Q: Why don’t blind people go skydiving?
A: It scares the hell out of the dog.

There were three ninjas, and each thought they were the best ninja in the land. So, one day, they went to the old master and asked him who was the best ninja in the land.
“Hmm…,” he replied, “we shall see.”
The next morning, the three ninjas met by the riverbank with the old master. He withdrew a small box from underneath his robes and went to the first ninja.
He opened the box, and a fly flew out. With one swish of his sword, the first ninja sliced the fly neatly in half.
“Very impressive,” said the old man, “but we shall see.”
He went to the second ninja. The ninja’s sword swished through the air twice, and the fly fell neatly into four pieces.
“Very impressive,” said the old man, “but we shall see.”
He then went to the third ninja and took out a small box. The ninja swished his sword, and the fly flew away.
The third ninja stood with a smug look on his face.
“Why do you look so prideful? You failed; the fly flew away!” the old man said.
“Yes,” the third ninja said, “but he will never have children.”

Why did the elephant change his socks? Because they were dirty.
Why do elephants paint their toenails red, yellow, orange, green, and brown? So they can hide in a bag of M&Ms.
Which elephants live in the Arctic? Cold ones.
How can you tell if there are three elephants in the bathtub with you? You count them.

Buddy Hackett told this one:

This guy is driving down the road at about 45 mph when he notices a chicken running beside him on the passenger side keeping up. This amazes him so he decides to speed up a bit. Now he’s doing 50 and the chicken is right there next to him. It’s at this time he notices the chicken has three legs. He increases his speed to 55 and the chicken leaps out ahead of him and crosses over in front of him and runs down a side street.
The guy slams on his breaks turns around and follows the chicken up the side street. There standing in the road is this farmer. The guy asks the farmer if he’s seen a three-legged chicken go by and the farmer says yep, matter of fact that’s my chicken. I raise three legged chickens. To which the guy asks, why would anyone raise three legged chickens? The farmer says well now think about it. Do you like drumsticks? Yes, the guy says. and your wife? Does she like drumsticks? Of course, says the guy. Well now suppose you have a guest over for dinner and he likes drumsticks? That’s pure genius says the guy. How do they taste? he asks the farmer and the farmer replies, I don’t know, we’ve never caught one.

It’s Funny Friday. By my stan dards.

I put a bet on a horse that had excellent breeding. After the horse left the starting gate, he stopped and closed it behind him.

I put a bet on a horse to come in at 10 to 1—and it did. Unfortunately all the others came in at 12:30.

What’s black and white and eats like a horse? A zebra.

Some racehorses are staying in a stable. One of them starts to boast about his track record. “In the last 15 races, I’ve won eight of them!”
Another horse breaks in: “Well in the last 27 races, I’ve won 19!”
“Oh that’s good, but in the last 36 races, I’ve won 28!” says another.
At this point, the horses notice a greyhound, who has been sitting there listening. “I don’t mean to boast,” says the greyhound, “but in my last 90 races, I’ve won 88 of them!”
The horses are clearly amazed. “Wow!” says one, after a hushed silence. “A talking dog!”

Three boys see a fire engine with a dog go by and discuss what his job is. “Crowd control?” says one boy. “He’s the mascot,” says the second boy. The third boy nods sagely: “He finds fire hydrants.”

A woman brings her parrot to the vet. The parrot is stiff and lifeless.
“I’m sorry ma’am, but this parrot is dead.”
“How can you tell so quickly?” replies the woman. “Isn’t there a way to be absolutely certain?”
So, the vet whistles and a beautiful black Labrador Retriever walks in the examining room. The Lab sniffs around the parrot for a few moments, then looks at the vet with sad eyes and shakes his head.
“A dog shakes its head and I’m supposed to believe that?!” cries the woman. “You’re going to have to do more to prove that my poor parrot is dead!”
So the vet leaves momentarily, comes back with a cat and puts it on the table beside the parrot. The cat looks closely at the parrot, walks around it, prods it a bit, then shakes his head and jumps off the table.
Finally, the woman seems convinced. As she turns for the door, the vet announces that she owes him $500.
“$500?!” the woman asks. “How in the world could it be that much just to tell me my parrot is dead?”
“Well, it would have been a lot cheaper, but with that lab report and cat scan….”

