The Bar

Myself and my mate were going through town today, we were behind this cage who clearly didnt give a rats arse about any other driver on the road, he choped and changed lanes at will, pulling straight out in-front of everyone without looking anywhere, Now-- my mate is hot tempered at the best of times and i knew this would drive him bonkers, so after following this fella for a bit and watching his anticks on the road, we were coming up to a junction, suddenly, my mate flew past me, stuck his left boot out good and high and lamped the mirror straight off this fellas car, he then stoped beside the car to see the drivers window coming down and to receive a m…

Tonto and the Loan-Ranger are on horse-back, crossing the outback plains, As they are going along they can see nothing for miles only a few trees, Then out of the blue, Tonto stops, So then does the Loan-Ranger, "Whats up", says the Loan-Ranger, Tonto just says "sushhhhhh, be quiet", A few minuets go by, then suddenly Tonto jumps down from his horse, drops to his hands and knees, puts his ear down to the ground and starts to listen, "Buffalo Cum", he says, The Loan-Ranger looks arround but cant see any buffalo anywhere, "how the hell do you know that" he says, Tonto rises from his knees, puts his hand against his face and says, "Face Sticky".
