SIR Bidwell Branch 110 Humor

A ventriloquist is performing with his dummy on his lap.
He's telling a dumb-blonde joke when a young platinum-haired beauty jumps to her feet.
"What gives you the right to stereotype blondes that way?" she demands.
"What does hair color have to do with my worth as a human being?"
Flustered, the ventriloquist begins to stammer out an apology.
"You keep out of this!" she yells.
"I'm talking to that little jerk on your knee!"

The ventriloquist Rickie Layne and his dummy, Velvel, were onstage at the Copacabana.
In the front row were some gangsters.
Velvel starts insulting them.
"Hey, it looks like you slept in your clothes," he says.
"Don't you make any money?
Is that the best suit you can buy?"
With each putdown, the mobsters are getting angrier and angrier.
Suddenly, the owner of the nightclub, Jules Podell, a real tough guy, jumps onstage.
He grabs the dummy and punches him so hard, his head rolls off.
Podell then points at Velvel's head lying on the stage and says, "One more joke like that and I'll kill you!"

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, Doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital pool, Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end.
He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.
Edna promptly jumped in to save him.
She swam to the bottom and pulled him out.
When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act she immediately ordered Edna to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered Edna to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Edna the news she said, "Edna I have good news and bad news.
The good news is you're being discharged, since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of the person you love.
I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.
The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him.
I am so sorry, but he's dead."
Edna replied, "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry.
How soon can I go Home?"

Before GPS, a man's boss at a courier company was lost on a rural road.
So he asked a local for directions.
"Go as far as you can see, twice, and there's your turn," said the local.
Confused, but with no better options, the boss fixed his eyes on a spot as far as he could see.
He drove to that spot and made a mental note of the next farthest spot he could see.
Upon arriving at the second spot, dead on was the little unmarked turn he was looking for.

But, reports 9News in Denver, as the officer walked toward the car, he watched the driver switch places with a dog in the passenger seat.
