THE LONG CATEGORY

1st - Tony Crafter with:
I was alone at the bar, just staring at my Scotch when a really huge biker stepped up to me, picked up my drink and downed it in one gulp.

"Well, whatcha gonna do about that?" he said menacingly, as I dissolved into tears.

"Oh, come on, man," the biker said, "Hell, I didn't think you'd cry. I hate to see a man cry."

"This is the worst day of my life," I said. "I'm a complete failure. I was late for work and my boss fired me. When I went to the parking lot, I found that my car had been stolen and I don't have any insurance. I left my wallet behind in the cab home. Then I found my old lady in bed with the delivery man, and, to cap it all, my dog Curtis bit me."

"So I came here to work up the courage to end it all. I bought a drink, dropped a cyanide capsule in and watched the poison dissolve. Then you, you asshole, showed up and drank the lot! But enough about me, how's your day going?"

=

A smart-looking lady went into a pharmacy, walked up to the pharmacist, looked him straight in the eye and said, 'I would like to buy some cyanide'

The pharmacist asked, 'Now, why in the world would you be needing cyanide?'

The woman answered, 'I need it to poison my husband.'

'Lord have mercy!' cried the dumbfounded man. 'You want me to sell you cyanide to kill off your husband? I could never agree to that because it's against the law! I'd be compromised, and I'd lose my license. Then, after that, they'd sling us both in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen. So, I am NOT giving you any cyanide. Absolutely not!'

The woman reached into her bag and took out a picture showing her husband, in bed, making love to the pharmacist's wife.

The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, 'Ah... now, that's different. You didn't tell me you had a prescription."

2nd - Dharam Khalsa with:
Six Irishmen are playing poker in O'Leary's apartment when Paddy Murphy loses five hundred pounds on a single hand, clutches his chest, quivers, and drops dead at the table. Yet, out of respect for their fallen brother, the other five continue playing standing up.

O'Connor asks, "Well me boys, someone's got to tell Paddy's wife. Who will it be?"

They draw straws. Gallagher picks the short one. They tell him to be discreet and try not to make the bad situation any worse.

Gallagher goes over to Murphy's house and raps on the door. Mrs. Murphy answers and asks him what he wants.

He declares, "Your husband just lost five hundred pounds on a single hand, and is afraid to come home."

"Tell him to drop dead!" says Murphy's wife.

Gallagher says, "I'll go tell him."

=

Mary O'Donnell goes up to old Father O'Grady's office after a neighbourhood Sunday morning worship service and knocks on his door. When he answers, she's huddled attempting to hold back emotional tears.

Perplexed, the jolly silver-haired man greets her, "Mary O'Donnell! So, what's troubling ye this fine morning?"

Controlling her choked sobbing, Mary pronounces, "Oh, Father, I've got terrible news. Me cantankerous old husband passed away last night."

The sympathetic priest says, "Good Lord, Mary, that's truly awful news. Tell me, did he have any last requests?"

Thus, the woman says, "That he did, Father. He made a small supplication."

The old priest pursues supportively, "What did he say?"

She responds, "He said, Mary, if ye will please put down that gun....."
