i havent posted a new joke in 21 days or so. so as a treat ive put in two jokes for this blog.

Joke #15

Italian Girl

An 18 year old Italian girl tells her Mom that she has missed her period for 2 months. Very worried, the mother goes to the drug store and buys a pregnancy kit.

The test result shows that the girl is pregnant! Shouting, cursing, crying, the mother says, "Who was the pig that did this to you? I want to know!"

The girl picks up the phone and makes a call. Half an hour later, a Ferrari stops in front of their house. A mature and distinguished man with gray hair and impeccably dressed in an Armani suit steps out of the of the Ferrari and enters the house.

He sits in the living room with the father, mother, and the girl and tells them: "Good morning; your daughter has informed me of the problem. I can't marry her because of my personal family situation but I'll take charge. I will pay all costs and provide for your daughter for the rest of her life.

Additionally, if a girl is born, I will bequeath a Ferrari, a beach house, 2 retail stores, a townhouse, a beachfront villa, and a $2,000,000 bank account.

If a boy is born, my legacy will be two factories and a $4,000,000 bank account. If twins, they each will receive a factory and $2,000,000.

However, if there is a miscarriage, what do you suggest I do?" At this point, the father, who had remained silent, places a hand firmly on the man's shoulder and tells him, "You f*** her again."

Joke #16

Cancel Your Credit Card

Be sure and cancel your credit cards before you die. This is so priceless, and so, so easy to see happening, customer service being what it is today.!!!

Now some people are really stupid!!!!

A lady died this past January, and Citibank billed her for February and March for their annual service charges on her credit card, and added late fees and interest on the monthly charge. The balance had been $0.00, now somewhere around $60.00. A family member placed a call to Citibank. Here is the exchange:

Family Member: 'I am calling to tell you she died in January.'

Citibank: 'The account was never closed and the late fees and charges still apply.'

Family Member: 'Maybe, you should turn it over to collections.'

Citibank: 'Since it is two months past due, it already has been.'

Family Member: So, what will they do when they find out she is dead?'

Citibank: 'Either report her account to frauds division or report her to the credit bureau, maybe both!'

Family Member: 'Do you think God will be mad at her?' (I really liked this part!!!!)

Citibank: 'Excuse me?'

Family Member: 'Did you just get what I was telling you - the part about her being dead?'

Citibank: 'Sir, you'll have to speak to my supervisor.' (Duh!)

Supervisor gets on the phone:

Family Member: 'I'm calling to tell you, she died in January.'

Citibank : 'The account was never closed and late fees and charges still apply.' (This must be a phrase taught by the bank!)

Family Member: 'You mean you want to collect from her estate?'

Citibank: (Stammer) 'Are you her lawyer?'

Family Member: 'No, I'm her great nephew.' (Lawyer info given)

Citibank: 'Could you fax us a certificate of death?'

Family Member: 'Sure.' (Fax number is given )

After they get the fax:

Citibank: 'Our system just isn't setup for death. I don't know what more I can do to help.'

Family Member: 'Well, if you figure it out, great! If not, you could just keep billing her. I don't think she will care.'

Citibank: 'Well, the late fees and charges do still apply.'(What is wrong with these people?!?)

Family Member: 'Would you like her new billing address?'

Citibank: 'That might help.'

Family Member: ' Odessa Memorial Cemetery , Highway 129, Plot Number 69.'

Citibank: 'Sir, that's a cemetery!'

Family Member: 'What do you do with dead people on your planet???

(Priceless!!)

well i sent back burnout paradise. wasnt as fun as i thought it would be.

then as i hoped i got Batman:Arkham Asylum. This game is awesome. remote controlled batarangs. kick-ass martial arts skills. detective mode really helps in finding people and ways to move around the map. like the vents.

i should have another joke tomorrow.

my old phone was pretty freakin gay it went to some pages slow, sent texts slow, MADE texts slow and even mixed some of the letters up. it also felt like everytime i flipped it open it would snap in half. which is what i felt like doing to it almost everyday.

this new phone is still a flip phone but it does every aforementioned things ten times better. if only it had a camera.

and as some of you know my ipod was recently stolen. it feels so weird without. i did alot of things with it. i had a few birthday reminders in there, i used the notes to remember things. and not to mention all the funny videos and music i had on it.

i have to use my old mp3 player. this one was like my very first one.

it looks like this but blue.

http://www.gizmowatch.com/entry/clip-on-dn-clmp128-mp3-player

i wish i at least had an ipod shuffle if i have to have something like that. i cant use all the stuff i got on itunes on the blue thing. but this will be another problem that can be solved with a job.

until the next blog

yes i know devastating isnt it. i let my friend use it and he said he put it in my backpack. he even let me check through his stuff so he cud prove he wasnt lying. and his pockets. im hoping that i can at least get a job to get 2 this time. a 16GB ipod touch and a 120GB Ipod classic. (memory stingy ). all the stuff i had on my ipod is on my computer. Which means i dont have to purchase anything from Itunes twice so i dont have to spend anymore than 600 (wow did i just say that, god thats alot)

Needless to say im mad and sad. its gonna be wierd without it but on the brightside im getting a new phone soon. my current one is dyslexic or something.

nuthin new to tell you about except that i beat bioshock. very fun

and now the joke.

