NYC TRAFFIC JAM

A stock broker, on his way home from work in New York City, came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this seems much worse than usual. He notices a police officer walking between the lines of stopped cars, so he rolls down his window and asks, "Officer, what's the hold up?

The officer replies, "Hillary Clinton is depressed, so she stopped her motorcade and is threatening to douse herself in gasoline and set herself on fire. She says her husband has spent all her money and the Democrats told her to forget about running for President in 2008. So we're taking up a collection for her."

The stock broker asks, "How much have you got so far?"

The officer replies "About 4 1/2 gallons, but a lot of folks are still  siphoning."

RECIPE

ROAD KILL STIR FRY FROM UNDER THE CAR

Road kill stir fry from under the car
Ya get everything ya need drivin home from the bar
Drinkin corn liquor can make ya get lost
It's hell drivin home when your eyes are both crossed
About now's when a gopher comes into sight
Ya flip on your high beams to give ya more light
The l re in trouble
The light's real good but ya know you're in trouble
You're on a corn liquor drunk and you'r still seein double
You really can't tell which varmit is which
Put the pedal to the metal and head for the ditch
If you're gonna stir fry you're gonna wanna drag
Just jack up your car and fill up your bag
You thought you saw double but it 'must have been a triple
'Cause the gopher on the left side was square in the middle
Scrape the greens and gopher from underneath the car
Grease up the skillet and heat up the far
Cut the greens and the gopher into little bitty squares
Cook em real hot and flip em in the air
