Ear Hair
-------------------------
This lady found out her dog could hardly hear so she took it to the veterinarian. He found that the problem was hair in its ears. He cleaned both ears and the dog could hear fine. The vet then proceeded to tell the lady that if she wanted to keep this from recurring she should go to the store and get some "Nair" hair remover and rub it in the dog's ears once a month.
The lady goes to the drug store and gets some "Nair" hair remover.
At the register the druggist tells her, "If you're going to use this under your arms don't use deodorant for a few days."
The lady says: "I'm not using it under my arms."
The druggist says: "If you're using it on your legs don't shave for a couple of days."
The lady says: "I'm not using it on my legs either; if you must know, I'm using it on my schnauzer.."
The druggist says: "Stay off your bicycle for at least a week."
Damn cold today!

Not going to be crazy but thinking about turning the central heating on!
Phil? Why can't I read your joke today? Have the censorship police blacked it out?
ReplyDeleteMike, put the heating on, bugger the expense! lol
I thought I'd take this opportunity to bore you all to tears (Even MORE than usual). so here goes....but first a glamour pic to cheer the guys:
Eskimo Beauty Queen 2009
It is often said that eskimos have a large numbers of words for types of snow, like 60 or so. And almost as often somebody will claim that it is an unfounded falsehood. Somebody even wrote a book on that basis. But now some folks have actually done the logical thing and investigated it a bit. And maybe it isn't exactly 60, but it is at least 32. These are from the Inupiat Eskimo Dictionary by Webster and Zibell:
* apun: snow
* apingaut: first snowfall
* aput: spread-out snow
* kanik: frost
* kanigruak: frost on a living surface
* ayak: snow on clothes
* kannik: snowflake
* nutagak: powder snow
* aniu: packed snow
* aniuvak: snowbank
* natigvik: snowdrift
* kimaugruk: snowdrift that blocks something
* perksertok: drifting snow
* akelrorak: newly drifting snow
* mavsa: snowdrift overhead and about to fall
* kaiyuglak: rippled surface of snow
* pukak: sugar snow
* pokaktok: salt-like snow
* miulik: sleet
* massak: snow mixed with water
* auksalak: melting snow
* aniuk: snow for melting into water
* akillukkak: soft snow
* milik: very soft snow
* mitailak: soft snow covering an opening in an ice floe
* sillik: hard, crusty snow
* kiksrukak: glazed snow in a thaw
* mauya: snow that can be broken through
* katiksunik: light snow
* katiksugnik: light snow deep enough for walking
* apuuak: snow patch
* sisuuk: avalanche
NOW DIDN'T YOU ALWAYS WANT TO KNOW THAT???
