Instructions on how to clean your toilet


1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl.

2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.

3. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. You may need to stand on the lid.


4. The cat will self agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this.

5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power-wash" and rinse".

6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.

7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.

8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.

9. Both the commode and the cat will be sparkling clean.

Sincerely,

The Dog

THE SWEET NEW BRIDE

A newlywed couple had only been married for two weeks. The husband, although very much in love, couldn't wait to go out on the town and party with his old buddies.

So, he said to his new wife, "Honey, I'll be right back." Where are you going, coochy cooh?" asked the wife.

"I'm going to the bar, pretty face. I'm going to have a beer."

The wife said, "You want a beer, my love?" She opened the door to the refrigerator and showed him 25 different kinds of beer, brands from 12 different countries: Germany, Holland, Japan, India, etc.

The husband didn't know what to do, and the only thing that he could think of saying was, "Yes, lollypop.  But at the bar.....you know....they have frozen glasses.."

He didn't get to finish the sentence, because the wife interrupted him by saying, "You want a frozen glass, puppy face?"

She took a huge beer mug out of the freezer, so frozen that she was getting chills just holding it.

The husband, looking a bit pale, said, "Yes, tootsie roll, but at the bar they have those neat little snacks &hors d'ouevres that are really delicious won't be long, I'll be right back. I promise.

OK? "You want hors d'oeuvres, poochi pooh?" She opened the oven and took out 5 dishes of different hors d'oeuvres: chicken wings, pigs in the blankets, mushroom caps, pork strips, etc.

"But my sweet honey. ! at the bar.you know.there's swearing, dirty words and all that.."

"You want dirty words, cutie pie.? "Listen up, d*ckhead! Drink your f*cking beer in your g*ddamn frozen mug and eat your f*cking snacks, because you are married now, and you aren't going anywhere!
Got it, a$$hole?"

And they lived happily ever after. Isn't that a sweet story?

A blonde and a brunette both board an elevator and push the buttons for their respective floors. On the next floor, the door opens and a businessman wearing a black suit boards the elevator. It's evident that the man has dandruff problems,
because it can be seen on the shoulder of his suit.  
Two floors later the man gets off, and the two women remain.
When the door closes the brunette says, Someone should give that guy some Head & Shoulders.

The blonde then responds, How do you give shoulders?

The Pregnancy

A twenty-one-year-old girl tells her Mom that she has missed her period for two months. Very worried, the mother goes to the drugstore and buys a pregnancy kit. The test result shows that the girl is pregnant.

Shouting, cursing, crying, the mother says, "Who was the pig that did this to you? I want to know!

The girl picks up the phone and makes a call. Half an hour later a Ferrari stops in front of their house; a mature and distinguished man with gray hair, impeccably dressed in a very expensive suit, steps out of the car and enters the house.

He sits in the living room with the father, the mother and the girl, and tells them, "Good morning, your daughter has informed me of the problem. I can't marry her because of my personal family situation, but I'll take charge.

If a girl is born, I will bequeath her two retail stores, a townhouse, a beach villa and a $1,000,000 bank account. 

If a boy is born, my legacy will be a couple of factories and a $2,000,000 bank account.

If it is twins, a factory and $1,000,000 each. However, if there is a miscarriage, what do you suggest I do?"

At this point, the father, who had remained silent, places a hand firmly on the man's shoulder and tells him, "Then you try again."

Yet more disaster advice.....in response to yesterdays advice

Move to Iowa just in time for tornado and flood season.
 
The bleach is for disinfecting that drinking water you put in your bathtub.
 
The big knife is for cutting yourself and others out of that tangled mess of debris that used to be your house.  A big survival knife is best, the one with the saw on the back edge.
 
Th flashlight is a device for storing dead batteries.
 
The best evacuation plan is never to move there in the first place.  I knew a woman years ago who lived in Florida during the winter and on Cape Code during the summer.  Oh, to be independantly wealthy.
 
