Chapter 262

Say Thanks to Esox ‎ for this one!

Another day in paradise...

a few days after the creation god strolled leisurely through the garden Eden pleased with what he saw.

under one of the trees was Adam lazing in the sun chewing on a stem of sweet grass.

howzit going buddy? god said.

well, said Adam good so far - but I am bored out of my mind!- nothing to do!

we can*t have that says god- gimme a few days and i will come up with something!

next time they meet god says: boy have I got the thing for you! Funny, entertaining and cuddly- but it will cost you a little!

how much? says Adam.

well, god replies, not much-just an arm and a leg!

Adam starts wailing and pulling his hair (remember god created him from Jewish clay!)

so god (not used to these tantrums yet) says:

well i see, how much are you willing to give?

feeling the upper hand Adam says:

How much do i get for a rib?

Can anyone answer sejintenej inquiry??????

A weasel walks into a bar.

The Bartender says, “Wow, I’ve never served a weasel before. What can I get you?”

“Pop,” goes the weasel.

This is in early 1900’s English or earlier. I wonder how many non-British readers understand weasel or pop in this context.

Looking at the sources found by Google none included the correct “weasel” and I only just found one correct meaning for “pop”

Ladies and Gentlemen, as you can see I need more new items.

Please forward.
