For a couple years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep, not enough sunshine, too much pressure from my job, earwax buildup, poor blood or anything else I could think of. But now I found out the real reason:

I'm tired because I'm overworked. Here's why:

The population of this country is 273 million. 140 million are

retired.

That leaves 133 million to Do the work. There are 85 million in school, which leaves 48 million to do the work. Of these there are 29 million employed by the federal government, leaving 19 million to do the work.

2.8 million are in the armed forces Preoccupied with Iraq. Which leaves 16.2 million to do the work. Take from the total the 14,800,000 people who are employed by state and city governments. And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals, Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons. That leaves just two people to do the work. You and me.

And there you are sitting on your arse, at your computer, reading jokes.

Nice. Real nice

One of the funniest I've seen in a while!

I likedLOL

sitting on my arse reading jokes is what i do best

Was that reading jokes, or posting them?

Yes, the Z did change her mind....

Once more round for you new guys!

"Nice, real nice", that's what Gomer say's about Mary Grace. That's great! I just realized it's from '04.

Cute, but dated. The 2012 USA population is 311 million, not 273 million; 40 million are 65 and over and receiving Social Security; 12 million are unemployed; 79 million are in school...I could go on.

The part that was totally 100% accurate is the last line, "And there you are sitting on your arse, at your computer, reading jokes." And, might I add, fact checking.

Dennis

I blame it on race car.

Oh.... sigh of relief .... I though you were going to say that you had trouble with your heart, and would need by-pass surgery.. {One of the main symptoms of heart health problems is lack of energy}..

Don't scare me like that!!

FWIW,
