And yet another one: I was driving across Alaska to deliver a truckload of coughdrops to a remote community. As I had a cough myself I’d snitched a packet of cough drops from my cargo and was keeping it in my shirt pocket.

My truck blew a tire. It was night and too dark to fix the tire. However, in the distance, on a hillside, I saw a cabin. I thought maybe I could spend the night there. I went to the cabin which proved to be abandoned. But never mind; I soon built a roaring fire in the fireplace and, using my coat as a pillow, went to sleep in front of the fire.

All was well…until the thud. I awoke and then there was another thud. And then I saw it. Coming out of the gloom in one of the dark corners of the cabin, it was a coffin. It moved towards me as I ran from it, around and around the room. It made no sound, just floated towards me as I tried to escape. I ran all over that cabin. I jumped over furniture but that thing wouldn’t quit chasing me. Finally I somehow got the door open and ran down the hill. You would think I had escaped then, but the coffin came down the hill after me.

I slipped on the snow and ice and the coffin was getting closer. In desperation I started climbing a pine tree. I never knew how fast I could climb until that day. But when I looked down, the coffin was quickly moving up the tree after me.

Then I remembered something. I reached into my shirt pocket, grabbed a coughdrop, and popped it into my mouth. And would you know? The coffin stopped!

I love it! That was a new one on me.

My favorite semi-random joke:

What’s the difference between a duck?  
One leg is the same as the other.  
And one to go with your name, **Go You Big Red Fire Engine** :

Me: Ask me if I’m a firetruck.  
You: Are you a firetruck?  
Me: Yes, I am. Now ask me if I’m an ambulance.  
You: Are you an ambulance?  
Me: No, you idiot. I jus told you I’m a firetruck.  
And this one best told shortly, but not immediately after:

Me: Ask me if I’m a strawberry.  
You: Are you a strawberry?  
Me: (with a totally blank look) No.

_Disclaimer: The above jokes are much funnier if told after about 72 hours of sleep deprivation and obscene amounts of coffee._

My husband, a researcher, usually goes to the gym, showers and gets dressed there, then goes to work. Instead of going straight to the office one day this week, he came home, explaining that he’d forgotton to bring a belt. I told him he could have just explained to his coworkers that they’d won the “No Belt Peak Surprise.”  
A columnist wrote a little piece in our newspaper about how there are more swingers in our Bible Belt town than you might expect. He missed a great opportunity to coin a collective noun (you know, a “flock of seagulls,” a “pride of lions” etc.) and call our town a “hotbed of swingers.”

I remember when they were first planning the state quarters. My then SO (now hubby) was telling me about it and how he thought it was pretty cool. I was not very impressed, figuring the government has way more important stuff to focus on. He said “I guess you’re not an agent of change, huh?”

GROAN! By the way, I got him a little folder at Wal-Mart and he is now collecting all of the quarters 😉

In the tense moments before his company’s first battle, a private realizes he’s missing his gun. He asks his captain what he should do. The captain, being a busy guy that didn’t particularly like the private, gives him a gun-shaped stick and begins to walk away.

The private asks, “how do I use it?”

The captain says, “Just point it at them and say ‘bangity-bang-bang,’ if you need to use the bayonnet, say ‘stabbity-stab-stab.’”

The battle begins and the enemy starts advancing on the private’s position. He nervously raises the gun and points it at his nearest opponent. He says, “bangity-bang-bag,” and suddenly the enemy soldier is hit and falls down. Excited, the private begins shooting all over.

“bangity-bang-bang”  
“bangity-bang-bang”

But the enemies are getting too close. One runs toward the private, so he pokes him with the stick and says “stabbity-stab-stab.” It works! The enemy is ripped to shreds.

The private continues to fight with a “stabbity-stab-stab” and “bangity-bang-bang.”

Pretty soon, there’s only one enemy solider left on the field. The private takes careful aim at him and says “bangity-bang-bang.”

Nothing happens.

He tries again, “bangity-bang-bang.”

Nothing.

So he runs up to the guy and pokes him yelling, “stabbity-stab-stab.”

Nothing.

Then the enemy soldier steps on the private, completely obliterating him. The enemy soldier says “tankity-tank-tank.”

😛

A man walks into a bar. On the wall, there’s a sign that says, “Ham sandwiches: $2, Turkey sandwiches: $5, Handjobs: $10”. He turns to the bartender and says, “Excuse me? Are you the one who gives the handjobs?” She replies proudly, “Why yes, that would be me!” He says, “Well, wash your hands, I want a ham sandwich.”

Little Timmy is getting ready to mow the lawn. He needs to put gas in the lawnmower so he gets the gas can out and has just unscrewed the lid when the phone rings. He runs in to answer the phone and when he comes out he discovers that his dog has knocked over the can of gasoline and is busy drinking its contents.

“Stop,” yells Timmy, running towards the dog. Suddenly the dog takes off running down the street. Timmy chases it. The dog runs around and around the block, with Timmy trying to catch it.

Timmy is near exhaustion when suddenly the dog keels over and lies motionless. “Spot! Wake up!” yells Timmy. The dog doesn’t move. Timmy picks it up and carries it to a nearby vet’s office.

“Is my dog dead?” sobs Timmy.

The vet glances at the dog and says “No. Looks to me like he just ran out of gas.”
