		<description><![CDATA[Just a wee collection of jokes for your perusal, with a Scottish tilt. If you can't quite work out some of these jokes, it might be the Scottish pronouciation you aren't getting. Anyroads, hope you enjoy.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There was once a Scotsman who was arrested for indecent exposure. Continually wiping the perspiration from ones brow with their kilt will do that!</p>
<p><strong>During a Partick Thistle V Clyde game (the real Glasgow derby!) one of the players, who was standing in the middle of a defensive wall at a free-kick, took a right belter of a hit right into his crotch; the pain knocked him out. The Partick Thistle defender awoke in the hospital the next morning and was still in a lot of pain. He asked the doctor how bad it was, and if he would be able to play again. The doctor said that the player would be able to play again but only if they had a woman&#8217;s team!</strong></p>
<p>A tourist was staying in a Glasgow hotel and phoned the reception at 3am one night just to tell them &#8220;I&#8217;ve gotta leak in the sink&#8221;. The receptionist told them just to go ahead with it!</p>
<p><strong>A very attractive policewoman was sitting in the police car when she saw another car swerving all over the road. She quickly signalled for the car to pull over to the side of the road. The man driving the other car pulled over and proceeded to step out the vehicle. He was clearly very drunk, he fell down to the ground but quickly picked himself up. &#8220;You&#8217;re staggering&#8221; said the policewoman. The man replied: &#8220;Aye, cheers, you&#8217;re no so bad yersel!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>One Scotsman went to have his suit dry-cleaned. The shop assistant told the man that it would cost him &pound;20 to have it cleaned. The Scotsman thought that was far too expensive so he went to the charity shop next door and donated the suit. A few days later, the man returned to the charity shop to find his suit hadn&#8217;t been sold yet. It had been cleaned though and he bought it for &pound;5.</p>
<p><strong>A wee old woman from Glasgow was shaking the hand of the minister after the weekly Sunday service. She said: &#8220;Ah&#8217;ve gotta tell ye, minister. Every sermon ye preach is better than the next one!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>The various stages of Scottish Woman:</p>
<p>At 18, you give her whisky, tell her a story and take her to bed.<br />At 28, you don&#8217;t need to give her whisky or tell her a story just to take her to bed.<br />At 38, she tells you a story and buys you a whisky and then takes you to bed.<br />At 48, you drink too much whisky and then tell her a story to avoid going to bed.<br />At 58, you take the whisky and stay in bed just to avoid her story.<br />At 68, if you take her to bed that would be a story!<br />At 78, what bed? what story? but the whisky still tastes good.</p>
<p><strong>A Glaswegian woman went to the dentists and made herself comfortable in the chair.<br />&#8220;Comfy?&#8221; asked the dentist.<br />&#8220;Govan&#8221; replied the woman.</strong></p>
<p>Q: What do you call a Scottish dwarf who falls into a cement mixer?<br />A: A wee hard man!<br />Q: If there are two coos in a field in Scotland, which one is on holiday?<br />A: The one with the wee calf!<br />Q: What did Dracula get when he came to Scotland?<br />A: A bat in the mouth!<br />Q: What do you call a Scotsman who takes a small size shoe?<br />A: Wee Shooey!<br />Q: What do you call a Scotsman who takes a small size shoe and doesn&#8217;t have a dog?<br />A: Wee Shooey Douglas!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Just a bit of humor to brighten up your day. Please don't be offended by anything I say. Hope you enjoy reading this random posting!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One day a husband returned home from a hard days work to find his wife liberally applying some kind of cream to her breasts, honestly, what follows is an actual transcript of the conversation that took place;</p>
<ul>
<li>Husband: What&#8217;s that for?</li>
<li>Wife: It&#8217;s a new cream that helps to enlarge the breasts.</li>
<li>Husband: And how much did that cost you then?</li>
<li>Wife: &pound;250</li>
<li>Husband: That&#8217;s ridiculous, why not just rub some toilet paper on them?</li>
<li>Wife: Will it work?</li>
<li>Husband: Well it did for your backside!</li>
</ul>
<p>After that conversation, there is a good chance they won&#8217;t be husband and wife for too much longer. Let that be a lesson to all, that sometimes being too truthful isn&#8217;t the best way to go.</p>
