Will and Guy have an old friend called Dave Barker who lives in Portsmouth, Hampshire. In recent years Dave has turned his hand to driving buses.
One Thursday an inebriated man got on Dave's
double-decker bus and sat in the bottom deck
close to Dave. Now, Dave is not meant to allow drunks onto his bus but he had a good heart and let the man stay on.
The man started rambling on and on, so Dave suggested he should sit upstairs. 'The air is
cleaner up there and you'll get a much better view.'
The man agreed, but returned a few minutes later. 'What's
wrong?'
Dave asked. 'Don't
you like it better up there?'
'It's
fine', the drunk said. 'But it's
too dangerous: There's
no driver'.
At the next stop two more drunks got onto a bus. The first, name of Bill, asks 'Will this bus take me to 25th Street?'
The bus driver says, 'No, it won't.'
After a pause, the second man, name of Gerry, inquires, 'What about me?'
Footnote One day, perhaps we will tell the full story of Dave, the asthma attack and the breathalyzer, but for now I leave the details to your imagination.
Dave, our bus
driver friend, tells the story of when he was driving a bus load pensioners to Brighton, on a day trip, when he was tapped on his shoulder by a little old lady. She offered him a handful of peanuts, which he
happily took and ate. After about 20 minutes, she tapped him on his shoulder again and she handed him another handful of peanuts. The old dear repeated this generous gesture several more times. When she is
about to hand him another batch again he decided to ask the little old lady, 'Why don't
you and your friends eat the peanuts yourself?'
.
'We can't
chew them because We've no teeth'
, she answered.
Dave was puzzled and enquired, 'Then why on earth do you buy them?'
'Oh, we just love the chocolate around them', replied the old lady.
One day, Dave, the bus driver, was in his bus when the biggest man he had ever seen got on. The giant looked at the driver and growled, 'Big Eric doesn't
pay'
, and took his seat. Dave was
only a little man and he didn't
really want to argue.
This happened for several days. After a week, Dave was beginning to get a little angry. Everybody else paid, so why not the big man?
So Dave went to
the gym and started a course of body-building. He didn't
want to be frightened of Big Eric any longer.
Eight weeks later the driver had strong muscles and was feeling very fit.
At the usual stop, Big Eric
got on. 'Big Eric doesn't
pay'
, he barked; but this time Dave was prepared for him. He stood up, shaking slightly, and said between clenched teeth, 'Oh, yeah? And why doesn't
Big Eric pay?'
'Because Big Eric
has got a bus pass', the man replied.
Two ropes walk into a bar. The bartender says to the rope, 'Hey! We don't
serve ropes in here.'
So one of the ropes left.
The other rope frayed up his hair and tied himself in a knot.
The bartender
said to the rope, 'Are you a rope?'
and the rope said, 'I'm afraid not'
.
Footnote
Guy had to read the joke three times before I got it.
I'm a frayed knot! The only reason that I persevered is that I trust Will to deliver quality jokes. I guess you get two dopes for the price of one with this funny.
What's the difference between a drunk and an alcoholic? Drunks don't
have to go to all those old meetings.
When two service station
attendants in Chicago, refused to hand over the cash to an intoxicated robber, the man threatened to call the police. They still refused, so the robber called the police and was arrested.
