An old retired wood cutter lives in the South West of W.A. in the timber town of Manjimup.
He is so good at his trade that even blindfolded just by sniffing an off cut of timber he can tell what type it is and where it's come from.
One night he's sitting at the bar having a few, when some out of towners decide to have some fun with him.
With the Woodsniffer blindfolded one of the gents rushes outside pulls a picket off the back fence takes it back into the pub places it under the Woodsniffers nose and waits.
Sniff, sniff, sniff up and down he goes a few times, Pauses for dramatic effect and announces, " Pinus Radiartus 10- 12 years old 3 coats of Dulux Weather Shield."
Right on the money the crowd yell 100% right.
Stunned, the gent rushes out to his Jaguar Car and unscrews the Gear knob takes this inside and again places it under the nose of the blindfolded Wood Sniffer.
Sniff, sniff, sniff up and down he goes a few times, Pauses for dramatic effect and announces, "Imported Oak, English by the smell with a polished Lacquer finish".
The crowd of locals roar with delight.
Getting worried, and trying to win back some pride the Townie aproaches the Barmaid and offers her $500.00 to drop her pants and lay on the bar beneath the Wood Sniffer.
Sniff, sniff, sniff up and down he goes a few times, pauses.... and to the crowds amazement, sniff, sniff,sniff up and down again he goes. Finally he shakes his head and says this has him a little troubled and could they please turn the piece over. The Barmaid gently rolls over and..... Sniff, sniff, sniff up and down again goes the Woodsniffer. Finally pausing for dramatic effect he announces that this has really got him stummped. However having a stab in dark the he says..................................... "I can't tell what type of wood it is, but It's gotta be the dunny door of a prawn Trawler". 8O
Mike and Joan were having some problems at home and were giving each other the "silent treatment." But then Mike realized that he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning drive with some pals to a golf match.
Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and so lose the " war"), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 am."
The next morning, Mike woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 am and that his friends would have left for the golf course without him. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't awakened him when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.
The paper said, "It is 5:00 am. Wake up."

Yesterday scientists in the USA revealed that beer contains small traces of female hormones.
To prove their theory they fed 100 men 12 pints of beer and observed that 100% of them
started talking nonsense and couldn't drive...
--------------------------------------------
Wife: Let's go out and have some fun tonight.
Husband: Okay, but if you get home before I do, leave the hallway
light on.
--------------------------------------------
How many men does it take to open a beer?
None. It should be opened by the time she brings it to the couch.

A penguin is driving through Arizona (as they do) on a hot summer's day
when he notices his oil light is on. He gets out of the car and, sure
enough, it's leaking oil all over the road. The penguin drives around
the corner to a service station and asks the mechanic to take a look at
it.
The mechanic says he has a few others to look at first but if he comes
back in an hour he can tell the penguin what is wrong with his car. The
penguin agrees and goes for a walk.
He finds an ice cream shop and thinks a big bowl of vanilla ice cream
will really hit the spot since he's a penguin and it's Arizona in the
summer, after all. He sits down at the counter and starts in on his ice
cream.
Of course he has no hands so it is rather messy. By the time he is done
he has ice cream all over his flippers and his mouth-a total mess.
He walks back to the service station and says to the mechanic, "Did you
find out what is wrong with my car?"
The mechanic replies, "It looks like you've blown a seal."
"No, no," says the penguin. "It's just ice cream!"
Three Drunk Women had a very late night drinking. They left in the early
morning hours and went home their separate ways. The next day, they all met and compared notes about who was drunker the night before.
The first girl claimed that she was the drunkest, saying, "I drove straight
home and walked into the house. As soon as I got through the door I blew
chunks for 10 minutes."
The second said, "You think that was drunk? Hell I got into my car and
wrapped my car around the first tree I saw. I don't even have insurance!"
The third proclaimed, "Damn, I was the drunkest by far. When I got home, I got into a big fight with my husband, knocked a candle over, and burned the whole house down!"
The room was silent for a moment.
Then, the first girl spoke out again, " Listen girls, I don't think you understand
...Chunks is my dog."
A husband and wife are having dinner at a fine restaurant. A lovely, stunning young woman glides over to their table, smiles lovingly at the husband, delivers him a seductive open-mouthed kiss, then says she'll see him later and
walks away.
The wife glares at her husband, "Who the hell was that?"
"Oh," replies the husband, "she's my mistress."
"Well, that's the last straw," says the wife through clenched teeth. "I've had enough! I want a divorce."
"I can understand that," replies her husband between sips of wine, "but if we divorce, that's the end of your shopping sprees to Paris, no more wintering in Barbados, no more summer get-aways in Tuscany, no more Jags in the garage and you can say goodbye to our yacht club friends . . . but the decision is yours."
Just then, a mutual friend entered the restaurant with a gorgeous blond
on his arm.
"Who's that woman with Jim?" asks the wife.
"Oh ... that's Sasha, his mistress."
"Ours is prettier," she replies.
