Dylan, that reminded me of something from 3rd grade. I don't remember the whole thing, but it starts out...Ladies and Germs, I stand before you to sit behind you to tell you something I know nothing about.
That's all I can remember. 3rd grade was WAY too long ago!

A very rich man was getting sick and knew he was going to die. He decided that he would convert all his cash into gold and figure out a way to take it with him.
When he died, he showed up that the Pearly Gates with a wheel borrow full of his gold. He ws begging and pleading St. Peter to let him in to heaven and still keep his gold. They argued and discussed it for hours. Peter looked at the man's records and saw that he really had been a good steward of his money so he told the man that just this one time, he could take his gold to heaven.
As the man went in, the gate slammed closed behind him. He had just started pushing his gold down the street when Jesus came running up to him. Jesus said "John! it is so great to see you! . . . but, umm . . . why did you bring pavement?"

Trish and Dylan, Sammy Hagar has something like that on one of his newer songs too. It also has something like, "This is a women's meeting for men only..."
A string walks into a bar and the bartender says "we don't serve strings in here, take a hike!"
So he tries the next bar, same response! He was like "what is it w/ this town?"
Then he gets an idea. He goes in to the alley and ties himself into a knot and messes up his hair.
He goes back into the first bar and disguises his voice "pardon me, sir, may I have a refreshing beverage?" The bartender looks him up and down rather perplexed.
"Aren't you that string that was just in here" the bartender says.
<are you ready for this-it's good- so get ready>
the string quite seriously replies, "I'm a frayed knot. (afraid not)"

That is my favorite joke. Hence the only one I ever remember.
a guy starts a new job at a bar ,the regular barkeep says he'll stick around to help as they have an unusual clientel. Soon a guy comes in , smacks the bar and holds up a finger. whats that mean ? says the newbie . oh, says the reg. keep ,.he's a deaf mute and he's telling you he wants a beer , 1 smack = beer. No problem says the newbie. soon another guy comes in and smacks on the bar and holds up 2 fingers. whats that mean ? asks the newbie ? oh , hes a deaf mute too , says the reg. keep , and he's telling you he wants whiskey. 2 smacks = whiskey. No problem says the newbie , i can handle this. For the next few hours everything goes well , smack 1 finger =beer , smack 2 fingers =whiskey. then all of a sudden , smack smack smack smack smack and all the fingers are in the air .What in the heck does that mean? asks the newbie , to which the reg keep replies ; oh , you got em drunk and now there singing !!
A young Pastor right out of seminary gets his first assignment in a small town church. The lead Pastor welcomes him and lets him know that the new guy gets to clean the church attic, as an initiation. The young Pastor is good hearted and digs into the task. When he's finished he goes to the lead Pastor's office to tell him he's done.
"Did you find anything interesting?" asked the older Pastor.
"Well, I did find this really old Bible. It was made by Gitten, Gotten, something like that." replied the young man.
"Guttenburg!" exclaimed the senior, "What did you do with it?"
"Oh, I threw it out." said the junior.
"You threw out a Guttenburg Bible! How could you?"
"Oh, don't worry!" said the young Pastor, "It was all messed up anyways. Some guy named Martin Luther had scribbled all over it."
A new priest was so afraid of delivering his first sermon that he couldn't even speak. So he asked one of his collegues for help. The other priest told his to keep a glass of whiskey up next to his water, and whenever got nervous, to take a sip.
So the priest got through his first sermon, and thought he did well, but he had a note waiting for him with some tips on how he could do better next time:
"First, sip the whiskey, don't gulp.
There are 10 commandments, not 12.
There were 12 disciples, not 10.
David slew Goliath, he did not kick the crap out of him.
We do not refer to our savior, Jesus Christ, and his disciples as, 'The late JC and the boys.'
Next Sunday there is a taffy pulling contest at St. Peter's, not a peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's.
We do not refer to the cross as the 'Big T.'
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost are not, 'Big Daddy, Junior, and the Spook.'
The recommended grace before meals is not, 'Rub a dub dub, thanks for the grub. Yeah God!'
And finally, it's th Virgin Mary, not Mary with a Cherry!
A woman got on a bus holding a baby. The bus driver said, "That's the ugliest baby I've ever seen." In a huff, the woman slammed her fare into the fare box and took an aisle seat near the rear of the bus. The man seated next to her sensed that she was agitated and asked her what was wrong. "The bus driver insulted me." She fumed. The man sympathized and said, "Why, he's a public servant and shouldn't say things to insult passengers." "You're right." She said, "I think I'll go back up there and give him a piece of my mind." "That's a good idea." The man said. "Here, let me hold your monkey."
