,





'BECAUSE, I LIKE TO HAVE MY NIPPLES PINCHED WHEN I'M BEING SCREWED!!'

The crowd broke into applause and her money was quickly refunded!!


Now stop laughing and send it to your friends.

Gordon Brown was visiting a primary school in North Yorkshire where helooked in on one of the classes. They were in the middle of a discussion related to words andtheir meanings.

The teacher asked Mr. Brown if he would like to lead the
discussion on the word 'tragedy'.
So the illustrious leader asked the class for an example of
a 'tragedy'.
A little boy stood up and offered: 'If my best friend, who
lives on a farm, is playing in the field & a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a 'tragedy.'
No,' said Brown........' that would be an accident.'
A little girl raised her hand: 'If a school bus carrying
fifty children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy'
'I'm afraid not,' explained Mr. Brown ' that's what we would
call great loss'
The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Gordon
Brown searched the room. 'Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?'
Finally, at the back of the room, little Johnny raised his hand.
In a quiet voice he said: 'If a plane carrying you and your entire labour cabinet was struck by a 'friendly fire' missile & blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy.'
'Fantastic!' exclaimed Brown. 'That's right. And can you tell
me why that would be tragedy?'
'Well,' says little Johnny 'it has to be a tragedy, because
it certainly wouldn't be a great loss and it probably wouldn't be a f**king accident either!'
 
I can't really comment on that one! On the grounds I might be divulging my political leanings; or my familiarity with portable G to A Missiles.

After months of saving, Italian Genaro purchases a £300 pair of Boccelli leather shoes. Every Friday night the Italian community holds a dance in the church basement.

Gennaro seizes this opportunity to wear his new Boccelli leather shoes for the first time.

He asks Sophia to dance and as they dance he asks her, 'Sophia, do you wear red panties tonight?'

Startled, Sophia replies, 'Yes, Gennaro, I do wear red panties tonight, But how do you know?'

Gennaro answers, 'I see the reflection in my new £300 Boccelli leather shoes.

Next he asks Rosa to dance, and after a few minutes he asks,

' Rosa , do you wear white panties tonight?'

Rosa answers, 'Yes, Gennaro, I do, But how do you know that?'

He replies, 'I see the reflection in my new £300 Boccelli leather shoes.

For the last dance Gennaro asks Carmela to dance.

Midway through the dance his face turns red.

He states, 'Carmela, be stilla my heart, Please, please tell me you wear no panties tonight, Please, please, tella me this true!'

Carmela smiles coyly and answers, 'Yes Gennaro, I wear no panties tonight.'

Gennaro gasps, 'Thanka God .... I thought I had a crack in my £300 Boccelli leather shoes!'

Walter's Wonderful World of Wasps

Walter Willoughby was a wasp expert. He reckoned he could identify any wasp just by the sound it makes. You could say that he was a bit of a Wizard with Wasps.

One day Walter was walking past Rodney’s Records, when he spotted something in the window. It was an old shabby LP called The Wonderful World of Wasps.

“Ooh, that’s interesting”, thought Walter, “The Wonderful World of Wasps. that’s right up my street. If there is anything new on there I’ll be even more of a wizard on wasps”.

Walter went inside and went up to Rodney, the Sole Prop of Rodney’s Records, to enquire about the record in the window. “Hello,” said Walter, “I’d like to listen to the record you have in the window, Wasp World”.

“Oh yes,” replied Rodney, “do you mean The Wonderful World of Wasps?”

“Yes, that’s the one,” replied Walter, “The wonderful World of Wasps. You see, I am a big fan of wasps; I can identify any wasp just from its sound. In fact, some people say that I’m a bit of a wizard with wasps.”

“I’ll put it on for you, you can listen in booth number 4.”

So Walter went over to the booth and put on the headphones.

Imagine his delight when the sound started. The very first track was a brand new sound he’d never heard before! More wonderful wasp sounds to make him even more of a wizard with wasps. Fantastic!

But wait – what’s this? Track 2 was new, too. Surely not, TWO new wasps sounds he hadn’t heard before, this was wonderful beyond his wildest dreams.

But then came track three and track four, both brand new wasp sounds. This was getting fishy and Walter didn’t like it. Perhaps he wasn’t such a wizard after all. Walter reckoned something must be wrong.

So he went back to Rodney, the Sole Prop of Rodney’s Records, and asked:

“I’m sorry to bother you, Rodney, but I am an expert on wasps. I can identify any wasp by its sound, that’s why people say that I am a bit of a wizard with wasps. But this record is full of sounds I’ve not heard before. That seems very strange. Can you please check that you put the right record on?”

Now Rodney, the Sole Prop of Rodney’s Records, was none too pleased at having his professional competence queried, but he knew of Walter’s reputation as a bit of a wizard with wasps, so he went to check. It was a good job he did, really, because he had to come back and eat humble pie.

“I’m terribly sorry, Walter,” admitted Rodney, the Sole Prop of Rodney’s Records, “I made a mistake.”

“I’d put on the bee side!”
 
This lady approaches a priest and tells him, 'Father, I have a problem. I have these two talking female parrots, but they only know how to say one thing.'

'What do they say?' the priest asked.

'They only know how to say, 'Hi, we are prostitutes. Do you want to have some fun?''

'That's terrible!' the priest exclaimed, 'But I have a solution to your problem. Bring your two talking female parrots over to my house and I will put them with my two male talking parrots who I have taught to pray and read the Bible. My parrots will teach your parrots to stop saying that terrible phrase and your female parrots will learn to pray and worship.'

'Thank you,' said the lady.

The next day, the lady brings her female parrots to the priest's house. The priest's two male parrots are holding rosary beads and praying in their cage.

The lady puts her female talking parrots in with the male talking parrots and the female parrots say, 'Hi, we are prostitutes! Do you want to have some fun?'

One male parrot looks over to the other male parrot and screams, 'Frank! Put the Bibles away--our prayers have been answered!'
