Tag I loved your first joke you posted earlier.......I did have to look up the word. Bloody funny once I knew its meaning

I was sent a couple of dozen, very non-PC jokes. Those two were about the least troublesome.

I really liked this one

Was so depressed last night that I rang the Samaritans.

Got through to a call centre in Pakistan.

Told them I was suicidal, they got all excited and asked if I could fly a plane......

and this one but not many non UK people would understand it.

What's the difference between Harold Shipman and Tony Blair?

Shipman actually did something about NHS waiting lists.

details of the background of the second joke...

clicky (external link)

he killed around 250 people whilst being a GP (doctor) however that number may be much much higher.... this makes him the worlds most successful serial killer...

Tony Blair on the other hand was British pm and i cant find anything he did...

wonder if they've had a DNS attack & haven't been patched...



What ever it was, it was an epic fail.
The call center got over loaded, and they couldn't change the network status message.



So long and thanks for all the flash

I do hope you're joking. It's just a fuggin camera. And that from someone who wants one more than Kate Moss in my bedroom...

*takes note of your wishlist in sig*

:p

Still feel it's betting being a camera gear head than motorhead. At least not quite so much money wasted :confused:
