What's the cutoff on raciness?
Just realized what we were missing!
Every board needs a joke thread.
Here's one to start.
(Note: I'm not starting with my A material. (Like I have any?))
rear ended a car today.......
It was a REALLY bad day!
The driver got out of the other car, and he was a friggin DWARF!!
He looked up at me and said "I am NOT Happy!"
So I said, "well, Which one are you then?"
Not good enough? Do better!![]()

Two roads diverged in a wood,
and I- I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Ithaca is (not) Vermont (but it is gorges)
There is the Jean Redpath saying that if you were really innocent, you'd have no idea what I was talking about. (She put some of the poems of Robert Bournes to music.)
Still, I would suggest remembering who the audience is.![]()

For all you non-musicians out there... you might as well skip this one.
A "C" and "Eb" and a "G" walk into a bar. The bartender says, "sorry, we don't serve minors." So the "Eb" leaves and the "C" and the "G" share a perfect "fifth."![]()

The bartender asked, "Is this some kind of joke?"

I was having some severe elbow pain late one night last week.
I called my usual acupuncturist, who told me to "take two thumb tacks and call my office in the morning".

The Tico Fisherman And The Wall Street Analyst An American businessman was at the pier of a small coastal Costa Rican village when a small boat with just one fisherman docked. Inside the boat were several large yellow-fin tuna.
The American complimented the Costa Rican Tico on the quality of his fish, and asked how long it took to catch them.
"Only a little while," the Tico replied. The American then asked why he didn't stay out longer and catch more fish. The Tico said he had enough to support his family's immediate needs.
The American then asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"
The Tico fisherman said, "I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, take siesta with my wife Maria, stroll into the village each evening, where I sip wine and play guitar with my amigos. I have a full and busy life, senor."
The American scoffed, "I am a Wall Street executive and could help you. You should spend more time fishing, and with the proceeds buy a bigger boat and a Web presence. A scalable, go-forward plan would provide capital for several new boats. Eventually, you would have a fleet of fishing boats. Instead of selling your catch to a middleman, you would sell directly to the processor, eventually opening your own cannery. You would control the product, processing and distribution. You would need to leave this small coastal fishing village and move to San Jose, Costa Rica, then to Los Angeles and, eventually, New York City, where you would outsource tasks to third-party clients to help run your expanding enterprise in a vertical market."
The Tico fisherman asked, "But senor, how long will all this take?"
To which the American replied, "15 to 20 years."
"But what then, senor?"
The American laughed and said, "That's the best part. When the time is right, you will announce an IPO and sell your company stock to the public and become very rich. You will make millions."
"Millions, senor? Then what?"
The American said, "Then you will retire, move to a small coastal fishing village where you can sleep late, fish a little, play with your kids, take siesta with your wife, and stroll to the village in the evenings, where you will sip wine and play your guitar with your amigos."
I thought it was ok. In fact, I spent a bit of time looking to see if the intro of the song Hallelujah I'm A Bum, by Utah Phillips, was printed on the net. I have him doing it on tape, and it is quite similar.
How about a little Steven Wright.
Curiosity killed the cat, but for a while I was a suspect.
Everywhere is walking distance if you have the time.
I bought some batteries, but they weren't included.
I have an existential map. It has 'You are here' written all over it.
I used to work in a fire hydrant factory. You couldn't park anywhere near the place.
I was walking down the street wearing glasses when the prescription ran out.
If you shoot at mimes, should you use a silencer?
It doesn't make a difference what temperature a room is, it's always room temperature.
It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it.
Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.
Last night somebody broke into my apartment and replaced everything with exact duplicates... When I pointed it out
to my roommate, he said, 'Do I know you?'
Last year I went fishing with Salvador Dali. He was using a dotted line. He caught every other fish.
My theory of evolution is that Darwin was adopted.
There's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.
What's another word for Thesaurus?
When I woke up this morning my girlfriend asked me, 'Did you sleep good?' I said 'No, I made a few mistakes.'
You can't have everything. Where would you put it?

Two Polish hunters from Chicago hired a pilot to fly them to Canada to hunt moose. They bagged six.
As they started loading the plane for the return trip home, the pilot tells them he can take only three moose.
The two Poles objected strongly, stating; "Last year we shot six moose and the pilot let us put them all on board and he had the same size plane as yours."
Reluctantly, the pilot gave in and all six were loaded.
Unfortunately, even on full power, the little plane couldn't handle the load and went down a few minutes after takeoff.
Climbing out of the wreck, Stasiu asked Wladek, "Any idea where we are?"
Wladek replied, "I think we're pretty close to where we crashed last year."![]()

THE IRISHMAN AND THE MORMON
A Mormon was seated next to an Irishman on a flight from London.
After the plane was airborne, drink orders were taken.
The Irishman asked for a whiskey, which was promptly brought and placed
before him.
The flight attendant then asked the Mormon if he would like a drink.
He replied in disgust, "I'd rather be savagely raped by a dozen whores than
let liquor touch my lips."
The Irishman then handed his drink back to the attendant and said, "Me,
too, I didn't know we had a choice."
"It could be that the purpose of your life is only to serve as a warning to others."
