'...NEVER buy a memory foam mattress if you cheat on your spouse.'
 
A plane leaves Los Angeles airport under the control of a Jewish captain.

His copilot is Chinese. It’s the first time they’ve flown together, and an awkward silence between the two seems to indicate a mutual dislike.

Once they reach cruising altitude, the Jewish captain activates the auto-pilot, leans back in his seat, and mutters, ‘I don’t like Chinese.’

‘No rike Chinese?’ asks the copilot, ‘….why not?’

‘You people bombed Pearl Harbor, that’s why !’

‘No, no,’ the co-pilot protests, ‘Chinese not bomb Peahl Hahbah! That Japanese, not Chinese.’

‘Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese… doesn’t matter, you’re all alike!’

There’s a few minutes of silence.

‘I no rike Jews either!’ the copilot suddenly announces.

‘Oh yeah, why not?’ asks the captain.

‘Jews sink Titanic.’

‘What? That’s insane! Jews didn’t sink the Titanic!’ exclaims the captain, ‘It was an iceberg!’

‘Iceberg, Goldberg, Greenberg, Rosenberg …no mattah… all same.’
 
Here's a Tassie joke.

An old man lived alone in Tasmania. He wanted to dig his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, Jase, who used to help him, was in prison.

The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.
Dear Jase,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I wont be able to plant my potato garden this year; Im just getting to old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me.
Love Dad.


A few days later he received a letter from his son.
Dear Dad,
For heavens sake, dont dig up that garden, thats where I buried the BODIES.
Love Jase.


At 4A.M. the next morning, the Federal Police and local police showed up and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologised to the old man and left.

The same day the old man received another letter from his son.
Dear Dad.
Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. Its the best I could do under the circumstances.
Love Jase.
 
This little old lady goes to the doctor and says,
"Doctor I have this problem with passing gas, but it really doesn’t bother me too much. It never smells and it’s always silent. As a matter of fact I’ve passed gas at least 20 times since I’ve been here in your office. You didn’t know I was passing gas because it doesn’t smell and it’s silent."

The doctor says "I see. Take these pills and come back to see me next week."

The next week the lady goes back.
"Doctor, I don’t know what you gave me, but now my passing gas… although still silent, it stinks terribly."

"Good", the doctor said, "now that we’ve cleared up your sinuses, we’ll start to work on your hearing."

Another Tassie folklore. It's true ...

Finally, sick of the stress in the city Ray quits his job and buys 50 acres of land in the hills in Tasmania as far from humanity
as possible.
He sees the postman once a week and gets groceries once a month. Otherwise it's total peace and quiet.
After six months or so of almost total isolation, someone knocks on his door. He opens it and a huge, bearded man is standing there.
'Name's Cliff, your neighbour from forty miles up the road. Having a Christmas party Friday night. Thought you might like to come at about 5:00...'
'Great', says Ray, 'after six months out here I'm ready to meet some local folks Thank you.'
As Cliff is leaving, he stops. 'Gotta warn you. Be some drinking'.'
'Not a problem' says Ray, 'After a lifetime working in the city, I can drink with the best of 'em'.
Again, the big man starts to leave and stops. 'More 'n' likely gonna be some fighting' too.'
'Well, I get along with people, I'll be all right! . I'll be there. Thanks again.'
'More'n likely be some wild sex, too,'
'Now that's really not a problem' says Ray, warming to the idea. 'I've been all alone for six months! I'll definitely be there... By the way, what should I wear?'
'Don't much matter. Just gonna be the two of us.'
 

Spiced-up astronomical tale a case of expert just being a silly sausage​

A French scientist has apologised after he tweeted a close-up photo of a slice of chorizo alongside a caption suggesting the image had been taken by the James Webb Telescope.

"This level of detail … a new world is revealed every day," tweeted Etienne Klein, a director at France's Atomic Energy Commission, suggesting the image showed Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the Sun.

Photo de Proxima du Centaure, l’étoile la plus proche du Soleil, située à 4,2 année-lumière de nous.
Elle a été prise par le JWST.
Ce niveau de détails… Un nouveau monde se dévoile jour après jour. pic.twitter.com/88UBbHDQ7Z
