    What was that stuff?

    The driver of a huge tractor trailer lost control of his rig, he plowed into an empty tollbooth and smashed it to pieces.

    He climbed down from his truck and looked at the wreckage, not quite sure what to do. Within a matter of minutes, another truck pulled up and unloaded a crew of workers.

    The men picked up each broken piece of the former tollbooth and spread some kind of creamy substance on it. Then they began fitting the pieces together. In less than a half hour, they had the entire tollbooth reconstructed and good as new.

    "Astonishing!" the truck driver said to the crew chief. "What was that white stuff you used to get all of the pieces together?"

    The crew chief said, "Oh, that was tollgate booth paste."

            You are a sick man, Bob... And when you consider the source of that observation, the gravity of your sickness becomes that much clearer...

                  Sure glad I didn't have a drink in my mouth or I would have destroyed my brand new netbook on the first day.

                      A guy is walking home from a bar late one foggy night. He hears thumping behind him - thump thump thump! He starts walking a little faster, but the thumping gets louder, thump thump! He starts walking even faster and looks behind him. The thumping is even louder now, thump thump! He sees a casket shape in the fog behind him. He is a few blocks from home so he starts running. Th thumping gets even louder and quicker. Thump thump thump! By the time he gets to his house, he can see the casket up the block. He fumbles with his keys, gets in the house and closes the door. He sprints up the stairs and just as he gets to the top, hears a crash! as his door is knocked down. The first room he sees is his bathroom. He runs in and locks the door. He can hear the thump thump thump! up the stairs. He fumbles through the medicine cabinet, finds a bottle, turns around and waits. The casket bashes through the bathroom door. The man empties the bottle onto the casket. It stops and falls over. What was in the bottle? Cough syrup - it stops the coughin'.
