The Indians asked
their Chief in autumn if the winter was going to be cold or
not. Not really knowing an answer, the chief replies that the
winter was going to be cold and that the members of the village
were to collect wood to be prepared.
Being a good leader,
he then went to the next phone booth and called the National
Weather Service and asked, "Is this winter to be cold?"
The man on the phone
responded, "This winter is going to be quite cold indeed."
So the Chief went
back to speed up his people to collect even more wood to be
prepared. A week later he called the National Weather Service
again, "Is it going to be a very cold winter?"
"Yes",
the man replied, "it's going to be a very cold winter."
So the Chief goes
back to his people and orders them to go and find every scrap
of wood they can find. Two weeks later he calls the National
Weather Service again: "Are you absolutely sure that the
winter is going to be very cold?"
"Absolutely,"
the man replies, "the Indians are collecting wood like
crazy!"
Q: Why does it take longer to build a blonde snowman than a regular
one?
A: You have to hollow
out the head.
A bird was flying
south for Winter, but he had left it too late and was frozen
solid in a storm.
He dropped down into a pasture of cows. The biggest, fattest
cow was doing a crap there, and the bird landed in it. At first
he was disgusted, until he realised the poo was thawing him
out!
He started crying out for joy as the ice melted. A cat that
was nearby heard the cries, walked over, saw the bird and ate
it
There are three morals
to this story:
1. Not everyone who
gets you into shit is your enemy
2. Not everyone who
gets you out of shit is your friend
3. If you are in
shit, keep your mouth shut.
Peekaboo Street (the
US Olympian) apparently came into a lot of money
because of her Olympic performance this winter. Rather than
spend it
on herself, she showed a lot of character by donating it to
a local
hospital. The primary facility the hospital needed was a retrofit
of
the Intensive Care Unit, so in her honor, the hospital board
is going
to name the new unit, "Peekaboo, I.C.U."
