The Funny Farm |
Dear Readers, Firefighter Brothers and Sisters world wide are renowned for their sense of humour. They see, hear, and on occasions get involved in some crazy incidents so the Bugler dedicates this section to them. This Chapter is named ‘The Funny Farm’ to reflect the antics of some of the clowns who are currently in charge of Fred Karnos Lancashire FRS… To provide a smile, a chuckle, or a laugh to lighten the daily burden, but not to hurt or insult the innocent is the objective. The guilty, well they are fair game and will, if the cap fits, wear it… All contributions are welcome(swearing and crudity, best avoided) and because the Bugler is Irish do not hesitate; it is a mighty Nation of Citizens who can laugh at themselves…and to others… your contributions are also timeless…keep them coming…particularly my chums in OK! The Bugler salutes in particular disabled FSV-J.Hogan one of the Band of Brothers dedicated to ‘ungluing’ of the LFRS and setting standards of decency for Lancashire Freemasons of which he was a proud Member who has stayed the course through thick and thin and sadly some serious illnesses, but still he trenched on… Sadly the Bugler now records that his old friend and fighting comrade… Senior Divisional Officer James (Jimmy) Hogan He was a decent man… Requiescant in Pace. |

I’ve taught more than 260 people to fly and given rides to hundreds, so I guess I am a pilot, and you, what are you? She said, ‘I’m a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about naked women. As soon as I get up in the morning, I think about naked women. When I shower, I think about naked women. When I watch TV, I think about naked women. It seems everything makes me think of naked women.’ The two sat sipping in silence.

The Mexican woodpecker expressed confidence that he could do it and accepted the challenge. The two of them flew to Canada where the Mexican woodpecker successfully pecked Both woodpeckers were now terribly confused.
