Joke....

[Stephen]

A guy goes into the store and asks the clerk, "I'd like some Polish sausage."

The clerk looks at him and says, "Are you Polish?"

The guy, clearly offended, says, "Well, yes I am. But let me ask you: if I had asked for Italian sausage would you ask me if I was Italian? Or if I had asked for German sausage, would you ask me if I was German? Or if I had asked for a taco would you ask if I was Mexican? Huh? Would ya??"

The clerk says "Well, no..."

With deep self righteous indignation, the guy says, "Well, alright then, why the HELL did you ask me if I'm Polish just because I ask for Polish sausage?"

The clerk says "Because this is a hardware store."

My Wife Is Deaf

A concerned husband went to a doctor to talk about his wife.  He says to the doctor, " Doctor, I think my wife is deaf because she never hears me the first time and I always have to repeat things".  " Well", the doctor replied, "Go home and tonight stand about 15 feet from her and say something to her.  If she doesn't reply move about 5 feet close and say it again.  Keep doing this so that we'll get an idea about the severity of her deafness".

Sure enough, the husband goes home and does exactly as instructed.  He starts off about 15 feet from his wife in the kitchen as she is chopping some vegetables and says, " Honey, whats for dinner?". He hears no response.  He moves about 5 feet closer and asks again. No reply. He moves 5 feet closer.  Still no reply.  He gets fed up and moves right behind her, about an inch away and asks again, "Honey, whats for dinner?"  She replies, " For the fourth time, VEGETABLE STEW". ;o)

That was a pretty good one.

But the funniest part to me is that I haven't heard a polish joke in years.  Yes I think it is common place around the world to make fun of other countries and ethnicities.  I know the Dutch traditionally made fun of the Belgians for example.  But I am afraid political correctness has done a lot of damage to our national sense of humor.  I wonder how many people under the age of 25 would even understand the polish punchline connection.
I don't know  what do you think.

PS  I personaly like polish Kielbasa  ha ha ha.

Speaking of kielbasa, I just defrosted one.  Keilbasa so much resemble hagfish (yuck!).  Well at least kielbasa tastes good.  It is especially a good compliment to put in a pot of baked beans, as I tried that once, when there was a family get-together, and my assignment was to bring baked beans.

Kevin,
 Your family likes to live dangerously asking you to bring beans.   My family tries to keep myself and beans of any sort seperated by at least 100 feet!

ROTFL!

Well Steve, I guess if you have to include beans in the menu, you might as well have the Expert bring them...
