A farmer has an old rooster who just wasn’t “pulling his weight with the hens” so to speak. So he buys a young, healthy cock and puts him in the barnyard. The old rooster approaches the younger one and says, “Listen, I know you’re here to replace me. You can probably service the hens much more quickly and efficiently than I can any more. But I have a proposition for you: let’s have a footrace to the other side of the barnyard. The winner will rule the roost. OK?”
“Sure thing, Grandpa,” says the cocky newcomer.
“Just one thing I ask you,” says the older rooster. “I’m old and infirm; you’re in your prime. So give me a ten yard head start, OK?”
“Sounds fair to me,” says the youngster. So they take off toward the far end of the barnyard, the older rooster with the promised head start. The younger cock sped forward, quickly gaining the distance between them, getting closer, closer…
And then BLAM! A shotgun goes off, and the younger rooster disappears in a cloud of feathers and chicken nuggets.
The farmer sets his shotgun down and says to himself, Damn! Third gay rooster I’ve bought this week!
Eromlig and Steve are shipwrecked on a deserted island and decided to pass away the time by playing a guessing game with movie stars. Eromlig started the game off: " I am five foot five, long blond hair, passionate green eyes, a 40 inch bust measurement, 23 inch waist. I am sultry, and very appealing, with large luscious lips. Who am I?" “I don’t care who you are!” said Steve, “kiss me quick!”
In the ’60s, Richmond CA had several oil tanks visible from what is now I-80. In that tank farm, one was painted pink with a red “Hot” label; another was painted pale blue with a dark blue “Cold” label. However, the tanks were petroleum tanks — but the joke was well received.

In a seemingly unrelated note, more “little green aliens” are spotted in the Namib desert on moonlit nights than all other deserts combined.

If your travels take you along I-85 through South Carolina don’t miss the Peachoid water tower by Gaffney.

I googled pictures of the gecko. Boring little pinkish-tan lizard by day, fluorescent like UV paint at night! God’s creation is amazing =)

That’s pretty cool of the city to keep the words on the water tower.
