Newfies and stanzas/jokes.



How many Newfies does it take to make
Chocolate chip cookies?
Four.
One to make the dough.
Three to peel the smarties….


How to make a one-armed Newfie
Fall out of a tree?  
Wave at him.


Two Newfies hitch hiking
Decide to separate on the freeway.
Better their chances.
One up ahead not doing so well
Thirty minutes pass.
Up comes second guy in
Beautiful sports car.
How did you get that car, Chuck?
Well, yasee, up comes the Camaro with
A beautiful stacked blonde driving.
Low cut dress, wafting perfume.
She jumps out of the car.
Tears off most of her clothes.
Says, All that I have is yours…


So I took the car.

There follows a cataract of laughter.
Yassuree. Meboy.
