Well in just over 24 hours the Winter Olympics open in Salt Lake
City, Utah!  Canada is favoured to win Gold in hockey with another
shot at The Dream Team...now four years ago in Nagano, Japan...
Canada was also favoured with a Dream Team of NHL stars...but
they finished out of the medals as did the USA!  All the hype
behind the Olympic Hockey tournament really took its toll...so this
year I have resigned myself to the fact that Canada is gonna suck
at hockey! Then when they bring home the Gold...I can be really
happy!  ;)

Today also marks the first test of my new Purehumour list on my

Mrs. Jones went to see her doctor. When he inquired about her
complaint she replied that she suffered from a discharge.

He instructed her to get undressed and lie down on the examining table.

She did so.... The doctor put on rubber gloves and began to massage her
"private parts." After a couple of minutes he asked, "How does that
feel?"

"Wonderful," she replied, "but the discharge is from my ear..."

A telephone repair man joined the Army. As part of his basic
training, he went out on the rifle range. He fired 99 shots
at the target, and missed the target with every shot! His
Drill Instructor tried to find out why.

"What's the matter with you?" shouted the DI. "Why can't you
hit the target? What were you in civilian life?"

"I was a telephone repair man," replied the new recruit, "and
I don't know why I can't hit the target. Let me see..."

The man checked his rifle, checked his rifle again, and checked
his rifle a third time. He then put his finger in front of the
muzzle, pulled the trigger, and blew the end of his finger off!

"Well," the phone man said, writhing in pain, "the bullets are
leaving this end here fine. The trouble must be on the other
end!"

Obviously very unstable on her feet, she shakily
hobbles the few feet across the store to the counter.

Finally arriving at the counter and grabbing it for support,
Wendy asks the sales clerk: "Ddddooo youuuu hhhave dildosss?"

The clerk, politely trying not to burst out laughing, replies:
"Yes we do have dildos. Actually we carry many models."

Wendy then asks: Dddddoooo yyyouuuu hhhave aaa pppinkk one,

-------------------------DEAR AGGIE--------------------------------

Dear Aggie:
Well thank you Aggie for your response to my inquiry
about whether to join the military first or go to college. I suppose I
should explain my situation a little better though. I wish to be a pilot.
I already have my private license but wish to expand my horizons. I
suppose what I was really trying to get at with my previous question was
whether I should go to college first to get my commercial license just in
case when I am finished I have no desire to join the Air Force. I do know
that the military will pay for my college but I am not quite sure if I
will have to be obliged to stay in the military thereafter. And a slight
correction should be made on my part. It is assumed I am male, while I am
indeed 100% woman.

Dear slurpee...er, Icee...

Hmm. What a revolting development, a nice person to whom I feel obliged to write
back nicely to. *sigh* OK...The advice still holds more or less true, Male or
Female. So, you have your privates. License, that is. So do I, I rent a little
Beech Sundowner 4 seater, 180 hp, single engine. Thought Aggie was
the regular little housewife, did you?

Anyway, talk to your recruiter about specific service length. Or, get a grant to
go to Embry-Riddle or some such. Think thru your options, and best of luck to
you.

A blind man was describing his favorite sport, parachuting.
When asked how this was accomplished, he said that things
were all done for him: "I am placed in the door and told
when to jump. My hand is placed on my release ring for me,
and out I go."

"But how do you know when you are going to land?" he was
asked.

"I have a very keen sense of smell and I can smell the trees
and grass when I am 300 feet from the ground" he answered.

"But how do you know when to lift your legs for the final
arrival on the ground?" he was again asked.

The man quickly answered. "Oh, the dog's leash goes
slack..."

--------------ON THE ROAD WITH AN IDIOT---------------

The officer pulled on his Barney Fife hat and slammed the door on his
cruiser. He looked more like Barney than Barney Fife. Even his face was
purple.

"Are you in a hurry sir?" he asked after I put my window down.

Let's see, I'm doing sixty in a 35 zone, I ran a stop sign, and I passed a
boob in a truck, which by all rights should have been pulled over as a
safety hazard. I guess I must be in hurry.

"Are you trying to be funny," he asked.

Why? Are you having fun?

