Anyone seen that hillarious new site

http://ready.gov

where the US government gives advice on how to act when terrorist attacks occur ? Watch the pics they have, a mixture between 'Fight Club' icons (from the plane) and those movies they had in the 50's !
Of course there are lots of jokes about those pics, here is one helluva (forum) site to check:

WARNING! The site contains very explicit pics and readings.... might be a little too much for some of you, so remember that this is the JOKE thread.
Long loading times too, but worth it.

UT, the first link, I've seen before, but always good for a laugh.

For some reason the second link didn't work.

The site appears to have moved. If you just go to
http://home.rochester.rr.com/ebaumswebworld

then you should get forwarded to the site automatically. And I presume you can find Undertaker's page from there. I didn't really look round much...

Incase the forwarding doesn't work either, the site is now,
http://ebaumsworld.com

Enjoy,

My friend sent me this joke today. It's so funny because it's so true:

Bridge To Hawaii

A man was walking along a California beach and stumbled
across an old lamp. He picked it up and rubbed it and
out popped a genie.

The genie said "OK, OK. You released me from the lamp,
blah blah blah. This is the fourth time this month and
I'm getting a little sick of these wishes so you can
forget about three. You only get one wish!" The man
sat and thought about it for a while and said, "I've
always wanted to go to Hawaii but I'm scared to fly
and I get very seasick. Could you build me a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over there to visit?"

The genie laughed and said, "That's impossible. Think
of the logistics of that! How would the supports ever
reach the bottom of the Pacific? Think of how much concrete...how much
steel!! No-think of another wish."

The man said OK and tried to think of a really good
wish. Finally,he said, "I've been married and divorced
four times. My wives always said that I don't care and
that I'm insensitive. So, I wish that I could understand
women....know how they feel inside and what they're
thinking when they give me the silent treatment....know
why they're crying, know what they really want when
they say 'nothing'....know how to make them truly happy...."

The genie said, "You want that bridge two lanes or four?"

IRISH DECLARE WAR ON SADDAM

Saddam Hussein was sitting in his office wondering who to invade next when his telephone rang. "Hallo! Mr. Hussein," a heavily accented voice said. "This is Paddy down in County Cavan, Ireland. I am ringing to inform you that we are officially declaring war on you!"
"Well, Paddy," Saddam replied, "This is indeed important news! Tell me, how big is your army?"
"At this moment in time," said Paddy after a moment's calculation, "there is myself, my cousin Sean, my next door neighbour Gerry, and the entire dominoes team from the pub-that makes 8!"
Saddam sighed. "I must tell you Paddy that I have 1 million men in my army waiting to move on my command."
"Begorra!", said Paddy, "I'll have to ring you back!"


Sure enough, the next day Paddy rang back. "Right Mr.Hussein, the war is still on! We have managed to acquire some equipment!" "And what equipment would that be, Paddy?" Saddam asked. "Well, we have 2 combine harvesters, a bulldozer and Murphy's tractor from the farm."
Once more Saddam sighed. "I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 16 thousand tanks, 14 thousand armored personnel carriers, and my army has increased to1 and a half million since we last spoke."
"Really?!" said Paddy "I'll have to ring you back!"


Paddy rang again the next day. "Right Mr. Hussein, the war is
still on! We have managed to get ourselves airborne! We've modified Ted's ultralight with a couple of rifles in the cockpit and the bridge team has joined us as well!"
Saddam was silent for a minute, then sighed. "I must tell you Paddy that I have 10 thousand bombers, 20 thousand MiG 19 attack planes, my military complex is surrounded by laser-guidedsurface-to-air missile sites, and since we last spoke, my army has increased to 2 million."
"Faith and begorra!", said Paddy, "I'll have to ring you back." Sure enough, Paddy called again the next day. "Right Mr.Hussein, I am sorry to tell you that we have had to call off the war."
"I'm sorry to hear that" said Saddam. "Why the sudden change of heart?"
"Well," said Paddy "We've all had a chat, and there's no way we can feed 2 million prisoners."

Four Irishmen were bragging about how smart their dogs were. The first man was an engineer, the second man was an accountant, the third man was a chemist, and the fourth was a civil servant.

To show off, the engineer called to his dog: "T-square, do your stuff". T-square trotted over to a desk, took out some paper and a pen and promptly drew a circle, a square, and a triangle. Everyone agreed that was pretty smart.

But the accountant said his dog could do better. He called his dog and said "Spreadsheet, do your stuff". Spreadsheet went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies each. Everyone agreed that was good.

But the chemist said his dog could do better. He called his dog and said: "Measure, do your stuff". Measure got up, walked over to the fridge, took out a quart of milk, got a 10 ounce glass from the cupboard and poured exactly 8 ounces without spilling a drop. Everyone agreed that was clever.

Then the three men turned to the civil servant and said, "What can your dog do?" The civil servant called to his dog and said: "Coffee Break, do your stuff". Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, shat on the paper, shagged the other three dogs and claimed he injured his back while doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions, put in for Workers Compensation and went home for the rest of the day on sick leave.

Essential additions for the workplace vocabulary for 2003:

BLAMESTORMING: Sitting around in a group, discussing why a deadline was missed or a project failed, and who was responsible.

SEAGULL MANAGER: A manager who flies in, makes a lot of noise, craps on everything, and then leaves.

ASSMOSIS: The process by which some people seem to absorb success and advancement by kissing up to the boss rather than working hard.

SALMON DAY: The experience of spending an entire day swimming upstream only to get screwed and die in the end.

CUBE FARM: An office filled with cubicles.

PRAIRIE DOGGING: When someone yells or drops something loudly in a cube farm, and people's heads pop up over the walls to see what's going on.

MOUSE POTATO: The on-line, wired generation's answer to the couch potato.
