Just a country boy

One day, Jimmy Joe was  walking down Main  Street when he saw his buddy Bubba driving  a brand new pickup.  Bubba  pulled up to him with  a wide grin.
"Bubba,  where'd you get that truck?!?"
"Bobby  Sue gave it to me" Bubba replied.
"She  gave it to you? I  knew she was kinda sweet on ya, but a new  truck?"
"Well, Jimmy Joe, let  me tell you what happened. We were driving  out on County  Road 6, in the middle of nowhere. Bobby Sue pulled off the  road, put  the truck in 4-wheel drive, and headed into  the woods. She  parked the truck, got out, threw off all  her clothes and said, 'Bubba,  take whatever you want'.
So  I took the truck!"
"Bubba, you're a smart man! Them clothes woulda never fit you!"

Word perfect.

A Polish man moved to the USA and married an American girl. Although his English was far from perfect, they got along very well until one day he rushed into a lawyer's office and asked him if he could arrange a divorce for him. The lawyer said that getting a divorce would depend on the circumstances, and asked him the following questions:
Have you any grounds?
Yes, an acre and half and nice little home.
No, I mean what is the foundation of this case?
It made of concrete.
I don't think you understand. Does either of you have a real grudge?
No, we have carport, and not need one.
I mean, what are your relations like?
All my relations still in Poland.
Is there any infidelity in your marriage?
We have hi-fidelity stereo and good DVD player.
Does your wife beat you up? 
No, I always up before her.
Why do you want this divorce? 
She going to kill me.
What makes you think that?
I got proof.
What kind of proof?

Cannibals.

A large corporation recently hired several cannibals.
"You are all part  of our team now," said the HR rep during the welcoming  briefing. "You get all the usual benefits and you can go to the cafeteria for something to eat, but please.. don't eat any of the employees." The cannibals promised they would not.
Four weeks later their boss remarked," You're all working very hard and I'm satisfied with your work. However, one of our secretaries has disappeared. Do any of you know what happened to her?" The cannibals all shook their heads "No".
After the boss had left, the leader of the cannibals said to the others,  "Which one of you idiots ate the secretary?" A hand rose hesitantly.
"You fool!" the leader continued. "For four weeks we've been eating managers and no one noticed anything. But NOOOooo, you had to go and eat someone who actually does something!!!"

The final word

A Greek and Italian were sitting one day discussing who had the superior
culture.
The Greek guy says, "We have the Parthenon."
Arching his eyebrows, the Italian replies, "We have the Coliseum?
The Greek retorts, "We Greeks gave birth to advanced mathematics."
The Italian, nodding agreement, says, "But we built the Roman Empire"..  And  so on and so on until the Greek comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion. With a flourish of finality he says, "We invented sex!"
The Italian thinks for a couple of seconds and replies quietly, "That is true, but it was the Italians who introduced it to women"
