Articles on this site express varying points of view, to encourage mature thinking on serious issues. The assumption is that you will want to study a controversial topic from various angles before you arrive at a conclusion, rather than simply believe what someone told you when you were impressionable!

Funny Grandma

British Pilot

A British Airways pilot was taxi-ing to take off at Frankfurt Airport. “NO!” screams the ground controller, “YOU ARE GOING THE WRONG WAY!! HAVE YOU NEVER BEEN TO FRANKFURT BEFORE??” “Yes,” replies the pilot, “back in 1944, but it was dark and we didn’t land.”

Faith

Sister Mary Ann, who worked for a home health agency, was out making her rounds visiting homebound patients when she ran out of petrol. As luck would have it, a Shell Petrol station was just a block away. She walked to the station to borrow a can and buy some petrol. The attendant told her […]

Lufthansa pilot

The Lufthansa pilot strike reminded me of an old joke the former BEA pilots circulated. A Lufthansa pilot, approaching Berlin, asked for landing clearance in German. The tower responded, “Speak English, please. You are cleared to land after BEA.” The pilot snarled, “I am a German pilot flying for a German airline, landing at a […]

Passport Application

Darwin awards

From a friend in another corner of the ‘Net, responding to ‘I AM THEREFORE I THINK’… (Is this putting Descartes before de horse?) Avagooddayeveryoneunlessyou’vemadeotherarrangements…: **** And on similar lines… The slogan of the Darwin Awards (http://www.darwinawards.com ) definitely ought to be “I think not, therefore I am not”! 🙂 Haven’t made other arrangements, so shall […]

Chicken Story

The Chicken Story…. Farmer John lived on a quiet rural highway. But, as time went by, the traffic slowly built up at an alarming rate. The traffic was so heavy and so fast that his chickens were being run over at a rate of three to six a day. So one day Farmer John called […]

Senior Health Care Solution

(Not funny… but I’ve still put it into the Humor/Humour section) So you’re a senior citizen and the government says no health care or pension for you, what do you do? Our plan gives anyone 65 years or older a gun and 4 bullets. You are allowed to shoot 2 MP’s and 2 Senior Government […]

Priceless Man

Larry wakes up at home with a huge hangover. He forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table. He sits up and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. Larry looks around the […]
