Ever have a strange thought?

If they ever come up with a swashbuckling School, I think
one of the courses should be Laughing, Then Jumping Off
Something.
When you're riding in a time machine way far into the
future, don't stick your elbow out the window, or it'll turn
into a fossil.

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to
laugh at that man.

At first I thought, if I were Superman, a perfect secret
identity would be "Clark Kent, Dentist," because you could
save money on tooth X-rays. But then I thought, if a patient
said, "How's my back tooth?" and you just looked at it with
your X-ray vision and said, "Oh it's okay," then the patient
would probably say, "Aren't you going to take an X-ray,
stupid?" and you'd say, "Aw fuck you, get outta here," and
then he probably wouldn't even pay his bill.

One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was
going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I
drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said.
"Disneyland burned down." He cried and cried, but I think
that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. I
started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was
getting pretty late.

A good way to threaten somebody is to light a stick of
dynamite. Then you call the guy and hold the burning fuse up
to the phone. "Hear that?" you say. "That's dynamite,
baby."

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better
treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all
that rocking back and forth you'd probably be able to get a
lot of free games.

I'd like to be buried Indian-style, where they put you up on
a high rack, above the ground. That way, you could get hit
by meteorites and not even feel it.

If I lived back in the wild west days, instead of carrying a
six-gun in my holster, I'd carry a soldering iron. That way,
if some smart-aleck cowboy said something like "Hey, look.
He's carrying a soldering iron!" and started laughing, and
everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's
right

.....it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice."
Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because
they had made fun of the soldering iron of justice, and I
could probably hit them up for a free drink.

I bet when the neanderthal kids would make a snowman,
someone would always end up saying, "Don't forget the thick,
heavy brows." Then they would all get embarrassed because
they remembered they had the big hunky brows too, and they'd
get mad and eat the snowman.

Fear can sometimes be a useful emotion. For instance, let's
say you're an astronaught on the moon and you fear that your
partner has been turned into Dracula. The next time he goes
out for the moon pieces, wham!, you just slam the door
behind him and blast off. He might call you on the radio and
say he's not Dracula, but you just say, "Think again, bat
man."

Too bad you can't buy a voodoo globe so that you could make
the earth spin real fast and freak everybody out.

The people in the village were real poor, so none of the
children had any toys. But this one little boy had gotten an
old enema bag and filled it with rocks, and he would go
around and whap the other children across the face with it.
Man, I think my heart almost broke. Later the boy came up
and offered to give me the toy. This was too much! I reached
out my hand, but then he ran away. I chased him down and
took the enema bag. He cried a little, but that's the way of
these people.

I wish I had a Kryptonite cross, because then you could keep
both Dracula AND Superman away.

I don't think I'm alone when I say I'd like to see more and
more planets fall under the ruthless domination of our solar
system.

Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I
guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the
word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two
separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean
? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

i'd like to go to the American Civil War armed with one uzi
and whip it out in battle, firing upon both sides. That way,
they would unite for a common good, and i would effectively
save the country.
yes.

I hope if dogs ever take over the world, and they chose a
king, they don't just go by size, because I bet there are
some Chihuahuas with some good ideas.

I guess we were all guilty, in a way. We all shot him, we
all skinned him, and we all got a complimentary bumper
sticker that said, "I helped skin Bob."

I bet the main reason the police keep people away from a
plane crash is they don't want anybody walking in and lying
down in the crash stuff, then, when somebody comes up, act
like they just woke up and go, "What was THAT?!"

The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth
part of the face.

Ambition is like a frog sitting on a Venus Flytrap. The
flytrap can bite and bite, but it won't bother the frog
because it only has little tiny plant teeth. But some other
stuff could happen and it could be like ambition.

I'd rather be rich than stupid.

If you were a poor Indian with no weapons, and a bunch of
conquistadors came up to you and asked where the gold was, I
don't think it would be a good idea to say, "I swallowed it.
So sue me."

If you define cowardice as running away at the first sign of
danger, screaming and tripping and begging for mercy, then
yes, Mr. Brave man, I guess I'm a coward.

I bet one legend that keeps recurring throughout history, in
every culture, is the story of Popeye.

When you go in for a job interview, I think a good thing to
ask is if they ever press charges.

To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music, no
choreography, and the dancers hit each other.

What is it that makes a complete stranger dive into an icy
river to save a solid gold baby? Maybe we'll never know.

We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients. But we
can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is
what annoys me.

Probably the earliest flyswatters were nothing more than
some sort of striking surface attached to the end of a long
stick.

I think someone should have had the decency to tell me the
luncheon was free. To make someone run out with potato salad
in his hand, pretending he's throwing up, is not what I call
hospitality.

