A man thought that he had Swine Flu, but it turned out to be a type of Avian Fly. In actual fact it was Budgie Flu and now he has been “Tweeted!”

This joke recently made the headlines courtesy of BT who suspended many of their workers over it;-
There are 3 Irishmen at the top of a cliff. The first one jumps holding on tight to a budgie, thinking he is "budgie-jumping."

The Policeman replies, "I am sorry sir, Mr. Blair is no longer the Prime Minister as I told you yesterday."

The old man replies, "Yes, of course I understand you, I just like to hear you keep saying it. Its very reassuring to hear you say that at the start of every day!!!!!"
"See you again tomorrow, Sir," says the Policeman with a grin.

An Irishman was terribly overweight, so his doctor put him on a diet. The Doctor told the man "I want you to eat regularly for 2 days, then skip a day, and repeat this procedure for 2 weeks. The next time I see you, you should have lost at least 5 pounds."

A man is exploring some ancient caves in the Middle East when his torch light sparkles on a shiny object. He gets closer to it and sees that it is an old lamp. Curious, he picks it up and rubs some of the dust off it. Hey Presto, a Genie pops out in a cloud of smoke.
The Genie says, "I will give you 3 wishes, but there is a catch. Everything I give you will be given to every politician in the World as well, but for them I will double the gift."
The man pauses a moment and then says, "I can live with that."
"OK then what is your first wish?" asks the Genie.
The man replies, "I want a million pounds in my bank account."
There is a flash and then the Genie says, "You have a million pounds in your bank account and all the politicians in the world have 2 million pounds in their bank accounts."
The man says, "I would like a beautiful young blonde wife for my second wish."
There is a flash and the Genies says You have a beautiful young blonde wife and all the politicians in the World have two each."
The Genie asks, "What would you like for your last wish?"

A man goes into hospital and he is definitely a contender for the Victor Meldrew Pain In The Arse Award. He makes a real nuisance of himself asking the nurses to fetch this and that for him while complaining all the time. In the end all the nurses try to avoid him if they can and only one nurse goes in to him regularly to fetch an carry for him. He moans at her constantly and makes her life a misery while he is making a long term recovery from his operation and subsequent infection. After two weeks of constant moaning the nurse goes into the patient and tells him that she wants to take his temperature. The man opens his mouth, but the nurse says she needs to take a rectal temperature reading so the man rolls over on to his tummy. The nurse moves to insert the thermometer and says that she will have to leave it in for a minute for the correct reading and that while the temperature is settling she has got something urgent to do but will be back in a minute.
The nurse departs leaving the man lying there on his tummy. The man suddenly realizes that the nurse has left the door ajar and he can hear laughter in the corridor as people are passing so he starts shouting for someone to shut the door.
A few minutes later a Doctor hears the commotion, enters the room and asks the man what is going on.
The man replies grumpily, "Haven't you ever seen anyone having their temperature taken like this before?"
The Doctor says, "No, not with a rose sticking out of their bottom!"

 

A grumpy, mean, miserable old man dies and goes to heaven. St. Peter meets him at the Pearly Gates and the man complains, "Why can't I go straight in, I've been waiting here ages?"
St. Peter replies, "Sorry, but we have to check everyone coming in here. What have you done that merits you entering Heaven? What good deeds have you done lately?"
The man moans and says, "You ought to know. You work for God. He knows everything. Hurry up and let me in I want to start enjoying Heaven."
"First you have to tell me of a good deed."
"Oh alright," grumbles the miserable man. "One month ago I gave 25 pence to a charity."
St. Peter looks it up in his big book and then phones the Angel Gabriel when he can't find the entry who tells him to ask the man if he can remember any other good deeds.
The miserable old man says, "You lot must be very incompetent if you can't find that entry. Anyway about 6 months ago I gave 25 pence to a beggar on the street when it was pouring down with rain. Now find that and hurry up about it because I have been waiting here long enough."
Again St. Peter looks in his book and can't find the entry. He phones the Angel Gabriel and asks what he should do. The Angel Gabriel replies, "Give him his 50 pence back and tell him to go to Hell!"

"Can I have some Irish sausages please?" asked the Irishman walking up to the counter.
The assistant looked at him and asked, 'Are you Irish?'
If I had asked for an Italian sausage would you ask me if I was Italian?' Demanded the Irishman indignantly. 'Or if I asked for German Bratwurst would you ask me if I was German?'
Then warming to his theme, he went on: 'Or if I asked you for a kosher hot dog would you ask me if I was Jewish? Or if I asked for a taco, would you ask me if I was Mexican? Would you?'
The assistant said, 'Well, no.'
Suitably encouraged by the success of his logic, the Irishman steps it up a gear.
"And if I asked you for frogs legs, would you ask me if I was French? What about Danish bacon, would you ask me if I was Danish?'
"Well no, I probably wouldn't" conceded the assistant.
So now bursting with righteous indignation, the Irishman says 'Well, alright then, why did you ask me if I'm Irish just because I asked for Irish sausages?'
The assistant replied: "Because you're in Homebase"

There are 4 passengers in a small private plane including Hilary Clinton, Mr Blair, a Priest and a ten year old boy. The plane is flying high over land when the pilot has a heart attack and dies. The passengers can only find 3 parachutes so they decide that someone will have to stay on the plane when it crashes. Mr Blair grabs a parachute, puts it on quickly and jumps saying, "I can't die because I am very important and Europe can't manage without me because I am the President of Europe."
Hilary Clinton grabs a pack and jumps next shouting behind her, "I am America's cleverest woman and most important person because I am going to be the next President of the USA."
The Priest says to the little boy, "Young man, your life is more important than mine, because you have your life in front of you and could become anything and I am only a humble Priest, so you had better take the last parachute."
The 10 year old boy says, "Don't, worry Father EVERYTHING will be all right, there are still two parachutes left, because America's cleverest woman and most important person grabbed my back-pack instead of a parachute when she jumped."

