here's a joke to make you smile:

George Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld are
flying on Air Force One. The President looks at the
Vice President, chuckles, and says, "You know, I
could throw a $1,000 bill out the window right now
and make somebody very happy."

The Vice President shrugs and says, "Well, I could
throw 10 $100 bills out the window and make 10
people very happy."

Not to be outdone, the Secretary of Defense says,
"Of course, then, I could throw 100 $10 bills out the
window and make a hundred people very happy."

The pilot rolls his eyes and says to his co-pilot, "Such
arrogant asses back there. Hell, I could throw the
three of them out the window and make 56 million
people really happy."

4. Why the underestimate?
Edited on Sat Apr-15-06 11:11 AM by baby_bear
Let's see...U.S. population is over 398 million...world population is 6.5 billion...
I'd say that pilot could make WAY more than 56 million people ecstatic.

Good joke, though.

;-)

10. tee hee- the funny thing is
my friend who sent me the joke works on that bastion of Republicanism- Wall Street- she's a bank executive. We haven't discussed politics but she told me her mother HATES B*sh (our 3 year-olds are buddies, that's how I met her). She's seen the weather-beaten, dog-eared Kerry-Edwards sign still (barely) clinging to my front door, so she's figured me out! But I'm guessing she hates Bu*h, too. tee hee

9. Here's Another in a Similar Vein . . .
President Bush was jogging one morning. As he was crossing an old wooden bridge, he stumbled over a loose board and fell into the creek below. Before his Secret Service detail could rescue him, three boys fishing nearby pulled him out.

Bush said, "Thank you very much, boys. To show my appreciation, I would like to give each of you a gift. Just name it."

The first boy said, "I'd like a new pair of Air Jordans."

Bush said, "Done. I'll even get Michael Jordan to autograph them for you."

The second boy said, "I'd like to go to Disney World."

Bush said, "All right. I'll take you there on Air Force One."

The third boy said, "I'd like one of those new power wheel chairs with touch controls and a TV and a sound system."

Bush frowned and said, "You don't look like you need a wheel chair."

The boy replied, "I will when my dad finds out I saved you!"

11. Thanks. I emailed it to family & friends with the following message to the
people spying on American citizens:

...and a message to the NSA, FBI, or any other Government agency that might be reading my emails: THIS IS JUST A JOKE! Why don't you spend my tax money on catching Osama and his terrorists?
