LAUGH OF THE DAY: Rushing Out of the Bar...

A guy rushes into a bar, orders four expensive 30-year-old single malts and has the bartender line them up in front of him. Then without pausing, he quickly downs each one.
"Whew," the bartender remarked, "you seem to be in a hurry."
"You would be too if you had what I have."
"What do you have?" the bartender sympathetically asked.
"Fifty cents."

LAUGH OF THE DAY: In Honor of Tax Season...

An anxious taxpayer was talking with the IRS auditor who had come to review his records.
At one point the auditor exclaimed, "We feel it is a great privilege to be allowed to live and work in the USA. As a citizen you have an obligation to pay taxes, and we expect you to eagerly pay them with a smile."

Combined with the news of what's going on in Libya, the Middle East, and with the price of oil, you'd think the world is ending.
But, if you're a resident of the Washington, D.C. area, you may want to read the fine print of that Case-Shiller housing report.

LAUGH OF THE DAY: A Night Out...

A tornado hit a farm house just before dawn.
It lifted the roof off, picked up the beds on which a farmer and his wife slept, and set them down gently in the next county.
The wife began to cry.
"Don't be scared, Susan," her husband said. "We are not hurt."
Susan continued to cry. "I'm not scared," she said between sobs. "I'm happy because this is the first time in 15 years that we've been out together.

So, his mother ran out in the street yelling for help. A man passing by took the boy by his shoulders and hit him with a few strong hits on the back, and so he coughed the coin out."I don't know how to thank you, doc..." his mother started."I'm not a doctor," the man replied.
"I'm from the IRS."
