Best blond joke ever

kevswain — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 09:18:15 +0000

JUST WHEN I THINK I’VE HEARD THE “BEST BLONDE

JOKE” EVER, ALONG COMES ONE LIKE THIS!

A blonde heard that baths in milk would make her beautiful. She left a note for her milkman to leave 25 gallons of milk.

When the milkman read the note, he felt there must be a mistake. He thought she probably meant 2.5 gallons. So he knocked on the door to clarify the point.

The blonde came to the door and the milkman said, “I found your note asking me to leave 25 gallons of milk. Did you mean 2.5 gallons?”

The blonde said, “No, I want 25 gallons. I’m going to fill my bathtub up with milk and take a milk bath so I can look young and beautiful again.”

The milkman asked, “Do you want it pasteurized?”

The blonde said, “No, just up to my tits. I can splash it on my eyes.”

Free whitepaper – The power of collaboration within unified communications

A Georgia man is none too happy that his memory-filled family home, lovingly hand built “brick by brick” by Pop, is now a scene of rubble-strewn desolation after a demolition firm used a GPS to identify its victim and moved in for the kill.

A 72-YEAR-OLD great-grandmother chose the wrong policeman when she dared Deputy Constable Chris Bieze to Taser her.

Kathryn Winkfein made headlines last month after she was stopped by Const Bieze for speeding.

Caught doing nearly 100km/h in a 70km/h zone in Travis County, Texas, Ms Winkfein refused to accept the ticket.

The official police word was Ms Winkfein “mouthed off, then was physically non-compliant”.
