Willie and Molly in the sands
Engaged in youthful follies
The sun shone hot on Willie's back
The sand was hot ta Molly's

the gate

An Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman were without tickets for the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics, but hoped to be able to talk their way in at the gate.
Security was very tight, however, and each of their attempts was met with a stern refusal.
While wandering around outside the stadium, the Englishman came upon a construction site, which gave him an idea. Grabbing a length of scaffolding, he presented himself at the gate and said, “Johnson, the pole vault,” and was admitted.
The Scotsman, overhearing this, went at once to search the site. When he came up with a sledge hammer, he presented himself at the gate and said, “McTavish, the hammer.” He was also admitted.
The Irishman combed the site for an hour and was nearly ready to give up, when he spotted his ticket in. Seizing a roll of barbed wire, he presented himself at the gate and announced, “O'Sullivan, fencing.”

One Liners

• “I’m sorry” and “I apologize” mean the same thing. Except at a funeral.

• "I just read that someone in New York gets stabbed every 52 seconds. Poor guy."

• "I'll never forget my grandfather’s last words to me just before he died. "Are you still holding the ladder?""

• Son: “Dad, did you get the results of the DNA test back?”
Dad: “Call me George.”

"No misfortune is so bad that whining about it won't make it worse."

Is it "complete", "finished", or "completely finished"?

No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference between these two words - "Complete" or "Finished".

In a recent linguistic competition held in London and attended by, supposedly, the best in the world, Samdar Balgobin, a Guyanese man, was the clear winner with a standing ovation which lasted over 5 minutes.

The final question was: 'How do you explain the difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED in a way that is easy to understand?' Some contestants said there was no difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED.

Here is his astute answer: "When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE. When you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED. And when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!"

He won a trip around the world and a case of 25-year old Scotch worth $9,000.00 for the case of 6.

Best king ever was only 12 inches tall.

No idea why, but everyone said he was an excellent ruler.

Weird...

My wife asked me the other day, "Are you even listening to me?"

I thought it was a really weird way to start a conversation.
