jejejejejejejejejeje---Only in Baja
Alice and Frank are bungee-jumping one day. Alice says to Frank, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping service in
Baja."
Frank thinks this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy everything they'll need: a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc.
They travel to Ensenada and begin to set up on the square. As they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more and more
people gather to watch them at work. When the work is finished, there's such a crowd, Alice and Frank decide it would be a good idea to give a
demonstration.
So, Alice jumps. She bounces at the end of the cord, but when she comes back up, Frank notices that she has a few cuts and scratches. Unfortunately,
Frank isn't able to catch her, and she falls again, bounces and comes back up again. This time, she is bruised and bleeding.
Again, Frank misses her. Alice falls and bounces back up. This time she comes back pretty messed up. She's got a couple of broken bones and is
almost unconscious.
Luckily, Frank finally catches her and says, "What happened? Was the cord too long?"
Barely able to speak, Alice gasps, "No, the Bungee cord was fine. ... It was the crowd. .. What the hell is a pi?ata?"

So sorry!
But you know, it makes me feel better because I thought I was getting addicted to this site. To find I missed something this funny means I still have
hope.

I think if you break your neck, it comes at your own risk no matter where you are. Money aside of course.

Well, as long as this is a joke thread...
(Roberto would probably caution you not to encourage me like this.)
An old guy, who's almost blind,decides to buy his wife something sexy for their anniversary. So, he goes to Victoria's Secret and asks for their
finest, sheerest, most transparent "Teddy". It costs him $500. He bites the bullet and has it gift wrapped.
At home, he presents it to his wife. Delighted with his (unusual) thoughtfulness, she retires to the bedroom to try it on. Unfortunately it is not
quite the right size and doesn't fit. She reasons she can exchange it later, but she doesn't want to dissapoint him on such an important occasion.
Remembering that he really doesn't see very well and the Teddy is very very sheer, she leaves it on the bed and emerges from the bedroom buck naked.
"How do you like it?", she asks.
"Damn", he replys, " as much as I paid for it, you'd think they'd at least have ironed it."
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.
