I found that I have been happier in the mornings since I changed from coffee to orange juice.
My doctor explained that it is the vitamin C and natural sugars,
but I really think it is the Vodka.

I hope when the day finally comes that I choke to death on a Gummy Bear that my wife has the decency to notify Permies that I was killed by a bear.

A man walks into the corner café and takes a seat at the bar.  He looks over at the guy next to him and sees that he's a complete wreck.  His shirt is wrinkled, his hair a mess, 5 o'clock shadow, and he's drinking a cup of black coffee the size of a jacuzzi.

"Wow, friend.  What ever happened to you?"

The man replies, "Let me tell you, I've got the worst boss in the world.
He's got me working ten, twelve, even fourteen-hour days -- and on top of that, I'm always on call even on my rare day off.
The nastiest jobs in the company that nobody else wants always get dumped on me.
He's constantly on my case, guilting me about everything - I can't even take 5 minutes to check my social messages without him right there telling me I need to get back to work.
To top it all off, he's emotionally abusive, always telling me I'll never go anywhere and what I'm working on will never succeed."

"You know, if it was me, I'd stand up to that jerk and tell him just where to stick it!"

"Well, I'd sure like to, but I can't.
I'm self-employed."

(Saw this one on the RedGreen show the other night and it cracked me up.
Well, technically he's not wrong, I guess. LOL!)

"So... for the next step in the build, you're going to want to measure and mark a line at 2 inches.
Or, if you're on the metric system, simply mark 2 inches worth of centimeters." -- RedGreen

The ring leader hired the best safe cracker for their bank job...
In criminal circles he was known to crack any safe and the police never caught him. When the day of the heist came, they entered the bank, secured the building, corralled the hostages in the bank managers office and the safe cracker proceeded to the locked vault.

After a few quick inspections, the safe cracker sat down, pulled off his shoes and socks, and started manipulating the combination dial with this toes.

"Why are you wasting time like this?," the ring leader asked.

The safe cracker replied, "I'll have it open in a jiffy. This only takes me 5 extra seconds, but it really confuses the guys in the fingerprint lab."

Went for a walk past a farm with my new girlfriend and we saw dogs mating.
She said: "How does the male know when the female is ready for sex?"
I replied:  "He can smell she is ready. That's how nature works."
We then walked past a sheep field and the ram was mating the ewe.
Again, my girlfriend asked:  "How does the ram know when the ewe is ready for sex?"
I replied:  "It's nature.  He can smell she is ready."
We then went past another pasture and the bull was mating with the cow.
My girlfriend said:  "This is odd.  They are really going at it.  
Surely the bull can't smell when she is ready?"
I said:  "Oh, yes; it's nature. All animals can smell when the female is ready for sex."
Anyway, after the walk, I dropped her at home and kissed her goodbye.  
She said:  "Take care and get yourself tested for Covid-19."
Surprised, "Why do you say that?"  I asked her.
She replied:  "You seem to have lost your sense of smell."

I was reading where chimpanzees share over 98 % of their gene's with humans.

I was surprised because their legs are shorter and I wouldn't think they'd fit.

I don't drink alchohol.
I drink distilled spirits.

Therefore I am not an alchoholic,
I am spiritual.

I am really proud of the minister of our little country church.  The paint was peeling, so he hired a couple of guys to paint it.  Apparently they were inexperienced  because they didn’t order enough paint.   They thought they would get by when they painted the front of the church as well as they could and thinned the paint as they moved to the back.  

When the reverend first drove up he commented on the quality of the work, but as he walked to the back of the church he became visibly upset.  Finally he exploded, “ Repent you Thinners!  And thin no more!”

We got hit with a few inches of snow, so I picked up a few extra bucks plowing out the parking lots for a few churches. Anyway, as I was finishing up the parking lot for the Baptist Church, I realized there was a car behind me.  So I got out to see if I could help.  The kid behind the wheel explained his father told him that if he ever got lost to follow the snowplow.  So, I told him he was welcome to follow me over to the Methodist Church.

A priest, a rabbit and a minister walk into a bar.
The bartender asks the rabbit, "What will you have?"
The rabbit answers, "I have no idea. The only reason I am here is because of Autocorrect."

A girl was visiting her  friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were.

The friend responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex.

Her friend said, 'Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?'

'Why not,' answered the friend, 'They're watch dogs'!

I've been feeling down, so I bought some new socks
Cause you know what they say:

A hat warms the head

A coat warms the body

But socks warm the sole.
