Proof that attorney's aren't all that smart

ATTORNEY: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check
for a pulse?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY Did you check for breathing?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when
you began the autopsy?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor?
WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.
ATTORNEY: But could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless?
WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law.

Darwinism in Education

Some students at the
University of Maryland are
required to take a difficult
class in physics.

One day, the professor was discussing
a particularly complicated
concept. A student rudely
interrupted to ask, "Why do we
have to learn this stuff?"

"To save lives," the
professor responded quickly
and continued the lecture.

A few minutes later, the same
student spoke up again. "So
how does physics save lives?"
he persisted.

"It prevents idiots like you
from graduating as civil
engineers and building
things," replied the professor.

Statistics of note

Doctors:

A) The number of doctors in the US is 700,000

B) Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year are 120,000

C) Accidental deaths per physician is 17.14%

Statistics courtesy of the US Dept. of Health & Human Services

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

Guns:

A) The number of gun owners in the US is 80,000,000
(yes that's 80 million!)

B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year,
all age groups is 1,500.

C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is 0.001875%

Statistics courtesy of the FBI

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

So statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

Remember, guns don't kill people, doctors do.


FACT:

NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS A DOCTOR.


Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We should ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!

Out of concern for the public at large, I have withheld statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.

The Statue


A woman was in bed with her lover when she heard her husband opening the
front door.

"Hurry!" she said. "Stand in the corner." She quickly rubbed baby oil all
over him and then she dusted him with talcum powder. "Don't move until I
tell you to," she whispered. "Just pretend you're a statue."

"What's this honey?" the husband inquired as he entered the room.

"Oh, its just a statue," she replied nonchalantly. "The Smiths bought one
for their bedroom. I liked it so much, I got one for us too."

No more was said about the statue, not even later that night when they
went to sleep.

Around 2 a.m., the husband got out of bed, went to the kitchen and
returned a while later with a sandwich and a glass of milk. "Here," he said to the
statue, "Eat something. I stood at the Smith's for three days like an
idiot and nobody offered me so much as a glass of water."

Elvis Memories

JUST THINK, ELVIS WOULD BE 70 THIS MONTH.

If Elvis had lived longer, he possibly would have re-written, "Are You Lonesome Tonight,"

Here's how it might have turned out. Turn up speakers and sing along !

SMARTS

An old man in Florida had owned a large farm for

several years. He had a large pond in the back, fixed

up nice: picnic tables, horseshoe pits, a

volleyball court, and some apple and peach trees.


The pond was properly shaped and fixed up for swimming.

One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the

pond and look it over, as he hadn't been there for a while.

He grabbed a five gallon bucket to bring back some fruit.

As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and

laughing with glee. As he came closer he saw it was a

bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He

made the women aware of his presence and they all

went to the deep end. One of the women shouted to him,

"We're not coming out until you leave!"

The old man frowned, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies

swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked."

Holding the bucket up he said, "I'm here to feed the

alligator."

Old men can still think fast.

Three Arkansas Surgeons

I saw this joke over at Liz's site and I JUST had to steal borrow it.

Three Arkansas surgeons were playing golf together and discussing surgeries they had performed. The first one says, “I’m the best surgeon in Arkansas. A concert pianist lost 7 fingers in an accident, I reattached them, and 8 months later he performed a private concert for the Queen of England.” The second one says, “That’s nothing. A young man lost an arm and both legs in an accident, I reattached them, and 2 years later he won a gold medal in field events in the Olympics.”

The third surgeon says, “You guys are amateurs. Several years ago a lady was high on cocaine and marijuana and she rode a horse head on into a train traveling 80 miles an hour. All I had left to work with was the horse’s blond mane and a big ass. Now, she’s the Junior Senator from New York.

You know...that explains a lot....

Quiz Time..

I saw this quiz at Acidmans site. He was bemoaning the fact that he was a Honda, and not an American made car. So I thought I'd take the quiz and see what I was.

I'm a Chevrolet Corvette!



You're a classic - powerful, athletic, and competitive. You're all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do.


Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.

Well I guess I can handle that....at least I'm a domestic brand!

Quiz

Sorry about the lightweight postings; I've just been too busy with our new boarders and my Mother being in the hospital.

Hope to have some good political stuff soon..With Pelosi, Dean, Gore, and Shillery doing their best to get face time, I'm sure there will be some good blog fodder.





You Are a Boston Creme Donut



You have a tough exterior. No one wants to mess with you.

But on the inside, you're a total pushover and completely soft.

You're a traditionalist, and you don't change easily.

You're likely to eat the same doughnut every morning, and pout if it's sold out.

Sounds like me...And If Kennedy can be a jelly donut, I guess a Boston Creme isn't all that bad.

Southern Grandma

Lawyers should never ask a Southern grandma a question if they aren't
prepared for the answer.

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness, a grand motherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"

She responded, "Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you
since you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a big
disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you
manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think
you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you never will
amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed
across the room and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense
attorney?"

She again replied, "Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was
a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem.
He can't build a normal relationship with anyone and his law practice is
one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife
with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him."

The defense attorney almost died.

The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench, and in a very
quiet voice, said, "If either of you bastards asks her if she knows me,
I'll throw your sorry asses in jail for contempt."

Need I say Who sent me this?!

THE SKUNK


A man and his wife were driving home one very cold night when
the wife asks her husband to stop the car.

There was a baby skunk lying at the side of the road, and she got out to see if it was still alive.

It was, and she said to her husband, "It's nearly frozen to
death. Can we take it with us, get it warm, and let it go in the morning?"

He says, "O.K., get in the car with it."

"Where shall I put it to get it warm?" she asked.

"Put it in between your legs. It's nice and warm there," he suggested.

"But what about the smell?" she asked.

"Just hold its nose."

...the man is expected to recover, but the skunk she used to beat him
with died at the scene.

Yep!, Catfish again....

SNIFFER

I get on the plane and I'm sitting there by the window with two vacant seats when another man sat down in the aisle seat and put his black Labrador Retriever in the middle seat next to me.

I'm wondering about the dog and I ask why the dog is allowed on the plane. The man explained that he is a DEA agent and that the dog is a "sniffing dog." His name is Sniffer and he's the best there is. I'll show you once we get airborne and I put him to work.

The plane takes off, and once it has leveled out, the agent says: "Watch this." He tells Sniffer to "search."

Sniffer jumps down, walks along the aisle, and finally sits very purposefully next to a woman for a several seconds. Sniffer then returns to its seat and puts one paw on the agent's arm.

The agent says, "Good boy," and he turns to the man and says "that woman is in possession of marijuana, so I'm making a note of her seat number and the authorities will apprehend her when we land."

I say "that's pretty neat."

Once again, the agent sends Sniffer to search the aisles The Lab sniffs about, sits down beside a man for a few seconds, returns to its seat, and this time, he places TWO paws on the agent's arm. The agent says, "That man is carrying cocaine, so, again, I'm making a note of his seat number for the police."

"I like it!" I tell him.

The agent then told Sniffer to "search" again. Sniffer walked up and down the aisles for a little while, sat down for a moment, and then came racing back to the agent, jumped into the middle seat and pooped.

I was really grossed out by this behavior and can't figure out how or why a well-trained dog would act like that, so I ask the agent "what's going on?"

The agent nervously replied, "He just found a bomb!"