To me, clowns aren't funny. In fact, they're kind of scary.
I've wondered where this started and I think it goes back to
the time I went to the circus, and a clown killed my dad.

As I bit into the nectarine, it had a crisp juiciness about
it that was very pleasurable - until I realized it wasn't a
nectarine at all, but A HUMAN HEAD!!

Most people don't realize that large pieces of coral, which
have been painted brown and attached to the skull by common
wood screws, can make a child look like a deer.

If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting
them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no
good reason.

Better not take a dog on the space shuttle, because if he
sticks his head out when you're coming home his face might
burn up.

You know what would make a good story? Something about a
clown who make people happy, but inside he's real sad. Also,
he has severe diarrhea.

Sometimes when I feel like killing someone, I do a little
trick to calm myself down. I'll go over to the persons house
and ring the doorbell. When the person comes to the door,
I'm gone, but you know what I've left on the porch? A
jack-o-lantern with a knife stuck in the side of it's head
with a note that says "You." After that I usually feel a lot
better, and no harm done.

If you're a horse, and someone gets on you, and falls off,
and then gets right back on you, I think you should buck him
off right away.

If you ever teach a yodeling class, probably the hardest
thing is to keep the students from just trying to yodel
right off. You see, we build to that.

If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp,
because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will try
to catch you because, hey, free dummy.

I'd like to see a nude opera, because when they hit those
high notes, I bet you can really see it in those genitals.

Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto
someones neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off,
I have to laugh, because what is that thing.

He was a cowboy, mister, and he loved the land. He loved it
so much he made a woman out of dirt and married her. But
when he kissed her, she disintegrated. Later, at the
funeral, when the preacher said, "Dust to dust," some people
laughed, and the cowboy shot them. At his hanging, he told
the others, "I'll be waiting for you in heaven--with a
gun."

The memories of my family outings are still a source of
strength to me. I remember we'd all pile into the car - I
forget what kind it was - and drive and drive. I'm not sure
where we'd go, but I think there were some trees there. The
smell of something was strong in the air as we played
whatever sport we played. I remember a bigger, older guy we
called "Dad." We'd eat some stuff, or not, and then I think
we went home. I guess some things never leave you.

If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to
tell him is "God is crying." And if he asks why God is
crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because
of something you did."

Contrary to what most people say, the most dangerous animal
in the world is not the lion or the tiger or even the
elephant. It's a shark riding on an elephant's back, just
trampling and eating everything they see.

As we were driving, we saw a sign that said "Watch for
Rocks." Marta said it should read "Watch for Pretty Rocks."
I told her she should write in her suggestion to the highway
department, but she started saying it was a joke - just to
get out of writing a simple letter! And I thought I was
lazy!

One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was
going to take my little nephew to DisneyLand, but instead I
drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said,
"DisneyLand burned do

if i was a pokémon, could i write normally or would
i only be able to write "zim zim uzim zim ziiim"-like
stuff?

if i was a computer, would i be able to send e-mails, visit
websites etc.?

what if i was a shimpanzee, but would turn myself into a
human each time i'd look at myself?

if all humans were corn flakes, would milk be considered as
god or as the devil?

maybe everything we imagine actually exists in another
universe... and everything they imagine in that another
universe is what actually exists in ours...
but we can't imagine something out of nothing...
...or can we? maybe it's just an illusion, maybe we can
imagine something and just think we were inspired by
something else already existing because we tend to compare
new things to old things...

what does the back of my eyes look like?

These extracts are (allegedly) from actual letters sent to
various councils and housing associations throughout the
UK:

I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired
and
burnt my knob off.

I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle very badly
when
he put his foot in the hole in his back passage.. and their
14 year old son
is continually banging his balls against my fence.

I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside
toilet
roof. I think it was bad wind the other night that blew them
off.

My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand.

I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from
the
wall.

Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My
wife
tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is pregnant we
are getting
married in September and we would like it in the garden
before we move into
the house.

I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.

50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and
the
rest are plain filthy.

I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers.

The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until
it
is cleared.

Will you please send a man to look at my water, it is a
funny
colour and not fit to drink.

Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three
pieces.

Would you please send a man to repair my spout. I am an old
age
pensioner and need it badly.

I want to complain about the farmer across the road; every
morning at 6am his cock wakes me up and its now getting too
much for me.

The man next door has a large erection in the back garden,
which
is unsightly and dangerous.

Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two children and would
like a
third so please send someone round to do something about
it.

I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would
you
please do something about the noise made by the man I have
on top of me
every night.

Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and
satisfy my wife.

I have had t
