Blond Joke Protest has Dark Roots (my headline)

Dark side of blonde protest

Police say campaigners fighting for a ban on blonde jokes in Hungary turned violent in a protest outside a bar.

Hungary's Blonde Women's Movement marched on parliament to hand in a petition demanding MPs to outlaw blonde jokes.

Police have now revealed that they also staged a protest outside a bar called Blondy that turned to violence when staff tried to move them on.

Bar manager, Laszlo Bolyocki, said: "Our bar is a new one and we didn't want to cause any offence with the name.

"But when we tried to get rid of the protestors they turned violent, and threw cakes and eggs at the windows and urged their blonde sisters working here to go on strike."

Blonde Women's Movement founder Krisztina Timar, 29, said: "This bar was using dumb blonde jokes to promote itself.

"It's thanks to stunts like this that people look down on us - and we have much worse chances of getting a job."

Substitute your rival college team, pro team, country, etc. if you want to be sensitive to other groups.

e.g.
Q: Why doesn't Florida fall off into the Atlantic?

A: Because Georgia Sucks! (see how easy that was).

You find a CD in the copier.

har har har....this is my "I'm supposed to be sitting on the NJ Turnpike but we decided to drive up tomorrow morning so what the heck I'll check out FR" time.

Three girls are running from the police...a brunette, a redhead, and a blonde. They run into a barn and hide in sacks. The police chase after them into the barn. One officer kicks the sack with the brunette, asking, "WHO IS IN THERE?". The brunette barks out, "woof, woof"....so the officer says, "Oh, just a dog". He then kicks the sack with the redhead, and hears a "meow"...figures, "Oh, just a cat". He kicks the sack with the blonde hiding in it and says, "OK...WHO IS IN THERE?"

The blonde says, "Potatoe!"

(snicker....have a good day tomorrow!)

"How can you tell when a blond is really blond?"


Check and see if collars and cuff match.
