After having dug to a depth of 20 meters last
year, English scientists found traces of copper
wire dating back over 200 years and came to
the conclusion that their ancestors already had
a telephone network 200 years ago. Amazing.
Not to be outdone by the English, in the weeks
that followed, American
scientists dug to a depth of 30 meters, and
shortly after, headlines in the
newspapers read: American archaeologists have
found traces of 300 year old copper wire and
have concluded that their ancestors already
had an advanced high-tech communications

12. network a hundred years earlier than the
English. Truly stupendous.
One week later, 'The Trinidad Guardian' a
Trinidad newspaper, reported the
following: 'After digging as deep as 40 meters
at Carenage,
Arnold Brathwaite, a self taught archaeologist,
reported that he found absolutely nothing.
Arnold therefore came to the very logical
conclusion that 400 years ago Trinidad had
already gone wireless. Now dis is wot we dus
be talkin bout.
Let dem damn Limeys and Yankees put dat in
dey smoke and pipe it. We over good.

13. Rasta dies..good one lol
Rasta dies and goes to Heaven.He is at the Pearly
Gates and is met by St. Peter himself.
But the gates are closed as Ras approaches the
gatekeeper..
St. Peter said, 'Well, You seem to be in the wrong
place as I don't seem to have you on my list, but as
there is such a crowd behind you and it would cause
such a disruption I will give you an
entrance examination if you pass it I will let you in
The test is short, but you have to pass it before you
can get into Heaven.
' fair enought sais the dread
I sure hope that the test ain't too
hard. Life was a big enough test as it was .'
know,
St. Peter continued, 'Yes, I
but the test is only three questions. Here they are:
First:
What two days of the week begin with the letter T?
that one is easy. That would be Today and
Tomorrow.'
The Saint's eyes opened wide and he exclaimed, that
is not what I was thinking, but you do have a point,
and I guess I did not specify, so I will give you credit

14. for that answer.
Second:
How many seconds are there in a year?
asked St.. Peter.
How many seconds in a year?
Now that one is harder,' replied ras, 'but I think
about that, and I guess the only answer can be
twelve.'
Astounded, St. Peter said, 'Twelve?
how in Heaven's name could you come up with
twelve
seconds in a year?'
Well it got to be twelve he replied:
January 2nd, February 2nd, March 2nd...
'Hold it,' interrupts St. Peter. 'I see where you are
going with this, and I see your point, though that was
not quite what I had in mind....but I will have
to give you credit for that one, too
Third:
What is God's first name?'
well'Sure,' he replied with a big grin . .
'it's Andy.'
'Andy?' exclaimed an exasperated and frustrated St
Peter.
'Ok, I can understand how you came
up with your answers to my first two questions, but

15. just how in the world
did you come up with the name Andy as the first
name of God?'
'Shucks, that was the easiest one of all,'
Whenever I went to church i would hear them sing
ANDY WALKS WITH ME, ANDY TALKS WITH
ME,
ANDY TELLS ME I AM HIS OWN.'
St. Peter opened the Pearly Gates,
and said: 'Run, man, run!!!'
Wherefor we pray Lord, Give me a sense of humor,
Give me the ability to understand a clean joke,
To get some humor out of life, And
to pass it on to other folks !
