USAMA (OSAMA) BIN LADEN
2001 Oct 8 Subject: Osama and the genie If this could only be true!! Three guys, a Canadian, Osama Bin Ladin and an Israeli are out walking together one day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it. "I will give each of you each one wish, that's three wishes total," says the Genie. The Canadian says, "I am a farmer, my dad was a farmer, and my son will also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada." With a blink of the Genie's eye, 'POOF' the land in Canada was forever made fertile for farming. Osama Bin Ladin was amazed, so he said, "I want a wall around Afganistan, so that no infidels and Jews can come into our precious state." Again, with a blink of the Genie's eye, 'POOF' there was a huge wall around Afghanistan. "Uncle Sam" Goldberg, an Israeli civil engineer, asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell me more about this wall that's around Afghanistan." The Genie explains, "Well, it's about 15,000 feet high, 500 feet thick and completely surrounds the country; nothing can get in or out---virtually impenetrable." "Uncle Sam" says, "Fill it with water." _______________________________________________________ 2001 Aug 4 Subject: 50 and older For the 50 and older crowd: In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first. It's harder and harder for sexual harassment charges to stick. Kidnappers are not very interested in you. No one expects you to run into a burning building. People call at 9 p.m. and ask, "Did I wake you?" People no longer view you as a hypochondriac. There's nothing left to learn the hard way. Things you buy now won't wear out. You buy a compass for the dash of your car. You can eat dinner at 4:00 You can live without sex but not without glasses. You can't remember the last time you laid on the floor to watch television. You consider coffee one of the most important things in life. You constantly talk about the price of gasoline. You enjoy hearing about other people's operations. You get into a heated argument about pension plans. You got cable for the weather channel. You have a party and the neighbors don't even realize it. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge. You quit trying to hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room. You send money to PBS. You sing along with the elevator music. You talk about "good grass" and you're referring to someone's lawn. Your arms are almost too short to read the newspaper. Your back goes out more than you do. Your ears are hairier than your head. Your eyes won't get much worse. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off. Your joints are more accurate than the National Weather Service. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either. Your supply of brain cells is finally down to a manageable size.

