Last Tuesday, as President Obama got off the Helicopter in front of the White House, he was carrying a baby piglet under each arm.
The squared away Marine guard snaps to attention, Salutes, and says: "Nice pigs, Sir." The President replies: "These are not pigs. These are authentic Arkansas Razorback Hogs. I got one for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and I got one for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi." The squared-away Marine again snaps to attention, salutes, and says: "Excellent trade, sir." |

Things your mother would never say to you ...
How on earth can you see the TV sitting so far back? Yeah, I used to cut class a lot too. Let me smell that shirt - don't worry, it's good for another week. Go ahead and keep that stray dog, honey. I'll be glad to feed and walk him every day. That outfit isn't sexy enough, here, unbutton your blouse. Why don't you hitchhike? It would totally be cheaper. The curfew is just a general time to shoot for. It's not like I'm running a prison around here. Don't clean your room so often. It makes the rest of the house look bad. Can I borrow your new speed metal CDs? Naw, you don't have to call me, I'll eventually figure it out if you're in trouble. |

Here are some more:
" It doesn't matter how often a married man changes his job, he still ends up with the same boss." "They call our language the mother tongue because the father seldom gets to speak." "Saving is the best thing. Especially when your parents have done it for you." |

A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day.
One day, when he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer. As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes full of tears, 'You know what? You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you stayed right here. When my health started failing, you were still by my side... You know what Martha?' 'What dear?' she gently asked, smiling as her heart began to fill with warmth. 'I'm beginning to think you're bad luck... |

A captain is a man who knows very little about a great deal and goes on knowing less and less about more and more until he knows practically nothing about everything.
A chief engineer is a man who knows a great deal about very little and goes on knowing more and more about less and less until he knows practically everything about nothing. (I probably shouldn't post this one, being a chief engineer myself ![]() |
