Tap on the shoulder




A tourist has just arrived in a new city.
He finds a taxi that can take him to his motel for the night and off they go.
Eager to know a bit more about the city, and realising the best person to ask is either a hairdresser or taxi driver, he figures he should take advantage of his current situation.
He leaned forward to ask the driver a question and tapped him lightly on the shoulder.
The driver screamed, lost control of the cab, nearly hit a bus, drove up over the curb, and stopped just inches from a large plate glass window.
For a few moments everything was silent in the cab.
Then the still shaking driver turns and says, 'I'm sorry, but you scared the daylights out of me.'
The frightened passenger apologized profusely to the driver, But he commented that he didn't realize a mere tap on the shoulder could frighten someone so much.
The driver replied, 'No, no, I'm sorry, it's entirely my fault.
Today is my first day driving a cab.....
I've been driving a hearse for the last 25 years.

I'm not saying

Mrs. Jenkins comes to visit her son Anthony for dinner...who lives with a female roommate Vikki... During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty Antony's roommate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious. Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Anthony and his roommate than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, Anthony volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Vikki and I are just roommates." About a week later, Vikki came to Anthony saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver sugar bowl. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" "Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: (This is cute) Dear Mama, I'm not saying that you 'did' take the sugar bow

Never Argue with a woman

Although not familiar with the lake, a woman decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book. Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?" "Reading a book," she replies, (thinking, "Isn't that obvious?"). "You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her. "I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading." "Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up." If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault says the woman. "But I haven't even touched you," says the game warden. "That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment." "Have a nice day ma'am" and he left. MORAL: Never argue with a woman wh

Costume miss-match

Image
A couple were invited to a swanky family masked fancy dress Halloween party. The wife got a terrible headache and told her husband to go to the party alone. He, being a devoted husband, protested, but she argued and said she was going to take some aspirin and go to bed and there was no need for his good time to be spoiled by not going. So he took his costume and away he went. The wife, after sleeping soundly for about an hour, woke without pain and as it was still early, decided go to the party. As her husband didn't know what her costume was, she thought she would have some fun by watching her husband to see how he acted when she was not with him. So she joined the party and soon spotted her husband in his costume,cavorting around on the dance floor, dancing with every nice "chick" he could and cupping a little feel here and a little kiss there. His wife went up to him and being a rather seductive babe herself, he left his new partner high and dry and devoted his time
