We did this a long time ago here but for the life of me I can't find it!
Joke one: (horrible)
What do you call a bunch of rabbits in a line that hop backwards at the same time? A receding hairline.
joke 2:
NASA and the Dine
About 1966 or so, a NASA team doing work for the Apollo moon mission took the astronauts near Tuba City. There the terrain of the Navajo Reservation looks very much like the lunar surface. Among all the trucks and large vehicles were two large figures that were dressed in full lunar spacesuits.
Nearby a Navajo sheep herder and his son were watching the strange creatures walk about, occasionally being tended by other NASA personnel. The two Navajo people were noticed and approached by the NASA personnel. Since the man did not know English, his son asked him who the strange creatures were. The NASA people told them that they were just men that were getting ready to go to the moon. The man became very excited and asked if he could send a message to the moon with the astronauts.
The NASA personnel thought this was a great idea so they rustled up a tape recorder. After the man gave them his message, they asked his son to translate. His son would not.
Later, they tried a few more people on the reservation to translate and every person they asked would chuckle and then refuse to translate. Finally, with cash in hand someone translated the message, "Watch out for these guys, they come to take your land."
Joke 3 (but not really a joke just a funny quote) from Lame Deer Seeker of Visions (a book I'm reading)
Some background info-in this portion of the book he is a sheep hearder (Woolies is what he calls sheep) and he's a native american trying to read English through the bible. He's putting his thoughts on the English language.
" 'And Shem begat Uz and Uz begat Lud and Lud begat Mash and Mash begat Nush.' Begat! Begat! Begat! All of those ancient hebrews I gathered were sheepherders like me. With all that Begetting who in the hell was watching the Woollies?"
You're turn (but your stuff will be funnier than mine!
)