<p><strong>I swear what follows is true; the following words did fall from a friends mouth. It was the day after the night before and my friend had, how shall we say, got lucky! His night&#8217;s conquest could best be described as being on the &lsquo;larger&#8217; size. When asked how they got on, my friend replied: &#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t say she was a big girl but her middle name was Orca and Greenpeace are looking for her to tow her back out to sea.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Now that was just mean. On the subject of being mean, sometimes a mean comment is disguised by what is, in essence, something apparently quite nice. Reminds me of the time when a friend, when asked what the best feature of his new girlfriend was, said: &#8220;Well she&#8217;s got interesting eyes&#8221;. When pressed to elaborate, he was slightly embarrassed to admit that his latest squeeze was &lsquo;cross-eyed&#8217;. How does that make her eyes interesting? Well they were that interesting that the left one kept looking at the right one!</p>
<p><strong>I wouldn&#8217;t say the girls in my neck of the woods are rough but the definition of a classy girl around here, is one that has all her tattoos spelt correctly.</strong></p>
<p>On that note, there is something quite funny about people who get a tattoo done and end up with the wrong spelling of whatever it is meant to say. Not only will they have to live the rest of their lives with a non-removable tattoo, they will also have to live with the shame of forever being known as a &#8216;muppet&#8217; who couldn&#8217;t spell. (Of course they could always blame the tattoo artist.) Really, would it be so hard, if you were insistent on a word tattoo, to look up the correct spelling in a dictionary?</p>
<p>Interestingly, woman are more likely to&nbsp;go to a dermatologist to get their tattoo removed than their male counterparts. Whether this is because of misspelt tattoos is open to debate. It is more likely that they realise, with age, tattoos tend to lose a certain amount of tautness, shall we say.</p>
<p>From tattoos to driving now;&nbsp;there is a general misconception that female drivers are really bad and should be banned from the roads because their driving is so bad. It is an awful stereotype to consider as there is no prove that female drivers are worse than male drivers.</p>
<p>True story. A woman was returning home from work in her car and on her return, her family noticed that the car had a flat tyre. The woman admitted that she had noticed it when she left her work but thought it was safe to drive because it the tyre was only flat at the bottom.</p>
<p><strong>Ironically, this was the same woman who asked her husband to buy a longer dipstick for the car as the one they had wasn&#8217;t long enough to reach the oil.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<ol>
<li>You&#8217;re a sinner. But we&#8217;ve been saying that for years.</li>
<li>Christmas and Easter visitors welcomed year round</li>
<li>Hell: A heartbeat away</li>
<li>You&#8217;re a real LOSER if you vandalize this sign. </li>
<li>Ever think of getting your life right with God, sinner?</li>
<li>You&#8217;re a sinner (don&#8217;t take that the wrong way).</li>
<li>If I sinned as much as you, I&#8217;d be beating down these doors weekly to repent.</li>
<li>Elm Road Baptist: pretty catchy for a church name, ain&#8217;t it?</li>
<li>The pastor here thinks that you&#8217;re a sinner. Challenge him on it.</li>
<li>Ever seen a U-Haul behind a hearse?</li>
<li>Just think of Hell as endless fire and sulfur.</li>
<li>Nietsche said that God was dead. And where is Nietsche now?</li>
<li>Go watch more TV. You haven&#8217;t met your 4.8 hours daily quotient yet.</li>
<li>Gluttony&#8217;s a sin too, Tubbo.</li>
<li>And no, the walls won&#8217;t cave in if you visit us.</li>
<li>Hell: the smell of sulfur in the morning, every morning.</li>
<li>Did you pray with your children BEFORE sending them to school?</li>
<li>Turn off the TV and talk to your kid.</li>
<li>Turn the phone off. You&#8217;re driving.</li>
<li>Love your children? Pitch the TV.</li>
<li>We&#8217;ll pray for you. You need the prayer and we need the practice.</li>
<li>Before going to hell, consult with us first.</li>
<li>Let&#8217;s not mince words, okay? Repent and Believe.</li>
<li>Jesus will return one day very very soo&#8230;</li>
<li>Heaven or Hell? What a no-brainer.</li>
<li>See Eve. See Eve fall. See Adam. See Adam fall. An early pattern here?</li>
