Mellon Center

Westin Bonaventure Hotel


Cesar Chavez and Spring. I was going straight east on Cesar Chavez when that bus made a left turn on to Cesar Chavez on a red light. Then, it kept moving towards the right to pick up passengers and stopped on the corner of Cesar Chavez and Spring. That stupid bus driver made me hit that yellow road sign. Damn him!


My bike revisiting the scene of the accident


This is the road sign that I hit with my bike. As mentioned in my prior post entitled "Stupid Bus Drivers!", a stupid bus driver made a left turn at a red light right in front of me. It then stopped to pick up bus riders right at the corner. I had a green light going east on Cesar Chavez. If I had kept going straight, I would have been squashed by that dumb bus.

I was going about 30 mph downhill and braked hard, but still kept skidding right into that road sign. Now, it's bent. I wonder if I should sue the Metro Bus line for negligence. Fortunately, I am okay, but I could have been killed!

A Cock Story

A priest in a small rural town was very fond of the 10 chickens
and 1 handsome cock rooster he kept in a hen house behind the rectory.

One Saturday night, the priest discovered that the cock rooster was
missing. At the same time the priest heard rumors of cockfights
being held in town. Shocked and dismayed, he decided to say
something during Sunday Mass.

During Mass, he asked the congregation, "Who among you will
confess to sporting a handsome cock?"

All the men stood up.

No, No", he said. "That's not what I mean. Who among you
will confess to having seen a handsome cock?"

All the women stood up.

"Oh no!" he said. "That's not what I mean, either. Who among
you will confess to having seen a cock that doesn't belong to you?"

Half the women stood up.

"Oh Lord," he said. "Perhaps I should rephrase the question:
Has anybody seen my cock?"

All the choirboys stood up.........................

The Hypnotist

It was entertainment night at the senior center and the Amazing Andy was topping the bill. People came to the senior center from miles around to see the famed hypnotist do his stuff. As Andy went to the front of the meeting room, he announced, "Unlike most hypnotists who invite two or three people up here to be put into a trance, I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience."

The excitement was almost electric as Andy withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat. "I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very special watch. It's been in my family for six generations." He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting, "Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch." The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed the swaying watch, until, suddenly, it slipped from the hypnotist's fingers and fell to the
floor, breaking into a hundred pieces!!!!

SHIT!" exclaimed the hypnotist.

It took three weeks to clean up the senior center.

Divorce Joke of the Day

Thanks to Kelly Chang, Esq., Family Law Attorney, for this joke submission.


A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation to Jerusalem.

While they were there, the wife passed away.

The undertaker told the husband, "You can have her shipped home for
$5,000, or you can bury her here, in the Holy Land, for $150."


The man thought about it and told him he would just have her shipped home .


The undertaker asked, "Why would you spend $5,000 to ship your wife
home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend
only $150?"


The man replied, "Long ago a man died here, was buried here ,and three
days later, he rose from the dead."


He continued: "I just can't take that chance...

Stupid Buses!

On Sunday, I biked to church. I saw the L.A. Bike Tour in Downtown L.A. I biked with some of the cyclists for a couple blocks. There was a sea of cyclists so it was tough crossing over to the other side of the street. Andy Nagai rode in the L.A. Bike Tour. I loved how the streets were all blocked off. I could blow through all the intersections without worrying about any cars.

On my way back home, I crashed into a traffic sign, because a stupid bus made a left turn right in front of me at an intersection. The bus was heading south on Broadway Street when it made a left on to Cesar Chavez on a red light. Then it stopped a short distance away at the intersection of Spring Street right in front of me to pick up busriders. I was tearing down Cesar Chavez going east when I saw that the bus was about to cut me off. I squeezed the brakes, but I kept sliding forward and went right into an island in the road. I slammed into a yellow street sign with my right shoulder and back. My rear wheel bent a little bit and my bike chain came off, but otherwise I was okay. I was more mad than anything else. Stupid bus driver! You can still see the bent yellow traffic sign at the southwest corner of Cesar Chavez and Spring Street in Downtown Los Angeles. Now, I need to get my wheels trued.

I had a hard time going home since I was sore and tired. My biggest problem was the sunscreen and sweat that kept dripping into my eyes. My nose kept running and I had my eyes closed for half my ride home. That was a tough and long ride back home. From now on, I'm not putting sunscreen on my face and arms.

Bart, I hope you learned your lesson.


Yoda is right. Luke, that's just nasty!

Napoleon Dynamite!



I bet you can pull sweet jumps off that bike!


Finally, a trail for mountain biking only. No stupid whining hikers and stinky horseriders.

Amazing how some of the letters stay afloat without being on the sign.


No, Obi Wan. That was not your destiny. . .


One day I hope to open my own office.

Pho King



Surprisingly, this place does better than Panda Express. Must taste really good.

Irish Viagra

An Irish woman of advanced age visited her physician to ask his help in reviving her husband's libido.

"What about trying Viagra? Asks the doctor.

"Not a chance," she said. "He won't even take an aspirin."

"Not a problem," replied the doctor. "Give him an 'Irish Viagra. It's when you drop the Viagra tablet into his coffee. He won't even taste it. Give it a try and call me in a week to let me know how things went."

It wasn't a week later that she called the doctor, who directly inquired as to progress.

The poor dear exclaimed, "Oh, faith, bejaysus and begorrah! 'Twas horrid! Just terrible, doctor!"

"Really? What happened?" asked the doctor

"Well, I did as you advised and slipped it in his coffee and the effect was almost immediate. He jumped straight up, with a twinkle in his eye, and with his pants a-bulging fiercely! With one swoop of his arm, he sent the cups and tablecloth flying, ripped me clothes to tatters and took me then and there, took me passionately on the tabletop! It was a nightmare, I tell you, an absolute nightmare!"

"Why so terrible?" asked the doctor, "Do you mean the sex your husband provided wasn't good?"

"'Twas the best sex I've had in 25 years! But sure as I'm sittin' here, I'll never be able to show me face in Starbucks again!"

Potential and Reality

A kid comes home from school with a writing assignment. He asks his father for help. "Dad, can you tell me the difference between potential and reality?"

His father looks up, thoughtfully, and then says, "I'll demonstrate. Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars. Then go ask your sister if she would sleep with Leonardo DiCaprio for a million dollars. Then come back and tell me what you've learned."

The kid is puzzled, but decides to ask his mother. "Mom, if someone gave you a million dollars, would you sleep with Brad Pitt?"

"Don't tell your father, but yes, I would."

He then goes to his sister's room. "Sis, if someone gave you a million dollars, would you sleep with Leonardo DiCaprio?"

She replies, "Omigod! Definitely!"

The kid goes back to his father. "Dad, I think I've figured it out. Potentially, we are sitting on two million bucks, but in reality, we are living with two sluts."

710

What's a 710?

Yesterday I was having some work done at the car dealer. A blonde woman came in and asked for a seven-hundred-ten.

They all looked at each other, and one of the mechanics asked, "What is a seven-hundred-ten?"

She replied, "You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine. I lost it and need a new one. It had always been there."

The mechanic gave the woman a piece of paper and a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like.

She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710. He then took her over to another car which had the hood up and asked, "Is there a 710 on this car?"

She pointed and said, "Of course, it's right there."
