Warning Sign


 From The New Yorker by Christopher Weyant

Two blondes went deer hunting and they managed to shoot a deer.

They started dragging the deer by the hind legs to get it back to their truck.

An experienced hunter saw them and said, "Girls, you're doing it wrong. You're dragging against the grain of the deer's hair. If you drag by the antlers, you'll be pulling with the grain of the hair, and it will be much easier."

So, the two blondes started dragging their deer by the antlers.

After about 20 minutes, one said to the other, "You know, that old guy was right! It's so much easier to drag the deer by the antlers, it's like it's just gliding along the ground."

"Yeah, he was," said the other blonde. "But we sure are getting far away from our truck."

Unnecessary Job?

From Liniers Cartoon

Today I went to the barbers for a shave.

The barber asked me to put a small wooden ball in my mouth so that he could get a closer shave around my cheeks.

I asked, "But what if I swallow the ball?"

He replied, "No problem sir, you just bring it back tomorrow like everybody else."

Bowl Fight


From The Argyle Sweater

I remember when I knocked out the school bully.

I thought I'd be an instant hero.

But apparently it was "appalling behaviour" for a parent.

In the northern hemisphere, small dogs chase their tails clockwise, but in the southern hemisphere, they chase them anticlockwise.

This is known as the corgiolis effect.

A Load Of Balls

From Leigh Rubin

I bumped into a friend in the street.

He had a noticeably large bulge by his groin.

"What's going on there?", I asked, pointing at it.

"Tennis ball" he replied.

"Oh mate, I feel for you", I sympathised, "I had that in my elbow once and that was painful enough".

Fast Service

They say a dog can retrieve a tennis ball from over a kilometre away.

That seems a bit far‑fetched to me.

I always wanted to be a professional golfer like my dad.

He always wanted to be a professional golfer too.
