One night at Cheers (TV Sitcom), Cliff Clavin said to his buddy, Norm Peterson: “Well, ya see, Norm, it’s like this…A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members! ; In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That’s why you always feel smarter after a few beers.”

One afternoon the vicar came to call on her and she showed him into her quaint sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea… As he sat facing her old​ ​Hammond organ, the young minister noticed a cut glass bowl sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled with water, and in the water floated, of all things, a condom!

When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat. The Pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him and he could no longer resist. ‘Miss Beatrice’, he said, ‘I wonder if you could tell me about this? ‘Pointing to the bowl.

‘Oh, yes,’ she replied, ‘isn’t it wonderful? I was walking through the park a few months ago and I found this little package on the ground. The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease. Do you know I haven’t had a cold or the flu all winter.’

Day Brightener – Justice

Bench 2Jim and Bob, two friends, met in the park every day to feed the pigeons, watch the squirrels and discuss world problems.

One day Jim didn’t show up. Bob didn’t think much about it and figured maybe he had a cold or something.. But after Jim hadn’t shown up for a week or so, Bob really got worried. However, since the only time they ever got together was at the park, Bob didn’t know where Jim lived, so he was unable to find out what had happened to him.

A month had passed, and Bob figured he had seen the last of Jim, but one day Bob approached the park and– lo and behold!–there sat Jim! Bob was very excited and happy to see him and told him so.

Then he said, ‘For crying out loud Jim, what in the world happened to you?’

Jim replied, ‘I have been in jail.’

‘Jail!’ cried Bob. What in the world for?

‘Well,’ Jim said, ‘you know Sue, that cute little blonde waitress at the coffee shop where I sometimes go?

‘Yeah,’ said Bob, ‘I remember her….. What about her?

‘Well, the little gold-digging witch figured I was rich and she filed rape charges against me; and, at 89 years old, I was so proud that when I got into court, I pleaded ‘guilty’.
