A bartender is sitting behind the bar on a typical day, when the door
bursts open and in come four exuberant blondes.  They come up to the bar,
order five bottles of champagne and ten glasses, take their order over and
sit down at a large table.  The corks are popped, the glasses are filled
and they begin toasting and chanting,  "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!"   Soon,
three more blondes arrive, take up their drinks and the chanting grows.
"51 days, 51 days, 51 days!"  Two more blondes show up and soon their
voices are joined in raising the roof. "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!"
Finally, the tenth blonde comes in with a picture under her arm.  She walks
over to the table, sets the picture in the middle and the table erupts.  Up
jump the others, they begin dancing around the table, exchanging
high-fives, all the while chanting   "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!"   

The bartender can't contain his curiosity any longer, so he walks over to
the table.  There in the center is a beautifully framed child's puzzle of
the Cookie Monster.  When the frenzy dies down a little bit, the bartender
asks one of the blondes,  "What's all the chanting and celebration about?"
The blonde who brought in the picture pipes in, "Everyone thinks that
blondes are dumb and they make fun of us.  So, we decided to set the record
straight.  Ten of us got together, bought that puzzle and put it together.
The side of the box said 2-4 years, but we put it together in 51 days!"

Two cannibals were walking through the jungle talking when the first
mentioned to the second that he had a belly ache. 
The second cannibal asked, "Well, did you eat anything out of the ordinary
lately?"
 "No," replied the first, "All I've eaten recently was a missionary."
 "Hmm," said the second, "And how did you cook him?"
 "I boiled him as usual," replied the first.
 The second asked, "Was he tall, thin and wearing a black robe with a white
collar?"
 "No" replied the first, "He was short, fat, balding, and wore a brown robe."
 "Ah ha!" exclaimed the second, "There's your problem, you shouldn't have
boiled him.That was a Friar!"
