Three weeks ago I sent my hearing aid in for maintenance.
I haven't heard a word back.
Like John Wayne said "Life's tough and it's tougher if you're stupid".
A local bar was so sure that its barman was the strongest man that they offered a standing $1000 bet.
The barman would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran out and challenge any man to squeeze out another drop.
Weightlifters, arm wrestlers, they all tried and lost the bet.
Then one day, a scrawny little man, (if he stood sideways you would not see him) wearing scratched glasses, a ten year old polyester suit, walked in and said, “I'd like to take on the bet."
After the laughter had died down, the barman said, "Okay", grabbed a lemon and squeezed away.
Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the Lemon Rind to the little man.
But the Crowd's laughter turned to total silence....as the man clenched his little fist around the lemon....six drops fell into the glass.
As the barman paid the $1000 bet, he asked "What do you do for a living? Are you a lumberjack, a metal worker, a weight-lifter, or what?"
The little man quietly replied: "I work for the Tax Department...”
Ain't that the sad truth! LOL
A Catholic nun jumped into a cab, told the cabbie her destination and off they went. About 10 minutes into the ride, the cabbie said, "I've always wanted to kiss a nun, would it be possible to give you a little kiss?" The nun thought about it for awhile and told the cabbie he could, but only if he met two conditions. She asked him if he was single and if he was catholic, the cabbie said yes to both questions. He pulled the cab over to the curb and the nun laid a kiss on him that was enough to curl his toenails! He started driving again and told the nun, "I have to confess, I'm not really single and I'm not really catholic". The nun responded, "That's ok, I'm not really a nun, my name is Steve and I'm on my way to a Halloween party". Moral of the story, be careful what you wish for!
So Daffy Duck and Elmer Fudd break into a distillery. Daffy turns to Elmer and asks, “Is this whisky?”
Elmer replies, “Yeth but not as whisky as wobbing a bank.”
Ha Ha LoL, thats a good one
A rookie police officer pulled a biker over for speeding and had the following exchange:
Officer: May I see your driver's license?
Biker: I don't have one. I had it suspended when I got my 5th DUI.
Officer: May I see your registration for this vehicle?
Biker: It's not my bike. I stole it.
Officer: The motorcycle is stolen?
Biker: That's right. But come to think of it, I think I saw the registration in the tool bag when I was putting my gun in there.
Officer: There's a gun in the tool bag?
Biker: Yes sir. That's where I put it after I shot and killed the dude who owns this bike and stuffed his dope in the saddle bags.
Officer: There's drugs in the saddle bags too?!?!?
Biker: Yes, sir. Hearing this, the rookie immediately called his captain. The biker was quickly surrounded by police, and the captain approached the biker to handle the tense situation:
Captain: Sir, can I see your license?
Biker: Sure. Here it is. It was valid.
Captain: Who's motorcycle is this?
Biker: It's mine, officer. Here's the registration.
Captain: Could you slowly open your tool bag so I can see if there's a gun in it?
Biker: Yes, sir, but there's no gun in it. Sure enough, there was nothing in the tool bag.
Captain: Would you mind opening your saddle bags? I was told you said there's drugs in them.
Biker: No problem. The saddle bags were opened; no drugs.
Captain: I don't understand it. The officer who stopped you said you told him you didn't have a license, stole this motorcycle, had a gun in the tool bag, and that there were drugs in the saddle bags.
Biker: Yeah, I'll bet he told you I was speeding, too.
A lawyer boarded an airplane in Dublin with a box of frozen crabs and asked the blonde flight attendant to take care of them for him.
She took the box and promised to put it in the crew's fridge.
He advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen, mentioning in a very haughty manner that he was a lawyer, and proceeded to rant at her about what would happen if she let them thaw out.
Needless to say, she was annoyed by his behavior.
Shortly before landing in London, she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin, "Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in Dublin, please raise your hand?"
Not one hand went up.... So she took them home and enjoyed them.
Two lessons here:
1. Lawyers aren't as smart as they think they are.
2. Blondes aren't as dumb as most folk think
A woman decided to give herself a big treat for her 70th birthday by staying overnight in a really nice hotel.. When she checked out the next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for $250.00.
She demanded to know why the charge was so high "I agree it's a nice hotel, but the rooms aren't worth $250..00 for just an overnight stay - I didn't even have breakfast!"
The clerk told her that $250.00 is the 'standard rate,' and breakfast had been included had she wanted it.
She insisted on speaking to the Manager. The Manager appeared and, forewarned by the desk clerk, announced: "This hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center which are available for use."
"But I didn't use them."
'Well, they are here, and you could have." He went on to explain that she could also have seen one of the in-hotel shows for which they were so famous. "We have the best entertainers from the world over performing here."
"But I didn't go to any of those shows.."
"Well, we have them, and you could have."
No matter what amenity the Manager mentioned, she replied, "But I didn't use it!" and the Manager countered with his standard response.
After several minutes discussion, and with the Manager still unmoved, she decided to pay, wrote a check and gave it to him. The Manager was surprised when he looked at the check.
"But Madam, this check is for only $50.00"
"That's correct I charged you $200.00 for sleeping with me."
"But I didn't!"
"Well, too bad - I was here, and you could have."
My wife and I walked past a swanky new restaurant...
"Did you smell that food?" She asked. "It smells absolutely incredible!"
Being a generous kind hearted bloke, I thought "What the heck..., I'll treat her!"
So...we walked past it again.

