Safe Sex
A teenage boy and his grand-
father go fishing one day.
While fishing, the old man
starts talking about how
times have changed.
The young man picks up on
this and starts talking about the various problems and diseases going around.
Teen says, “Grandpa, they didn’t have a whole lot of problems with all these diseases when
you were young did they?”Grandpa replies, “Nope.”Teen says, “Well, what did you guys use
for safe sex?”Grandpa replies, “A wedding ring.”
Pathan has a Pass: One fine day, a bus driver went to the bus garage, started his

vantage of poor conductor. Finally he could stand it no longer. He signed up for body build-
