Why I am tired....
For a couple years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep, too much Pressure from my job, earwax buildup, poor blood, but now I found out the real reason:

We're tired because we're overworked. Here's why:
The population of this country is 273 million.

140 million are retired.

That leaves 133 million to do the work.

There are 85 million in school.

This leaves 48 million to do the work?

Of this there are 29 million employed by the federal government.

Leaving 19 million to do the work.

2.8 million are in the armed forces.

This leaves 16.2 million to do the work.

Take from the total the 14,800,000 people who work for state and city Governments.

And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals, leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.

That leaves just two people to do all the work.

You and me

... And you're sitting on your ass, at your computer, reading jokes.

You bad dog you


All these mad jokes are just too, too funny. Where are they all coming from?

From memory? If so - you must be the world's best joke teller!

Keep 'em coming.

Just goes to show you - You can make statistics show whatever you want them to!

I have seen that one before, and always liked it. Sure feels like that some days, huh?
