Friday Joke - something topical

I have resisted the temptation to be topical and post a large stack of Jacko jokes, about him tripping over prams and blaming it on the buggy; being recycled into any number of childrens toys; about asking the ambulance man to take him to the childrens ward etc etc. I figure you've heard them all already anyway...

So here is something that is always topical if you live in Norway.


A father walks into a restaurant with his young son. He gives the young boy 3 pennies to play with to keep him occupied while he goes to order.

Suddenly, the boy starts choking, going blue in the face.The father realizes the boy has swallowed the pennies and starts slapping him on the back.

The boy coughs up 2 of the pennies, but keeps choking. Looking at his son,the father is panicking, shouting for help.

A well dressed, attractive, and serious looking woman, in a blue business suit is sitting at a coffee bar reading a newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At the sound of the commotion, she looks up,puts her coffee cup down, neatly folds the newspaper and places it on the counter, gets up from her seat and makes her way,unhurried, across the restaurant.

Reaching the boy, the woman carefully drops his pants; takes hold of the boy's testicles and starts to squeeze and twist, gently at first and then ever so firmly.. After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the last penny, which the woman deftly catches in her free hand.

Releasing the boy's testicles, the woman hands the penny to the father and walks back to her seat at the coffee bar without saying a word.

As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no ill effects, the father rushes over to the woman and starts thanking her saying, "I've never seen anybody do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a doctor? "

'No,' the woman replied. I am a Tax Collecter
