Presidents' Day Funnies!

Presidents' Day Funnies!

A father noticed that his son was spending way too much time playing
computer games.

In an effort to motivate the boy into focusing more attention on his
schoolwork, the father said to his son, "When Abe Lincoln was your age, he
was studying books by the light of the fireplace."

The son replied, "Well, when Lincoln was your age, he was The President of
The United States."

These two country boys, brothers, were knocking around one lazy summer day
and thought it would be a good prank to push over the outhouse.

They crept up from an advantageous direction like a couple of commandos,
pushed the outhouse over on one side and headed for the woods. They
circled round and returned home an hour later from a completely different
direction thus, trying to divert suspicion from themselves.

Upon returning, their father approached them with switch in hand and
bellowed, "Did you two push the outhouse over this afternoon?"

The older boy replied, "As learned in school, I cannot tell a lie. Yes,
Father, we pushed over the outhouse this afternoon."

At this revelation, the farmer proceeded to flail the two boys severely
and sent them to bed without supper.

In the morning, the two boys meekly approached the breakfast table and
took their seats. Everything was quiet until their father finally said,
"Have you two learned your lesson?"

"Sure, Dad!" said the big brother, "But, in school we learned that George
Washington admitted to HIS father that he'd chopped down a cherry tree and
he was forgiven because he told the truth."

"Ah yes!' said the farmer, "BUT, George's DAD, wasn't in the cherry tree
when he chopped it down!"

    It's sort of a shame that Washington and Lincoln no longer get their own days. But then we don't start school with the Lord's Prayer and the Pledge to flag anymore, either.

    I posted a version of the outhouse story around Halloween.

    I think it's a shame that at my place of employment we get Martin Luther King day off but not President's Day. [:(!]

    Imagine the outcry if we changed the name "Martin Luther King Day" to "Civil Rights Leaders' Day". There would be a massive outcry from the liberal community. Instead, they took Lincoln's day and made it "Presidents Day". By doing so they put all Presidents on the same plane of honor with Lincoln including the likes of Klinton. Grrrrr.[:(!]

    Uhhh... yeah. By the way, which one is "White History Month"??

    I keep looking for it on my calenders, and keep not finding it.

    Well, I know that in Britain, Black History Month is in October, not February. Asian-Pacific Heritage Month is in May. Women's History month is in March. Hispanic History Month runs from mid-September to mid-October. And Native American History Month is November. Maybe there'll be something left of the calandar when they finally get around to us white guys.

    There is always one more imbecile than you counted on.

    Hypocrisy is the homage paid by vice to virtue.

    Don't assume malice for what stupidity can explain.
