"Is that the difference between manure and humor?"

Exactly, although they're often easy to confuse (particularly mine). But while you sometimes must explain humor, manure needs no explanation. Thus, one should never be compelled to ask, "Whose humor do I smell?"

And you thought I was a smart feller when, in fact, I'm a fart smeller.

A cannibal passed his friend in the jungle?

More punishment?

"A cannibal passed his friend in the jungle?"

He obviously didn't know squat.





  1. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, but when they lit a fire in the craft it sank-proving once and for all that you
    can't have your kayak and heat it, too.



  2. Two boll weevils grew up in South Carolina. One went to Hollywood and became a famous actor. The other stayed
    behind in the cotton fields and never amounted to much. The second one, naturally, became known as the lesser of
    two weevils.



  3. A three-legged dog walks into a saloon in the Old West. He sidles up to the bar and announces: "I'm looking for the
    man who shot my paw."



  4. This guy goes into a restaurant for a Christmas breakfast while in his home town for the holidays. After looking over
    the menu he says, "I'll just have the eggs Benedict." His order comes a while later and it's served on a big, shiny
    hubcap. He asks the waiter, "What's with the hubcap?" The waiter says, "Well, there's no plate like chrome for the
    hollandaise."



  5. A neutron goes into a bar and asks the bartender, "How much for a beer?" The bartender replies, "For you, no
    charge."



  6. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused his dentist's Novocain during root canal work? He wanted to transcend
    dental medication.



  7. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent
    tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse.
    "But why?" they asked, as they moved off. "Because," he said, "I can't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer."



  8. A doctor made it his regular bit to stop off at a bar for a hazelnut daiquiri on his way home. The bartender knew of his
    habit, and would always have the drink waiting at precisely 5:03 p.m. One afternoon, as the end of he work day
    approached, the bartender was dismayed to find that he was out of hazelnut extract. Thinking quickly, he threw together
    a daiquiri made with hickory nuts and set it on the bar. The doctor came in at his regular time, took one sip of the drink
    and exclaimed, "This isn't a hazelnut daiquiri!" "No, I'm sorry," replied
    the bartender, "it's a hickory daiquiri, doc."



  9. A hungry lion was roaming through the jungle looking for something to eat. He came across two men. One was
    sitting under a tree and reading a book; the other was typing away on his typewriter. The lion quickly pounced on the
    man reading the book and devoured him. Even the king of the jungle knows that readers digest and writers cramp.



  10. There was a man who entered a local paper's pun contest. He sent in ten different puns, in the hope that at least
    one of the puns would win. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.



  11. A guy goes to a psychiatrist. "Doc, I keep having these alternating recurring dreams. First I'm a teepee; then I'm a
    wigwam; then I'm a teepee; then I'm a wigwam. It's driving me crazy. What's wrong with me?" The doctor replies: "It's
    very simple. You're two tents."



  12. A woman has twins, and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to a family in Egypt and is named "Amal."
    The other goes to a family in Spain; they name him "Juan." Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to his mom.
    Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Amal. Her husband
    responds, "But they are twins-if you've seen Juan, you've seen Amal."

....was a SMALL medium at large
++++++++++++++++++++

A young Scottish lad and lass were sitting on a low stone wall, holding
hands, gazing out over the loch.

For several minutes they sat silently, then finally the girl looked at
the boy and said, "A penny for your thoughts, Angus."

"Well, uh, I was thinkin'...perhaps it's aboot time for a wee kiss."

The girl blushed, then leaned over and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Then he blushed.

The two turned once again to gaze out over the loch.

Minutes passed, then the girl spoke again. "Another penny for your
thoughts, Angus."

"Well, uh I was thinkin'...perhaps its noo aboot time for a wee cuddle."

The girl blushed, then leaned over and cuddled him for a few seconds.

Then he blushed.

Then the two turned once again to gaze out over the loch.

After a while, she again said, "Another penny for your thoughts, Angus."

"Well, uh I was thinkin'...perhaps its aboot time you let me pewt ma
hand on yer leg."

The girl blushed, then took his hand and put it on her knee.

Then he blushed.

Then the two turned once again to gaze out over the loch before the
girl spoke again.

"Another penny for your thoughts, Angus."

The young man glanced down with a furled brow. "Well, noo," he said,
"my thoughts are a wee bit more serious this time."

"Really?" said the girl in a whisper, filled with anticipation.

"Aye," said the lad, nodding.

The girl looked away in shyness, began to blush, and bit her lip in
anticipation of the ultimate request.

And he said, "Dae ye nae think it's aboot time ye paid me the first
three pennies?"

Genetic Engineering

There was once a veterinarian who loved to hack gene sequences.

One day he successfully grafted pieces of cantaloup DNA to the DNA of a dog zygote. The engineered zygote soon developed into a little puppy.

The result was far less dramatic than one might expect. The animal was recognizably canine, if tiny and roly poly. Its fur had an overall orange tint.

The vet raised the puppy to adulthood and all was generally fine, though the animal was rather small and rotund.

The veterinarian noticed that his dog was becoming lethargic and increasingly morose. Being concerned with the animal's overall health and mental well-being, the vet tried many things to cure his dog's apparent depression.

After all, he felt guilty that its growing languishment could be the direct result of his genetic experimentation.

He tried altering the animal's diet, its exercise, and its play, but nothing seemed to help.

Finally he took the dog to an animal psychiatrist.

The vet sat in the waiting room while the orange tinted dog was in with the animal counselor.

Finally the door opened, and the veterinarian rose to his feet. The psychiatrist came out with the dog.

"Tell me, Doctor. What's wrong? Is my dog going to be okay?"

"Don't worry, Doctor. He'll be fine. He's just a little melon collie."
