One night a police officer was staking out a particularly rowdy bar for possible DUI violations.
At closing time, he saw a fellow tumble out of the bar, trip on the curb, and try his keys in five different cars before he found his.
Then he sat in the front seat fumbling around with his keys for several minutes.
Everyone else left the bar and drove off. Finally he started his engine and began to pull away.
The police officer was waiting for him. He stopped the driver, read him his rights and administered the Breathalyzer test.
The results showed a reading of 0.0.
The puzzled officer demanded to know how that could be.
The driver replied ,
"Well to night I'm the designated decoy"

One day, Mr. Phillard rushed his pregnant wife over to the hospital. As the doctors were prepping his wife, Mr. Phillard's idiot brother Bill arrived to watch the birth. But when Mr. Phillard saw the blood and everything else, he fainted. When Mr. Phillard woke up he was in a bed with the doctor standing above him.
"Mr. Phillard," the doctor said, "you are in the recovery room. Don't worry, your wife is fine and she had twins, a boy and a girl. Because you were unconscious and your wife was still under anesthesia, she requested that your brother Bill name the kids."
"What! My brother, the idiot! I can't believe you let him! What did he name them?"
"He named your daughter Denise."
"Hey, not bad! I underestimated my brother. What did he name my son?"
"He named your son Denephew."

For several years, a man was having an affair with an Italian woman. One night, she confided to him that she was pregnant.
Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage, he paid her a large sum of money so she would go to Italy to secretly have the child.
If she stayed in Italy to raise the child, he would also provide child support until the child turned 18.
She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby is born.
To keep it discrete, he told her to simply mail him a post card, and write 'Spaghetti' on the back.
He would then arrange for the child support payments to begin.
One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife.
"Honey," she said, "you received a very strange post card today."
"Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it later," he said.
The wife did and watched as her husband read the card, turned white and fainted.
On the card it was written: "Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti. Three with meatballs, two without. Send extra sauce!"

WHY ?
Why do we press harder on a remote control
when we know the batteries are getting weak?
Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds"
when they know there is not enough?
Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars,
But check when you say the paint is wet?
Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?
Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?
Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest,
but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?
Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?
Why is it that no matter what colour bubble bath you use
the bubbles are always white?
Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?
Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator
with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?
Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?
How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?
When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle
with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so,
why do we say, "It's all right?" Well, it isn't all right,
so why don't we say, "That hurt, you stupid idiot?"
Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling
off
the table you always manage to knock something else over?
In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was
in summer when we complained about the heat?
How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

A young monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to helping
the other monks in copying the old canons and laws of the church
by hand.
He notices, however, that all of the monks are copying from
copies, not from the original manuscript. So, the new monk goes
to the head abbot to question this, pointing out that if someone
made even a small error in the first copy, it would never be picked up.
In fact, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies.
The head monk says, "We have been copying from the copies for
centuries, but you make a good point, my son." So, he goes down
into the dark caves underneath the monastery where the original
manuscripts are held as archives in a locked vault that hasn't
been opened for hundreds of years.
Hours go by and nobody sees the old abbot. So, the young monk
gets worried and goes down to look for him. He sees him banging
his head against the wall and wailing, "We missed the "R", we
missed the "R"!
His forehead is bloody and bruised and he is crying uncontrollably.
The young monk asks the old abbot, "What's wrong, father?"
With a choking voice, the old abbot replies,
"The word was CELEBRATE!"

POSSIBLY THE VERY BEST CHICKEN JOKE EVER....
A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is leaning against the headboard smoking a cigarette, with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg, looking a bit ticked off, grabs the sheet, rolls over, and says "Well, I guess we finally answered THAT question".

An older couple decides to go to the doctor for a checkup. The
doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start
writing things down to help them remember. Later that night while
watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair.
His wife asks, "Where are you going?"
"To the kitchen" he replies.
"Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"
"Sure."
"Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember
it?" she asks.
"No, I can remember it."
"Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. You'd better
write it down because you know you'll forget it."
He says, "I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream
with strawberries."
"I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that,
so you'd better write it down" she retorts.
Irritated, he says, "I don't need to write it down, I can
remember it. Leave me alone. Ice cream with strawberries and
whipped cream I got it, for goodness sake." Then he grumbles
into the kitchen.
After about 20 minutes the old man returns from the kitchen and
hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for
a moment and says -
"Where's my toast?

