Mrs.Smith's First Dinner
Party
Mr. & Mrs. Smith have been back from their honeymoon for two weeks when
Mr. Smith comes home from work and says that he has invited 4 of his friends
from the office home for dinner on Friday night. The wife is a bit apprehensive
and asks if she must cook a meal for the four. The husband explains that
there will be eight coming because each will bring his wife.
Since this is their first party, the husband consoles her by saying that
all she has to do is get some Chinese food in and perhaps she can bake a
cake.
This sounds like a good idea, and they sit down and decide what Chinese food
to get.
Friday morning wife calls the office in tears. She explains that the only
cake recipe she has will only feed six.
Hubby says, "Why don't you just double the recipe?" She decides that is a
good idea.
At four, hubby gets another phone call -- this time quite frantic.
"I just can't do it," wifey weeps. "It's impossible."
"Now, now, what's the matter?"
"Well, their recipe calls for two eggs..."
"So, you use FOUR eggs. Don't you have them?"
"Yes -- then it needs 4 cups of flour."
"Well," hubby says rather testily, "you will have to use 8 cups of flour
--what is the problem?"
"It isn't the ingredients," wife sobs, "it says that the cake must be baked
at 350 degrees and I have checked the oven, and I can't turn the heat up
to 700 degrees!"

Dinner Time
A homeless man stops at a farmhouse to beg to spend the night. The farmer
answers the door and says "Sure, we can put you up."
The vagrant washes up for dinner and meets the family downstairs. Sitting
at the dinner table are the farmer, his wife, their son, and a gigantic pig
who is sitting at the table like a human. Throughout the meal the vagrant
tries not to stare at the pig, who sports three medals around his neck, as
well as a wooden leg.
Finally, he can contain his curiosity no longer. He asks "Would you mind
telling me about the bronze medal around your pig's neck?"
The farmer says "Sure. It's really an incredible story. Little Timmy here
was swimming in the lake when he got a cramp and started to drown. This pig
heard his cries for help, busted out of his pen, ran to the lake, and saved
our son's life. So, we gave him the medal."
The vagrant is amazed and says "Well, how about that silver medal?"
The farmer says "A few months ago our house caught fire in the middle of
the night while we were all sleeping. This pig saw the flames, busted out
of his pen and ran into the house, waking us up in time. To show our gratitude
we gave him that silver medal."
The homeless man says "While I'm at it, I might as well ask you about the
gold medal."
The farmer says "My wife was attacked by a burglar several weeks ago. This
pig heard her cries, busted out of his pen, and chased that man far away.
To show my thanks I gave him that gold medal"
The homeless man sits in awe of the pig, who is blithely eating his meal
with a knife and fork. He asks "What about the wooden leg?"
The farmer says, matter-of-factly, "Well, you don't eat a pig like THAT all
at once!"

The Magician
During a recent vacation in Las Vegas, a man went to see a popular magic
show. After one especially amazing feat, the man from the back of the theatre
yelled, "How'd you do that?"
"I could tell you, sir", the magician answered, "But then I'd have to kill
you."
After a short pause, the man yelled back, "Ok, then. Just tell my wife!"

I heard that if you play the Windows 2000 CD-ROM backwards, you'll hear a
satanic message. But the most frightening thing is that if you play it forward,
it installs Windows 2000.

The Greatest Archer
A duke is hunting in a forest with his men-at-arms and servants when he comes
upon a tree. Archery targets are painted all over it, and smack in the middle
of each is an arrow. "Who is this incredibly fine archer?" cries the duke.
"I must find him." After continuing through the forest for a few miles, he
comes across a small boy carrying a bow and arrow. Eventually the boy admits
that it was he who shot the arrows plumb in the centre of all the targets.
"You didn't just walk up to the targets and hammer the arrows into the middle,
did you?" asks the duke worriedly. "No my lord. I shot them from 100 paces.
I swear it by all that I hold holy." "That is truly astonishing," says the
duke. "I hereby admit you into my service. But I must ask one favour in return.
You must tell me how you came to be such an outstanding shot." "Well," said
the boy, "first I fire the arrow at the tree, and then I paint the target
around it."

Where to get the best
advice
A business executive injured his leg skiing one weekend. By the time he got
home Sunday, the leg was very swollen and he was having difficulty walking,
so he called his physician at his home. The doctor told him to soak it in
hot water. He tried soaking it in hot water but the leg became more swollen
and more painful.
His maid saw him limping and said, "I don't know, I'm only a maid, but I
always thought it was better to use cold water, not hot, for swelling." He
tried switching to cold water, and the swelling rapidly subsided.
On Monday morning he called his Dr. again to complain. "Say Doc, what kind
of a doctor are you anyway? You told me to soak my leg in hot water and it
got worse. My maid told me to use cold water and it got better."
"Really?" answered the doctor, "I don't understand it - my maid said hot
water."
