"What are you doing?" the policeman asked.

"What does it look like?" answered the young man. "I'm reading this magazine."

Pointing towards the young lady in the back seat, the officer then asked, "And what is she doing?"

The young man looked over his shoulder and replied, "What does it look like? She's knitting."

"And how old are you?" the officer then asked the young man.

"I'm nineteen," he replied.

"And how old is she?" asked the officer.

The young man looked at his watch and said, "Well, in about twelve minutes she'll be sixteen."

* The police asked Tiger's wife how many times she hit him. "I can't remember," Elin said, "just put me down for a 5."
* Ping has a new set of irons called Elins. They're clubs you can beat Tiger with.
* What does Tiger Woods have in common with a baby seal? They've both been clubbed by a Norwegian. (Of course, Elin is actually Swedish. But poetic license is allowed in jokes.)
* Did you hear Tiger changed his name to Cheetah?
* Tiger's other women aren't misstresses. They're provisionals.
* Did you hear Nike's new motto? Just do me.
* What's the difference between Tiger Woods and Santa Clause? Santa stopped at three ho's.
* Tiger crashed into a fire hydrant and a tree. He couldn't decide between a wood and an iron.
* What's the difference between a car and a golf ball? Tiger can drive a golf ball 400 yards.
* Tiger Woods is so rich that he owns lots of expensive cars. Now he has a hole-in-one.
* Tiger has a new movie coming out. It's called Crouching Tiger, Hidden Hydrant.

Who? The person who altered the stills from Disney's "Cinderella" to match the colour scheme of the photographs?

In 1572, the Arabs invented the condom, using a goat's lower intestine.
In 1873, the British somewhat refined the idea by taking the intestine out of the goat first.





This guy was sitting at home alone when he heard a knock on the
front door. There was a county sheriff’s deputy standing there.
The man asked the deputy if there was a problem. The deputy sheriff
asked if he was married and if he could see a picture of his wife.
The guy says "Sure," and shows him a picture of his wife.
The sheriff says, "I'm sorry sir, but it looks like your wife's
been hit by a truck."
The guy says, "I know, but she has a great personality, and
is a real good cook too."

The Washington Post's Mensa Invitational once again invited readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition.

Here are the winners:

1. Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period of time.

2 Ignoranus : A person who's both stupid and an asshole.

3. Intaxicaton : Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

4. Reintarnation : Coming back to life as a hillbilly.

5. Bozone ( n.): The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer, unfortunately, shows little sign of breaking down in the near future

6. Foreploy : Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.

7. Giraffiti : Vandalism spray-painted very, very high

8. Sarchasm : The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.

9. Inoculatte : To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.

10. Osteopornosis : A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)

11. Karmageddon : It's like, when everybody is sending off all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth explodes and it's like, a serious bummer.

12. Decafalon (n): The grueling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you.

13. Glibido : All talk and no action.

14. Dopeler Effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.

15. Arachnoleptic Fit (n.): The frantic dance performed just after you've accidentally walked through a spider web.

16. Beelzebug (n): Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out.

17. Caterpallor ( n.): The color you turn after finding half a worm in the fruit you're eating.
