Dave Wallace sent in this picture pun that’s been making the rounds. I’ll admit that I had to think about it the first time I saw it.

A Pun for the Halibut

After a long day of fishing, I was feeling a little frisky, but alas, my wife wasn’t interested. She said “Not tonight, Dear. I’ve got a haddock.”… Read the rest...

I Dream of Jeannie She’s a Light Brown Hare
Dave Wallace sent in this tasty little gem.
In Australia, rabbit was once known as “Depression Mutton”, but now it has become a darling of the cooking shows.
Matthew Evans provides the rabbits for this traditional Greek recipe, wherein the meat is browned then slow-cooked with onion, garlic and spices, resulting in a richly flavoured stew.
Chop each rabbit into 6 large pieces.
Heat the olive oil in deep-sided, heavy-based pot. Add the butter and oregano. Season well … Read the rest...

Dublin my Fortune
I could have sworn we had a version of this ancient shaggy dog, but I couldn’t find it. So the hat tip goes to Mike Franklin’s submission.
One day, in the midst of the Amazon jungle, an explorer called Carstairs found, on a log, a very small, squishy, red creature with lots of legs. Now, Carstairs had never seen anything like this animal before, and so, taking care in case it was poisonous, he carefully put the creature into a … Read the rest...

A Knight to Remember
Another submission from Mike Franklin.
I shall keep this preamble short for I fear that great moments in history should be recalled without recourse to explanation. Relax, dear reader, for the tale I tell is one of mighty deed.
Once, in days of old when knights were bold and rode around the country saving damsels in distress there was a little man. Now I mean little not just small but really really little. He may have been the smallest fully … Read the rest...

Ducktor Who?
This was found by my dear aunt on Facebook. It’s creator is unknown.
A woman brought a very limp duck into a veterinary surgeon. As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird’s chest.
After a moment or two, the vet shook his head and sadly said, “I’m sorry, your duck, Cuddles, has passed away.”
The distressed woman wailed, “Are you sure?” “Yes, I am sure. Your duck is dead,” … Read the rest...

There is a Frog in his Throat
John Sugg submitted this little gem.
I was weed eating my creek bank today when I startled a lime green frog off the bank into the water where it was promptly caught by a snake. I watched as that snake “swallowed that poor boy whole.” The frog emitted a defiant ribbet just as he disappeared down the snake’s gullet. Then it struck what I had just witnessed, a frog croaking.… Read the rest...

The Cow, the Ant, and the Old Fart
This was posted by our rude punster, Myke Cooper.
A cow, an ant and an old fart are debating on who is the greatest of the three of them.
The cow said, “I give 20 quarts of milk every day and that’s why I am the greatest!”
The ant said, “I work day and night, summer and winter, I can carry 52 times my own weight and that’s why I am the greatest!”

Hoof in Mouth Disease
John Sugg submitted the following fragrant pun.
In honor of International Hoof Care Week I would like to bring to light a new farrier/artist name Ed Smith. He developed the art of carving intricate patterns in the tops of horse hooves. He is much talked about in cowboy circles. Around many a campfire you hear exclamations about Hoof Art Ed!… Read the rest...

Why Lessons in Political Correctness May Be Needed for Men
Sensitivity Training For Men
This was forwarded by Lowrie B who actually deleted certain ones.
* I was devastated to find out my wife was having an affair; but, by turning to religion, I was soon able to come to terms with the whole thing. I converted to Islam, and we’re stoning her in the morning!
* Went to our local bar with my girlfriend last night. Locals were shouting “pedophile!” and other names at me, just because my girlfriend … Read the rest...

Shaggy Misdirection
There are several versions of this on the internet. This is (such as it is) one of the most socially acceptable.
It reads: Yesterday afternoon I was going back home with my gf, when I left her arm to take out my phone and then took this photo. She got angry and shouted real bad at me. Didn’t talk to me again that day. But let’s just be honest: how many times do you find a dog driving over the … Read the rest...

AAA Seal of Approval
Dave Wallace pointed out that this old favorite wasn’t in the collection.
A penguin was driving through the desert when her car broke down. She waddled to the nearest phone to call AAA. Her car was quickly towed to the nearest garage where the mechanic told her he would need a couple of hours to check things out. The penguin, being a good natured bird, didn’t complain, and then wandered off to find the closest supermarket. She proceeded to the … Read the rest...

Catching Polar Bears (Redux)
It has been about 16 years since the sequence of jokes and commentaries about catching polar bears was posted on Tarzan’s Tripes Forever (Use the Search function). I liked it then and I still do. Lo and behold, Punster of the Year Bob Dvorak has posted a variant.
Here is Bob’s addition:

When Irish Sighs are Whiling
Dave Wallace submitted this one, saying, “I’ve been telling this for years, don’t know where it came from and can’t believe it’s not in the collection.”
Two Irishmen walk into a pet shop. Right away they go over to the bird section. Gerry says to Paddy, “Dat’s dem”. The clerk comes over and asks if he can help them. “Yeah, we’ll take four of dem dere birds in dat cage op dere,” says Gerry, “Put dem in a peeper bag.” … Read the rest...

A Shaggy Path
This little gem comes from Dave Wallace.
At my house there is a shallow alcove in the back patio which the local outdoor cats use for marking the fact that they passed through in the night. When I let my cats out in the early morning, their first order of business is running to see who sniffs pissing in the bight.… Read the rest...
