I am listening to Nevada Barr's "Firestorm" on tape in my car. On the way to work this morning, I heard this joke told by an EMT at the site of a forest fire.

Do you know why Smokey the Bear never got married?


Every time a woman got hot, he hit her with a shovel!



Then when I got to work, one of my co-workers told us the story of her boyfriend finding a live bat hanging inside her toilet this morning! Argh!! I can't imagine how awful that would have been to sit down and feel something on you backside! Fortunately, he found it before sitting down.

The joke made me laugh and the bat story made me go "Ewwwwwwwwww".

Ewww is right!

I might of had a mental colaspe If I had found a Bat In the bathroom, Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww is totally right!!!


Them little buggers freak me out anyway!!

OMG how did it get it there?????

No Bats. They give me the willies!

I am with Jody on that one...I would be having a mental collapse too...and lose whatever I was going to the bathroom for on the floor!!!


My brother is a supervisor of the Fire Program here and they sent firefighters to BC to fight fires...I'm going to have to tell him that joke!

Thanks for sharing! I second that... how'd it get there?

They have bats in their yard and occasionally they make it into the house--probably through the attic.

LOL! on the joke.




EEEEEWWWWW on the bat! I get the creepies when I see bugs.

That joke is too funny!!!




I would freak out if I saw a bat anywhere in my house!

See if those darn men would leave the lids down they wouldn't have that problem!

A bat flew into our house the other night when my DS was letting the dogs out. Luckily I wasn't home at the time. My DH chased it around with a broom for quite awhile before killing it. It is the 2nd time one has got into our house-that's not bad since we've lived there over 26 years. I do hate the critters though!

LOL and oh, my gosh!!!!
