A man is waiting for wife to give birth. The doctor comes in and informs the
dad that his son was born without torso, arms or legs. The son is just a
head! But the dad loves his son and raises him as well as he can, with love
and compassion. After 21 years, the son is old enough for his first drink.
Dad takes him to the bar and tearfully tells the son he is proud of him.
Dad orders up the biggest, strongest drink for his boy. With all the bar
patrons looking on curiously and the bartender shaking his head in
disbelief, the boy takes his first sip of alcohol. Swoooop! A torso pops
out!
The bar is dead silent; then bursts into a whoop of joy. The father,
shocked, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant "Take another
drink"! The bartender still shakes his head in dismay.
Swoooop! Two arms pops out. The bar goes wild. The father, crying and
wailing, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant, "Take another
drink"! The bartender ignores the whole affair. By now the boy is getting
tipsy, and with his new hands he reaches down, grabs his drink and guzzles
the last of it. Swoooop! Two legs pop out.
The bar is in chaos. The father falls to his knees and tearfully thanks God.
The boy stands up on his new legs and stumbles to the left.... then to the
right.... right through the front door, into the street, where a truck runs
over him and kills him instantly.
The bar falls silent. The father moans in grief. The bartender sighs and
says, "That boy should have quit while he was a head."

Grooooan!
That's a 'good' bad joke though.
A fave of mine lately is about the couple who are awaken in the middle of
the night by someone pounding on the door. The guy gets up and answers the
door to see a drunk standing there, in the pouring rain. The drunk says,
"Can you help me, I need a push"? The man says, "Are you crazy, it's 4 in
the morning and pouring down with rain". He slams the door and goes back to
bed.
The man's wife asks what happened, he explains and she gets pissed off.
That's not very Christian of you, she says, don't you remember when we were
broken down a while ago and those two nice young men came and helped us
out.......of course, she guilts her old man into getting up to help the
drunk.
The man goes outside into the rain and yells into the dark, "Do you still
need a push"? the reply comes out of the darkness "Yes".
"Where are you then, I can't see ya", the man yells. He waits for a second,
then the drunk replies, "Over here, on the swing"!
