John's barn burned down and his wife, Sandy, called the
insurance company.

Sandy spoke to the insurance agent and said, "We had
that barn insured for fifty thousand, and I want my money."

The agent replied, "Whoa there, just a minute. Insurance
doesn't work quite like that. An independent adjuster will
assess the value of what was insured, and then we'll provide
you with a new barn of similar worth."

There was a long pause, and then Sandy replied, "If that's
how it works, cancel the life insurance policy on my husband!"


Joke again

My grandfather worked in a blacksmith shop when he was a
boy, and he used to tell me, when I was a little boy myself,
how he had toughened himself up so he could stand the rigors
of blacksmithing.

One story was how he had developed his arm and shoulder
muscles. He said he would stand outside behind the house
and, with a 5-pound potato sack in each hand, extend his arms
straight out to his sides and hold them there as long as he
could.

After awhile he tried 10-pound potato sacks, then 50-pound
potato sacks and finally he got to where he could lift a
100-pound potato sack in each hand and hold his arms
straight out for more than a full minute!

Next, he started putting potatoes in the sacks.

      was a big, muscular, hairy guy with tattoos all over his body
      and a ring pierced through his nose. Well, I tore the nose ring
      out of his nose, and told him he and his gang had better stop
      bothering the woman or they would have to deal with me!"

      Trivia
      Why is it considered unlucky to light three
      cigarettes with one match?

      The superstition goes back to the Boer War (1899) when Bristish soldiers conserved matches by using only one to light three cigarettes. The illumination gave a sniper time to zero in on one of the soldiers, and the third man was often the perfect target.

      here is the moto for snipers, " reach out and touch someone."

        Joke

        A clergyman was walking down the street when he came upon
        a group of a few boys about 10 years of age, surrounding a
        dog. Concerned that the boys were hurting the animal, he
        went over and asked them what they were doing.

        One of the boys replied, "This dog is an old neighborhood
        stray. We take him home with us sometimes, but only one of
        us can take him home. So we're having a contest: whichever
        one of us tells the biggest lie can take him home today."

        Of course, the Reverend was shocked. "You boys shouldn't be
        having a contest telling lies!" he exclaimed. He then launched
        into a 10-minute sermon against lying, beginning, "Don't you
        boys know it's a sin to lie?" and ending with, "Why, when I
        was your age, I never told a lie."

        There was complete silence for about a minute. As the
        Reverend smiled with satisfaction that he'd gotten through to
        them, the smallest boy gave a deep sigh. "All right," he said,
