As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you are losing some of your load." The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street.


When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again. She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!" Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the street.


At the third red light, the same thing happens again. All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck door.


The trucker rolls down the window. Again she says "Hi, my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"


When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next light. When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde. He knocks on her window, and after she lowers it, he says... "Hi, my name is Kevin, it's winter here in West Virginia and I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!"

This is another obvious flight of fantasy. Who ever heard of a trucker turning down a blonde running alongside his truck? Really, Ohiosam, you might at least tell jokes that relate to the real world!

Come on Gerry you know that a good joke is a balance between what we know to be true and what is absurd. Take the Irish drinking joke. We all know Irishmen are infamous beer drinkers. We also know Irishmen try bend the rules. Of course it's absurd he'd give up beer for lent. But the idea he'd find a loop hole to have a couple of beers is hilarious and you know it
As far as the the truck driver not stopping for the blonde did you ever stop to think maybe he's one of those "funny" truck drivers you hear about

What's really funny is the notion of winter in West Virginia, what a riot.

You forget the little sliver of WV that goes up between Ohio and Pennsylvania. It's as far north as Pittsburgh. Only about 100 miles from Lake Erie!

Actually the roads get pretty crappy 'round here.If ya ain't ever been here,it's pretty hilly.Some say that ya could flatten West Virginia out,it would be the size of Texas.
Some roads are like driving up a drill bit.
What jerks my chain is when we have a snowfall and yer trying to get to work,for some reason the 'Blue-Haired'ole ladies pick that morning to get in their Valiant and slide around trying to get their hair re-blued.
I know Canada gets a lot of snow and harsh winters,but it ain't no picnic here.
I still wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

Sorry PT, just yankin' yer chain a bit.

I will not descend to answering you - except to say that I bitterly resent your libelous remark about "infamous beer drinkers".

I like single malt Irish Whiskey the best.

Cobra:

Oh, Lord! Here I was beginning to think that you (unlike OhioSam) was a man who understood what a good whisky was - in short, a gentleman of discerning taste. Instead, what do I see? An Irish whisky drinker! ( Once again I rise to defend myself against those barbarians who think Irish and Scotch whisky even deserve the name of "whisky"and who say I ain't Irish because I never cared for an excellent substitute for varnish remover)

What really upsets me, Cobra, about your remark, is that you are from Canada. It happens that I anoint only two whiskies as deserving of the name " Jack Daniel's" and "Canadian Club" ( the real kind with the white label, not the Seagram's variety) How could you be so disloyal? ( I also admit "Crown Royal" to "Honorable Mention" along with any American bourbon designated by experts ( You have to be from one of those Reb states)

Jack Danials isn't too bad but CC is crap! Leastwise the shit we get up here. Crown Royal is nice as is 7Crown. I used to like Haig Pinch or Haig&Haig way too much, but alas, I can imbibe no longer as I have developed an allergy to something in booze. derf

C'MON GERRY, WE USE CANADIAN CLUB FOR BAR RYE UP HERE AND CROWN ROYAL AND CHIVAS REGAL ARE PASSABLE WHISKIES. YOU WILL NOTE THAT I SAID SINGLE MALT IRISH WHISKEY, HUGE DIFFERENCE. IN CANADIAN WHISKY I LIKE WISER'S DELUXE AND BOURBON I LIKE OLD GRAND DAD. BTW, I DRINK ALL MY WHISKY STRAIGHT, NO WATER, NO ICE.

JUST AS A POINT OF INTEREST, YOU PROBABLY NOTICED MY DIFFERENT SPELLINGS OF WHISKY. CANADIAN AND SCOTCH ARE SPELLED WHISKY. IRISH AND BOURBON (AMERICAN) ARE SPELLED WHISKEY.

AND I STILL LIKE SINGLE MALT IRISH WHISKEY THE BEST.

Both the joke and Glenfiddick are pretty good.
