Bill Clinton and his driver were cruising along a country road one night when


all of a sudden they hit a pig, killing 1 it instantly. Bill told his driver


to go up to the farmhouse 2 and explain to the owners what had happened.


About 1 hour later Bill sees his driver staggering back to the car with a bottle


of wine in one hand, a cigar in the other and his clothes all ripped and


torn. "What happened to you", asked Bill. "Well, the Farmer gave me the


wine, his wife gave me the Cigar and his 19 year old daughter made mad


passionate 3 love to me." "My God, what did you tell them", asks Clinton. The


driver replies, "I'm Bill Clinton's driver, and I just killed the pig".

A six-year-old girl asks her mother, - "Mommy, how old are you?"
The mother replies, - "Honey, that's a very personal question. You
are not supposed to ask a woman her age."

Then she asks, - " How much do you weigh?"

The mother says, - "Honey, that is also a personal question. People
don't want to be asked about their weight."

The girl goes on, - "Mommy, why did you and daddy get a divorce?"

The mother says, - "That's a very sensitive subject. When you are
older, I'll tell you."

The next day, the girl goes to the kindergarten and tells her friend
about the conversation she had with her mother. Her friend says, -
"That's easy!! Look at her driver's license 4. You can find all the
information in there."

So the girl finds her mother's driver's license in her purse, looks at
it for a while, smiles big, and runs to her mother. - "Mommy, mommy, I
know how old you are! You are 32! I know how much you weigh, too! You
weigh 130 pounds! And I also know why you got a divorce! You got an
"F" in sex! "

A businessman walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer.


He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow


$5,000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for


such a loan. So the businessman hands over the keys to a Rolls Royce parked on


the street in front of the bank. Everything checks out, and the bank agrees to


accept the car as collateral 5 for the loan. An employee drives the Rolls into


the bank's underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks later, the


businessman returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to


$15.41. The loan officer says, "We are very happy to have had your business, and


this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While


you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire.


What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?" The businessman


replied, Where else in New York can I park my car for two weeks for 15 bucks 6?"
