I wonder if it's possible to get hold of a Neutronium reinforced Groan-O-Meter ?

Not a lot of demand for a Giggle-O-Meter last week.

A time traveller learns classical Latin and goes to visit the ancient Roman Empire.

He is seen by a Legionnaire:
"Halt stranger, who are you?"
Time traveller: " I am from your future, what is you name?"
Legionnaire: "I am Quintus, fifth son of my father, and what is your name?"
Time traveller: "Liv"
Legionnaire, counting fingers "Er, really...."

For Bob Clay and Malcolm G; I think this one has featured before,

I used to be good at Roman numerals but I always have trouble with 51, 6 and 500, it makes me LIVID.

And to quote Fred Dagg, "Here's me bus, I'll get out of your way now".

Of course Ron can probably remember those days .. you know .. Bronto Burgers, Velociraptor Pie ... Stegosaurus on Toast. A program called 'A Cave of Your Own' being sent on the knocking slabs.

My farming mate owns a meadow that never gets any sun.
He said, “I like to sit there on chilly, frosty mornings and listen to the peaceful sounds of ‘Tubular Bells’………I love my cold field.

JJ, you should see a head doctor!!!! The joke is awful! Mr. Stringer should be suspended from the site, for a while, until he sees reason!

(Sorry JJ and Ron, all said in jest!)

No worries Dave, I've already been seen by most genres of quacks, but nothing they could do! I afraid I like any and all jokes and this site needs all the help it can get. Even non-funny comments on jokes are welcome in any form...........

Remember what happened to the Groan-o-meter though!

One for you (a silly Mexican joke, YOU ASKED FOR IT!):

Where do people go when they are sick?
"Hospital!"

Where pets go when they are sick?
"Dogspital"

Rgds.

I'm thinking seriously of swapping out my groan-o-meter for a Smith and Wesson Model 500 magnum.

Dave, that didn't make any sense at all and was Yuck!

At least Ron's had a thought-out clever piece of phrasing.

I'll leave it up to you and Bob to sort out who is going to be SHs Senior Joke Monitor, but personally, I'd rather there wasn't one at all......no offence....

Yesterday a my neighbour's cute little hairy dog snatched a ribbon from its mistress's dressing table and swallowed it before it could be stopped.

Today it came out tied in a perfect bow.

Moscow man buys a newspaper, glances at the front page, then throws it away. Next day, same again, and again, and again.
Eventually the newspaper seller snaps: "Why do you do that ?"
"Oh I'm just checking for an obituary," replies the man.
"But obituaries aren't even on the front page," says the seller.
"Oh, the one I'm looking for will be."

I had an Ink Monitors job at junior school when I was kid. It was a good racket until the compass monitor mob moved in and made me take a different direction. I thought about going into the ruler monitor racket, but there were just too many rules.
