A deaf/mute couple show up at the drugstore to purchase condoms.

The husband signs to the wife: "How can I make the druggist understand what I want?"

She signed back: "Just go in and show him your penis, and he'll figure it out."

So that's what he does. But later he comes out of the drugstore and he doesn't have any condoms.

His wife signs: "What happened? Why don't you have any condoms?"

He signs back: "I went in, and took out my penis and showed it to him. I then put $10 on the counter for the condoms. The druggist then took out his penis. His was bigger, and he took my $10 !"

Fishing In A Puddle...

“Poor Old fool,” thought the well-dressed gentleman as he watched an old man fish in a puddle outside a pub.

So he invited the old man inside for a drink.

As they sipped their whiskeys, the gentleman thought he’d humor the old man and asked, “So how many have you caught today?”

The old man replied, “You’re the eighth.”

:Smirk:

Medical jokes are awkward. Can be either obscure to the layman or too near the bone for general use. But you may find this one both amusing and amazingly accurate:

Neurotics build castles in the air. Psychotics live in them. And psychiatrists collect the rent.

A Surprise...

His request approved, the CNN News photographer quickly used a cell phone to call the local airport to charter a flight.

He was told a twin-engine plane would be waiting for him at the airport.

Arriving at the airfield, he spotted a plane warming up outside a hanger.

He jumped in with his bag, slammed the door shut, and shouted, 'Let's go'.

The pilot taxied out, swung the plane into the wind and took off.

Once in the air, the photographer instructed the pilot, 'Fly over the valley and make low passes so I can take pictures of the fires on the hillsides.'

'Why?' asked the pilot.

'Because I'm a photographer for CNN', he responded, 'and I need to get some close up shots.'

The pilot was strangely silent for a moment, finally he stammered, 'So, what you're telling me, is . . . You're NOT my flight instructor?'

I've missed this thread entirely (well heck, I'm not around much these days), but here's my contribution. I'm using a service on my iPhone to intercept calls in order to control spam, and they have a variety of pre-recorded greetings you can choose from. They have a bunch of funny ones, but this is a variation of my favorite one.

A joke, hopefully to cheer everyone up. It is sort of medical, but well within the bounds of decency, I think.

A new Nurse turned up on the ward. The Charge Nurse took her round the patients. One such patient was being fed by a tube into his rectum.

The new Nurse was warned that all his food had to be delivered that way, but the one thing she must never, ever do was give him a cup of tea by that route.

Time passed and the Nurse got to know this man quite well, and one day he begged her for some tea. He craved a cupful of tea. At first she refused, but his pleadings struck a chord with her and she consented.

The tea was administered. A few minutes later, there was a scream from the patient and the Nurse came running to him. “Whatever’s the matter?”, she said, trembling.

The patient said, “you forgot the sugar”.
