Yeah, I assumed that it was an Australian airline.
I always seem to think Australian/European humour is much funnier than American humour. I am so out of place over here or something. :upset: |

I ordered some new strings today. D'Addario Half-Rounds .055-.110. Heavy *** strings. Got 'em from bassguitarstrings.us. I'm excited. Yay. :smash:

That's weird. I'm in the dorms at university right now and close to 100 people started having a random party in the parking lot. :confused: It lasted five minuted then they dispersed. The funny part is, almost everyone was gone, then the cops arrived. "Jeez guys, it's the fuzz!" Gotta love the Outsiders. Anyway, I'm out, it's 2 a.m. and I've got a test on The Satyricon in the morning. :wave:

Good stuff. I discovered DR and for all intensive purposes I will not really use anything else, except Warwick Red Lables becasue they are cheap. I do however love D'Addario Chromes for my fretless. |

I mean, if they are terribly injured from the fall, then, yes, it isn't funny. I find it funny, though, if you and your mate are just walking along talking, and then, all of a sudden, he/she trips or stumbles a bit. It is mainly their facial expression that I find the funniest because they always look so ridiculously goofy. |
[COLOR=#6365ce]A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her
nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack. So he says, ''Ms. Whack, I'd like to get a loan to buy a boat and go on a holiday.'' Patti looks at the frog in disbelief and asks him how much he wants to borrow. The frog says $30,000. The teller asks his name and the frog says it's Kermit Jagger and that it's ok, he knows the bank manager. Patti explains that $30,000 is a substantial amount of money and that he would need to secure some collateral against the loan and asks if he has anything he can use as collateral. The frog says ''Sure, I have this'' and produces a tiny pink elephant, about half an inch tall. Bright pink and perfectly formed. Very confused, Patti explains that she'll have to consult with the manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says: ''There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow 30 grand. And he wants to use this as collateral''. She holds up the tiny pink elephant. ''I mean, what is this?'' The bank manager replies: ''It's a knick-knack Patti Whack. Give the frog a loan, his old man's a Rolling Stone''.[/COLOR] |
:lol:
Alright, that was my last laugh for the night. Thanks for those! I am off to sleep now. Have a good rest of your day! |

They get embarassed, we laugh, they get more embarassed. Thats the funny part. |

[FONT=verdana][SIZE=2][COLOR=#6365ce]By the time John pulled into the little town, every hotel room was taken. “You’ve got to
have a room somewhere,” he pleaded. “Or just a bed – I don’t care where.” “Well, I do have a double room with one occupant,” admitted the manager, “and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. I’m not sure it’d be worth it to you.” “No problem,” the tired traveler assured him. “I’ll take it.” The next morning John came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. The manager was impressed. “No problem with the other guy snoring, then?” “Nope. I shut him up in no time?” “How’d you manage that?” “He was already in bed, snoring away. When I came in the room,” John said. “I went over, gave him a kiss on the cheek, said, “Goodnight, beautiful,” and he sat up all night watching me!” [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] |
