A good looking man walked into an agent's office in Hollywood and said "I want to be a movie star." Tall, handsome and with experience on Broadway, he had the right credentials. The agent asked, "What's your name?" The guy said, "My name is Penis van Lesbian." The agent said, "Sir, I hate to tell you this, but in order to get into Hollywood, you are going to have to change your name." "I will NOT change my name! The van Lesbian name is centuries old, I will not disrespect my grandfather by changing my name. Not ever." The agent said, "Sir, I have worked in Hollywood for years... you will NEVER go far in Hollywood with a name like Penis van Lesbian! I'm telling you, you will HAVE TO change your name or I will not be able to represent you." "So be it! I guess we will not do business together" the guy said and he left the agent's office. FIVE YEARS LATER..... The agent opens an envelope sent to his office. Inside the envelope is a letter and a cheque for $50,000. The agent is awe-struck, who would possibly send him $50,000? He reads the letter enclosed... "Dear Sir, Five years ago, I came into your office wanting to become an actor in Hollywood, you told me I needed to change my name. Determined to make it with my God-given birth name, I refused. You told me I would never make it in Hollywood with a name like Penis van Lesbian. After I left your office, I thought about what you said and I decided you were right, I had to change my name. I had too much pride to return to your office, so I signed with another agent. I would never have made it without changing my name, so the enclosed cheque is a token of my appreciation. Thank you for your advice. Sincerely, Dick van Dyke.
My mother used to say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Lovely woman. Useless surgeon.
Imagine being 85. A comfortable seat in very pleasant surroundings where you can sit surrounded by people your own age and mumbling nonsense all day. Imagine being attended by nice smiling people and genuinly thinking you are still important, whilst living very nicely at the expense of the taxpayer. Well, that"s not for everyone of course. Some of us arn"t fortunate enough to get a seat in the House of Lords.
Gutted you didn't get a ticket for Glastonbury this year? Just put 12 different cd's on around the house and then stand at the back of the garden occasionally throwing pints of piss down your back.
My neighbour is a Brighton fan, good likeness. Any way congrats @Wooperts_duck on the promotion. About time Pompey got promoted. The lads in work with me are happy. Now need you to stay 3rd so I win the sweepstake.
Cheers neveroffsidereff - it's taken us four years to do it, but Paul Cook has built a good squad of players, so next season could be interesting
Squad is very good, couple of decent additions and you could go up again. Be interesting now with this Yank takeover, just hope he's not all mouth like our Yank owners. Might pop down to Fratton to watch a game or two next season.
My wife said she's leaving me to go and live with her mum in Australia because I make a song and dance about everything. She's leaving on a jet plane, don't know when she'll be back again.....
That settles it, I'm never going back to Yorkshire again. I went into the local department store and asked where I could find towels, and they gave me directions to the bird sanctuary.
My new girlfriend lets me lick anything off her and I love it. Butter, jam, cheese, you name it she lets me lick it off her. She's a cracker.
