Me... to grandson: You know, we've been talking about your wish to be a pirate when you grow up. Did you know... as a child, I was forced to 'walk the plank' regularly?
Grandson: Why... were you bad that often?
Me: No, it was because we couldn't afford a dog.

There aint no Safeway.
"para todo mal, mezcal, y para todo bien también" (for everything bad, mezcal, and for everything good, as well.)
But then along came a Piggly Wiggly and he showed them a Pathmark left by the Giant.

There were two no-shows, but I still had a good time.

A friend from Scotland asked me -- "Did you see there's a new BilgeRat... from Oklahoma, I think - named Lance. Is that a common name in the U.S.?"
I told him I thought it was origninally a British name, and not common so much these days...
But that in Medieval Times... people there were named Lancelot.

Way back when, a fellow anti-war protester and I were scouting the route of our next demonstration/march.
There were already Sherrif's deputies stationed along the way - in full gear including truncheons and pepper-spray guns. He asked me, "It's 6 am, why are the riot police already out?"
I told him, "To beat the crowds."

A Scotsman walks into a bar in Canada
He noticed there is an animal's head hanging on the wall and asked the bartender what it was.
"A moose" replied the bartender.
"Jesus christ! How big are the cats here?" asked the Scot.

Just don't try and use it on Sunday!
Just been for a check-up, which finished with a finger probing my back passage.
I've always had doubts about that dentist.
As the old actor once said, 'I always love a warm hand on my entrance'.
It's all fun and games until Darth Vader comes.
Just finished a surprisingly good book about great basements.

"Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl."
The priest asks, "Is that you, little Joey Pagano?"
"Yes, Father, it is."
"And who was the girl you were with?"
"I can't tell you, Father. I don't want to ruin her reputation."
"Well, Joey, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?"
"I cannot say."
"Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?"
"I'll never tell."
"Was it Nina Capelli?"
"I'm sorry, but I cannot name her."
"Was it Cathy Piriano?"
"My lips are sealed."
"Was it Rosa DiAngelo, then?"
"Please, Father! I cannot tell you."
The priest sighs in frustration. "You're very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and behave yourself."
Joey walks back to his pew, and his friend Franco slides over and whispers, "What'd you get?"
"Four months vacation and five good leads...
