Funny Poop
- One night a man walks into a bar with a pig. The bartender says to the man "That's a great looking pig, but why does he have a wooden leg?" So the man says "Let me tell you about this pig. He is one special pig. One night my house was on fire and he dragged me to safety. Saved my life".
The bartender says. "Well, that's great. But why does he have a wooden leg?" The man says "Let me tell you about this pig. He is one special pig. One time I was out sailing and the boat capsized. This pig swam me to safety. Saved my life".
The bartender says "That's really terrific, but why the wooden leg?" The man says "Let me tell you about this pig. He is one special pig. Last week during an earthquake my house collapsed and my pig pulled me out. Saved my life".
And finally the bartender says "Wow, that is one special pig. He saved you from a fire, an earthquake and from drowning. But why does he have a wooden leg?"
The man says "When you have a pig this special you can't eat all of it at once".
- Father O'Malley has been preaching at his church in Ireland for so long, that he decides to take a vacation. He has never been married and he is curious as to what an American endures in everyday life. So, he decides to go to the States before it is too late.
He hops on the plane bound for Nevada. He arrives in the Airport in Las Vegas. As he is exiting the plane, someone in the airport runs up to him and exclaims "Elvis! Oh my God! It's Elvis! I knew you weren't dead Elvis! How have you been?" Father looks at her and says "Get outta me face. C an't you see I'm not Elvis? I don't look a thing like Elvis!"
The father moves on to his cab waiting outside. He hops in his cab and he's a little upset so he tells the cabby "Take me to my hotel and step on it". The cabby turns and says "Sure thing sir...oh my God! It's Elvis! I knew you weren't dead! I'm your number one fan! It's so great to see you!" "Shut up, you imbecile. I'm not Elvis! Now turn around and drive!"
So, the cabby speeds up to the hotel. Father O'Malley gets his things and walks up to the hotel check-in counter. "Oh my God! Oh my God! It's you!" screams the hotel clerk. "You're back Elvis! I knew this day would happen. We saved everything just the way you like it! Free cheeseburgers, peanut butter and banana fried sandwiches, masseurs, complementary hookers and a full liquor bar! I'm so glad you're back!" Father O'Malley looks at the hotel clerk and says "Thank you...thank you very much..."

Baltimore Ravens, let’s go
And put that ball across the line
So fly with talons spread wide
Go in and strike with Ravens pride
Fight! Fight! Fight!

Dive in and show them your might
