First Lady Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 A modern day cowboy has spent many days crossing the western plains without water. His horse has already died of thirst. He's crawling through the sand, certain that he has breathed his last breath, when all of a sudden; he sees an object sticking out of the sand several yards ahead of him. He crawls to the object, pulls it out of the sand, and discovers what looks to be an old brief case. He opens it and out pops a genie. But this is no ordinary genie. She is wearing a Tax Office ID badge and a dull grey dress. There's a calculator in her pocket-book. She has a pencil tucked behind one ear. "Well, cowboy," says the genie... "You know how I work. You have three wishes." "I'm not falling for this." said the cowboy. "I'm not going to trust an Inland Revenue genie." "What do you have to lose? You've got no transportation, and it looks like you're a goner anyway!" The cowboy thinks about this for a minute, and decides that the genie is right. "OK, I wish I were in a lush oasis with plenty of food and drink." ***POOF*** The cowboy finds himself in the most beautiful oasis he has ever seen. And he is surrounded with jugs of wine and platters of delicacies. "OK, cowpoke, what's your second wish." "My second wish is that I was rich beyond my wildest dreams." ***POOF*** The cowboy finds himself surrounded by treasure chests filled with rare gold coins and precious gems. "OK, cowpuncher, you have just one more wish. Better make it a good one!" After thinking for a few minutes, the cowboy says... "I wish that no matter where I go, beautiful women will want and need me." ****OOOF**** He turned into a tampon. The moral of the story: If the government offers you anything, there's going to be a string attached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Gargett Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 that was being told when i was at kindergarten. seriously. i remember because i had no idea what a tampon was. so, having used up everythingthing in 'the big book of jokes, circa, '60s', we are now headed backwards in time. i expect plagurism of shakespeare any time now. still, that culd be unfair. it is not unreasonabloe to sppose that these jokes have just arrived in redcliffe.

skindiver Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 It was the first time I heard that one, Lisa! It was funny, too! Pay no attention to Ken as his strings are much too loose to connect to much of anything, much less humour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