I am a BAD American. I am George Carlin. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some midlevel governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts squirting out babies. I'm not in touch with my feelings and I like it that way, damn it! I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne, Ice-T or Marilyn Manson sang. I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer. I believe it's called the Boy Scouts for a reason. I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized. I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, you'd better do it in English. I don't use the excuse "it's for the children" as a shield for unpopular opinions or actions. I think fireworks should be legal on the 4th of July. I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster. In fact, if your parents are footing the bill to put your pansy ass through 4-7 years of college, you haven't begun to be enlightened. I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God. My heroes are John Wayne, the Simpsons, and whoever canceled Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor. I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time arguing about it. I think global warming is a big lie. Where are all those experts now, when I am freezing my ass through a long winter? I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I didn't wander forty years in the desert after getting chased out of Egypt, I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you, so shut-the-#$%!-up already. I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches. And where does he get his money. And why is he always part of the problem and not the solution. I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry ass if you're running from them. I also think they have the right to pull your ass over if you are breaking the law, regardless of what color you are. I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation the world for the next four years. I hate those bastards standing in the intersections trying to sell me crap or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause. These people should be targets. I think if you are in the passing lane, and not passing, your license should be revoked, and you should be forced to ride the bus until you promise to never delay the rest of us again. I think beef jerky could quite possibly be the perfect food. I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child; it takes two parents. I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. I think Dr. Seuss was a genius. I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised, no matter how desperately the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise. I believe if she has her lips on your willie, it is sex, and it is sex for both of you. This even applies when you are President of the United States. If that makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American. If you too are a BAD American, please forward this to everyone you know. We need our country back! 2001 July 11 This is for men who are tired of receiving male-bashing jokes. How many men does it take to open a beer? None. It should be open by the time she brings it to you. Why is a Laundromat a really bad place to pick up a woman? Because a woman who can't afford a washing machine will probably never be able to support you. Why do women have smaller feet than men? It's one of those "evolutionary things" that allows them to stand closer to the sink. How do you know when a woman is about to say something smart? She starts her sentence with "A man once told me. . ." How do you fix a woman's watch? You don't. There's a clock on the oven. Why do men fart more than women? Because women can't shut up long enough to build up the required pressure. If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife is yelling at the front door, who do you let in first? The dog of course. He'll shut up once you let him in. I haven't spoken to my wife for 18 months. I don't like to interrupt her. What do you call a woman who's lost 95% of her intelligence? Divorced. Scientists have discovered a food that diminishes a woman's sex drive by 90%. It's called a wedding cake. Our last fight was my fault. My wife asked me "what's on the t.v.?" I said Dust. In the beginning, God created the earth and rested. Then God created Man and rested. Then God created Woman and since then, neither God nor Man has rested. Why do men die before their wives? They want to. A beggar walked up to a well dressed woman shopping on Rodeo Drive and said: "I haven't eaten anything in four days." She looked at him and said, "God, I wish I had your willpower." Young Son: Is it true Dad, I heard that in some parts of Africa a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her? Dad: That happens in every country Son. A man inserted an advertisement in the classified: "Wife Wanted". The next day he received a hundred or more letters. They all said the same thing. "You can have mine." The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it. Once. Are women equal to men? No. Not until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut and still think they're beautiful. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eighteen Reasons Why Golf Is Better Than Sex 18 - You don't have to sneak your golf magazines into the house. 17 - If you are having trouble with golf, it's perfectly acceptable to pay a professional to show you how to improve your technique. 16 - The Ten Commandments don't say anything about golf. 15 - If your partner takes pictures or videotapes of you golfing, you don't have to worry about them showing up on the Internet when you become famous. 14 - Your golf partner won't keep asking questions about other partners you've golfed with. 13 - It's perfectly respectable to golf with a total stranger. 12 - When you see a really good golfer, you don't have to feel guilty about imagining the two of you golfing together. 11 - If your regular golf partner isn't available, he/she won't object if you golf with someone else. 10 - Nobody will ever tell you that you can go blind if you golf by yourself. 9 - When dealing with a golf pro, you never have to wonder if they are really an undercover cop. 8 - You don't have to go to a sleazy shop in a seedy neighborhood to buy golf stuff. 7 - You can have a golf calendar on your wall at the office, tell golf jokes, and invite coworkers to golf with you without getting sued for harassment. 6 - There's no such thing as a golf transmitted disease. 5 - If you want to watch golf on television, you don't have to subscribe to a premium cable channel. 4 - Nobody expects you to promise to golf with just one partner for the rest of your life. 3 - Nobody expects you to give up golfing if your partner loses interest in the game. 2 - You don't have to be a newlywed to plan a vacation primarily for the enjoyment of golf. 1 - Your golf partner will never say, "What?

There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend, that you comb through annals of history but not a single annal? ********************************************************************** If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell another? Have you noticed that we talk about certain things only when they are absent? Have you ever seen a horseful carriage or a strapful gown? Met a sung hero or experienced requited love? Have you ever run into someone who was combobulated, gruntled, ruly or peccable? And where are all those people who ARE spring chickens or who would ACTUALLY hurt a fly? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and.........In which an alarm goes off by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race which, of course, isn't a race at all. 2001 May 25 ALCOHOL WARNINGS Due to increasing products liability litigation, American liquor manufacturers have accepted the FDA's suggestion that the following warning labels be placed immediately on all containers: WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may leave you wondering what the hell happened to your bra.

Driver: I don't have one. I had it suspended when I got my 5th DUI. Officer: May I see the registration for this vehicle? Driver: It's not my car. I stole it. Officer: The car is stolen? Driver: That's right. But come to think of it, I think I saw the owner's card in the glove box when I was putting my gun in there. Officer: There's a gun in the glove box? Driver: Yes sir. That's where I put it after I shot and killed the woman who owns this car and stuffed her in the trunk. Officer: There's a BODY in the TRUNK?!?!? Driver: Yes, sir. Hearing this, the officer immediately called his captain. The car was quickly surrounded by police, and the captain approached the driver to handle the tense situation: Captain: Sir, can I see your license? Driver: Sure. Here it is. It was valid. Captain: Who's car is this? Driver: It's mine, officer. Here's the registration. The driver owned the car. Captain: Could you slowly open your glove box so I can see if there's a gun in it? Driver: Yes, sir, but there's no gun in it. Sure enough, there was nothing in the glove box. Captain: Would you mind opening your trunk? I was told you said there's a body in it. Driver: No problem. Trunk is opened; no body. Captain: I don't understand it. The officer who stopped you said you told him you didn't have a license, stole the car, had a gun in the glove box, and that there was a dead body in the trunk. Driver: Yeah, I'll bet the lying son of a bitch told you I was speeding, too!
