Haven't done anything picture or story worthy on the boat, so I figured I would try to start a "Joke Of The Day" thread.

A missionary who had spent years showing a tribe of natives how to farm and build things to be self-sufficient gets the word that he is to return home. He realizes that the one thing he never taught the natives was how to speak English, so he takes the chief and starts walking in the forest.

He points to a tree and says to the chief, "This is a tree."

The chief looks at the tree and grunts, "Tree."

The missionary is pleased with the response. They walk a little farther and the padre points to a rock and says, "This is a rock."

Hearing this, the chief looks and grunts, "Rock."

The padre is really getting enthusiastic about the results when he hears rustling in the bushes. As he peeks over the top, he sees a couple in the midst of heavy... activity. The padre is really flustered and quickly responds, "Riding a bike."

The chief looks at the couple briefly, pulls out his blow gun and kills them. The padre goes ballistic and yells at the chief that he has spent years teaching the tribe how to be civilized and kind to each other, so how could he just kill these people in cold blood that way?

The chief replied, "My bike."

Later.

So little Timmy was born with only a head.  He did fine, considering his...limitations.  As he grew older, his Mom used to sit him on top of the couch in front of the living room window to watch the kids play outside.

One day, Timmy is a little pissed.  He can't join the kids in their play.  So he prays to God, "God, I wish I had a body."  BAM!!!  He has a body!  Timmy looks down in astonishment!  So, he thinks, why not?  "God, I wish I had arms."  BAM!!  He has arms!  This is so cool, thinks little Timmy.  So, once again, "God, I wish I had legs."  You guessed it, little Timmy had legs.

Little Timmy hops down from the couch, yells to his Mom, "Mom, I'm going out to play!"  Before she can say a word, little Timmy is out the door.  He see's the kid's ball roll out into the street, so he takes off after it...and is hit by a Mack truck, is killed instantly...

Moral of the story?  Quit while your a head...
