The doctor said, "Eddie, the good news is I can cure your headaches. The bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition, which causes your testicles to press on your spine, and the pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles."Eddie was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for.

One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex standing in the foyer of the church staring up at a large plaque. It was covered with names with small American flags mounted on either side of it.
The seven year old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the Pastor walked up, stood beside the little boy, and said quietly, "Good morning, Alex."
"Good morning, Pastor," he replied, still focused on the plaque. "Pastor, what is this?" he asked.
The Pastor said, "Well, son, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service."
Soberly, they just stood together, staring at the large plaque. Finally, little Alex's voice, barely audible and trembling with fear, asked, "Which service, the 9:45 or the 11:15?"

"Well,” said the dad, “I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to do a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall. Since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a blessed little pop-up appeared and said, ‘You've Got Male’."

"Darling, baby, you must tell me what has you so upset. Tell your mother these horrible 4-letter words!" Still sobbing, the bride said, "Oh, Mama..., he used words like: cook, wash, iron & dust..."
A priest and a rabbi are sitting next to each other on an airplane.

The rabbi responds, "Yes, that is still one of our beliefs."
The priest then asks, "Have you ever eaten pork?"
To which the Rabbi replies, "Yes, on one occasion I did succumb to temptation and tasted pork." The priest nodded in understanding and went on with his reading.
A while later, the Rabbi spoke up and asked the priest, "Father, is it still a requirement of your church that you remain celibate?"
The priest replied, "Yes, that is still very much a part of our faith."
The Rabbi then asked him, "Father, have you ever fallen to the temptations of the flesh?" The priest replied, "Yes, Rabbi, on one occasion I was weak and broke with my faith."
The Rabbi nodded understandingly. He was silent for about five minutes, and then he said, "Beats the heck out of a ham sandwich, doesn't it?"

True story:
My grandmother told me about politics.
The word comes from a combination of "Poly", a Greek prefix for "Many".
And "Tics"--little blood-sucking creatures.
It is a funny story, both then and now[ even when I messed up the punch line] It would be wonderful to be able to surf through all 356 pages, with a dial up connection, it would be faster for me to copy them down using a stone hammer and chisel on a granit block!
At any rate here is a nother one for the "More Truth than Poetry Department." Some readers will remember these items and some younger onees will think it is a joke-NOT!
