->> Was just watching the local news and they said Canon in Japan was turning off it's lights and heat around 5pm, so people would go home and make babies. For it seems that the birth rate in Japan is dropping.
Insert you bad Canon jokes here...
Canon wants to see what develops.
or
Talk about a kodak moment.... |

->> Canon seems to be actually in the birth control business.
Every time I mention getting new camera gear to my wife, she threatans to make me sleep on the couch.

->> This better not get me an OT. But this joke is too perfect for this thread.
The Smiths were unable to conceive children and decided to use a surrogate father to start their family. On the day the proxy
father was to arrive, Mr. Smith kissed his wife goodbye and said, 'Well, I'm off now. The man should be here soon .'
Half an hour later, just by chance, a door-to-door baby photographer happened to ring the doorbell, hoping to make a
sale. 'Good morning, Ma'am', he said, 'I've come to...'
'Oh, no need to explain,' Mrs. Smith cut in, embarrassed, 'I've been expecting you.'
'Have you really?' said the photographer. 'Well, that's good. Did you know babies are my specialty?'
'Well that's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a seat'.
After a moment she asked, blushing, 'Well, where do we start?' 'Leave everything to me. I usually try two in
the bathtub, one on the couch, and perhaps a couple on th e bed. And sometimes the living room floor is fun.
You can really spread out there.'
'Bathtub, living room floor? No wonder it didn't work out for Harry and me!'
'Well, Ma'am, none of us can guarantee a good one every time. But if
we try several different positions and I shoot from six or seven angles, I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results.'
'My, that's a lot!', gasped Mrs. Smith.
'Ma'am, in my line of work a man has to take his time. I'd love to be In and out in five minutes,
but I'm sure you'd be disappointed with that.'
'Don't I know it,' said Mrs. Smith quietly.
The photographer opened his briefcase and pulled out a portfolio of
his baby pictures. 'This was done on the top of a bus,' he said.
'Oh, my word!' Mrs. Smith exclaimed, grasping at her throat.
'And these twins turned out exceptionally well - when you consider
their mother was so difficult to work with.'
'She was diffi cult?' asked Mrs. Smith.
'Yes, I'm afraid so. I finally had to take her to the park to get
the job done right. People were crowding around four and
five deep to get a good look'
'Four and five deep?' said Mrs. Smith, her eyes wide with amazement.
'Yes', the photographer replied. 'And for more than three hours,
too. The mother was constantly squealing and yelling - I
could hardly concentrate, and when darkness approached I had to rush my
shots. Finally, when the squirrels began nibbling on my equipment, I just
had to pack it all in.'
Mrs. Smith leaned forward. 'Do you mean they actually chewed on
your, uh...equipment?'
'It's true, Ma'am, yes.. Well, if you're ready, I'll set-up my
tripod and we can get to work right away.'
'Tripod?'
'Oh yes, Ma'am. I need to use a tripod to rest my Canon on. It's much too
big to be held in the hand very long.'
Mrs. Smith fainted. |

| ->> Well here in America were trying to opposite approach. We going the slow the birth rate, with condoms and abortion through planned parenthood. This will stimulate the economy by saving States from wasting money on kids that parents cant support. I just wonder who is going to be around to pay off the huge debt we are going to be racking up. |