This is why I live in New England, the winters are relativly mild and the summers are relativly cool.  The weather changes constanly but big bad weather is pretty rare.  Once a decade we get a big pile of snow or the coast is hit by the left overs of a huricane but I've never seen a catagory 5 storm this far north.  Tornadoes are rare and though this is the second most earthquake prone section of the country, the earthquakes are quite mild.  I feel them a couple times a year.  Everything just quivers for a few seconds.

We're about to enter the peak of the hurricane season.  Any day now, 
you're going to turn on the TV and see a weather  person pointing to some radar 
blob out in the Atlantic Ocean and making two  basic meteorological points:

(1) There is no need to  panic.


(2) We could all be killed.


Yes, hurricane  season is an exciting time to be in Alabama and Florida.  If you're 
new to the area,  you're probably wondering what you need to do to prepare for 
the possibility that we'll get hit by "the big one."
Based on our experiences, we recommend that you  follow this simple
three-step hurricane preparedness plan:

STEP 1: Buy  enough food and bottled water to last your family for at least three days.

STEP 2: Put these supplies into your car.

STEP 3: Drive to Iowa  and remain there until Halloween.  Unfortunately, statistics show that  most people will not follow this sensible plan.  Most people will foolishly  stay where they are.  We'll start with one of the most important  hurricane preparedness items:

HOMEOWNERS' INSURANCE:
If you own a  home, you must have hurricane insurance. Fortunately, this insurance is cheap  and easy to get, as long as your home meets two basic  requirements:

(1) It is reasonably well-built, and
(2) It is located in Iowa.

Unfortunately, if your  home is located on a island, or any other area that might actually be hit by a  hurricane, most insurance companies would  prefer not to sell you hurricane  insurance, because then they might be required to pay YOU money, and that is  certainly not why they got into the insurance business in the first place. So you'll have to scrounge around for an insurance company, which will  charge you an annual premium roughly equal to the replacement value of your  house.  At any moment, this company can drop you like used dental floss.  Since Hurricane Frederick, I have had an estimated 27 different home-insurance companies.  

This week, I'm covered by the Bob and Big  Stan Insurance Company, under a policy which states that, in addition to my premium, Bob and Big Stan are entitled, on demand, to my kidneys.

 

SHUTTERS:
Your house should have hurricane shutters on all the  windows, all the  doors, and -- if it's a major hurricane -- all the toilets.  There are several  types of shutters, with advantages and disadvantages:
 
Plywood shutters: The advantage is that, because you make them yourself, they're cheap.  The disadvantage is that, because you make them  yourself, they will fall off.

Sheet-metal shutters: The advantage is  that these work well, once you get them all up.  The disadvantage is that  once you get them all up, your  hands will be useless bleeding stumps, and it  will be December.

Roll-down shutters: The advantages are that they're  very easy to use, and will definitely protect your house.  The disadvantage  is that you will have to sell your house to pay for them.

Hurricane-proof windows: These are the newest wrinkle in hurricane protection: They look like ordinary windows, but they can withstand hurricane  winds!  You can be sure of this, because the salesman says so.  He  lives in Iowa.


Hurricane Proofing your property: As the hurricane  approaches, check your yard for movable objects like barbecue grills,  planters, patio furniture, visiting relatives, etc...  You should, as a  precaution, throw these items into your swimming pool (if you don't have a  swimming pool, you should have one built immediately).  Otherwise, the  hurricane winds will turn these objects into deadly missiles.

EVACUATION  ROUTE:
If you live in a low-lying area, you should have an evacuation route planned out.  (To determine whether you live in a low-lying area, look  at your driver's license; if it says "Alabama" or "Florida" you live in a low-lying area).  The purpose of having an evacuation route is to avoid being trapped in your home when a major storm hits.

Instead, you will be trapped in a  gigantic traffic jam several miles from your home, along with two hundred  thousand other evacuees. So, as a bonus, you will not be lonely.

HURRICANE SUPPLIES:
If you don't evacuate, you will need a mess of  supplies.  Do not buy them now!  Tradition requires that you  wait until the last possible  minute, then go to the supermarket and get into  vicious fights with strangers over who gets the last can of SPAM.  In  addition to food and water, you will  need the following supplies:

1. 23  flashlights.  At least $167 worth of batteries that turn out, when  the power goes off, to be the wrong size for the flashlights. 

