Funny Poop 
  • Q. What is the cheapest meat? A. Deer balls, there under a buck. 
  • There was this sapling that didn't know what kind of tree he was.  He was growing up between a birch tree and a beech tree and thought they might be able to tell him what kind of tree he was.  First he asks Mr. Birch Tree and says.."Mr. Birch, Mr. Birch, I gotta know...am I a son of a beech or a son of a birch?"  Mr. Birch replies, "Well, I don't know, you could be a son of a beech, you could be a son of a birch, why don't you go ask Mr. Beech?"   So the sapling goes "Mr. Beech, Mr. Beech, I gotta know, am I a son of a Beech or a son of a birch?"  And Mr. Beech says, "well, I don't know, but I do know someone that will be able to tell you, I'll call him up and he'll tell you what you are." So, Mr. Beech calls good ole Mr. Woodpecker and explains the situation to him.  Mr. Woodpecker explains to the sapling that he must take a nibble of his bark to be able to tell him what he is and the sapling agrees.  Well, the woodpecker takes a nibble and exclaims "My...you're neither a son of a beech or a son of a birch, but the finest piece of ash I've ever put my pecker in!"

 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
