Friday humour - March 15, 2013
Gussius @ Bluehaze
This week, residents of Australia’s capital, Canberra celebrate its 100th
birthday party while the rest of the country wonders why it doesn’t act its
age.
The phrase “icy dirtballs” might conjure up a mental image of politicians,
but this week if you look to the sky, there may be two naked-eye comets
visible in 2013 depending on where you view.
Comet PANSTARRS is currently making its appearance in the western skies of
the northern hemisphere just after twilight. Comet ISON may become a
spectacular naked-eye comet later this year.
As comet-hunter David Levy once famously said on comet predictability:
Comets are like cats; they have tails, and they do precisely what they
want. The political parallel is obvious again.
Contributors this week include Anonymous3, Arfermo, Burnout, Cartographer
Chris, Wally, Whizzbang,
Wronknee, Duke of Barsinov, Sack and anon of course.

Catholic Hairdryer
In parochial school students are taught that lying is a sin.
However, instructions also advised that using a bit of imagination was OK
to express the truth differently without lying.
Below is a perfect example of those Teachings:
Getting a Hairdryer Through Customs.....
An attractive young woman on a flight from Ireland asked the Priest beside
her, "Father, may I ask a favor?"
"Of course child. What may I do for you?"
"Well, I bought my mother an expensive hair dryer for her birthday.
It is unopened but well over the Customs limits and I'm afraid they'll
confiscate it. Is there any way you could carry it through customs for me?
Hide it under your Robes perhaps?"
"I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you, I will not lie."
"With your honest face, Father, no one will question you."
When they got to Customs, she let the priest go first.
The official asked, "Father, do you have anything to declare?"
"From the top of my head down to my waist I have nothing to declare."
The official thought this answer strange, so asked, "And what do you have
to Declare from your waist to the floor?"
"I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which
is, to date, unused."
Roaring with laughter, the official said, "Go ahead, Father. Next please!"

Origins of famous sayings:
TAKE SOMEBODY UNDER YOUR WING
In Luke 12:34 Jesus laments that he wished to gather the people of
Jerusalem as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings but Jerusalem was not
willing.
TAKEN ABACK
If the wind suddenly changed direction a sailing ship stopped moving
forward. It was 'taken aback', which was a bit of a shock for the sailors.
TAWDRY
This is a corruption of St Audrey because cheap jewellery was sold at St
Audrey's fair in Ely,
Cambridgeshire.
THORN IN MY SIDE
This comes from the Bible. In 2 Corinthians 12:7 Paul states that he was
given a 'thorn in my flesh' to prevent him becoming proud. We are not told
what the 'thorn' was, perhaps it was some form of illness.
THROUGH THICK AND THIN
This old saying was once 'through thicket and thin wood'. It meant making
your way through a dense wood and through one where trees grew more thinly.
THROW DOWN THE GAUNTLET
In the Middle Ages a gauntlet was the glove in a suit of armour. Throwing
down your gauntlet was a way of challenging somebody to a duel.
TONGUE IN CHEEK
In the 18th century sticking your tongue in your cheek was a sign of
contempt. It is not clear how speaking with your tongue in your cheek took
on its modern meaning.
TOUCH AND GO
This old saying probably comes from ships sailing in shallow waters where
they might touch the seabed then go. If so, they were obviously in a
dangerous and uncertain situation.
TOUCH WOOD
In Celtic times people believed that benevolent spirits lived in trees.
When in trouble people knocked on the tree and asked the spirits for help.
HAVE NO TRUCK WITH
Truck originally meant barter and is derived from a French word 'troquer'.
Originally if you had no truck with somebody you refused to trade with him
or her. It came to mean you refused to have anything to do with them.
TRUE BLUE
This phrase was originally true as Coventry blue as the dyers in Coventry
used a blue dye that lasted and did not wash out easily. However the phrase
became shortened.
TURN THE OTHER CHEEK
Jesus told his followers not to retaliate against violence. In Luke 6:29 he
told them that if somebody strikes you on one cheek turn the other cheek to
him as well.
TURN OVER A NEW LEAF
This means to make a fresh start. It mean a leaf or page of a book.
TURNED THE CORNER
Ships that had sailed past the Cape of Good Hope or Cape Horn were said to
have 'turned the corner'.

