In the UK, saying "Keep your pecker up!" means keeping your chin up. In the U.S., that's a completely different matter. Roll Eyes

Wooooooohoooooooo!

"Pene", aside from being short for "Pen�lope" (Tom's gal of the month), means "Penis" Big Grin

Hey Richard, 2 cents is about 2.2 �urocents at todays exchange rate.

JP, does the phrase "keep yer pecker down" exist in England?

How curious!
Here I've been told an slightly different version of Arnie's joke; it skips the woman being a nymphomaniac, she's just a doctor on sexology, who has recently completed a study on penises; finding that the thickest and longest ones were those of the Arabs and the Basques respectively, and so immediately after learning that the man says: "oh! excuse me, let me introduce myself, Abderraman Zubizarreta."

Hey madsue, rule #1 of message board etiquet, "It is never too late to post or revive an old thread" Big Grin

"Try not to call anyone penis for more than 1 week straight" is actually rule #1,537 Eeker Wink

Could have been worse, the situation could have been reversed (a Spaniard learning an English name), his name could have been "Clint" Red Face

Can't believe I'm joining what must be the most bizarre (and informative) thread going . . . Big Grin Big Grin But its reminded me of my favourite line from the play/movie Shirley Valentine, by Willy Russell:

(Scene: Four young women sitting in a bar discussing the clitoris)
Shirley: When I was younger I thought it was pronounced Cli-tohr-is.
Friend: That sounds nicer that. Like it could be a name.
Shirley: Oh yeah. Like Lady Cli-tohr-is Smith. "Hi Cli-tohr-is, how are you doing?" . . . Well why not? How many men do you know called Dick?

Wink


Glory, glory to the hibees . . .

Un abogado de Washington DC esta cazando patos en los altiplanos de Nuevo Mexico. Levanta su escopeta, dispara, y cae un pato, pero al otro lado de la muralla que separa el coto de caza con un campo agricultural.

El abogado empieza a subir la muralla cuando el campesino dice, "no puedes entrar, es propriedad privada. Ademas, acabo de sembrar la tierra y no quiero que usted pise la semillas."

El abogado dice que es un abogado muy poderoso y va a recoger su pato. Si no, ira a las cortes y sacara todas las posesiones del campesino.

El campesino dice "pues viene un juez cada cuatro meses. Usted tendra que esperarle, o volver en unos meses. Ademas, tenemos otros modos de resolver problemas, la dichosa 'Ley the los Tres Golpes'. Usted tiene el reclamo, entonces le doy tres golpes con el pie. Despues, usted me de tres golpes con el pie, hasta que se concede uno de nosotros."

El abogado piensa "este viejo no me parece muy fuerte, y voy al gimnasio." Dice "de acuerdo!"

El campsino viene al abogado, y le da golpes de pie sucesivos en las rodillas, el estomago, y las nalgas, hasta se cae el abogado en la tierra, cara abajo.

El abogado se levanta, furioso. Dice, "ahora es mi turno, y te voy a matar con los tres golpes."

En este momento, el campesino dice, "bueno, yo concedo, recoge su pato." Big Grin

Three men, an Italian, a Frenchman and a Spaniard went for a job interview in England.

Before the interview, they were told that they must compose a sentence in English with three main words: green, pink and yellow.

The Italian was first:
"I wake up in the morning. I see the yellow sun, I see the green grass and I think to myself, I hope it will be a pink day."

The French was next:
"I wake up in the morning, I eat a yellow banana, a green pepper and in the evening I watch the pink panther on TV."

Last was the Spaniard:
"I wake up in the morning, I hear the phone "green... green...", I pink up the phone and I say "Yellow?"

Wink Red Face :jeje:
