A Leg Up (JOKE) [
Monday September 10th,2007 ;; 09PM
]

JOE, a college student, was taking a course in ornithology, the study of birds.

The night before the biggest test of the term, Joe spent all night studying. He memorised his textbook and all his class notes.

The next day in class, on the table at the front of the auditorium, was a row of 10 stuffed birds. Each bird had a sack covering its body, and only the legs were showing.

The professor said the students were to identify each bird by looking at its legs and give its common name, species, habitat, mating habits and so on.

Joe looked at the legs but they all looked the same to him. He got so angry and screamed, "How could anyone tell the difference between these birds by looking at their legs?"

With that, he walked out.

Shocked, the professor shouted, "Wait a minute, what's your name?"

Joe turned around, pulled up his trouser legs and hollered, "You tell me, prof, you tell me."

here's an old joke from before =o

There was once 3 hunters.
The first hunter went out and caught a bear.
The dumb hunter asked, " how did u catch it?"
The first hunter replied "i followed tracks "
Then, the second hunter went out and caught a boar.
The dumb hunter asked, "how did u catch it?
The second hunter replied, "i followed tracks "
Then, the dumb hunter went out hunting.
He came back all bruised and bloody.
The 2 hunters asked, "what happened?"
He replied, "i followed tracks and got knocked down by a train."