1910 Ford
Make sure you read all the statistics under the photo.
This has only been 103 years ago...Amazing!!!

The year is 1910, over one hundred years ago. What a difference a century
makes!
Here are some statistics for the Year 1910:
***********************************
The average life expectancy for men was 47 years.
Fuel for this car was sold in drug stores only.
Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub.
Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone.
There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads.
The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph.
The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower !
The average US wage in 1910 was 22 cents per hour.
The average US worker made between $200 and $400 per year.
A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year,

year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year.
More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME.
Ninety percent of all Doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION!
Instead, they attended so-called medical schools, many of which were
condemned in the press AND the government as 'substandard.'

Eighteen percent of households had at least one full-time servant or

There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE U.S.A. !
I am now going to forward this to someone else without typing it myself.
From there, it will be sent to others all over the WORLD...all in a matter
of seconds!
Try to imagine what it may be like in another 100 years.

A good Bloke.....:
The Missus and I walked past a swanky new restaurant last night.
"Did you smell that food, it smelt incredible?" she said.
Being the good Aussie bloke that I am, I thought :
"Bugger it, I'll give her a treat !"
So we walked past it again!

A tall tale and true from the legendary past :
Researchers studying human s*xuality and practices throughout the ages have
discovered the following fact:
In 1272, the Arab Muslims invented the condom, using a goat's lower
intestine.
In 1873, the British refined the idea by taking the intestine out of the
goat first.

S*X ON MARS:
The year is 2222 and Charlie and Maureen land on Mars after acc*mulating
enough Frequent Flier miles.
They meet a Martian couple and are talking about all sorts of things.
Charlie asks if Mars has a stock market, if they have laptop computers, how
they make money, etc.
Finally, Maureen brings up the subject of s*x.
'Just how do you guys do it?' asks Maureen.
The Martian responds, 'Pretty much the way you do.'
A discussion ensues and finally the couples decide to swap partners for the
night and experience one another... Maureen and the male Martian go off to
a bedroom where the Martian strips... He's got only a teeny,
weenie member about half an inch long and just a quarter-inch thick.
'I don't think this is going to work,' says Maureen...
'Why?' he asks. 'What's the matter?'
'Well,' she replies, 'it's just not long enough to reach me!'
'No problem,' he says, and proceeds to slap his forehead with his palm.
With each slap of his forehead, his member grows until it's quite
impressively long.
'Well,' she says, 'that's quite impressive, but it is still narrow.'
'No problem,' he says, and starts pulling his ears. With each pull,
his member grows wider and wider until the entire measurement is extremely
exciting to the woman.
'Wow!' she exclaims, as they fell into bed and made mad passionate love.
The next day the couples rejoin their other partners and go their separate
ways. As they walked along, Charlie asks, 'Well, was it any good?'
'I hate to say it,' says Maureen, 'but it was wonderful. How about you?'
'It was horrible,' he replies. 'All I got was a headache ... She kept
slapping my forehead and pulling my ears.'
IF YOU DON'T LAUGH AT THIS, YOU ARE BEYOND HOPE!!!

The Kiwis:
A Queensland Tourist visiting New Zealand for the first
time hired a car to travel to both North & South Islands.
On his way to the south Island he observed a bloke in a
paddock having s*x with a sheep.
The tourist was horrified to think this unacceptable
behaviour could occur in this educated country.
He was so disgusted he stopped at the nearby pub to sooth
his nerves.
Whilst at the bar he noticed a chap with one leg at the end
of the bar discreetly wanking himself.
The tourist was disgusted & said to the barmaid, "What the
hell is going on over here,
I've only been here for a couple hours & I've seen a bloke
screwing a sheep in the paddock & now this one legged bloke at the end of
the bar wanking himself off".
The barmaid replied, "Fair go mate, be reasonable - you
can't expect a man with only one leg to catch a sheep".

