~Mississippi Blonde~ (2nd time around)
(Plus: Today in History, Word for the Day and 6 Differences.)

Mississippi Blonde A very attractive blonde woman from Mississippi arrived in Las Vegas and bet twenty-thousand dollars ($20,000) on a single roll of the dice. She said, "I hope y'all don't mind, but I feel much luckier when I'm completely nude." With that, she stripped from the neck down, rolled the dice and yelled, "Come on, baby, Mama needs new clothes!"

As the dice came to a stop she jumped up and down and squealed..."YES! YES! I WON, I WON!" She hugged each of the dealers and then picked up her winnings and her clothes and quickly departed. The dealers stared at each other dumfounded. Finally, one of them asked, "What did she roll?" The other answered, "I don't know - I thought you were watching."

Moral - Not all Mississippians are stupid and not all blondes are dumb, but all men are men. ***
