 A single man wanted someone to help him with the household chores,  so he decided to get a pet to help out.
 
 He went to the local pet shop and asked the owner for advice on a suitable animal. The owner suggested a dog, but the man said,  "Nah, dogs can't do dishes." The owner then suggested a cat, but  the man said, "Nah, cats can't do the ironing."
 
 Finally the owner suggests a centipede, "This is the perfect pet  for you. It can do anything!" "OK," the man thought, "I'll give it  a try," so he bought it and took it home.
 
 Once home he told the centipede to wash the dishes. The centipede  looks over and there are piles and piles of dirty dishes that look  to be a month old. Five minutes later, all the pots are washed,  dried, and put away. "Great," thought the man.
 
 Then he told the centipede to do the dusting and vacuuming.  Fifteen minutes later the house is spotless. Wow, thought the man,  so he decided to try another idea. "Go down to the corner and get  me the evening paper," he told the centipede, and off it went.
 
 Fifteen minutes later, the centipede hadn't returned. 30 minutes  later and still no centipede. Forty-five minutes and the man was sick of waiting, so he got up and went out to look for the centipede.
 
 As he opened the front door, there on the step was the centipede. "Hey, whatcha' doing there? I sent you out for the  paper 45 minutes ago and now I find you out here without the paper! What  gives?"
 
 "Hold on a minute!" said the centipede, "I'm still putting on my  boots!"



Two guys are out in the woods hiking.

All of a sudden, a bear starts chasing them. They climb a tree, but the bear starts climbing up the tree after them.

The first guy gets his sneakers out of his knapsack and starts putting them on.

The second guy says, "What are you doing? He says, "I figure when the bear gets too close, we'll have to jump down and make a run for it." The second guy says, "Are you crazy? You can't outrun a bear"!

The first guy says, "I don't have to outrun the bear. I only have to outrun you…


A couple goes for a meal at a Chinese restaurant and order the "Chicken Surprise." The waiter brings the meal, served in a lidded cast iron pot. Just as the wife is about to serve herself, the lid of the pot rises lightly and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before the lid slams back down.

"Good grief, did you see that?" she asks her husband.

He hasn't, so she asks him to look in the pot. He reaches for it and again the lid rises, and he sees two little eyes looking around before it slams down. Rather perturbed, he calls the waiter over, explains what is happening, and demands an explanation.

"Please sir," says the waiter, "what you order?"

The husband replies, "Chicken Surprise."

"Ah, so sorry," says the waiter, "I accidentally bring you Peeking duck."
