The Saturday Night Joke


"THE TELEPHONE"

Digging to a depth of 1,000 meters last year, French scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1,000 years.
The French came to the conclusion that their ancestors had a telephone network centuries ago.

Not to be outdone by the French, English scientists dug to a depth of 2,000 meters. Shortly thereafter headlines in the UK newspapers read: "English archaeologists have found traces of a 2,000-year-old fiber-optic cable and have concluded that their ancestors had an advanced high-tech digital communications network a thousand years earlier than the French."

One week later, Israeli newspapers reported the following: "After digging as deep as 5,000 meters in a Jerusalem marketplace, they found absolutely nothing. They thus concluded that 5,000 years ago Jews were using wireless." (H/T My Buddy Ron)

Humor or truth? You be the judge.

I don't see this happening here in Wisconsin with polka bands and open bars at wedding receptions.


A bizarre wedding tradition in China sparked a heated debate online after images of a woman, taped to a telephone pole, circulated on social media.

Netizens were left horrified when a video from the Shanxi province of the Asian country captured several men tying up the bride as part of a game.

A refresher course perhaps?

I would have left my brother alone. Genius Award Winner.

A man who hurled bricks at police officers during disorder in Southport was identified when he was recognised at his brother's court hearing.

Jake Joseph went to Liverpool Crown Court in September to watch his younger sibling, Cory Joseph, being sentenced for his own role in the summer rioting.

However, a Merseyside Police detective spotted him in the public gallery and recognised him from footage of the 30 July violence, which broke out the day after three children were stabbed in the town.

But wait........There is more.


I wonder what their combined IQ is. Genius Award Winners.

Three people in Ohio are accused of faking the suicide of a registered sex offender by claiming to have seen him fall into a lake in a fiasco that tied up resources from multiple law enforcement agencies and required the use of three dive teams in the bogus search.
