Job Interview
Jennifer, a manager at large organization, had the task of hiring someone to fill a job opening. After sorting through a stack of resumés, she found four people who were equally qualified. Jennifer decided to call the four in for a group interview and ask them only one question. Their answer would determine which of them would get the job.
The day came, and as the four sat around the conference room table, Jennifer asked, “What is the fastest thing you can think of?”
The first person replied, “A THOUGHT. It just pops into your head. There’s no warning.”
“That’s very good!” replied Jennifer.
“And, now you, ma’am?” she asked the second person.
“Hmmm. . .let me see. A BLINK! It comes and goes and you don’t know that it ever happened.”
“Excellent!” said Jennifer. “The blink of an eye; that’s a very popular cliché for speed.”
She then turned to the third person, who was contemplating his reply.
“Well, out at my dad’s ranch, you step into the house and on the wall there’s a light switch. When you flip that switch, way out across the pasture, the light on the barn comes on in less than an instant. Yep, TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of.”
Jennifer was very impressed with the third answer and thought she had found the right person. “It’s hard to beat the speed of light,” she said.
Turning to Louie, the fourth and final candidate, Jennifer posed the same question.
Old Louie replied, “After hearing the previous three answers, it’s obvious to me that the fastest thing known is DIARRHEA.”
“What!?” said Jennifer, stunned by the response.
“Oh, sure,” said Louie. “You see, the other day I wasn’t feeling so good in the gut, and I ran for the bathroom, but before I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON THE LIGHT, I had already done it in my pants.”
Louie is now the new supervisor!

FUNNY FRIDAY
You Gotta Love Old Women
An old woman prospector shuffled into town, leading a tired old mule. The old woman headed straight for the only saloon to clear her parched throat.
She walked up and tied her old mule to the hitch rail. As she stood there, brushing some of the dust from her face and clothes, a young gunslinger stepped out of the saloon with a gun in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other.
The young gunslinger looked at the old woman and laughed, saying, “Hey, old woman, have you ever danced?”
The old woman looked up at the gunslinger and said, “No, I never did dance. Never really wanted to.”
A crowd had gathered as the gunslinger grinned and said, “Well, you old bag, you’re gonna dance now.” And he started shooting at the old woman’s feet.
The old woman prospector, not wanting to get her toes blown off, started hopping around. Everybody was laughing.
When his last bullet had been fired, the young gunslinger, still laughing, holstered his gun and turned around to go back into the saloon.
The old woman turned to her pack mule, pulled out a double-barreled shotgun, and cocked both hammers.
The loud clicks carried clearly through the desert air. The crowd stopped laughing immediately.
The young gunslinger heard the sounds, too, and he turned around very slowly. The silence was almost deafening.
The crowd watched as the young gunman stared at the old woman and the large gaping holes of those twin barrels.
The barrels of the shotgun never wavered in the old woman’s hands as she quietly said, “Son, have you ever licked a mule’s butt?”
The gunslinger swallowed hard and said, “No, ma’am…but…I’ve always wanted to.”
THERE ARE A FEW LESSONS FOR US ALL HERE:
1. Never be arrogant.
2. Don’t waste your ammunition.
3. Whiskey makes you think you’re smarter than you are.
4. Always, always make sure you know who has the power.
5. Don’t mess with old women; they didn’t get old by being stupid.

FUNNY FRIDAY
Kids and Their Teachers
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal, its throat was very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.
The little girl replied, “Well, when I get to Heaven, I will ask Jonah.”
The teacher asked, “What if Jonah went to hell?”
The little girl responded, “Then you ask him.”
