Well...the blue light has gone dark!  K-Mart filed for bankruptcy
protection yesterday in what is rumoured to be the largest bank-
ruptcy in history!  I guess giving things away dirt-cheap ain't good
business practice! This leaves two major discount retailers in the
business, Target and that other one owned by Sam Walton...I can
never remember the name...but they do have a few stores here and
there!  Hope someone jumps in to fill the void left by the blue light
gang!

An old rabbi is talking with one of his friends and says with
a warm smile, "I gladdened seven hearts today."
"Seven hearts?" asks the friend. "How did you do that?"

The rabbi strokes his beard and replies, "I performed three
marriages."

The friend looks at him quizzically. "Seven?" he asks. "I could
understand six, but..."

"Well, what do you think," says the rabbi, "that I do this for free?"

<Folks...this is exactly how this arrived...NEVER changed
ONE word!>

Paul and I were talking one day when Paul says, "I went to see
the doctor the other day for that pain in my back."

"So what happened?" I asked.

"Well, he ran a bunch of tests, gave me some pills and sent me home.
Told me to stay in bed for a week. He also told me to sit down whenever
I had to pee. Can you imagine that? A grown man having to sit to pee?"

"Why would he want you to sit to pee?" I asked

"Well", said Paul, "With my bad back, he doesn't want me picking up
anything too big."

* You pull over to let a fire truck go by, and it stops behind
you.
* You have to go to a repair center every thousand miles to get
the duct tape replaced.
* You accidentally drive into a junkyard, drive out, and get
accused of stealing.
* The Blue Book lists your car under "Health Risk."
* The only thing holding your bumper on is the "Dukakis/Bentsen '88"
sticker.
* You return to your car and find someone broke in and left a
hundred dollars and a new stereo.
* Evel Kneivel refuses a free lift.
* The valet puts on a crash helmet and full-body armor before

The race-car driver picked up a girl after a race, went
home with her and took her to bed.

He fell asleep only to be awakened suddenly when she
smacked him in the face.

"What's the matter?!? Didn't I satisfy you when we
screwed?" he asked.

"It was after you fell asleep that got you into trouble,"
said the angry woman. "In your sleep, you felt my tits and
mumbled, 'What perfect headlights.' Then you felt my thighs
and murmured, 'what a smooth finish.'"

"What's wrong with that?" asked the driver.

"Nothing, but then you felt my pussy and yelled, 'Who the
hell left the garage door open?'"

The Wednesday-night church service coincided
with the last day of hunting season.

Or pastor asked who had bagged a deer.

No one raised a hand.

Puzzled, the pastor said, "I don't get it.
Last Sunday many of you said you were missing
because of hunting season. I had the whole
congregation pray for your deer."

One hunter groaned, "Well, it worked.
They're all safe."

work in the back flipping the burgers and stuff but I told him that I wanted
to be at the front with all of the very pretty girls who smiled reel nice
and one of them even said hi to me wich was cool and she had reel big
things. I got reel mad when I was working at the back and I could not see
any girls from there so I quitted in a puff. That boss was meen. So instead
of flipping burgers I flipped him my finger ha ha. Than I got a job at The
Donut Hole and that lasted almost a hole day. I did reel good at this job
and I worked there almost a hole shift and the boss only yelled at me one
time wich was cool. Than the boss got really mad at me and said that I was
eating half of the god dam donuts wich I was not. I only took a little bite
out of one or two of the donuts when I got reel hungry and could not wait
for my brake. I think lots of seeing a police officer about this becauze I

garbage cans. Car door slams, some cussing, then the
garage door opens, slams. Suddenly more crashing and
clattering and cussing, then James comes into the house with
his golf clubs, scowling and cussing.

"What's the matter, Dear? Did you have a bad day on the

"Ya, what a rotten day! What a rotten round of golf! Why I
only hit two good balls all day, and I wouldn't have hit them if
I hadn't stepped on the rake in the garage!"

As he was drilling a batch of recruits, the sergeant saw that one of
them was marching out of step.

Going to the man as they marched, he said sarcastically:
"Do you know they are all out of step except you?"

"What?" asked the recruit innocently.

"I said -- they are all out of step except you!" thundered the sergeant.

"Well, Sarge, you're in charge -- you tell them!"

