cappie Posted October 1, 2004 Author Share Posted October 1, 2004 Father Murphy walked into a pub and said to the first man he met, "Do you want to go to heaven?" The man said, "I do Father." The priest said,"Leave this pub right now!" He then approached a second man. "Do you want to get to heaven?" "Certainly, Father," was the man's reply. "Then leave this den of Satan!" said the priest. Father Murphy then walked up to O'Toole and asked, "Do you want to go to heaven?" O'Toole replied: "No, I don't Father." The priest looked him right in the eye and said, "You mean to tell me that when you die you don't want to go to heaven?" O'Toole smiled, "Oh, when I die. Yes Father. I thought you were getting a group together to go right now." *********************************************************** A man was brought to Mercy Hospital and taken in for coronary surgery. The operation went well and, as the groggy man regained consciousness, he was reassured by a Sister of Mercy, who was waiting by his bed. "Mr. Smith, you're going to be just fine," said the nun, gently patting his hand. "We do need to know, however, how you intend to pay for your stay here. Are you covered by insurance?" "No, I'm not," the man whispered hoarsely. "Can you pay in cash?" persisted the nun. "I'm afraid I cannot, Sister." "Well, do you have any close relatives?" the nun essayed. "Just my sister in New Mexico," he volunteered. "But she's a humble spinster nun." "Oh, I must correct you, Mr. Smith. Nuns are not 'spinsters.' They are married to God." "Wonderful," he replied. "In that case, send the bill to my brother-in-law". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DancesforLove Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 Hey Cappie I thought I'd correct your joke, you've got a butchered form of it. Heres the full length one. Recently, at a theological meeting in Rome, scholars had a heated debate on this subject. One by one, they offered their evidence... THREE PROOFS THAT JESUS WAS MEXICAN: 1. His first name was Jesus. 2. He was bilingual. 3. He was always being harassed by the authorities. But then there were equally good arguments that... JESUS WAS BLACK 1. He called everybody "brother" 2. He liked Gospel. 3. He couldn't get a fair trial. But then there were equally good arguments that... JESUS WAS JEWISH 1. He went into His Father's business. 2. He lived at home until he was 33. 3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin, and his Mother was sure he was God. But then there were equally good arguments that... JESUS WAS ITALIAN 1. He talked with his hands. 2. He had wine with every meal. 3. He used olive oil. But then there were equally good arguments that... JESUS WAS A CALIFORNIAN 1. He never cut his hair. 2. He walked around barefoot. 3. He started a new religion. But then there were equally good arguments that... JESUS WAS IRISH 1. He never got married. 2. He was always telling stories. 3. He loved green pastures. But perhaps the most compelling evidence ... THREE PROOFS THAT JESUS WAS A WOMAN ... 1. He had to feed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was no food. 2. He kept trying to get the message across to a bunch of men who JUST DIDN'T GET IT. 3. Even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was more work for him to do.

DancesforLove Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 These are the nominees for the Chevy Nova Award. This is given out in honor of the GM fiasco in trying to market this car in Central and South America. "No Va" means, of course, in Spanish, "It doesn't go". 1. The Dairy Association's huge success with the campaign "Got Milk?" prompted them to expand advertising to Mexico. It was soon brought to their attention the Spanish translation read "Are you lactating?" 2. Coors put its slogan, "Turn It Loose," into Spanish, where it was read as "Suffer From Diarrhea." 3. Clairol introduced the "Mist Stick," a curling iron, into Germany only to find out that "mist" is slang for manure. Not too many people had use for the "Manure Stick." 4. When Gerber started selling baby food in Africa, they used the same packaging as in the US, with the smiling baby on the label. Later they learned that in Africa, companies routinely put pictures on the labels of what's inside, since many people can't read. 5. An American T-shirt maker in Miami printed shirts for the Spanish market which promoted the Pope's visit. Instead of "I saw the Pope" (el Papa), the shirts read "I Saw the Potato" (la papa). 6. Pepsi's "Come Alive With the Pepsi Generation" translated into "Pepsi Brings Your Ancestors Back From the Grave" in Chinese. 7. The Coca-Cola name in China was first read as "Kekoukela", meaning "Bite the wax tadpole" or "female horse stuffed with wax", depending on the dialect. Coke then researched 40,000 characters to find a phonetic equivalent "kokou kole", translating into "happiness in the mouth." 8. I thought I should leave this one out (not that bad) IM if you'd still like to here it 9. When Parker Pen marketed a ball-point pen in Mexico, its ads were supposed to have read, "It won't leak in your pocket and embarrass you."The company thought that the word "embarazar" (to impregnate) meant to embarrass, so the ad read: "It won't leak in your pocket and make you pregnant!

cappie Posted October 2, 2004 Author Share Posted October 2, 2004 Two curates were talking, one said "How do you get on with the young women in your parish?" The other replied, "I seek safety in numbers. How about you?" The first curate replied, "I take refuge in exodus". ******************************************************** Groceries from the devil There was a Christian lady who lived next door to an atheist. Everyday, when the lady prayed, the atheist guy could hear her. He thought to himself, "She sure is crazy, praying all the time like that. Doesn't she know there isn't a God?" Many times while she was praying, he would go to her house and redicule her. One day, she ran out of groceries. As usual, she was praying to the Lord explaining her situation and thanking Him for what He was gonna do. AS USUAL, the atheist heard her praying and thought to himself. "Hmph . . .I'll fix her." He went to the grocery store, bought a whole bunch of groceries, took them to her house, dropped them off on the front porch,rang the door bell and then hid in the bushes to see what she would do. When she opened the door and saw the groceries, she began to praise the Lord with all her heart, jumping, singing and shoutin' everywhere! The atheist jumped out of the bushes and told her, "You ol' crazy lady, God didn't buy you those groceries, I bought those groceries!" Well, she broke out and started running down the street, shouting and praising the Lord. When the atheist finally caught her, he asked what her problem was . . . She said, "I knew the Lord would provide me with some groceries but I didn't know he made the devil pay for them!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
