Long Walk

A man, his wife and their eight children were waiting at a bus stop. Not long after, a blind man joined the group. The bus finally arrived, but the blind man and the husband are forced to walk because there was just no more room on the bus. As they walk together, the tapping of the blind man's cane started to irritate the family man. Finally he said, "You know, that's pretty irritating. Why don't you put a rubber on the end of that stick?"

The blind man retorted, "If you'd put a rubber on the end of your stick, we'd both be on that bus."

Obsession

A man went to a psychiatrist, and told him, "Doc, I think I have an obsession with sex."

The doctor agreed to examine him and began by showing him various drawings. First the doctor drew a square and asked the man to identify it.

The man immediately said, "Omigosh! Four people having sex!"

Next, the doctor drew a circle, at which the man gasped, and said, "One man having sex."

Next, the doctor drew a triangle, which, of course, the patient identified as, "Two woman and one man having sex."

The doctor put the drawings away and said to the patient, "Yes, I do believe that you have an obsession with sex."

"Me? You're the one drawing all the dirty pictures!"

Looking for donations…

A man was driving down the road and there was a road block. Police officers were walking and telling people what was going on. The police man finally got to the man and said, "O.J. Simpson just heard the verdict and is threatening to cover himself in gasoline and burn himself to death. He said he wont have any money left and we're going around collecting donations."

The man said "How much do you have so far?"

The police man said, "10 gallons."

When it Rains it Pours

Richard and Beth were making love when she cried out, "Oh my God! I hear my husband coming! You have to get out of here fast!"

Richard quickly jumped out the window without thinking first, andfell into some bushes. As luck would have it, it started to rain. He sat there, stark naked and wondering what he was go'n to do when a bunch of joggers happened to jog by. Richard quickly jumped up and joined the joggers.

As he was running along with the rest of the joggers, one asked , "Sir, do you always jog in the nude?"

"Why yes, I do," he replied sheepishly.

"I see," replied the jogger. "Do you always wear a condom?"

"No," replied Richard. "Only when it rains!"

Uncle Ted scares the kids

A blonde guy got home early from work and heard strange noises coming from his bedroom. He rushed upstairs to find his wife naked on the bed, sweating and panting.

"What's up?" he asked.

"I'm having a heart attack," cried his wife.

He rushed downstairs to grab the phone, but just as he's dialing, his 4-year-old son came up and said, "Daddy! Daddy! Uncle Ted is hiding in your wardrobe and he's got no clothes on!"

The blonde guy slammed the phone down and stormed upstairs into the bedroom, past his screaming wife, and ripped open the wardrobe door. Sure enough, there is his brother, totally naked, cowering on the wardrobe floor.

"You bastard," yelled the blonde man, "my wife's having a heart attack and you're running around with no clothes on scaring the kids!"
