My friend just sent me this, I am quoting it word for word.

Two old men were sitting on a porch in the deep south, just rockin' their chairs and watchin' the cars go by. A hound dog sat between them, busily cleaning his privates as dogs do, by liberal use of his tongue. One old man looked down at the dog and then over at his friend, chuckled, and said, "You know, if I was able to do that, I think I'd be the happiest man alive." His friend did a bit of a double-take, staring at the other old man like he was crazy. "Well," he replied, "go ahead and try it, but that dawg'll bitecha."

On little Timmy's 5th birthday, his father came home and sat Timmy on his knee. "Son," he said, "you're five today and you've grown so much. What would you like for your birthday?"
"Oh, daddy," said Timmy, with all the sincerity of a five-year-old, "can I have a pink polka-dot ping pong ball?"
"That's...a strange thing to ask for," replied his bewildered father. "Why don't I get you nice soccer ball instead? I'm sure that'll be a lot more fun."
"OK," said Timmy, "thank you daddy."
Fast forward. It's Timmy's 10th birthday now, and again his father is wondering what the slightly-less-little Timmy would like.
"Well daddy," says Timmy, "I want a pink polka-dot ping pong ball."
"Uh huh..." mutters his bewildered father, "why don't I get you a new bike instead? I noticed your old one is getting a bit too small for you."
"That sounds good too, daddy," says Timmy happily, thank you."
Timmy's 15th birthday found him with his father in a similar scenario. "You're growing up so fast, Timmy, and I'm very proud of you." Timmy's father felt a growing sense of deja vu. "Is there anything special you'd like for your birthday?"
"You know, dad, I'd really like a pink polka-dot ping pong ball."
Timmy's father decided he hadn't heard that. "I noticed you enjoy some video games, and it doesn't seem to have hurt your grades, so I'll get you that new xbox thingy, OK?"
Timmy smiled. "That's great dad, thanks."
Fast forward again. Now it's Tim's 20th birthday and once again, his father is having a difficult time deciding on the perfect gift.
"I'd really love a pink polka-dot ping pong ball, dad," responds Tim when queried.
Tim's father has by now resolved to ignore his son's singular oddity. "Well son," he says, somewhat prepared for the yearly ritual, "you've been doing well off at college, working at the same time, and I know it's not easy. You know the family business has been doing really well lately, I can afford to get you whatever you want."
Really, dad," replies Tim, touched by his father's generosity, "all I want is a pink polka-dot ping pong ball."
"I know!" cries his father in a flash of desperate insight, "I'll get you a nice car so you have an easier time getting around. Maybe it'll make your life a bit easier."
"That's so kind of you dad, thank you."
Shortly before Tim's 25th birthday, he fell ill. When he didn't recover he was hospitalized. The doctors ran every test they could think of, but they all came back negative. Meanwhile, Tim's condition steadily deteriorated.
Very early in the morning of Tim's 25th, his doctors called in Tim's father to tell him that Tim was unlikely to live through the night.
Determined to be with his son through the final hours, Tim's father walked quietly into the hospital room.
"Hi dad," said Tim, "not going to be long now, is it?"
"The doctors don't think so, son. I love you with all my heart. Is there anything I can do to put you at ease?"
"Dad, you've given me everything I've ever needed. All I've ever wanted was a pink polka-dot ping pong ball.
"I've never asked Tim, because it seemed so odd, by do you so badly want a pink polka-dot ping pong ball?"
Tim gazed at his father for a moment, as if considering, then drawing a deep breath said, "well dad, I've always wanted one so I could eeegghhhh.........."

So, Ghandi was a great man, a spiritual leader and inspiration to billions, but there's some things about him I bet you haven't considered. For one: he walked. A lot. As such the bottom of his feet were probably all crusty and hard from that walking. For another, all that fasting took a lot out of him. Finally, all that fasting probably made his breath less-than-fresh (not a disparagement, just an observation). You may be asking yourself now, what does all this analysis get us?

This is about an inch ______ correct? 12 inches make a foot. A ruler could be a foot. A queen is a ruler. Queen Elizabeth is ruler and an ocean liner. Ocean liners sail over seas. Seas have fish in them. Fish have fins. The Finns fought the Russians in a war. Another name for the Russians is Reds.
So fire trucks are red because they are always rushing aroung.

