Walks would mean plural. .. in this case it's just one person walking into a bar. Grammer nazi
No, you're wrong.

One man "walks" into a bar.

Three men "walk" into a bar.

Anyway, the original joke goes:

What do you call it when a Muslim, a communist and a socialist walks up to a podium?

The State of the Union Address.

(You get an entry anyway though, lol)

** Not an Entry **

To be grammatically correct, it should read "walks" into a bar, not "walk."

One person 'walks', 3 people 'walk'... but you could just solve the whole problem and say 'walked'!! :rolleyes: LOL!!

Ok, hang with me here, ok?

Not so much a joke as it is an exercise in mind control and mind reading...

Seriously. Don't skip ahead or it won't work.

Ya ready?
Here we go.

Think of a number between 2 and 10

Got it? Good.

Now, multiply that number by 9. You should have gotten a two digit number, right?

Excellent.
Now add the first digit to the second digit. For example, if your number is 34, you would add 3+4.

Still with me? Cool.
Now subtract 5 from the number you just got (using the example above 3+4=7 then 7-5=2)

Ok, now that new number corresponds to a letter of the alphabet with 1=A, 2=B so on and so forth...
Got your letter? Fantastic.

Now, think of a country that brings with that letter.
It's ok, take your time...
Don't continue until you've thought of a country that begins with that letter, ok?

Ready? Got your country? Great!

Now, move forward in the alphabet one letter. If you had an M as your letter, you'd now be on N, got it?

Now figure out what letter you're on and think of a large animal that begins with that letter.

Wait.
We screwed up somewhere...



...Elephants don't live in Denmark...

;)

Back on topic... :rolleyes:

A fifteen year old Amish boy and his father were in a mall

They were amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver walls that could move apart and then slide back together again.

The boy asked, 'What is this, Father?' The father (never having seen an elevator) responded, 'Son, I have never seen anything like this in my life, I don't know what it is.'

While the boy and his father were watching with amazement, a fat old lady in a wheel chair moved up to the moving walls and pressed a button.

The walls opened, and the lady rolled between them into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father watched the small numbers above the walls light up sequentially. They continued to watch until it reached the last number. and then the numbers began to light in the reverse order.

Finally the walls opened up again and a gorgeous 24-year-old blond stepped out. The father, not taking his eyes off the young woman, said quietly to his son.....

'Go get your Mother.'

An Irishman stranded on a deserted island finds a bottle on the beach. He opens it and out pops a genie.

"You have three wishes," the genie says, "what will your first wish be."

"Hmmm, let me think on that a spell," the Irishman says and then he perks up. "How about a pint of Guinness that never gets empty? That'll do!"

The genie snaps his fingers and a pint of Guinness appears in the Irishman's hand. The Irishman chugs the Guinness down his throat with one gulp and magically the pint refills with Guinness. He chugs that one down too and again, it magically refills with Guinness.

"And for your next two wishes?" the genie asks.

The Irishman points at the pint of Guinness and says, "Two more of these please."
