In 1986 an Harrison was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Northwestern University.

 

On a hike through t bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air.

 

The elephant seemed distressed, so Dan approached it very carefully.

 

He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it.

 

As carefully and as gently as he could, Dan worked the wood out with his hunting knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot.

 

The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments.

 

Dan stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled.

 

Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away.

 

Dan never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.

 

Twenty years later, Dan was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his teenage son.

 

As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Dan and his son Dan Junior were standing.

 

The large bull elephant stared at Dan, lifted its front foot off the ground, and then put it down.

 

The elephant did that several times, then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.

 

Remembering the encounter in 1986, Dan couldn't help wondering if this was the same elephant.

 

Dan summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing and made his way into the enclosure.

 

He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder.

 

The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Dan's legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly.

 

Probably wasn't the same elephant.

A man walks into a fish and chip shop with a fish under his arm.

 

"Do you have any fish cakes? he asks.

 

"Yes, of course," says the fish shop owner.

 

"Great," replies the man, nodding at the fish under his arm, "It's his birthday."

An English Literature professor noticed one of his students sleeping during the lecture and threw a copy of The Canterbury Tales at him.

 

"What was that?" said the student.

 

"Oh, nothing," replied the professor. "Just a flying Chaucer."

CAT DIARY

 

Day 983 of my captivity. My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape.

 

In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet.

 

Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a 'good little hunter' I am.

 

Bastards! There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of 'allergies.' I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.

 

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet a he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow—but at the top of the stairs.

 

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches.

 

The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released—and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded.

 

The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now..........

http://www.JumboJoke.com/wants_to_know_1631.html

 

 

This is an actual inquiry sent to the Montrose (Colorado) Enterprise newspaper -- and published there on June 5, 1906:

Wants to Know

 

Kind and respected sir: I see in the paper that a man named John Sipes was attacked and ate up by a bear whose cubs he was trying to get ... in the mountains near your town. What I want to know is did it kill him or was he only partly ate up. I think he is a distant husband of mine. My first husband was of that name but I thought he was killed in the war. I have been married twice since. If it is him, you will know by his six toes on the left foot. He also has a spread eagle tattooed on his front chest and an anchor on his right arm. If alive don't tell him I'm married to Joe White because he never liked Joe. Maybe you'd better act as if I'm dead, but find out all you can about him and please answer back.

 

P.S. Was the bear killed? Also was he married again and did he leave any property with me laying claims to?

Re: Jokes

 

Bill and Hillary Clinton, when they first reached the White House, set a new standard of the politically active spouse.

 

It was almost like they were "co-presidents". So much so that the two of them were known by one name: "Billary".

 

Now that Hillary is running to get back into the Oval Office, the roles would be reversed. In the unlikely event that she makes it, and Hillary would have "top billing", their presidential name would have to be reversed too.

 

Yep: they'd be Hillbilly.
