Day Brightener – The Deaf Bookkeeper

AccountingA Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Guido, has cheated him out of $10 million. His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason he got the job in the first place. It was assumed that Guido would hear nothing and would therefore never have to testify in court.

 When the Godfather goes to confront Guido about the missing $10 million, he takes along his lawyer, who knows sign language. The Godfather tells the lawyer, “Ask him where the money is.”

 The lawyer, using sign language, asks Guido, “Where’s the money?” Guido signs back, “I don’t know what you are talking about.” The lawyer tells the Godfather,  “He says he doesn’t know what you are talking about.”

The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Guido’s head and says, “Ask him again or I’ll kill him!”   The lawyer signs to Guido, “He’ll kill you if you don’t tell him.” Guido trembles and signs back, “OK! You win! The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed at my cousin Bruno’s house.” 

 The Godfather asks the lawyer, “What did he say?”  The lawyer replies, “He says you don’t have the balls to pull the trigger.”

Day Brightener – The Wet Floor

Police OfficerTwo police officers responding to a domestic disturbance with shots fired arrive on scene. After discovering the wife had shot her husband for walking across her freshly mopped floor, they call their sergeant on his cell phone.

“Hello Sarge.”

“Yes.

“It looks like we have a homicide here. 

“What happened?”

“A woman has shot her husband for walking on the floor she had just mopped.”

“Have you placed her under arrest?

“No sir. The floor is still wet. 

Day Brightener – Service Defined

serviceHope this helps you as much as it did me. I always try to help out my friends. I became confused when I heard the word “Service” used with these agencies:

  • Internal Revenue ‘Service’
  • U.S. Postal ‘Service’
  •  Cable TV ‘Service’
  •  Civil ‘Service’
  • State, City, County & Public ‘Service’
  •  Customer ‘Service’

This is not what I thought ‘Service’ meant. But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to ‘Service’ a few cows. BAM!!! It all came into focus. Now I understand what all those agencies are doing.

I hope that you are now just as enlightened as I am.

Baby’s First Doctor Visit – This made me laugh out loud. I hope it will give you a smile!

A woman and a baby were in the doctor’s examining room, waiting for the doctor to come in for the baby’s first exam. The doctor arrived, and examined the baby, checked his weight, and being a little concerned, asked if the baby was breast-fed or bottle-fed. ‘Breast-fed,’ she replied… ‘Well, strip down to your waist,’ the doctor ordered. She did. He pinched her nipples, pressed, kneaded, and rubbed both breasts for a while in a very professional and detailed examination.

Day Brightener – It’s In The Translation

TranslateWhen Spanish singer Julio Iglesias was on UK television with British TV host Anne Diamond, he used the word “manana”. (Pronounced “man-yana”).

Diamond asked him to explain what it meant.

He said that the term means: “Maybe the job will be done tomorrow; maybe the next day; maybe the day after that; or perhaps next week; next month; next year, who really cares?”

The host turned to her other guest, Albert Yatapingu from the Gumbaingeri aboriginal tribe and asked him if there was an equivalent term in his native language.

He replied: “In Australia we don’t have a word to describe that degree of urgency.”

Day Brightener – Ole And The Minnesota Department Of Transportation

HighwayJoe, a supervisor in Minnesota, hired Ole to paint the yellow line down the middle of route 32 heading up toward Bemidji.  He was skeptical about hiring Ole since he didn’t have any painting background.  But Ole appeared enthusiastic and told Al that he really needed the job.  At least his wife Lena told him so.

He explained to Ole that his work day shift would be to complete 2 miles of center-line on the road.  He was set up with brushes and paint and Joe got him started.  After the first day, the supervisor was pleased to find that he’d painted 4 miles of road in his 8 hour shift, instead of the two expected of him.  He told Ole that he did an excellent job and said how pleased he was with his progress.

On the second day, Ole completed painting just the 2 miles of road that was asked of him.  His supervisor was surprised, because on the first day, he had completed twice as much work.  But he didn’t say anything, since 2 miles of road was the amount that the job required anyway.  He decided to just accept it, and to look forward to the next day when he was sure that Ole would pick up the pace again.

On day 3, the supervisor was disappointed to learn that in his 8 hour shift, Ole completed painting only 1 mile of road.

Ole was called to the supervisor’s office and was asked what was the problem.  “On your first day, you completed 4 miles of road, on your second day, 2 miles of road, and now on day 3, you were only able to complete 1 mile of road.  What’s the problem, Ole?”

 “Vell,” Ole replied, “I’ll tell you vut is da problem, but I tought a smart man like you vould figger it out fer yourself.  Every day I’m getting farder and farder avay from da paint can.”

Ole was fired, but was able to move to Iowa and now works for the Iowa DOT.

Day Brightener – 12 Rules For Life

rulesSometimes we just need to remember what the 12 Rules of Life really are:

  1. Never give yourself a haircut after three margaritas.
  1. You need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn’t move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn’t, use the tape.
  1. The five most essential words for a healthy, vital relationship are “I apologize” and “you are right.”
  1. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
  1. Never pass up an opportunity to pee.
  1. If he/she says that you are too good for him/her – believe them.
  1. Learn to pick your battles; ask yourself, “Will this matter one year from now? How about one month? One week? One day?”
  1. When you make a mistake, make amends immediately. It’s easier to eat crow while it’s still warm.
  1. If you woke up breathing, congratulations! You have another chance!
  1. Living well really is the best revenge. Being miserable because of a bad or former relationship just might mean that the other person was right about you.
  1. Work is good, but it’s not that important. Money is nice, but you can’t take it with you. Statistics show most people don’t live to spend all they saved; some die even before they retire. Anything we have isn’t really ours; it’s on loan to us while we’re here …even our kids.
  1. And finally…Be really good to your family and/or friends. You never know when you are going to need them to empty your bedpan.
