      <![CDATA[<p>...reducing our carbon bootprint by recycling old jokes.</p>

<p>Although, since some of you weren't paying attention when it first appeared, it'll be a *new* joke to you. </p>

<blockquote>
Two Arab terrorists are in the locker room taking a shower (well -- this *is* a joke) after their bomb making class, when one notices the other has a huge cork stuck betwixt his nether cheeks.

<p>“If I do not offend your tender sensibilities," says the observer, "that cork looks very uncomfortable. Why do you not remove it?"</p>

<p>“I regret that I cannot," laments the observed. "It is permanently emplaced within my sphincter."</p>

<p>"I do not understand," says the observer. "How came it to be there?"</p>

<p>The observed replies, "I shall endeavor to explain. I was walking along the riverbank and I tripped over a lamp of curious and ancient design. There was a puff of smoke and then a huge old man garbed in raiment of the flag of the <em>Amriki</em> with a white beard and top hat came boiling out. He said, "I am Uncle Sam, the Genie. I can grant you one wish."</p>

<p>I said, "No sh*t?"<br />
</blockquote></p>

<p>Dedicated to the AQI-types hunkered down in Mosul. </p>

<p>P.S. Go take a nice stroll along the riverbank to settle your nerves...</p>]]>

        BillT and Cassie,

Do me one favor, keep your sense of humor, it is the best thing in the world for me.  Not all of the time, but when it strikes, let it fly. It is the best medication in the world for me. The big thing is I don&apos;t need to get some [REDACTED] doctor&apos;s permission or perscription to take it. The neat thing is my doctors agree.

Enjoy the Super Bowl and your weekend,
Grumpy

        Chief, that is Divinely funny, as I think that the Deity has a very low and nasty sense of humor, similar to yours and mine. I try not to piss Him off enough that I get to be the main victim in one of His practical jokes.

        Grumpy -- Answer, my position varies in direct proportion to the accuracy of the incoming fire. 

And the caliber.

Note that Cassie used her 9mm smiley-con and omitted the flounce, so it wasn&apos;t *serious* incoming.

        BillT,

&quot;That is awful.&quot;

Question, wouldn&apos;t that depend upon your position?

        I woke up after sleeping about 3 hours and  read your joke. I like it, but of course, I have a sick sense of humor.  I&apos;ve got an old oak tree in my front yard, that&apos;s over 300 years old, it&apos;s diameter is 4 feet at 4 feet off the ground. At the base of the canopy, the width is about 135 feet, all solid. Now when you come to some of YOUR Politicians, we can take that old oak and use it to clean their teeth the long way. One problem, they would never feel it. SIR, it was a great story. It even brought some laughter to a GRUMPY old vet.

Have a great day,
Grumpy
