Living in Missouri



The owner of a golf course in Missouri was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He called her into his office and said, "You graduated from Mizzou and I need some help. If I were to give you $20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?" The secretary thought a moment, then replied, "Everything but my earrings." You gotta love those Missouri women.

A group of Missouri friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for the day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering under the weight of an eight-point buck. "Where's Henry?" the others asked. "Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a couple of miles back up the trail," the successful hunter replied. "You l! eft Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?" they inquired. "A tough call," nodded the hunter. "But I figured no one is going to steal Henry!"

A senior at Missouri was overheard saying.. "When the end of the world comes, I hope to be in Missouri." When asked why, he replied he'd rather be in Missouri because everything happens in Missouri 20 years later than in the rest of the civilized world.

The young man from Missouri came running into the store and said to his buddy, "Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking lot!" Bubba replied, "Did you see who it was? "The young man answered, "I couldn't tell, but I got the license number."

NEWS FLASH! - Missouri's worst air disaster occurred when a small two-seater Cessna 150 plane, piloted by two Mizzou students, crashed into a cemetery earlier today. Search and Rescue workers have recovered 300 bodies so far and expect the number to climb as digging continues into the evening. The pilot and copilot survived and are helping in the recovery efforts.

An Missouri State trooper pulled over a pickup on I-44. The trooper asked, "Got any ID?" The driver replied, "Bout whut?"

And My Favorite A man in Missouri had a flat tire, pulled off on the side of the road, and proceeded to put a bouquet of flowers in front of the car and one behind it. Then he got back in the car to wait. A passerby studied the scene as he drove by and was so curious he turned around and went back. He asked the fellow what the problem was. The man replied, "I have a flat ti! re." The passerby asked, "But what's with the flowers?" The man responded, "When you break down they tell you to put flares in the front and flares in the back! I never did understand it either."
