Re: Best of the Rest of the World
Sat Nav
I have a little Satnav
It sits there in my car
A Satnav is a driver's friend
It tells you where you are
I have a little Satnav
I've had it all my life
It's better than the normal ones
My Satnav is my wife
It gives me full instructions
Especially how to drive
"It's thirty miles an hour", it says
"You're doing thirty five"
It tells me when to stop and start
And when to use the brake
And tells me that it's never ever
Safe to overtake
It tells me when a light is red
And when it goes to green
It seems to know instinctively
Just when to intervene
It lists the vehicles just in front
And all those to the rear
And taking this into account
It specifies my gear.
I'm sure no other driver
Has so helpful a device
For when we leave and lock the car
It still gives its advice
It fills me up with counselling
Each journey's pretty fraught
So why don't I exchange it
And get a quieter sort?
Ah well, you see, it cleans the house,
Makes sure I'm properly fed,
It washes all my shirts and things
And keeps me warm in bed!
Despite all these advantages
And my tendency to scoff
I only wish that now and then
I could turn the bu**er off

Subject: Chinese Torture
A young man was lost wandering in a forest, when he came upon a small house.
He knocked on the door and was greeted by a very old Chinese man with a long, gray beard.
"I'm lost," said the man. "Can you put me up for the night?"
"Certainly," the Chinese man said, "but on one condition. If you so much as lay a finger on my daughter, I will inflict upon you the three worst Chinese tortures known to man."
"Ok," said the man, thinking that the daughter must be pretty old given her father's age, and entered the house.
Before dinner, the daughter came down the stairs. She was young, beautiful, and had a fantastic figure. She was obviously attracted to the young man since she couldn't keep her eyes off him during the meal. Remembering the old man's warning, he ignored her and went up to bed alone.
But during he night, he could bear it no longer, and sneaked into her room for a night of passion. He was careful to keep everything quiet so the old man wouldn't hear. Near dawn he crept back to his room, exhausted, but happy.
He woke to feel a pressure on his chest. Opening his eyes he saw a large rock on his chest with a note on it that read, "Chinese Torture 1: Large rock on chest."
"Well, that's pretty pathetic," he thought. "If that's the best the old man can do then I don't have much to worry about."
He picked the large rock, walked over to the window and threw it out. As he did so he noticed another note on it that read: "Chinese Torture 2: Rock tied to left testicle."
In a panic he glanced down and saw the rope was already getting close to the end. Figuring that a few broken bones was better than castration, he jumped out of the window after the boulder.
As he plummeted downward he saw a large sign on the ground that read, "Chinese Torture 3: Right testicle tied to bedpost."

Re: Best of the Rest of the World
This made me laugh, so I'll put it in the joke section.
Yes, a crime but I ask what ever happened to plain old shoplifting by kids? Their choice of products though reinforces my belief that horny, red blooded teenagers still exist!

Teen beer-theft gang arrested
Published: 8/01/2013 at 06:21 PM
Online news: Crimes
PATHUM THANI : Ten teenagers, nine of them minors, have been arrested over a series of armed robberies of beer and condoms at convenience stores in Lam Luk Ka and Thanyaburi districts during the New Year's holiday, police said.
The 10 youths, nine of them between 15 and 17, were brought to a press conference at the Pathum Thani police's Crime Suppression Centre on Tuesday.
During the arrests, police said they seized two homemade guns, a machete, three motorcycles and a stolen mobile phone.
On Dec 21, a gang of youths, armed with guns and a cleaver, stormed into Tesco Lotus Express convenience store in Thanyaburi district, grabbed assorted cans of beers and condoms, and got away on motorcycles. They also stole a mobile phone from a staff member at the store, provincial police chief Samithi Mookdasanit, said.
Youths from the same group allegedly carried out similar robberies at two branches of Tesco Lotus Express in Lam Luk Ka district - one in Soi Paholyothin 39 on Dec 25, and the other in the Klong 3 area last Sunday.
Pol Maj-Gen Samithi said footage taken from security cameras at the three robbed stores had images of the gang members, and witnesses confirmed their identities. The accused gang members all lived in the Rangsit area of Thanyaburi district, he added.