A man stayed in his house as a flood engulfed his town. Two men in a rowboat came to his house and offered to take him to safety. "No thank you", the man said. "God will help me."
As the waters rose, the man retreated to the second story of his
house. Now, two men in a motor-boat came by and offered to rescue him. Again, the man declined, saying, "No thank you, God will help me."
As the waters rose still higher, the man retreated again to the
rooftop of his house. A helicopter came by, and someone inside it threw down a rope, urging the man to grab it and be pulled up into the helicopter.
Once more, the man declined and said, "No thank you, God will help
me."
Whereupon a mighty voice called out to the man,
"You idiot! I sent you a rowboat, a motor-boat, and now a helicopter. What more do you want me to do?".

Exercise for people over 50......

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find you can hold this position for just a bit longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato sacks. Then try 50-lb potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute.

(I'm at this level.)

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks.

The spokesman for the group protests, so St Peter says he will have to seek advice from God on what to do. St Peter disappears to find God and comes back after a heated discussion with God. When he goes back to the Pearly Gates where he left the Liverpool football fans he finds them missing, so he returns immediately to God. "God," St Peter says, "When I went back to the Pearly Gates where I left the Liverpool football fans they were gone."
"What all 60 Liverpool fans?"
"No, the Pearly Gates!"

Two 90 year old men, Mike and Joe, have been friends all of their lives. When it's clear that Joe is dying, Mike visits him every day. One day Mike says, "Joe, we both loved football all our lives, and we played Sunday football together for so many years. Please do me one favour, when you get to Heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's football there."
Joe looks up at Mike from his death bed," Mike, you've been my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favour for you. Shortly after that, Joe passes on. At midnight a couple of nights later, Mike is awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to him, "Mike--Mike."
"Who is it? asks Mike sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?"
"Mike - - it's me, Joe."
"You're not Joe. Joe just died."
"I'm telling you, it's me, Joe," insists the voice."
"Joe! Where are you?"
"In heaven", replies Joe. "I have some really good news and a little bad news."
"Tell me the good news first," says Mike
"The good news," Joe says," is that there's football in heaven. Better yet, all of our old friends who died before us are here, too. Better than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always spring time and it never rains or snows. And best of all, we can play football all we want, and we never get tired."
"That's fantastic," says Mike. "It's beyond my wildest dreams! So what's the bad news?
Joe says "You're in the team on Tuesday"

3 lively young ladies were getting up to mischief and causing mayhem on a farm one fine Autumn day. One of the girls was Brunette, one Ginger and the other was a Blonde. The farmer had caught them playing in his hay barn and chased them out earlier in the morning. Later on he had seen the girls scrumping apples in his orchard and chased them across the fields and finally he cornered them in a large shed where he was storing a lot of sacks of potatoes. When he went into the building he was fuming and shouted out, "When I catch you I'll give you what for," but as he looked round all he could see were the potato sacks. Some of the sacks were obviously full of "tattys," but there were also several loose piles of empty sacks and no sight of the girls. He said to himself, "They must be hiding in these piles of  empty sacks."
The angry farmer kicked the first one with his foot and the Ginger girl hiding inside it said, "Meow, meow."
The farmer muttered, "That must be a cat in there."
He kicked the next sack and the Brunette girl inside said, "Woof, woof."
The farmer muttered, "That must be a dog in there."
He kicked the third sack and the Blonde girl hiding inside said, "Potatoes, potatoes."

Here is a query that a call centre received from a computer user.

The cursor has disappeared from my screen. what should I do?
Move the Mouse about and see if it comes back onto the screen.
Nothing happens the screen just stays blank.
The screen is blank. Do you mean it is black and not lit up?
Yes.
Is there a little light, usually red or green on the case of the Monitor at the bottom of the screen?
No.
Can you check that the leads are all plugged in tight to the back of the Monitor and Computer?
No.
No they aren't in or you can't check?
No I can't check because I'll fall of my chair if I try and look round the back.
Try moving the computer slowly and gently so that you can see.
I still can't see because it's too dark by the computer as there is only a tiny window on the other side of the room and it does not let in much light.
Get up and switch on the light so that you can see.
It does not work.
Is the bulb broken?
No.
Are the lights on in the houses round you.
No.
I know what the problem is. Have you got the boxes that the Computer came in?
Yes they are in the garage.
Go and fetch them and carefully pack it all away, then take all the boxes back to the shop where you bought it from.
Is it that serious? What shall I tell them at the shop?
Tell them that you are too bloody thick to own a Computer!

So that evening the pair go to the Chinese restaurant and order their meal. They eat the meal and then Al Capone gets up and shoots everybody in the restaurant and leaves. Outside the two men are talking and the henchman asks Al, "Why did you shoot up the place Al?"
Al Capone replies, "I looked up them Beans in the good food guide and it said, "Eat shoots and leaves." So that's what I does, I Eats, Shoots and Leaves."
