"THE BAREFOOT BOY
Blessings on thee, little man,
Barefoot boy, with cheek of tan!
With thy turned-up pantaloons,
And thy merry whistled tunes;
With thy red lip, redder still
Kissed by strawberries on the hill;
With the sunshine on thy face,
Through thy torn brim's jaunty grace;
From my heart I give thee joy, —
I was once a barefoot boy!" --John Greenleaf Whittier

If you want people to get a joke, basing it on obscure poetry, is probably not the best idea!
Fuck, I'm doing Hank's thing now

Ainokea if non-readers no get.
If no get, no get.
If someone takes the time to look it up though.
Then I be smilin'.
Here's one for TV watchers;
At a gathering of religious leaders a Rabbi saw a Catholic priest kicking the shit out of a Druid.
Looks like fun he thought, so he reared back and planted his boot in a Mormon's fat ass.
In the blink of an eye, he got smacked in the side of the head with a crucifix.
Two altar boys were holding him down and the priest was glaring at him.
"Nu, was gibt?" he asked.
And the priest replied,
,
,
"Silly Rabbi, kicks are for Druids".
No reading required.
So, whuddaya think, Hank?

American Conservative religious types are editing the bible to make a conservative bible.
The bible, the will of god, except for all that hippie socialist, love thy neighbour, turn the other cheek, rich man through the eye of a needle, give him your cloak stuff.

Christ on a bike, I thought "The gospel of supply side Jesus" (google it, you will laugh) from Al franken's book was a joke, but these fuckers are writing it, for real.
some of youmay not see the joke, but I sure do.

Maybe they are counting Genesis P.Orridge, of Throbbing Gristle/Psychick TV. Who says his dead wife spirit is now part of him, shes still alive and that they were joined into one person.
Prior to her dying, he got tits, and the had surgery trying to look alike.
Here he is
I don't think the looking alike thing worked
anyway, maybe that's where the odd number comes in
Excuse me Iffy

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
But not until the mighty have finished fucking it up, extracting everything of value, and fucked off to live under a dome on the moon.

Here's a joke that gave me a chuckle...saw it recently on facebook
I've been married 20 years, but I still carry my wife's photo in my wallet.
Whenever I face difficulties in life, I take out my wallet and stare at her picture.
..and it comforts me knowing that if I survived being married to this psycho, then I can survive anything!
