The Soviet official chuckled and let the old man through.
When the old man arrived at Tel Aviv airport, an Israeli customs official found the bust of Lenin.
"What is that?"
"WHAT is that?! You mean WHO is that?! That is Lenin, the son-of-a-b*tch! I will display him over my toilet for all the years he stopped me from coming home!"

IRISH PRIEST

An Irish Priest was transferred to Texas.   
He rose from his bed one morning.  It was a fine spring day in his new west Texas mission parish.
He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside.
He then noticed there was a jackass lying dead in the middle of his front lawn.   
He promptly called the local police station.
The conversation went like this:
"Good morning.  This is Sergeant Jones. How might I help you?"
"And the best of the day to yourself.  This is Father O'Malley at St. Ann 's Catholic Church. There's a jackass lying dead in me front lawn and would ye be so kind as to send a couple o'yer lads to take care of the matter?
Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit and recognizing the foreign accent, thought he would have a little fun with the good father, replied, "Well now Father, it was always my impression that you people took care of the last rites!"
There was dead silence on the line for a long moment.
Father O'Malley then replied, "Aye, 'tis certainly true; but we are also obliged to notify the next of kin first, which is the reason for me call."

ITALIAN FUNERAL

A Jewish man was leaving a convenience store with his espresso when he noticed a most unusual Italian funeral procession approaching
the nearby cemetery.
A black hearse was followed by a second black hearse about 50 feet behind the first one. Behind the second hearse was a solitary Italian man walking a dog on a leash.
Behind him, a short distance back, were about 200 men walking in single file.
The Jewish man couldn't stand the curiosity. He respectfully approached theItalian man walking the dog and said: "I am so sorry for your loss, and thismay be a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen an Italian funeral like this. Whose funeral is it?"
"My wife's."
''What happened to  her?"
"She yelled at me and my dog attacked and killed her."
He inquired further, "But who is in the second hearse?"
My mother-in-law. She came to help my wife and the dogturned on her and killed her also.
A very poignant and touching moment of Jewish and Italianbrotherhood and silence passed between the two men.

FUNNY PEOPLE

There once was a blind man who decided to visit Texas. When he arrived on the plane, he felt the seats and said, “Wow, these seats are big!’ The person next to him answered, “Everything is big in Texas.’
When he finally arrived in Texas, he decided to visit a bar. Upon arriving in the bar, he ordered a beer and got a mug placed between his hands. He exclaimed, “Wow these mugs are big!’
The bartender replied, “Everything is big in Texas.’
After a couple of beers, the blind man asked the bartender where the bathroom was located.
The bartender replied, “Second door to the right.’
The blind man headed for the bathroom, but accidentally tripped over a bucket and skipped the second door. Instead, he entered the third door, which lead to the swimming pool and fell into the pool by accident.
Scared to death, the blind man started shouting… “Don´t flush, don´t flush!’

Three nurses sneak into the morgue and see a man lying on a slab with a giant hard on. The first nurse says, "this is too good to waste," so she hitches up her dress, climbs on and rides it for all she's worth.
When she finishes, nurse number two also decides it's too good to waste, so she too climbs on and rides with all her might.
When she finishes, they both tell nurse number three to have a go, but she refuses saying that she can't because she's on her period.
After some thought, she decides that it won't matter, as he's dead anyway, so she mounts him and rides until she's exhausted.
As she finishes and climbs off, the man suddenly sits up.
"Oh, we're so sorry," said the nurses, "but we thought you were dead."
"I was," said the man, "but, after two jump-starts and a blood transfusion, I'm feeling better than I've felt in years."

A married couple in their early 60s were celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant.
Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, "For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish."
The wife answered, "Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband."
The fairy waved her magic wand and – poof! – two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.
The husband thought for a moment: "Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again.
I´m sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me."
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish.
So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!… the husband became 92 years old.

The teacher told him to go down to the principal's office. He was to telephone his mother and ask her what he should do about it. He did it and returned to his class. Suddenly, there was a commotion at the back of the room.  She went back to investigate only to find him sitting at his desk with his penis hanging out.

