Not really funny, but worth knowing in case you're ever asked.

Are You Know Everything ?

The average person's left hand does 56% of the typing.

Los Angeles' full name is "El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de los Angeles de Porciuncula".

The average person falls asleep in seven minutes.

You burn more calories sleeping than you do watching television.

A shark is the only fish that can blink with both eyes.

Honey is the only food that doesn't spoil.

The longest one-syllable word in the English language is "screeched".

On a Canadian two dollar bill, the flag flying over the Parliament building is an American flag.

"I am." is the shortest complete sentence in the English language.

A traveling salesman arrives at a farmhouse and asks to spend the night.

The farmer agrees but on one condition. "We don't have any extra rooms so you'll have to sleep with my son."

The salesman says, "hold on a minute...I think I'm in the wrong joke."

Dear GOD,
Who draws the lines around the countries?
-Nan

Dear GOD,
What does it mean You are a Jealous God? I thought You had
everything.

Are you really invisible or is that just a trick?

words
in the house?

Dear GOD,
Did you mean for the giraffe to look like that or was it an

Dear GOD,
Instead of letting people die and having to make new ones, why
don't
You just keep the ones You have now?
-Jane

Dear GOD,
I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church. Is that
okay?
-Neil

Dear GOD,
Did you really mean "do unto others as they do unto you"? Because
if
you did, then I'm going to fix my brother!
-Darla

Dear GOD,
Thank you for the baby brother, but what I prayed for was a puppy.
-Joyce

Dear GOD,
It rained for our whole vacation and is my father mad! He said some

things about You that people are not supposed to say, but I hope
You

-Mickey D.

Dear GOD,
I would like to live 900 years like the guy in the Bible.

Sincerely, Donna

In case you didn't know....

What's the difference between a wife, a nympho, and a hooker?
The nympho says, "You're done already?"

The hooker says, "Are you done yet?"

And the wife says, "Beige, I think I'll paint the ceiling beige."

Horse Country

A man walked into a cowboy bar and ordered a beer just as President G W Bush appeared on the television. After a few sips, he looked up at the television and mumbled, "Now, there's the biggest horse's as s I've ever seen." A customer at the end of the bar quickly stood up, walked over to him, and decked him.
A few minutes later, as the man was finishing his beer, Laura Bush appeared on the television. "She's a horse's as s too," the man. This time, a customer at the other end of the bar quickly stood up, walked over to him, and knocked him off his stool. "Damn it!" the man said, climbing back up to the bar. "This must be Bush country!"

"Nope," the bartender replied. "Horse country!"

From my favorite Jewish humor site...

The Philosopher


A young man was going to evening classes in philosophy to improve his education and when he came home his father always asked him what he'd learned.
"This evening we talked about Einstein and the Theory of Relativity"
"Voos is doos der Theory of Relativity?"
"Well it shows that everything is relative. If you were sitting on a hot stove for five minutes it would seem like an hour, but if you were making love to a beautiful woman for an hour it would seem like five minutes."
The old man thought for a minute. "And from this Einstein makes a living"

The pig with a wooden leg


A rabbi is driving down a country road one day and sees a pig in an
open field with a wooden leg. Taken aback by his curiosity, he pulls into the driveway of a farm just up the road and rings the doorbell.
A farmer answers the door and greets the rabbi. "Hello there, Mr. Bearded Man.May I help you?" asks the farmer.
"Yes you may", says the rabbi. "I
couldn't help but notice that you have a pig with a wooden leg out in your field. What's up with that?"
"Listen", says the farmer. "That is one great pig. One day I was plowing my field and my tractor turned over right on top of me. That pig came over and pulled me out from underneath the mess and saved my life."
"That's great" said the rabbi, "but what's with the wooden leg?"
"Listen" says the farmer, "one night a fire started in our kitchen while my family was sleeping. That pig came over to the house, knocked on the window with his nose, woke us up, and saved my whole family. That is one great pig."
"Yes" said the rabbi, now growing a bit frustrated. "I see this is one great pig. But again, what's with the wooden leg?"
"Oh" says the farmer. "The wooden leg?..... well....a great
pig like that.....you can't eat him all at once."

Well, Kenny the rooster costs a lot of money, but the
farmer decides he'd be worth it. So, he buys Kenny.

The farmer takes Kenny home and sets him down
in the barnyard, first giving the rooster a pep talk.

I want you to pace yourself now. You've got a lot of
chickens to service here, and you cost me a lot of money.
Consequently, I'll need you to do a good job. So, take your
time and have some fun," the farmer said, with a chuckle.



Kenny seemed to understand, so the farmer pointed
toward the hen house and Kenny took off like a shot.
WHAM! Kenny nails every hen in the hen
house, the farmer is completely shocked!

After that, the farmer hears a commotion in the
duck pen, sure enough, Kenny is in there.

Later, the farmer sees Kenny after a flock of geese, down
by the lake. Once again - WHAM! He gets all the geese.



By sunset he sees Kenny out in the fields chasing
quail and pheasants. The farmer is distraught and worried
that his expensive rooster won't even last 24 hours.

Sure enough, the farmer goes to bed and wakes up
the next day, to find Kenny on his back, stone cold
in the middle of the yard with vultures circling overhead.

The farmer, saddened by the loss of such a colorful and
expensive animal, shakes his head and says, "Oh, Kenny,
I told you to pace yourself and I tried to get you to
slow down, now look what you've done to yourself."



Kenny opens one eye, nods toward the vultures circling
in the sky and says, "Shhh, they're getting closer".