That reminds me of a joke. This gal is sitting at a bar crying in her beer. A guy walks over and asks her what's the matter. She told him her partner had just left her because she's too kinky. He told her that was an amazing coincidence, as his partner had just left him for being too kinky. One thing leads to another and they end up back at her place. She tells him to wait while she changes into something more comfortable. A few minutes later she comes out in full dominatrix regalia. The guy, however, is headed out the door. She asks where he's going, as she was just ready to start the party. He told her he had just screwed her dog and taken a dump in her purse, and that his evening was complete.
sorry about that just too funny

So an 80 year old man went to the doctor for a check-up and the doctor was amazed at what good shape the guy was in.
The doctor asked, "To what do you attribute your good health?"
The old timer said, "I'm a biker and that's why I'm in such good shape, I'm up well before daylight on Sundays and out sliding around corners, "shootin" sand washes and riding up and down the steepest, wildest mountains I can find at the crack of dawn."
The doctor said, "Well, I'm sure that helps, but there's got to be more to it. How old was your dad when he died?"
The old biker said, "Who said my dad's dead?"
The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your dad's still alive? How old is he?"
The old biker said, "He's 99 years old and, in fact, he went riding with me this Sunday, and that's why he's still alive, he's a biker too.”
The doctor said, "Well, that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it. How about your dad's dad? How old was he when he died?
The old biker said, "Who said my grandpa's dead?"
The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's still living! How old is he?"
The old biker replied, "He's 117 years old”
The doctor was getting frustrated at this point and said, "I guess he went riding with you this Sunday too?"
The old timer said, "No... Grandpa couldn't go this week because he got married”
The Doctor said in amazement, "Got married! Good Lord! Why would a 117-year-old guy want to get married?"
To this the old biker smiled and answered, "Who said he wanted to?"

