Bear on the roof A man wakes up one morning to find a bear on his roof. So he looks in the yellow pages and sure enough, there's an ad for "Bear Removers." He calls the number, and the bear remover says he'll be over in 30 minutes. The bear remover arrives, and gets out of his van. He's got a ladder, a baseball bat, a shotgun and a mean old pit bull. "What are you going to do," the homeowner asks? "I'm going to put this ladder up against the roof, then I'm going to go up there and knock the bear off the roof with this baseball bat. When the bear falls off, the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles and not let go. The bear will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van." He hands the shotgun to the homeowner. "What's the shotgun for?" asks the homeowner. "If the bear knocks me off the roof, shoot the dog." ID: 533487 ·

The man guesses there must be thousands of dollars in it!! He approaches the bartender and asks, "What's up with the jar?" The bartender answered, "Well...you pay ten dollars, and IF you pass 3 tests, you get all the money!!!" The man certainly isn't going to pass this up and he asks, "What are the 3 tests?" "Pay FIRST..." says the bartender..."Those are the rules." So the man gives him $10 and the bartender drops it into the jar. "OK," thebartender says, "here's what you have to do." FIRST: "You have to drink that ENTIRE GALLON of Pepper Tequila the WHOLE thing, all at ONCE and you CAN'T make a face while doing it." SECOND: "There's a Pit Bull chained-up out back with a sore tooth. You have to REMOVE the bad tooth with your BARE HANDS." THIRD: "There's a 90 year-old woman upstairs who has NEVER reached orgasm during intercourse. You've gotta MAKE THINGS RIGHT for her." The man is stunned. "I know I paid my $10, but I'm not an IDIOT! I WON'T DO IT!! You'd have to be NUTS to drink a gallon of Pepper Tequila, and then DO those OTHER THINGS!!!" "Your call," says the bartender, "but your MONEY stays where it is." The man has a few drinks...then a few more. Finally he asks, "WHERRRE'S ZAAAAT TEQUIIIIIILA?????" He grabs the gallon of Pepper Tequila with both hands and downs it with a BIG slurp. Tears are streaming down both of his cheeks, but he doesn't make a face. Next, he staggers out back to where the Pit Bull is chained-up. The people inside the bar hear a HUGE, NOISY, WILD SCUFFLE going on outside. They hear the Pit Bull barking, then they hear the guy screaming. The Pit Bull is yelping..and then SILENCE. Just when they think the man SURELY must be dead, he staggers back into the bar with his shirt ripped and Large Bloody Scratches all over his body. "NOW" He says "WHERE'S THE OLD WOMAN WITH THE SORE TOOTH???" ID: 533603 ·

I guess I better see a doctor." "Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money," Mike replies. "There's a diagnostic computer down at Wal-Mart. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars... a lot cheaper than a doctor." So Joe puts a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Wal-Mart. He deposits ten dollars, and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout: "You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in two weeks.Thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart." That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe began wondering if the computer could be fooled. He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample for good measure. Joe hurried back to Wal-Mart, eager to check the results. He deposited ten dollars, poured in his concoction, and awaited the results. The computer then prints the following: 1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. (Aisle 9) 2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo. (Aisle 7) 3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab. 4. Your wife is pregnant, Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer. 5. If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better. Thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart Account frozen... ID: 533605 ·

He sits down, noticing that the seat next to him is empty. He leans over and asks his neighbor if someone will be sitting there. "No," says the neighbor. "The seat is empty." "This is incredible", said the man. "Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for final game of the Stanley Cup playoffs and not use it?" The neighbor says, "Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first Stanley Cup we haven't been to together since we got married in 1967." "Oh ... I'm sorry to hear that. That's terrible. But couldn't you find someone else, a friend or relative, or even a neighbor to take the seat?" The man shakes his head "No. They're all at the funeral. Account frozen... ID: 533612 ·

A huge heart covered in flowers stood behind the casket during the service. Following the eulogy, the heart opened, and the casket rolled inside. The heart then closed, sealing the doctor in the beautiful heart forever. At that point, one of the mourners burst into laughter. When all eyes stared at him, he said, "I'm sorry, I was just thinking of my own funeral..... I'm a gynecologist." That's when the proctologist fainted. Account frozen... ID: 533624 ·

The guy from Corona sits down and says, "Hey Senor, I would like the world's best beer, a Corona." The bartender dusts off a bottle from the shelf and gives it to him. The guy from Budweiser says, "I'd like the best beer in the world, give me 'The King Of Beers', a Budweiser." The bartender gives him one. The guy from Coors says, "I'd like the only beer made with Rocky Mountain spring water, give me a Coors." He gets it. The guy from Molson sits down and says, "Give me a Coke." The bartender is a little taken aback, but gives him what he ordered. The other brewery presidents look over at him and ask, "Why aren't you drinking a Molson's?" The Molson president replies, "Well, I figured if you guys aren't drinking beer, neither would I." DONATE TO SETI ID: 533628 ·

"If I show you something else amazing, will you give me another beer?" The bartender agrees, so the guy pulls out a small piano and a hamster and a frog. Now the hamster plays the piano while the frog dances and sings "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" by Bachman-Turner Overdrive. The bartender, completely wowed, gives him another beer. A man in a suit, who's been watching the entire time, offers to buy the frog for a princely sum, which the man agrees to. "Are you nuts?" asks the bartender. "You could've made a fortune off that frog." "Can you keep a secret?" asks the man. "The hamster's a ventriloquist." Account frozen... ID: 534057 ·

An elderly lady goes into the doctor and tells him - "Doctor, I don't know what the problem is, but I've been farting all the time. It's not really a problem socially because they don't make any noise and don't smell. I just can't stop farting all the time. In fact while I've been in here I must have farted at least 20 times." The doctor nods and gives her some pills. "Here take these for two weeks and come see me again when you are done." So she takes the pills and returns two weeks later as instructed. Infuriated, she confronted the doctor. "What kind of medicine is this? I'm still farting just as much? They still don't make any noise, but now they stink terribly!" The doctor nodded, "It's alright, now that we have your sinus' cleared up, we'll work on your hearing next!" Account frozen... ID: 534070 ·

After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. â€Å"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.” â€Å"I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes” replies Watson. â€Å"And what do you deduce from that?” Watson ponders for a minute. â€Å"Well, Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe.
