"IT'S SO HOT IN  PALM SPRINGS THAT..."

 

The birds have to use pot holders to pull worms out of the ground.

 

The potatoes cook underground and all you have to do to have lunch is to pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.

 

Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying hard-boiled eggs.

 

IT'S SO DRY IN PALM SPRINGS THAT..."

 

The cows are giving evaporated milk.

 

The trees are whistling for the dogs.

 

A sad resident once prayed, "I wish it would rain - not so much for me, cuz  I've seen it - but for my 7-year old."

 

A visitor to Palm Springs once asked, "Does it ever rain out here?"   A rancher  quickly answered, "Yes, it does. Do you remember that part in the Bible where it rained for 40 days and 40 nights?"  The visitor replied, "Yes, I'm familiar with  Noah's flood."  "Well," said the rancher puffed up, "we got  about two and a half inches of that."

 

"YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN PALM SPRINGS WHEN..."

 

You no longer associate bridges (or rivers) with water.

 

You can say 110 degrees without fainting.

 

You eat hot chilies to cool your mouth off.

 

You can make instant sun tea.

 

You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.

 

When the temperature drops below 95, you feel a bit chilly.

 

You discover that in July, it takes only 2 fingers to drive your car.

 

You discover that you can get a sunburn through your car window.

 

You notice the best parking place is determined by shade instead of

distance.

 

Hot water now comes out of both taps.

 

It's noon in July, the kids are on summer vacation, and not one person is out on the streets.

 

You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

 

You break a sweat the instant you step outside and it's only 7:30 am.

 

No one would dream of putting vinyl upholstery in a car or not having air conditioning.

 

Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

 

You realize asphalt has a liquid state.

Story from Australia

 

A True Story from Australia:

 

From the Sydney Morning Herald comes this story of a central west couple who drove their car into a shopping centre only to have their car break down in the car park. The man told his wife to carry on with the shopping while he fixed the car.

 

The wife returned later to see a small group of people near the car. On closer  inspection she saw a pair of male legs protruding from under the chassis. Although the man was in shorts, his lack of underpants turned private parts into glaringly public ones.

 

Unable to stand the embarrassment she dutifully stepped forward and tucked

everything back into place. On regaining her feet she looked across the bonnet and found herself staring at her husband standing idly by.

 

The mechanic however had to have three stitches in his head

Jury Duty

 

A man was chosen for jury duty who very much wanted to be dismissed from serving. He tried every excuse he could think of but none of them worked. On the day of the trial he decided to give it one more shot. As the trial was about to begin he asked if he could approach the bench.

 

"Your Honor," he said, " I must be excused from this trial because I am prejudiced against the defendant. I took one look at the man in the blue suit with those beady eyes and that dishonest face and I said, "He's a crook! He's guilty, guilty, guilty." So your Honor, I could not possibly stay on this jury!"

 

With a tired annoyance the judge replied, "Get back in the jury box. That man is his lawyer."

     neo-fascist demagogues to right...

     neo-isolationist crackpots wait right here."

 4> "You've got to see this!  The Buchanan people have just built a 15 foot fence around the New Mexico delegation."

 

 3> "Okay, Mr. Perot, let's do another take.  Remember, your line is 'Yo quiero Taco Bell'."

 

 2> "No, I ordered the waffles.  The western omelet probably goes to the Libertarian Convention over in the next booth."

 

 1> "Now then, you see, this here big slice of the pie chart represents how much of my ass Pat Buchanan can kiss."

Medical Conference

 

When a group of doctors were told to contribute to the construction of a new

wing at a hospital the:

 

- allergists voted to scratch it;

- dermatologists preferred no rash moves;

- gastroenterologists had a gut feeling about it;

- microsurgeons were thinking along the same vein;

- neurologists thought the administration "had a lot of nerve";

- the obstetricians stated they were laboring under a misconception;

- ophthalmologists considered the idea short- sighted;

- orthopedists issued a joint resolution;

- parasitologists said, "Well, if you encyst";

- pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!";

- pediatricians said, "Grow up!";

- proctologists said, "We are in arrears";

- psychiatrists thought it was madness;

 

and finally, the surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.

 

- radiologists could see right through it;

- internists thought it was a hard pill to swallow;

- plastic surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter";

- podiatrists thought it was a big step forward;

- D.O.s thought they were being manipulated;

- urologists felt the scheme wouldn't hold water;

- anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas;

- cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no;

- the otologists were deaf to the idea.

 

Needless to say, the idea of contributing to a new wing didn't fly!

It's a Tough Crowd at the Open

 

This was in Wednesday's SF Chronicle...thought you'd all enjoy it.

 

British crowds know their golf. Tom Weiskopf, who won the British Open in 1973, can vouch for the fact that they applaud only the best shots.

 

According to Doug Ferguson of the Associated Press, Weiskopf recalled last week that he was playing a practice round with Jack Nicklaus and John O'Leary before the 1975 Open at Carnoustie.

 

When they got to the par-3 8th hole late in the afternoon, only a couple of spectators remained.  The wind was blowing hard from the left, and Weiskopf noticed two elderly gentlemen sitting on the left side of the green.  He tried to aim his tee shot at them and turn it into the wind.  The ball landed near the hole, but there was no response from the men.

 

He looked in the bunker. He walked beyond the green.  He searched in the trees.  Finally, Nicklaus told him. "Can you believe it?  Your ball's in the hole!"

 

As he left the green, Weiskopf turned to the two men and said, "Excuse me, but did you see my shot?"

 

"Yes, laddie, we saw your shot," they replied.

 

"It was a hole-in-one.  You didn't even clap," he said.

 

"Aye, laddie, but it's only practice, isn't it?"

Dog Days

 

A man wrote a letter to a small hotel in a Midwest town he planned to visit on his vacation.

 

He wrote: "I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well-groomed and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?"

 

An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who said, "I've been operating this hotel for many years. In all that time, I've never had a dog steal towels,  bedclothes, silverware or pictures off the walls. I've never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being drunk and disorderly. And I've never had a dog run out on a hotel bill. Yes, indeed, your dog is welcome at my hotel. And, if your dog will vouch for you, you're welcome to stay here, too."

Another great Little Johnny joke...

 

On Christmas morning, a cop on horseback was sitting at a traffic light, and next to him was little Johnny on his shiny new bike.

 

The cop said to Johnny, "Nice bike you got there. Did Santa bring that to you?"

 

Johnny answered, "Yeah."

 

The cop said, "Well next year, tell Santa to put a taillight on that bike." The cop then proceeded to issue little Johnny a $20.00 bicycle safety violation ticket.

 

Little Johnny took the ticket, but before he rode off he said, "By the way, that's a

nice horse you got there. Did Santa bring that to you?"

 

Humoring the kid, t
