An ad that appeared in the Atlanta Journal: Single black female seeks male companionship, ethnicity unimportant. I am a very good looking girl that loves to play! I love long walks in the woods, riding in your pickup truck, hunting, camping, fishing trips, and cozy winter nights by the fire. Candlelight dinners will have me eating out of your hands. I’ll be at the front door when you get home from work, wearing only what nature gave me. Call: xxx-xxx-xxxx ask for Daisy. Over 1,500 men found themselves talking to the Atlanta Humane Society about an 8-week old black labrador retriever.

After a basketball game, the coach found a cell phone on the gym floor. He picked it up and handed it to one of the referees, saying, "Here's your phone."
"What makes you think it's mine?" the ref asked.
"Easy," the coach replied. "It says you missed 13 calls."

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. The structure of the wall was incorrect, so he won ten grand with Claims Direct.
It’s raining, it’s pouring. Of course, it’s global warming.
Jack and Jill went into town to fetch some chips and sweeties. Now he can’t keep his heart rate down and she’s got diabetes.
Georgie Porgy pudding and pie kissed the girls and made them cry. When the boys came out to play, he kissed them too because he was gay.
