I bought a new imported Ford F250 Tri-Flex Fuel Truck...
Go figure... it runs on either hydrogen, gasoline, or E95
I returned to the Dealer yesterday because I couldn't get the radio to work.
The service technician explained that the radio was voice activated.

'Nelson,' the technician said to the radio.
The radio replied, 'Ricky or Willie?'
'Willie!' he continued and 'On The Road Again' came from the speakers.
Then he said, 'Ray Charles!', and in an instant,' Georgia On My Mind' replaced Willie Nelson.
I drove away happy, and for the next few days, every time I'd say, 'Beethoven, 'I'd get beautiful classical music, and if I said, 'Beatles,' I'd get one of their awesome songs.
Yesterday, some guy ran a red light and nearly creamed my new truck, but I swerved in time to avoid him...
I yelled, “Frigging Idiot”

Immediately, the radio responded with

"Ladies and gentlemen, an address from the Leader of the Opposition, Bill Shorten."


Damn, I love this truck...

Hassy, if you're going to tell a joke, don't change the wording to suit your political slant. Taking out the punch line

"Ladies and gentlemen, an address from the Prime Minister Malcolum Turnbull"

and subbing Leader of the Opposition, Bill Shorten causes your joke to fall flat.

Here's an oldie.

The Prime Minister, the Governor General, a Priest and a Boy Scout are in a spluttering light plane AT 10,000 feet up, when the Pilot announces:

"The planes developed engine trouble, we are going to CRASH!"..."We've got 2 minutes to jump out."..."unfortunately we only have 4 parachutes and I've got one, every man for himself!" The Pilot jumps out.

The 4 in the back don't know what to do.

The Governor General screams "I am the Queens representative, I deserve to live!" Grabs a parachute and jumps out.

The Prime Minister screams " I am the brains of the country, I deserve to live!" grabs a parachute and jumps out.

The Priest says to the Boy Scout. "There is only one parachute left my son, you have it, you deserve to live."

The Boy Scout says to the Priest. "Don't worry Father, we will both be okay, we will both live"

"How can that be my boy?"

"Well, Father the brains of the country just grabbed MY HAVERSACK!"

Paul,

It makes no difference to the joke at all, just as your substituting
Prime Minister for Bob Hawke doesn't alter your oldie either.

Your right Issy, I think it was The Silver Bodgie in the original joke. Thanks for jogging my memory.

Dear Paul,

You might enjoy this pedantic joke:

Otto and Beata give birth to a young child.

This is impossible, because a baby cannot be
born as a young child, therefore the previous
sentence is rendered void and should be corrected.

I apologise on behalf of myself, and myself only,
for the major yet forgiveable mistake. (Smile).

The previous sentence corrected, maybe.

"This is a silly joke , but..."
