3. Two peanuts walk into a bar, and one was a salted.

A skeleton walks into a bar; orders a beer and a mop.

A horse walks into a bar. The bartender says, “Hey bud, why the long face?”

What do you do with an elephant with 3 balls?

Walk him, and pitch to the giraffe.

My turn.

A string walks into a bar. The bartender says, “Get out of here, we don’t serve your kind in here.”  
So the string goes back out. He ruffles his ends all up, and ties a knot in himself. He goes back in, and the bartender says, “Hey, aren’t you that string that just walked in here a few minutes ago?”  
And the string says,

“I’m afraid not.”

Nice jokes, everyone. Here’s how it’s really done. ( **Lissla** , you may want to prevent your husband from reading these.)

-What’s red and looks like a bucket?

A red bucket.

-What’s blue and looks like a bucket?

A red bucket in disguise.

-Why should you bring a bottle of cough syrup to a funeral?

To make the coffin stop.

-Why did the chicken go to the séance?

To get to the Other Side.

Today I have to wrap up my presentation and hand it in so they can have them all ready by tomorrow morning. Should be fun. Speaking of fun, here’s a pun.

> [@Pun of the Day](#):
>
> Twenty months. Twenty months at sea, and Richard spent **every day** on the lifeboat. Working on the lifeboat, reading in the lifeboat, sleeping in the lifeboat, doing I-don’t-even-want-to-know-what-else in the lifeboat. Lifeboat, lifeboat, lifeboat - all the time in the lifeboat. One day about a month into the trip, Susan said to me, “Where’s Richard?”  
> I said, “Where else? He’s off playing with his dinghy.”

Warning, this one is off-color, and probably offensive to religious folks. But it’s one of my favorites, and I just can’t resist right now.

How do you get a nun pregnant?

Fuck her.

I’m very sorry I did that to you.

I had the dentist appointment this morning, so I’m numb all the way up to my nose. I hate the dentist.

Last night, I printed out a copy of the picture of Cricket in the hockey jersey, and took it by the team office after my appointment. They immediately hung it on the wall, and got a good laugh out of it. Also found out one of my favorite players is going to be back this season!!

Now I’m going to go sleep off the pain pill. Back later.

This is the silliest MMP I’ve ever been in! I loved the “woman with no arms and no legs in the river” one. I’ve never heard it before!

I have no jokes, alas.

I just dropped in to say hi, and try to keep up with this week’s MMP. It’s not too out of control yet…
