POTATOES

 

An old man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his potato garden but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only son Fred, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.

 

Dear Fred,

I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over I know you would dig the plot for me.

Love,

Dad

 

A few days later he received a letter from his son.

 

Dear Dad,

For heaven's sake, don't dig up that garden! That's where I buried the BODIES!

Love,

Fred

 

At 4am the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.

 

Dear Dad,

Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances.

Love,

Fred

Four guys are playing golf, and the group in front of them is incredibly slow. Always looking for a lost ball, taking forever to putt, and there are two holes empty in front of them.

One of the gys whips out his cell phone and calls the clubhouse, and asks that a ranger be sent out to hustle the slow group along. The ranger shows up and listens to the complaints. He then explains that the "slow"group consists of blind men, any they only play occasionally, and the complainers should cut them some slack.

 

The first guy in the group, a priest, says, "We should be more caring, I will say a prayer for those poor blind fellows."

 

The second guy, a rabbi, says. "Father I will join you in that prayer, we must be compassionate to the handicapped"

 

The third guy, an eye doctor, says, " give me their names and I will see them for free, and maybe I can cure their blindness."

 

The fourth guy, an engineer, says "Can't they play at night?"

Ha.

 

 

Engineers rule :]

 

 

 

Nice to see you on here Ce!

Yes! :lol: I've seen a similar Engineer joke before!

Here's the version I like:

from Locost UK

 

"Understanding Engineers - Take One

 

Two engineering students crossing the campus when one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?" The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking along yesterday minding my own business when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike. She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want." The first engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice; the clothes probably wouldn't have fit."

 

Understanding Engineers - Take Two

 

To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

 

Understanding Engineers - Take Three

 

A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such ineptitude!" The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greens keeper. Let's have a word with him." "Hi George! Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?" The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The group was silent for a moment. The pastor said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them." The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"

 

Understanding Engineers - Take Four

 

What is the difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers? Mechanical Engineers build weapons and Civil Engineers build targets."
