Saturday Night Jokes and Other Funnies
A trucker walked into a roadside diner and said to the new waitress, "I'll have three flat tires, a pair of headlights and a set of running boards."
The waitress blinked. Once. Twice. Certainly something wasn't right.
She rushed into the kitchen and whispered to the cook, "There is a guy out there trying to order car parts for breakfast!"
The cook laughed. "Relax!
Flat tires are pancakes.
Headlights are eggs.
Running boards are bacon."
Relieved, the waitress put the order together and added a bowl of beans before heading back out to the trucker.
The trucker smiled when he saw the plate but frowned when he saw the bowl of beans. "What are the beans for?"
The waitress smiled proudly and said, "Well, I figured you're getting flat tires, headlights and running boards. While you're here, you might as well gas up too!"

Given the reputation of Key West as a haven for a certain segment of the population, one might think a "Key West Margarita" may have an alternate meaning. The Club does not want to know!
Now, a team of 12 scientists from universities in Germany and the Czech Republic have come together in a unique study that observed 37 breeds of dog over a two-year period.
Exactly 1,893 defecations and 5,582 urinations later, the team reach one incredible finding: "dogs preferred to excrete with the body being aligned along the north-south axis."
Dogs join cattle, roe deer, red deer, hunting red foxes, red foxes, coyotes and grey wolves as yet another mammal to have a mechanism of "magnetoreception."
Although their altered behaviour was only evident under calm conditions, it's still a breakthrough in demonstrating measurable, predictable changes in dog behaviour in response to the earth's magnetic field.
