Once there was a millionaire who collected live alligators.  He kept them in the pool in back of his mansion. The millionaire also had a beautiful single daughter. 

So one day he decides to throw a huge party, and during the party he announces: “My dear guests, I have a proposition to every man here.  I will give one million dollars or my daughter to the man that can swim across this pool full of alligators and emerge unharmed!”

As soon as he finished his last word there was the sound of a large SPLASH!  One guy was in the pool, swimming as fast as he could, with the crowd was cheering him on.  Finally he made it to the other side, miraculously unharmed.

The millionaire was impressed. “My boy that was incredible!  Fantastic!  I didn’t think it could be done!  Well I must keep my end of the bargain. Which do you want: my daughter or the one million dollars?”

The guy says, “Listen, I don’t want your money!  And I don’t want your daughter!  I just want the name of the guy who pushed me into that pool!

A poor vagabond, traveling a country road in England, tired and hungry, came to a roadside inn with a sign reading: “George and the Dragon.”

He knocked gently on the door and the innkeeper’s wife stuck her head out a window.

“Could ye spare some victuals?” he asked politely.

The woman glanced at his shabby clothes and obviously poor condition. “No!” she said rather sternly.

“Could I just have a pint of ale?”

“No!” she said again.

“Could I at least sleep in your stable?”

“No!” by this time she was fairly shouting.

The vagabond said, “Might I please — “

“What now?” the woman interrupted impatiently.

“D’ye suppose,” he asked, “I might have a word with George?”

A customer sent a large order to a distributor.

The distributor noticed that the previous bill hadn’t been paid so they sent a message: “We can’t ship your new order until you pay for the last one.”

The next day the reply came: “Please cancel the order. We can’t wait that long.”

In the Phoenix airport, they announced that the flight to Vegas was full. 

The airline was looking for volunteers to give up their seats. In exchange, they’d give you a $100 voucher for your next flight and a first class seat in the plane leaving an hour later. About eight people ran up to the counter to take advantage of the offer.

About 15 seconds later all eight of those people sat down grumpily as the lady behind the ticket counter said, “If there is anyone else OTHER than the flight crew who’d like to volunteer, please step forward.”

A lady was having a bad day at the roulette tables in Vegas and she was down to her last $50.

Exasperated, she exclaimed, “What rotten luck! What in the world should I do now?”

A man standing next to her suggested, “I don’t know… why don’t you play your age?” and walked away.

Moments later, his attention was grabbed by a great commotion at the roulette table. “Maybe she won!” he thought. Rushing back to the table and pushing his way through the crowd he found the lady lying limp on the floor, with the table operator kneeling over her.

The man was stunned. He asked, “What happened? Is she all right?”

The operator replied, “I don’t know. She put all her money on 29 and 47 came up. Then she just fainted!”

They all asked the farmer how it tasted.

ALL I REALLY NEED TO KNOW I LEARNED FROM NOAH’S ARK 

1. Plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark. 

2. Stay fit. When you’re 600 years old, someone might ask you to do something REALLY big. 

3. Don’t listen to critics — do what has to be done. 

4. Build on high ground. 

5. For safety’s sake, travel in pairs. 

6. Two heads are better than one. 

7. Speed isn’t always an advantage. The cheetahs were on board, but so were the snails. 

8. If you can’t fight or flee — float.

9. Take care of your animals as if they were the last ones on earth. 

10. Don’t forget that we’re all in the same boat. 

11. When the doo-doo gets really deep, don’t sit there and complain — shovel.

12. Stay below deck during the storm. 

13. Remember that the ark was built by amateurs and the Titanic was built by professionals. 

14. If you have to start over, have a friend by your side. 

15. Remember that the woodpeckers INSIDE are often a bigger threat than the storm outside. 

16. Don’t miss the boat. 

17. No matter how bleak it looks, there’s always a rainbow on the other side.

The secret of a good sermon is to have a good beginning and a good ending; and to have the two as close together as possible.

A man was very sick. Doctors feared the worst. He is at home one day, resting in his bed. He looks up and says, “Is my wife here?”

His wife replies, “Yes, dear, I’m here, next to you.”

The man goes, “Are my children here?”

“Yes, Daddy, we are all here,” say the children.

“Are my other relatives also here?”

And they say, “Yes, we are all here…”

The man sits up and says, “Then why in the world is the light on in the kitchen?”
