Hi all, I live in a farm just outside of Edinburgh. I love animals and am visited every night by 9 Badgers and a fox, probably because I feed them. My hobbies are Scuba diving, Astronomy. I always stick up for the people whom I feel get a raw deal or are being bullied, and dislike people who get a cheap laugh at others expense. I love a laugh.

  • A man walks into a bar.?

    A man walks into a bar with a paper bag.

    He sits down and places the bag on the counter.

    The bartender walks up and asks what's in the bag.

    The man reaches into the bag and pulls out a little man, about 9 inches high and sets him on the counter.

    He reaches back into the bag and pulls out a small piano, setting it on the counter as well.

    He reaches into the bag once again and pulls out a tiny piano bench, which he places in front of the piano.

    The little man sits down at the piano, and starts playing a beautiful Piece by Mozart!

    'Where on earth did you get that?' says the bartender.

    The man responds by reaching into the paper bag.

    This time he pulls out a magic lamp. He hands it to the bartender and says:

    'Here. Rub it.'

    So the bartender rubs the lamp, and suddenly there's a gust of smoke and a

    beautiful genie is standing before him.

    'I will grant you one wish.. Just one wish... Each person is only allowed one!'

    The bartender gets real excited. Without hesitating he says, 'I want a million bucks!'

    A few moments later, a duck walks into the bar. It is soon followed byanother duck, then another.

    Pretty soon, the entire bar is filled with ducks and they just keep coming, duck after duck after duck!

    The bartender turns to the man and says, 'Y'know, I think your Genie'sa

    little deaf. I asked for a million bucks, not a million Ducks.'

    'No ****!!' says the man........ 'do you really think I asked for a 9 inch pianist?'

  • Have you heard about the Roman Candle

    Roman candle?

    Mrs O'Donovan was walking down O'Connell Street in Dublin , and coming in the opposite direction was Father O'Rafferty.

    "Hello," said the Father, "and how is Mrs O'Donovan? Didn't I marry you two years ago?"

    She replied, "You did that, Father."

    "And be there any little ones yet?"

    "No, not yet, Father," said she.

    "Well now, I'm going to Rome next week, so I'll light a candle for you."

    "Oh, thank you, Father." And away she went.

    Some years later they met again. "Well now, Mrs O'Donovan," said the Father. "How are you?"

  • Hope you haven't heard this one. Another Blonde joke.?

    A man met a beautiful blonde lady and decided he wanted to marry her right away.

    She said, 'But we don't know anything about each other.'

    He said, 'That's all right, we'll learn about each other as we go along.'

    So she consented, they were married, and off they went on a honeymoon at a very nice resort.

    One morning they were lying by the pool, when he got up off of his towel, climbed up to the 10 meter board and did a two and a half tuck, followed by three rotations in the pike position, at which point he straightened out and cut the water like a knife.

    After a few more demonstrations, he came back and lay down on the towel.

    She said, 'That was incredible!'

    He said, 'I used to be an Olympic diving champion. You see, I told you we'd learn more about each other as we went along.'

    So she got up, jumped in the pool and started doing lengths. After seventy-five lengths she climbed out of the pool, lay down on her towel and was hardly out of breath.

    He said, 'That was incredible! Were you an Olympic endurance swimmer?'

    'No,' she said, 'I was a prostitute in Liverpool but I worked both sides of the Mersey !

  • The Bear in Alaska?

    A man wakes up one morning in Alaska to find a bear on his roof. So he looks in the yellow pages and sure enough, there's an ad for 'Bear Removers.' He calls the number, and the bear remover says he'll be over in 30 minutes.

    The bear remover arrives, and gets out of his van. He's got a ladder, a baseball bat, a shotgun and a mean old pit bull.

    'What are you going to do,' the homeowner asks?

    'I'm going to put this ladder up against the roof, and then I'm going to go up there and knock the bear off the roof with this baseball bat. When the bear falls off, the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles and not let go. The bear will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van.'

    He hands the shotgun to the homeowner.

    'What's the shotgun for?' asks the homeowner.

    * 'If the bear knocks me off the roof, shoot the dog.

  • The Tax Man and the Prostitute.?

    A woman walks into an accountant's office and tells him that she needs to file her taxes.

    The accountant says, 'Before we begin, I'll need to ask you a few

    questions.'

    He gets her name, address, social security number, etc. and then asks,

    'What's your occupation?'

    'I'm a Lady of the night,' she says.

    The accountant is somewhat taken aback and says, ' Let's try to rephrase that.'

    The woman says, 'OK, I'm a high-end call girl'..

    'No, that still won't work. Try again.'

    They both think for a minute; then the woman says, 'I'm an elite chicken farmer.'

    The accountant asks, 'What does chicken farming have to do with being a prostitute?'

    'Well, I raised a thousand little peckers last year'

    'Chicken Farmer it is.'