2. Bleach.  (No, I don't know what the bleach is for.  NOBODY knows what  the bleach is for, but it's traditional, so get some!)

3. 55 gallon drum of  underarm deodorant.

4. A big knife that you can strap to  your leg.  (This will be useless in a hurricane, but it looks cool.)

5. A large quantity of raw chicken, to placate the alligators. (Ask anybody who went through Camille; after the hurricane, there WILL be irate alligators.)

6. $35,000 in cash or diamonds so that, after the hurricane  passes, you can buy a generator from a man with no discernible teeth.

Of  course these are just basic precautions.  As the hurricane draws near, it is vitally important that you keep abreast of the situation by turning on your television and watching TV reporters in rain slickers stand right next to  the Gulf and tell you over and over how vitally important it is for everybody  to stay away from the Gulf.

Good luck, and remember: It's great living  in Paradise.  :-)

Hurricane Categories
 
Category 1: "Wussy." Street signs blow over, bushes and shrubs are damaged, housecats meow slightly more loudly. Plan for these storms by duct taping your shrubs, kicking the cat, and shaking your fist triumphantly at Mother Nature for throwing such a weak-ass storm at you.


Category 2: "Mildly Alarming." Houses moan, some of the sicker looking trees may fall over, shingles blow off, small children complain. Planning: duct tape all the sick trees you may have on your property, as well as duct taping Xs on your windows. This lets the wind know not to blow the glass in. Purchase bottled water, before everyone else snaps it up.


Category 3: "Deeply Frightening." Houses collapse, mobile homes cease to exist in any normal functioning sense of the word, dogs fart explosively, healthy trees surrender. Planning: duct tape everything on your property, including the dog. Buy plywood and nail it over the windows-after first duct taping Xs over the glass. Purchase bottled water and bleach. This is so if it looks like you're going to die, you can add the bleach to the water and drink it.


Category 4: "Holy Shit." Buildings fall, cars fly through the air, walls bleed, large sea mammals are carried several miles inland, entire regions disappear completely. Planning: Cover your entire house with duct tape Xs to try and fool the hurricane into thinking the whole place is a gigantic window. Nail as much wood as you can find to the outside of the duct tape. Lock yourself and your family and your farting dog in the basement with the bottled water and bleach, and maybe some canned goods, a portable generator, and a gun to ward off looters in the apocalyptic aftermath that is sure to follow.


Category 5: "The End Of The World." All trace of humanity is picked up several yards into the air and converted into bite-sized pieces, the Biblical leviathan surfaces from the depths, hell rises up and swallows mankind whole. Planning: screw the duct tape. Get into the basement and make peace with your God,  Whomever He, She or It may be.

SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY

 

A couple lived near the ocean and used to walk the beach a lot. One summer

they noticed a girl who was at the beach pretty much every day.

 

She wasn't unusual, nor was the travel bag she carried, except for one

thing; she would approach people who were sitting on the beach, glance

around and then speak to them.

 

Generally the people would respond negatively and she would wander off, but

occasionally someone would nod and there would be a quick exchange of money

for something she carried in her bag.

 

The couple assumed she was selling drugs, and debated calling the cops, but

since they didn't know for sure they just continued to watch her.

 

After a couple of weeks the wife said, "Honey, have you ever noticed that

she only approaches people with boom boxes and other electronic devices?"

 

He hadn't, and said so.

 

Then she said, "Tomorrow I want you to get a towel and our big radio and go

lie out on the beach.   Then we can find out what she's really doing."

 

Well, the plan went off without a hitch and the wife was almost hopping up

and down with anticipation when she saw the girl talk to her husband and

then leave. The man walked up the beach and met his wife at the road.

 

Well, is she selling drugs?" she asked excitedly in a hushed voice.

 

"No, she's not," he said, enjoying this probably more than he should have.

 

"Well, w hat is it, then? What does she do?" his wife fairly shrieked.

 

The man grinned and said, "She sells batteries."

 

"Batteries?!" cried the wife with astonishment.