QUESTION ANSWERED

One evening a man was at home watching TV and eating peanuts. He'd toss them in the air, and then catch them in his mouth. In the middle of catching one, his wife asked him a question - and as he turned to answer her, a peanut fell in his ear.
He tried and tried to dig it out but succeeded only pushing it in deeper.
He called his wife for assistance, and after hours of trying they became worried and decided to go to the hospital.
As they were ready to go out the door, their daughter came home with her date. After being informed of the problem, their daughter's date said he could get the peanut out.
The young man told the father to sit down, then proceeded to shove two fingers up the father's nose and told him to blow hard.
When the father blew, the peanut flew out of his ear. The mother and daughter jumped and yelled for joy. The young man insisted that it was nothing.
Once he was gone, the mother turned to the father and said, 'That's so wonderful! Isn't he smart? What do you think he's going to be when he grows older??
The father replied, 'From the smell of his fingers, our son-in-law.'

Number 4   -    Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in the hospital, dying of nothing.
Number 3   -    All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish:

He declines again. "No," he says, "it's got to be the Viagra. I'm still not hungry."
"Well," she says, "Would you mind letting me up? I'm starving."

MISSING SHOVEL

I woke up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night and I  noticed a Muslim, sneaking through my next door neighbor's  garden.
Suddenly my neighbor came from nowhere and smacked him over the  head with a shovel, killing him instantly.
He then dug a grave and put the body in it and covered it. Astonished I got back into bed. Carol, my lovely wife said,  "Warren, what is it?
"You'll never believe what I've just seen," I said, "that son  of a bitch next door still has my shovel."

RAMBLINGS OF A RETIRED MIND

I found this timely, because today I was in a store that sells sunglasses, and only sunglasses. A young lady
alks over to me and asks, "what brings you in today?". I looked at her, and said, I'm interested in buying a
efrigerator. She didn't quite know how to respond. Am I getting to be that age?

I was thinking about how a status symbol of today is those cell  phones that everyone has clipped onto their belt or purse.  I
an't afford one.  So I'm wearing my garage door opener. You know, I spent a fortune on deodorant before I realized that
eople didn't like me anyway.

I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans!

I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is when  you still have something on the ball but you are just too tired
o bounce it.

I thought about making a fitness movie for folks my age and  call it 'Pumping Rust'.

When people see a cat's litter box they always say, 'Oh, have  you got a cat?'  Just once I want to say, 'No, it's for  company!'

Employment application blanks always ask who is to be called in  case of an emergency. I think you should write, 'An ambulance.'

I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole  lot more as they get older. Then it dawned on me. They were  cramming for their finals. As for me, I'm just hoping God grades on the curve.

Birds of a feather flock together ... and then crap on your  car.

The older you get the tougher it is to lose weight because by  then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good  friends.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to  buy a replacement.

Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.

The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell  when he's really in trouble..

Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words 'The' and 'IRS'  together it spells 'Theirs...'

Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying  about your age and start bragging about it.

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want  people to know 'why' I look this way.  I've traveled a long way  and some of the roads weren't paved.

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or  leaks.

Ah! Being young is beautiful but being old is comfortable. Lord, Keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my  mouth.

I was in bed with a blind girl last night and she said that I had the biggest penis she had ever laid her hands on. I said "You're pulling my leg."

I saw a poor old lady fall over today on the sidewalk! At least I presume she was poor - she only had $1.20 in her purse.

My girlfriend thinks that I'm a stalker. Well, she's not exactly my girlfriend yet.

Went for my routine checkup today and everything seemed to be going fine until he stuck his index finger up my butt! Do you think I should change dentists?

A wife says to her husband you're always pushing me around and talking behind my back. He says what do you expect? You're in a wheel chair.

I was explaining to my wife last night that when you die you get reincarnated but must come back as a different creature. She said she would like to come back as a cow. I said, "You're obviously not listening".

The wife has been missing a week now. Police said to prepare for the worst. So, I have been to the thrift shop to get all of her clothes back.

At the Senior Citizens Center they had a contest the other day. I lost by one point: The question was: Where do women mostly have curly hair? Apparently the correct answer was Africa!!!

One of the other questions that I missed was to name one thing commonly found in cells. It appears that Mexicans is not the correct answer either.

There's a new Muslim clothing shop opened in our shopping center, but I've been banned from it after asking to look at some of the new bomber jackets.

