Top 10 PUNny Lines from the International Pun Contest

*The ability to make and understand puns is considered to be the highest
level of language development. Here are the 10 first place winners in the
International Pun Contest:*

1.  A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons.  The
stewardess looks at him and says, "I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed
per passenger."

2.  Two fish swim into a concrete wall. One turns to the other and says,
"Dam!"

3.  Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the
craft.  Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can't have your
kayak and heat it too.

4.  Two hydrogen atoms meet.  One says, "I've lost my electron." The other
says, "Are you sure?" The first replies "Yes, I'm positive."

5.  Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root
canal?  His goal: transcend dental medication.

6.  A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in
the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories.  After about an
hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse.  "But
why?", they asked, as they moved off.  "Because," he said, "I can't stand
chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer."

7.  A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption.  One of them goes to a
family in  Egypt  and is named "Ahmal." The          other goes to a family
in  Spain ; they name him "Juan."  Years later, Juan sends a picture of
himself to his birth mother.  Upon receiving the picture, she tells her
husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal.  Her husband
responds, "They're twins!  If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."

8.  A group of friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened
up a small florist shop to raise funds.  Since everyone liked to buy flowers
from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was
unfair.   He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not.  He
went back and begged the friars to close.  They ignored him. So, the rival
florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to
"persuade" them to close.  Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store,
saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop. Terrified, they did so,
thereby proving that only Hugh can prevent florist friars.

9.  Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which
produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little,
which made him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad
breath.  This made him (Oh, man, this is so bad, it's good) a super
calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

10. And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to
friends, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh.
