finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
The wife
quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.
When she
opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbour.
Before
she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'
After
thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in
front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.
The
woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.
When
she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'W ho was that?'
'It
was Bob the next door neighbour,' she replies.
'Great,' the
husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'

Lesson 2:
A
priest offered a Nun a lift.
She got in and crossed her legs,
forcing her gown to reveal a leg.
The priest nearly had an
accident.
After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand
up her leg.
The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'
The
priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up
her leg again. The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm
129?'
The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is
weak.'
Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went
on her way.
On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to
look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will
find glory.'
Moral of the story: If you are not well
informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.

and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just
one wish.' 'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be
in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.' Puff!
She's gone.
'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to
be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an
endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'
Puff!

Lesson 5
A turkey was chatting
with a bull.
'I would love to be able to get to the top of that
tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.' 'Well, why
don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're
packed with nutrients.'
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and
found it actually gave him enough str ength to reach the lowest branch
of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more dung, he
reached the second branch.
Finally after a fourth night, the
turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.
He was pr
omptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.
Moral
of the story: Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep
you there..
Lesson 6

south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the
ground into a large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came
by and dropped some dung on him.
As the frozen bird lay there in
the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.
The
dung was actually thawing him out!
He lay there all warm and
happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird
singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat
discovered t he bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him
out and ate him.
Morals of the story: (1) Not everyone
who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you
out of shit is your friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit,
it's best to keep your mouth shut!