Words of wisdom from the corporate world.
a.. "As of tomorrow, employees will only be able to access the building
using individual security cards. Pictures will be taken next Wednesday
and employees will receive their cards in two weeks." (This was the winning quote from Fredrick Dales at Microsoft Corp. in Redmond, WA.)
b.. "What I need is a list of specific unknown problems we will
encounter." (Lykes Lines Shipping)
c.. "E-mail is not to be used to pass on information or data. It should
be used only for company business." (Accounting manager, Electric Boat
Company)
d.. "This project is so important, we can't let things that are more
important interfere with it." (Advertising/Marketing manager, United
Parcel Service)
e.. "Doing it right is no excuse for not meeting the schedule.
f.. "No one will believe you solved this problem in one day! We've been
working on it for months. Now, go act busy for a few weeks and I'll let
you know when it's time to tell them." (R&D supervisor, Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing/3M Corp.)
g.. "My Boss spent the entire weekend retyping a 25-page proposal that
only needed corrections. She claims the disk I gave her was damaged and
she couldn't edit it. The disk I gave her was write-protected." (CIO of Dell
Computers)
h.. "Teamwork is a lot of people doing what I say." (Marketing
executive, Citrix Corporation)
i.. My sister passed away and her funeral was scheduled for Monday.
When I told my Boss, he said she died on purpose so that I would have to miss work on the busiest day of the year. He then asked if we could change her burial to Friday. He said, "That would be better for me." (Shipping executive, FTD Florists)
j.. "We know that communication is a problem, but the company is not
going to discuss it with the employees." (Switching supervisor, AT&T Long Lines Division)
k.. We recently received a memo from senior management saying: "This is to inform you that a memo will be issued today regarding the memo mentioned above." (Microsoft, Legal Affairs Division)
l.. One day my Boss asked me to submit a status report to him
concerning a project I was working on. I asked him if tomorrow would be soon enough. He said, "If I wanted it tomorrow, I would have waited until tomorrow to ask for it!" (New business manager, Hallmark Greeting Cards)
m.. As director of communications, I was asked to prepare a memo
reviewing our company's training programs and materials. In the body of the memo in
one of the sentences I mentioned the "pedagogical approach" used by one
of the training manuals. The day after I routed the memo to the executive
committee, I was called into the HR director's office, and told that the
executive vice president wanted me out of the building by lunch. When I
asked why, I was told that she wouldn't stand for perverts (pedophiles?)
working in her company. Finally, he showed me her copy of the memo, with her demand that I be fired-and the word "pedagogical" circled in red. The HR manager was fairly reasonable, and once he looked the word up in his dictionary and made a copy of the definition to send back to her, he told me not to worry. He would take care of it. Two days later, a memo to the entire staff came out directing us that no words, which could not be found in the local Sunday newspaper could be used in company memos. A month later, I resigned. In accordance with company policy, I created my resignation memo by pasting words together from the Sunday paper. (Taco Bell Corporation)

In Honor of Stupid People . . . .
In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.
On a Sears hairdryer --
Do not use while sleeping.
(That's the only time I have to work on my hair.)
On a bag of Fritos --
You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
(the shoplifter special?)
On a bar of Dial soap --
"Directions: Use like regular soap."
(and that would be???....)
On some Swanson frozen dinners --
"Serving suggestion: Defrost."
(but, it's just a suggestion.)
On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) --
"Do not turn upside down."
(well...duh, a bit late, huh!)
On Marks &Spencer Bread Pudding --
"Product will be hot after heating."
(...and you thought????...)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron --
"Do not iron clothes on body."
(but wouldn't this save me time?)
On Boot's Children Cough Medicine --
"Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication."
(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could
just get those 5 year-olds with head-colds off those bulldozers.)
On Nytol Sleep Aid --
"Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(...I'm taking this because???....)
On most brands of Christmas lights --
"For indoor or outdoor use only."
(as opposed to what?)
On a Japanese food processor --

(now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)
On Sainsbury's peanuts --
"Warning: contains nuts."
(talk about a news flash)
On an American Airlines packet of nuts --
"Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."
(Step 3: say what?)
On a child's Superman costume --
"Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)
On a Swedish chainsaw --

(Oh my God..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

Farmer John lived on a quiet rural highway. But, as time went by the traffic slowly built up at an alarming rate. The traffic was so heavy and so fast that his chickens were being run over at a rate of three to six a day. So one day Farmer John called the sheriff's office and said "You've got to do something about all of these people driving so fast and killing all of my chickens."
"What do you want me to do?" asked the sheriff.
"I don't care, just do something about those crazy drivers!"
So the next day he had the county workers go out and erect a sign that read:
SLOW SCHOOL CROSSING
Three days later Farmer John called the sheriff and said, "You've got to do something about these drivers. The 'school crossing' sign seems to make them go even faster."
So, again, the sheriff sends out the county workers and they put up a new sign:
SLOW CHILDREN AT PLAY
That really sped them up. So Farmer John called and called and called every day for three weeks. Finally, he asked the sheriff, "Your signs are doing no good .... can I put up my own sign?"
The sheriff told him, "Sure thing, put up your own sign." He was going to let Farmer John do just about anything in order to get him to stop calling everyday to complain.
The sheriff got no more calls from Farmer John. Three weeks later curiosity got the best of the sheriff and he decided to give Farmer John a call. He asked, "How's the problem with those drivers? Did you put up your sign?"
Farmer John replied, "Oh, I sure did, and not one chicken has been killed since then. I've got to go. I'm very busy." He hung up the phone.
The sheriff was really curious now and he thought to himself, "I'd better go out there and take a look at that sign ...... it might be something that WE could use to slow down drivers ..." So the sheriff drove out to Farmer John's house, and his jaw dropped the moment he saw the sign. It was spray-painted on a sheet of wood:
NUDIST COLONY GO SLOW AND WATCH OUT FOR THE CHICKS

