  1. I nearly had a heart attack reading your post! Please confirm that "whining" is NOT a TYPO? ????
  2. You misread the title! It is the list for Shortest, not longest books! Boris does however get an entry into the shortest list with his book entitled. "My truthful political answers"
  3. His wife thinks he's the salt of the earth. That's why she keeps him in the cellar.
  4. Animal Cunning A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her poodle along for company. One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long, discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a hungry-looking leopard heading rapidly in his direction. The poodle thinks, "Oh, oh!" Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap, the poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?" Hearing this, the leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!", says the leopard, "That was close! That poodle nearly had me!" Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the poodle sees him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard. The leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back so you can watch me chew that poodle to bits!" Now, the poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?", but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and waits until they get just close enough to hear. "Where's that damn monkey?" the poodle says, "I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"
  5. Ronnie Barker: And we had hoped to have been bringing you Arthur the Human Chameleon, but this afternoon, he crawled across a tartan rug and died of exhaustion. But first, the news: The House of Commons was sealed off today after police chased an escaped lunatic through the front door during Prime Minister's question time. A spokesman at Scotland Yard said it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
  6. Psychiatrist: What seems to be the problem? Patient: I think I'm a chicken. Psychiatrist: How long as this been going on? Patient: Ever since I came out of my shell.
  7. Moral Of The Story A horse and a chicken are playing in a meadow. The horse falls into a mud hole and is sinking. He calls to the chicken to go and get the farmer to help pull him out to safety. The chicken runs to the farm but the farmer can't be found. So he drives the farmer's BMW back to the mud hole and ties some rope around the bumper. He then throws the other end of the rope to his friend, the horse, and drives the car forward saving him from sinking! A few days later, the chicken and horse were playing in the meadow again and the chicken fell into the mud hole. The chicken yelled to the horse to go and get some help from the farmer. The horse said, "I think I can stand over the hole!" So he stretched over the width of the hole and said, "Grab for my penis and pull yourself up." And the chicken did and pulled himself to safety. Moral of the Story: If you're hung like a horse, you don't need a BMW to pick up chicks.
  8. And just why do you want those drones and guns? Since drones did not exist when the 2nd amendment was implemented (1791) are you trying to say you have a right to own and use them either weaponised or not?

  10. What has the depth of the units got to do with Bluetooth? was my question! It was not about how to repair or replace defective components! Neither you or I know what the backup/replacement philosophy is and is not germane to my question!
  11. What has the depth of the submersible got to do with two devices less than 10ft apart connecting via Bluetooth?
  12. FROM THE TWO RONNIES: RB: I say, Humphrey. RC: What is it, Godfrey? RB: See that tall chap over there? RC: Well-dressed, sprightly sort of bloke? RB: That’s him. Five years ago he was destitute — in rags. All due to drink. RC: Damned curse, drink is. Fancy another? RB: No, thanks. Luckily, he met one of those temperance chappies, who told him just to have a look at where his money was going to — the rich publicans, smartly dressed, with sports cars and places in the country, while he, the drunkard, was penniless. All due to man’s insa- tiable desire for alcohol. RC: And that put him on the right road, eh? RB: Absolutely. RC: Gave up drink completely? RB: No, he borrowed some money and bought a pub!
  13. A secretary is going on her lunch break when she notices her clueless boss standing in front of a shredder. The secretary walks up and asks if he needs help. “Yes, please!” says the boss. “This is a one off and very important document, the only one in circulation. I just don't want too many people seeing it.” “Glad to help,” says the secretary as she turns on the shredder and inserts the paper. “Gee, thanks,” says the boss. “When will it be ready I only need the one copy.”

  15. A woman takes a baby to the doctor’s office. “Baby seems to be ill,” she says. “Instead of gaining weight, he lost three ounces this week.” The doctor examines the baby, then says to the woman, “Is he breast-fed, or on the bottle?” “Breast-fed,” she replies. “Let’s take a look,” says the doctor. “Strip down to your waist.” She does so and the doctor squeezes both breasts, massages them and pinches both nipples. Eventually he says, “No wonder this baby is hungry, you don’t have any milk.” “Of course I don’t,” says the woman. “I’m his aunt. His Mum is at work!”
  16. A woman dents her sports car and goes to a garage to get some help. The mechanic decides to have some fun with her and tells her to take the car home and blow up the exhaust – the air pressure will make the dent spring out. She takes the car home and spends a good hour blowing up the exhaust without any success. Eventually her Blonde flatmate comes home and asks what she’s doing. She tells her what the mechanic told her to do and she says, “You idiot. That’s never going to work. You’ve left the windows open.”
  17. A defendant is in front of a judge on a speeding charge. “I understand you were doing 60 in a30 mile per hour zone,” says the judge. “That’s a lie,” replies the defendant. “I wasn’t doing 30. I wasn’t even doing 10 in fact…” “Hold it,” says the judge. “I’m going to fine you $50 before you back into something.”
  18. An Irishman reports for a university exam that consists of yes/no questions. He takes his seat in the exam room, opens the test paper, and starts tossing a coin. If he tosses heads, he marks an answer “yes,” if it’s tails he marks it “no.” He finishes the test quickly and spends the time left re-reading the paper, tossing the coin, and occasionally swearing under his breath. The moderator goes over to see what’s the matter. “It’s okay,” says the Irishman. “I finished the exam half an hour ago. Now I’m checking and correcting my answers.”
  19. Bitcoin (BTC) Transaction, Deposit & Withdrawal Fees (coinmarketfees.com) So it only receives!!!
  20. Wrong! I believe it fits the definition well! A Ponzi scheme is a form of fraud that lures investors and pays profits to earlier investors with funds from more recent investors.
