VeryPC Posted October 17, 2013 Author Posted October 17, 2013 Alas! I take a day off work and miss the beginning of the crap jokes. I've been beaten to the punch on most of my favourites! Alright, alright, how about: What's grey and can't swim? A filing cabinet. A ship full of tortoises crashes into a ship full of terrapins. It was a turtle disaster. A man handed me a wheel of cheese and asked if I could disguise his horse, I said "I don't think so, but I could probably marscapone." (thanks to Tim Vine for the last two there) Bonus locked, and you are maxed! 1
VeryPC Posted October 17, 2013 Author Posted October 17, 2013 Morning gang. Right. Need to put a time limit on this Jokeathon for @VeryPC_Colin_M We'll continue accepting silly jokes until 12pm noon tomorrow (Friday 17th October 2013). Then we give Colin until Monday morning to review the entries and pick his final favourite. I'll announce the winner of the Stocktober BRING ME THE BOX! T-shirt on Monday morning. Everyone got that? Good. Keep em coming. Remember, everyone who submits a joke or some jokes will earn themselves a bonus entry into STOCKTOBER2! unless they are already on the maximum number of entries which is 3 total (including your original "non-bonus" entry). Good luck everyone! Al
Edu-IT Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 As a side, is somebody picking up Colin's emails, or shall I mail somebody else about something else? Yes.. that made sense. Right?

"...and the elephant goes toot" Just checking it out now. I won't spoil what the fox itself says because it is definitely worth finding out for yourself. Class. Strange, but class. Thanks for that.

TechMonkey Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Wow, that just kept going to higher and higher levels of weirdness.

StevieM Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Would it be ok to swap the trackball for a T-Shirt of the XL variety? @VeryPC I know you've said 'dibs count for nothing', but I did say way back in post #368 that I wanted one of those. If I don't win, perhaps, maybe you could possibly see your way to... No? Oh well, worth a try. Edited October 17, 2013 by StevieM

VeryPC Posted October 17, 2013 Author Posted October 17, 2013 Are there going to be multiple threads or just one? [i'm totally not going to try and take all the things if it's one thread...] We'll post the first big batch as a single thread soon (when we know just who wants to swap for the T-shirt) and wait for claimants. One claim per user, so no "I'll have all of them" or "Numbers 1 through 7 please". We would like the unwanted prizes to be shared out a bit so once someone has claimed one that will be it for them. I'll clarify in the new thread when I post so everyone knows how it's going to work. Cheers, Al OOP - video has finished processing on YouTube - winner draw coming up!
