Being a triathlete is tough

Thanks to Matt for sending this to me…I really enjoyed it:

A man was out jogging in the forest one day when a frog called out to him and said “if you kiss me I will turn into a beautiful princess” he bent down and picked the frog up and put it is his pocket.

The frog spoke up again and said “if you kiss me and turn me back into a beautify princess I will tell everyone how smart and brave you are and hoe you are my hero” The man took the frog out of his pocket smiled and return the frog to his pocket.

The frog spoke up again and said “if you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I’ll stay with you for a year and do anything you want” Again the man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and put it back in his pocket.

Finally the frog asked, “whats the matter? I’ve told you I’m a beautify princess and that ill stay with your for a year and do anything you want. Why wont you kiss me?”

The man replied, “look I’m a triathlete. I don’t have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog is cool.”

I was recently shown this clip on youtube. It’s a South African dude doing an awesome impression of Hugh Bladen, one of the most passionate rugby commentators in the world. Hugh’s fans will be sure to appreciate it.

Best comeback line ever

I think that this is probably the best comeback line I have ever heard:

Marine Corps General Reinwald was interviewed on National Public Radio (NPR) by a female broadcaster. General Reinwald was about allow a Boy Scout Troop to visit his unit and the Marines were planning on giving them an introduction to the defence force and firearms:

Female Interviewer: So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?
General Reinwald: We’re going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting.
Female Interviewer: Shooting! That’s a bit irresponsible, isn’t it?
General Reinwald: I don’t see why, they’ll be properly supervised on the rifle range.
Female Interviewer: Don’t you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?
General Reinwald: I don’t see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.
Female Interviewer: But you’re equipping them to become violent killers.
General Reinwald: Well, Ma’am, you’re equipped to be a prostitute, but you’re not one, are you?

The radio went silent and the interview ended.

Gotta love Marines!!
