Want to Laugh

Want to Laugh!!!!

A friend emailed these to me and I thought you might enjoy them. They made me laugh and I hope you get a chuckle or two out of them

Top 8 morons of 2002

1. WILL THE REAL DUMMY PLEASE STAND UP? AT&T fired President John Walter after nine months, saying he lacked intellectual leadership. He received a $26 million severance package. Perhaps it's not Walter who's lacking intelligence.

2. WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS:
Police in Oakland, California spent two hours attempting to subdue a gunman who had barricaded himself inside his home. After firing ten tear gas canisters, officers discovered that the man was standing beside them in the police line, shouting, "Please come out and give yourself up."

3. WHAT WAS PLAN B???
An Illinois man, pretending to have a gun, kidnapped a motorist and forced him to drive to two different automated teller machines, wherein the kidnapper proceeded to withdraw money from his own bank accounts.

4. THE GETAWAY!
A man walked into a Topeka, Kansas, Kwik Stop, and asked for all the money in the cash drawer. Apparently, the take was too small, so he tied up the store clerk and worked the counter himself for three hours until police showed up and grabbed him.

5. DID I SAY THAT???
Police in Los Angeles had good luck with a robbery suspect who just couldn't control himself during a lineup. When detectives asked each man in the lineup to repeat the words: "Give me all your money or I'll shoot," the man shouted, "That's not what I said!"

6. ARE WE COMMUNICATING??
A man spoke frantically into the phone, "My wife is pregnant and her contractions are only two minutes apart!" "Is this her first child?" the doctor asked. "No!" the man shouted, "This is her husband!"

7. NOT THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHED!!
In Modesto, California, Steven Richard King was arrested for trying to hold up a Bank of America branch without a weapon. King used a thumb and finger to simulate a gun, but unfortunately, he failed to keep his hand in his pocket. (hellllllooooooo!)

8. THE GRAND FINALE (I LOVE THIS ONE!!!)
Last summer, down on Lake Isabella, located in the high desert, an hour east of Bakersfield, California, some folks, new to boating, were having a problem. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get their brand new 22 ft. boat going. It was very sluggish in almost every maneuver, no matter how much power was applied. After about an hour of trying to make it go, they putted to a nearby marina, thinking someone there could tell them what was wrong. A thorough topside check revealed everything in perfect working condition. The engine ran fine, the out drive went up and down, and the prop was the correct size and pitch. So, one of the marina guys jumped in the water to check underneath. He came up choking on water, he was laughing so hard. NOW REMEMBER... THIS IS TRUE .... Under the boat, still strapped securely in place, was the trailer.

Those were hilarious Dee........here's some more:

>"Would you like us to call you before we come?" I replied that I didn't see

>IDIOTS AT WORK:
>I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed
>I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card. She informed me

>She carefully compared the signature to the one I had just signed on the

>IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
>I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local

>IDIOT SIGHTING #2
>The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was

Want to Laugh!!!!

Show, those were hysterical

This actually happened to me the other day. I went to the Post Office to mail a package and as the clerk was weighing it he asked me if the package contained any explosives or threatening devices in it. Of course my answer was NO. He then said--would you tell me if it did. We both laughed. Afterwards, I thought -- boy I feel so much safer that our government is taking so many precautions here. Believe me that is not praise.
