I got a pup here a few months ago, not a boxer - a husky mix.  They guessed she was 4 months old (was a stray at the shelter) so we’re just about reaching the 6 month mark.

The thing that is saving my sanity? The local dog park.  Not only is it great socialization with dogs of all ages and sizes, but she loves all the people - kids and adults alike.  Plus, it’s 3.5 acres of free-running.  I can’t come anywhere near beating that.

Good luck with the pup - they’re life-changers; you’ll never look at your house the same again. wink

Tempting… but no.  The shelter named her Elka, and since my first dog ever was an Elkhound, it seemed like a rather fortuitous name.

We had a dog, but it didn’t have a nose.

Okay I’m confused now. I thought you were doing the usual joke.

My dog’s got no nose.

How does it smell?

Awful.

Perhaps I got the wrong end of the stick, sorry!

Yes I was…


Right Ellis Labs - unless you bring out EE2 before the 3G iPhone then we are going to flood these boards, well this thread at least, with really bad jokes.
Here we go:

Went to the paper shop - it had blown away.
I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day but I couldn’t find any.
I bought some HP sauce the other day. It’s costing me 6p a month for the next 2 years.
Last night I dreamed I ate a ten-pound marshmallow, and when I woke up the pillow was gone.
Police arrested two kids yesterday, one was drinking battery acid, the other was eating fireworks.  They charged one and let the other one off.


There’s more where that came from - so when’s it coming out???

Simon you should be locked away for those jokes. Our bloomin’ British humour eh? wink

Don’t know if Americans get HP sauce do they? Actually the whole of my Dad’s family used to work in the HP factory in Birmingham many years ago.

Here’s one for you.

There’s an Englishman, Irishman, Scotsman and a Lady. All are standing on a cliff. The Scotsman says to the lady “I’d do anything for you dear lady”, She says “Jump off that cliff” - he does and dies. The Irishman says I’d do anything for you dear lady, She says “Jump off that cliff” - he does and dies. The Englishman says “I’d do anything for you dear lady”, She says “Jump off that cliff” - he says “No ladies first” wink Boom Boom!!

Right I’m off before I get slapped for that one. In fact I will deny all knowledge of typing that and say that someone has taken over my account.

Cheers,

The Awful Joker

Nice on eMark.


A woman told her doctor, ‘I’ve got a bad back.
‘The doctor said, ‘It’s old age.
‘The woman said, ‘I want a second opinion.
‘The doctor says,
‘OK. you’re ugly as well. ‘

Update on the name - I think we’re going for Roxy…I liked the name Rocky as a) it’s one my favourite films and b) she’s a boxer, but she’s also a she so it’s the next best thing.
