Funny Poop

·       "If you'll make the toast and pour the juice, sweetheart," said Tracy, the newlywed bride, "breakfast will be ready."

"Good, what are we having for breakfast?" asked Dewey, the new husband.

"Toast and juice," Tracy replied.

 

·       After dating a young lady for some time a young man decides it is time to marry her.  He proceeds with all the necessary plans and finally the day comes.  On the day of the wedding the young man has yet to pay the pastor for performing the ceremony.  However the pastor has a plan.  The service proceeds as planned the vows are exchanged etc.  Now it is time for the groom to kiss his bride.  The pastor sees this as the perfect opportunity to ask to be paid.  He pulls the young man aside and asks him.  “Can you please pay me?”

Not wanting to create a seen the young man asked. “How much do I owe you?”

The pastor thinks quickly and replies, “pay me according to your wife's beauty.”

The young man discretely pulled out five dollars and gave it to the pastor.

Although annoyed by this, the pastor continues the ceremony and says; “you may now kiss the bride.”  At this point the veil is lifted from the brides face to allow the groom to kiss her.  As the groom is about to kiss his new bride the pastor interrupts and promptly hand the groom four dollars and fifty cents.

 

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
