I call BS ... and will admit that neither my husband, nor I could pull the third answer out of our arses. We knew it when we heard it ... but couldn''t come up with it on the spot.

Call me a dummie if you want, but I''ll admit I only knew because I saw him on TV yesterday discussing the financial crisis and how it''s hurting Europe.

 

[luckystar112]

lol Deco. The only reason why I knew number three is because I had a teacher in high school named Gordon Brown!

 

[miraclesrule]

Yeah, I would have flunked...but I want to get at least 1/2 point for knowing that answer number three wasn''t Blair. I just didn''t know the name his successor.

Seriously, I got it, but only because my husband and I just watched the Daily Show/ John Stewart interview with Tony Blair and they talked about Gordon Brown. Althought I the first Gordon that came to mind was Gordan Libby. LOL.

The whole poll is invalid. The Brits cheat. After so many years of Tony Blair, they had no right to switch to someone else. Especially someone with a name that's easy to forget.

(I told this joke at the dinner table with a group of associates the night I met Drena - she married me 10 years later and quickly redid the beige kitchen)

That wasn''t too bad, Garry. Actually, I had heard a variant of that years ago. I went looking for it on the ''net. This joke was as close as I could come!


WHAT WOMEN THINK DURING SEX

At 17: Hope I don''t get pregnant!

At 30 : I wish this time he''ll buy me those diamond earrings I want!

At 50 : We have to paint the ceiling


Deb

 

[Garry H (Cut Nut)]

and your 30.......Right!

 

[Garry H (Cut Nut)]

Back on topic - I got it all right - wow! An alien!!!

And i quizzed several friends here down under and they got it right too - but then to qualify as a friend you must either be smart, or need diamond earrings

 

[luckystar112]

lol!

Doesn''t look like Valeria appreciated the joke, though!

 

[Garry H (Cut Nut)]

I just put off 2 good people - it is time for some more good quality jokes please.

My wonderful PA just asked what about 60 (she is a couple of weeks away)
