    I've seen this before, many years ago ... and think it's fabulous. [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Think I read it's at a Police dog training centre and that is the "house cat".

    [​IMG] Some people never seem motivated to participate, but

    at finding fault with the way others do the work.
    They are called "Comment Taters".
    -------
    Some people are very bossy and like to tell others what
    to do, but don't want to soil their own hands.
    They are called "Dick Taters".
    -------
    Some people are always looking to cause problems by

    ------
    Then there are those who love others and do what they
    say they will. They are always prepared to stop whatever
    they are doing and lend a helping hand. They bring real
    sunshine into the lives of others.
    They are called "Sweet Taters".

    :D Devil in the Church..

    One Sunday morning, everyone in one bright, beautiful, tiny town got up early and went to the local church.

    Before the services started, the townspeople were sitting in their pews and talking about their lives, their families, etc. Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the church. Everyone started screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling each other in a frantic effort to get away from evil incarnate.

    Soon everyone was evacuated from the church, except for one elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew, not moving... seemingly oblivious to the fact that God's ultimate enemy was in his presence. Now this confused Satan a bit, so he walked up to the man and said, "Don't you know who I am?"

    The man replied, "Yep, sure do."

    Satan asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

    "Nope, sure ain't," said the man.

    Satan was a little perturbed at this and queried, "Why aren't you afraid of me?"

    The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for over 48 years." !!! :D :D

    [​IMG] Just had this one sent to me from downunder too.... :D

    :D THE BEST COMEBACK LINE


    For those that don't know him, Major General Peter Cosgrove is an 'Australian treasure!'
    General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently. You'll love his reply to the lady who
    interviewed him concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws
    you gotta love this! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.
    It is a portion of an ABC interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a
    Boy Scout Troop visiting his military headquarters.

    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?

    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery and shooting.

    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?

    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.

    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?

    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.

    FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
    But you're equipping them to become violent killers.

    GENERAL COSGROVE:
    Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you? :D :D :D

    :D ;) Just had this one sent to me & I couldn't resist posting it... :D

    ;) Prince Charles decided to take up jogging, and every day he'd jog past a hooker standing on the same street corner. He learned to brace himself as he approached for what was almost certain to follow:

    "One hundred and fifty pounds!" she'd shout from the curb. "No! Five pounds!" he would fire back, just to shut her up.

    This ritual between him and the hooker became a daily occurrence. He'd run by and she'd yell, "One hundred and fifty pounds!" He'd yell back, "Five pounds!"

    One day, Camilla decided that she wanted to accompany her husband on his jog. As the jogging couple neared the working woman's street corner, Prince Charles realized she'd bark out her �£150 offer, and Camilla would wonder what he'd really been doing on all his past outings. He figured he'd better have a good explanation for his wife.

    As they jogged into the turn that would take them past the corner, he became even more apprehensive than usual. Sure enough, there was the hooker. He tried to avoid her eyes as she watched the pair jog past.
    Then, from her corner, the hooker yelled, "See what you get for five pounds, you tight illegitimate child?!"
