HAVE A LAUGH

Post turtle

While stitching a cut on the hand of a 75 year old farmer, whose hand was caught in the squeeze gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.

Eventually the topic got around to politicians and their role as our leaders.

The old cockie said, “Well, as I see it, most politicians are ‘Post Turtles’.”

Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a ‘post turtle’ was.

The old farmer said, “When you’re driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a post turtle.”

The old farmer saw the puzzled look on the doctor’s face so he continued to explain.

“You know he didn’t get up there by himself, he doesn’t belong up there, he doesn’t know what to do while he’s up there, he’s elevated beyond his ability to function, and you just wonder what kind of half-wit put him up there to begin with.”

Best explanation of a politician I’ve ever heard.

Zoo visit

A police officer sees a man driving around with a pickup truck full of penguins.

He pulls the guy over and says, “You can’t drive around with penguins in this town! Take them to the zoo immediately.”

The guy says OK, and drives away. The next day, the officer sees the guy still driving around with the truck full of penguins - and they’re all wearing sunglasses.

He pulls the guy over and demands, “I thought I told you to take these penguins to the zoo yesterday.”

The guy replies, “I did... today I’m taking them to the beach!”