 

"Yes,....." he replied calmly.  I’ll tell you what she does.”

Things I've Learned Since my last Hurricane

* Coffee and frozen pizzas can be made on a BBQ grill.

* No matter how many times you flick the switch, lights don't work without electricity.

* Kids can survive 4 days or longer without a video game controller in their hand.

* Cats are even more irritating without power.

* He who has the biggest generator wins.

* Women can actually survive without doing their hair--you just wish they weren't around you.

* A new method of non-lethal torture-showers without hot water.

* There are a lot more stars in the sky than most people thought.

* TV is an addiction and the withdrawal symptoms are painful. One day at a time, brother.

* A 7 lb bag of ice will chill 6 pack of soda to a drinkable temperature in 11 minutes, and still keep a 14-pound turkey frozen for 8 more hours.

* There are a lot of trees around here.

* Flood plan drawings on some mortgage documents were seriously wrong.

* Contrary to most Florida natives' beliefs, the speed limit on a road without a traffic light does not increase.

* Aluminum siding, while aesthetically pleasing, is definitely not required.

* Just because you're 35 doesn't mean you can stay out as late as you want. At least that's what the cops told me during a curfew stop.

* Crickets can increase their volume to overcome the sound of 14 generators.

* People will get into a line that has already formed without having any idea what the line is for.

* When required, a Lincoln Continental will float--doesn't steer well, but floats just the same.

* Some things do keep the mailman from his appointed rounds.

* Cell phones work when land lines are down, but only as long as the battery remains charged.

* 27 of your neighbors are fed from a different transformer than you, and they are quick to point that out!

* Laundry hampers were not made to contain such a volume.

* If my store sold only ice, chainsaws, gas, and generators...I'd be rich.

* The price of a bag of ice rises 200% after a hurricane.

* Your water front property can quickly become someone else's fishing hole.

* Tree service companies are under appreciated.

* I learned what happens when you make fun of another state's blackout.

* MATH 101: 30 days in month, minus 6 days without power equals 30% higher electric bill ?

* Drywall is a compound word, take away the "dry" part and it's worthless.

* I can walk a lot farther than I thought.

In a school science class four worms were placed into  four separate jars.
The first worm was put into a jar of  alcohol.
The second worm was put into a jar of cigarette smoke.
The  third worm was put into a jar of sperm.
The fourth worm was put into a  jar of soil.
After one day, these were the results:
The first worm  in alcohol - dead.
Second worm in cigarette smoke - dead.
Third worm  in sperm - dead.
Fourth worm in soil - alive.
So the Science teacher  asked the class - "What can you learn from this
experiment."
Little  Johnny quickly raised his hand and said "As long as you drink,  smoke
and have sex, you won't have worms."

Every man's dream come true........................

The other day I came home from work and was greeted by my wife
dressed in a very sexy nightie, and holding a couple of short velvet ropes.
Tie me up," she purred, "and you can do anything you want."

So, I tied her up and went  hunting.

Upon hearing that her elderly grandfather had just passed away, Katie went straight to her grandparent's house to visit her 95 year old grandmother and comfort her.
When she asked how her grandfather had died, her grandmother replied, 'He
had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning."
Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people nearly 100 years old having sex would surely be asking for trouble. "Oh no, my dear," replied granny. "Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best time to do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even. Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding and out on the Dong." She paused to wipe away a tear, and continued, "he'd still be alive if the ice cream truck hadn't come along.

A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is
good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells.
Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That's why you always feel
smarter after a few beers."

Jokes for WOMEN
 
One day my housework-challenged husband decided to wash his  sweatshirt.
Seconds after he stepped into the laundry room, he shouted to me,  "What
setting do I use on the washing machine?" It depends," I replied.  "What
does it say on your shirt?" He yelled back, "University of  Oklahoma."
And they say blondes are dumb..
 
A couple is lying in bed. The man says, "I am going to make you the
happiest woman in the world" The woman says, "I'll miss you..."
 
It's just too hot to wear clothes today," Jack says as he stepped  out
of the shower, "honey, what do you think the neighbors would think if  I
mowed the lawn like this?" "Probably that I married you for your
money," she replied.
 
