The maharajah of an Indian Province issued a royal decree. He ordered that no one was to kill any wild animals while he was the country’s leader. The decree was honored until there were so many Bengal Tigers running loose that the people revolted and threw the maharajah from power.

This is the first known instance of the reign being called on account of the game.

I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card. She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the card was signed. When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature I had just signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared the signature to the one I had just signed on the receipt.

As luck would have it, they matched.

Bubba came visitin’ up north, and decided he wanted to go and do something he could never do in South Alabama, SNOW SKIING.

Unfortunately, before he ever made it UP the hill so’s he could try and come DOWN the hill on ski’s, he was knocked unconscious by the chairlift.

He called his insurance company from the hospital, but they said they were refusing to cover the injury.

“WHAT?!?” yelled Bubba at the phone. “And just why wouldn’t you cover an injury like this?” he complained.

“You got hit in the head by a chairlift,” Bubba’s insurance rep said. “That makes you a moron… and we consider that to be pre-existing condition.”

I come from a stupid family. During the civil war my great uncle fought for the West!

This week, our phones went dead and I had to contact the telephone repair people. They promised to be out between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. When I asked if they could give me a smaller time window, the pleasant gentleman asked, “Would you like us to call you before we come?” I replied that I didn’t see how he would be able to do that since our phones weren’t working. He also requested that we report future outages by email.

(Does YOUR email work without a telephone line?).
