THREE LITTLE PIGS
Three Little Pigs went out to dinner one night.
The waiter comes and takes their drink order
"I would like a Sprite," said the first little piggy.
"I would like a Coke," said the second little piggy.
"I want water, lots and lots of water," said the third little
piggy.
The drinks are bought out and the waiter takes their orders for dinner.
"I want a nice big steak," said the first piggy.
"I would like the salad plate," said the second piggy.
"I want water, lots and lots of water," said the third little
piggy.
The meals were brought out and a while later the waiter approached the
table and asked if the piggies would like any desert.
"I want a banana split," said the first piggy.
"I want a root beer float," said the second piggy.
"I want water, lots and lots of water," said the third little
piggy.
"Pardon me for asking, but I've just got to know" said the
waiter, "Why have you only ordered water tonight?"
You're gonna hate me for this ...
Hold on to your seat ...
The third piggy says ---
"Well, SOMEBODY has to go 'Wee, wee, wee, all the way home!'"
EVER WONDER
Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?
Why women cannot put on mascara with their mouth closed?
Why you never see the headline "Psychic wins lottery?
Why "abbreviated" is such a long word?
Why doctors call what they do "practice"?
Why you have to click on "start" to stop Windows 98?
Why lemon juice is made with artificial flavour, while dishwashing liquid
is made with real lemons?
Why the man who invests your money is a broker?
Why there isn't mouse flavoured cat food?
Who tastes dog food when it has a "new and improved" flavour?
Why Noah didn't swat those two mosquitoes?
Why they don't make the whole plane out of the material used for indestructible
black box?
Why sheep don't shrink when it rains?
Why they are called apartments when they are stuck together?
