			| Poor old Liverpool 
					A Primary  Teacher explains to her class that she is a Liverpool fan.
 She  asks her students to raise their hands if they too are Liverpool  fans.Everyone in the class raises their hand except one little  girl.
 
 The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says, '  Mary , why didn't you
 raise your hand?'
 
 'Because  I'm not a Liverpool fan,' she replied.
 
 The teacher, still  shocked, asked, 'Well, if you are not a Liverpool fan, then who are you  a fan of?'
 
 'I am a Man Utd fan, and proud of it,' Mary  replied.
 
 The teacher could not believe her ears. ' Mary , why,  pray tell, are you a Man Utd fan?'
 
 'Because my mum is a Man Utd  fan, and my dad is a Man Utd fan, so I'm a Man Utd fan  too!'
 
 'Well,' said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone,  'that is no reason for you to be a Man Utd fan. You don't have to be  just like your parents all of the time.. What if your mum was a  prostitute and your dad was a drug addict, what would you be  then?'
 
 'Then,' Mary smiled, 'I'd be a Liverpool  fan.
 --------------------------------------------------------
 An Australian ,  an Irishman and a Scouser are in a bar.
 
 They're staring at  another man sitting on his own at a table in the corner. He's so  familiar, and not recognising him is driving them mad. They stare and  stare, until suddenly the Irishman twigs: 'My God, it's  Jesus!'
 
 Sure enough, it is Jesus, nursing a pint. Thrilled, they  send him over a pint of Guinness, a pint of Fosters and a pint of  bitter. Jesus accepts the drinks, smiles over at the three men, and  drinks the pints slowly, one after another.
 
 
 After he's  finished the drinks, Jesus approaches the trio. He reaches for the hand  of the Irishman and shakes it, thanking him for the Guinness. When he  lets go, the Irishman gives a cry of amazement: 'My God! The arthritis  I've had for 30 years is gone. It's a miracle!'
 
 Jesus then  shakes the Aussie's hand, thanking him for the lager. As he lets go, the  man's eyes widen in shock. 'Strewth mate, the bad back I've had all my  life is completely gone! It's A Miracle.'
 
 Jesus then  approaches the Scouser who says, 'Back off, mate, I'm on disability  benefit.'

 A scouser  walked into the local job centre, marched straight up to the
 counter  and said 'Hi, I'm looking for a job'.
 
 The man  behind the counter replied 'Your timing is amazing. We've just got One  in from a very wealthy man who wants a chauffeur/bodyguard for his  Nymphomaniac twin daughters. You'll have to drive around in a big black  Mercedes and wear the uniform provided. The hours are a bit long but the  meals are provided. You also have to escort the young ladies on their  Overseas holidays. The Salary package is 200,000 a  year'.
 
 The Scouser  said 'You're bullsh*tting me!'
 
 The man  behind the counter said 'Well you started it!'

 Police  cordoned off Liverpool City Centre this morning when a suspicious object  was discovered in a car.
 
 It later turned out to be a tax  disc.

					I think they are great !
 In fact here is one of my own.
 
 Police in Liverpool have arrested 3 of the 4 well known Scouse Islamic terrorists, Bin Snortin, Bin Dealing & Bin Theiving, but there has been no sight of Bin Workin.

					I understand the jokes based on context, but must confess that my American mind, despite many, many months spent in the UK in my life, is unfamiliar with the term Scouser.  Anyone care to enlighten?
 Nothing worse than  explaining a joke, I know :rolleyes:

					Here is the definition for you Paul !http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scouse 
I support the worlds best football team (in my opinion anyway !) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liverpool_F.C . and although I dont speak with a scouse accent, I have lived around Liverpool for the last 17 years.

					Cheers Toni.
 All my time in England was spent in the East Anglia, London, and Kent areas of the country.  That must explain why I've never heard the term.