I don't get the "Tan! Tan!" joke, unless the joke is that there is no punch line, like the ping pong joke.
"Why are fire trucks red?"
I heard this version:
A fire truck has 4 wheels and 8 firefighters. 4 + 8 is 12. 12 inches is a foot. A foot is a ruler. Queen Elizabeth is a ruler. The Queen Elizabeth is one of the largest ships on the seven seas. Seas have fish. Fish have fins. The Finns fought the Russians. The Russians are red. Fire engines are always rushin'.
Therefore fire engines are usually red!
My joke:
A Chinese teak wood merchant named Chan noticed that his stock was disappearing every night.
He sprinkled flour near his door to catch the footprints of the thief. In the morning there were tiny little footprints, as of a small child.
That night he stayed up to catch the boy who was stealing from him, but when the intruder showed up, it was a ferocious bear! Snarling, he grabbed armfuls of the teak wood and started to run away. That's when Chan noticed the bear ran on two legs, and had small human feet instead of paws.
Arising from his hiding place, he cried out, "Stop! Boyfoot bear with teaks of Chan!"

I always heard this one:
There were two talking muffins sitting in an oven. The oven was on, so it was hot. One muffin looked at the other and said, "It's really hot in here."
The other muffin exclaimed, in amazement, "Whoa! A talking muffin!"

The replacing of cookies with muffins, the added note of the oven actually being on, the deft description of the muffin turning to the other, as well as noting the amazement of the muffin being addressed all make the "Oven Joke: Muffin Edition," far superior to the original cookie effort.
Couple that with the reduced G rating down from a PG-13 that the cookie version gleaned and everybody leaves the theatre happy!

rivka wins the thread by far.
I'd take the credit, but that's just how I learned it. (Well, except it was a pizza place instead of a hotdog stand, but that doesn't really matter much.)

A man is driving down the highway when he sees a turtle and a professional saxophonist crossing the street. Seeing that a collision is inevitable the driver swerves, narrowly missing the turtle and slamming full on into the saxophonist. When asked why he swerved and hit the saxophonist, the man replied, "Well, I didn't want to hit the turtle, because I thought he might actually be on his way to a playing gig! I knew the saxophonist wasn't!"

Two brothers Butch and Percy, were good friends. One day Percy went up to Butch and said, "I'm going on a big vacation. Could you take care of my cat Simone?"
Butch shrugged his shoulders. "Sure." Butch didn't talk much.
A week later, Simone, and about 50 pounds of various toys, foods, medicines, and assorted junk were left with Butch, and Percy ran off on a cruise to Jamaica.
Two days later Percy decided to call home and check on things.
Percy: Hi Butch, how are things? Butch: OK. Percy: Great. I'm having a lot of fun, and I got some great gifts for Simone. How is he? Butch: Dead.
Percy was stunned. He then wept and said, "Butch, that was...was...just the worst way to say that. Why, why did you have to say it like that. Dead. I'm on vacation and you just say, 'dead'. Its too much a shock for my system." Butch: Oh. Sorry. Percy: Not good enough. Next time something like this happens, you have to ease me into it. You could have told me that he was out playing with his favorite toy, that little red rubber ball. And the next time I called you could have told me he fell off the roof while playing with his red rubber ball, but that the Vet was taking care of him. Then, the third time I called, I would have been prepared, and you could have told me that he was dead. Butch, can't you show just a little sympathy? Can't you show just a little understanding.
Butch: Sorry. Percy: I know. Ok. So. How is Mom? Butch: Um. She's on the roof playing with her red rubber ball...

This is a joke my music teacher once told me when I told him it wasn't me that was off rhythm in a song, it was the rest of the band.
A woman is listening to the news on the radio when she hears about a crazy driver on the wrong side of the road on the highway her husband takes to get home from work. She immediately calls her husband.
"Honey, I heard on the news that there's a crazy driver on the wrong side of the road where you're driving right now!"
"One car on the wrong side of the road?!?! You should see how many there are!"
