Jokes

Just read an old joke about Dr Watson and Sherlock Holmes going camping. 
They pitch their tent under the stars and go to sleep. 
In the middle of the night, Holmes wakes up Watson, and says look up at the stars and tell me what you deduce, 
Watson ponders the view for a minute or two, then says I see millions of stars he replies, even if only a few of them have planets, and even if only a few of those planets are like earth there must be life out there, that's what I deduce, 
Holmes looks at him aghast and says Watson you fool someone stole our tent. 


A man in a small town married 20 different women, all are still alive, he never divorced any of them, and he broke no laws, how did he do it, he was a vicar. 

Should a man be allowed to marry his widows sister, no he would be dead.


A mother and father take their 6 year old son to a nudist beach, as the boy walks along the sand, he notices that many of the women have boobs bigger than his mum's, so he goes back to ask her why that is, she tells her son the bigger they are the the sillier the lady is, the boy pleased with the answer goes to play in the ocean, but returns to tell his mother that many of the men have larger cocks than his dad's, she smiles and says the bigger they are the dumber the man is, again satisfied with her answer the boy goes back to the ocean to play, shortly thereafter the boy returns again and promptly tells his mother, daddy is talking to the silliest lady on the beach, and the longer he talks the dumber he gets.

That one abot Watson and Holmes is one of my all-time favorite anecdotes... A few years ago, I found its ancestor in the Babylonian Talmud, written well over 1,500 years ago. Go figure.
