Clever neighbor

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower & the doorbell rings.

After a few seconds of arguing over who should go and answer the doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up in a towel and runs downstairs.

Then she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next door neighbor.

Before she says a word, Bob says, "I will give you $800 just to drop that towel that you have on" After thinking for a moment , the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob.

Bob has a close look at her for a few seconds, hands over $800 and quickly leaves.

Confused, but excited about her good fortune, the woman wraps back up in the towel and goes upstairs.

When she gets back to the bathroom, her husband asks from the shower " who was that ?"

"It was Bob the next door neighbor," she replies.

"Great," the husband says, " did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?"

Bird & cat’s story

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there miserably in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.

A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the under the pile of cow dung, promptly dug him out and ate him.

Moral of the story :

1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.

2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.

3) And when you are in deep shit, its best to keep your mouth shut!

Boss

A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?

The crow answered: "Sure, why not." So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow and rested.

All of a sudden a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story : To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
