Top 10 Puns

Here are the top ten winners in the International Pun Contest -- From Mr. Richard Hill (credit where credit is due)

1. A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons. The
stewardess looks at him and says, "I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion
allowed per passenger."

2. Two fish swim into a concrete wall. The one turns to the other and
says, "Dam"!

3. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in
the
craft. Not surprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can't have
your kayak and heat it too.

4. Two hydrogen atoms meet. One says "I've lost my electron." The other
says "Are you sure?" The first replies "Yes, I'm positive."

5. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root
canal? His goal: transcend dental medication.

6. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing
in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about
an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse.
"But why?" they asked, as they moved off. "Because", he said, "I can't
stand chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer."

7. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes
to
a family in Egypt and is named "Ahmal." The other goes to a family in
Spain; they name him "Juan." Years later, Juan sends a picture of
himself to his birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her
husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal. Her husband
responds, "They're twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."

8. These friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up
a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy
flowers
from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the
competition
was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would
not.
He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the
rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug
in town to "persuade" them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and
trashed
their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop.
Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that only Hugh can prevent
florist friars.

9. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which
produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very
little, which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered
from bad breath. This made him (Oh, man, this is so bad, it's
good).....
A super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

10. And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to
his
friends, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them
laugh. No pun in ten did!

My old favorite:

Arizona Institute of Technology had a program on aging. They managed to suspend the aging processes on a dolphin. One of the items needed was only found in baby seagulls. The lab ran out of their supply and sent a undergrad to the gulf coast of Texas where he picked up a bunch of baby seagulls. He was speeding back home and was pulled over and arrested by New Mexico state troopers for carrying underage gulls across state lines for immortal porpoises.
 
Geeeez...those were funny in the fifth grade. Underage Gulls? I think one just shit on my boat! Crab feed?
 
Where do you post a new topic at?
 
Up at the top where it says, "Blog This". I admit, that's strange but we do the best we can with the tools we got.
 
UJh, Mr. Rumsfeld, could you spare a scrap of kevlar for my body armor? Or do I have to go to war with used old puns to protect myself?