You can say lots of bad things about pedophiles but at least they drive slowly past schools.

Being a modest man, when I checked into my hotel on a recent trip, I said to the lady at the registration desk, "I hope the porn channel in my room is disabled." To which she replied, "No, it's regular people-porn, you sick bastard.

A buddy of mine has just told me he's getting it on with his girlfriend and her twin. I said "How can you tell them apart?" He said "Her brother's got a mustache."

The Red Cross have just knocked at our door and asked if we could help towards the floods in Pakistan. I said we would love to, but our garden hose only reaches the driveway.

HE DROPPED DEAD

Six retired Floridians were playing poker in the condo clubhouse when Meyerwitz loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest and drops dead at the table.
Showing respect for their fallen comrade, the other five continue playing standing up.
Finkelstein looks around and asks, "So, who's gonna' tell his wife?" They draw straws.
Goldberg picks the short one. They tell him to be discreet, be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse.
"Discreet? I'm the most discreet person you'll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name, leave it to me."
Goldberg goes over to the Meyerwitz apartment, knocks on the door.
The wife answers and asks what he wants.
 Goldberg declares : "Your husband just lost $500, and is afraid to come home."
"Tell him to drop dead!" says the wife.
"I'll go tell him." says Goldberg.

AN AMAZING DISCOVERY

"I had a power outage at my house this morning and my PC, Laptop, TV, DVD, IPad and my new surround sound music system were all shut down.
Then I discovered that my iPhone battery was dead.
To top it off, it was raining so I couldn't go for a walk, bike, or run.
The garage door opener needs electricity so I couldn't go anywhere in the car.
I went into the kitchen to make coffee and then I remember that this also needed power, so I sat and talked with my wife for a few hours.
She seems like a nice person.

PRIDE GOETH BEFORE THE FALL

Jack and Sam, two friends met in the park every day to feed the pigeons, watch the squirrels and discuss world problems.  

One day Jack didn't show up. Sam didn't think much about it  and figured maybe he had a cold or something.  But after Jack  hadn't shown up for a week or so, Sam really got worried.

However, since the only time they ever got together was at the  park, Sam didn't know where Jack lived, so he was unable to find  out what had happened to him.

A month had passed, and Sam figured he had seen the last of  Jack but one day, Sam approached the park and, lo and behold!,  there sat Jack!  

Sam was very excited and happy to see him and told him so. Then he said, 'For crying out loud , Jack what in the world  happened to you?'

Jack replied, 'I´ve been in jail.'  Jail!' cried Sam.  What in the world for?'  

'Well,'  Jack said, 'you know Sue, that cute little blonde waitress at  the coffee shop where I sometimes go?'  Yeah,' said Sam, 'I  remember her.  What about her?  

'Well, the little gold-digging witch figured I was rich and she filed  rape charges against me and, at 89 years old, I was so proud  that when I got into court, I pleaded 'guilty'.  

'The judge gave me 30 days for perjury.'

IT'S AN EFFING SHAME!

A woman of advanced age visited her physician to ask his advice on reviving her husband's libido.
'What about trying Viagra?' asked the doctor.
'Not a chance', she said.  'He won't even take an aspirin.'
'Not a problem,' replied the doctor.  'Give him an 'Irish Viagra'...
'What is Irish Viagra?", she asked.
It's when you drop the Viagra tablet into his coffee.  He won't even taste it.
Give it a try and call me in a week to let me know how things went.'
It was a week later when she called the doctor, who directly inquired as to her progress.  The poor dear exclaimed, 'Oh, faith, bejaysus and begorrah!
T'was horrid!  Just terrible, doctor!'
Really?  What happened?' asked the doctor.
Well, I did as you advised and slipped it in his coffee and the effect was almost immediate.  He jumped straight up, with a smile on his face, a twinkle in his eye and with his pants a-bulging fiercely!  With one swoop of his arms, he sent me cups and saucers flying, ripped me clothes to tatters and took me then and there passionately on the tabletop!
T'was a nightmare, I tell you, an absolute nightmare!'
Why so terrible?' asked the doctor, 'Do you mean the sex your husband provided wasn't good?'
'Freakin'  jaysus, it was the best sex I've had in 25 years!  But sure as I'm sittin' here, I'll never be able to show me face in Starbucks again!

