His and Her Diaries

Knowing that humor has powerful medicinal powers, I'm hoping that this helps (the pain of being a Giants fan) even if only a little...

His and Her Diaries

HER DIARY

Tonight I thought he was acting weird.  We had made plans to meet at a bar to have a drink.  I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment.

Conversation wasn't flowing so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk.  He agreed but he kept quiet and absent.  I asked him what was wrong; he said nothing.  I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset.  He said it had nothing to do with me and not to worry.  On the way home I told him that I loved him, he simply smiled and kept driving.  I can't explain his behavior; I don't know why he didn't say, "I love you too."

When we got home I felt as if I had lost him, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore.  He just sat there and watched T.V.  He seemed distant and absent.  Finally, I decided to go to bed.  About 10 minutes later he came to bed, and to my surprise he responded to my caress and we made lo ve, but I still felt that he was distracted and his thoughts were somewhere else.  He fell asleep - I cried.

I don't know what to do.  I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else.  My life is a disaster.

HIS DIARY

Today the Giants lost, but at least I got laid.

Since stereotypical jokes about how vapid and useless women are don't amuse me, I shall share an excellent joke forwarded to me at work today:

Two 90 year old men, Moe and Joe, have been friends all of their lives.

When it's clear that Joe is dying, Moe visits him every day. One day Moe says, "Joe, we both loved baseball all our lives, and we played minor league ball together for so many years. Please do me one favor, when you get to Heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's baseball up there."

Joe looks up at Moe from his death bed, "Moe, you've been my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favor for you."

Shortly after that, Joe passes on.

At midnight a couple of nights later, Moe is awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to him, " Moe--Moe."

"Who is it?" asks Moe sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?"

"Moe--it's me, Joe."

"You're not Joe. Joe just died."

"I'm telling you, it's me, Joe," insists the voice.

"Joe! Where are you?"

"In heaven", replies Joe. "I have some really good news and a little bad news."

"Tell me the good news first," says Moe.

"The good news," Joe says," is that there's baseball in heaven. Better yet, all of our old buddies who died before us are here, too. Better than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always springtime and it never rains or snows. And best of all, we can play baseball all we want, and we never get tired."

"That's fantastic," says Moe. "It's beyond my wildest dreams! So what could possibly be the bad news?"

"You're pitching Tuesday."

I also enjoy jokes that stereotype men
The husband had just finished reading the book, MAN OF THE HOUSE.

He stormed into the kitchen and walked directly up to his wife.

Pointing a finger in her face, he said, "From now on, I want you to know that I am the man of this house, and my word is law!  I want you to prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I'm finished eating my meal, I expect a sumptuous dessert afterward.

Then, after dinner, you are going to draw me my bath so I can relax.  And when I'm finished with my bath, guess who's going to dress me and comb my hair?"

His wife replied, "The fucking funeral director would be my guess.

There's a joke somewhere in there about Littlefield inquiring about a post mortem pitcher. Or can we just assume Arm Tis Mort in this case?

Re: meh
Yes, yes, I understand it came out just as/before you were born. But I had hoped it's groundbreakingness (?) and brilliance had somehow (word of mouth? internet?) reached your ken.

Just as "All in the Family" revolutionized the situation comedy in 1971, "Hill Street Blues" completely redefined the hour-long drama in 1981. (It's eight Emmy nominations in its first year were surpassed only by "West Wing"). Multiple story lines, extended story arcs, film-style camerawork, gritty realism, honest portrayals of gender, class, and ethnic differences...so many good current shows owe a huge debt to the centerpiece of Grant Tinker's revival of NBC.

I encourage you to rent the DVD's (assuming they exist). Even better, first rent some of the crappy tv dramas of the 1970's, just as a springboard. And keep telling yourself "this is as good as it gets." Then watch "Hill Street."

Okay, preaching over, back to baseball.

MATH JOKE!

Another favorite of mine goes like this, for anybody who thinks math jokes are funny:

The integral of e to the power of x is equal to the function of u to the power of n.

Have fun with that one.

Re: His and Her Diaries
Yeah, it's not really a joke, but when I asked my Pre-Cal teacher in High School if it acually held true, he enthusiastically assured me that it does. So that makes it awesome.

And I'll be damned, but he was right.

My Penguin Contribution
A vacationing penguin is driving through Arizona when he notices that the oil-pressure light is on. He gets out to look and sees oil dripping out of the motor. He drives to the nearest town and stops at the first gas station.

After dropping the car off, the penguin goes for a walk around town. He sees an ice-cream shop and, being a penguin in Arizona, decides that something cold would really hit the spot. He gets a big bowl of vanilla ice cream and sits down to eat. Having no hands, he makes a real mess trying to eat with his little flippers.

After finishing his ice cream, he goes back to the gas station and asks the mechanic if he's found the problem. The mechanic looks up and says, "It looks like you blew a seal."

"No, no," the penguin replies, "it's just ice cream."

Baseball Fan
Some kids are playing baseball at a San Francisco park when one is attacked by a rabid Rottweiler.  Thinking quickly, one boy takes a bat and wedges it down the dog's collar and twists,
breaking the dog's neck.  A reporter who is strolling by sees the incident and rushes over to the boy.  "Giants Fan Saves Friend from Vicious Animal," he starts writing in his notebook.

"But I'm not a Giants fan!" the little hero replied.

"Sorry, since we are in San Francisco, I just assumed you were," said the reporter, and he began writing again.  "A's Fan Rescues Friend from Horrific Attack," he writes.

"I'm not an A's fan either!" the boy exclaimed.

"Oh, I assumed everyone in the Bay Area was either for the Giants or the A's.  What team do you root for?" inquired the reporter.

"I'm a Dodger fan," the child responded.

The reporter turned the page in his notebook and wrote "Little Bastard from LA Kills Beloved Family Pet."

Re: His and Her Diaries
The 3rd grade class assignment was to get up  infront of the class and describe what their father does for a living.  The kids described their fathers' professions; there was a banker, a fireman and a lawyer.

It was Timmy's turn so he got up in front of the class.  "My dad is a stripper at a gay male club.  He gives men lap dances and if they tip him enough, he'll take them into the back alley and have sex with them."  

The teacher was shocked and grabbed Timmy by the arm and took him outside.  "Timmy, is that true what you said about your father?" she asked. "No ma'am." he replied.  "Well then why would you say such a thing?" she wanted to know.  He replied, "I was to ashamed to admit he plays for the Dodgers."