<li>Lust. Greed. Gluttony. All sins.</li>
<li>I&#8217;m a sinner. You&#8217;re a sinner. Can we talk?</li>
<li>Is God on your To Do list?</li>
<li>Have you repented of your sins&#8230;lately?</li>
<li>Gentlemen: Love your neighbor, but don&#8217;t covet her.</li>
<li>Abstinence. Works every time it&#8217;s tried.</li>
<li>What are you searching for?</li>
<li>Pray. Get up. Repeat tomorrow.</li>
<li>Read the Good Book lately?</li>
<li>You&rsquo;ve got questions. We&rsquo;ve got answers.</li>
<li>Handbaskets collected here.</li>
<li>Hatchets buried here.</li>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s Friday night and your girlfriend wants to go out. But going out usually costs money, and you’ve already spent most of your paycheck on antiquarian books and malt liquor. That’s why I’ve come up with these dynamite date ideas that won’t blow your purse to smithereens.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Go to Arby&rsquo;s</h3>
<p>It&rsquo;s cheap, it&rsquo;s relatively well-lit, and you won&rsquo;t have any trouble getting a table. Sure, the food will send you and your date both running clench-assed to the toilet, and the atmosphere will obliterate your self-esteem, and some of the other clientele may express inappropriate interest in your date&mdash;that is, they may try to <i>rape </i>her&mdash;but still, you can&rsquo;t argue with value.</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Take Her Storm Chasing</h3>
<p>This exciting-sounding date won&rsquo;t cost you a penny. And of course, it won&rsquo;t be exciting. But when your girlfriend hears that you want to take her storm chasing, she&rsquo;ll become giddy with fearful anticipation. &ldquo;Do you think we might get maimed by the storm? Maybe even killed?&rdquo; she&rsquo;ll ask you, clearly excited by the possibility of facing mortal danger. &ldquo;Yes,&rdquo; tell her, &ldquo;definitely maimed. Probably killed. My last girlfriend, Marla, well, you know how I didn&rsquo;t tell you why we broke up?&rdquo; &ldquo;Oh my God,&rdquo; she&rsquo;ll say. &ldquo;A storm got her, didn&rsquo;t it.&rdquo; And you&rsquo;ll just nod, as if it&rsquo;s too painful to acknowledge the awful truth in words. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>After a few hours of driving around aimlessly under a clear sky, though, your date may begin to sense something&rsquo;s up. &ldquo;Are you <i>sure </i>they said we were supposed to get a tornado?&rdquo; she&rsquo;ll ask accusingly. &ldquo;Because it looks pretty damn clear out to me.&rdquo; Luckily, you can respond, &ldquo;That&rsquo;s exactly what Marla said, just before the storm descended upon us and ripped her head off.&rdquo;</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Take Her to a Soup Kitchen</h3>
<p>This will make her think you&rsquo;re a good, generous guy who loves to spend his time helping the less fortunate. Which of course is a crock of shit. And when you&rsquo;re done ladling watery soup into the cruddy bowls of wretched indigents, you can say to your girlfriend, who by this point should have fallen head over heels for your hollow virtue, &ldquo;Well since we&rsquo;re already here, we might as well grab a bite.&rdquo; Make sure to sneak in a candy bar for yourself, though, because that water bisque isn&rsquo;t going to do the trick.</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Take Her to an Auction</h3>
<p>But don&rsquo;t bid on anything. This way, she can enjoy all the fast-paced action of the auction atmosphere without forcing you to open your wallet. To prevent her from catching on to your little scheme, I recommend raising your paddle, as if to bid, a few times just<i> after</i> the auctioneer has closed the bidding on an item. &ldquo;Damn it,&rdquo; you can say, &ldquo;I really wanted that one.&rdquo; Or, &ldquo;Crap, I was so close that time.&rdquo; Don&rsquo;t jump the gun, though, or you might end up spending three thousand dollars on a staple gun once owned by the manager of the Steve Miller Band.</p>
<h3></h3>
<h3>Meet Her Online for a Virtual Date</h3>
<p>The odds are, you met your girlfriend online, so returning there with her now shouldn&rsquo;t feel too unnatural. She might even find it cute, like a reenactment of the wonderful night you stumbled upon each other in the Horny Upstate Singles chat room. Except this time, you probably won&rsquo;t be high on Quaaludes or sobbing uncontrollably. And an online date completely gets rid of the anxiety and fear that dominate even the best real dates. No, online you can be confident, and funny, and almost completely unterrified. Just make sure not to be <i>too </i>confident and funny, though, or she&rsquo;ll realize how meek and dull you are in real life.</p>
