Ouch!

February 4th, 2004 | by mtpolitics |

This reminds me of an old joke:

A Montanan and a North Dakotan (substitute your own pairing here) are sitting in a bar watching the newscast. A story comes on showing a man standing on the ledge of a building, obviously contemplating whether or not to jump.

The Montanan leans over to the North Dakotan and says, “I’ll bet you 50 bucks that he jumps.”

The North Dakotan looks at the newscast, and thinks about it, then says, “You’re on.”

Sure enough, in a few seconds, the man jumps from the ledge.

The North Dakotan shrugs, and hands over the money to the Montanan.

The Montanan shakes his head and says, “Look, I can’t take your money. I saw this story on the 5 o’clock newscast, and I knew he was going to jump.”

The North Dakotan said, “No, that’s OK. I saw it too, but I never thought he’d jump twice.”

    What about those jokes you know that are only suitable for barrooms and Super Bowl halftime shows?

    I liked it! Heh…can I substitute a Griz fan as the North Dakotan, and Bobcat as the Montanan…?

    You could, but then I’d have to kill you. :)

    Heh. This one works great using a brunette for the Montanan and a blonde for the North Dakotan.

    A man from Wisconsin and a man from Georgia are congregated around the computer as the man from Wisconsin reads the following aloud:

    “A Montanan and a North Dakotan (substitute your own pairing here) are sitting in a bar watching the newscast.”

    The man from Georgia says, “That’s not a believeable joke!”
