Emergency jokes
« on: May 29, 2012, 02:23:21 AM »
I have left it until the last minute. Our Toastmaster group is meeting tomorrow night for awards "37 minutes of humour" and pizza - the public has been invited!

Each of us needs a joke or two and I have nothing but a box of iris tubers to take in and share about.

Any brilliant jokes would be most appreciated.

Thanks. Perhaps I will bake some lemon meringue pies to take in to go along with that joke.

A lady cook in a Botany Centre canteen was given the honour of naming a new plant discovery just at the same moment as she was calling a customer across to collect his freshly prepared meal.

"As you have been working hard at this centre of excellence for 25 years, we'd like you to name this plant", said the head botanist.

"Irish Stew, Bert", she called out to her customer.

And so the plant, accidentally, acquired its name.

I would if I understood the 'Joke', 'pun', 'play on words', etc.  ... But I didn't.

I tried to understand it, I really did…are you sure the customer’s name was Bert?

Oh, that would have been good to go with the iris tubers I was giving away!

It was the 't' on the end that confused me.  I was thinking 'I arrest you, Bert' as all previous incarnations (oh, I thought of a flower there!) of the 'irish stew' knock knock joke meant that.

Yes, I wrote it specially for you, to go with the custard-pie-in-the-face routine you had planned.

Why did the chicken cross the road? Because it was in the fox's mouth.

Do they appreciate rude jokes? I could make you the new Bernard Manning. Seeing as there's a vacancy.
