Greetings Laff Lovers,

I'll tell you one thing I miss about the old Tahoe... the last few years it got pretty beat up. I stopped bothering to fix anything. The AC didn't work. The 'barn doors' in back wouldn't open. It was dinged up pretty bad. The bottoms of most of the doors were starting to rust. There was hardly any carpet left in the thing.

But other drivers would get out of my way when that old tank came rumbling down the street, and I didn't mind parking it pretty much anywhere. In fact, toward the end I was kind of hoping someone would either steal it or total it.

Now I have to start driving defensively again.

Is This The Most Useful Light Ever? Customers Say IT IS!

"Taco Bell just announced that it will be adding beer to the menu at certain restaurants in Canada. It's the first time that going to Taco Bell will lead to getting drunk and not the other way around." -James Corden



"Jim, why don't you play golf with Steve anymore?" asked a friend.

"Would you play golf with a guy who moved the ball with his foot when you weren't watching?" Jim asked.

"Well, no, I suppose not," admitted the friend.

"Neither will Steve," replied Jim.



"A man in Oregon walked away with minor injuries after he fell asleep in a dumpster and ended up in a trash compacter. It raises a lot of questions, and the answer to all of them is tequila." -Jimmy Fallon



Conjoined twins walk into a pub in Toronto and park themselves on a bar stool. One of them says to the bartender, "Don't mind us, we're joined at the hip. I'm John, he's Jim. Two Molson Canadian beers please."

The bartender, feeling slightly awkward, tries to make polite conversation while pouring the beers. "Been on holiday, lads?"

"Off to England next month," says John. "We go to England every year, hire a car, and drive for miles, don't we, Jim?" Jim agrees.

"Ah, England!" says the bartender. "Wonderful Country...the history, the beer, the culture..."

"Nah, we don't like that British crap," says John. "Hamburgers and Molson's beer, that's us, eh, Jim? And we can't stand the English; they're so arrogant and rude, not civil and polite like us Canadians."

"So why keep going to England?" asks the bartender.

"It's the only chance Jim gets to drive."



"Expedia released their rankings of the most annoying drivers in America. For the 15th year in a row, the most annoying driver on the road is every driver but you. The survey says the least popular passengers are backseat drivers. I would have said carjackers." -Jimmy Kimmel
