A couple who work at the circus go to an adoption agency.
Social workers there raise doubts about their suitability.
The couple produces photos of their 50 foot motor-home, which is equipped with a beautiful nursery.
The social workers then are doubtful about the education that the child would get.

"We've arranged for a full-time tutor who will teach the child all the usual subjects along with French, Mandarin and computer skills."
Then there are doubts about raising a child in a circus environment.
"Our nanny is an expert in paediatric welfare and diet."
The social workers are finally satisfied.
They ask, "What age child are you hoping to adopt?"
"It doesn't really matter, as long as he fits in the cannon"

After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, Canadian scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 200 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 150 years ago.

Not to be outdone by their neighbours, in the weeks that followed, an American Archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story was published in the New York Times:...
"American archaeologists, finding traces of 250-year-old copper wire, have concluded that their Ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 50 years earlier than the Canadians".

One week later, the British authorities reported the following:

"After digging as deep as 30 feet in North Yorkshire, Jack Arkwright, a self-taught Archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing at all. Jack has therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Britain had already gone wireless."

Just makes you proud to be British, doesn’t it!!

Wife...."Do you drink beer?"

Husband...." Yes!"

"So, how many beers a day?"

Husband, " 3 beers a day, $5 a beer"

"And how long have you been doing "

"20 years, ever since you became my wife. You know that !"

Wife," I let you spend $5400 per year on beer"

"Yes, I suppose you do, my love"

"So, not accounting for inflation, in the last 20 years you've drunk away $108,000 of beers, how could you waste that much. That's enough for a small 2 seat  plane"

Husband, " Hang on a minute....you're tea total. AND DONT DRINK BEER,! "

Wife, " Yeah....so damn what!"

Husband, " Where's your damn plane?!"

Ben was in the dog box good and proper this time. Forgot the wedding anniversary again. His wife was livid and demanded "There had better be something in the driveway tomorrow morning that does 0 to 200 in less than six seconds or your life won't be worth living!" Ben got up early the next morning and left for work. His wife got up later and looked out at the driveway. There was a smallish package sitting there in the middle of the driveway so she went and retrieved it and brought it into the house. Once all the packaging was removed Ben's wife found a brand new set of bathroom scales. Ben has been missing for some time.