A little boy was in a relative's wedding. As he was coming down the aisle he would take two steps, stop, and turn to the crowd (alternating between bride's side and groom's side). While facing the crowd, he would put his hands up like claws and roar...
So it went, step, step, ROAR, step, step, ROAR all the way down the aisle.
As you can imagine, the crowd was near tears from laughing so hard by the time he reached the pulpit.
The little boy, however, was getting more and more distressed from all the laughing, and was also near tears by the time he reached the pulpit.
When asked what he was doing, the child sniffed and said, "I was being the Ring Bear...."

Mrs. Parks, the 6th grade science teacher, asked her class, "Which
human body part increases to 10 times its size when
stimulated?"
No one answered until little Molly stood up, angry, and said,
"You should not be asking 6th graders a question like that! I'm
going to tell my parents, and they will go and tell the
principal, and you'll get fired!" She then sat back down.
Mrs. Parks ignored her, and asked the question again, "Which
body part increases to 10 times its size when stimulated?"
Little Molly's mouth fell open, and she said to those around
her, "Boy, is she gonna get in big trouble!"
The teacher continued to ignore her and said to the class,
"Anybody?"
Finally, Jimmy stood up, looked around nervously, and said,
"The body part that increases to 10 times its size when
stimulated is the pupil of the eye."
Mrs. Parks said, "Very good, Jimmy." Then turned to Molly and
continued, "As for you, young lady, I have three things to say:
First, you have a dirty mind.
Second, you didn't read your homework.
And third, one day you are going to be VERY, VERY disappointed.

Sonny,
I have added the rest of the info from Lars' book. Let me know the date or approximate date was she named and I will add it as well. If you know when she was in the 21 TAS or have additional info on her, let me know and I will add/update as required.
--Casey
Casey,
I named her January 1968 and it was still there in Oct. 1968 when I left. I know she was in the 21st when I got to Naha in May 1967 until she was shot down in Nov 1969 (crew flying her when she was shot down was from the 41st but at that time ALL Blind Bat birds had been assigned to the 21st TAS). Thanks and that goes for all you do on this site. I really enjoy it as I know the others do.

The bartender says "Well, since it's your birthday, I'll buy you a drink. In fact, this one is on me."
As the woman finishes her drink, the woman to her right says, "I would like to buy you a drink too." The old woman says, Thank you. Bartender, I want a Scotch with two drops of water." "Coming up," says the bartender.
As she finishes that drink, the man to her left says,"I would like to buy you one too." The old woman says, "Thank you." "Bartender, I want another Scotch with two drops of water." "Coming right up," the bartender says.
As he gives her the drink he says, "Ma'am, I'm dying of curiosity. Why the Scotch with only two drops of water?"
The old woman replies, "Sonny, when you're my age, you've learned how to hold your liquor. Water, however, is a whole other issue."

The following came from an anonymous Mother in
Austin, Texas...
Things I've learned from my Boys (honest and not kidding):
1.) A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill
a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
2.) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run
over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
3.) A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200
adults in a crowded restaurant.
4.) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the
motor is not strong enough to rotate 42 pound Boy
wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape It is
strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to
spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
5.) You should not throw baseballs up when the
ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a
bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times
before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a
baseball a long way.
6.) The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't
stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7.) When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh
oh", it's already too late.
8.) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and
lots of it.
9.) A six-year old Boy can start a fire w ith a flint
rock even though a 36-year old man says they can
only do it in the movies.
10.) Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive
tract of a 4-year old Boy.
11.) Play dough and microwave should not be used in
the same sentence.
12.) Super glue is forever.
13.) No matter how much Jell-O you put in a
swimming pool you still can't walk on water.
14.) Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15.) VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even
though TV commercials show they do.
16.) Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17.) Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18.) You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19.) Always look in the oven before you turn it on;
plastic toys do not
like ovens.
20.) The fire department in Austin, TX has a
5-minute response time.
21.) The spin cycle on the
washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22.) 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the
Clorox and brake fluid.
