A young girl on a years training course in South Africa recently received a "Dear John" letter from her boyfriend back home. It read as follows:
Dear Mary, the distance between us is just too great. I must admit that I have cheated on you twice, since you've been gone, and it's not fair to either of us. I'm sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent to you.
Love, John.
Mary, with hurt feelings, asked her colleagues for any snapshots they could spare of their boyfriends, brothers, ex-boyfriends, uncles, cousins etc. In addition to the picture of John, Mary included all the other pictures of the pretty lads she had collected from her buddies. There were 57 photos in that envelope....along with this note:
Dear John, I'm so sorry, but I can't quite remember who the f**k you are. Please take your picture from the pile, and send the rest back to me.
Take Care, Mary
A woman decides to have a facelift for her 50th birthday. She spends $15,000 and feels pretty good about the results. On her way home, she stops at a news stand to buy a newspaper. Before leaving, she says to the clerk, "I hope you don't mind my asking, but how old do you think I am?"
"About 32," is the reply.
"Nope! I'm exactly 50," the woman says happily.
A little while later she goes into McDonald's and asks the countergirl the very same question.
The girl replies, "I'd guess about 29."
The woman replies with a big smile, "Nope, I'm 50."
Now she's feeling really good about herself. She stops in a drug store on her way down the street. She goes up to the counter to get some mints and asks the clerk this burning question.
The clerk responds, "Oh, I'd say 30."
Again she proudly responds, "I'm 50, but thank you!"
While waiting for the bus to go home, she asks an old man waiting next to her the same question.
He replies, "I'm 78 and my eyesight is going. Although, when I was young, there was a sure-fire way to tell how old a woman was. It
sounds very forward, but it requires you to let me put my hands under your bra. Then, and only then can I tell you EXACTLY how old you are."
They were on the empty street until her curiosity gets the best of her. She finally blurts out, "What the hell, go ahead."
He slips both of his hands under her blouse and begins to feel around very slowly and carefully. He bounces and weighs each breast and he
gently pinches each nipple. He pushes her breasts together and rubs them against each other.
After a couple of minutes of this, she says, "Okay, okay...How old am I?"
He completes one last squeeze of her breasts, removes his hands, and says, "Madam, you are 50."
Stunned and amazed, the woman says, "That was incredible, how could you tell?"
"I was behind you in McDonald's."
Two Mexicans are stuck in the desert, wandering aimlessly and close to death
They are close to just lying down and waiting for the inevitable, when all of a sudden...
"Hey Pepe, do you smell what I smell? Ees bacon, I is sure of eet".
"Si, Luis, eet smells like bacon to meee".
So, with renewed strength, they struggle off up the next sand dune, and there, in the distance, is a tree, just loaded with bacon.
There's raw bacon, dripping with moisture, there's fried bacon, back bacon, double smoked bacon...every imaginable kind of cured pig meat you can imagine!!
"Pepe, Pepe, we ees saved. Eees a bacon tree".
"Luis, are sure ees not a meerage? We ees in the desert, don'forget".
"Pepe, when deed you ever hear of a meerage that smeell of bacon?...ees no meerage, ees a bacon tree".
And with that. . . Luis races towards the tree. He gets to within 5 metres, Pepe following closely behind, when all of a sudden, a machine gun opens up, and Luis is cut down in his tracks. It is clear he is mortally wounded but, true friend that he is, he manages to warn Pepe with his dying breath.
"Pepe...go back man, you was right, ees not a bacon tree"
"Luis, Luis mi amigo...what ees eet?"
"Pepe...ees not a bacon tree.............
Ees.....
Ees.....
Ees.....
Ees, a Ham Bush"

Saw this on a Dane forum I frequent. Alot of it really is laugh out loud funny, especially if you are a Dane or large breed owner. Some of the things are along the same lines and become a little repetitive but still worth looking through for sure.

Excerpts from a Cat's Daily Diary
Day 983 of my captivity.
My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.
They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.
The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet.
Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a 'good little hunter' I am.
Bastards.
There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However,I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of 'allergies.' I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.
Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow -- but at the top of the stairs.
I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released -and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now..
the computer. They had been going at it for days, and frankly God was
tired of hearing all the bickering.
Finally fed up, God said, "THAT'S IT! I have had enough. I am going to set
up a test that will run for two hours, and from those results, I will
judge who does the better job."
So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away.
They moused.
They faxed.
They E-mailed.
They E-mailed with attachments.
They downloaded.
They did spreadsheets!
They wrote reports.
They created labels and cards.
They created charts and graphs.
They did some genealogy reports
They did every job known to man.
Jesus worked with heavenly efficiency and Satan was faster than hell.