0 to 200 in 6 seconds

Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was
really pissed.

She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the
driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE !!"

The next morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke
up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box
gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway.

Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought
the box back in the house.

She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.

Bob has been missing since Friday.

i dont know how many updates i made. and i dont feel like checking. so lets just call this Update the first one. (laziness ftw ). Well im sending back the two games i got from gamefly tomorrow. it turns out i didnt get Halo 3along with Afro Samurai. I got Soul Calibur IV with Afro Samurai. I guess i changed the game order at the last second and forgot .

I was gonna try and get the completionist Acheivement from Afro Samurai. It's an instant 200 gamerscore. but i got stuck on the boss in like the 7th level and said forget it. i got a good 400-500 gamerscore so whatever. Same with Soul Calibur IV. Got 400-500 gamerscore for playing that game. I've also been borrowing games from friends and family.

I got Fight Night Round 3 from my cousin, and Devil May Cry 4and BioShockfrom my friend. all 3 are very fun. Ive provided links for most games in this blog in case you guys want to look up things forthem.

As for the job. yeah still jobless for now. I need to getsome money or something because my membership expires on October 25th.

Until the next update, Cya.

Well havent been making a blog in a while again. im going to officially give myself a title. Achievement Freak.

my gamer card(which is somewhere on my profile) has increased from about 2500 gamerscore to about 5200 in almost two months. having plenty of fun with my 360. and if you want to friend request me my gamercard should be on my profile page somewhere.

heres the joke

Cyanide Please

A lady walked into a drugstore and told the pharmacist she needed some cyanide right away. The pharmacist naturally was concerned by such a request and asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?"

The lady then explained that she needed it to poison her husband. The pharmacist's eyes got big and he said, "I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband! That's against the law! I'll lose my license. They'll throw both of us in jail and all kinds of bad things will happen! Absolutely not! You cannot have any cyanide!"

The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.

The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, "Well, now. You didn't tell me you had a prescription."

i know i havent made a blog in a while but this is just an update.

well as most of you know i got a 360 sometime ago. its working perfectly. the controller just disconnects out of nowhere sometimes though. i think its the brand of batteries. itll disconnect 3 times in a row but the battery meter will say 3 bars. (panasonic sucks for batteries.)

as for gamefly. i just sent back GOW 2 and dbz burst limit. the next games are halo 3 and afro samurai. (a lot of people i know have halo 3 so that probably wont go back anytme soon. )

but i will need a job quicker than a cheetah on speed (rimshot ). Halo 3 odst cost 60 bucks for now. if i want to BUY halo 3 and halo3 odst thats 100 dollas. a years membership 50 bucks. 4000 microsoft points 50 or more. most games i want 20-60 dollars. im going to wait until i turn 16 before applying to anything. i have a better chance that way.

The 12th joke.

Here Ya Go

A little 5- year old boy walked in one night and caught his parents in the act. He immediatly asked his mom wat she was doing jumping on top of his dad. his mom, trying to keep him innocent, replyed "you see your father has gotten kinda fat so i am jumping on top of him to make him skinny again" and the little boy answered "dont even bother mom" curious the mom replyed, "what do you mean honey?" and to this the little boy replyed: "you see your jumping on top of him to make him skinny again but every morning when you leave for work the girl next door comes, gets on her knees, and blows him back up.... so dont even bother mommy..."

The 100 Year old Twins

Twin sisters in St. Luke's Nursing Home were turning one hundred years old. The editor of the local newspaper told a photographer to get over there and take pictures of the two 100 year old twins.

One of the twins was hard of hearing and the other could hear quite well. Once the photographer arrived he asked the sisters to sit on the sofa.

The deaf sister said to her twin, "WHAT DID HE SAY?"

"WE GOTTA SIT OVER THERE ON THE SOFA!", said the other.

"Now get a little closer together," said the cameraman.

Again, "WHAT DID HE SAY?"

"HE SAYS SQUEEZE TOGETHER A LITTLE."

So they wiggled up close to each other. "Just hold on for a bit longer, I've got to focus a little," said the photographer.

Yet again, "WHAT DID HE SAY?"

"HE SAYS HE'S GONNA FOCUS!"

With a big grin the deaf twin shouted out, "OH MY - BOTH OF US?"

Like I said in my previous blog my gamertag is Mariner12. i can play online now. the next two games i should be getting are Soulcalibur IV and Halo 3. i currently have martvel ultimate alliance and gears of war 2 (gears is from gamefly.)

I got an xbox 360 today!

i didnt buy a game with it. but i didnt have to. it came with marvel ultimate alliance and forza motorsport 2.

plus with gamefly and ill have enough games to last me until i buy soulcalibur IV ($20)

speaking of gamefly i got kingdom hearts re chain of memories and gears of war 2.

i got both games on the 20th of august and i sent back kingdom hearts already. i beat it in a combined 22 hours (combined meaning both riku and sora's story)

i wont be online a lot if at all. the ethernet cord i got with it doesnt reach the router from my entertainment center. so i either have to do some rearranging or buy a longer ehternet cord. but im still happy

My gamertag is Mariner12 for anyone who wants to add me. there should be my gamercard somewhere on my profile. but if you cant find it click here

im glad i finally went up a level but i heard some bad things about this certain level. what's so bad about it again?

