Since it's a Wednesday.....


Recommended Posts

During Desert Storm, an American Air Force officer met a Saudi Air Force officer.

Their love of flying bonded them together and soon they became friends. One day, while making small talk, the discussion turned to family. Each expressed how much they missed their wives and children. The Saudi officer decided to pull out his wallet and show pictures of his family to the American.

When the American saw the picture of the Saudi's family, he was shocked. "Hey, that looks like my son," he said, referring to one of the Saudi officer's children. "That looks just like my Juan!"

The Saudi officer explained. "About 15 years ago, I went to Mexico to drill for oil. While I was there, my wife and I decided to adopt a young boy. We named him Amal and he has grown up with us."

The American said, "Well, about 15 years ago, my wife and I were stationed at the American embassy in Mexico City. We adopted Juan and now he is in high school. I wonder if your boy and mine are twins!"

Excitedly, both officers compared the boys’ birthdays, and sure enough, the boys shared the same day. They agreed that the two boys must be twins. Immediately, they vowed that after the war ended they would meet in Los Angeles and have a big reunion to unite the two long lost brothers.

When the news media received word of this, they created a media frenzy as they eagerly promoted the day when the boys would meet. Eventually, the big day arrived and local, national and international news outlets, as well as several hundred onlookers, descended on LAX airport. There was a festive mood in the air, and representatives from the Mexican, U.S., and Saudi Arabian governments attended.

However, to the disappointment of the assembled crowd, a representative from Saudi Arabian Airline announced that the plane had been delayed and would be over six hours late.

Juan's mother took the podium and addressed the crowd saying, "You might as well go home. There's no point in waiting here."

"Why would we want to do that?" asked a reporter.

"Well," she replied, "they're identical twins. If you've seen Juan, you've seen Amal."

A bloke goes to doctors and says “doctor doctor my willy has turned orange.”
The doctor examines thoroughly, does does numerous tests but is still baffled. He then asks all sorts of other questions but still baffled.
The Doctor finally asks “what about your social life?”
The man replies “what do you mean?”
The doctor says “well what do you do in your spare time?”
The man replies “well not much really, most the time I just watch porn and eat Wotsits”....

I was in Budapest a few weeks back during international week and took in the Hungary v Ethiopia match

A couple of minutes after the national anthems the Hungarian faithful started chanting "we are Hungary, we are Hungary"

Two seconds later their Ethiopian counterparts replied with "So are we, so are we"

I was in Germany last week. The women there are really forward. I was sitting in a bar minding my own business, checking Facebook, Twitter etc on my phone and this girl came up to me and asked me what my ringtone was. I told her it was pinky brown, the same as everyone else’s.
