Aussie Rules Football Grand Final tickets

Hi to all Melbourne Demons supporters, check this out.

Help needed!

A mate of mine won two tickets for the 2021 AFL Grand Final in Perth. They are box seats plus airfares, penthouse accommodation and $1,000 for miscellaneous expenses.

When he won them, his wedding date had not been finalised. Now it turns out that the only date available at the church for their wedding is on AFL Grand Final Day – so he can’t go.

If you’re interested and want to go instead of him, it’s at First Baptist Church at 5pm on Saturday, 30th September. She is a fairly nice looking girl, about 165cms, clean, cute, great body and her name is Kelly. She will be the one in the white dress.

If interested, contact me for more detailed information! Asap.

They quickly descend into the valley and, sure enough, their two Titleist golf balls are right next to each at the bottom of the valley in the middle of the fairway.

Patrick looks at Mick and says, “We had better get a ruling from a tournament official to straighten this out. This is the Irish County Club Championships and we don’t want to be disqualified for making a mistake and hitting the wrong ball. After all, we are tied for the lead.

Soon after, a rules official appears and examines the two #4 Titleist golf balls. He then looks up at Mick and Pat and says, “Which one of you is playing the orange ball?

The green-keeper replied, “Oh, yes. That’s a group of blind firemen. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free any time.

The group fell silent for a moment.

The priest said, “That’s so sad. I’ll say a special prayer for them tonight.”

The doctor said, “Good idea. I’ll contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there’s anything she can do for them.

Checking out at the supermarket, the young cashier suggested to the much older woman that re-usable grocery bags were a good idea as plastic bags weren’t good for the environment.

The woman apologised and explained, “We didn’t have this ‘green thing’ back in my earlier days.

The young cashier responded, “That’s our problem today – your generation didn’t care enough to save our environment for future generations.

She was right that our generation didn’t have the ‘green thing’ back in our day.

Back then, we returned milk bottles, lemonade bottles and beer bottles to the shop. The shop sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilised and re-filled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled.

Grocery shops bagged our groceries in brown paper bags, that we re-used for numerous things.

We walked up stairs, because we didn’t have a lift in every supermarket, shop and office building.

We walked to the local shop and didn’t climb into a 300 horsepower machine every time we had to go half a mile.

Back then, we washed the baby’s nappies because we didn’t have the throwaway kind.

We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine. Wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our day. Kids had hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing.

Back then, we had one radio or TV in the house – not a TV in every room – and the TV had a small screen the size of a big handkerchief (remember them?) not the size of Scotland.

We blended and stirred by hand because we didn’t have electric machines to do everything for us.

When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn’t fire up an engine and burn petrol just to cut the lawn. We pushed the mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn’t need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.

We drank from a tap or fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We re-filled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen. And we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.

Back then, people took the bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their mums into a 24-hour taxi service. We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances and we didn’t need a computerised gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites thousands of miles away in order to find the nearest pub!

But she’s right, we didn’t have the ‘green thing’ back then.

Please forward this on to another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from their younger brethren.

He looked around and saw only a frog sitting on the grass. “I must be going nuts“, he thought, “there’s no one here.

The voice then said, “Please, sir. Please help me.

Again all he saw was the frog which was looking straight at him. “Who said that?” he asked.

I did, sir. I’m the frog. I was a beautiful 19-year-old princess but a witch put a spell on me. Please help me.

The old man picked up the frog and held it in his hand. “How can I help you?“, he asked.

The only thing that will break the spell is to have a man kiss me on the mouth. Please do it for me, and then I will again turn into a beautiful, sexy, princess and I will really make you feel young again. I will make great love to you.

The man closed his hand about the frog and stuffed it into his pocket. “At my age“, he said, “I’d rather have a talking frog.

That’s very nice about your Freddie“, says Gertrude. “But with all due respect, when I think about the way my Sammy takes care of me, it just can’t compare. Every morning, as soon as I wake up, he greets me with bacon and freshly brewed coffee. Every lunch he comes over and cooks me a gourmet lunch, and every supper he brings me to his house for supper. He truly treats me like a queen.

Well“, says Barbara. “I don’t want to make any of you feel bad or anything, but wait until you hear about my Harry.

Politicians are a lot like diapers, they should be changed frequently, and for the same reasons. Keep that in mind the next time you vote.

This is more of an aphorism than a joke, and it is made topical by the upcoming election. It was made famous by Robin Williams in the 2006 film Man of the Year who, it appears, was repeating a phrase that was first uttered by a local American politician in 1992. Contrary to popular belief, Mark Twain never said anything of the sort.

Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better on his computer. They had been going at it for days and God was tired of hearing all of the bickering.

Finally God said, “Cool it. I’m going to set up a test that will run for two hours and I will then judge who does the better job.

So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away. They moused. They did spreadsheets. They wrote reports. They sent faxes. They sent e-mail. They sent out e-mail with attachments. They downloaded. They did some genealogy reports. They made cards. They did every known job. But ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, thunder rolled, the rain poured and, of course, the electricity went off.

Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld. Jesus just sighed. The electricity finally flickered back on and each of them re-started their computers.

Satan started searching frantically, screaming “It’s gone! It’s all gone! I lost everything when the power went out!

Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the past two hours. Satan observed this and became irate.

Wait! He cheated, how did he do it?

God shrugged and said, “Jesus saves.
