Funny Poop
  • A middle-aged couple had finally learned how to send and receive texts on their cell phones. The Wife, being a romantic at heart, decided one day that she'd send her Husband a text while she was out of the house having coffee with a friend. She texted: "If you are sleeping, send me your dreams. If you are laughing, send me your smile. If you are eating, send me a bite. If you are drinking, send me a sip. If you are crying, send me your tears. I love you". The Husband, being a no-nonsense sort of guy, texted back: "I'm on the toilet. Please advise".
  • At a pharmacy, Judi asked to use the infant scale to weigh the baby she held in her arms. The clerk explained that the device was out for repairs, but said that she would figure the infant's weight by weighing Judi and baby together on the adult scale, then weighing the mother alone and subtracting the second amount from the first. "It won't work" Judi countered. "I'm not the mother, I'm the aunt".
  • Paddy took 2 stuffed dogs to the 'Antiques Roadshow'. "Ooh!" said the presenter "This is a very rare set, produced by the celebrated Johns Brothers taxidermists who operated in London at the turn of last century. Do you have any idea what they would fetch if they were in good condition?" "Sticks...?" Paddy replied.
  • Bert feared his wife Peg wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family doctor to discuss the problem.
The doctor told him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give the doctor a better idea about her hearing loss.
"Here's what you do" said the doctor "stand about 40 feet away from her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet and so on until you get a response".
That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner and he was in the den. He says to himself "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens". Then in a normal tone he asks "Honey, what's for dinner?"
No response.
So the husband moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife and repeats "Peg, what's for dinner?"
Still no response.
Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his Wife and asks "Honey, what's for dinner?"
Again he gets no response.
So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away. "Honey, what's for dinner?"
Again there is no response.
So he walks right up behind her. "Peg, what's for dinner?"
"For cripes sake, Bert, for the FIFTH time, CHICKEN!"

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
