I couldn't say, Fire Monkey :D but apparently the caution now also applies to "exceptionally naughty adults"! Make of that what you will :lol:

Thought you might like an obscure Scottish joke (I'm Scots, so I can get away with this...)

3 cows in a field....which one is on holiday?

The one with the wee calf (get it? week off...) groan!

also, : English woman goes to a Scots wedding. she asks the nearest Scotsman wearing a kilt ' Is anything worn under the kilt?'

He replies: 'No madam, everything is in good working order!'......

Here's the last one for now....

How do you get a 50 pence piece out of a Scotsman's hand?

With a spanner!

(in the UK a 50 pence piece is an eight sided coin...)

No offence intended! Just fun...

...Ok, here's the last one of the day!

How do you become a famous Scottish poet?

Just stand with your back to the fire till you're Rabbie Burns!


....I thank you! (bows)

Here's an american joke I just heard.

A teacher says to the class 'Now when you write these essays, there are 2 words I don't want you to use - one's 'great' and the other is 'lousy'.

After a long silence, one class member puts up their hand and asks......'yes, but what are the words?'

I hope we are all growing old disgracefully, and spending our kids/nearest relations inheritance.

Joke:- Did you know when a woman is happy, her sweat smells of onions.

That's because where there is a happy woman, there is a man in tears nearby.

Alright, alright. It's sexist, but that is the point of jokes. Instead of complaining how about a joke at mens expense. Also for those of us who are of a nonhetero inclination change man to woman, or woman to man. It still works.

Two cheeky ones (literally and metaphorically).....

Did you hear about the constipated ballroom dancer? He couldn't Pasa Doble!

Did you hear about the constipated mathematician? He had to work it out with a pencil!

Yes, I hear you groan....

When I was in the 3rd grade I told my first joke in front of the whole classroom:

What happened to the ant on the toilet?  It got pissed off.

I can't reproduce the art work that came with this, but perhaps the caption will suffice :lol:

 

Picture of a (slightly less than jolly) Santa in traditional red suit: caption reads:

"Australia is on my naughty list for stealing oil (reference to the Timor Sea oil field boundary dispute) . . . but I can't really give them more coal" !!!

speaking of classic music, i was in dublin these past 2 days and got myself a 2 cd collection of dusty springfield

i like her stuff whenever BBC 6 music plays it so I decided to get it.

 

 

 

i also bought billie marten's album but this is might be the wrong thread for that.

 

i also just did a google search and billie marten was not yet born when dusty springfield died though 3 months apart

I just went to the 40th anniversary tour event of Carlos Santana.  I had seen him in concert over 40 years ago when he was only the "warm up band" for Chicago.  It was great to see him again and to know that the old geezer can still lay down the riffs.  And he always hires the most excellent young musicians to tour with him.  Real talent doesn't get old.

Thanks for sharing :)

 

I'm curious, who was he supporting 40 years ago?

There was a really famous band called "Chicago" back in the day.   Not that the concert was in the city of Chicago.  Sorry that may have been a little vague.

My Dad was a big "Chicago" fan and he took me to the concert because Mom was more of a jazz fan.  I didn't have a driver's license yet so I was maybe 14 or so.  Neither of us knew who this Santana guy was but we listened and said, "Hey, he is pretty good.  He might be famous someday". :)

Great music postings, @Peterson515 and @iff.I keep forgetting the fantastic Doris Day did that song before the cover by the Mamas and Papas.

We were all mad about Carlos Santana  when I was a teen. I need that slogan on a t shirt @Bonnie888, sure it's around on Merchandace.

Ha ha, I also loved Santana's music as a teen, but that was in the late 90s when he made his comeback with the incredibly successful album  "Supernatural". I'm a young(ish) oldie 🙂
