    Don't pay any attention. It's all gobbledegook (not sure what a gook is in Cherman)

    Marriage Anecdotes:

    After my wife died, I couldn't even look at another woman for 10 years. But now that I'm out of jail, I can honestly say it was worth it.

    Got an e-mail today from a "bored housewife 32, looking for some action!" I've sent her my ironing, that'll keep her busy.

    The wife's been hinting she want's something black and lacy for her birthday. So I've got her a pair of football boots.

    My wife asked if she could have a little peace and quiet while she cooked the dinner, so I took the batteries out of the smoke alarm.

    Anyone got an owner’s manual for a wife? Mine's giving off a terrible whining noise!

    My wife apologised for the first time ever today. She said she's sorry she ever married me.

    My wife said I needed to be more in touch with my feminine side, so I crashed the car, burnt the dinner and ignored her all day for no reason.

    Scientists have discovered a certain food that diminishes a woman's sex drive by 90 percent. It's called wedding cake.

    Things turned really ugly at my house last night. The wife removed her make up.

    My wife shouted at me this morning for not opening the car door for her. I would have, but I was too busy swimming to the surface.

    Queen Elizabeth is visiting an Edinburgh hospital.

    She enters a ward full of patients, and notices that they’re all dressed in street clothes and have no obvious sign of injury or illness.

    The Queen approaches a patient and greets him. The patient replies:
    “My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
    My heart’s in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer.”

    The Queen is confused, but smiles and moves on to greet the next patient. The patient responds:
    “Some hae meat an’ canna eat, And some wad eat tha’ want it,
    But we hae meat an’ we can eat, so let the Lord be thankit.”

    Even more confused, and smiling even more broadly, the Queen moves on to the next patient who immediately begins to chant:
    “My love is like a red, red rose that’s newly sprung in June;
    My love is like the melody that’s sweetly played in tune.”

    Now very confused, the Queen turns to the accompanying doctor and asks, “Is this a psychiatric ward?”

    “No, Your Majesty,” replies the doctor.

    “This is the serious Burns unit."

    I've got a kid in little village in Africa that I'm supporting for less than $1 a day, which is nothing... compared to the cost of sending him there.

    A warning to all drivers:

    Be careful about drink driving as we are getting close to Christmas. The Police are out in full force pulling drivers over for a random breath test. A few nights ago I was out for a few Christmas drinks, and as one sometimes does I had a few too many beers and then went onto the wine. Not a good idea. Knowing I was very likely over the limit, I left my car where I parked it and took a bus home. Sure enough, on the way, I passed an RBT where they were pulling over drivers and performing breathalyser tests. The Police saw the bus and waved it past. I eventually arrived home safely and without incident, which was a real surprise as I've never driven a bus before and I am not even sure where I got it from!?

    King Arthur and the Witch:

    Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death.

    The question?....What do women really want? Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, and to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end.

    He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: the princess, the priests, the wise men and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer.

    Many people advised him to consult the old witch, for only she would have the answer.

    But the price would be high; as the witch was famous throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged.

    The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree to her price first.

    The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the most noble of the Knights of the Round Table and Arthur's closest friend!

    Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunchbacked and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc. He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life.

    He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden; but Lancelot, learning of the proposal, spoke with Arthur.

    He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life and the preservation of the Round Table.

    Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered Arthur's question thus:

    What a woman really wants, she answered....is to be in charge of her own life.

    Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth and that Arthur's life would be spared.

    And so it was, the neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom and Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.

    The honeymoon hour approached and Lancelot, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him. The most beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened

    The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, she would henceforth, be her horrible deformed self only half the time and the beautiful maiden the other half.

    Which would he prefer? Beautiful during the day....or night?

    Lancelot pondered the predicament. During the day, a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch? Or, would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day, but by night, a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wondrous intimate moments?

    What would YOU do?

    What Lancelot chose is below. BUT....make YOUR choice before you scroll down below. OKAY?








    Noble Lancelot said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself.

    Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time because he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.

    Now....what is the moral to this story?







    The moral is.....
    If you don't let a woman have her own way....
    Things are going to get ugly!
