For a couple years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep, not enough
sunshine, too much pressure from my job, earwax buildup, poor blood or
anything else I could think of.

But now I found out the real reason:

I'm tired because I'm overworked.

Here's why:. . ..

The population of this country is 273 million.

140 million are retired.

That leaves 133 million to do the work.

There are 85 million in school.

Which leaves 48 million to do the work.

Of this there are 29 million employed by the federal government.

Leaving 19 million to do the work.

2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama
Bin-Laden.

Which leaves 16.2 million to do the work.

Take from that total the 14.8 million people who work for state and city
governments.

And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals.

Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.

That leaves just two people to do the work.

You and me.

And there you are, sitting on your ass, at your computer, reading jokes.

Nice. Real nice.

Three Rednecks were working high up on a cell phone
tower - Cooter, Pete and KC.

As they start their descent, Cooter slips, falls off the
tower and is killed instantly.

As the ambulance takes the body away, Pete says, "Well,
damn, someone should go and tell his wife."

KC says, "OK, I'm pretty good at that sensitive stuff, I'll
do it."

Two hours later, he comes back carrying a case of Budweiser.

Pete says, "Where did you get that beer, KC?"

"Cooter's wife gave it to me," KC replies.

"That's unbelievable, you told the lady her husband was dead
and she gave you beer?"

Well, not exactly", KC says. "When she answered the door,
I said to her, 'You must be Cooter's widow'."

She said, "You must be mistaken, I'm not a widow."....
then I said "I'll bet you a case of Budweiser you are."

Rednecks Are Good At Sensitive Stuff.
