Super Bowl Tickets For 2017
A friend of mine has two tickets for the 2017 Super Bowl in Houston on February 5th. They are box seats that include airfare and hotel accommodations.
He didn’t realize when he bought them that this is the same day as his wedding – so he can’t go.
If you’re interested and want to go instead of him, it’s February 5, 2017, at St Peter’s Church in New York City at 5 p.m.
Her name is Kim. She will be the one in the white dress.

Wittle Wabiths
An adorable little girl enters a pet shop and asks in the sweetest little lisp, “Excuthe me, mithter, do you keep wittle wabiths?”
The shopkeeper gets down on his knees, so he can be on her level, and asks, “Do you want a wittle white wabby or a soft and fuwwy bwack wabby?”
Putting her hands on her knees, the little girl bends forward and says, “I don’t fink my pyfon gives a fuck”.
Top Ten Marketing Screw-Ups
1. Coors put its slogan, “Turn it loose,” into Spanish, where it was read as “Suffer from diarrhea.”
2. Scandinavian vacuum manufacturer Electrolux used the following in an American campaign: “Nothing sucks like an Electrolux.”
3. Clairol introduced the “Mist Stick”, a curling iron, into German only to discover that “mist” is slang for manure. Not many people had use for the “manure stick.”
4. When Gerber started selling baby food in Africa, they used the same packaging as in the U.S., with the beautiful Caucasian baby on the label. They later learned that in Africa, companies routinely put pictures on the label of what’s inside, since most people are unable to read.
5. Colgate introduced a toothpaste in France called Cue, the name of a notorious porno magazine.
6. An American T-shirt maker in Miami printed shirts for the Spanish market which promoted the Pope’s visit. Instead of “I saw the Pope” (el Papa), the shirts read “I saw the potato” (la papa).
7. Pepsi’s “Come alive with the Pepsi Generation” translated into “Pepsi brings your ancestors back from the grave”, in Chinese.
8. Frank Perdue’s chicken slogan, “It takes a strong man to make a tender chicken” was translated into Spanish as “It takes an aroused man to make a chicken affectionate.”
9. The Coca-Cola name in China was first read as “Ke-kou-ke-la”, meaning “Bite the wax tadpole” or “female horse stuffed with wax”, depending on the dialect. Coke then researched 40,000 characters to find a phonetic equivalent “ko-kou-ko-le”, translating into “happiness in the mouth.”
10. When Parker Pen marketed a ball-point pen in Mexico, the ads were supposed to have read, “It won’t leak in your pocket and embarrass you”. Instead, the company thought the word “embarazar” (to impregnate) meant to embarrass, so the ad read: “It won’t leak in your pocket and make you pregnant.”
Bug Spray Salesman
An insect repellent salesman, travelling through the countryside, came to a farmhouse and tried his pitch on the farmer.
“Sir,” he said, “my bug spray works so well that I guarantee you will never be bitten again.”
The farmer was skeptical, so he made the young man a proposition. “I’ll tie you out in my cornfield buck naked, covered with that bug spray” said the farmer. “In the morning, if there isn’t a single bite on you, I will buy a whole case from you.”
The salesman was delighted. They went out to the cornfield and he striped. The farmer then sprayed him thoroughly with the bug spray and tied him to a stake.
The next morning, the farmer went back out to the cornfield and, sure enough, the salesman was there, hanging from his bonds, without a single bite on him. Not one bite, and yet he was a total wreck, looking pale, haggard and drawn.
The farmer was perplexed. “Son,” he said, “you don’t have one bite on you and yet you look like hell. What the devil happened?”
“For crying out loud, mister,” the salesman gasped, “doesn’t that calf have a mother?!?!”

Wanting It Both Ways
Hal Hooper started the day early, having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN) for 6am.
While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA) was perking, he shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN HONG KONG).
He put on a dress shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA), designer jeans (MADE IN SINGAPORE) and tennis shoes (MADE IN KOREA).
After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet (MADE IN CHINA), he sat down with his calculator (MADE IN MEXICO) to see how much he could spend today.
After setting his watch (MADE IN TAIWAN) to the radio (MADE IN CHINA), he got in his car (MADE IN GERMANY) and continued his search for a good paying AMERICAN JOB.
At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day, Hal decided to relax for awhile.
He put on his sandals (MADE IN BRAZIL), poured himself a glass of wine (MADE IN FRANCE), turned on his TV (MADE IN INDONESIA), then wondered why he can’t find a good paying job in…..AMERICA
