One of my favorite creatures....While they may appear cute and cuddly, they can be very violent. They will stalk you and pounce on you when you least expect it, and can take everything you have in one swipe. They have a very unpredictable attitude and will lash out sometimes for almost no logical reason at all. Here, a photographer has caught one in a peaceful moment, hugging a bear...
A doctor walks into the examination room and puts his hand on his patient's shoulder. "I'm afraid I have some bad news. You're dying and don't have much time left." "Oh, no!" says the patient. "How long do I have to live?" "Ten" says the doctor. "Ten?" cried the panicked patient. "Ten what? Days? Weeks? Months?" The doctor calmly replies, "Nine . . "
A Bosnian Muslim pet shop owner sells a parrot to a Croatian Catholic. The Catholic man is very pleased with the beautiful plumage, and figures the bird will eventually pick up some Croatian words.
So the bird sits on his perch in the Croat's foyer, and continually greets his visitors with "Inshallah" and "As-salamu alakum".
For the first few weeks, it's funny - but after a while, these words being continually spoken in his house are wearing on the nerves of the devout Catholic. So he devises a plan to deprive the bird of food until he stops the Muslim sayings. After a few weeks, the bird stops speaking altogether.
The Croat figures the bird has finally learned his lesson, and fills his dish with all the treats he had previously enjoyed.
Upon seeing the food in his bowl, the bird immediately squawks, "alhamd lilah , laqad mara ramadan fi alnahayat!"
A farmer got pulled over by a Texas State Trooper for speeding. The Trooper started to lecture the farmer about his speed, and in general began to throw his weight around to try to make the farmer uncomfortable. Finally, the trooper got around to writing out the ticket. As he was doing that, he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing around his head. The farmer said, "Having some problems with circle flies there, are ya?" The Trooper stopped writing the ticket and said, "Well yeah, if that's what they are. I never heard of circle flies." So the farmer says, "Well, circle flies are common on farms. See, they're called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around the back end of a horse." The Trooper says, "Oh," and goes back to writing the ticket. Then after a minute he stops and says, "Are you trying to call me a horse's @$$?" The farmer says, "Oh no, officer. I have too much respect for law enforcement and police officers to even think about calling you a horse's @$$." The Trooper says, "Well, that's a good thing," and goes back to writing the ticket. After a long pause, the farmer says, "Hard to fool them flies though.
