That is the opening line to a joke with a genre all its own. Here are a dozen I found at various sites around the web.
1. An amnesiac walks into a bar and asks the bartender, "Do I come here often?"

2. A guy with dyslexia walks into a bra.

3. A young Texan walks into a bar and orders a drink. "Got any ID?" asks the bartender. The Texan replies, "About what?"

4. A pair of jumper cables walk into a bar. The bartender says, "You can come in here, but you better not start anything!"

5. A penguin walks into a bar and asks the bartender, "Has my father been in here?" The bartender says, "I don't know. What does he look like?"

6. A termite walks into a bar and asks, "Is the bar tender here?"

7. A cheeseburger walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve food in here."

8. A dog with his foot wrapped in a bloody bandage hobbles into a Western saloon. He sidles up to the bar and announces: "I'm lookin' fer the man that shot my paw."

9. A skeleton walks into a bar. The bartender asks, "What'll you have?" The skeleton says, "Give me a beer, and a mop."

10. A polar bear, a giraffe and a penguin walk into a bar. The bartender says, "What is this, some kind of joke?"

11. A guy walks into a bar in Cork, in Ireland, and asks the barman: "What's the quickest way to get to Dublin?" "Are you walking or driving?" asks the barman. "Driving," says the man. "That's the quickest way," says the barman.

12. René Descartes is in a bar at closing time. The bartender asks him if he'd like another drink. Descartes says, "I think not," and he disappears.

Not really. This is the stuff that entertains me. Seeing the silly stuff on the web - the number of sites that contain stupid and/or amusing content. On occasion, amusing only to me, perhaps. Not trying to act offended, really, just admitting that internet crap like this amuses the hell out of me.

Naked blonde walks into a bar with a poodle under one arm, and a two-foot salami under the other. The bartender says, I guess you won't be needing a drink. Naked lady says...

I've been waiting 22 years to hear the punchline this one.

A Grasshopper walks into a bar and orders a drink. Bartender says, "You know there's a drink named after you, huh?"

Grasshopper says, "They named a drink "Steve"?

Heheh... good one, considering I don't usually find Family Guy all that funny.

A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel attached to his crotch.

Bewildered, the bartender says "Pardon me, cap'n, but did you know that you've got your ships wheel stuck to your crotch??"

"Aaarrr! ", the pirate replies. "It's drivin' me nuts."

Random Thoughts While Stuck in Traffic

There's a serious traffic jam on the 495 Washington beltway that I happen to be stuck in. It's worse than stop & go, stop & go - it's more like stooooooop & go, stoooooooooooop & go. Trying to stay awake, my mind is wandering, giving me images and sounds. Go »

I'll Have The Misogyny Au Gratin, Please

We were having dinner with my nephew the other night and the conversation steered toward his numerous relationships.
