Are You A Good Samaritan?
May 22, 2009 by Susan Denny
A man walks in to a bar and orders a drink. He looks down the bar and sees another very drunk man keep falling off his stool. The man finishes his drink watching the other man try to get back up on the stool.
Feeling sorry for the drunk, the man tries to stand him up, but the drunk keeps falling. The man thinks that this drunk needs to be taken home, so he finds his address in his wallet. On the way to his car, the man had to practically carry the drunk man.
After finally finding his house, the man carries the drunk man to the front door. He rings the doorbell and a lady answers. “Ma’am, your husband is drunk, so I decided to give him a lift home.”
The woman replies, “Thank you sir, but I have one question…Where’s his wheelchair?”

Drinking Alcohol Cuts The Risk of Developing Arthritis By Half, Swedish Research Has Suggested
May 2, 2009 by Susan Denny
Feel like a bit of fun? Read the “spoof” below.
Taking a swig of Finnish vodka, Professor Hurd E Gurdy said: ‘Where is my pen gone? Ya, alcohol cuts the risk of thingy by half, so what? Want to make something of it?’
And another researcher, Anna Abbadabbasson, spilling a test tube of corrosive acid onto the floor, added: ‘Arthri-er, arth, shore fingersh are less likely with a good whack of Schmirnoff every day. Get off me, Hurd!’
In the research laboratory’s restaurant, a huge fist fight broke out after a lager and schnapps party was being held there to celebrate the findings, and paramedics had to treat 3 biologists for cuts and bruises, and one for a fractured jaw. And Professor Gurdy had more news to announce: ‘My liver transplant has been arranged for July, if I haven’t had a heart attack by then.’
Scientists have long known of the benefits of alcohol, such as giving plenty of overtime to policemen, and giving heart, liver and kidney surgeons lots of practice, but arthritis has no cure, and so it’s lucky that eating dandelions or walking backwards could just as easily ‘cut the risk’ of arthritis.
But speaking from America, from his Huge Electricity-Burning House on the Prairie, after parking his Lear jet beside it, Nobel Prize winner Al ‘Alky’ Gore said: ‘I suppose you can take a few simple facts and make them mean anything, sure worked for me.’ Johnny Walker was on holiday in Japan.
