Why did the permaculturist cross the road?
To check the water flow on the other side
To identify the mushrooms growing there
To dig up a pretty flower and take it home
To take a cutting to root
To  pick up the neighbors bags of leaves
or if they were me: To dig through the neighbor's trash
:D

To look at their berm and play with a toad.

Did you hear about the mathematician that was afraid of negative numbers?

He'll stop at nothing to avoid them!

This was bad phrasing on my part four years ago when I was graduating high school.

Mom: "How many students are graduating with you?"
Me: "2,400 are graduating, but 400 will not be with us."
Mom: "What are you doing? Taking them out back and shooting them?"
Me: "No, they're graduating in the summer. We're graduating in the Spring."

A woman in labor suddenly shouted, “Shouldn’t!  Wouldn’t!  Couldn’t!  Didn’t!  Can’t!”

"Don't worry" the doctor said, "those are just contractions."

Suck Less: Where There's a William, There's a Way!

"The only lie told more often than "No, that looks totally cute on you" and "I got AIDS through oral" is "It gets better." Well, a lotta times it don't. Sometimes it just sucks less. But I promise you: where there's a Willam, there's a way."

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables when a voice in the dark said, "Jesus knows you're here."

He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off, and froze. When he heard nothing more, he shook his head and continued.

Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard "Jesus is watching you."

Startled, he shined his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.

"Did you say that?" he hissed at the parrot.

"Yes", the parrot confessed, then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you that Jesus is watching you."

The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?"

"Moses," replied the parrot.

"Moses?" the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird Moses?"

"The same kind of people who would name a Pit Bull Jesus."

“No, go ahead.” she replies. He stands, clears his throat, says “Plethora” and sits back down.

“Thank you.” the woman cries. “That means a lot."



A second man approached the widow and asked if he too could say a word.  She said "please do", to which he replied "bargain".

"Thank you" the woman said.  "That means a great deal."

For those of you who enjoy Weird Al, I suggest you look into the Canadian version - The Arrogant Worms.

Carrot Juice is Murder

Listen up brothers and sisters come hear my desperate tale
i speak of our friends of nature trapped in the dirt like a jail
vegetables live in oppression, served on our tables each night
this killing of veggies is madness, i say we take up the fight
salads are only for murderers, coleslaw's a fascist regime
don't think that they don't have feelings, just cause a radish can't scream
Chorus:
i've heard the screams of the vegetables (scream, scream, scream)
watching their skins being peeled (having their insides revealed)
grated and steamed with no mercy (burning off calories)
how do you think that feels (that it hurts really bad)
Carrot juice constitutes murder (and that's a real crime)
Greenhouses prisons for slaves (let my vegetables go)
it's time to stop all this gardening (it's dirty as hell)
let's call a spade a spade (is a spade is a spade is a spade)

Listening to Carrot Juice is Murder, good one!
I have a book that I have always liked : Oral Sadism and the Vegetarian Personality. It's parodies of proper psychological journal articles. The tile article has always amused me, being a long term vegetarian. It talks of how vegetarians are actually people who feel so inferior to everything, the only thing they superior enough to to feel safe venting their frustrations upon is vegetables. Long before being veg was mainstream, I fielded a lot of questions about why I would do it, what DO you eat then, etc. Sometimes I used the concepts in that article, claiming I was just a frustrated wuss that took out my hostility on something that couldn't fight back.

Scientifically, a raven has 17 primary wing feathers, the big ones at the end of the wing. They are called pinion feathers. A crow has 16. So the difference between a raven and a crow is only a matter of a pinion.
