'Twas The Night--Politically Correct

'Twas the night before Christmas and Santa's a wreck...

How to live in a world that's politically correct?

His workers no longer would answer to "Elves."

"Vertically Challenged" they were calling themselves.

And labor conditions at the North Pole

Were alleged by the union to stifle the soul.

 

Four reindeer had vanished, without much propriety,

Released to the wilds by the Humane Society.

And equal employment had made it quite clear

That Santa had better not use just reindeer.

So Dancer and Donner, Comet and Cupid,

Were replaced with four pigs, and you know that looked stupid!

 

The runners had been removed from his sleigh;

The ruts were termed dangerous by the E.P.A.

And people had started to call for the cops

When they heard roof noises up on their roof-tops.

Smoke from his pipe had his workers quite frightened.

His fur-trimmed red suit was called "Unenlightened."

 

And to show you the strangeness of life's ebbs and flows,

Rudolf would sue o'er the use of his nose

And had gone on Geraldo, in front of the nation,

Asking millions of dollars in due compensation.

 

So, half of the reindeer were gone; and his wife,

Who suddenly said she'd had enough of this life,

Joined a self-helping group, and left in a whiz,

Demanding from now on her title was Ms.

 

And as for the gifts, he'd ne'er had a notion

That making a choice could cause such commotion.

Nothing of leather, nothing of fur,

Which meant nothing for him. And nothing for her.

Nothing that might be construed to pollute.

Nothing to aim and nothing to shoot.

Nothing that clamored or made lots of noise.

Nothing for just girls, or just for the boys.

Nothing that claimed to be gender specific.

Nothing that's warlike and so, non-pacific.

 

No candy or sweets...they were bad for the tooth.

Nothing that seemed to embellish a truth.

And fairy tales too, while not yet forbidden,

Were like Ken and Barbie...(just better off hidden.)

For they raised the hackles of those psychological

Who said the only good gift was one ecological.

 

No baseball, not football...someone could get hurt;

Besides, playing sports exposed kids to the dirt.

Dolls were too sexist, and should be passe;

And Nintendo, 'twas found, rots your brain cells away.

 

So Santa just stood there, disheveled, perplexed;

He just couldn't figure out what to do next.

He tried to be merry, tried to be gay,

(But you've got to be careful with that word today.)

His sack was quite empty, lay limp on the ground;

No suitable gift for this year could be found.

 

Something special was needed, a gift that he might

Give to all without angering the left or the right.

A gift that would satisfy, with no indecision,

Each group of people and every religion;

Every ethnicity, each color and hue,

Everyone, everywhere...even to you.

 

So here is that gift, it's price beyond worth...

"May you and your loved ones enjoy peace here on earth,

And share lots of Wilcox music

To increase the worth."

Thanks to Dave L.

Q. What does Bill say to Hillary after having sex?

A: "Honey, I'll be home in 20 minutes."

 

Q. Bill and Hillary are on a sinking boat. Who gets saved?

A. The nation.

 

Bill and Hillary are at a restaurant. The waiter tells them tonight's specials are chicken almondine and fresh fish. "The chicken sounds good; I'll have that," Hillary says. The waiter nods. "And the vegetable?" he asks. "Oh, he'll have the fish," Hillary replies.

Bill and Hillary are at the first baseball game of the season. The umpire walks up to the VIP section and says something. Suddenly Clinton grabs Hillary by the collar and throws her over the wall onto the field. The stunned umpired shouts, "No, Mr. President! I said, 'Throw the first PITCH!'"

President Clinton looks up from his desk in the Oval Office to see one of his aides nervously approach him. "What is it?" exclaims the President. "Its this Abortion Bill Mr. President, what do you want to do about it?" the aide replies. "Just go ahead and pay it." responds the President.

A TRUE CANADIAN

A man had tickets to Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final right at center ice. As he sits down, a man comes down and asks if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him.

"No," he says. The seat is empty.

"This is incredible", said the man. "Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for the Stanley Cup and not use it?"

He says, "Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first Stanley Cup we haven't been to together since we got married in 1947."