Re: Best of the Rest of the World
This beautiful woman one day walks into a doctors office and the doctor is bowled over by how stunningly awesome she is. All his professionalism goes right out the window...
He tells her to take off her pants, she does, and he starts rubbing her thighs.
"Do you know what I am doing?" asks the doctor?
"Yes, checking for abnormalities." she replies.
He tells her to take off her shirt and bra, she takes them off. The doctor begins rubbing her breasts and asks, "Do you know what I am doing now?", she replies, "Yes, checking for cancer."
Finally, he tells her to take off her panties, lays her on the table, gets on top of her and starts having sex with her. He says to her, "Do you know what I am doing now?"
She replies, "Yes, getting the clap - that's why I am here!"

"Older Men Scam"
Women often receive warnings about protecting themselves at the mall and in dark parking lots, etc. This is the first warning I have seen for men. I wanted to pass it on in case you haven't heard about it. A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular customers at Bunnings, Mitre 10, or even K-Mart. This one caught me totally by surprise. Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.
Here's how the scam works; Two nice looking, teenage girls will come over to your car or truck as you are packing your purchases into your vehicle. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. (It's impossible not to look.) When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' but instead ask for a ride to McDonald's.
You agree and they climb into the vehicle. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen July 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, again on the 17th, 20th, 24th, and the 29th. Also August 1st, 4th, 8th, twice on the 16th & 17th, 25th and 26th and very likely again this upcoming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take advantage of us older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.
Target has wallets on sale for $2.99 each. I found even cheaper ones for $0.99 at the Reject Shop and bought them out in three of their stores. Also, you never get to eat at McDonald's. I've already lost 11 pounds just running back and forth from Target and K Mart.
So please, send this on to all the retired men that you know and warn them to be on the lookout for this scam. (The best times are just before lunch and around 4:30 in the afternoon.)

Re: Best of the Rest of the World
I was at the bar the other night and overheard three very hefty women talking at the bar.
Their accent appeared to be Scottish, so I approached and asked, "Hello, are you three lassies from Scotland ?"
One of them angrily screeched, "It's Wales, Wales you bloody idiot!"
So I apologized and replied, "I am so sorry. Are you three whales from Scotland ?"
And that's the last thing I remember.

The Williams sisters were recently discussing the problem of drugs in
the warm-up room before a doubles match.
"I think Dad might be slipping us steroids," whispered Serena.
"What makes you say that?" replied a stunned Venus.
"Well", started Serena embarrassingly, "I've started to grow hair on
parts of my body that have never had hair before!"
"Shit ... like where?" Venus asked.
"Like, all over my balls!" Serena replied.

Sweet Revenge
A guy is looking for a place to sit in a crowded library.
He asked a girl in a university library: "Do you mind if I sit beside you?
The girl replied with a loud voice: "I DON 'T WANT TO SPEND THE NIGHT WITH YOU!"
All the students in the library started staring at the guy; he was
truly embarrassed and moved to another table.
After a couple of minutes, the girl walked quietly to the guy 's table
and said with a laugh
"I study psychology, and I know what a man is thinking. I guess you
felt embarrassed, right?
The guy then responded with a loud voice: $500 FOR ONE NIGHT? . . .
THAT 'S TOO MUCH!
All the people in the library looked at the girl in shock.
The guy whispered in her ear: "I study law, and I know how to screw people".

Meet Walter Barnes - All golfers should live so long as to become this kind of old man!
All responded this time, except one man, Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad.
"Mr. Barnes, it's obviously not a good morning for golf. It's good to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
"I don't have any," he replied gruffly.
"Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are you?"
"Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands
"Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front and tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years and not have an enemy in the world?"
The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply,
"I outlived all them assholes."
And he calmly returned to his seat.
Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?" 80% held up their hands. The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one man, Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad.
