    A Scotsman and his wife walked past a swanky new restaurant.



    "Did you smell that food?" she asked. "It's smells absolutely incredible!"



    Being a 'kind-hearted Scotsman', he thought, "What the hell...., I'll treat her!"



    So, they walked past it again!

    SLOWLY!!!!

    A young man shopping in a supermarket noticed a little old lady following him around.
    If he stopped, she stopped. Furthermore she kept staring at him. She finally overtook him at the checkout, and she turned to him and said,
    "I hope I haven't made you feel ill at ease; it's just that you look so much like my late son."
    He answered, "That's okay."
    "I know it's silly, but if you'd call out 'Goodbye, Mum' as I leave the store, it would make me feel so happy."
    She then went through the checkout, and as she was on her way out of the store, the man called out, "Goodbye, Mum."
    The little old lady waved and smiled back at him.
    Pleased that he had brought a little sunshine into someone's day, he went to pay for his groceries.
    "That comes to $61.85," said the clerk.
    "Can't possibly be that much? I only bought 5 items."

    The clerk replied, "Yeah, but your Mother said you'd be paying for her things, too.
    Death smiles at everyone. Grumpy old men smile back.

    I found a wallet yesterday, and was tossing up whether I should hand it in. Then I thought "Well, if I lost MY wallet with three hundred and fifty dollars in it, how would I feel?"

    And I realised that it was a no brainer and that I would want to be taught a lesson.

    Brexit Day +5

    There's grounded planes, chaos in the streets, unpaid workers, crippling strikes, a faltering economy, a buffoon in charge, petrol bombs, riot police, snipers on rooftops.

    But enough about France...

    Understanding Engineers 1


    Two engineering students were biking across a university campus when one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?"


    The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking along yesterday, minding my own business, when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike, threw it to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want."

    The first engineer nodded approvingly and said, "Good choice: The clothes probably wouldn't have fit you anyway."




    Understanding Engineers 2




    To the optimist, the glass is half-full. To the pessimist, the glass is half-empty.

    To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.




    Understanding Engineers 3




    A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers.

    The engineer fumed, "What's with those guys? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!"

    The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!"

    The priest said, "Here comes the greens-keeper. Let's have a word with him." He said, "Hello George, What's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?"


    The greens-keeper replied, "Oh, yes. That's a group of blind firemen. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime!"

    The group fell silent for a moment.




    The priest said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight."

    The doctor said, "Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if here's anything she can do for them."

    The engineer said, "Why can't they play at night?"




    Understanding Engineers 4




    What is the difference between mechanical engineers and civil engineers?

    Mechanical engineers build weapons. Civil engineers build targets.




    Understanding Engineers 5




    The graduate with a science degree asks, "Why does it work?"

    The graduate with an engineering degree asks, "How does it work?"

    The graduate with an accounting degree asks, "How much will it cost?"

    The graduate with an arts degree asks, "Do you want fries with that?





    (I am so loving this one).


    Understanding Engineers 6




    Three engineering students were gathered together discussing who must have designed the human body.

    One said, "It was a mechanical engineer. Just look at all the joints."

    Another said, "No, it was an electrical engineer. The nervous system has many thousands of electrical connections."

    The last one said, "No, actually it had to have been a civil engineer. Who else would run a toxic waste pipeline through a recreational area?"




    Understanding Engineers 7




    Normal people believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.




    Understanding Engineers 8




    An engineer was crossing a road one day, when a frog called out to him and said, "If you kiss me, I'll turn into a beautiful princess."


    He bent over, picked up the frog, and put it in his pocket.


    The frog spoke up again and said, "If you kiss me, I'll turn back into a beautiful princess and stay with you for one week."


    The engineer took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and returned it to the pocket.


    The frog then cried out, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I'll stay with you for one week and do anything you want."


    Again, the engineer took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket.


    Finally, the frog asked, "What is the matter? I've told you I'm a beautiful princess and that I'll stay with you for one week and do anything you want. Why won't you kiss me?"


    The engineer said, "Look, I'm an engineer. I don't have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog - now that's cool."







    And Finally




    Two engineers were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking at its top. A woman walked by and asked what they were doing.


    "We're supposed to find the height of this flagpole," said Sven, "but we don't have a ladder."


    The woman took a shifter from her purse, loosened a couple of bolts, and laid the pole down on the ground. Then she took a tape measure from her purse, took a measurement, announced, "6.5 metres," and walked away.


    One engineer shook his head and laughed, "A lot of good that does us. We ask for the height and she gives us the length!"


    Both engineers have since quit their engineering jobs and are currently serving as elected members of Parliament

    LAST RIDE ON MY HARLEY



    While riding my Harley, I swerved to avoid hitting a deer, lost control and landed in a ditch, severely banging my he ad. Dazed and confused I crawled out of the ditch to the edge of the road when a shiny new convertible pulled up with a very beautiful woman who asked, "Are you okay?"

    As I looked up, I noticed she was wearing a low cut blouse with cleavage to die for...
    "I'm okay I think," I replied as I pulled myself up to the side of the car to get a closer look.

    She said, “Get in and I’ll take you home so I can clean and bandage that nasty scrape on your head.”

    "That's nice of you," I answered, "but I don't think my wife will like me doing that!"

    "Oh, come now, I’m a nurse," she insisted. "I need to see if you have any more scrapes and then treat them properly."



    Well, she was really pretty and very persuasive. Being sort of shaken and weak, I agreed, but repeated, "I'm sure my wife won't like this."



    We arrived at her place which was just few miles away and, after a couple of cold beers and the bandaging, I thanked her and said, "I feel a lot better but I know my wife is going to be really upset so I'd better go now."

    "Don't be silly!" she said with a smile. "Stay for a while. She won't know anything. By the way, where is she?"

    "Still in the ditch with the Harley, I guess.”
