ALOHA FRIDAY

December 16

It's Aloha Friday.

LAUGH A LITTLE

Aloha folks. I'm short on time this week and heading out of town with it. So instead of a scholarly thesis, here's a little Aloha Friday Humor.

First up, a little religious humor.

A couple of nuns who were nursing sisters had gone out to the country to minister to an outpatient. On the way back they were a few miles from home when they ran out of gas. They were standing beside their car on the shoulder when a truck approached.

Seeing ladies of the cloth in distress, the driver stopped to offer his help. The nuns explained they needed some gas.

The driver of the truck said he would gladly drain some from his tank, but he didn't have a bucket or a can.

One of the nuns dug out a clean bedpan out of their nursing equipment and asked the driver if he could use it. He said yes, and proceeded to drain a couple of quarts of gas into the pan. He waved goodbye to the nuns and left.

The nuns were carefully pouring the precious fluid into their gas tank when the highway patrol came by.

The trooper stopped and watched for a while, then he said: "Sisters, I don't think it will work, but I sure do admire your faith!"

Second, some asylum humor...

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director

"How do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized?"
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a
teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor,  "a normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
"No, said the Director, a normal person would pull the plug.  Do you want a bed near the window?"

Finally for the Hana Hou... (Encore)

It was a small town and the patrolman was making his evening rounds.

As he was checking a used car lot, he came upon  two little old ladies sitting in a used  car.

He stopped to ask them why they were sitting there in the car.  Were they trying to steal it?

"Heavens no, we bought  it."

"Then why don't you drive it away."

"We can't drive."

"Then why did you buy it?"

"We were told that if we bought a car here we'd get screwed ...so we're just waiting."

Okay folks, see you next week.
