Ladies. A true sign of love is when your man texts you when he's playing FIFA. Nah just kidding. It must be half time.

Here's one from years ago....
The famous Olympic skier Picabo Street (pronounced Peek-A-Boo) is not just an athlete...she is now a nurse currently working at the Intensive Care Unit of a large metropolitan hospital. She is not permitted to answer the hospital telephones. It caused too much confusion when she would answer the phone and say, * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Picabo, ICU !

I currently working up in Liverpool, and as you'd expect there are loads of jokes about scousers and their mischievious ways.
I'm not a great one for jokes about stereotypes. Well, actually around here it's just 'types, cos someone nicked the stereo'.

Better than a Flu Shot!
Miss Beatrice, The church organist, was in her eighties and had never been married. She was admired for her sweetness and kindness to all. One afternoon the pastor came to call on her and she showed him into her quaint sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea. As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, the young minister noticed a cute glass bowl sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled with water, and in the water floated, of all things, a condom! When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat. The pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him and he could no longer resist. 'Miss Beatrice', he said, 'I wonder if you would tell me about this?' pointing to the bowl. 'Oh, yes,' she replied, 'Isn't it wonderful? I was walking through the park a few months ago and I found this little package on the ground. The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease. Do you know I haven't had the flu All winter.'

A magician had been working on a cruise ship for 5 years. He gave the same show each time - never changing his tricks. There was a parrot in the nightclub where he gave his show. The parrot became so bored with seeing the same tricks, that he began calling out - during the trick - things like, “It’s in his palm.” or “He’s got a duplicate up his sleeve.” or “There’s a hidden compartment.”
One night, during the show, the ship hit an iceberg and sank. Everyone drowned, and the ship went immediately to the bottom of the ocean. All that was left was one piece of debris, with the parrot perched on one end, and the magician clinging to the other.
Hours passed - the two just staring at each other. Finally, the parrot said, “Okay, I give up. Where’s the ship?”

I found a tin of meat in the cupboard, and as soon as I opened it, 20 more tins appeared. Bloody Spam.

A man walks out to the street and catches a taxi just going by. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, 'Perfect timing. You're just like Frank.'
Passenger: 'Who?'
Cabbie: 'Frank Feldman. He's a guy who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happened like that to Frank Feldman every single time.'
Passenger: 'There are always a few clouds over everybody.'
Cabbie: 'Not Frank Feldman. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy.'
Passenger: 'Sounds like he was something really special.'
Cabbie: 'There's more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered everybody's birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Frank Feldman, could do everything right. '
Passenger: 'Wow, some guy then.'
Cabbie: 'He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Frank, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too - He was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Frank Feldman.'
Passenger: 'An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?'
Cabbie: "Well, I never actually met Frank. He died and I married his feckin' wife."
