			My wife is so ugly... a cannibal took one look at her and ordered salad. My wife says my lovemaking is like a news bulletin. Brief, unexpected and usually a disaster. My wife thinks "freedom of the press" means no-iron clothes. |

			A couple more "wife" jokes and it will be out of my system ... My wife went shopping for a feminine protection product. She decided on a thirty eight revolver. My wife will buy anything marked down. Last year she bought an escalator. |

			Just got this one in an email. ECONOMICS EXPLAINED: SOCIALISM You have two cows. You give one to your neighbour. COMMUNISM You have two cows. The State takes both and gives you some milk.. FASCISM You have two cows. The State takes both and sells you some milk. NAZISM You have two cows. The State takes both and shoots you. BUREAUCRACY You have two cows. The State takes both, shoots one, milks the other, and then throws the milk away. CAPITALISM You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income. SURREALISM You have two giraffes. AN AMERICAN CORPORATION You have two cows. You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows. Later, you hire a consultant to analyse why your cow has dropped dead. A FRENCH CORPORATION You have two cows.. You go on strike, organise a riot, and block the roads because you want three cows. A JAPANESE CORPORATION You have two cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow but produce twenty times the milk. You then create a clever cow cartoon image called 'Cowkimon' and market it worldwide. A GERMAN CORPORATION You have two cows. You re-engineer them so they live for 100 years, eat once a month, and milk themselves. AN ITALIAN CORPORATION You have two cows, but you don't know where they are. You decide to have lunch. A RUSSIAN CORPORATION You have two cows. You count them and learn you have five cows. You count them again and learn you have 42 cows. You count them again and learn you have two cows. You stop counting cows and open another bottle of vodka. A SWISS CORPORATION You have 5,000 cows. None of them belong to you, but you get to charge the owners for storing them. A CHINESE CORPORATION You have two cows. You have 300 people milking them. You claim that you have full employment, and high bovine productivity. You arrest the newsman who reported the real situation, and run him Over with a tank in a large open square area. AN INDIAN CORPORATION You have two cows. You worship them. A BRITISH CORPORATION You have two cows. Both are mad. AN IRAQI CORPORATION Everyone thinks you have lots of cows. You tell them that you have none. No-one believes you, so they bomb the hell out of you and invade your country. You still have no cows, but at least now you are part of a Democracy. A NEW ZEALAND CORPORATION You have two cows. The one on the left looks very attractive. AN AUSTRALIAN CORPORATION You have two cows. Business seems pretty good. You close the office and go for a few beers to celebrate. |

			MODERN CAPITALISM You have two cows, milk them and sell your milk overseas. You open a loan with a Bank to import milk from Vietnam at a higher price, giving your grassland as a collateral. If, by the end of the year, you have less than 200 cows, you're not able to pay your debt, you lose yoru land to the Bank, and you file for bankruptcy. And national GDP drops, so the money for your welfare is given to the Bank by the Government. |

			Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, but she did it backwards in high heels.

			Last night I took the wife out and we passed a really posh restaurant.  What do you think of this place, I said? She replied the food smells fantastic. I thought why not give her a treat. So I turned round and walked past it again |

			Very good! I cannot sneak one past you. Here are a couple of my favorites: Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit. A woman will doubt everything you say except it be compliments to herself. We work to become, not to acquire. |

			Husband picks up a case of beer and puts it in cart.  Wife barks, "What do you think you're doing?" The husband replies, "They're on sale, only $10 for 24 cans." The wife says, "Put them back, we can't afford them." A few aisles further the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream & puts it in the basket. "What do you think you're doing?" asks the husband. The wife says, "It's my face cream. It makes me look beautiful." Her husband fires back, "So do 24 cans of beer & they're half the price! |
