When I was in high school in Boston, an intramural team was named the Mass.
Debaters. When scores were announced over the intercom, an very annoyed
voice would call them the Massachusetts Debaters --- that is, after reading
it correctly from the scoresheet the first time!

Your 'joke' is highly offensive to all ducks.  This type of humor slanders
them, giving them an image of being smart alecs who do not pay for merchandise
they get.

I think you need a lesson in compassion, Mr. Dominus.

Come on people !!
GET WITH IT !!

I read at least FIVE full postings of the "green golf
ball" joke and everyone of them changed vital details
from the original (posted back around 1979).

The man's dick was striped, not "checkered" !!!!
The cat was inflated with helium, not "laughing gas" !!!
There were 13 green golf balls used in the sex ritual,
not seven !!!

I hate it when netters wait for so long to finally 
get a full posting of the joke, and so many of you
fuck it up by forgetting the details.

In the hey day of NASA (about 1967-1978) there was a organization called
the Order of Turtles, to which most people in NASA and ancillary businesses
belonged. It went like this:

The order of turtles is an organization that is composed of people that
always have pure thoughts. and every member has an imaginary jackass.
and if asked if you are a turtle, a member must answer is a loud voice
"I bet my ass I am!" if not answered properly, that member must by all
turtles present a drink. to become a turtle a purity test must be passed
with the following questions:

1) Q: What does a man do standing up, a woman do setting down, and a
      dog do on three legs?


   A: Shake Hands


2) Q: What does a woman have two of and a cow four of?



   A: Legs


3) Q: What does a dog do that man steps in?



   A: Pants


When Alan Shepard was on the way to the moon, he ask Chris Craft,
Flight Director, on live TV if he was a turtle. Chris left the air for
10 Seconds, then came back on and announced that his answer was recorded

Walter Cronkite, commented that this was technical talk about the
the LEM. most of the nation (85+%) never understtod what was going on

Reminds me of a joke from a Playboy issue a couple of months back:

A guy, on his way to tennis courts, meets a girl.  He has a tennis ball
in his pocket, and the girl goes, "Gee, what is THAT!", really startled.
 So he answers, "oh, it's just a tennis ball."  And she says, "Oh, I
know what it feels like.  I had tennis elbow."

Here's another:

A Vatican priest and a Rabbi are having lunch at the Rabbi's home.  The 
Rabbi shows him around the house and eventually comes to a room with a red 
telephone in it.  "What's the phone for?" asks the priest.  "Well," answers 
the Rabbi, "that's my hotline to God."  The priest gets very excited and 
asks if he can use it.  Of course, the Rabbi agrees.  The priest talk to 
God for five minutes and then hangs up the phone.  The Rabbi says, "Oh, I'm 
sorry, I forgot to tell you that it would cost $10,000.00 to talk to God."  
The priests answers, "No problem," and writes a check to the Rabbi for 
$10,000.00.  "You really should visit me at the Vatican," says the priest 
as he leaves....

A few weeks later the Rabbi comes to the Vatican to have lunch with the 
priest.  The priest gives him a tour of the Vatican and eventually comes to 
a room with a red phone in it.  "What is THAT?" asks the Rabbi.  "Well," 
answers the priest, "that's MY hot line to God."  The Rabbi asks to use it 
and of course the priest agrees.  The Rabbi talks for 5 minutes and then 
hangs up.  "How much do I owe you?" he asks the priest.

"Oh," answers the priest, "it's only a quarter.  It's a local call from 
here..."

Maybe the following: [picked it up somewhere :-)]

Mac user wanting to reset his Mac. 'Hello, EG&G?  Yes, My Mac has gone
down again, could you please shut down the power grid for the greater 
Los Angeles Basin for a few minutes so that I can re-boot?'

It seems Apple have decided to camouflage the on/off button. :-)
