This has left scientists scratching their heads. |

A notorious criminal goes to the local Roman Catholic priest and says, "Father, I will give $1,000,000 to your church if you will say the eulogy for my brother, but you must make him out to be a saint."
The priest thinks for a long moment, and agrees.
At the service, the priest says, "Before us lies a man who was a murderer, kidnapper and extortionist. He lived every waking moment plotting some new atrocity against society. It is to our great relief that he no longer lives among us."
"But, compared to his brother, this man was a saint!" |

Communism jokes are not funny unless everyone gets them, comrade.

Her sharing herself equally with everyone would have been a red flag.
Her graduating high school on the “five year plan” would have been another. |

| From: Joachim K | 10/27/2019 12:07:15 AM | | | | | | A large group of ISIS soldiers are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a sand-dune. "One Marine is better than ten ISIS fighters". The ISIS commander quickly sends 10 of his best soldiers over the dune whereupon a gun-battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes, then silence.
The voice then calls out "One Marine is better than one hundred ISIS fighters". Furious, the ISIS commander sends his next best 100 troops over the dune and instantly a huge gun fight commences, after 10 minutes of battle, again silence.
The voice calls out again "One Marine is better than one thousand ISIS fighters". The enraged ISIS Commander musters one thousand fighters and sends them across the dune. Cannon, rocket and machine gun fire ring out as a huge battle is fought, then silence.
Eventually one wounded ISIS fighter crawls back over the dune and with his dying words tells his commander, "Don't send any more men, its a trap, there’s two of them! |

| To: Sun Tzu who wrote (59820) | 10/30/2019 11:15:41 PM | | From: Stephen O | | | | A woman and her 12-year-old son were riding in a taxi in Detroit . It
was raining and all the prostitutes were standing under awnings.
"Mom," said the boy, "what are all those women doing?"
"They're waiting for their husbands to get off work," she replied.
The taxi driver turns around and says, "Geez lady, why don't you tell
him the truth? They're hookers, boy! They have sex with men for
money."
The little boy's eyes get wide and he says, "Is that true Mom?"
His mother, glaring hard at the driver, answers "Yes."
After a few minutes the kid asks, "Mom, if those women have babies,
what happens to them?"
She said, "Most of them become taxi drivers." |