Why We Love Children .......

1. A nursery school pupil told his teacher he'd found a cat, but  it was dead.
'How do you know that the cat was dead?' she asked her pupil.
'Because I pissed in its ear and it didn't move,' answered the  child innocently.
'You did WHAT?' the teacher exclaimed in surprise.
'You know,' explained the boy, 'I leaned over and went 'Pssst'  and it didn't move'   

A small boy is sent to bed by his father.
Five minutes later.....'Da-ad....'
'What?'
'I'm thirsty. Can you bring a drink of water?'
'No, You had your chance. Lights out.'
Five minutes later: 'Da-aaaad.....'
'WHAT?'
'I'm THIRSTY. Can I have a drink of water??'
' I told you NO! If you ask again, I'll have to smack you!!'
Five minutes later.......'Daaaa-aaaad.....'
'WHAT!'
'When you come in to smack me, can you bring a drink of water?'

3. An exasperated mother, whose son was always getting into  mischief, finally asked him 'How do you expect to get into  Heaven?'
The boy thought it over and said, 'Well, I'll run in and out and  in and out and keep slamming the door until St. Peter says, 'For  Heaven's sake, Dylan, come in or stay out!''

4. One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her son into bed. She was about to turn off the light
hen he asked with a tremor in his voice, 'Mummy, will you sleep with me  tonight?'
The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. 'I can't dear,' she said. 'I have to sleep in Daddy's room.'
A long silence was broken at last by his shaky little voice: 'The  big sissy.'   

5. It was that time, during the Sunday morning service, for the children's sermon.
All the children were invited to come forward.
One little girl was wearing a particularly pretty dress and, as she sat down, the minister leaned over and said, 'That is a very  pretty dress. Is it your Easter Dress?'
The little girl replied, directly into the minister's clip-on  microphone, 'Yes, and my Mum says it's a bitch to iron.'   

6. When I was six months pregnant with my third child, my three year old came into the room when I was just getting ready to get into the shower.
She said, 'Mummy, you are getting fat!'
I replied, 'Yes, honey, remember Mummy has a baby growing in her tummy.'
'I know,' she replied, but what's growing in your bum?'   

7. A little boy was doing his math homework.
He said to himself, 'Two plus five, that son of a bitch is seven. Three plus six, that son of a bitch is nine....'
His mother heard what he was saying and gasped, 'What are you doing?'
The little boy answered, 'I'm doing my math homework, Mum.'
'And this is how your teacher taught you to do it?' the mother asked
'Yes,' he answered.
Infuriated, the mother asked the teacher the next day, 'What are you teaching my son in math?'
The teacher replied, 'Right now, we are learning addition.'
The mother asked, 'And are you teaching them to say two plus two, that son of a bitch is four?'
After the teacher stopped laughing, she answered, 'What I taught them was, two plus two, THE SUM OF WHICH, is four.'   

8. One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of Chicken Little to her class.
She came to the part of the story where Chicken Little tried to warn the farmer.
She read, '... and so Chicken Little went up to the farmer and said, 'The sky is falling, the sky is falling!'
The teacher paused then asked the class, 'And what do you think that farmer said?'
One little girl raised her hand and said, 'I think he said: 'Holy Shit! A talking chicken!'' .   

9. A certain little girl, when asked her name, would reply, I'm Mr. Sugarbrown's daughter.'
Her mother told her this was wrong, she must say, 'I'm Jane Sugarbrown.'
The Vicar spoke to her in Sunday School, and said, 'Aren't you Mr. Sugarbrown's daughter?'
She replied, 'I thought I was, but mother says I'm not.'   

10. A little girl asked her mother, 'Can I go outside and play with the boys?'
Her mother replied, 'No, you can't play with the boys, they're too rough.'
The little girl thought about it for a few moments and asked, If I can find a smooth one, can I play with him?'   

11. A little girl goes to the barber shop with her father.
She stands next to the barber chair, while her dad gets his hair cut, eating a snack cake
The barber says to her,  'Sweetheart, you're gonna get hair on your muffin..'
She says, 'Yes, I know, and I'm gonna get big boobs too.'