Little Johnny sat playing in the garden. When his mother
came out to collect him, she saw that he was slowly
eating a worm.

She turned pale. "No, Johnny! Stop! That's horrible!
You can't eat worms!"

Trying to convince him further she noted, "Now the mother
worm is looking all over for her nice baby worm."

"No, she isn't," said Johnny.

"How do you know she's not?" asked the mother.

Little Johnny put his hand on his stomach and said,
"Because I ate her first!!"

An elderly couple sat through a porno movie twice. They didn't get up to
leave until the theater was ready to close for the night. "You folks
must've enjoyed the show," the usher said.

"Disgusting," said the old lady. "It was revolting," her husband added.

"Then why did you sit through it twice?" the usher asks.

replied. "We couldn't find my panties, and his teeth were in them!"

Who's Going to Hell This Week?
by Helen A. Handbasket

January 21, 2002

What, another week has gone by? My, how time flies when you're engrossed in self-flagellation. Good help is so hard to find these days.
- Helen -

10. Despite a lucrative catering offer from publishers of "Chicken Soup for the Terrorist Soul," U.S. prisoners at Guantanamo Bay were fed bagels and cream cheese for brunch.

9.  Enron employees were shredding documents at the company's Houston offices for a tickertape parade, a former executive said yesterday, who refused to divulge who the parade was for. Hint: He's a presidential candidate.

8. O.J. says the "real killers" were dining at Windows of the World on 9/11.

7. Yasser Arafat said Monday he is willing to die a martyr to see the creation of a Palestinian state. Where is he getting these good ideas? Everyone who wants to see Yasser Arafat die a martyr to see the creation of a Palestinian state, raise your hand.

6. Why did the U.S. Army sterilize those missing anthrax spores? What else explains K-Mart going bankrupt?

5. U2 released an album you can only get at Target Stores on the same day Paula Poundstone went public with the news she's not a child molester. Coincidence? I don't think so.

4. Martin Luther King, now reborn as a member of 'N Sync, was not impressed by the way he was hailed by George Bush in an event at the White House last week. "I sure didn't vote for him," King said.

3. Peggy Lee is finally discovering that's not all there is in her jungle tent with malaria on the 4th level of hell. Nobody sings a song called "Fever" till they're 81 without getting the attention of a certain prince of darkness.

2. "My Sweet Lord." is at the top of the charts again. "I always liked that song," said Adolph Hitler playing pinochle with George Harrison at the 7th level of hell. "I don't even care that he stole that chord change," Hitler chuckled.

And the number one person going to hell this week?

1. What did Patty Hearst say when she met Monica Lewinsky? "I love your work."

Personal to Andre: You slimy bastard. From now on, I drive.

Personal to George Clooney: What are you doing tonight, sweety? Come over and help me wash off.

ARITHMETIC FROM HELL

45,000 Palestinian residents of the West Bank under general curfew plus $4.5 billion pledged by international donors to rebuild Afghanistan times everyone who can pronounce Mount Nyiragongo equals Amazon.com's first-ever net profit of $5 million times $35.3 million made by "Black Hawk Down" over Martin Luther King's three-day holiday weekend minus every grain of integrity in the White House..


WHAT?

Rush Limbaugh can hear again.

PROPOSAL FROM HELL

We've Already Lost the War on Terrorism
Let's Go Home
by Satan

He's killed more of us than we killed of him and he's gotten away. He's won. Let's bring the boys home. They can do better guarding the country over here. It's time to leave al Kaeda to the operatives in the spy network, not the fighting soldier. We're just scaring people. Not that that's a bad thing. But as an American, I feel it's their duty to be over here scaring Americans.

QUIZ FROM HELL

Last week's quiz from hell was...

a) too hard
b) too soft
c) just right

QUOTES FROM HELL

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.  Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that....The chain reaction of evil- hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars- must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation."
- Martin Luther King -

"I was thinking after Timothy McVeigh, after the Oklahoma City bomb, I was thinking: No, no Tim, the IRS building, in the middle of the night, nobody there - that would have been the right move."
- P.J. O'Rourke -

"Prosperity itself is on the ballot this November."
- Al Gore -

"There's too many religions. Somebody's going to hell."
- Redd Foxx -
