A Monday joke...
 

Dave and Jim were a couple of drinking buddies who worked as Aircraft
mechanics in Sydney.

One day the airport was fogged in and they were stuck in the hangar
with nothing to do.

Dave said, 'Man, I wish we had something to drink!'
Jim says, 'Me too. Y'know, I've heard you can drink jet fuel and get
a buzz. You wanna try it?'

So they pour themselves a couple of glasses of highoctane booze and
get completely smashed.

The next morning Dave wakes up and is surprised at how good he feels.
In fact he feels GREAT! NO hangover! NO bad side effects.

Nothing!
Then the phone rings. It's Jim.
Jim says, 'Hey, how do you feel this morning?'

Dave says, 'I feel great, how about you?'
Jim says, 'I feel great, too. You don't have a hangover?'
Dave says, 'No that jet fuel is great stuff -- no hangover, nothing. We
ought to do this more often.'

'Yeah, well there's just one thing.'
'What's that?'

'Have you farted yet?'
'No.'

'Well, DON'T, ' cause I'm in PERTH!!.

*chuckles quietly*

I think it would have been funnier had I known little to nothing about jet fuel however it was funny none the less.

Funny I guess. So, they are both in Sydney and the jet fuel fart propeled one guy to the other side of Australia? Either that or I'm just not getting it... :neutral:

Correct!

Too bad it was a joke. I could drink just a little and use it to propel myself to work and back without having to drive.

Brian, having to add the map of Australia did kind of kill the joke and the humour is quite Aussie too

Yeah, we don't have fart jokes here :D

he he

Crazy Aussie humor I suppose :smile:

I found it rather funny! Thanks PBO

lol, I guess you have to have criminal ancestry to truly appreciate Aussie humor. :lol:

LOL Low, low.

Says the American,:lol: most Australian settlers were upstanding citizens who were down on there luck, debtors that were prepared to accept the perils of an ocean voyage and life in an unknown land in exchange for payment to their creditors, and the promise of a fresh start. A good proportion of American settlers however were criminal fugitives that would never have been given that offer and were only prepared to risk their necks on an ocean voyage in a bid escape the law and save their necks from the hangman's noose.

I guess the guy who ended up in Perth won't have to worry about chunks of poop getting stuck to his butt hairs for a while.

That's disgusting! You don't have a criminal history do you? 'cause it was funny too. You made my face screw up on that mental image.

Hi guys.Funny joke.As for the criminal thing,Most of my ancestors were sent over to aus as criminals.One for stealing 1/2 dozen chickens,he was 9 years old.lol Another was sent down under for stealing a coat,it was cold!lol

Not all people relocating to Aus were convicts. My mothers family arrived as free settlers on the second fleet of ships. There does seem to be more kudos among Aussies if you were a convict though
