Hello Thomas and JOHN :-)
THANK YOU
for the very interesting information! John, you live in a wonderful place!
I very much hope you have a nice time here in
Thomas' Showcase!
Dear John, as I know you a person with a good sense of humor I went on to look up something funny about your place! It was very interesting to find and read a few of them even if I was a bit surprised, as usually - for un-known reasons for me - most of the jokes are "dedicated" for the Southerners!?! - and Queensland is much more North?! :-)
Here it is one I found so very funny and the "boy" so clever LOL
A man walked into the produce section of his local supermarket and asked to buy “half” a head of lettuce.
The boy working in that department told
him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was insistent
that the boy ask his manager about the matter.
Walking into the back room, the boy said to his manager, ‘Some a***hole wants to buy a half a head of lettuce.’
As he finished his sentence, he turned to find the man standing
right behind him, so he added, ‘and this gentleman kindly offered to
buy the other half’.
The manager approved the deal and the man went on his way. Later
the manager found the boy and said ‘I was impressed with the way you
got yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on
their feet here. Where are you from, son?’
‘Queensland, sir,’ the boy replied.
‘Well, why did you leave Queensland,’ the manager asked.
The boy said, ‘Sir, there’s nothing but whores and rugby league players up there.’
‘Really!’ said the manager. ‘My wife is from Queensland!’
The boy replied, “No shit??? Who did she play for?’”
With friendship,
Anamaria
