   An old country doctor went way out to the boondocks to deliver a baby.
   It was so far out that there was no electricity. When the doctor
   arrived, no one was home except for the laboring mother and her 5 year
   old child.
   
   The doctor instructed the child to hold a lantern high so he could see
   while he helped the woman deliver the baby. The child did so, the
   mother pushed, and after a little while, the doctor lifted the new
   born baby by the feet and spanked him on the bottom to get him to take
   his first breath.
   
   "Hit him again," the child said. "He shouldn't have crawled up there
   in the first place!!"
   

Changing of the English Language



Having chosen English as the preferred language in the EEC, the European
Parliament has commissioned a feasibility study in ways of improving
efficiency in communications between Government departments.

European officials have often pointed out that English spelling is
unnecessarily difficult - for example, cough, plough, rough, through and
thorough. What is clearly needed is a phased programme of changes to
iron out these anomalies. The programme would, of course, be
administered by a committee staff at top level by participating nations.

In the first year, for example, the committee would suggest using 's'
instead of the soft 'c'. Sertainly, sivil servants in all sities would
resieve this news with joy. Then the hard 'c' could be replaced by 'k'
sinse both letters are pronounsed alike. Not only would this klear up
konfusion in the minds of klerikal workers, but typewriters kould be
made with one less letter.

There would be growing enthusiasm when in the sekond year, it kould be
announsed that the troublesome 'ph' would henseforth be written 'f'.
This would make words like 'fotograf' twenty per sent shorter in print.

In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted
to reash the stage where more komplikated shanges are possible.
Governments would enkourage the removal of double letters which have
always been a deterent to akurate speling.

We would al agre that the horible mes of silent 'e's in the languag is
disgrasful. Therefor we kould drop thes and kontinu to read and writ as
though nothing had hapend. By this tim it would be four years sins the
skem began and peopl would be reseptive to steps sutsh as replasing 'th'
by 'z'. Perhaps zen ze funktion of 'w' kould be taken on by 'v', vitsh

One day, when Billy came home from school, his mom 
asked him how his day went. He said, "We're learning 
about sexual education." She smiled, and said, "At 
least he's learning something usefull." Billy went up 
to his room. A little later, Billy's mom went up to his 
room to call him down to dinner. She opens his door and 
sees him jerking off. She says, "Billy, when you're 
done with your homework, supper's on the table."

A priest and a lawyer are walking down the street and see
a small boy eating an ice cream. 

The priest says, "How'd you like to fuck that?" 

To which the lawyer replied, "Out of what?" 

Why did the blonde scale the chain-link fence? To see what was on the
   other side.
