Dear Billie Joe Jim Bob,

I'm writing this slow because I know you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your Pa read in the newspaper that most accidents happen within 20 minutes of your home, so we moved. I won't be able to send you the address because the last family that lived here took the house numbers when they moved so they wouldn't have to change their address.

This place is really nice. I even has a washing machine. I'm not sure
it works so well, though, Last week I put a load of clothes in and pulled the chain, we haven't seen it since. The weather isn't bad here. It only rained twice last week; the first time for three days and the second time for four days.

About that coat you wanted me to send; your Uncle Bubba said it would
be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on, so we cut them off and put them in the pockets.

Bubba locked his keys in the car yesterday. We were really worried because it took him two hours to get me and your father out.Your sister had a baby this morning,but I haven't found out what it is yet so I don't know if you are an aunt or uncle. The baby looks just like your brother.

Uncle Bobby Ray fell into a whiskey vat last week. Some men tried to pull him out but he fought them off and drowned. We had him cremated; he burned for three days.

Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pickup truck. Butch was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. Your other twofriends were in the back, they drowned because they couldn't get the tailgate down.

Love Your Favorite Aunt

Farmer Joe was in his car when he was hit by a truck.

He decided his injuries from the accident were serious
enough to take the trucking company (responsible for
the accident) to court. In court the trucking
company's fancy lawyer was questioning farmer Joe.
"Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident,
'I'm fine'?" said the lawyer.

Farmer Joe responded, "Well I'll tell you what happened.
I had just loaded my favorite mule Bessie into the...."

"I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer interrupted,
"just answer the question." "Did you not say, at the
scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'!"

Farmer Joe said, "Well I had just got Bessie into the
trailer and I was driving down the road...."

The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am trying
to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident,
this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he
was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he
is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud.
Please tell him to simply answer the question."

By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe's
answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has
to say about his favorite mule Bessie."

Joe thanked the Judge and proceeded, "Well as I was saying,
I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer
and was driving her down the highway when this huge
semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked
my truck right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch
and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real
bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ole
Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible
shape just by her groans. Shortly after the accident a
Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear
Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her.
After he looked at her, he took out his gun and shot
her between the eyes. Then the Patrolman came across
the road with his gun in his hand and looked at me.
He said, "Your mule was in such bad shape I had to
shoot her. How are you feeling?"

 

I MISS YOUR HELP SON

An old man lived alone in Idaho. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, Bubba, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.

Dear Bubba,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant
my potato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a
garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you
would dig the plot for me.

Love Dad

A few days later he received a letter from his son.

Dear Dad,
For heaven's sake, dad, don't dig up that garden, that's where I buried
the BODIES.
Love Bubba

At 4A.M. the next morning, F.B.I. agents and local police showed up anddug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.

Dear Dad,
Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That's the best I could do under
the circumstances.
Love Bubba.

Brain teasers

A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms.
The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with
loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3
years. Which room is safest for him?

A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

There are two plastic jugs filled with water. How could you put all of this water into a barrel, without using the jugs or any dividers, and still tell which water came from which jug?

What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?

Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?


This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.

Answers:


The third. Lions that haven't eaten in three years are dead.

The woman was a photographer. She shot a picture of her husband,
developed it, and hung it up to dry.

Freeze them first. Take them out of the jugs and put the ice in the
barrel. You will be able to tell which water came from which jug.

The answer is Charcoal.

Sure you can: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow!

The letter "e," which is the most common letter in the English language,
does not appear once in the long paragraph...
