A blond, driving along in her new sports car suddenly cuts in front of a tandem-trailer...

..., making the driver stamp on the brakes to avoid an accident. He roared past her, pulled up in front of the sports, and stormed out of the cab. "Did you see what you did back there?" He roared. You cut me off. You nearly caused me to ram right into you. What have you got to say to that, eh!"

"Me? Oh, my, I'd never do a thing like that. I'm a good driver."

"Oh yeah? Well, watch this." He took a piece of chalk from his pocket and drew a circle on the road near the rig. "Now you stand in this circle, see, and you DO NOT MOVE. Got it?"

"Sure," says the blond, and stands in the ring.

The driver grabs a crowbar from the truck and smashes the windscreen on the sports.

Turning round, he yells "There. That'll…" But he can't continue, as the blond is giggling, then laughing out loud at his expression.

Taking no lip, he smashes the other windows; again she's laughing fit to kill. So he attacks the bodywork and soon the car's a wreck. "Look what you made me do," he screams at her. "Your car's a wreck. What do you say to that?"

Still giggling, she says, "Oh you didn't see me, but I was jumping out of the circle when you weren't looking."

A school teacher was quizzing her students.

"Johnny, who signed the Declaration of Independence?"

He said, "Darn if I know."

She was a little put out by his swearing, so she told him to go home and to bring his father with him when he came back. Next day, the father came with his son, sat in the back of the room to observe.

She started back in on her quiz and finally got back to the boy. "Now, Johnny, I'll ask you again. Who signed the Declaration of Independence?"

"Well, heck, teacher," Johnny said, "I told you I didn't know."

The father jumped up in the back, pointed a stern finger at his son, and said, "Johnny, if you signed that darn thing, heck, you darn well better admit it!"

Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica - where do they go?

Wonder no more!!!

It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which lives an extremely ordered and complex life.

The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as well as maintaining a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life.

If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into and buried.

The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:

"Freeze a jolly good fellow."

"Then they kick him in the ice hole."

You really didn’t believe that I know anything about penguins, did you!

Excuses, excuses...
  • Philadelphia's Highway Patrol officers hear all kinds of creative excuses that drivers give for speeding. Here are some of the officers' favourites. By the way, none of them worked.
  • A man told the officer he was rushing to the hospital because had been stung by a bee, and was allergic. "There's the bee right there," he said, pointing to his dashboard. The officer looked. The bee was not only dead, but in a advanced state of decomposition.
  • A man was doing 70 mph on the shoulder of I-95, avoiding the bumper-to-bumper traffic. After a third of a mile, he was stopped by an officer. He jumped out of the car, brushing off his pants, and told the cop he had dropped a cigarette on his lap. "I was looking for a place to park," he explained.
  • A speeder said that he and his wife were trying to have a baby. "My wife is ovulating," he told the officer. "I have to get home right now."
  • An officer stopped a man doing 80 mph. When he asked the driver whether he had seen the speed-limit signs, the man responded, "I went by them so fast I probably missed them."
  • A man going south on I-95 was stopped near Washington Avenue doing 79 mph. "My engine misses, and I'm trying to clean out the carburettor," he told the officer. For good measure, he added, "If I don't go this fast, my car won't go at all."
