ACTUAL AUSTRALIAN COURT DOCKET 12659---CASE OF THE PREGNANT LADY...
A lady about 8 months pregnant got on a bus. She noticed the man
opposite her was smiling at her. She immediately moved to another seat. This
time the smile turned into a grin, so she moved again. The man seemed more
amused when on the fourth move, the man burst out laughing, she complained
to the driver and he had the man arrested.
The case came up in court. The judge asked the man (about 20 years
old) what he had to say for himself. The man replied, "Well your Honor, it
was like this: When the lady
got on the bus, I couldn't help but notice her condition. She sat under a
sweets sign that said: "The Double Mint Twins are Coming" and I grinned.
Then she moved and sat under a sign that said: "Logan's Liniment will reduce
the swelling", and I had to smile. Then she placed herself under a
deodorant sign that said, "William's Big Stick Did the Trick", and I could
hardly contain myself. BUT, your Honor, when she moved the fourth time and
sat under a sign that said, "Goodyear Rubber could have prevented this
Accident".. I just lost it."

The banker saw his old friend Tom, an eighty-year-old rancher, in town. Tom had lost his wife a year or so before and rumor had it that he was marrying a "mail order" bride.
Being a good friend, the banker asked Tom if the rumor was true. Tom assured him that it was. The banker then asked Tom the age of his new bride to be. Tom proudly said, "She'll be twenty-one in November."
Now the banker, being the wise man that he was, could see that the sexual appetite of a young woman could not be satisfied by an eighty-year-old man. Wanting his old friend's remaining years to be happy the banker tactfully suggested that Tom should consider getting a hired hand to help him out on the ranch, knowing nature would take its own course. Tom thought this was a good idea and said he would look for one that afternoon.
About four months later, the banker ran into Tom in town again. "How's the new wife?" asked the banker. Tom proudly said, "Oh, she's pregnant."
The banker, happy that his sage advice had worked out, continued, "And how's the hired hand?"
Without hesitating, Tom said, "She's pregnant too."
Don't ever underestimate us old geezers.

The Principles of Jewish Buddhism
1. Let your mind be as a floating cloud. Let your stillness be as the wooded glen. And sit up straight. You'll never meet the Buddha with such round shoulders.
2. There is no escaping karma. In a previous life, you never called, you never wrote, you never visited. And whose fault was that?
3. Wherever you go, there you are. Your luggage is another story.
4. To practice Zen and the art of Jewish motorcycle maintenance, do the following: get rid of the motorcycle. What were you thinking?
5. If there is no self, whose arthritis is this?
6. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. Forget to do this and attaining Enlightenment will be the least of your problems.
7. The Tao has no expectations. The Tao demands nothing of others. The Tao does not speak. The Tao does not blame. The Tao does not take sides. The Tao is not Jewish.
8. Drink tea and nourish life. With the first sip, joy. With the second, satisfaction. With the third, Danish.
9. The Buddha taught that one should practice loving kindness to all sentient beings. Still, would it kill you to find a nice sentient being who happens to be Jewish?
10. Be patient and achieve all things. Be impatient and achieve all things faster.
11. Be here now. Be someplace else later. Is that so complicated?
12. Zen is not easy. It takes effort to attain nothingness. And then what do you have? Bupkes!