<p>And while your real-date options are practically limited to Applebee&rsquo;s, Ruby Tuesday, and Outback Steakhouse&mdash;your girlfriend is just crazy about sliders, and refuses to go to any restaurant that doesn&rsquo;t offer them&mdash;your virtual-date options are endless. You can meet her in a Florida Keys chat room, or an online forum dedicated to Lexington, Kentucky, or the discussion page on the Outback Steakhouse website. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<h3>&ldquo;Forget&rdquo; Your Wallet</h3>
<p>This is a cheap trick, but an effective trick. Take her someplace nice, and then just as you&rsquo;re about to enter the door, start rifling nervously through your pockets. &ldquo;Oh, crap, honey, I think I left my wallet at home. Looks like we&rsquo;re gonna have to go to Arby&rsquo;s, which I can still afford because I happen to have a five-dollar bill in my pocket for some reason.&rdquo; You should plant the five there beforehand, obviously.</p>
<p>After you pull this trick five or six times, though, she might start to catch on. But don&rsquo;t worry, there are a few variations on this general strategy that will keep her guessing. For example, don&rsquo;t <i>forget </i>your wallet, but instead bring the &ldquo;<i>wrong</i>&rdquo;<i> </i>wallet. So when the check comes, confidently take out your wallet, and then try to give a genuine look of horror as you open it up. &ldquo;Oh my God, honey, I think I brought the wrong wallet. I must&rsquo;ve left all my money in the other one.&rdquo; And by &ldquo;left all my money in the other one,&rdquo; you mean removed all your money from this one and hid it in your dresser. After paying the bill, she&rsquo;ll probably ask what the hell you have two wallets for&mdash;a reasonable question if there ever was one&mdash;to which you can respond, &ldquo;For the same reason you have so many goddamn purses.&rdquo;</p>
<h3>Take Her to Church</h3>
<p>It&rsquo;s free, it&rsquo;ll eliminate the need for trying fruitlessly to maintain interesting conversation&mdash;that is, it&rsquo;ll replace <i>your </i>awkward silence with <i>religious </i>awkward silence&mdash;and who knows, it might even save both your souls from an eternity in hell, during which time you&rsquo;d <i>definitely </i>run out of things to talk about. And if your girlfriend starts sweating like crazy whenever the pastor says anything about the sin of adultery, you&rsquo;ll know you&rsquo;re in trouble.</p>
<h3>Take Her on a Tour of Your Childhood Memories</h3>
<p>And of course, you can be lying out your ass. &ldquo;Here,&rdquo; you&rsquo;ll say, pointing to a lamppost you&rsquo;ve never seen before in your life, &ldquo;is where my dad first showed me the back of his hand. Because he had just gotten a tattoo on it, I mean, and he wanted me to see it. When I was too scared to look&mdash;I couldn&rsquo;t bear the thought of all those needles going into his skin&mdash;well, that got him so mad, he showed me the underside of his boot. You see, he had a scary picture of a clown painted on the bottom of his right boot, and whenever I was bad, he would show it to me as punishment. He&rsquo;d say, &lsquo;The clown&rsquo;s gonna get you, boy. The clown&rsquo;s gonna end you.&rsquo; And <i>that</i>, my love, is why I never wear boots. Well, that, and they chafe the hell out of my ankles.&rdquo; Of course, she&rsquo;ll be bored to death by these meandering, ad-libbed tales, but I say it&rsquo;s better to bore her for free than to bore her over an expensive Italian dinner at the Olive Garden.</p>
<h3>Take Her to ACE Hardware</h3>
<p>And tell her she can pick out anything she wants, your treat. The beauty of this is, there won&rsquo;t be a damn thing in the store that she&rsquo;ll want. So you can seem like Mr. Generous&mdash;&ldquo;Go on, honey, don&rsquo;t be shy, it&rsquo;s all on me today, because really, what&rsquo;s <i>money</i>, when you&rsquo;re with the person you <i>love</i>&rdquo;&mdash;without actually having to shell out any cash. The one thing you have to look out for, though, is if your girlfriend actually hates you and is looking for an opportunity to spite you. And this is a very real possibility, trust me. Because if she does hate you, there&rsquo;s a good chance you&rsquo;ll walk out of the store having blown a quarter of your yearly salary on a two-thousand dollar riding mower. And if you choose not to spring for the riding mower, you&rsquo;ll probably walk out of the store a bachelor.</p>