He didn't even offer me a warningwe just went straight to the ticket. I
guess since I was in a hurry, that was a good thing.

I encouraged the children to come up with a good logo
as well as a colorful creation.

One innocent little girl was so enthused about her
masterpiece she turned in to me. It had a picture of a

A couple have been thrown out of a supermarket for
having sex in a toilet.

Security guards were alerted after customers
complained about the noise.

Safeway says a guard approached the couple and told
them only one person is allowed in cubicles at a
time.

The incident happened at the Safeway BP petrol station
store in Basildon, Essex, reports The Sun.

An unnamed customer told the newspaper: "They clearly
didn't care if anyone heard them because they were
making a monumental racket.

"I wasn't the first to notice. When I told staff, they
had already alerted security.

"The couple were escorted out. They looked very
disheveled, but had smirks on their faces."

A spokesman for Safeway said: "Security pointed out that
only one person was allowed in a cubicle at a time."

The psychiatrist was interviewing a first-time patient. "You say you're
here," he inquired, "because your family is worried about your taste in
socks?"

"That's correct," muttered the patient. "I like wool socks."

"But that's perfectly normal," replied the doctor. "Many people prefer
wool socks to those made from cotton or acrylic. In fact, I myself like
wool socks."

"You DO?" exclaimed the man. "With oil and vinegar or just a squeeze of
lemon?"

Although he always ordered just ham and eggs everyday, one
customer at the diner always studied the menu carefully each
day before ordering.

One day, his regular waitress decided to see if he could be
made to order anything else. Before giving him the menu she
marked out the ham and eggs entry.

Once the customer had looked over the menu for a few
minutes, the waitress approached him and asked, "Sir, did you
notice that I scratched something you like?"

Without looking up from the menu, he quickly replied, "Well,
then go wash your hands and bring me some ham and eggs."

Joseph, a very proper man started going into the neighbour
hood drug store every week and buying 2 dozen boxes of
condoms. Week after week, he would come in with the same
order.

One day, the druggist felt he had to say something to Joseph.
"Wow! You must have the stamina of a bull. Talk about
getting lucky! How on earth do you use that many condoms
a week?"

Joseph looked at him in disgust and said, "I beg your pardon,
but I find the whole idea of sex repulsive!"

So, the druggist asked, "Then what do you do with all those
condoms?"

Joseph answered, "I feed them to my poodle. This way when
she goes to the bathroom, she'll shit in little plastic baggies."

WINDOWS SYSTEM FAILS TO CRASH IN 24-HOUR PERIOD
By Paul Daly

In an alarming development, staff at a leading American technology firm have revealed that, on Monday last week, their Windows 98 Operating System failed to crash at any stage.

A spokesman described the event as "remarkable and unprecedented." Indeed, it nearly ended in tragedy, as he went on to explain: "we simply hadn't budgeted for an entire 24-hour period where our employees were totally productive." One employee was taken to hospital with minor injuries, sustained by attempting to unsuccessfully gnaw through the circuit board, but is expected to make a full recovery.

"I tried everything to make the thing crash," he spoke from his hospital bed, "but it just wouldn't work." He even went to the desperate lengths of "opening several Solitaire windows at once. Things got really nasty."

A spokesman for Microsoft dismissed the occurrence as an "isolated incident. We have launched a full investigation and are satisfied that the problem has been rectified." Microsoft said they were "considering" proposals to make circuit boards more susceptible to human teeth, even packaging them with pesto sauce. This measure would require the "collusion of several hardware manufacturers" but, off the record, they refused to rule it out "once those bastards in the Justice Department get off our backs."

The following day, according to reports, things were back to normal, with staff reporting "several" crashes.

Dr. B.A.D. Pessimist, who has predicted consistently during the last five years that the dot.com boom would eventually come to an end, said that efficient Windows Operating Systems could spell total disaster for many companies. "You have to consider the consequences. Many of these dot.com millionaires are far too busy snorting cocaine and having sex with office equipment to work. The only reason they got away with it for so long was that they could complain that the instability of Windows meant that they couldn't do any work." He also added that there was "more than a hint of a conspiracy about this." When asked to elaborate, the Dr. said that it was "only a soundbite."
