This post reminded me of a joke from years ago [sorry if I am spoiling the mood here] Anyway here it is:

What is the difference between a duck?

And the answer: One of its legs is both the same.

Variations I found today:

One of its legs is both the same, and it bangs its head together when it walks.

Oranges. Because motorcycles don't have doors.

The higher it flies, the much.

False, because there are no bones in ice cream.

One of its legs is not the same, and (holding out your hands as if demonstrating it's size) it's about this colour.

A fella I know is regular purveyor of punes ...

Here are just a selection.

I stopped off at Makro earlier for some veggies. Whilst there I *almost* decided to buy some roe meat and muntjac meat. However, it quickly became apparent that I could not afford to. They were two deer.

Everyone knows about Tommy Lee, his role in Motley Crue, and his marriage to Pamela Anderson's bosom, but his fame rather over-shadowed his equally talented brother, Frank.
Frank is a graphics designer, specialising in computer generated images, and their use in advertising.
A few weeks ago he was approached by the Vatican, in the guise of a rather attractive young lady. Apparently the Catholic Church had decided to go Hi Tech, and produce a website to explore, in word, song, verse and image, the whole of the christian church, from creation to the present day. As a world leader in this sort of work, Frank's name had been suggested, and the young lady had sought him out.
Unfortunately things did not get off to a good start, as the door to the house was opened, not by Frank but by his brother, who fell for the young lady immediately, and failed to introduce himself. Tommy's advances were loudly rebuffed, and the representative of the church tried to explain that she wanted some GIF images of the whole of creation doing, and was really not interested in *Frank's* advances.
Hearing all this, Frank hurried down the stairs. Whilst he certainly wanted to help the young lady he was not hugely enamoured of the church, and decided, whilst decending the stairs, that he would turn the offer down.
He sent his brother away with a flea in his ear, and turned to the young lady to introduce himself.
Holding out his hand he said
"Frank Lee, my dear. I don't GIF Adam"

Or this one ...

I've seen a lot of strange beliefs, splinter-groups, small groups, large groups...but today I met some preachers from what must be one of the most bizarre small cults I have ever heard of!
Apparently, to gain enlightenment, safe passage into heaven, purity of soul, and probably 50% off at B&Q, what you have to do is read as many daily and weekly news papers, and magazines, as you possibly can. if you spot a reference to God, or one of his own, then you have to cut it out, and glue it into a scrap book.
Every week you present your scrap book at the altar of the One God, and eventually I suppose you gain all the above.
I'm not sure, however, that I want to be a stick in sect....

Two very famous chefs were competing in a prestigious cooking competition - they both had to produce a lovely main course featuring a fish dish.
They worked really hard, and in the end one had done a lovely dish containing plaice, scallops and turbot, all presented beautifully on a bed of exotic lettuces and other salads. The othe had used a larger fish, and had concentrating on making it look delicious using a wonderful sauce.
The second chef won the contest, and as he was presented with his prize, the first chef was heard to sigh:
"There but for the glaze of cod, go I"
