The world's toughest cowboy. Three cowboys are sitting around a campfire, out on the lonesome prairie, each with the bravado for which cowboys are famous. A night of tall tales commences.

Why, just the other day, a bull got loose in the corral and gored six men before I wrestled it to the ground, by the horns, with my bare hands." The second chimes in, "Why that's nothing. I was walking down the trail yesterday and a fifteen foot rattler slid out from under a rock and made a move for me. I grabbed that snake with my bare hands, bit its head off, and sucked the poison down in one gulp. And I'm still here today." The third cowboy remained silent, slowly stirring the coals with his penis.

Jesus is hanging on the cross and calls out to one of his apostles... "Peter, Peter!" Jesus cries. Peter, down at the bottom of the Calvary hill, hears his lord's call and runs as fast as he can toward the sound of the voice. He ducks and weaves through the crowd until he's spotted by a Roman soldier. The soldier cuts Peter's left arm off and kicks him back down the hill. Jesus calls out again, his voice weakening "Peter, Peter." Though weak himself from his injury, Peter gets to his feet and begins up the hill again. Peter makes it past the first soldier and a bit farther up the hill when a second Roman soldier cuts off Peter's other arm and kicks him back down the hill. Peter lays, bleeding out, when he hears the weakening voice of Jesus yet again. "Peter... Peter" Jesus beckons. Peter musters his strength and stands. He begins his third attempt at climbing the hill. The first soldier is occupied and doesn't notice Peter. The second soldier is busy beating another man. But when Peter is just about to reach the foot of the cross a third soldier draws his sword and cuts off Peter's left leg and kicks him back down the hill. Peter, now nearly dead, hears Jesus call out one last time. Now just a whisper, Jesus calls "Peter..... Peter...." Peter, now looking more like a snake than a man, begins slithering his way back up the hill on his belly. The first, second, and third soldiers take no notice of Peter while he slowly makes his way through the blood and the mud. Peter can feel his strength waning as he finally reaches the top of the hill. Peter collapses at the foot of the cross and calls out to his lord "my lord Jesus, Why dost thou beckon me?" Jesus gazes down upon his faithful apostle and says "Peter, Peter... I can see your house from up here."

Two guys and a girl become shipwrecked on a deserted island... ...but fortunately there is plenty of food and fresh water. Over the next few months, they build a little community: all three craft little huts out of sticks and leaves, and they fairly split up all the tasks and chores essential to their survival. They even build a little church where they go to pray every Sunday. But after a little while, everyone gets, well, restless. To be blunt, they're all horny and have no sexual outlets. Being devoutly religious people, pre-marital sex is out of the question. So, they come up with a system. The woman marries one of the men for a week, then gets a divorce and marries the other man for a week. They just go back and forth like this. This way, each of the guys get seven days full of sex every other week, and the girl gets laid whenever she wants. This situation works out great, and their three-person community is thriving. But after eight months of this, the woman gets bit by a poisonous snake and dies. The first week is really rough. The second week is even worse. The third week is just plain terrible. The fourth week is practically unbearable. So on the fifth week, they decide to bury the body.

Three cowboys are sitting around a campfire out on a lonesome Texas prairie, each with the bravado for which cowboys are famous. A night of tall tales begins. The first one says, "I must be the meanest, toughest cowboy there is. Why, just the other day a bull got loose in the corral and gored six men before I wrestled it to the ground by the horns with my bare hands." The second cowboy can't stand to be bested. "Why that's nothing. I was walking down the trail yesterday and a fifteen-foot rattlesnake slid out from under a rock and made a move for me. I grabbed that snake with my bare hands, bit its head off and sucked the poison down in one gulp. And I'm still here today." The third cowboy remained silent, staring into the fire, silently stirring the coals with his dick.

John and Larry were out hunting one day. John went into the bushes to take a leak, and a moment later he screamed and came stumbling out. "A rattlesnake bit me!" he yelled. "Got me right on the wang!" Larry took out his cell phone and called 911, and they in turn switched him to poison control. A doctor got on the line and Larry said, "My friend just got bit by a rattlesnake! What should I do?" "First of all, stay calm," said the doctor. "Do you have a pocket knife?" "Yes." "Good. You'll have to locate the two fang marks." "Check." "Take your knife and make a shallow incision right across the marks." "Okay." "Then put your lips over the incision and suck. Keep it up for a minute or so. That should get all the venom out, and your friend will be fine." "Gotcha, thanks!" He hung up and went over to John. "What did the doctor say?" asked John. "He said you're going to die."

Two guys and a snake .... This is a true story. Two good friends, Jerry and Ralph, were out walking in the desert one day when Jerry goes off behind a cactus to take a leak. While he's draining his bladder a snake leaps up and bites him on the end of his dick. Ralph on hearing Jerry's scream runs over and says, "What happened?" Jerry, who's starting to feel some numbness creeping up along his member explains that a snake bit him on the end of his dick. "What kind of snake?", Ralph inquires. "I don't know, spotted ... with flecks of orange, red on it .... fuck, does it matter? Just call a doctor and hurry. I feel like shit." So Ralph moves off and pulls out his cell and calls his doctor explaining the situation. The doctor asks, "Did you get a good look at the snake?" Ralph repeats what Jerry said to which the doctor replied, "Oh my, that's a very poisonous snake. You have to get the venom out as quickly as possible or your friend will die." "How do I do that?" asked Ralph. "You're going to have to suck it out with your mouth", the doctor instructed. "Okay, okay. Thanks Doc", Ralph responds as he quickly hangs up and runs over to his friend Jerry. Jerry has deteriorated quite a bit by now and is starting to sweat and shake uncontrollably. He sees Ralph running up and in a weakened, anxious voice asks "So? What did the doctor say?" Ralph looks at his friend and replies "He said you're gonna die." (A variation on an oldie but goldie joke)
