Italian Grandma's Advice

A young Italian girl was
going on a date.
Her Nonna said: 'Sita here ana letame tella you about this-a younga boy.
He's agonna try ana kiss you,
you are agonna likea dat, but
don't let him do dat.
He's agonna try ana kiss
your breasts, you are agonna
likeadat too, but don'ta let
him do dat eeda.
But mosta important, he's
agonna try ana lay on topa
you, you are agonna really
likea dat, but don'ta let him
do dat for sure.
Doing thata willa disgraza
our family.
With that bit of advice, the
granddaughter went on her

date.
The next day she told
grandma that her date
went just like she had
predicted:'And Nonna,
I didn't let him disgrace
our family as you said.
When he tried to lay on
top of me, I just rolled
him over, got on top of
him, and disgraced
HIS family!'
Nonna fainted!!

Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a police officer see a car puttering along at 22 kph.

Says he to himself: "This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder!"
So he turns on his lights and pulls the driver over.
Approaching the car, he notices that there are five old ladies, two in the front seat and three in the back....wide eyed and white as ghosts.
The driver, obviously confused, says to him "Officer, I don't understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit!

What seems to be the problem?"
"Ma'am," the officer replies, "you weren't speeding, but you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers."
"Slower than the speed limit? No sir, I was doing the speed limit exactly...Twenty-two kilometres an hour!" ...the old woman says a bit proudly.
The Police officer, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that 22 is the highway number, not the speed limit.
A bit embarrassed, the woman grins and thanks the officer for pointing out her error.
"But before I let you go, Ma'am, I have to ask...Is everyone in this car OK? These women seem awfully shaken, and they haven't made a peep this whole time," the officer asks.
"Oh, they'll be all right in a minute officer. We just got off Highway 189."

Thanks Ralph

had him in my sights....but I just couldn't pull the trigger!

And then I thought, "f**k it - that's how I'd wanna go!”

Stephen Harper, the Austin Powers of the Arctic

Stephen Harper made like Vladimir Putin last week, camping and target shooting in the Arctic. Fortunately, the PM neither took off his shirt nor wrestled a polar bear.

But by playing tough yet holding back, Harper set himself up for ridicule — much like Mike Myers did with the character Austin Powers when parodying James Bond.

Photos showed Harper standing awkwardly in front of a campfire made of logs that must have been flown in specially, because the camp was 800 kilometres north of the tree line. Putin would have killed a seal with his bare hands and ignited its oil by striking a rock against his teeth.

Harper’s rifle was one of the 65-year-old relics used by the Canadian Rangers, relics that Harper once promised and then failed to replace. Putin does his target shooting with a Kalashnikov. Just for fun, he hunts Siberian tigers with a tranquilizer gun.

Harper, bundled up like a toddler at the rink, went for a ride in a motorboat. Putin swims naked in Arctic lakes.

Harper could not even match Putin in dealing with the media. When a Chinese journalist tried to ask an unapproved question, he was scolded for the misdeed. In Russia, inquisitive journalists have accidents. In the old days, when Harper was sorting mail at Imperial Oil in Edmonton, Putin was pulling out fingernails in East Germany.

On Arctic development, too, Harper is a pale shadow of Putin.

Grandpa's Drink.

ONE FOR ALL THE OLD CODGERS!!!!

There was a family gathering, with all generations around
The table. Mischievous teenagers put a Viagra tablet into
Grandpa's drink, and after a while, Grandpa excused himself
Because he had to go to the toilet. When he returned,
However, his trousers were wet all over.. 'What happened,
Grandpa?' asked by his concerned children.

'Well,' he answered, 'I don't really know..
I had to go to the toilet. So I took it out and started to
Pee, but then I saw that it wasn't mine, so I put it back!'

Thanks Penny
