Funny Poop 
  • A very well-built young blonde lady was lying on her psychiatrist's couch, telling him how frustrated she was.  "I tried to be an actress and failed," she complained.  "I tried to be a secretary and failed; I tried being a writer and failed; then I tried being a sales clerk and I failed at that, too." 
The shrink thought for a moment and said... "Everyone needs to live a full, satisfying life. Why don't you try nursing?" 
The girl thinks about this, then bares one of her large, beautiful breasts, points it at the shrink, and says... "Well go ahead, I'll give it a try!" 

Etcetera

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! 
Ravens dark wings take flight 
Dive in and show them your might 
For Baltimore and Maryland 
You will fly on to victory