<h3>Take Her to an Expensive Restaurant</h3>
<p>But make sure it&rsquo;s closed at the time you arrive. &ldquo;God damn it,&#8221; you&#8217;ll say, &#8220;the place is closed! Oh man, I was really looking forward to spending all that money on you, too. Oh well, I guess we&rsquo;ll have to go to Arby&rsquo;s again.&rdquo; Now she may ask why in the world you thought this upscale French restaurant would be open at three in the morning, which is a fair question. The best you can do, I think, is to respond, &ldquo;Sometimes, baby, you just get a feeling about certain things. Like tonight, I just had a feeling this place would be open at three AM. I dunno why, I just did. The thing about feelings, though, is that sometimes, well, sometimes they&rsquo;re dead wrong. Like tonight, for example. Now let&rsquo;s get to Arby&rsquo;s before they run out of roast beef again.&rdquo;</p>

<h4>&nbsp;things that Rush Limbaugh reminds me of:</h4>
<ol>
<li> He reminds me of a sack of potatoes that has gone rotten.</li>

<li> He reminds me of a meat eating dinosaur who scavanges for food.</li>
<li>&nbsp;He reminds me of a jackass that won&#8217;t move to the left. He&#8217;s always stays to the right.</li>
<li>&nbsp;He reminds me of a big pile of manure. Perhaps he should step in it and see how it feels.</li>
<li>He reminds me of scrooge except that he never redeems himself.</li>
<li> He reminds me of a hippo. Actually, he looks like a hippo. He has a big butt.</li>

<h3>Impacts on Your Body</h3>
<ol>
<li>&nbsp;The tree may have something poisonous growing on it. When you hug it you will take in some of this poison. This won&#8217;t be too good for you.</li>
<li>&nbsp;There may be animals living in or on the tree. They may become aggressive as you hug the tree and disturb them. They might bite you or scratch you.</li>

		<description><![CDATA[Some stereotypes I have stumbled upon lol. Check them out.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stereotypes</p>
<p>What is up with the ridiculous stereotypes these days? People are just making things up like &ldquo;all black people look alike&rdquo;. That is a damn lie because if all black people looked alike everyone would be waking up to a Beyonce or a Denzel Washington. Do not get me wrong; there are some sexy black people other than Beyonce and Denzel but wouldn&rsquo;t it be nice. &nbsp;I am just tired of all of the stereo types lingering around and even children are making fun of others. Another one is all black people love chicken. &ldquo;I in fact hate chicken. I have never eaten a piece of chicken in a while and I am a mixed black guy. I searched and came across some pretty interesting stereotypes.</p>
<p>Check these out!</p>
<p>Italians, Spaniards, Latino-Americans: hot tempered, high sex drives, possibly &ldquo;prone to crime or violence&rdquo;</p>
<p>Jews: money-grubbing, excessively influential in the world for some reason, conspiring, conniving</p>
<p>Greeks: can&rsquo;t trust them, slick, business cheats, restaurant owners</p>
<p>Muslims (not an ethnicity/race but still stereotypes going on about them): possibly disloyal (esp. nowadays in America), possibly radicals or terrorists, can&rsquo;t be trusted, always covering their face,</p>
<p>French: &nbsp;arrogant, judgmental, rude (esp. Parisians)</p>
<p>Germans: &nbsp;prone to militarism, nationalism, and war, anti- Semitic, easily led by a strong dictatorial type leader</p>
<p>Scandinavians: &nbsp;politically progressive, open-minded, tall, naturally blonde, blue eyed, pale</p>
<p>British: pubs, football, fish and chips, sleazy tabloids, prudish, a bit cocky and arrogant</p>
<p>Irish: drunks, like to fight while drunk, cops (crooked) and firemen (crooked), always singing</p>
<p>Russians: polish, eastern Slavs, communists</p>
<p>Chinese: smart, physically smell, trained to do martial arts, everything is made in China, all look alike, eat with chop sticks, small package</p>
<p>Japanese: all business, good cars</p>
<p>Dutch: wooden shoes, windmills, drugs</p>
<p>Mexicans: Always working, construction workers, own the corner stores, only listen to music like (listen below), and have a lot of kids</p>
<p>

</p>
<p>Blacks: Look alike, failures, racists, drop-outs, love chicken, and love watermelon</p>
<p>Now what the hell!! We all are human beings; shouldn&rsquo;t that be all that matters? I hope you all have enjoyed reading my article.<br /><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Sub-Saharan-Africa.png" target="_blank"><br /></a></p>
