It's Christmas Time !

Well, you must have known it was coming. No, not Christmas, that's too easy. Nope, it's the infamous Photoshop gang, ready willing and able to take any sweet picture of Santa and make it funny. Don't worry though, Santa has a way of dealing with obstacles and it won't stop him from making it to your house on Christmas Eve.

As for me, the holidays are upon us and every week some group's celebrating something and that means a possible party. Talk about Christmas spirits, in the next few weeks there'll be many ho-ho-hos overheard as the office parties and nightclubs get down to the business of celebrating.

So, it's time to get down to my roaming and partying weight and see what kinds of things I can find to amuse myself. In the interim, today's Hump Day and there's a good chance I'll go exploring in AREA 51 for happy hour.

On Friday, I'll be changing my playlist to my Christmas and holiday songs. If anyone has a special request or addition to the holiday playlist, please let me know in your comments and I'll be happy to add it (assuming I can find it).

Additionally, I will debut my new video recording of The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire). If anyone would like a copy of this song or any other of my recordings, please email me at JimSulliv3@aol.com and I'll be happy to send it to you. All of my songs can also be seen and downloaded on my Facebook site.

The AREA 51 Retirement Home Bar and Grill: One day a teacher had a taste test with her students. She picked a little boy to do the first test. She blindfolded him, put a Hershey kiss in his mouth and asked, "Do you know what it is? The little boy said, "No, I don't." The teacher said, "Okay, I'll give you a clue. It's the thing your daddy wants from your Mom before he goes to work." Suddenly, a little girl at the back of the room yelled, "Spit it out! It's a piece of ass!"

The 6th grade science teacher asked her class, "Which human body part increases to 10 times its size when stimulated?" No one answered until little Mary stood up, angry, and said, "You should not be asking 6th graders a question like that! I'm going to tell my parents, and they will go and tell the principal, who will then fire you!"

The teacher ignored her and asked the question again, "Which body part increases to 10 times its size when stimulated?" Little Mary's mouth fell open; then she said to those around her, "Boy, is she gonna get in big trouble!" The teacher continued to ignore her and said to the class, "Anybody?"

Finally, Billy stood up, looked around nervously and said, "The body part that increases 10 times its size when stimulated is the pupil of the eye." The teacher said, "Very good, Billy." The teacher then turned to Mary and continued. "As for you, young lady, I have three things to say. Number 1: You have a dirty mind; Number 2: You didn't read your homework; and Number 3: One day you are going to be very, very disappointed."

The Hits Just Keep On Coming: A group of elementary school children, accompanied by two female teachers, went on a field trip to Aqueduct race track to see and learn about thoroughbred horses. When it was time to take the children to the toilet, it was decided that the girls would go with one teacher and the boys would go with the other.

The teacher assigned to the boys was waiting outside the men's toilet when one of the boys came out and told her that none of them could reach the urinal. Having no choice, she went inside, helped the boys with their pants, and began hoisting the boys up, one by one, holding their willies to direct the flow away from their clothes.

As she lifted one, she couldn't help but notice that he was unusually well endowed. Trying not to show that she was staring, the teacher said, "You must be in the fifth grade" He replied, "No, ma'am, I'm riding Silver Arrow in the second race."

It was the last day of school, and all the students were bringing presents for their teacher. A florist's daughter came up and gave her teacher a box. The teacher said, "I'll bet these are flowers!" The girl replied, "How did you know?" The teacher said, "Just a lucky guess."

Next, a boy whose family owned a candy store came up and gave the teacher a box. She said that she knew it was candy. When the boy asked how she knew, she again said, "Just a lucky guess."

Finally, a boy whose father owned a liquor store came up and gave the teacher a box, but one of the box's corners was damp from a leak. The teacher asked the boy if it was wine. The boy said, "No." She touched the leak and put it to her tongue and asked if it was champagne. The boy again said no.

Finally, she gave up and asked him what was in the box. He said happily,"A puppy!"

At the urinal, an accountant, a lawyer and a cowboy were standing side-by-side using the urinal. The accountant finished, zipped up and started washing and literally scrubbing his hands...clear up to his elbows....he used about 20 paper towels before he finished. He turned to the other two men and commented, "I graduated from the University of Michigan and they taught us to be clean."

The lawyer finished, zipped up and quickly wet the tips of his fingers, grabbed one paper towel and commented, "I graduated from the University of California and they taught us to be environmentally conscious."

The cowboy zipped up and as he was walking out the door said, "I graduated from the University of Texas and they taught us not to piss on our hands."

That's it for today my little buttercups. Remember, a bachelor is a selfish, undeserving guy who has cheated some woman out of a divorce. It's Wednesday and Happy Hour looms. I'm going to AREA 51. More on Friday.
