PLAYING IT SAFE

A man in his 40's bought a new BMW and was out driving on the interstate at top speed when he suddenly saw flashing red and blue lights behind him.

"There's no way they can catch a BMW," he thought to himself and sped up even more. Then the reality of the situation hit him, "What the heck am I doing?" he thought and pulled over.

The cop came up to him, took his license without a word, and examined it and the car. "It's been a long day, it is the end of my shift, and it's Friday the 13th. I don't feel like more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for your driving that I haven't heard before, you can go."

The guy thinks for a second and says, "Last week my wife ran off with a cop. I was afraid you were trying to give her back."

"Have a nice weekend," said the officer.

Candles

Mrs. O'Donovan was walking down the main street of Dublin, and coming in the opposite direction was Father O'Rafferty.

"Hello," said the Father, "and how is Mrs. O'Donovan? Didn't I marry you two years ago?"

She replied, "You did that, Father."

"And are there any little ones yet?" "No, not yet, Father," said she.

"Well now, I'm going to Rome next week, and I'll be glad to light a candle for you."

"Thank -you, Father." And away she went.

Some years later they met again.

"Well now, Mrs. O'Donovan," said the Father, "how are you?"

"Oh, very well ," she said.

"And tell me ," he said, "Have you any little ones yet?"

"Oh yes, Father. I've had three sets of twins and four singles, ten in all."

"Now isn't that wonderful," he said, " And how is your lovely husband?"

"Oh," she said, " He's gone to Rome to blow out your damn candle."

Life’s Like That

An 85 year old man is at the doc's having his annual checkup. The doctor asks him how he's feeling. "Never better!" he replies. "I've got an eighteen year old bride who's pregnant with my child! What do you think about that?"

The doctor considers this for a moment, then says, "Well, let me tell you a story...

I know a guy who's an avid hunter. He never misses a season. But one day he's in a bit of a hurry and he accidentally grabs his umbrella instead of his gun.

So he's walking in the woods near a creek and suddenly spots a beaver in some brush in front of him! He raises up his umbrella, points it at the beaver and squeezes the handle. *BAM* The beaver drops dead in front of him."

"That's impossible !" said the old man in disbelief, "Someone else must have shot that beaver."

"Exactly."
