McCain and Obama in the barbershop
John McCain and Barack Obama somehow ended up at the same barber shop.
As they sat there, each being worked on by a different barber, not a
word was spoken.
The barbers were both afraid to start a conversation, for fear it would
turn to politics. As the barbers finished their shaves, the one who had
Barack in his chair reached for the after shave.
Obama was quick to stop him saying, " No thanks, my wife Michelle will
smell that and think I've been in a whorehouse".
The second barber turned to John and said "how about you?"
McCain replied "Go ahead, my wife Cindy doesn't know what the inside of
a whorehouse smells like."

The woman's three other children, a 13-month-old girl and 10- and 14-year-old boys, were also in the vehicle. Greenfield Deputy Inspector Bradley Wentlandt says they've been turned over to the Bureau of Milwaukee Child Welfare.

EAST ST. LOUIS --
Police say a 19-year-old employee of a State Street grocery store was working at more than stocking shelves.
The suspect, whose identity was being withheld by police Wednesday pending charges, worked as a stocker at Schnucks, 2511 State St., police said.

"The officer was not in uniform and the suspect didn't recognize him as a policeman," Detective Sgt. Jerry Simon said.
The astonished officer exchanged his phone number with the suspect, left the store, then reported the incident to the police department, Simon said.

The officer, whose identity also is being withheld, set up a drug buy from the suspect Tuesday afternoon.
"They scheduled a meeting time," Simon said. "On his break, the suspect came out of the store, got into the undercover policeman's car and sold him some crack cocaine and ecstasy."
Other officers, who were in a waiting position on the store's parking lot moved in and arrested the suspect at 7:30 p.m. The suspect is an East St. Louis resident, and had worked at the store for about nine months, Simon said.
Simon said management at the store "was very cooperative."
"They do not condone this kind of activity at their store," [color=brown][They don't?][/color] Simon said.
The suspect was being held Wednesday at the East St. Louis Police Department pending charges. - rosco

The Day the Penis asked for a Raise
The request
I, the Penis, hereby request a raise in salary for the following reasons:
I do physical labor.
I work at great depths.
I plunge headfirst into everything I do.
I do not get weekends or public holidays off.
I work in a damp environment.
I work in a dark workplace that has poor ventilation.
I work in high temperatures.
My work exposes me to contagious diseases.
Sincerely,
P. Niss
The Response:
Dear Penis:
After assessing your request, and considering the arguments you have raised, the administration rejects your request for the following reasons:
You do not work 8 hours straight.
You fall asleep after brief work periods.
You do not always follow the orders of the management team.
You do not stay in your designated area and are often seen visiting other locations.
You do not take initiative - you need to be pressured and stimulated in order to start working.
You leave the workplace rather messy at the end of your shift.
You don't always observe necessary safety regulations, such as wearing the correct protective clothing.
You will retire well before you are 65.
You are unable to work double shifts.
You sometimes leave your designated work area before you have completed assigned task.
And if that were not all, you have been seen constantly entering and exiting the workplace carrying two suspicious-looking bags.
Sincerely,
V. Gina
Mr. John: as the attorney for Mr. P. Niss let's be honest, Mr P. Niss is only in this job for himself. He provides no benefit to V. Gina except to plant seeds.
In light of that, Mr. Niss has agreed to allowing his assistant, Mr. Ton-gue to take on the most important task of giving V. Gina assistance in the area of gratification enhancement.
Please review the attached addendum to his employment agreement which allows Mr Ton-gue to get involved on a regular bases from now on.
I see no reason for V. Gina to take further action against Mr. Niss.
Rednecks know how to get-R-dun
'Hello, is this the Sheriff's Office?'
'Yes. What can I do for you?'
'I'm calling to report 'bout my neighbor Virgil Smith....He's hidin' marijuana inside his firewood! Don't quite know how he gets it inside them logs, but he's hidin' it there.'
'Thank you very much for the call, sir.'
The next day, the Sheriff's Deputies descend on Virgil's house. They search the shed where the f irewood is kept. Using axes, they bust open every piece of wood, but find no marijuana. They sneer at Virgil and leave.
Shortly, the phone rings at Virgil's house.
'Hey, Virgil! This here's Floyd....Did the Sheriff come?'
'Yeah!'
'Did they chop your firewood?'
'Yep!'
'Happy Birthday, buddy!'
