Super Bowl Tickets
A
buddy of mine has two tickets for the 2017 Super Bowl. Box seats plus
airfares, accommodation etc., but he didn't realize when he bought them
that this is going to
be on the same day as his wedding - so he can't go.
If you're interested and want to go instead of him, it's at St. Peter's Church in Osborne Park, Baltimore at 5pm. Her name's Louise. She'll be the one in the white dress.
(Thanks, Billy!)

Politics explained
I told my son, "You will marry the girl I choose."
He said, "NO!"
I said, "She's Bill Gates' daughter."
He said, "OK."
I called Bill Gates and told him, "I want my son to marry your daughter."
He said, "NO."
I told Bill Gates, "My son is the CEO of the World Bank."
Bill Gates said, "OK."
I called the President of the World Bank and asked him to make my son the CEO.
He said, "NO."
I told him, "My son is Bill Gates' son-in-law."
He said, "NO!"
I said, "She's Bill Gates' daughter."
He said, "OK."
I called Bill Gates and told him, "I want my son to marry your daughter."
He said, "NO."

Bill Gates said, "OK."
I called the President of the World Bank and asked him to make my son the CEO.
He said, "NO."
I told him, "My son is Bill Gates' son-in-law."
He said, "OK."
And THAT, my friends, is exactly
how the political system works.

After a long day at work, I stopped in at Hooters to see some friends and have some of their Hot Wings (and drinks).
After being there for a while, one of my friends asked me which waitress I would like to be stuck in an elevator with.
I told him, “The one who knows how to fix elevators.”
I’m old, I'm tired, and I pee a lot…

Nerd Joke
A kid takes a chemistry test, but in order to pass the class he has to get a perfect score on the test. He studied hard, but when he gets it back he got one question wrong. The question was "How many valence electrons does hydrogen have?" In a rush, he had answered, "Two".
Depressed, he walks home. But as he is walking he kicks a random lamp. He picks up the lamp and suddenly a genie flies out of it and says, "In return for releasing me from the lamp, I will grant you one wish!"
The kid replies, "I wish got that question right," and the universe explodes.

The Chicken Farm
A man goes to the supply store and buys 300 chicks. He tells the owner, "I'm going to start a chicken farm!"
A couple of weeks later he returns and buys 300 more. The owner thinks it's weird but doesn't ask any questions.
Another couple of weeks later he returns to make the same purchase. At this point the owner is baffled and asks, "Why do you come back every couple of weeks and make the same purchase?"
The would-be farmer replies, "Well, I must be doin' somethin' wrong. I'm either planting them too deep or too close together."
