ELECTRIC FENCE

Seems a sheep farmer was puzzled about the disappearance of some sheep on his farm. After a few weeks the farmer decided to put up an electric fence.

About a week later, this is what he found! (click the image for larger view)

Now , I know we’ve all heard of people being eaten by snakes & I bet most of us have said,
‘If a snake tried to eat me, I’d blah, blah, blah & ; get away.’
Well, this is a Python & they’re extremely aggressive & have a few teeth that they use to
hold their prey while they wrap around them & then constrict.
Could you get away if this one bit you & held on with it’s

‘few teeth?’

This got the whole of Sydney laughing. Read it and you’ll see why! Just imagine sitting in traffic on your way to work and hearing this. Many Sydney folks DID hear this on the FOX FM morning show in Sydney.

The DJs play a game where they award winners great prizes. The game is called ‘Mate Match’. The DJs call someone at work and ask if they are married or seriously involved with someone. If the contestant answers ‘yes’, he or she is then asked 3 random yet highly personal questions.

Anyway, here’s how it all went down:

DJ: ‘Hey! This is Ed on FOX-FM. Have you ever heard of ‘Mate Match’?’
Contestant: (laughing) ‘Yes, I have.’
DJ: ‘Great! Then you know we’re giving away a trip to the Gold Coast if
you win.
What is your name? First only please.’
Contestant: ‘Brian.’
DJ: ‘Brian, are you married or what?’
Brian: (laughing nervously) ‘Yes, I am married.’
DJ: ‘Thank you. Now, what is your wife’s name? First only please.’
Brian: ‘Sara.’
DJ: ‘Is Sara at work, Brian?’
Brian: ‘She is gonna kill me.’
DJ: ‘Stay with me here, Brian! Is she at work?’
Brian: (laughing) ‘Yes, she’s at work.’
DJ: ‘Okay, first question - when was the last time you had sex?’
Brian: ‘About 8 o’clock this morning.’
DJ: ‘Atta boy, Brian.’
Brian: (laughing sheepishly) ‘Well…’
DJ: ‘Question #2 - How long did it last?’
Brian: ‘About 10 minutes.’
DJ: ‘Wow! You really want that trip, huh? No one would ever have said
that if a trip wasn’t at stake.’
Brian: ‘Yeah, that trip sure would be nice.’
DJ: ‘Okay. Final question. Where did you have sex at 8 o’clock this =
morning?
Brian: (laughing hard) ‘I, ummm, I, well…’
DJ: ‘This sounds good, Brian. Where was it at?’
Brian: ‘Not that it was all that great, but her mum is staying with us
for couple of weeks…’
DJ: ‘Uh huh…’
Brian: ‘…and the Mother-In-Law was in the shower at the time.’
DJ: ‘Atta boy, Brian.’
Brian: ‘On the kitchen table.’
DJ: ‘Not that great?? That is more adventure than the previous hundred
times I’ve done it. Okay folks, I will put Brian on hold, get his wife’s work number and
call her up.
 
You listen to this.’
[ 3 minutes of commercials follow. ]
 
DJ: ‘Okay audience; let’s call Sarah, shall we?’ (Touch
tones…..ringing….)
Clerk: ‘Kinkos.’
DJ: ‘Hey, is Sarah around there somewhere?’
Clerk: ‘This is she.’
DJ: ‘Sarah, this is Ed with FOX-FM. We are live on the air right now and
I’ve been talking with Brian for a couple of hours now.’
Sarah: (laughing) ‘A couple of hours?’
 
DJ: ‘Well, a while now. He is on the line with us. Brian knows not to
give any\answers away or you’ll lose.
Sooooooo… do you know the rules of ‘Mate Match’?’
 
Sarah: ‘No.’
 
DJ: ‘Good!’
 
Brian: (laughing)
 
Sarah: (laughing) ‘Brian, what the hell are you up to?’
 
Brian: (laughing) ‘Just answer his questions honestly, okay? Be
completely honest.’
 
DJ: ‘Yeah yeah yeah. Sure. Now, I will ask you 3 questions, Sarah. If
your answers match Brian’s answers, then the both of you will be off to
the Gold Coast for 5 days on us.
 
Sarah: (laughing) ‘Yes.’
 
DJ: ‘Alright. When did you last have sex, Sarah?’
 
Sarah: ‘Oh God, Brian….uh, this morning before Brian went to work.’
 
DJ: ‘What time?’
 
Sarah: ‘Around 8 this morning.’
 
DJ: ‘Very good. Next question. How long did it last?’
 
Sarah: ‘12, 15 minutes maybe.’
 
DJ: ‘Hmmmm. That’s close enough. I am sure she is trying to protect his
manhood. We’ve got one last question, Sarah. You are one question away
from a trip to the Gold Coast. Are you ready?’
 
Sarah: (laughing) ‘Yes.’
 
DJ: ‘Where did you have it?’
 
Sarah: ‘OH MY GOD, BRIAN!! You didn’t tell them that did you?’
 
Brian: ‘Just tell him, honey.’
 
DJ: ‘What is bothering you so much, Sarah?’
 
Sarah: ‘Well…’
 
DJ: Come on Sarah…..where did you have it?

Sarah: ‘Up the ass

They had to call an ambulance for the DJ he thought he was going to have a heart attack , he could not stop laughing. Apperently there was an unusually high call out of the Sydney Police just after this conversation , for minor traffic collisions.

He lives in a house, a very big house,
He’s a culchie
Puts cabbage on his bread, has a big mutton head, he’s a culchie.
He doesn’t pay tax, he wears dirty kaks,
He’s a culchie.
He only shouts, when he’s got Foot n Mouth,
He’s a culchie.
Its Majors he smokes,
He can’t tell jokes,
He’s a culchie
He doesn’t have a shed,
He has a barn instead,
He’s a culchie
He doesn’t notice the smell that
We think is hell, He’s a culchie
He drinks Beamish stout,
And knocks his neighbours out,
HE’S A CULCHIE
Na na na na

with daddy in the ‘joy she’s from Dublin.
makes ends meet, by begging in the
street she’s from Dublin.
He lives in a flat, a very small flat,
he’s a jackeen
Takes all manner of pills,
nicks cash from tills, he’s a jackeen.
He doesn’t do a thing, he wears a
sovereign ring, he’s a jackeen.
His sisters is worse,
she keeps spare knickers in her purse,
she’s a jackeen.”
 
And yet another verse …
She’s married to her brother and her
sister is her mother, she’s a culchie.
Wears wellies into town and her
fingernails are brown, she’s a culchie.
She’s four foot five and she’s very
very wide, she’s a culchie.
Has only one t!t and she smells of sh!t,
she’s a culchie.

She comes from Killiney,
drinks bottles of Heine, she’s a southsider.
She drives dad’s beamer,
her mom’s got a cleaner, she’s a southsider.
You won’t get a ride,
she’s got too much pride, she’s a southsider.
Manicured toes and a cocaine nose,
she’s a southsider.
