Flowers from the Backyard (2)


If the flowers from the previous post were about the size of a penny, these flowers are about four times smaller... well, these ones are not something that I protect when I "ride" the lawn mower, they're just growing over night!


Today's joke:

Al and Joe two guys are bungee jumping one day. Al says to Joe:
- You know, we could make a lot of money renting our very own bungee-jumping service in Mexico. They don't have it down there!
Joe thinks this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy everything they'll need: a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, and all.
They travel down to Mexico and begin to set up on the square. As they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more and more people gather to watch them at work. When they had finished, there was such a crowd, they thought it would be a good idea to give a demonstration to the large crowd below!
So Al jumps...
Al bounces at the end of the cord, but when he comesfback up, Joe notices that he has a few cuts and scratches. Unfortunately, Joe isn't able to catch him, and he goes down again, bounces, and comes back up. This time, he is bruised and bleeding. Again, Joe misses him. Al falls again and bounces back up.This time, he is pretty messed up. He's got a couple of broken bones and is almost unconscious. Luckily, Joe catches him this time and says:
- What happened? Was the cord too long?
Barely able to speak, Al gasps:
- No, the bungee cord was fine. It was the crowd. What the hell is a pinata?
