Found in the email:--------------------------------------------------------This happened a while ago in Belfast. John Bradford, a 20 yr old Queen'sUniversity student, was on the side of the road hitchhiking on a very darknight and in the midst of a storm. No cars were traveling that night. Thestorm was so strong, he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him. Suddenly,he saw a car slowly coming towards him and stop. John, desperate forshelter and without thinking about it, got into the car and closed thedoor...only to realize there was nobody behind the wheel and the enginewasn't on!! The car started moving slowly. John looked at the road aheadand saw a curve approaching. Scared, he started to pray, begging for hislife. Then, just before the car hit the curve, a hand appeared through thewindow and turned the wheel. John, paralyzed with terror, watched as thehand repeatedly came through the window, but never touched or harmed him.Shortly thereafter, John saw the lights of a pub appear down the road. So,gathering strength, he jumped out of the car and ran to the pub. Wet andout of breath, he rushed inside and started telling everybody about thehorrible experience he had just had. A silence enveloped the pub wheneverybody realized he was crying and...wasn't drunk. Suddenly the dooropened and two other people walked in from the stormy night. They, likeJohn, were also soaked and out of breath. Looking around, and seeing JohnBradford sobbing at the bar, one said to the other, 'Look, Paddy. There'sthat freaking idiot that got in the car while we were pushing it.' ------------------------------------------------------Cheers!Rich

For the rightists:

Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Barack Obama were on a ship, which started to sink.

Ried says, "Women and Children first!" Pelosi says, "F*ck the women and children!" Obama says, "Do we have time?"

For the leftists:

John McCain, John Boehner, and Sarah Palin are on a ship. which started to sink.

McCain says, "Women and Children first!" Boehner says, "F*ck the women and children!" Palin says, "Do we have time?"

Or, Pick any three. >;->

How many Mexicans does it take to change a light bulb?

One to change the bulb, and 12,000,000 to collect welfare.

Thanks, Rich