Art of rock balancing:

Hard to believe that he can do this without any help...
Michael Grab is an artist that has been 'rock balancing' since 2008. Much
of his recent work has been done around the Boulder, Colorado area. Grab
finds the process both spiritual and therapeutic. On his site
target=_blank>Click here Grab explains:
"The most fundamental element of balancing in a physical sense is finding
some kind of 'tripod' for the rock to stand on. Every rock is covered in a
variety of tiny to large indentations that can act as a tripod for the rock
to stand upright, or in most orientations you can think of with other
rocks.
By paying close attention to the feeling of the rocks, you will start to
feel even the smallest clicks as the notches of the rocks in contact are
moving over one another.
Parallel to the physical element of finding tripods, the most fundamental
non-physical element is harder to explain through words. In a nutshell, I
am referring to meditation, or finding a zero point or silence within
yourself.
Some balances can apply significant pressure on your mind and your
patience.
The challenge is overcoming any doubt that may arise."
On gravityglue you will find an extensive gallery of his work along with
videos, an in-depth interview and an active blog about his thoughts that
accompany his work.

Baby It's Cold Outside:

Icicles cling to oranges in a small grove, just after sunrise, in Seffner,
Florida. Temperatures in central
Florida dipped into the 20's overnight. Farmers spray water on their crops
to help keep them around 32 degrees, protecting them from possible freeze
damage.
A bike covered by snow is seen in front of the Guomo gothic cathedral in
downtown Milan, Italy
Cars are buried by snow near a residential area of Nome, Alaska
Icicles can be seen on the wing of a Delta Air Lines plane, as it is
sprayed with de-icing fluid, prior to take-
off at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, in Seattle. The Western
Washington region was hit with an ice storm that closed runways at the
airport and stranded hundreds of travellers, as flights were delayed or
cancelled.

Australian Poem:
Click here
They were funny looking buildings, that were
once a way of life,
If you couldn't sprint the distance, then you
really were in strife.
They were nailed, they were wired, but were
mostly falling down,
There was one in every yard, in every house, in
every town.
They were given many names, some were even
funny,
But to most of us, we knew them as the outhouse
or the dunny.
I've seen some of them all gussied up, with
painted doors and all,
But it really made no difference, they were
just a port of call.
Now my old man would take a bet, he'd lay an
even pound,
That you wouldn't make the dunny with them
turkeys hangin' round.
They had so many uses, these buildings out the
back,"
You could even hide from mother, so you
wouldn't get the strap.
That's why we had good cricketers, never mind
the bumps,
We used the pathway for the wicket and the
dunny door for stumps.
Now my old man would sit for hours, the smell
would rot your socks,
He read the daily back to front in that good
old thunderbox.
And if by chance that nature called sometime
through the night,
You always sent the dog in first, for there was
no flamin' light.
And the dunny seemed to be the place where
crawlies liked to hide,
But never ever showed themselves until you sat
inside.
There was no such thing as Sorbent, no tissues
there at all,
Just squares of well read newspaper, a hangin'
on the wall.
If you had some friendly neighbours, as
neighbours sometimes are,
You could sit and chat to them, if you left the
door ajar..
When suddenly you got the urge, and down the
track you fled,
Then of course the magpies were there to peck
you on your head.
Then the time there was a wet, the rain it
never stopped,
If you had an urgent call, you ran between the
drops.
The dunny man came once a week, to these
buildings out the back,
And he would leave an extra can, if you left
for him a zac.
For those of you who've no idea what I mean by
a zac,
Then you're too young to have ever had, a dunny
out the back.

The Fence Repair - Sounds Very Familiar...:
Click here Click here Click here
Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at
Government House.
One is from Cabramatta, another is from Marrickville, and
the third is from Lane Cove.
All three go with an official to examine the fence.
The Cabramatta contractor takes out a tape measure and
does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil.
"Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $900,
$400 for materials, $400 for my crew and $100 profit for me."
The Marrickville contractor also does some measuring and
figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700.
That's $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100
profit for me."
The Lane Cove contractor doesn't measure or figure, but
leans over to the government official and whispers, "$2,700."
The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure
like the other guys.
How did you come up with such a high figure?"
The Lane Cove contractor whispers back, "$1000 for me,
$1000 for you,
and we hire the guy from Marrickville to fix the fence."
