FREE SNOW SHOVELING CLASS: 
Soon I will be holding a FREE snow shoveling class in my driveway. Come and join the class and learn about the proper ways to shovel. Reviewed techniques will include the scoop and throw method, the down and push method (AKA the plow technique), as well as the upside-down scraping technique. Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity to enhance your snow lifting techniques without throwing your back out! I will provide the driveway to ensure your training is conducted in the most life-like situation, I only ask that you bring your own shovel (Ergonomical designs suggested). PM me for additional details and times. Space is limited and handled on a first-come-first-served basis. Subject to date change depending on total accumulation. 
Call me, beverages will be served!

A man is in court. The judge says, "on the 3rd of August you are accused of killing your wife by beating her to death with a hammer, how do you plead?" : "Guilty", said the man in the dock. At this point, a man at the back of the court stood up and shouted "You dirty rat!" The Judge asked the man to sit down and to refrain from making any noise. The Judge continued "..... and that also on the 17th September you are accused of killing your son by beating him to death with a hammer, how do you plead"? "Guilty", said the man in the dock. Again the same man at the back stood up and shouted even louder, "You dirty rotten stinking rat"!! At this point, the Judge called the man to the bench and said, "I have already asked you to be quiet, if you continue with these outbursts, I will have to charge you with contempt of court. I can understand your feelings, but what relationship have you to this man?" He replied "He is my next-door neighbor". The Judge replied, "I can understand your feelings then, but you must refrain from any comments". The man replied "NO, your Honor, you don't understand. Twice I have asked if I could borrow a hammer, and BOTH TIMES he said he didn't have one"!

(true or not, they're funny.)
My husband and I went through the McDonald's driveway window and I gave the cashier a $5 bill.
Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her 25c.
She said, 'you gave me too much money.'
I said, 'Yes I know, but this way you can just give me a dollar back.'
She sighed and went to get the manager who asked me to repeat my request.
I did so, and he handed me back the 25c, and said 'We're sorry but we don’t do that kind of thing.'
The cashier then proceeded to give me back 75 cents in change.
Do not confuse the people at MacD's.
(If you really want to mess with the cashiers at fast food places, go to the bank and get some $2 bills.)

We had to have the garage door repaired.
The repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a 'large' enough motor on the opener.
I thought for a minute and said that we had the largest one made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower.
He shook his head and said, 'You need a 1/4 horsepower.'
I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4 and he said, 'NOOO, it's not. Four is larger than two.'
We haven't used that repairman since...

I live in a semi-rural area.
We recently had a new neighbor call the local city council office to request the removal of the DEER CROSSING sign on our road.
The reason: 'Too many deers are being hit by cars out here! I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore.'

IDIOT SIGHTING IN FOOD SERVICE.
My daughter went to a Mexican fast-food and ordered a taco.
She asked the person behind the counter for 'minimal lettuce.'
He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce.

I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked,
'Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?'
To which I replied, 'If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?'
He smiled knowingly and nodded, 'That's why we ask.'

The pedestrian light on the corner beeps when it's safe to cross the street.
I was crossing with an 'intellectually challenged' co-worker of mine.
She asked if I knew what the beeper was for.
I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red.
Appalled, she responded, 'what on earth are blind people doing driving?!'
She is a government employee.....

When my wife and I arrived at a car dealership to pick up our car after a
service, we were told the keys had been locked in it.
We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver’s side door.
As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked.
‘Hey,' I announced to the technician, 'it's open!'
His reply, 'I know. I already did that side.'

STAY ALERT!
They walk among us, they breed.

Some gems today but I really don't understand this one.
My boyfriends' first language isn't English and he asked me how to say "cut" in the past tense.
I said "cut" and he let out a wail of anguish and fell to the ground.

Mike said...

Sue - Present tense and past tense of cut are the same word which apparently is not common in foreign languages.

Bilbo said...

No Republican hears the three silent "k's" in "Republican."

Shaw Kenawe said...

"I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4 and he said, 'NOOO, it's not. Four is larger than two."

Try this on the average high school student or college grad:

"What's one half of two thirds."

I've yet to get the correct answer.

Debra She Who Seeks said...

Hahahaha, free snow shoveling class!

Kathy G said...

"Cashier: That's $25.25.
Me: šŸŽµIf man is still alive, if a woman can survive...šŸŽµ

You have to be old to get this one!

Lady M said...

I loved the one about the silent K - it took me a second but then I cracked up. When my daughter was about 4 she used to say nake as in "I nake" obviously when she did not have clothing on. I still use it to this day cause it is so cute. I recognized "holy smoke". That proves you watched profit. Glad you found some blog fodder there.

Mike said...

Bill - Sadly true.

Shaw - It's so obviously 1/3 that I had to check to make sure I wasn't missing a trick question.

Deb - I'm desperately looking for students right now.

Kathy - That's why I got it right away.

Lady - Do you pull out pictures of the "I nake" person to embarrass her? (Sort of like the one year old bathtub pictures.)

Ole Phat Stu said...

Re : "I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4 and he said, 'NOOO, it's not. Four is larger than two." My feelings were reciprocal.

See my blog for Feb. 3rd and read all the comments ;-)

Mike said...

Stu - How many garage door motors have burned up over the years being underpowered by this guy?

River said...

I'll pass on the snow shovelling lesson, it's like Algebra, I'll never need it. I got the $25.25.
Love all the rest of them, specially the cabin in the woods.

Mike said...

River - But the snow shoveling lessons are free, I know you can't pass that up so I've signed you up.

Cloudia said...

Thanks mike, this is a public service at this point

jenny_o said...

I cracked up at slippery hickory dock and again at the TWO airhorns (not just one) ... thanks for the smiles :)

Mike said...

Cloudia - We need jokes that are funny and not politicians.

Jenny - Did you picture the airhorn guy doing that?

greggBC said...

Had a plumber actually say that water at the same water pressure would flow faster through a 3/4" pipe than it would a 1/2" pipe.

Mike said...

Greg - And he could prove it by filling up a bucket faster. šŸ˜‚
