Every time a new pope is elected, there are a lot of rituals and
ceremonies that have to be gone through, in accordance with tradition. Well,
there's one tradition that very few people know about.Shortly after the new pope is enthroned, the chief rabbi seeks an
audience. He is shown into the pope's presence, whereupon he presents him
with a silver tray bearing a velvet cushion. On top of the cushion is an
ancient, shriveled parchment envelope.
The pope symbolically stretches out his arm in a gesture of rejection.
The chief rabbi then retires, taking the envelope with him and does not
return until the next pope is elected. John Paul II was intrigued by this
ritual, whose origins were unknown to him. He instructed the best scholars
of the Vatican to research it, but they came up with nothing. When the time
came and the chief rabbi was shown into his presence, he faithfully enacted
the ritual rejection but, as the chief rabbi turned to leave, he called him
back.
"My brother," the pope whispered, "I must confess that we Catholics are
ignorant of the meaning of this ritual enacted for centuries between us and
you, the representative of the Jewish people. I have to ask you, what is it
all about?"
The chief rabbi shrugs and replies: "But we have no more idea than you
do. The origin of the ceremony is lost in the traditions of ancient
history."
The pope said: "Let us retire to my private chambers and enjoy a glass of
wine together, then, with your agreement, we shall open the envelope and
discover at last the secret."
The chief rabbi agreed. Fortified in their resolve by the wine, they
gingerly pried open the curling parchment envelope and with trembling
fingers, the chief rabbi reached inside and extracted a folded sheet of
similarly ancient paper. As the pope peered over his shoulder, he slowly
opened it.
They both gasped with shock.
It was the check for the last supper.

The night before her wedding, the bride-to-be talked with her mother.
"Mom," she said, "I want you to teach me how to make my new husband happy."
The mother took a deep breath and began,
"When two people love, honor, and respect each other, love can be a very
beautiful thing..."
"I know how to fuck, mother," the bride-to-be interrupted.
"I want you to teach me how to make lasagna."

Once upon a time, there was a very wealthy, but very shy, and very
lonely, young man, who lived in the country. It so happened that a bridle
path went through his back yard. One day, a beautiful young girl rode her
horse along the bridle path and through his yard. He fell in love with her
on sight, but was too shy to follow her.
The next day, at the same
time, the girl rode past again. Again, the young man was too shy to pursue
her. This went on for weeks, and the young man fell ever more deeply in love
with her, and his frustration grew, and he cursed his shyness. He decided he
must do something; but what? It came to him in a flash; he would paint his
horse green, and tie it up by the bridle path; surely the girl would notice
this and ask him about it, and he could speak to her! That morning, he
painted his horse green, tied it up by the bridle path where the girl was
sure to see it, and waited anxiously.
Sure enough, she rode past;
when she saw the horse, she stopped, and, eyes wide, said, "Oh! You have a
green horse!"
The young man said,
"Yeah, wanna fuck?"

After dying in a car crash, three friends find themselves at an
orientation to enter heaven. Each one was asked, "When you are in your
casket, what would you like to hear your friends and family saying about
you?"
Sean says, "I would like to hear them say I was a great doctor and a
great family man."
Karl says, "I would like to hear them say I was a wonderful husband and
an excellent teacher who made a difference in children's lives."
Juan says, "I would like to hear them say, 'Look! He's moving!'"

There was a boss who was told by his boss that he had to get rid of at
least one employee. So he narrowed the decision to one of two new employees,
Jack or Mary. He then decided to speak to each one privately, and let their
reactions help guide his decision. So he called in Jack, explained the
situation and, of course, Jack said he didn't want to lose his job, but he
understood the boss's situation.
Then he called in Mary, and said, 'Mary, I've got a problem;
By the end of the day, I've got to lay you or Jack off...'"
And Mary says, "Then you're going to have to jack off, buster, I've got a
headache!"

Two Jewish businessmen meet in a restaurant for a lunch suggested by one
of them. The inviter says, "I have a good deal for you. When I was in
Florida, I went to the town where the circus stays during the winter. I
happened to pick up an elephant. I could let you have it for three thousand
dollars."
The other businessman sipped his martini and said, "What am I going to do
with an elephant? I live in a condo. I barely have room for my furniture. I
can't even squeeze in an end table. So I'm going to buy an elephant?"
The first businessman said, "I could let you have three of them for two
grand."
"Oh," said the other, "now you're talking!"

An extremely drunk man looking for a whorehouse stumbles into a
Podiatrist's office instead and weaves over to the receptionist.
Without looking up, she waves him over to the examination bed and says,
"Stick it through that curtain."
Looking forward to something kinky, the drunk pulls out his penis and
sticks it through the crack in the curtains.
"That's not a foot!" screams the receptionist.
"Holy shit, lady. I never knew you had a minimum!"
After school one day Todd, an eager second-grader, came up to his mother
and asked, "Mom, what's a pussy?"
Somewhat startled by the question, but directing her answer away from the
adult definition, the mother replied, "Son, sometimes people say the word
pussy, for short, when they really mean pussycat. You know like Boots, the
cat that lives next door. Boots could be called a pussy or better yet,
pussycat."
That didn't compute with what Todd heard on the playground that day, but
he continued, "Mom, what about a bitch? What is a bitch?"
She pursued her puritanical theme by answering, "Todd, an adult female
dog is commonly referred to as a bitch. But Son, where did you hear such
words?"
"From the fourth-graders on the playground, Mom," he replied.
"I think you should play with your second-grade friends and stay away
from those fourth-graders," the mother stated.
Later, Todd found his dad working in the garage. He went up to his dad
and asked, "Dad, what's a pussy?"
The dad contemplated how he should answer this delicate question. Then
resolving that an honest question deserves and honest answer, he reached up
on the top shelf of his tool bench and took down a copy of the Playboy
magazine. He pulled out the centerfold and laid it on the workbench. With a
felt-tip pen the dad drew a very tight circle around the vulva of the nude
playmate-of-the- month.
Pointing to the centerfold and looking his son square in the eye, the dad
said, "Todd, Son, everything inside that little circle is called a pussy!"
"WOW," said Todd as his eyes bugged at the small circle. Now that made
more sense about what he heard on the playground that day.
"Dad, what's a bitch" Todd asked?
"Well, Son, a bitch is everything outside that circle."
