Got any really funny jokes or photos to cheer a depressed person?
Offering temporary smiles is all I can do for her. Jokes or photos! Jokes or photos! Jokes or photos!

Here's an idea of the type of photo:

Thank you, my friends

4. That is fantastic.
It made me laugh, but my sister isn't political and I doubt she's even heard of Jeff Gannon.

but thanks!

25. I feel sorry for people who don't smoke or do drugs
Because one day they'll be lying in a hospital bed, dying, and they won't know why.

3. A fairly recent one....
A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home. He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed: "Dear Lord: I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my wife merely stays at home.

I want her to know what I go through, so please
allow her body to switch with mine for a day. Amen.

God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish. The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman.
He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids,
Set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their lunches,

Drove them to school, came home and picked up
the dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners
And stopped at the bank to make a deposit, went grocery shopping,
Then drove home to put away the groceries,
Paid the bills and balanced the checkbook.

He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.

Then it was already 1 P.M. and he hurried to make the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor.

Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them on the way home.

Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do their homework,
Then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the ironing.

At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad, breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper.

After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed. At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was
expected to make love, which he managed to get through without complaint.

The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said, Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife's being able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade back."

The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied, "My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were. You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last night."

37. Names Isis, and she is an indoor cat.
Never goes outside, even if we leave all the doors and windows open. That's a good thing here. We live on the edge of a canyon, and the coyotes have a field day with outdoor cats here.

43. So one day, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton are playing golf...
...and after the round, they are both in the locker room, and Dubya notices how well "gifted" Bubba is. He asks "Damn Willy, if I had me one like that, I'd keep Laura happy every night. What's your secret?"

"Aw shucks" replies Bill, it's actually pretty simple, every night, before I have sex, I just take it out and give it a good slap on the side three time, just like this":

*slap* *slap* *slap*

"You keep on with that, and you'll end end up like a five legged Clydesdale boy..."

That evening, Dubya is in the bedroom with Laura, and is feeling a bit frisky. He excuses himself to go to the bathroom. He then remembers Bubbas trick and thinks to himself "oh what the hell." He whips it out and:

*slap* *slap* *slap*

Suddenly he hears Laura's voice coming from the bedroom:

"Bill? is that you?"

50. I used to work as a delivery driver / assistant for a meat company
One day we had to delivery hot dogs to a local county carnival / fair.

I was assisting a driver. The driver said to me, "Careful. These carnies will rob us blind if we don't keep our eyes peeled."

The driver unlocked the back of the truck, and climbed in. I stood lookout. While I was reading the order off to the driver, I felt something pound me on the head. At first I thought that a carnie had snuck up on me and sucker punched me on the back of my head. The force was so powerful that it almost knocked me down; I had to support myself on the back of the truck. I spun around, ready to fight.

It turned out that a bird had shit on me! The bird was so high in the air that I couldn't even see it. I yelled out, "Someone hit me!" The driver dropped what he was doing and ran to the back of the truck. I turned around to see if there was anyone running away from the truck. When I turned around the driver saw the bird-shit running down the back of my head and down my shirt.

The driver laughed so hard that he pissed his pants! He told me that "where he was from" having a bird shit on you was good luck. This was when he pee'd.

This is not much of a joke, but it should do the trick...

52. Prinderella and the Chince
Edited on Fri Apr-08-05 01:40 PM by Seabiscuit
Twonce upon a wime
There was a gritty little pearl named Prinderella
Who lived all alone
With her two sugly isters
And her sticked wepmother
Who made her fleep the soors,
Gake out the tarbage,
And cheep the swimneys.

One dine fay the parming chince
Decided to throw a drancy fess ball.
All the lords and ladies were invited
Even Prinderella's two sugly isters
And her sticked wepmother.
But poor Prinderella wasn't invited.

But bo and lehold
On the night of the drancy fess ball
Prinderalla's gary fodmother appeared
In a smowd of cloke
And turned a chumpkin into a parriot
With three hite whorses
Who drove Prinderella to the drancy fess ball
Where she met the parming chince,
And they danced all night.

Until the toke of strelve
When Prinderella tried to run home
But stipped on the slairs
And slopped her dripper.

The parming chince sound the flipper
And took it to the first sugly ister
And she slide on the tripper
But it fidn't dit.
The second sugly ister slide on the tripper
And it fidn't dit either.
Even the sticked wepmother slide on the tripper
And it fidn't dit at all.

But when Prinderella slide on the tripper
It fid dit
And they all hived wappily ever lafter.

Joke:
I got a new voice-activated car radio the other day. It's great, I say "Rock," and it plays rock music. I say "Rap" and it plays rap music. Then some kids jumped in front of front of my car. I yelled "Fucking kids!" and it played Michael Jackson.
