Here goes. Some jokes sent by Marta from Gdansk, Poland. Teacher: "Tommy.,
who was Anne Boleyn?" A boy was asked by his
history teacher to tell the story of Queen Elizabeth and Sir Walter
Raleigh. Source: "Tests in English Thematic Vocabulary", Mariusz Misztal, WSiP, Warszawa, 1999 Thanks to David for sending these two : A bus load of tourists arrives at Runnymede. They gather around the guide who says, "This is the spot where the barons forced King John to sign the Magna Carta." A
fellow at the front of the crowd asks, "When did that happen?" .................................................................................. A tourist is traveling with a guide through one of the thickest jungles in Latin America, when he comes across an ancient Mayan temple. The tourist is entranced by the temple, and asks the guide for details. To this, the guide states that archaeologists are carrying out excavations, and still finding great treasures. The tourist then queries how old the temple is."This temple is 2503 years old", replies the guide. Impressed at this accurate dating, he inquires as to how he gave this precise figure. "Easy", replies the guide, "the archaeologists said the temple was 2500 years old, and that was three years ago." An archaeologist is a person whose career lies in ruins! An archaeologist in the deepest jungle suddenly finds himself surrounded by a blood thirsty group of headhunters. Upon surveying the situation, he says quietly to himself, "Oh God, I've had it." There is a ray of light from heaven and a voice booms out, "No you have NOT had it. Pick up that stone at your feet and bash in the head of the chief standing in front of you." So the archaeologist picks up the stone and proceeds to bash the chief. As he stands above the lifeless body, breathing heavily and surrounded by 100 headhunters with a look of shock on their faces, God's voice booms out again, "Okay...NOW you're had it." A German archaeology team digs down 50m and finds traces of copper wire. Afterwards the German government proclaims that 2000 years ago the Germans obviously had developed a telephone system. Later an English archaeology team digs down 100m and finds traces of glass strands. Afterwards the British government proclaims that 3000 years ago the English obviously had developed a fibre optic based telephone system. An ***** archaeology team digs down 200m and but finds nothing at all. Afterwards the ***** government proclaims that 4000 years ago the ***** invented mobile phones!!!. (NB - Insert nationality of your choice) An archaeologist was
digging in the Negev Desert in Israel and came upon a casket containing a
mummy. After examining it, he
called the curator of a prestigious natural history museum. Parents should tell
their daughters to marry an archaeologist because the older she gets, the
more interested he will be in her. What
was Camelot famous for ? |
