A lawyer dies in a car accident on his 40th birthday and finds himself greeted at the Pearly Gates by a brass band. Saint Peter runs, over, shakes his hand and says, 'Congratulations!' 'Congratulations for what?' asks the lawyer. 'We're celebrating the fact that you lived to be 160 years old.' 'But that's not true,' says the lawyer. 'I only lived to be forty.' 'That's impossible,' replies Saint Peter. 'We've added up your time sheets.'

Johnny: Seven, Sir.
Teacher: No, listen carefully... If I gave you 2 cats, and another 2 cats and another 2, how many will you have?
Johnny: Seven, Sir.

Johnny: Six.
Teacher: Good. Now if I gave you 2 cats, and another 2 cats and another 2, how many would you have?
Johnny: Seven!!! SIR!

A very angry Johnny: Because I've already got a cat at home!!!!!!!

Returning Flight URK123 from the tropical Urkney Isles was coming in to land at Heathrurk Airpurk. The captain had made the usual cheery yet informative announcement to the captives - I mean, "pasengers" - and in the excitement of the landing drill had forgotten to flick off the mike.
His voice flooded the 'plane: "Jim, when I land I'm gonna have me a long, cold pint and then make mad, passionate luuurve to our new stewardess !!"
Said new stewardess at the rear of the aircraft rushes up the main gangway to tell the cap'n to switch off before he makes any more embarrassing remarks. Unfortunately she trips over the outstretched foot of an elderly lady passenger and goes sprawling. The elderly lady retrieves the errant foot and regards the felled stewardess with kindly concern - "There there dearie, no need to rush, I distinctly heard him say he was going to have a pint first."

Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged.
However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital.
After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator.
On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him..
'I don't know,' he said.
'She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown.'
