The Fabulous Friday Funnies

When I got home from work last night, my wife demanded that I take her out to some place expensive……………….
So I took her to a petrol station!!!!!!!


Why did the guru refuse novocaine? He wanted to transcend dental medication.


An American journalist was stopped at a Russian Checkpoint in the bullet-pocked suburb of Chechnya.

The Russian soldier said, “Get out of the car and open the trunk!”

The American replied, “I’m sorry, but the handbrake on the car is broken. I can’t take my foot off the brake or it’ll roll back down the hill.”

So the Russian says, “Do you take me for a FOOL?!” as he slides into the passenger seat, and stamps his big boot onto the brake pedal.

“Now, go and open the trunk!”

So the journalist reluctantly complies with the soldiers request and goes and opens the trunk of the car.

“Now”, shouts the Russian from inside the car, “Is there any contraband in there?”


Blonde Jokes

A: It has a stamp on it.

Q: Why do blondes have “TGIF” on their shoes?
A: Toes go in first.

Q: Why shouldn’t blondes have coffee breaks?
A: It takes too long to retrain them.

While my wife and I were shopping at a mall, a shapely young woman in a short, form-fitting dress strolled by. My eyes followed her.

Without looking up from the item she was examining, my wife asked, “Was that worth the trouble you’re in?”


A man is out shopping and discovers a new brand of Olympic condoms. Clearly impressed, he buys a pack. Upon getting home he announces to his wife the purchase he just made.

“Olympic condoms?” she says “What makes them so special?” “There are three colours”, he replies, “Gold, Silver and Bronze”..

“What colour are you going to wear tonight?”, she asks cheekily. “Gold of course”, says the man proudly.

The wife responds, “Why don’t you wear Silver, it would be nice if you came second for a change!!


Back in the days of the Roman Empire, the famous Emperor Nero instituted a new game. The players would take those little disks you set your glass on in order to protect the furniture, and see who could get the most distance rolling them across the floor.

They were the first roller coasters. Back in those days, the disks were made of iron, and they would bet on whose disk would roll the farthest.

They called them ferrous wheels.


A woman had gained a few pounds. It was most noticeable to her when she squeezed into a pair of her old blue jeans.

Wondering if the added weight was noticeable to everyone else, she asked her husband, “Honey, do these jeans make me look like the side of the house?”

“No, dear, not at all,” he replied, “Our house isn’t blue.”


Things You’d Love to Say at Work, but Can’t

  1. Ahhh… I see the fuck-up fairy has visited us again.
  2. I don’t know what your problem is, but I’ll bet it’s hard to pronounce.
  3. How about never? Is never good for you?
  4. I see you’ve set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public.

The old Indian chief sat in his home on the reservation, smoking his ceremonial pipe, eyeing the two U.S. government officials sent to interview him. “Chief Two Eagles,” one official began, “you have observed the white man for many years. You have seen all his progress and all his problems.”

The chief nodded. The official continued, “What do you think of all the white man has done?” The chief stared at the officials for more than a minute, and then calmly replied. “When white man found the land, Indians were running it. No taxes. No debt. Plenty buffalo, plenty beaver. Women did most of the work. Medicine man free. Indian men hunted and fished all the time.”

The chief paused, then added, “Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that.”


“A Romanian man is in the hospital after getting drunk and swallowing 120 coins on a bet. Doctors monitoring his situation say so far, no change.” –Jay Leno


Never let your man’s mind wander – it’s too little to be out alone.


All eyes were on the radiant bride as her father escorted her down the aisle. They reached the altar and the waiting groom; the bride kissed her father and placed something in his hand. The guests in the front pews responded with ripples of laughter. Even the priest smiled broadly.

As her father gave her away in marriage, the bride gave him back his credit card.

Sony PS3 Released in NZ tonight at midnight

Well the hype has been building up for quite a while now, and from what I’ve seen at a local Harvey Norman, it has all the right to be. The next generation Sony Playstation 3 or PS3 as it’s known as, will be a huge leap from it’s predecessor the PS2.
Available for purchase from tomorrow morning and at midnight tonight for those that have pre-ordered. The PS3 in NZ is going for around $1199 for the base model with one controller at release date.

I’ve had a play on it and it looks fantastic, the graphics are just awesome and having a wireless controller like the Xbox 360 has had will come in handy for people who sit a fair way back from their TV. The graphics will always look good in the shop, because they will have it hooked up to a high definition TV, which most people still wont have at home.
I’d really like to get one, but will be holding out until the price comes down a fair bit.
After all, Good Cheap things gadgets take time.

Apple iPhone

I want one.. Due out in America in June, so we can expect to see it sometime next year most probably.
Apparently going to be hugely expensive, so I can only assume that when it hits NZ it’ll be the same price as a deposit on a house!

Some of the coolest things you can’t even see on the iPhone, it’s inside.
Like the sensor that if you have turned the iPhone from portrait to landscape and adjusts the screen display to match. Or the sensor that disables and turns off the touch screen when you bring the iPhone up to your ear to receive a call. Or the light sensitivity sensor that adjusts the screen brightness as the ambient light changes around the iPhone.

Apple iPhone

Technical Specifications
Screen size: 3.5 inches
Screen resolution: 320 by 480 at 160 ppi
Input method: Multi-touch
Operating system: OS X
Storage: 4GB or 8GB
GSM: Quad-band (MHz: 850, 900, 1800, 1900)
Wireless data: Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) + EDGE + Bluetooth 2.0
Camera: 2.0 megapixels
Battery:

* Up to 5 hours Talk / Video / Browsing
* Up to 16 hours Audio playback

Dimensions: 4.5 x 2.4 x 0.46 inches / 115 x 61 x 11.6mm
Weight: 4.8 ounces / 135 grams

Shame about the small storage capacity, but I’m sure the advanced user interface, phone, camera and multi touch screen display will make up for it.

I really recommend watching the keynote address.
