A kid gave his teacher a blank piece of paper.
Teacher: What is this?
Kid: It's a drawing of a cow eating grass.
Teacher: (looked at the paper) Where's the grass?
Kid: The cow ate all of it.
Teacher: (looked at the paper again) Then, where's the cow?
Kid: It left because there was no more grass.

You are driving in a car at a constant speed. On your left hand side there is a valley and on your right hand side there is a fire engine travelling at the same speed as you.

In front of you there is a galloping pig which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it.

Behind you there is a helicopter flying at ground level.

Both the giant pig and the helicopter are travelling at the same speed as you.

What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation?

Get off the merry-go-round - you're drunk! :P

Ok, if we're going to do pointless jokes, I read this one and thought of jsr.


The German controllers at Frankfurt Airport were a short-tempered lot.
They not only expected you to know your parking location but how to
get there without any assistance from them. So it was with some amusement
that we (PanAm 747) listened to the following exchange between Frankfurt
ground and a British Airways 747 (radio call Speedbird 206) after
landing:

Speedbird 206: "Good morning Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear of the
active (runway)."

Ground: "Guten morgan, taxi to your gate."

The British Airways 747 pulls onto the main taxiway and stops.

Ground: "Speedbird, do you not know where you are going?"

Speedbird 206: "Stand by, ground, I'm looking up the gate location now."

Ground (with typical German impatience): "Speedbird 206, have you
never flown to Frankfurt before?"

Speedbird 206 (coolly): "Yes, in 1944. But I didn't stop".

classic :)

here's a similar one:

A Pan Am 727 waiting for start clearance in Munich overheard the following:

Lufthansa (in German): "Ground, what is our start clearance time?"
Ground (in English): "If you want an answer you must speak in English."
Lufthansa (in English): "I am a German, flying a German airplane, in Germany. Why must I speak English?"
Unknown voice from another plane (in a British accent): "Because you lost the bloody war!"

A doctor is caught having sex with one of his patients, and within minutes the whole hospital is talking about it. Later that day he's cornered by an administrator, who says, "Rumor has it you had sex with a patient. I demand an explanation."

"Look," says the doc. "I'm single. I'm not the first doctor to screw one of his patients, and I won't be the last. So what's the big deal?"

"But, Sam, you're a veterinarian!"