He said - Since I first laid eyes on you, I have wanted to make love  to
you really badly. She said - Well, you succeeded.
 
He said - Shall we try swapping positions tonight?
She said - That's a good idea .. you stand by the ironing board while  I
sit on the sofa and fart.
 
He said - What have you been doing with all the grocery money I  gave
you? She said - Turn sideways and look in the mirror
 
Q: What do you call an intelligent, good looking, sensitive man
A: A rumor
 
A man and his wife, now in their 60's, were celebrating their 40th
wedding anniversary. On their special day a good fairy came to them  and
said that because they had been such a devoted couple she would  grant
each of them a very special wish. The wife wished for a trip around  the
world with her husband. Whoosh! Immediately she had airline/cruise
tickets in her hands. The man wished for a female companion 30  years
younger... Whoosh...immediately he turned ninety!!! Gotta love that
fairy!
 
AND THE BEST ONE YET...
 
A WOMAN'S PERFECT BREAKFAST:
* She's sitting at the table with her gourmet coffee.
* Her son is on the cover of the Wheaties box.
* Her daughter is on the cover of Business Week.
* Her boyfriend is on the cover of Playgirl.
* And her husband is on the back of the milk carton
 
A PRAYER....
Dear Lord,
I pray for Wisdom to understand my man; Love to forgive him; And
Patience for his moods. Because, Lord, if I pray for Strength, I'll
beat him to death. AMEN

The difference between engineers and technicians
 
An engineer is given a system which does not work.  The engineer inspects the system and discovers a component installed upside down.
The engineer thinks,  "this component has been installed upside down.  I don't know why it is upside down , but the person who installed it obviously had a good reason for installing it this way.  I will not tamper with it."
 
A technician is given a system which does not work.  The technician inspects the system and discovers a component installed upside down.
The technician thinks, "this component is upside down.  It should be installed right way up".  The technician takes out a screwdriver and reinstalls the component.
 
The engineer is an intelligent person. All the engineer's  friends are intelligent people.  It would never occur to the engineer that the reason the component was installed upside down is that the person who installed it is a freakin' idiot.

Once upon a time, a perfect man and a perfect woman met. After a perfect courtship, they had a perfect wedding. Their life together was, of course, perfect. One snowy, stormy Christmas Eve, this perfect couple was driving their perfect car (a Grand Caravan) along a winding road, when they noticed someone at the side of the road in distress. Being the perfect couple, they stopped to help. There stood Santa Claus with a huge bundle of toys. Not wanting to disappoint any children on the eve of Christmas, the perfect couple loaded Santa and his toys into their vehicle. Soon they were driving along delivering toys. Unfortunately, the driving conditions deteriorated and the perfect couple and Santa Claus had an accident. Only one of them survived the accident. The mind numbing  question is: Who was the survivor?

Scroll down for the answer...

 

 

 

 

 

The perfect woman survived. She's the only one who really existed in the first place. Everyone knows there is no Santa Claus and there is no such thing as a perfect man. Women stop reading here. That is the end of the joke.

Men keep'a scrollin'...

 

 

 

 

 

So, if there is no perfect man and no Santa Claus, the perfect woman must have been driving. And that explains why there was a car accident. By the way, if you're a woman and you're reading this, this illustrates another point: Women never listen, either.

Monday Sept 6  2004

A "very well to do" man from Lake Charles, La. decided to throw a huge party for all of his neighbors.

Amongst the crowd was only one true cajun, named Boudreaux.

After a few drinks, the host said to the crowd "There is a 12' alligator in my pool, and I'll give 1 million dollars to whoever jumps in".

Just as he finished his sentence, he heard a splash. There was Boudreaux, fighting tooth and nail with the gator. After about 10 minutes, the gator floated up, dead, and Boudreaux got out of the pool.

"I guess I owe you 1 million bucks", he said. "No thanks", said Boudreaux.

The host insisted. "I have to give you something. How 'bout a corvette, a Rolex, whatever you want"

Boudreaux replied "Give me the name of the S.O.B. who pushed me into the pool!"s  ----------------------------
