Ron

Funny Poop

A man has three girlfriends but doesn't know which one to marry.  So as a test, he gives each of them $5,000 to see how they spend them.

The first girlfriend gives herself a complete makeover.  She got a new hairstyle, new makeup, and a whole new wardrobe.  When asked why she did this, she said "I wanted to make myself beautiful for you because I love you so much."

The second girlfriend bought him a bunch of gifts, including a new set of golf clubs, an iPad and an 80-inch flatscreen TV.  When asked why she did this, she said "I bought these gifts for you because I love you so much."

The third girlfriend took the money and invested it in the stock market.  She doubled her investment, gave the $5k back to him and re-invested the rest.  When asked why, she said "I'm investing this money for our future together because I love you so much."

The man thought long and hard about how each girlfriend spent the money, and after careful consideration, he married the one with the biggest tits.

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

Funny Poop

Three dead bodies turn up at the mortuary, all with very big smiles on their faces.  The coroner calls the police to tell them what has happened.

"First body: Frenchman, 60, died of heart failure while making love to his mistress.  Hence the enormous smile, Inspector", says the Coroner.

"Second body: Scotsman, 25, won a thousand pounds on the lottery, spent it all on whisky.  Died of alcohol poisoning, hence the smile."

The Inspector asked, "What of the third body?"

"Ah," says the coroner, "this is the most unusual one.  Billy-Bob the redneck from Oklahoma, 30, struck by lightning."  

"Why is he smiling then?" inquires the Inspector.

"Thought he was having his picture taken.
