This was her first time to the city, so she wanted to see the Capitol Building. Unfortunately, she couldn't find it, so she asked a police officer for directions. "Excuse me, officer," the blonde said, "how do I get to the Capitol Building?" The officer said, "Wait here at this bus stop for the number 54 bus. It'll take you right there." The blonde thanked the officer and he drove off. Three hours later the police officer came back to the same area, and sure enough, the blonde was still waiting at the same bus stop. The officer got out of his car and said, "Excuse me, but to get to the Capitol Building, I said to wait here for the number 54 bus. That was three hours ago. Why are you still waiting?" The blonde said, "Don't worry, officer, it won't be long now. The 45th bus just went by!" ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2000 08:25:06 -0500 From: Terry Galan Subject: Be Careful What You Wish For Dennis Rodman finds a bottle on the beach. He picks it up and suddenly a female genie appears. "Master, I may grant you one wish", says the genie. "Hey, bitch...don't you know who I am. I don't need no woman given' me nuffin," yells Rodman. The genie pleads, "but master I must grant you a wish or I will be returned to the bottle forever." Dennis thinks for a moment...grumbles about the inconvenience and says, "Okay, okay...I wanna wake up with three women in my bed in the morning." Giving the genie an evil glare he says "Just do it, and leave me alone." The genie, who was annoyed and hurt, says "So be it!" and disappears. The next morning, Dennis wakes up with Lorena Bobbitt, Tanya Harding and Hillary Clinton. His penis is gone, his leg is broken and he has no health insurance. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2000 08:40:15 -0500 From: Bill Stebbins Subject: Understanding Your Paycheck Note: This is best viewed using a fixed font like Courier Understanding Your Paycheck Gross pay: $1,222.02 Deductions: ----------- Income Tax: 244.40 Outgo Tax: 45.21 State Tax: 61.10 Interstate Tax: 5.89 County Tax: 6.11 City Tax: 12.22 Rural Tax: 4.44 Back Tax: 1.11 Front Tax: 1.16 Side Tax: 1.61 Up Tax: 2.22 Down Tax: 1.11 Tic-Tacs: 1.98 Thumbtacks: 3.93 Carpet Tacks: 0.98 Stadium Tax: 0.69 Flat Tax: 8.32 Surtax: 3.46 Ma'am Tax: 2.60 Parking Fee: 5.00 No Parking Fee: 10.00 F.I.C.A.: 81.88 T.G.I.F.: 9.95 Life Insurance: 5.85 Health Insurance: 16.23 Disability: 2.50 Ability: .25 Liability Insurance: 3.41 Dental Insurance: 4.50 Mental Insurance: 4.33 Reassurance: 0.11 Coffee: 6.85 Coffee Cups: 66.51 Calendar: 3.06 Floor Rental: 16.85 Chair Rental: 4.32 Desk Rental: 4.43 Union Dues: 5.85 Union Dont's: 3.77 Cash Advances: 0.69 Cash Retreats: 121.35 Overtime: 1.26 Undertime: 54.83 Eastern Time: 9.00 Central Time: 8.00 Mountain Time: 7.00 Pacific Time: 6.00 Grenwich Mean Time: 24.00 Bathroom Time: 6.05 Time Out: 12.21 Oxygen: 10.02 Water: 16.54 Electricity: 38.23 Heat: 51.42 Misc.: 144.38 Air Conditioning: 46.83 --------- Total, all Deductions $1,222.00 Take Home Pay: $0,000.02 And this is where the expression "just my 2 cents" came from.

"Get over it, buddy," he said. "It's not the end of the world." "Yeah, it's easy for you to say," answered his buddy. "But what if you came home one night and caught another man in bed with your wife?" The fella ponders for a moment, then says, "I'd break his cane and kick his seeing-eye dog in the ass."

Effective immediately, "no postings of a humorous or amusing nature may be transmitted electronically via the Internet, bulletin boards, FAX or any other means of electronic communications." According to Congressional spokesperson Ima Dredge, "We have confiscated names from so-called 'joke list maintainers' and those who post alleged humorous material, or even read alleged humour on Internet newsgroups." Ms. Dredge continued, "Idiotic humor has no place in cyberspace; that is reserved for politicians in Washington. Those clowns have the audacity to think they have some sort of right to freedom of speech, without repercussions. The Internet must be returned to the serious, listless place it once was. We have authorized the military to hunt down and delete anyone who has posted or read anything that might be considered funny." It has been reported throughout the US that military special forces squads have been conducting raids, dubbed 'Operation NoJoke,' throughout the day. General Darth Slader, in charge of 'user delete' operations, admitted, "Sure, I like a good belly-laugh as much as the next guy, but Congress says it's illegal now when mixed with computers. So, we've got a job to do." The General added, "This is sure a hellofa lot easier than trying to take out guys with weapons. Just a bunch of computer geeks; like shooting fish in a barrel. We've developed 'Smart Oriented Bombs' (SOB) which can be sent through e-mail to suspected jokers; got the idea from the Unabomber. When they pick up their mail, their modem explodes, taking out the system, and hopefully the user. Neat, clean and untraceable." Local authorities have reported a rash of exploding computers and military raids. It appears joke-list providers have been especially hard hit, but more cases of average joke readers are beginning to surface. Several renegade jokesters have moved underground and been able to avoid the military slaughter. You may receive this notice before it's too late. DO NOT read any jokes from the Internet! If someone tries to tell you a joke, just say NO. If someone asks you "Why did the chicken cross the road?" reply that you don't know -- it's a trick question. Delete any humorous material from your computer and backups. Do not laugh, or even smile while sitting at your computer. Remember, there may be an SOB with your name on it. ...[Transmission Interrupted]... ---------------------------------------- (from Humournet) ************************** They laughed when I told them I wanted to be a comedian...
