Here's one I just rec'd that I hadn't heard before (hope you like it)...

An Italian, a Scotsman and a Chinese fellow are hired at
a construction site. The foreman points out a huge pile
of sand and says to the Italian guy, "You're in charge of
sweeping." To the Scotsman he says, "You're in charge of
shoveling." And to the Chinese guy, "You're in charge of
supplies."

He then says, "Now, I have to leave for a little while. I
expect you guys to make a big dent in that there pile."

So the foreman went away for a couple hours and when he
returns, the pile of sand is untouched. He asks the
Italian, "Why didn't you sweep any of it?"

The Italian replies, "I no hava no broom. You saida to the
Chinese a fella that he awasa in a charge of supplies, but
he hasa disappeared and I nocouldafinda him nowhere."

Then the foreman turns to the Scotsman and says, And you,
I thought I told you to shovel this pile."

The Scotsman replies, "Aye, ye did lad, boot ah couldnay
get meself a shoovel! Ye left th' Chinese gadgie in chairge
of supplies, boot ahcouldnay fin' him either."

The foreman is really angry now and storms off toward the
pile of sand to look for the Chinese guy. Just then, the
Chinese guy leaps out from behind the pile of sand and yells "SUPPLIES"!!

< giggle mode > That was cute!

Here's one right back atcha.

An English 101 class at Harvard was asked to write a CONCISE essay containing four elements -- religion, royalty, sex and mystery.


The only A+ in the class read:

"My God," said the Queen, "I'm pregnant. I wonder who did it?"
