December 29 CHEER UP! New yr specialWar and Peace
1) "you soldier,are you happy in the army?" "As happy as can be expected, I suppose, sir." " And what were you before you joined?" " A lot happier!"
2) A soldier serving abroad recieved a "Dear John" letter from his girlfriend breaking off their engagement. She also asked if he could send her photo back. So he collected all the unwanted photos of girls from the entire regiment and sent them to her with a note saying "sorry can't remember which one you were, please keep yours and send back the others!" (this is so funny, my favourite)
3) Walking into an army surplus store, a man asked if they had any camouflage jackets. " Yes we have " came the reply, " but we can't find them"
4) The Swiss have an interesting army- 500 yrs without a war, pretty impressive. Also pretty lucky for them. Ever seen that little Swiss army knife they have to fight with? Not much of a weapon there- corkscrews, bottle openers. " come on buddy, let's go. You get past me, the guy behind me, he's got a spoon! Back off, I've got the toe clippers right here!"
5) They were doing medical examinations for army entry and a man came in with one leg 9 inches shorter than the other. The Medical Officer said " Yes, fine, you're in". "Wait a minute" said the man, " I've got one leg 9 inches shorter than the other." "Don't worry" said the M.O. " where you're going the ground won't be level!"
6) "In my regiment we used to shoot first and ask questions later" said the elderly colonel. " Mind you, we never got many answers!"
7) Representatives of the army, the navy and the air force were called upon to speak at a dinner. Proud of their traditions, the army and the navy kept referring to the air force as the Cinderella of the forces. When it was the turn of the air force representative to speak, he began: I know very little about Cinderella, except that she had 2 ugly sisters!
8) Did you know that the Royal Corps of Signals experimented with crossing a carrier-pigeon with a woodpecker. They wanted to get a bird that would knock on the door before delivering a message!
9) A war correspondent visiting Afghanistan for a second time noted that, since the fall of the Taliban, wives who used to walk ten paces behind their husbands were now walking ten paces in front. The journalist asked one of the men if this was a sign of growing equality. "No", the man replied. "landmines!"
10) Policeman: I'm going to have to lock you up for the night.
Suspect: what charge?
Policeman: There's no charge, it's all part of the service!
11) "Sometimes I think war is God's way of teaching us geography!" (RODRIGUEZ)
12) Military intelligence is a contradiction in terms! ( MARX)
13) War does not determine who is right. War determines who is left! (ANON)
14) A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him! ( WINSTON CHURCHILL)
That's enough...
December 03 Funny foreigners1) In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed- they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, 500 yrs of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!
2) The French will only be united under the threat of danger. Nobody can simply bring together a country that has 265 cheeses!
3) The people who live in Paris are called Parasites!
4) On the 6th day, God turned to angel Gabriel and said, "today I'm going to creat a land called Canada. It will be a land of outstanding natural beauty, snow-capped mountains, beautiful blue lakes, forest of elk and moos, silver river full of salmon. With pure, clear air. I will make the country rich in oil and the people there shall prosper. They will be called Canadians and become known as friendliest people on earth". "Don't u think" asked Gabriel "that you are being over generous to one country?" "wait" said God. "You haven't yet seen the neighbours I'm going to land them with!"
5) I have just 'returned' from Boston. It is the only thing to do if u find yourself up there!
6) In America there are 2 classes of travel- first class and with children!
7) The difference between Los Angeles and yoghurt is that yoghurt has real culture.
8) A Frenchman with a parrot perched on his shoulder walked into a bar. The barman said: Wow thats really lovely. Where did u get him? "In France" the parrot replied. "They've got millions of them over there!"
9) Business on the Costa Brava is so bad this year that some of the hotels are stealing towels from their guests! (TEE HEE! my favourite)
10) I don't know what London's coming to- the higher the buildings the lower the morals!
11) Station announcement: The train now arriving on platforms 10,11,12 and 13 is coming in sideways!
12) A skinflint wanted to take his children for a ride in a plane on the cheap. Shocked to find out that it would cost 100 pounds, haggling with the pilot, who comes up with the suggestion that: "I'll take u up for half an hour and as long as u don't cry out, I woun't charge u a penny, but if u make so much as a sound, I'll charge u double". They agreed to the terms and took off. The pilot tried nosedives, tailspins, barrel rolls and every daredevil trick in the book, but no one made a sound. "U win" said the pilot,"there are no charge, I'm amazed u managd not to scream." Well, I did come close once or twice, admitted the father."especially when u looped the loop and the kids fell out!"
