Hey guys, I am really sorry.  I was just trying to lighten things up on a Thursday afternoon.  I tried to pass on something that I thought was appropriate for the level of sophistication of the typical ATF fan.

Take this joke for instance:

'A female elephant goes into a pub and see this good looking male rhinocerous.  The elephant catches the eye of the rhino and he comes over to chat her up.  They get on well and agree to swap 'phone numbers and go on a date.  As the rhino is about to leave, the elephant says, "My name's Betty, what's yours?" "Neal"  The rhino replies and leaves.

As soon as he is gone, the elephant starts texting her mates saying, "Hey everybody, I've just got a date with Rhino Neal!"'

I would never dream of posting a joke like that on this Forum.

A woman walks into a bar. It's pretty out of the way, and on the fifth floor so it's all but empty except for one fellow at the bar. "What are you drinking?" asks the woman, the man replies "This magic beer, it's great. If you drink a pint of it you can fly like a bird". Thinking the man's a complete drunk she laughs and asks him to prove it, so the man jumps out the window, flies around the building, back in the window and sits down. "There", he says.
Thinking she was seeing things, the woman asks the man to do it again to make sure she wasn't dreaming - so out the window he goes, flies around the building and comes back in the window. "There", he says again.
"That's amazing, bartender - I'll have one of what he's having!" the woman cries. So she downs her pint, says "Watch this!" and promptly dives out the window. On hearing the bone crunching splat a few seconds later the bartender turns to the man and says "You're a real clever dick when you're drunk, Superman"

i should think not  we do have standards to keep up


not like these



Why do men pass gas more than women do?

Because women won't shut up long enough to build up pressure


An old lady stops me in the street and says, " Can you see across the road"

I reply " Hang on love, I'll go and have a look"





A guy goes on vacation to the Holy Land with his wife and mother-in-law.

Two days into their trip, the mother-in-law dies. The couple go to a local funeral director, who explains their options. He tells them that they can ship her body home, but it would cost them over $5000, whereas they can bury her in the Holy Land for only $150.

The guy immediately answers, "We'll ship her home."

The undertaker asks, "Are you sure? That's an awfully big expense and we can do a very nice burial and funeral service here."

The guy says, "Look, 2000 years ago they buried a guy here and three days later he rose from the dead. I just can't take any chances."

or this



A little old lady goes to her doctor and explains, "I have this problem with gas, but it really doesn't bother me too much.

She goes on to say, they never smell and are always silent. As a matter of fact, I've farted at least 20 times since I've been here in your office and you didn’t even notice that I did because they don't smell and are silent."

"I see” says the doctor, “Take these pills and come back to see me next week."

The next week the lady goes back. "Doctor," she says, "I don't know what you gave me, but now my farts -- although still silent -- stink terribly."

The doctor says, "Excellent, now that we've cleared up your sinuses, let's work on your hearing...."

Despite their troubled history, there are some great jokes told by Jewish
people against themselves:

A Jewish widow phones in to The Jewish Chronicle to place the
announcement of her husband's death.

"The minimum we do is ten words which will cost £20" says the paper.
"OK" she says, "I want to make it short anyway."
"Write 'Jacob died Tuesday. Will be missed."
"You have three words left" says the person on the paper. "You may as
well get your money's worth."
The woman thinks: "OK, can you add 'Volvo for Sale"

THIS IS TRUE!!!

Arms manufacturing monolith BAE Systems has decided to improve its whale-hugging credentials by developing a range of next-generation, environmentally-friendly weapons designed to be friendlier to Mother Earth.

Included in the list of tree-hugging hardware is the "lead-free" bullet, offering clear advantages over the traditional variety which "can harm the environment and pose a risk to people".


You could not make it up.

An American tourist on holiday in Jerusalem is waiting to rendezvous with
other members of her group when she notices that her watch has
stopped. Anxious not to miss her friends, she runs up and down the
street looking for a watch repairer. She comes across a shop window in
which she can just make out, under layers of dust, some clocks and
watches, so in she goes. From behind a curtain comes an old man, beard
down to his chest, round glasses perched on the end of his nose.
"Sir" she says, "I'm meeting my friends and I need you to fix my watch
which has stopped."
"Ah ! My Dear" says the old man, "But I'm afraid you have come to the
wrong place to have fixed your watch. You need a watch repairer. I am
not one of those people."
"So what is it you do?" asks the woman, somewhat curiously.
"Madam, if you will excuse me, I provide the service of circumcision to the
Gentiles who wish it should be done to them."
Taken aback, the woman asks "So why is your shop window filled with
clocks and watches?"
The man looks at her. "And what should I be putting in my window?"