A dog walks into a pub, and takes a seat. He says to the barman, “Can I have a pint of lager and a packet of crisps please.”
The barman says, “Wow, that’s amazing! You should join the circus!”
The dog replies, “Why? Do they need electricians?

Some of what passes for my sense of humor….

It seems there were two frogs sitting on a lily pad, when all of a sudden, a fly came along. One frog put out his tongue, ate the fly, and started laughing hysterically. Soon the other frog joined in the laughter.
Later in the day, the other frog ate a fly and the two frogs burst out in laughter. As time went on, the frogs enjoyed the flies so much that the sight of a fly would cause them to double up with pleasure. But of course, the most pleasure came when the fly was actually eaten.
A third frog hopped up to the first two and asked what was so funny.
The first frog answered “Time.”
“Huh?” asked the third frog.
The second frog explained: “Time’s fun when you’re having flies.”

A king carried environmentalism too far when he prohibited hunting of any kind. Soon the realm was overrun with lions and tigers and bears.
“Oh My!” shouted the people. They revolted and threw the king out of the country. It was the first time the reign was called because of the game.

When Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb, he had trouble selling it. People just didn’t trust this “new” way of making light. In order to promote his idea he decided to go around the country installing lights in different towns in order to drum up publicity. While in Oklahoma, Edison stopped by an Indian reservation and offered to put lights in any building they wanted. After much thought the Indian chief decided that he wanted lights in his outhouse, so he could see what he was doing at night. This made him the first man to wire a head for a reservation.

What goes down but never goes up?

What’s the difference between a tax auditor and a rottweiler?
A rottweiler eventually lets go.

There are just two rules for creating a successful accountancy business:
Number 1: Don’t tell them everything you know. Number 2: [Redacted]

I’m proud to pay taxes in the United States; the only thing is, I could be just as proud for half the money.
—Arthur Godfrey

A tax loophole is something that benefits the other guy. If it benefits you, it is tax reform.
—Senator Russell Long

People who complain about taxes can be divided into two classes: men and women.
—Unknown

The IRS tax agents decide to audit an elderly man, and summon him to the IRS office. The IRS auditor was not surprised when the old man showed up with his attorney.
The auditor said, “Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time employment, which you explain by saying that you win money gambling. I’m not sure the IRS finds that believable.”
“I’m a great gambler, and I can prove it”, says the elderly guy. “How about a demonstration?”
The auditor thinks for a moment and says, “Okay. Go ahead.”
The old guy says,”‘I’ll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye.”
The auditor thinks a moment and says, “It’s a bet.”
The elderly guy removes his glass eye and bites it. The auditor’s jaw drops. The old guy then says, “Now, I’ll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other eye.”
The auditor can tell he isn’t blind, so he takes the bet. The elderly guy removes his dentures and bites his good eye.
The stunned auditor now realises he has wagered and lost three grand, with his attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous.
“Want to go double or nothing?” the elderly person asks. “I’ll bet you six thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk, and pee into that wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in between.”
The auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides there’s no way this old guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees again.
The old guy stands beside the desk and unzips his pants, but although he strains mightily, he can’t make the stream reach the wastebasket on the other side, so he pretty much urinates all over the auditor’s desk.
The auditor leaps with joy, realising that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win, but the elderly guy’s attorney moans and puts his head in his hands.
“Are you okay?” the auditor asks.
“Not really,” says the attorney. “This morning, when he told me he’d been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that he could come in here and pee all over your desk and that you’d be happy about it.”