My tenth joke.

But before the joke comes some news. As some of you know ive been saving up for an XBOX 360 for some time now. snce the last update i had $182 going toward it. there should be a price cut for the elite by the end of the month. my mother took $75 out of my savings and put it in my checkings boosting the saved money to $262. i only need 40-55 dollars to get the actual system. the games will be handled by gamefly until i can buy one to keep or i can just keep it when it comes from gamefly.

Heres the Joke

The Stella Awards

It's time once again to review the winners of the Annual "Stella Awards." The Stella Awards are named after 81 year-old Stella Liebeck of New Mexico who spilled hot coffee on herself and successfully sued McDonald's. That case inspired the Stella awards for the most frivolous, ridiculous, successful lawsuits in the United States. Here are this year's winners:

7th Place: Kathleen Robertson of Austin, Texas, was awarded $80,000 by a jury of her peers after breaking her ankle tripping over a toddler who was running inside a furniture store. The owners of the store were understandably surprised at the verdict, considering the misbehaving little toddler was Ms. Robertson's son.

6th Place: 19-year-old Carl Truman of Los Angeles won $74,000 and medical expenses when his neighbor ran over his hand with a Honda Accord. Mr. Truman apparently didn't notice there was someone at the wheel of the car when he was trying to steal his neighbor's hubcaps.

5th Place: Terrence Dickson of Bristol, Pennsylvania, was leaving a house he had just finished robbing by way of the garage. He was not able to get the garage door to go up since the automatic door opener was malfunctioning. He couldn't re-enter the house because the door connecting the house and garage locked when he pulled it shut. The family was on vacation, and Mr. Dickson found himself locked in the garage for eight days. He subsisted on a case of Pepsi he found, and a large bag of dry dog food. He sued the homeowner's insurance claiming the situation caused him undue mental anguish. The jury agreed to the tune of $500,000.

4th Place: Jerry Williams of Little Rock, Arkansas, was awarded $14,500 and medical expenses after being bitten on the buttocks by his next door neighbor's beagle. The beagle was on a chain in its owner's fenced yard. The award was less than sought because the jury felt the dog might have been just a little provoked at the time by Mr. Williams, who had climbed over the fence into the yard and was shooting it repeatedly with a pellet gun.

3rd Place: A Philadelphia restaurant was ordered to pay Amber Carson of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, $113,500 after she slipped on a soft drink and broke her coccyx (tailbone). The beverage was on the floor because Ms. Carson had thrown it at her boyfriend 30 seconds earlier during an argument.

2nd Place: Kara Walton of Claymont, Delaware, successfully sued the owner of a night club in a neighboring city when she fell from the bathroom window to the floor and knocked out her two front teeth. This occurred while Ms.Walton was trying to sneak through the window in the ladies room to avoid paying the $3.50 cover charge. She was awarded $12,000 and dental expenses.

1st Place: This year's runaway winner was Mrs. Merv Grazinski of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Mrs. Grazinski purchased a brand new 32-foot Winnebago motor home. On her first trip home, (from an OU football game), having driven onto the freeway, she set the cruise control at 70 mph and calmly left the drivers seat to go into the back & make herself a sandwich. Not surprisingly, the RV left the freeway, crashed and overturned. Mrs.Grazinski sued Winnebago for not advising her in the owner's manual that she couldn't actually do this. The jury awarded her $1,750,000 plus a new motor home. The company actually changed their manuals on the basis of this suit, just in case there were any other complete morons around.

for those of you who are wondering why the sudden change of mind its because the elite is facing a price cut as early as august 30th. down to 300. the only reason i wasnt getting a 360 before was because tthe elite was too much and the pro has more chance of getting RROD (red ring of death) than the elite. to be exact:

360 PRO:30% chance of RROD

360 ELITE: 10% chance of RROD

the reason there is sech a difference is because of the cooling sysytems. the ELITE has an upgraded cooling system compared to the PRO.

to Macrules: was your 360 a pro or an elite? your answer will give me more to go on.

My mom got me a gamefly memebership so now i can get whatever games i want. i got a 2 games at once membership. the first two games that are shipping are gears of war 2 and kingdom hearts re chain of memories.

if you guys wanna suggest games to put in my list u can i got like 14 games in there so far, and im looking for good games to play.

Yeah you read the title right.

Apparently best buy was selling 52 inch TV's for just $9.99! The story was posted on the yahoo main webpage. The article said that best buy was selling a 52 inch tv for $10. and i guess a lot of people bought that tv. Best buy quickly realized the problem and changed the price back to $1,799.00 which is around half the price it would normally sell for at $3,399.00.

What about the people who already bought the tv's you ask? Well best buy seeing this huge mistake didnt honor the price posted on the webpage. They gave everyone who ordered the $10 tv's a refund. And apparently because of this there shares went down by 27 cents for a grand total of $36.50 per share.
