Guest guest Posted December 28, 2001 Report Share Posted December 28, 2001 HERE ARE YOUR JOKES OF THE DAY!!! ENJOY!! One Liner! Men are from earth. Women are from earth. Deal with it. Accident The cowboy was trying to buy an insurance policy. The insurance agent was going down the list of standard questions. 'Ever had an accident?' 'Nope, nary a one.' 'None? You've never had any accidents?' 'Nope. Ain't never had one. Never.' 'That's hard to believe. No accidents at all?' 'Well, rattler bit me one time.' 'Wouldn't you consider that an accident?' 'Nope!. The varmint bit me on purpose!' Phone Problems Phone Won't Stop Ringing? Here's What You Do. A young woman from Ribrock, Tenn., had a serious telephone problem. But unlike most people she did something about it. The brand-new $10 million Ribrock Plaza Motel opened nearby and had acquired almost the same telephone number as hers. From the moment the motel opened, the young woman was besieged by calls not for her. Since she had the same phone number for years, she felt that she had a case to persuade the motel management to change its number. Naturally, the management refused claiming that it could not change its stationery. The phone company was not helpful, either. A number was a number, and just because a customer was getting someone else's calls 24 hours a day didn't make it responsible. After her pleas fell on deaf ears, the young woman decided to take matters into her own hands. At 9 o'clock the phone rang. Someone from Memphis was calling the motel and asked for a room for the following Tuesday. The young woman said, "No problem. How many nights?" A few hours later Dallas checked in. A secretary wanted a suite with two bedrooms for a week. Emboldened, the woman said the Presidential Suite on the 10th floor was available for $600 a night. The secretary said that she would take it and asked if the hotel wanted a deposit. "No, that won't be necessary," she said. "We trust you." The next day was a busy one. In the morning, she booked an electric appliance manufacturers' convention for Memorial Day weekend, a college prom and a reunion of the 82nd Airborne veterans from World War II. She turned on her answering machine during lunchtime so that she could watch her favorite soap opera, but her biggest challenge came in the afternoon when a mother called to book the ballroom for her daughter's wedding in June. She assured the woman that it would be no problem and asked if she would be providing the flowers or did she want the hotel to take care of it. The mother said that she would prefer the hotel to handle the floral arrangements. Then the question of valet parking came up. Once again she was helpful. "There's no charge for valet parking, but we always recommend that the client tips the drivers." Within a few months, the Ribrock Plaza Motel was a disaster area. People kept showing up for weddings, bar mitzvahs, and Sweet Sixteen parties and were all told there were no such events. She had her final revenge when she read in the local paper that the motel might go bankrupt. Her phone rang, and an executive from Marriott said, "We're prepared to offer you $200,000 for the motel." She replied. "We'll take it, but only if you change the telephone number." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
