A radio station was running a competition - words that weren't in the dictionary yet could still be used in a sentence that would make logical sense. The prize was a trip to Bali.
DJ: "96 FM here, what's your name?"
Caller: "Hi, my name's Dave."
DJ: "Dave, what's your word?"
Caller: "Goan... spelt G-O-A-N pronounced 'go-an'."
DJ: "You are correct, Dave, 'goan' is not in the dictionary. Now, for a trip to Bali: What sentence can you use that word in that would make sense?"
Caller: "Goan f**k yourself!"
The DJ cut the caller off and took other calls, all unsuccessful until:
DJ: "96 FM, what's your name?"
Caller: "Hi, me name's Jeff."
DJ: "Jeff, what's your word?"
Caller: "Smee, spelt S-M-E-E, pronounced 'smee'."
DJ: "You are correct, Jeff, 'smee' is not in the dictionary. Now, for a trip to Bali: What sentence can you use that word in that would make sense?"
Caller: "Smee again! Goan f**k yourself!"

Procrastination is excellent.
You always have something to do tomorrow, plus you have nothing to do today.

Back in the 80s, an Essex Girl sees an Irishman with L and R on his wellies and asks him why they have been marked as such. The Irishman, obliges and explains that he knows which way to but his boots on, L for his left foot and R for his right foot. The Essex Girl responds 'oh that's probably why my knickers have C&A or them'

Could be apocryphal but my daughter said that a friend of hers had told her that when working as a guide at Windsor Castle, she was asked by one our our Leftpondian cousins why the Queen had built her home underneath the Heathrow flight path.....

I swar this is true: my second wife was American and we got married in the US (Newport). We held a pre-wedding party and an elderly relative asked "do you have trees in England". I was also once in a taxi having an interesting conversation with the young black driver. It was in the run ups to the election and we were discussing in Obama had a chance of winning. I was impressed by this young guys reasoning and views. Then he blew it by asking if the UK was a tropical country.....

2 women in heaven...
1st woman: Hi! My name is queenie
2nd woman: Hi! I'm clem. How'd you die?
1st woman: I froze to death.
2nd woman: How horrible!
1st woman: It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I began to get warm an sleepy, and finally died a peaceful death. What about you...?
2nd woman: I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my husband was cheating, so I came home early to catch him in the act. But instead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV...
1st woman: So, what happened...?
2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman there somewhere that I started running all over the house looking. I ran up into the attic and searched,and down into the basement. Then I went through every closet and checked under all the beds. I kept this up until I had looked everywhere, and finally I became so exhausted that I just keeled over with a heart attack and died...
1st woman: Too bad you didn't look in the freezer---we'd both still be alive !!!

When I worked (in Europe ) for Americans (in Utah, Tennessee and Ohio), I used to get "What do your dollars look like?" a lot.