Then, ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed
across the sky, thunder rolled, rain poured, and, of course, the power
went off.
Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in
the underworld.
Jesus just sighed.
Finally the electricity came back on, and each of them restarted their
computers. Satan started searching frantically, screaming:
"It's gone! It's all GONE! "I lost everything when the power went out!"
Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the
past two hours of work.
Satan observed this and became irate.
"Wait!" he screamed. "That's not fair! He cheated! How come he has all his
work and I don't have any?"
God just shrugged and said,
JESUS SAVES
When you have to visit a public loo there is invariably a line of women,
you smile politely and take your place, it finally gets to your turn, you
check for feet under the cubicle doors. Every one is occupied..... but
eventually a door opens and you dash in, nearly knocking down the woman
leaving the cubicle.
You get in to find the door won't latch. It doesn't matter, the wait has
been so long you are about to wet your knickers!!! You would hang your
handbag on a door hook, if there was one, but there isn't - so you
carefully, but quickly drape it around your neck, yank down your knickers,
and assume “The Position” whilst pressing one hand against the door to keep
it closed.
In this position your aging, toneless thigh muscles begin to shake. You'd
love to sit down, but you certainly hadn't taken time to wipe the seat or
lay toilet paper on it, so you hold "The Position."
To take your mind off your trembling thighs for a moment when you reach for
horror of horrors an empty toilet paper dispenser. Your thighs start to
shake more. You remember the tiny tissue that you blew your nose on
yesterday - the one that's still in your handbag which is now burning your
neck & shoulders with the weight. So you contort your arm into a very
unnatural position and start to fumble around in the deep dark depths of
your handbag for that small crumpled 'used' tissue.
Someone pushes your door and because the latch doesn't work and your hand
is pressed against it you lose your balance and start to topple backward.
"Occupied!" you scream and drop the precious, tiny, crumpled tissue you had
only just retrieved with your index finger into an unknown puddle on the
floor.......as if that isn't enough your legs give way and gravity pulls you
down ...... down ..... directly onto the TOILET SEAT. It is wet, of
course, you bolt up, knowing all too well that it's too late.
Your bare bottom has made contact with every imaginable germ & life form
that lives on the uncovered seat. By this time, the automatic sensor on the
back of the toilet is so confused that it flushes, propelling a stream of
water like a fire hose into the bowl which sprays a fine mist of water that
covers your bum and runs down your legs along with the various life forms
and down into your dishevelled knickers which have now dropped down to your
ankles. The flush somehow sucks everything down with such force that you
grab onto the empty toilet paper dispenser for fear of being dragged in
too.
At this point, you give up. You're soaked by the spewing water and the wet
toilet seat. You're exhausted. You try to wipe yourself with a piece of gum
wrapper you found in your pocket and then slink out inconspicuously to the
sinks. You can't figure out how to operate the taps [new obviously from
bath-store.com/martha's whatever], so you run your hands underneath it
grateful for the 2 drops there, then around the basin itself. Then you go
to the hand blower, which, yes you've guessed it, doesn't work.
You are no longer able to smile politely to the women, but there is an
unspoken understanding between you all. A kind soul at the very end of the
line points out that you have a piece of toilet paper trailing from your
shoe. (Where was that when you NEEDED it??) You yank the paper from your
shoe, plonk it in the woman's hand and tell her warmly, "Here, you just
might need this."
As you exit, you spot your man, who has long since entered, used, and left
the Men's. Annoyed, he asks, "What took you so long, and why is your
handbag hanging around your neck?"
This is dedicated to women everywhere who deal with public loo's. It also
finally explains to the men what really does take us so long and also
answers their other commonly asked question about why women go to the loo
in pairs. It's so the other one can hold the door, hang onto your bag and
hand you Kleenex under the door!
Jack was about to marry Jill and his father took him to one side "When
I married your mother, the first thing I did when we got home was take
off my trousers," he said. "I gave them to your mother and told her to
put them on.
When she did, they were enormous on her and she said to me that she
couldn't possibly wear them, as they were too large.
I told her, "Of course they're too big. I wear the trousers in this
family and I always will. Ever since that day, we have never had a
single problem."
Jack took his father's advice and as soon as he got Jill alone after
the wedding, he did the same thing; took off his trousers, gave them to
Jill and told her to put them on.
Jill said that the trousers were too big and she couldn't possibly
wear them.
"Exactly," replied Jack. "I wear the trousers in this relationship and
I always will. I don't want you to forget that."
Jill removed her knickers and gave them to Jack. "Try these on," she
said, so he tried them on but they were too small.
"I can't possibly get into your knickers," said Jack. "Exactly,"
replied Jill. "And if you don't change your f***ing attitude, you never
will."
