  1. I found an old xs400 on craigslist near me. The guy wants 500 for it, but the bike doesnt run. I want the bike, but it has it's problems and I dont want to just be wasting money on a junk heap if I cant ever get it going. I'm thinking of offering the guy $350 for the bike and seeing what happens. Oh yeah, and cafe racer time! http://houston.craigslist.org/mcy/1582123940.html <link to the ad

    I get on extremely well with the lesbians next door. They asked me what I would like for my birthday. I was stunned when they gave me a Rolex. It was very nice of them, but I think they misunderstood me when I said, "I wanna watch." --- Why is it when your wife becomes pregnant, all her female friends rub her tummy and say congratulations" but none of them rub your dick and say "well done"? --- Honestly some folk will take offence at anything. I met a bloke with no legs this morning while at the bus stop and all I asked was "How are you getting on?" --- Paddy was in the delivery room when the midwife handed him a black baby "Is this you…

    "Hi Mum, How are you"? "Hi Son, where are you? I thought you were with your father at B&Q Hardware ""Yeah we were, but I got arrested, and they've let me make one phone call." What happened ?" "Oh, I punched this African-American woman in the head." "What on earth ~ why did you do that ?????" "Well it wasn't my fault. Dad told me to find a Black & Decker."

    SIGN IN A STORE WINDOW 'WE WOULD RATHER DO BUSINESS WITH 1000 AL QAEDA TERRORISTS THAN WITH ONE SINGLE BRITISH SOLDIER!' This sign was prominently displayed in the window of a business in Glamorgan, South Wales . You are probably outraged at the thought of such an inflammatory statement. However, we are a society which holds Freedom of Speech as perhaps our greatest liberty. After all, it is ONLY A SIGN, you may say. 'What kind of business would dare to post such a sign?' Answer: A FUNERAL PARLOUR. (WHO SAID UNDERTAKERS HAD NO SENSE OF HUMOUR?) YOU GOTTA LOVE IT!!! God Bless The Welsh

    SIPPING VODKA A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak. After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done. The monsignor replied, 'When I am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervous, I take a sip.' So next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice. At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink. He proceeded to talk up a storm. Upon his return to his office after the mass, he found the following note on the door: 1) Sip the vodka, don't gulp. 2) There are 10 commandments, not 12. 3) There are 12 disciples, not 10. …