REST OF THE WORLD VERSION:

The squirrel works hard in the withering heat all summer long,
building and improving his house and laying up supplies for the
winter. The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the squirrel is warm and well fed.

The shivering grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

THE END

------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------------

THE BRITISH VERSION:

The squirrel works hard in the withering heat all summer long,

Building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the
summer away. Come winter, the squirrel is warm and well fed.

A social worker finds the shivering grasshopper, calls a press
conference and demands to know why the squirrel should be allowed to
be warm and well fed while others less fortunate, like the
grasshopper, are cold and starving. The BBC shows up to provide live
coverage of the shivering grasshopper; with cuts to a video of the
squirrel in his comfortable warm home with a table laden with food.

The British press inform people that they should be ashamed that in a
country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so
while others have plenty. The Labour Party, Greenpeace, Animal Rights
and The Grasshopper Council of GB demonstrate in front of the
squirrel's' house. The BBC, interrupting a cultural festival special
from Notting Hill with breaking news, broadcasts a multi cultural
choir singing "We Shall Overcome". Ken Livingstone rants in an
interview with Trevor McDonald that the squirrel has got rich off the
backs of grasshoppers, and calls for an immediate tax hike on the
squirrel to make him pay his "fair share" and increases the charge for
squirrels to enter inner London.

In response to pressure from the media, the Government drafts the
economic Equity and Grasshopper Anti Discrimination Act, retroactive
to the beginning of the summer. The squirrel's taxes are reassessed.

He is taken to court and fined for failing to hire grasshoppers as
builders for the work he was doing on his home and an additional fine
for contempt when he told the court the grasshopper did not want to
work.

The grasshopper is provided with a council house, financial aid to
furnish it and an account with a local taxi firm to ensure he can be
socially mobile.

The squirrels food is seized and re distributed to the more needy
members of society, in this case the grasshopper.

Without enough money to buy more food, to pay the fine and his newly
imposed retroactive taxes, the squirrel has to downsize and start
building a new home. The local authority takes over his old home and
utilises it as a temporary home for asylum seeking cats who had
hijacked a plane to get to Britain as they had to share their country
of origin with mice. On arrival they have tried to blow up the
airport because of Britain's apparent love of dogs.

The cats had been arrested for the international offence of hijacking
and attempt bombing but were immediately released because the police
fed them pilchards instead of salmon whilst in custody. Initial moves
to then return them to their own country were abandoned because it was
feared they would face death by the mice. The cats devise and start a
scam to obtain money from peoples credit cards.

A Panorama special shows the grasshopper finishing up the last of the
squirrels' food, though Spring is still months away, while the
council house he is in, crumbles around him because he hasn't bothered
to maintain the house. He is shown to be taking drugs.

Inadequate government funding is blamed for the grasshoppers drug
'illness'.

The cats seek recompense in the British courts for their treatment since
arrival in UK.
The grasshopper gets arrested for stabbing an old dog during a
burglary to get money for his drugs habit. He is imprisoned but
released immediately because he has been in custody for a few weeks.

He is placed in the care of the probation service to monitor and
supervise him. Within a few weeks he has killed a guinea pig in a
botched robbery.

A commission of enquiry, that will eventually cost £10,000,000 and
state the obvious, is set up.

Additional money is put into funding a drug rehabilitation scheme for
grasshoppers and legal aid for lawyers representing asylum seekers is
increased.

The asylum seeking cats are praised by the government for enriching
Britain's multicultural diversity and dogs are criticised by the
Government for failing to befriend the cats.

The grasshopper dies of a drug overdose. The usual sections of the
press blame it on the obvious failure of government to address the
root causes of despair arising from social inequity and his traumatic
experience of prison. They call for the resignation of a minister.

The cats are paid a million pounds each because their rights were
infringed when the government failed to inform them there were mice in
the United Kingdom.

The squirrel, the dogs and the victims of the hijacking, the bombing,
the burglaries and robberies have to pay an additional percentage on
their credit cards to cover losses; their taxes are increased to pay
for law and order and they are told that they will have to work beyond
65 because of a shortfall in government funds.

THE END

A little boy goes up to his father and asks: "Dad, where did all of my intelligence come from?"

The father replies. "Well son, you must have got it from your mother, because I still have mine"





A man comes home, runs into his house, slams the door and says, "Honey pack your bags, I won the lottery"!!!!!

"Wow! That's great! I'm so happy!! "Should I pack for the ocean, a safari, or for the mountains?, asks the wife

"I don't care", he says, "Just get out."
