The Pope took a couple of days off to visit the mountains of Alaska for some sight-seeing. He was cruising along the campground in the Pope mobile when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the woods.
A helpless Democrat, wearing sandals, shorts, a "Save the Whales" hat and a "To Hell with Bush" T-shirt, was screaming while struggling frantically, thrashing around trying to free himself from the grasp of a 10 foot grizzly.
As the Pope watched horrified, a group of Republican loggers came racing up. One quickly fired a .44 magnum into the bear's chest... The other two reached up and pulled the bleeding, semiconscious Democrat from the bear's grasp.
Then using long clubs, the three loggers finished off the bear and two of them threw it onto the bed of their truck while the other tenderly placed the injured Democrat in the back seat.
As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions!" he told them. "I heard there was a bitter hatred between Republican loggers and Democratic Environmental activists but now I've seen with my own eyes that this is not true."
As the Pope drove off, one of the loggers asked his buddies "Who was that guy?"
"It was the Pope," another replied. "He's in direct contact with heaven and has access to all wisdom." "Well," the logger said, "he may have access to all wisdom but he sure doesn't know anything about bear hunting! By the way , is the bait holding up, or do we need to go back to Massachusetts and snatch another one?
HAH! lol!
It's an oldie. I've seen it before on FR at least thrice.
lol, thanks!
PUN ALERT!
JERRY: I was in the men's room the other day and they had the hand blower, instead of the paper towels, you know this thing. I like the hand blower I have to say. It takes a little bit longer, but I feel when you're in a room with a revolting stench you want to spend as much time as you can.
GSLOB: It's an oldie. I've seen it before on FR at least thrice.
AUDIENCE: Oooooh.
JERRY: Oh, wait a second, I believe we have a heckler ladies and gentlemen. Hey GSLOB, I don't know what your problem is. It's not my fault you're back on the wagon.
GSLOB: It's off the wagon.
JERRY: In the old days how do you think they got the alcohol from town to town?
GSLOB: I don't know.
JERRY: On the wagon. Don't you think they broke into a couple of those bottles along the way?
GSLOB: You can't drink on a wagon it would be too bumpy.
JERRY: They had smooth trails. What about the Cumberland Gap?
GSLOB: What the hell do you know about wagons?
JERRY: I know enough not to get on them.
