Bruce : Is this a joke or not? The pub was full of smoke and the smell of stale beer when Pat decided that it was time for him to head for home so as not to catch the wrath of his wife. He pushed away from his seat at the bar and promptly fell to the floor. He pulled himself up to the bar again and ventured a step. Down he went," Shucks" he said to himself, "That last Guiness was stronger than I thought. Ah well I'll just have to crawl to the door." So off he set on his hands and knees calling out his 'good nights' to his friends on the way. He hauled himself up on the door using the handle and swung out into the fresh air. He drew a deep lung full and said,"There, now I should be all right", and stepped into the street only to fall flat on his face. "Darn." he thought," I must have had more than I thought. I guess that it was those two that George bought me." So he set out to crawl the two blocks to his home. When he reached there he pulled himself up on the door, opened it and fell inside. Very quietly, s! o as not to wake his wife, he quietly crawled up to his bedroom. He divested himself of his clothes while on the floor and hoisted himself onto his bed. He was asleep in an instant. Next morning he awoke to his wife standing over him and berating him. "You were out drinking all night again you good for nothing Irish man! You broke your promise to me again!" "No honey. Honestly I only had a couple of pints at the 'Eagle and Child'. I promise" " Well then George why is it that the publician just called to tell me that you had left your wheel chair parked in the pub again?" Friends are the jewels of life. ---------- : From: Bruce Anderson <[log in to unmask]> : To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN <[log in to unmask]> : Subject: Re: non pd humor : Date: 20 June 1998 05:48 : : Art, I guess my cut and paste technique could use some practice. : : I read some of this humor I get and for the life of me I can't figure out fi : they're funny or not by just reading them.
