How about a laugh, (hopefully)

Posted by Leonard @jakedduck1, Dec 31, 2018

I believe laughter is the best medicine. Laughter has actually been scientifically proven to help people with depression issues.
Let’s give it a try so we can all get happy and feel better. Many Epilepsy forums I’ve been on had joke sections. I was probably the biggest joke of all since I didn’t get a lot of the jokes. They said the jokes couldn’t be above 4th grade level for me to understand them so my jokes may be rather simplistic but let’s give it a try.
Have a lovely day everyone,
Jake

This old gal rode into the mining town on her mule. She dismounted and tied her mule to the hitchin post. A young gunslinger came out of the saloon with a gun in one hand and a bottle in the other. The gunslinger said to the woman prospector "you know how to dance". The old gal said "no I never did care to learn how". The gunslinger said well you are going to learn how now, and started shooting at her feet. To avoid getting her feet shot off she started hopping around. The gunslinger was laughing and emptied his six shooter. He then holstered his gun and turned to go back in the saloon. He stopped dead in his tracks when he heard both hammers cocked on a double barrel shotgun. He turned around real slow as white as a ghost. The old gal said "you ever kiss a mules ass". He said "no but I've always wanted too".

Little Johnny had a bad habit of passing gas very loudly. When his mother was having the Ladies Lawn Club over she admonished him not to pass gas while the ladies were there. He objected, of course, saying that he could not help himself; they just built up and had to come out. His mother compromised with him and told him that if he could absolutely not help it he should go to the bathroom or just let them gently "slide out."
Mother was on edge all through the Club meeting, but Johnny was a gem and nary a fart was heard. After the ladies left mother praised and thanked Johnny for not passing gas while the ladies were there. Johnny replied by sitting down, removing his boots and shaking them out. Mother asked why he was shaking his boots and Johnny replied, "There's your damn slideouts!"

One dark night in Dublin a fire started inside the local chemical plant.
In a blink of an eye it exploded into massive flames. The alarm went out to all the fire departments for miles around.

When the fire fighters appeared on the scene, the chemical company president rushed to the fireman in charge and said, “All our secret formulas are in the vault in the centre of the plant. They must be saved. I will give 50,000 euro to the fire department that brings them out intact.”

But the roaring flames held the fire-fighters off.

Soon more fire departments had to be called in as the situation became desperate. As the firemen arrived, the president shouted out that the offer was now 100,000 euro to the fire station who could bring out the company’s secret files.

But still the fire fighters could not get through.

From the distance, a lone siren was heard as another fire truck came into sight. It was the nearby rural township volunteer fire brigade, composed mainly of old men over 65. To everyone’s amazement, that little run-down fire engine roared right past all the newer sleek engines that were parked outside the plant. Without even slowing down it drove straight into the middle of the inferno.

Outside, the other firemen watched as the old timers jumped off right in the middle of the fire and fought it back on all sides.

It was a performance and effort never seen before.

Within a short time, the old timers had extinguished the fire and had saved the secret formulas.

The grateful chemical company president announced that for such a superhuman feat he was upping the reward to 200,000 euro and walked over to personally thank each of the brave fire fighters.

The local TV station caught the thank you on film and asked the chief, “What are you going to do with all that money?”

“Well,” said Paddy, the 70-year-old fire chief, “the first thing we’re gonna do is fix the brakes on that bloody fire truck.”

The year is 2024 and the United States has just elected the first woman as President of the United States.

A few days after the election, the president-elect calls her father in Milwaukee and asks, "So, Dad, I assume you will be coming to my
inauguration?"

"I don't think so. It's a long drive; your mom isn't as young as she used to be, we'll have the dog with us, and my arthritis is acting up in my knee."

"Don't worry about it, Dad. I'll send Air Force One or another support aircraft to pick you up and take you home, and a limousine will pick you up at your door," she said.

"I don't know. Everybody will be so fancy. What would your mother wear?"

"Oh, Dad," she replied, "I'll make sure she has a wonderful gown custom-made by one of the best designers in New York."

"Honey," Dad complained, "You know we can't eat those rich foods you and your friends like to eat."

The President-elect responded, "Don't worry, Dad. The entire affair is going to be handled by the best caterer in D.C. and I'll ensure your meals are salt-free. Dad, I really want you to come."

So her parents reluctantly agreed, and on January 24, 2024 arrived to see their daughter sworn in as President of the United States.

The parents are seated in the front row. The President's dad sees that a Senator is sitting next to him and whispers, "You see that woman up there with her hand on the Bible, becoming President of the United States?

The Senator whispered in reply, "Yes, sir, I sure do."

Dad says proudly, "Her brother plays football for the Packers."

I just don't understand kids these days. It is alarming the way they talk back to their parents. I talked back to my mom once and she grounded me for 2 weeks. The worst part of the whole thing was having to call my wife and explaining to her why I wasn't coming home.

When I was a kid, I once asked my mom if I was adopted. She said, "Yes, you were. But it didn't work out and they sent you back."
