His request approved, the Fox News photographer quickly used his cell
phone to call the local airport to charter a flight.
He was told a single engine Cessna would be waiting for him at the airport.
He was going to cover a big wild fire in the hills outside of town.
Arriving at the airfield, he spotted a plane warming up outside a hangar.
He jumped in with his photo bag, slammed the door shut, and shouted,
'Let's go.'
The pilot taxied out, swung the plane into the wind and took off.
Once in the air, the photographer instructed the pilot, `Fly over the
valley and make low passes so I can take pictures of the fires on the
hillsides.'
'Why?' asked the pilot.
'Because I'm a photographer for Fox Cable News,' he responded haughtily, 'and I need to get some close up shots.'
The pilot was strangely silent for a moment. Finally he stammered, 'So,
what you're telling me is . . . you're NOT my Flight Instructor?

A blonde bought two horses, and could never remember which was which. A
neighbor suggested that she cut the tail of one horse and that worked
great until the other horse got his tail caught in a bush. It tore just
right and looked exactly like the other horse's tail and our friend was
stuck again.
The neighbor suggested she notch the ear off one horse. That worked fine
until the other horse caught his ear on a barbed wire fence. Once again
our friend couldn't tell them apart. The neighbor suggested she measure
the horses for height. When she did, she was very pleased to find that
the white horse was 2 inches taller than the black.

A father put his three-year-old daughter to bed, told her a story and listened to her prayers, which she ended by saying "God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma, and good-bye Grandpa."
Father asked, "Why did you say good-bye grandpa?"
The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do."
The next day, Grandpa died. Father thought it was a strange coincidence.
A few months later, the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers, which went like this; "God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy and good-bye Grandma."
Next day, the grandmother died.
"My gosh," thought the father, "this kid is in contact with the other side!"
Several weeks later, when the girl was going to bed, the dad heard her say "God bless Mommy and good-bye Daddy."
He practically went into shock. He couldn't sleep all night, and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office. He was as nervous as a cat all day, had lunch sent in and watched the clock. He figured if he could get by until midnight, he would be OK. He felt safe in the office, so, instead of going home at the end of the day, he stayed there, drinking coffee, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound. Finally, midnight arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.
When he got home, his wife said, "I've never seen you work so late; what's the matter?"
He said, "I don't want to talk about it. I've just spent the worst day of my life!"
She said, "You think you had a bad day! You'll never believe what happened to me. This morning, the mailman dropped dead on our porch."

WOW!!!! we reached 100,000 and the world didn't end...
and on that note:
A man with a guilty conscience died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked, "What are all those clocks here for?"
St. Peter answered, "Those are the Lie-Clocks of Humanity. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time someone lies, the hands on their clock will movebackwards, and it determines how they will pay for their transgressions."
''Oh," said the man, noticing that one near the front was at 12 MN exactly, "To whom does that clock belong?"
''That's Mother Teresa's," said St. Peter, "the hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie during her life."
''Incredible,' said the man, 'And whose clock is that one?" pointing to one that was only 5 minutes before 12 MN.
St. Peter responded, "That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice,
telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life.'
'Where's Barrack Obama's clock?" asked the man.
"'Obama's clock?" queried St. Peter, scratching his head, "Oh, that's in my office.
... I use it for a ceiling fan."

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.

The great thing with old political jokes is that they are recycleable. It is REALLY great if you have print resources that go back to the Eisenhower era; many of the jkes that I see on the 'Net are direct lifts from the New Yorker or Washington Post of yesteryear.

LOL! never herd that one,but reminds me of one!
A John gets to heaven and St. peter asked him if he ever cheated on his wife and he said only once so he said I'll give you a Rolls Royce to get around up here.Steve gets there and St.Peters ask him the same question and said,yes,5 times.So he got a Chevy.Tom gets there and says"all the time,to many to give a number.So he got a Yugo.
So the three meet at a Red light and asked John why he's crying?You have the nicest car. And he said he just saw his wife riding a skateboard!
I love that one!ROTFLMAO!