"Oh ... I'm sorry to hear that. That's terrible. But couldn't you find someone else a friend or relative, or even a neighbour to take the seat?"

The man shakes his head, "No. They're all at the funeral."

A blonde a brunnette and a red head all tried out for the same job as road stripers. The boss told them they would all work for three days and whoever painted the most would get the job.

At the end of the first day the red head had painted 3 miles the bruenette had painted 2.5 miles and the blonde had painted 10 miles.

The boss was so exited he told her to keep it up and the job was hers.

The next day the red head painted 5 miles and the bruenette 5.6 miles and the blonde 4 miles he told her not to worry you still have a good lead.

So, on the third day the red hed had painted 6 miles the bruenette 5 miles and the blond only one mile.

The boss was so disappointed, he asked the blonde, "What went wrong, you were doing so good".

She said, "Well, that bucket of paint keeps getting further and further away".

I can't remember who sent me this one.... sorry.

During a recent publicity outing, Hillary Clinton sneaked off to visit a fortune teller of some local repute. In a dark and hazy room, peering into a crystal ball, the mystic delivered grave news.

"There's no easy way to say this, so I'll just be blunt: Prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year."

Visibly shaken, Hillary stared at the woman's lined face, then at the single flickering candle, then down at her hands. She took a few deep breaths to compose herself. She simply had to know. She met the fortune teller's gaze, steadied her voice, and asked her question.

"Will I be acquitted?"

An 80 year old man was having his annual checkup and the doctor asked him how he was feeling.

"I've never been better!" he boasted. "I've got an eighteen year old bride who's pregnant and having my child! What do you think about that?"

The doctor considered this for a moment, then said, "Let me tell you a story. I knew a guy who was an avid hunter.  He never missed a season. But one day went out in a bit of a hurry and he accidentally grabbed his umbrella instead of his rifle."

The doctor continued, "So he was in the woods and suddenly a grizzly bear appeared in front of him! He raised up his umbrella, pointed it at the bear and squeezed the handle. And do you know what happened?" the doctor queried.

Dumbfounded, the old man replied "No."

The doctor continued, "The bear dropped dead in front of him!"

"That's impossible!" exclaimed the old man. "Someone else must have shot that bear."

"That's kind of what I'm getting at..." replied the doctor.

"So be it!",and disappears back into the bottle.

Next morning, Carlos wakes up with Lorena Bobbitt, Tonya Harding and Hillary Clinton. His penis is gone, his leg is broken, and he has no health insurance.

Thoughts for the season:

A bus station is where a bus stops.

A train station is where a train stops.

On my desk, I have a workstation...

If Fed Ex and UPS were to merge, would they call it Fed UP?

I believe five out of four people have trouble with fractions.

If quitters never win, and winners never quit, what fool came up with "Quit while you're ahead"?

Do Lipton employees take coffee breaks?

What hair color do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans.

I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older then it dawned on me...they were cramming for their finals.

Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do...write to them? Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen could look for them while they delivered the mail?

Never agree to plastic surgery if the doctor's office is full of portraits by Picasso.

VENI, VEDI, VISA: I came, I saw, I did a little shopping.

If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the OTHERS here for?

STRESSED spelled backwards is DESSERTS.

You never really learn to swear until you learn to drive.

Clones are people two.

If a man says something in the woods and there are no women there, is he still wrong?

Go ahead and take risks...just be sure that everything will turn out OK..

No one ever says "It's only a game" when their team is winning.

As I said before, I never repeat myself!

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

Ever wonder what the speed of lightning would be if it didn't zigzag?

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

Think "honk" if you're telepathic

ALWAYS GIVE 100% AT WORK:

12% Monday

23% Tuesday

40% Wednesday

20% Thursday

5% Friday

Can you yell "MOVIE!" in a crowded firestation?

It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere.

If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy?

To vacillate or not to vacillate, that is the question... ...or is it?

I still miss my ex. But my aim is getting better!

A closed mouth gathers no feet.

If women can have PMS, then men can have ESPN.

When blondes have more fun, do they know it?

- Remember, half the people in the world are below average.
