<description>&lt;p&gt;A husband wrote the following letter for his wife and left it on the dining room table: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;To My Dear Wife, You will surely understand that I have certain needs that you, being 64 years old, can no longer satisfy. I am very happy with you, and I value you as a good wife. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Therefore, after reading this letter I hope you will not wrongly interpret the fact that I will be spending the evening with my 18-year-old secretary at the Comfort Inn Hotel. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Please don&amp;#39;t be upset - I shall be back home before midnight.&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;When the man came home late that night he found the following letter on the dining room table: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;To My Dear Husband,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I received your letter and thank you for your honesty about my being 64 years old. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you are also 64 years old. As you know, I am a maths teacher at our local college.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I would like to inform you, that while you&amp;#39;re at the Comfort Inn, I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of my students, who is also the assistant tennis coach. He is young, virile, and like your secretary, he is 18 years old. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a successful businessman with an excellent knowledge of maths, you will understand that we are in the same situation, although with one small difference; 18 goes into 64 a lot more times than 64 goes into 18. Therefore I will not be home until sometime tomorrow.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Here&amp;#39;s one that every female can do. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You might want to take it easy at first, then do it faster as you become more proficient. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It may be too strenuous for some. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Always consult your GP before starting any exercise programme. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;SCROLL DOWN... &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;NOW SCROLL UP... &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That&amp;#39;s enough for the first day. Great job. Have a chocolate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;:-D&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t mean really - I mean those times when you were stood in front of the bedroom mirror/ in the shower/ wherever, singing along to some fab tune and struting your funky stuff in front of thousands of adoring fans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have to confess I was in Bananarama for most of my teen years - LOL!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;For all of us who are married, were married,&amp;nbsp; wish &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;you were married, or wish you weren&amp;#39;t married,&amp;nbsp; this &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;is something to smile about the next&amp;nbsp; time you see a &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;bottle of wine: &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Sally was driving&amp;nbsp; home from one of her business &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;trips in Northern Arizona when she saw an elderly&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Navajo woman walking on the side of the road. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;As&amp;nbsp; the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;the car and asked the&amp;nbsp; Navajo woman if she would like&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;a ride.&amp;nbsp; With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got into&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;the&amp;nbsp; car. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Resuming the journey, Sally tried in vain to&amp;nbsp; make &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;a bit of small talk with the Navajo&amp;nbsp; woman. The old &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;woman just sat silently, looking intently&amp;nbsp; at &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;everything she saw, studying every&amp;nbsp; little detail, &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;until she noticed a brown bag on the seat next&amp;nbsp; to &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Sally. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;#39;What in bag?&amp;#39; asked the old woman. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Sally looked down at the brown&amp;nbsp; bag and said, &amp;#39;It&amp;#39;s &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;a bottle of wine. I&amp;nbsp; got it for my husband.&amp;#39; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;The Navajo woman was silent for&amp;nbsp; another moment or two. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Then&amp;nbsp; speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;she&amp;nbsp; said: &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;#39;Good trade.....&amp;#39;&amp;nbsp;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;A&amp;nbsp; store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a&lt;br /&gt;description of how the store operates&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#39;That&amp;#39;s nice,&amp;#39; she thinks, &amp;#39;but I want more.&amp;#39;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#39;Wow,&amp;#39; she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#39;Oh, mercy me!&amp;#39; she exclaims, &amp;#39;I can hardly stand it!&amp;#39; Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PLEASE NOTE:&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;To avoid gender bias charges, the store&amp;#39;s owner opened a New Wives store just across the street. The first floor has wives that love sex. The second&lt;br /&gt;floor has wives that love sex and have money and like beer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;I have a large, straight, Southen Comfort on one side of the laptop and a bowl of black olives on the other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Does that count as balanced...?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>A crusty old man walks into the local First Baptist Church and says to the secretary, &amp;quot;I would like to join this damn church.&amp;quot; The astonished woman replies, &amp;quot;I beg your pardon, sir. I must have misunderstood you. What did you say?&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;Listen up, damn it. I said I want to join this damn church!&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;I&amp;#39;m very sorry sir, but that kind of language is not tolerated in this church.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;The secretary leaves her desk and goes into the pastor&amp;#39;s study to inform him of her situation. The pastor agrees that the secretary does not have to listen to that foul language. They both return to her office and the pastor asks the old geezer,&amp;quot;Sir, what seems to be the problem here?&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;There is no damn problem,&amp;quot; the man says. &amp;quot;I just won $200 million bucks in the damn lottery and I want to join this damn church to get rid of some of this damn money.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;I see,&amp;quot; said the pastor. &amp;quot;And is this b1tch giving you a hard time?&amp;quot;</description>