Farmer Fred lived on a quiet rural highway. But, as time went by, the traffic slowly built up at an alarming rate. The traffic was so heavy and so fast that his chickens were being run over at a rate of three to six a day.
So one day farmer Fred called the sheriff's office and said "You've got to do something about all of these people driving so fast and killing all of my chickens."
"What do you want me to do?" asked the sheriff.
"I don't care, just do something about those crazy drivers!"
The next day he had the county workers go out and erected a sign that said: SLOW--SCHOOL CROSSING.
Three days later Farmer Fred called the sheriff and said, "You've got to do something about these drivers. The 'school crossing' sign seems to make them go even faster."
So, again, the sheriff sends out the county workers and they put up a new sign: SLOW: CHILDREN AT PLAY.
That really sped them up. So Farmer Fred called and called and called every day for three weeks.
Finally, he asked the sheriff, "Your signs are doing no good. Can I put up my own sign?"
The sheriff told him, "Sure thing, put up your own sign."
He was going to let Farmer Fred do just about anything in order to get him to stop calling everyday to complain.
The sheriff got no more calls from Farmer Fred. Three weeks later, curiosity got the better of the sheriff and he decided to give Farmer Fred a call.
"How's the problem with those drivers. Did you put up your sign?"
"Oh, I sure did. And not one chicken has been killed since then. I've got to go. I'm very busy." He hung up the phone.
The sheriff was really curious now and he thought to himself, I'd better go out there and take a look at that sign... it might be something that we could use to slow down drivers...
So the sheriff drove out to Farmer Fred's house, and his jaw dropped the moment he saw the sign. It was roughly brush painted on a sheet of plywood:
NUDIST COLONY. GO SLOW AND WATCH OUT FOR THE CHICKS
We all know these people.....
A chicken farmer went to a local bar, sat next to a woman and ordered a glass of champagne.
The woman perks up and says "How about that? I just ordered a glass of champagne, too!"
"What a coincidence" the farmer says "This is a special day for me I am celebrating"
"This is a special day for me too, I am also celebrating!" says the woman.
"What a coincidence!" says the farmer? As they clinked glasses the man asked "What are you celebrating?"
"My husband and I have been trying to have a child and today my gynaecologist told me that I am pregnant!"
"What a coincidence "says the man. "I'm a chicken farmer and for years all of my hens were infertile, but today they are all laying fertilized eggs "
"That's great!" says the woman, "How did your chickens become fertile?"
"I used a different cock," he replied.
The woman smiled and said, "What a coincidence"
A guy on a Harley is riding by the zoo in Washington, DC when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the collar of her jacket and tries to pull her inside under the eyes of her screaming parents. The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl, and the biker brings the girl to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly.
A reporter has watched the whole event. The reporter addressing the Harley rider says, “Sir, this was the most gallant and bravest thing I've seen a man do in my whole life.”
The Harley rider replies, “Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt right.”
The reporter says, “Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a journalist and tomorrow's paper will have this story on the front page. So, what do you do for a living, and what political affiliation do you have?”
The biker replies, "I'm a U.S. Marine, a Republican and I voted for Trump."
The journalist leaves.
The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front page:
“U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT & STEALS HIS LUNCH”
And that pretty much sums up the media's approach to the news these days!
A woman went to A&E with incontrollable hiccups where she was seen by a young new doctor. After about 3 minutes being examined, the doctor told her she was pregnant.
She burst out of the room and ran down the corridor screaming.
An older doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was. After listening to her story, he calmed her down and sat her in another room.
Then, the doctor marched down the hallway to the first doctor's room.
"What the hell's wrong with you?" he demanded. "This woman is 68 years old, she has two grown children and several grandchildren, and you told her she was pregnant?!!"
The new doctor continued to write on his clipboard and without looking up said.....
"Does she still have the hiccups?"
A Belfast lad takes his girlfriend home for the first time.
He says, " This is Amanda."
His dad jumps up. "It's a f*****g what?"
I can relate to this....
Wife: "I have a bagful of used clothes I'd like to donate to Red Cross."
Husband : "Why not just throw them in the trash? That's much easier."
Wife: "But there are poor starving people who could really use these clothes."
Husband: "Honey, anyone that fits your clothes is not starving."
The husband is now in hospital recovering from a head injury.
Late one night Jack takes a shortcut through the cemetery, hearing a tapping sound he becomes a bit scared and quickens his pace.
The tapping gets louder and Jack is now scared out of his wits.
Then he notices a man chiseling a tombstone.
"Thank goodness!" said Jack to the man. "You gave me the fright of my life. Why are you working so late?"
"They spelt my name wrong"
TRUTH!!!:(:o:(

Been there, Done that! Wanna see them? LOL
I can't believe I got fired from the calendar factory.
All I did was take a day off.
A woman walked into a bar in Texas and spotted a man wearing cowboy boots propped up on a table as leaned back drinking his beer.
He had the biggest feet she had ever seen so she asked him "Is it true what they say about men with big feet."
The cowboy grinned and said "You'll have to come back to the bunkhouse with me to find out."
The lady agreed and after an hour or so dallying with him she got up, got dressed and reached in her purse and pulled out 2 $100 bills and tossed them on the table.
The man said "I'm honored but I'm not a gigolo and that's not necessary."
The woman replied "Yes it is. Go buy yourself a pair of boots that fit."
You Americans!
You're American when you go into the bathroom, and American when you come out.
But what are you when you're in the bathroom?
European.
Go up to a tree and take a leak - If your pee attracts ants, you have diabetes,
If it dries fast, your sodium is high,
If it smells like meat, your cholesterol is high,
If you forgot to unzip, it's Alzheimer's,
If you missed the tree, Parkinson's
If you peed on your shoes, enlarged prostate, and If you can't smell it, Covid-19.
Wouldn't this knot your knickers!!

what make is that "starter in bell housing" from?
I expect it's Photo Shopped.
- On another note....
Attachment 74683
If that starter is photo bombed then it's a damn nice job.
It's a novel solution to heat soak.
