Best explanation of a politician I've ever heard.

[Charlie Hannah]

While stitching a cut on the hand of a 75 year old farmer, whose hand was caught in the squeeze gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.
Eventually the topic got around to politicians and their role as our leaders.
The old rancher said, "Well, as I see it, most politicians are 'Post Turtles'.''
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a 'post turtle' was.
The old rancher said, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle."

The old farmer saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so he continued to explain.

"You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, he's elevated beyond his ability to function, and you just wonder what kind of dumb **** put him up there to begin with."

You can’t resist British humour!!



Prince Charles decided to take up walking every day. At the same street corner he passed a hooker standing there every day.


He learned to brace himself as he approached her for what was almost certain to follow.
"One hundred and fifty pounds!" she'd shout.



"No! Five pounds!" He said from the side of his mouth, just to shut her up.


This ritual between him and the hooker became a daily occurrence.
She'd yell, "One hundred and fifty pounds!"
He'd yell back, "Five pounds!"



One day, Camilla decided to accompany her husband.



As the couple neared the hooker's corner, Prince Charles realized she'd bark her £150 offer and Camilla would wonder what he'd really been doing on all his past outings.
He figured he'd better have a good explanation for his wife.
As they neared the hooker’s corner he became even more apprehensive than usual.
Sure enough, there she stood. He tried to avoid eye contact as she watched the pair pass.


Then, the hooker yelled:
"See what you get for five pounds, you tight b*****d!"

A woman and her twelve-year-old son were riding in a
taxi in Detroit

It was raining and all the prostitutes were standing under awnings.

"Mom," said the boy, "what are all those women doing?"

"They're waiting for their husbands to get off work," she replied.

The taxi driver turns around and says, "Geez lady, why
don't you tell him the truth?

They're hookers, boy! They have sex with men for money."

The little boy's eyes get wide and he says, "Is that true Mom?"

His mother, glaring hard at the driver, answers in the affirmative.

After a few minutes, the kid asks,
"Mom, if those women have babies, what happens to them?"

"Most of them become taxi drivers," she said.

Sorry to say Ron but thta is far too much to be one of them. Most have a major brain op before they become one, removal of all but the bit which controls the snout.
