Well, well, well... you finally admitted it I just wonder how come the Bible says that the woman was created from the rib of the man? There must be some kind of mistake there ![]() A joke for you all: The Garden of Eden One day in the Garden of Eden, Eve calls out to God, "Lord, I have a problem!" "What's the problem, Eve?" "Lord, I know you've created me and have provided this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals, and that hilarious comedy snake, but I'm just not happy." "Why is that, Eve?" came the reply from above. "Lord, I am lonely. And I'm sick to death of apples." "Well, Eve, in that case, I have a solution. I shall create a man for you." "What's a 'man', Lord?" "This man will be a flawed creature, with aggressive tendencies, an enormous ego and an inability to empathize or listen to you properly. All in all, he'll give you a hard time. But, he'll be bigger and faster and more muscular than you. He'll be really good at fighting and kicking a ball about and hunting fleet-footed ruminants, and not altogether bad in the sack." "Sounds great," says Eve, with an ironically raised eyebrow. "Yeah, well. He's better than a poke in the eye with a burnt stick. But, you can have him on one condition." "What's that, Lord?" "You'll have to let him believe that I made him first." (Just kidding guys! ![]()

I give you all my support, Frank, your joke was a good one, one more for the war of the sexes. Girls, don't get mad at us, here's one against men:
¿Por qué Dios creó primero al hombre que a la mujer? Porque echando a perder se aprende. I don't know how to exactly translate this, so here goes my try: Why did God create man first? Because learning involves making mistakes. |
